WELL SATISFIED WITH
BABY'S OWN TABLETS
Once a mother has used Baby's
Own Tablets for her little ones she
will use nothing elec. Her use of
them leads her to believe there is no
other medicine to equal them for any
of the many minor ailments of child-
hood. Concerning them Mrs. Eugene
Boisvert, East Aldfield, Que., writes:
"Hy baby was terribly constipated,
but after the use of Baby's Own Tab-
lets he is entirely well again. I am
so well satisfied with the Tablets
that 1 lose no opportunity in recom-
mending them to other mothers."
The Tablets are sold by medicine
dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box
from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co.,

Your Grocer is
Not a Profiteer
Have a heart!
Your grocer is not a profiteer!
He is passing along to you reduced
prices, as fast or faster than they
come to him. Just because prices on
many good things are still high,
don't blame him. It is usually the
poorest quality of everything that
shows the greatest decline.
If he is as good a man as the aver-
age, your grocer is still doing his
utmost to )give you the best value
for your money. But don't push him
too hard. He is only human.
You don't know but we do, that
he is recommending goods that pay
him less profit than other well known
brands which he might easily per-
tinede his customers to take if he
cared to do so.
We know this because he pays us
more for Red Rose Tea and sells it
at less profit than other teas, so
when he recommends yon to buy
Red Rose Tea, you will know it is
because he believes it the beet and
is willing to take a little less profit
for the sake of giving you the beet
value he can.
We are publishing this because we.
believe the more our people know of
the true facts concerning the profits
Made by those they deal with, the
more generous they will be in their
judgments, -T. 11. Estabrooke Ce.,

IN THE KING'S KITCHEN
"A temple of gastronomy such as
must have delighted the hearts of
our feudal kings." Such is a descrip-
tion of 'the Royal kitchen at Windsor
Castle.
Indeed, there is•proba'bly no kitchen
in the world more asaociated with
the romance of past centuries. If
its walls could speak, 'what tales
they would tell of banquets prepared
for the feasting of long -dead kings
and their merry courtiers!
Within them were cooked dainty
dishes to tempt the appetite of our
second Henry. And since that time
--seven centuries and more ago'the
kitchen has ministered right royally
to the board of every Sovereign who
has worn the crown of Etl'gland.
Twice the third of our Henrys tried
Isis renovating liars: on it, but al-
though torches have given place to
candles. candles to gas, and gas to
electric light, and though its cttlinary
equipment has often been renewed,
King George sees his kitchen to -day
pretty much as our Plantagent Kings
saw it.
Even much of its present equipment
is hoary with age. There is a meat -
screen of oak, lined with metal, which
proudly flaunts the Tudor badge, in
honor of Heng VIII. There are two
pages, in which many a joint was
cooked for the "Merry Monarch" and
his fellow -revellers, and there are
utensils still in daily use which were
doing good service before Trafalgar
was fought.
As 'the ancient ddor opens ponder-
ously, and we enter this kitchen of
romance, our eyes are dazzled by the
glitter of the enormous copper pots
and pans which flash their ruddy fires
around the walls. It is only when
our eyes become accustomed to the
glitter that -we realize the vast pro-
portions and the vaulted dignity of
the room we.have entered.
At each end of it is an enormous
range, with a screen of oak fashioned
in Stuart days. There are four tables
solidly fashioned from beeches which
once spread their shade in Windsor
Forest. Of these, one is used for
luncheon and second -course work, an-
other for soups and sauces, and a
third for entrees, while the fourth is
reserved for the kitchenmaids, who
are responsible for all plain fish, the
steward's room and the servants'
hall.
There are stoves -miracles of mod-
ern perfection -adapted to the most
delicate crooking; a tiny range,
specially designed by the Prince Con-
sort for the roasting of game by char-
coal; and a wonderful serving -table
of hollow steel, on which the dishes
are kept hot by steam.
There are Brobdingnagian stock-
pdts Of copper, stew -pans, braising
kettles, and so on through the widest
range of cooking utensils which line
the walls in dazzling phalanxes. And
over all, the saluted roof, with its
rows of ventilating windows, rises
high as the roof of a small cathedral.
