A Story of Intense Suffering
and Relief.
'Do I recommend Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills? You may believe I do,"
says Mr, John H, Jamieson, of Wal-
lacebnrg, Ont,
"For five years I suffered day and
night from neuritis, The agony was
terrible. I lost contro'-of my arm and
shoulder and my hand became shriv-
eled, Nothing helped ane till I began
tarring Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Even
then l'is improve' lent y. as slow and I
took ten boxes before I was on the
way to recovery. After that, though,
relief was rapid. My band gradually
Oiled out; the pain left me and I could
sleep in peace. That was two years
ago and I hzve not had a twinge of
the trouble 'since."
Sufferers from neuritis, neuralgia or
rheumatism should try the common.

Dr, Slipher, Flagstaff Director,

Flagstaff, Ariz,—Dr, V, M. Sllpher,
director of Lowell Observatory, said
recently that the new planet, Pluto,
discovered by the observatory last
January is about the size of Mars
and that further study had revealed
no cometary features,
"The preliminary orbit of Planet
X," Dr. Sllpher reported, "has been

staff, with the collaboration of Dr,
John A. Miller, director of Sproul
Observatory, using positions or Jan.

King Edward's Life
" Revealed in Book
Once Slapped His Aunt In-
stead of Kissing Her,
Book by Late Sir Lionel
Cust Declares
London — That Sir Lionel Cust
who was a friend of King Edward
VII, in his book just published en-
titled "King Edward Vii, and His
Court," makes some notable com-
ments and tells many interesting
anecdotes.
Sir Lionel writes: "I ant disposed
to think since shy acquaintance With
King Edward, that the great mister -
tune of his life—a misfortune which
was shared by the country—was that
his mother lived too long, 1101 In the
general sense of the word, but from
the point of view of the welfare of
her son and successor,
"In the last 20 years of Queen Vic-
toria's reign, the Prince of Wales )lad
not enough to do. Ministers neglect-
ed and even despised him as a pos-
sible factor in politics and the higher
aristocracy gave him the cold shoul-
der.
No Advantage
"Ile should have reigned earlier
but not a day later, Ten years long-
er would have been no advantage
and night have been a disaster, but
had he reigned ten years earlier, the
face of European history might have
been changed. Had Queen Victoria
taken her son into partnership she
would have found him a zealous work-
er loyally deferential to her author•
!ty and a shrewd and useful successor
to her husband as a private adviser
on politics in general."
Intimate Stories
Sir Lionel Cust tells intimate nee -
dotes of King Edward's life such as
when Queen Alexandra asked who the
marble bust of the "babe" was and
Edward's reply, "Don't you know? If
he had lived we should not bo here"
The bust was of Princess Elizabeth,
daughter of King William IV.
Another story tolls how the King
experimented dyeing marble busts
with tea in order to prevent their
clashing with the wall panelling and
his surprise at finding the bust of
the Prince Consort wearing a chest-
nut colored wig.
He tells how the then Prince Henry
being asked to Ma hie aunt, the
Grain Duchess Augusta Mecklenburg
Strelitz, promptly slapped her. Iiow
the Quaen of Portugal flustered the
King by planting resounding kisses
on both cheeks at Windsor.
The best story is of the small child
who was a guest at ono of the royal
parties at the Palace on being ask-
ed by His Majesty what he would
like, replied, "More jam King."
Trees
Each poplar is a steeple;
Birdies are f iiy people;
The Firs are b ve and rtr, ng,
They join the wild storms' song.
The Oaks aro wise and staid;
Tho Beeches in the glade
Are golden in the spring.
Each tree's a living thing.
And where the water dreams
By Pools and tumbling streams
The stooping Willows spread
Their arms, and overhead
The birds sing all day long.
And sometimes in their song
They tell the wow:Prom breeze

He wrote: "Nothing ion may do,
dearest, can still the ocean of emotion

IS BABY TEETHING?
Teething time is a time of worry to
most mothers. The baby is nervous;
fretful; feverish. IIis little gums are
swollen and sore; diarrhoea, conetipa-
tion, colic and sometimes convulsions
set in—neither baby nor mother can
sleep.
These troubles can bo quickly ban-
ished, however, through the use of
Baby's Own Tablets, concerning which
Mrs, Louis Grubb, Teeswater, Ont.,
says:—"I have used the Tablets for
all my babies while Teething and have
found then a splendid medicine."
Baby's Own Tablete are sold by all
medicine dealers or by mail at 25
cents a box from The Dr. Williams'
Medicine Co., Brockville, 001.
S le—"There is a1 old admirer of
mind over there."
He—"How old is he? If he's one
of those old reprobates about 50 years
old, I'll have to be careful."
Deadly Weapons
Tests of a new torpedo were re-
cently carried out between Wey-
mouth and Portland.
This new weapon, which experts
think may revolutionize torpedo war-
fare, has an eight -cylinder engine in-
stead of the two -cylinder of older
varieties, and Is said to be "more
deadly than anything yet Invented."
Another improvement in the art of
warfare Is reported from America,
where "the deadliest machine-gun in
the world" has just been invented.
It°1s said to fire half-inch calibre bul-
lets at the rate of 800 a minute, and
has a range of nine miles.
As new and more terrible varieties
of poison gas are being discoverd
from time to tine, the prospects for
the next war aren't particularly cheer-
ful. But perhaps things aren't as
bad as they seem, There were more
people killed, In proportion tc the
number of combatants, when men
fought hand to hand than there have
been since "deadlier" weapons than
sword and spear 1Vere introduced.
ENVY
What a wretched and apostate state
is this! To be offended with excel-
lence, and to hate a man because we
approve him! The condition of the
envious man is the most emphatically
mieernbie; he is not only incapable
of rejoicing in another's nlelit or suc-
cess, but lives in a world wiherein all
mankind are in a plot against his
, Sludying their own happiness
and advantage. Addison.
