Baby's Own Tablets relieve these troubles,, or if given oc- casionally to the well child will pre- vent tkeir . coming on. the Tablets are guaranteed by government an- alyst to be absolutely harmless even to the newborn babe. They are es- pecially g'ood in summer because they regulate the bowels and keep the stomach sweet and pure. They are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25c a box from The Dr. Wil- liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont, AMOUNT OF PENSION PAID BY DIFFERENT COUNTRIES Compared with tke annual, pensions granted by the overseas dominions and other to their totally dis- abled married soldiers, those paid by this country cannot be said to err on the side of generosity. From the following table, which; gives the respective pensions at i glance, it will be seen that the United Kingdom comes fifth on the list: New Zealand pays each totally dis- abled married soldiers -£156 and £26 for each child under 16, - Canada -2145, and a£20 for each child under 17. Australia -2117,, and 223 fur fee first child and £13 for others under 16. United States -£112 10s., and ,225 for each child up to three under 18. United Kingdoiri-£71 10s. (plus 2(, per cent. bonus for period from No- vember, 1918, to June, 1919), and £17: los. for the first child to £10 1.0s. for others under 16. Germany -£30 to 265, from January 1919, has been increased frim 50 to 100 per cent- owing to the higher . cost of living. .-. Italy -262, and £5 ].Os., for each, child_ under 12. • France -£48, and 24 for each child. This, however, is being increased. PEARL FISHING GIVES TREMENDOUS PROFITS "For a capital of £300 it is possible to find a fortune and in arty case to make Sufficient money in a few years to retire comfortably.' This statement was made to the writer a few days ago by one of the largest precious stone merchants in London, when talking of the profits of pearl fishing. "The demand for pearls is far great- er -than the supply," he continued, `and I have advised and assisted several men, including two army officers, attracted by theta;evventure ot7 the undertaking, to try pearl fishing in the south Seas. £1.00 for passage and expenses; £80 for `a lugger, £80 for gear, crew and- stores for six months, leaving £40 for emergencies, is the total outlay. The first six months fishing should yield at least two tons of mother-of- pearl shell. This sells in a market which fluctuates between £100 and £200 a ton, and will cover all initial outlay. In addition, Of course, there is always the possibility of finding good pearls, which may be worth any- thing from £50 to £1,000 each. Pearlse not only scarce, but the prices have increased enormously since the war. but she had floated and drifting down. `the coast, had gone ashore on soft ground in a bay thirty miles away. There a settler found her and secured ..-her. His bargain was worth £25,000. Another sort of dealing in derelicts .goes on constantly at Lloyd's, Look at your newspaper and you will see cer- tain ships listed as being 'eon the over- due market." A ship that is overdue is presumably in trouble, and the underwriters who have aceepted the risk of insuring her now reinsure so as to save themselves from total loss. They, of course, pay much higher rates and the longer the ship is overdue the higher the rates rise. The premium may even reach 90 per cent., which was the case with the• big liner Bulgaria, . reported, unman- ageable and sinking of the Azores Many thousands changed hands at the��9O per cent. rate, and that even- ing came news that the ship was safe at the Azores. Fortunes had been made and lost that day. " TIRED PEOPLE ARE DEBILITATED Full Health and Strength Can AMP.*NILE• A Style of Architecture flare in the Western world. The campanile is. not found in Western Europe outside Italy, except in rare plates where Italian influence had penetrated. It is a detached. tower, standing on, a foundation Of its own, but dseociated with a build- ing, usually* a church, for which:ite bells are the announcer. The campanile i$ thus the tower complete, being fuel, an architec- tural unit, whereas other towers •sur- mounting buildings4 are but adjunct and decoration}. Being treated as a thing in itself, the icampanite is the tower come into it own, the perfected tower. - Hence the cam anile obtains a . treatment that no o dinary tower can, and becomes a thing of grace and beauty, o1 dignity and proportion. It requires heroic treatment and archi- tectural genius to be realized in a'Il its possibilities. Not every campanile is a success or as much of a success as is permitted by its mature: The most°famoua one std-n(1s.in the square 'of St. Mark's in Ve ice, rebuilt upon the site as a replica of the anccieut one which an earthquake shook down a few years ago. A good example of the campanile in America,stands in Chicago- nezt a, Roman Catholic church in the By- zantine style. It is not so ambitious as it is harmonious with the church whose bells it holds. A campanile` does not consort with a Gothic •edi- I flee or indeed with a RBnaissauce one. It is distinctly aByzantine fea- ture or anyhow a Roman one. The Byzantine building is derived from ,the ancient Roman basilica, whose arches` are 'round. The can - pantie is the natural, or originally the . necessary supplement to such a boding. Half donees or even whole ones are not discordant to the cam- panile, but Gothic" vaulting and Renaissance facades are incompatible with it.

Bay, ten miles from Swanseas, says London Tit -bits. Only two years old this fine ship ran hard aground in a fog, arid so hopeless seemed her position that she was sold as old 'iron .to a firm of metal merch- ants for £1,500. That fires sold her the same day to a salvage company for £5,000. If the salvage company floats her, as they hope to do, they will have a ship and cargo worth nearly £100,000. It's a great shame ----a great gamble, one should say -this dealing in dere- licts. .Up at Scarborough the John Ray went ashore with a cargo of. coal. The underwriters sold her hull for £88 and the coal for 39 shillings.' The man who bought the coal retrieved over 400 tons and sold it at aver a pound a.' ton. One.of the strangest_ stories of the sea is- that of the British barque Dum- friesshire. On her way to New Cale- donia from New Zealand she struck a coral reef off the New Caledonia coast. Her crew abandoned her and. were res- cued by a steamer and h khat to ouu- - rhe nea. Next morning peared. She had apP.renaly bean swung over the reef by the tide and sun.k. A few days later the under- writers received an offer by ,cable for the wreck. They laughed at any man being such a fool as to bid for a brok- en hull sunk in such a depth, but, of course, accepted. totheir After a while they heard, amazement, that the ship had come safely into harbor. . She had not been sunk at all, True, the tide had swung her off- the reef, springs of the vehicle. These rnay.