The ministers of this temple of gas-
tronomy are a small and perfectly -
trained array of master -cooks and ap-
prentices, yeomen of the kitchen, as-
sistant cooks, roasting -cooks, scour-
ers, green -office men, kitchemnaids,
and so on, each of whom, clad in spot-
Itss linen, discharges his or her duty
with the precision of a highly -trained
soldier.
Even in the thick of preparing the
largest and most elaborate Royal ban-
quet, the great kitchen machine moves
with absolute smoothness and regular-
ity. Everything is in its appointed
place.
Such smooth perfection of working
could only be ensured under the dir-
ection of a very competent chef, and
King George's chef is one of the
kings of his craft.
At eleven o'clock every morning he
makes his appearance in his oiTce,
and arranges the menu for the day.
This done, so capable and reliable is
his staff, he has nothing more to do
until the time of preparation arrives,
when he takes control of the kitchen,
and with keen eyes "everywhere at
once" sees that every course is not
only as perfect as human skill can
make it, but that it is ready to be
served at the exact moment.
Nor is his sway by any means
confined to the kitchen we have de-
scribed. There are, in addition, pas-
try and confectionery departments, to
say nothing of a bake -house and cof-
fee -room, each with its own staff of
experts who, under the chef's direc-
tion, produce the most seductive of
delicacies, from Patisserie Fondantes
to Glace a la Siamoise.
EXERCISING WHEN
ONE PASSES FORTY
Among the relatively few questions
that may be held to have been settled
for all time is not the question as to
the exercise it is necessary or advis-
able for • man to take after lie has
reached 'forty: It is recurring all
the time, very often in a tragic form.
For instance, a short time ago a promi-
nent New York citizen not far past
forty who had just played a couple
of games of handball, retired to the
rest room and there entered upon kis
eternal rent. Some doctors who were
interviewed said that his death was
plainly due to the fact thst he had
over taxed his strength at a time of
life when it is unwise or even danger-
ous to make a great demand upon tke
muscles. Other doctors pointed out
that while he had been accustomed
to exercise for some time previous
to his fatal exertions he had ne-
glected his games and that though
undoubtedly he had overdone things,
his untimely death was no argument
against men of forty and more tak-
ing exercise which is generally de-
scribed as violent by persons who
fail to exercise. One expert laid
down the law that after forty a man
should not exert himself at all. Hence
the discussion.
So far as it is safe for a layman
to make a deduction from the con-
flicting views of anpposed authorities
it would appear that the history of
eaeh person would have to be con-
sidered before a valuable opinion
could he given. On this basis one
could safely make a doable dog-
matism, namely, that one who has
been used from his youth up to exer-
cise is quite safe to continue after
1 forty :or even after forty-one; while
one who begins at the age of forty

a great risk These as too,
wosild have to be quailed. one
'has as a youth been an athlete,
thus imposing_unnetural strain upon
Ms heart, the chances are that if he
Persists in exercises of the sortshis
heart will o e day goback on him
and when t hearts put out of
bueiuess, the king of a receivership i
for the whol anatomy is only e
matter of form.
As we know, there are people who
declare, and are prepared to prove,
that anykind of meat is injurious
to the human conatitution, in face
of the fact that most ,, ,f our long-
lived progenitors fpr thousande of
years have been meat -eaters. Some
people thrive on a diet of vegetables
and cereals. Some people never take
any exercise, yet live to a ripe old
age and become famous. One who
occurs to us is Lord Salisbury. He
never wo d walk when he could
ride. He k no exercise that he
could avoid. Yet itis health was
good, his physique was sturdy and
his mentality was superior to that of
most men of Ms generation. The
late Hon. A, L Sefton, for many
years too no exercise that was
avoidable. This was because of a
heart affection, but some physicians
believe that exercise in certain forms
of heart weakness is beneficial.
