Thousands of mothers state that they know of no other medicine for little ones to equal Baby's Own Tab- lets—that they always. keep the Tab- lets in the home as a preventive of ,childhood ailments, or if sickness aloes suddenly grip their little ones they feel safe with such a remedy at band. Concerning the use of the Tablets Mrs. Donat Ploudre, Tingwick, Que., writes:—"I have nothing but praise for Baby's Own Tablets. They are the only. medicine I have ever given my two little ones and I am glad to state that the Tablets have always kept them in perfect health. I feel so safe with -the Tablets that I al- ways keep a box in the house." Baby's Own Tablets are a mild but thorough laxative. They regu- late the bowels, sweeten the stom- ach and thus banish constipation and indigestion; break up colds and simple fever and make the cutting of teeth painless. The Tablets are ab- solutely safe, being guaranteed free from all injurious drugs. They are sold by all medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine 'Co., Brockville, 'Ont. SOME QUEER FOODS 'EATEN HUMANS. In other parts of the world to -day many dishes are prepared from ani- mals that are considered "taboo" in 'this country. For instance, monkeys are eaten by many races, including the Chinese. the natives of Ceylon, inhabitants of Trin- idad, certain African tribes, the abor- igines of the Amazon and the Indians mf Spanish Guiana, and it is stated that the flesh is most palatable. The Africans sometimes eat the flesh of the lion, but this is not considered nearly as good. In Java a species of bat, known as the kalong, is highly valued as food by the natives; the flesh is white, delicate and tender and generally imbued with a smell of musk The Canadian lynx is very 'popular with the Indians; the African tribes are forbidden the flesh of the wolves, but it is not infrequently eat- en by their sick folk. Much is heard about the fur of the skunk. but the flesh of this animal is considered a great dainty by the Indians. Cats and dogs form attractive dishes to the Chinese, and were eaten in the Beige of Paris during the Franco-Prus- sian war, as well as in Belgium in the great war. And here we must not forget that, according to Pliny, pupa. pies were regarded as ,a great de i- teacy by the Roman gourmands. The bear, until recently, supplied food to several nations of Europe, and its hams were considered excel - tent. Two bears were eaten in Paris during the seige mentioned above and the flesh was reported to taste like that of the pig. The hedgehog is a princely dish in iBarbary and is also eaten in Spain, whilst the African Arabs prepare it as a delicacy for the sick among them. Kangaroos are eaten by the Abor- igines of Australia, and their flesh is considered excellent. Soup made from the tail is reputed to be far superior to oxtail soup; here again it is on record that three kangaroos were also eaten in Paris during the siege. Horses are slaughtered and their flesh is served up in many European states in a similar manner to that mf beef in this country. In 1866 the first horse butcher's shop was opened In Paris, and it was on record that during the Beige 65,000 horses, 1,060 It donkeys and 2,000 mules were eaten by Parisians. Horseflesh, by the way, is now re- commended by medical men on the continent as the best remedy for anaemia. In Abyssinia and other parts of Africa, as also in Sumtra, the elephant is eaten, and steaks are cut from the beast and when cooked are declared to be pleasant meat. Elephants were also eaten during the siege in Paris, elephant liver being considered finer than that of goose or duck. Elephant's trunks and tongue are also good food, and after long sim- mering much resemble the hump of a buffalo and the tongue of an ox, but all the other meat is tough and from its peculiar flavor only to be eaten by a hungry man. In Abyssinia the rhino- ceros is also eaten, and the flesh of the hippopotamus supplies, if not a deli- cate, a substantial meal. Cuckoo is not an uncommon dish on the continent, and is considered by the Arabs a great delicacy. The nat- ives of Australia eat parrot and cock- atoos, whilst in Africa the ostrich affords an abundant banquet to many savage tribes. It it said to taste like very inferior turkey. The crane was eaten by the Romans, and it is menu - ed in England as being served up as a sumptuous dish at splendid entertain- ments as early as the Norman con- quest and as late as the reign of Henry VIII. At( the enthronement Last of George Nevil, Archbishop of York, there were 204 cranes, 204 bit- terns and 400 heronshaws.

MOTORS DON'T RUN lET ER. A'Il NIGHT Many motorists are under the im- pression that automobile engines function more efficiently in _the damp of evening or rainy days than at dry times, but the idea is erroneous, Ar- thur W. Gardiner research engineer, says. Tests made under standard labora- tory conditions show that engine pow- er decreases with increasing humidity of the air, and that a large increase in spark advance is required to ob- tain best power at high humidity. Similarly, in damp air the spark ad- vance for incipient detonation May he considerably increased, compared with dry air conditions. What happens is that under condi- tions of high humidity the combustion rate is slowed up, resulting in appar- ently smoother engine operation, which the car owner is likely to mis- take for improved power. In spite of this, however, water vapor is rel- atively ineffective in suppressing de- tonation. A further indication of the influ- ence of humidity on engine operation is the fact that approximately eight per cent. more heat is dissipated through the radiator when the air is dry than when its relative humidity is 100• per cent. There is a tendency to regard re- ligion, like music or drawing at school, ns one of life's extras, to be taken or left. according to tastef--The Bishop of Winchester. • EtrrdiI fffr had L Lill, Attract Every Value- WAe kria See OUT SO' the pace 7F.fia&D Valuta° far am:mile wIE have never offered such striking suit values.