Bob Fitzsimons was. forty-five
years old when he fought Jack John-
son, and a more violent form of
exercise than trying to put the Sene-
gambian out of business is difficult
to imagine. Yet Bob did not injure
himself by his exertions on this occa-
sion. Frank Kramer former cham-
pion bicyclist of the States, and one
of the finest riders of the age, is
past forty. Yet he rides regularly,
and not long ago entered in a six-
day race. Mike Donovan, for many
years the athletic instructor of the
New York Athletic Club, exercised
vigorously, even violently, until ke
was past sixty. William Muldoon is
an old man, as one would judge
from his years, but he performs daily
feats of strength and agility that
few young men could equal. Prof.
Halfpenny, well known in Toronto
several years ago, was well past fifty
yet he could afford to laugh at the
efforts of most men half his age to
beat him at boxing or fencing.
Walking is, of course, rated as an
exercise. Some say it is the best
exercise of all, hut whether it is to
be classed as violent is a question.
At any rate Edward Payson Weston
walked from seventy to eight miles
a .day after he was seventy-two, and
was walking across the continent.
Our countryman, 5fr. Reynolds, of
Port Hope, was 0 famous walker
after he was beyond sixty. How old
Mr. George Lyon is we cannot say,
but somewhat elder no doubt than
Mr. Joe Wright. Loth of them have
Leen frntnus athletes for more than
a generation and neither would sub-
scribe to the doctrine that when a
man reaches forty he ought to curl
up and get out the slipper, and let
his muscles become flabby. The fact
that now and then a man of forty
dies as the result of violent. exercise
ought no more to discourage men of
their age than the equally irrevelant
fact that often youths in their prime
put an undue strain upon some vital
organ and pay the penalty with their
lives.

GOOD HEALTH
AND GOOD SPIRITS
Depend Upon the Condition of the
Blood -Keep it Rich. Red
and Pure.
When a.doct.or tells you that you
are anaemic, he simply means, in
plain English, that your blood is
weak and watery. But this condition
is one that may easily pass into a
hopeless decline if prompt steps are
not taken to enrich the blond. Poor
blood, weak, watery blood is the
cause of headaches and backaches,
loss of appetite, poor digestion, rheu-
matism, neuralgia, nervous, irritabi-
lity and many other troubles. To
poor blood is due the pimples and
blotches, the muddy complexion that
disfigures so many faces. To have
good health, a good complexion and a
cheerful manner, the Blood most be
kept rich, red and pure. This is
easily done through the use of a
blood enriching tonic like Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills. The whole mission
of this medicine is to help enrich the
blood which reaches every nerve and
every organ in the body, bringing
with it health, strength and new ac-
tivity. That is why people who oc-
casionally use Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills always feel bright, active and
strong.
Mrs. E. E Cook, Sintcoe, Ont.,
gives strong testimony to the value
of Dr. Wiltiama' Pink Pills when the
blood is in an anaemic condition, she
says: "I have been a sufferer for
some years from a run down condi-
tion of the system. I suffered from
pains in the back, twitching of the
nerves and muscles, my appetite was
poor, I had indigestion and would get
drowsy after eating. My hands and
feet were almost always cold, and
though I was constantly doctoring,
the medicine I took did not help me.
I had practically given up 'tope of
good health, until a friend from Ham-
ilton Tame to visit me, and urged me
to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. It
took some persuasion, but finally I
consented to try them. i have rea-
son to he grateful that 1 did, for after
using seven boxes I felt like a new
person. 1 have gained in weight,
have n better color and my work is
now a pleasure. For this condition
my thank( ore due Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, and 1 cannot praise them
too highly."
You can get Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills through any dealer in medicine,
or by mail at 50 cents a box or six
boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Wil-
liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

A dog that Mien o,ietttly
.re ltusatans, who were only
�s:.gLtly influenced by the Latin races,
that "Dogs bark and the •wlnd
ca.rrtet' It away,: but the French,
s' ,r.nlurds, Germane, and r:ugllsh,
wh:, hove Inherited more th:,n they,
o Id, to acknowledge fi'oni ancient--
ltto.te, all agree that "barking dogs '
, not bite," and we has, alsu in
l:e4iisb the warning "to have a care.
104' a silent dog an still water,"
which is clearly a free translation Qf
tl.a Latin original.
The French tell us that "there are
good dogs of all sizes," but this has
1.ot prevented them from discovering
Hat there are dog bates who will
roe at no vlllany to satisfy their
grudge. Thus "a min who wants to
rown his dog says It 1s mad." France
;s so near England that this saying
"seed the Channel and became ac-
,Otnated in spite of the fondness of
nation of animal lovers for one of
helr beat friends.
But the saying did not 'originate in
France. It goes back to the Romans,
who say that "whos) is desirous of
.,eating a dog will readily nud a
tick." The Italians inherited 11 from
lite Romans. When It got to Den -
,::ark It took this form: "ile whu
t':antl to bang a dog is sure to and
rope," or "to say that the dog bites
Ole sheep." And the Germans say
chat "when a man will throw at a
eg he will soon find a stone " The
Germans also say, very cbaractenstl-
rally, "a bashful dog never fattens."
As one proceeds into Asia he bride
eoofitcting views about dogs. The
Tampa, of southern Odra, whose
shins are an easy mark for sharp
teeth, say that "on finding a stone
we see no dog and on seeing a dog
we find no stone," as though a dog
existed only to be stoned. A little
htrther east, In China, we find that.
"dogs More more good In them than
raen think they have," a saying that
uuld not have become Imbedded in
the; proverbial wisdom of any but a
kindly race with a friendly feeling
for all created things. And the Chi-
:tese also say that "a dog has no
;,version to a poor family." as well as
"a dog understands his master's nod."
A well-known American once re-
r:,arked that a dog is a better friend
thin a human being." "For," said
hr, "the dog will be at your feet,
ready at any moment to respond to
},vtr mood, while'a humin being will

,o his mood."
I'alestine'a Pot,sihdlltir,,
Discussing the future of ;:1 : holy
Land under British control Mr. Har- t
•,Id J. Shestone, writir,: .n the
.1'tudoor Magazine, says:
"Jost as Belgium in m'.l••rn times
been the cockpit of the nations
.,f the West, so in ancient daye was
Palestine the battleground of theyold
empires. Here the Egyptian, Baby -
i nnian, and other empires contended
for the mastery of the terld. That
was why David and So omen kept
large armee, and why the old Hebrew
',cines entered into treaties with this
neighbor, and that, In order to pre-
serve their country from Invasion.
Thr British occupation of Palestine
,grans that our hold upon Egypt, the
Sinal Peninsula, and Mesopotamia,
and upon India, le strengthened.
"Yet. Palestine is a very email
;'ountry, occupying but some 6,000
:quare miles. It is about the size of
Wales, and, like Wales, Is very mous-
talnoue. It is full of hills and val-
leys, with here and there a rolling
plain. The smallness of the country
surprises every traveler. In a stretch
of land equal to that between Aber-
deen and Dundee you cover the whole
central ground of the Bible, from the
Sea of Galilee to Jerusalem. In a
ride equal to the distance from Lon-
don to Windsor there may be seen
enough, to interpret many centuries
of the world's supreme history.
"The Dead Sea is but fifty miles
from the Mediterranean, the Sea of
Galilee about twenty-one miles, while
Die distance between the two seas le
only fifty-five miles. Yet in this com-
paratively small stretch of country
there Is every kind of sell from sand
and broken limestone to rich red cho-
colate loam. Every variety of climate
too, may be experienced, and both
temperate and tropical fruits and
vegetables eultivated."
The laaobeb Teas.
In Central Atria; the gigantic bao-
bab tree, whose trunk sometimes at-
tains a diameter of 40 feet, often
serves as a natural cistern, retaining
rain water in large quantities in a
cavity formed at the top of the broad
trunk. 'Making the hint then tiilJorded
by nature, the Arabs artificially hol-
low out the trunks of large baobab',
and fill them with water during the
prevalence of rains, as a provlalon
against the dry season. These ole -
terns are in cases twenty feet in
height, and eight or ten feet in dia-
meter. The water is used both for
drinking and for irrigating melon
patches.
Murmuring of Sea Shells.
One is often perplexed by the mur-
muring sounds that come from a sea
shell, but realty there la no reason
for this. The sound is not the erho
of the waves. The hollow form of the
shell end its polished surface enable
II to receive and return the beatings
of all sounds that eh:utre to he in the
