Vitus dance iu its earlier otages. So common is this nervous disease in childhood that in some schools one-fifth of all the pupils have been found suffering from it in ore form or another. Be- fore the .presence oft,the disease is betrayed there is usually a distttrb- e.nee of the general health. The ehiild 'shows listlessness and in- atteetion. Then it becomes rest- less, and twitching of the muscles and jerking of the limbs and body follow. A remedy that cures St, Vitus dance' and eures it se thor- oughly that no trace of the disease remains is Dr. Williaans' Pink Pills, which make the new blood nece.s- eery to feed the starving nerves and gives them the nourishment they demand. Mrs. Hiram . Barnhart, Scotia Junction, Ont., says: "About two years ago my oldest daughter, Ma- bel, then ten years of age, was stricken with. St, Vitus dance. She could not keep still for half amin- ute, no matter how hard she tried. Her limbs would jerk and twitch and every little thing would start her crying. 1 gave her several bot- tles of medicine said to be good for the nerves, but instead of helping her she was steadily growine.worse. Her voice would change so 'Ghat we could` hardly understand her, and her face became twitched until she did not look likethesame child. I had used Dr. "Williams' Pink Pills myself •when run clown, and finally decided to give her these. When she had taken two boxes I could notice an improvement, and by the time she had used five boxes she was fully cured. However, I was determined to make the cure per- manent if possible, and I gave her two boxes more, and I can truth- fully say that she has never had a symptom of the trouble since, and is now as bright and active as any child of her age, 1 heartily recom- mend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to 1l mothers e res as the result of w list hthey have done form,Y child' and myself."

To eorepar+e a person who is un- adapted to his surroundings to "ta cut of water" is no longer ae- enrate, for Men ' of Science have learned that severel species of fish are quiteet home out .of their na- tive element. The climbing perch and the lung -fish are examples. In the "Marvels of the Universe," Sir H. H. Johnston describes :another "land fish," the bommi. Its scientific name is periophthal- mus, Englishmen in West Africa speak of it as the "mud -skipper," but the natives always call this curious fish the bommi. The bommi is a member of the goby family' of marine or estuarial fishes, most of which are remarka- ble in one way or another for their fondness for walking or jumping over the ground, rather than get- ting through the water by the use of their .fins, The bommi, indeed, is fast becoming a land animal. • It takes to the water during the breeding -season, but at other times itr p ef+ers to lie on the mud or sand, or to climb the trunks of man- groves or pandanus, However, it always stays near . the water; in fact, it usually prefers to lie with the end of its tail in the waiter. It has been said that it can oxygenate its blood through' its very vascular tail -fin, which thus replaces the gills. That explanation, however, hardly accountsfor the fact that the bommi often remains for long periods of time on the trunk of a tree a long way from the water. The traveller Peehuel-Loesohe writes of the bommi fish that he ob- served on the Loa.ngo coast: By bending and stretching their bodies and supporting themselves by the tail and fins they advance in a. -series of very small hops. When they are basking in .the mttd, one . of them will often give a sudden joyful jump; sometimes awhole school of them 'will be jumping and hopping about at play. I could never ob- serve just how they climbed trees,. but suspect that they work upward by using their fins and tail as much as they use them on the ground. "They are very timid.' At the first approach of. danger they raise themselves slightly by means of their fins; at the next alarm they duck flat, and then begin to hop vigorously in the direction of the water. When in full flight, their jumpsare often two, three or four times the length of their own bod • ies. In'' grossing shallow water, they prefer to hop over it, instead of swimming throughit; a large g number of them passing over the water in this way makes a curious splashing sound." Like other members of the goby family, the bommi has turned its fore fins into very serviceable arms, with appendages that resemble hands. But the hind limbs have simply become a sort of pedestal. from which the fish can leap, , or which he can use as a kind of sucker in climbing trees. The back fins can be erected, and on account of their spikes, act as a slight protection. The creature's real safeguard, however, lies in its uneatable flesh, which even the shore -birds seem to dislike: The bommi is not in any way on the original line of ascent that was followed by the pristine types of fish that gradually turned into am phibians, and from amphibians into reptiles. It represents .an indepen- dent attempt on the part of a, mod- ern fish to adopt a land. life.

Got to Pay. A Dutchman was going to cross a bridge; . he was riding- in a little cart drawn by a goat. The toll man came out and said—"Here, you've got to pay toll before' you can pass this bridge." "What, to pay toll?" "Yes, five cents to cross this bridge." After an argu- ment the Dutchman paid the five cents and went on. In the after- noon he came back again, only this time he had the goat sitting -on the seat, and he was dragging the cart himself. Out came the toll man and said—"Here, you know you've got to pay five cents." The Dutchman shook his head, and_pginting to the goat, said --"Don't talk to .me—ask the driver."

Professor Coleman's Narrow Es- cape in the.Coluinbia ]fiver. As Prof. A. P. Colema=n and his companion, Mr. Frank • Stover, were embarking at 'Beavermouth for a -canoe :trip seventy miles down the Columbia. River, "Old Uncle" warned them of an eighteen -mile canon, and told them that only one man, of many who, had ventured, had ever come through it alive. 'That was not exactly encouraging, writes Professor Coleman in his book, "The Canadian Rockies," but their traps were in the canoe, and they pushed off. Old Uncle's parting words were, . "Well, so long, boys! -I wish ye may come back sale; but I wouldn't, risk my life in that boat." ,That afternoon was one of en- chantment. The great river swiftly took us out of man's "disfigured world, where ax and fire had done their wicked; work; •into the 'muster - ions o world of •the mountains:. • Old Unclewarnings, ��, were absurd, and mail expedition looked—very pros- perous. ` Then we began to hear a faint roar in the distance, and I no- ticed that the mountains crowded together a mile or two a,head iii a way that looked . ominous: All at once the trees parted to the left, and disclosed a downward swoop of water between, walls of schist, and beyond that Seaouts of foam. It was Surprise Rapids. We saw that ib' would not be safe to run any part of the rapids with our small canoe. Why not build a strong raft, and run swiftly and without labor down to Lake Kin basket 1 There,was plenty of lum- ber in the driftwood stacked itp`by the eddy. In 'some runaway boom. logs there were iron spikes, which we chopped out, and used. With much hammering, we lis- tened the biro ere and planks to- gether, and then tied the glacier rope round each end of the raft to make it doubly strong. We made no, haste in paddling across, the eddy, for who knew' what was beyond? ' Presently the, turrent', caught us, and ` I would have given much at that moment to go back, but it was too late One pitch followed another; the waves halfa$mothered us at every leap. And now, right ahead, was the worst point of all --what the Ot- tawa, raftsmen call a "cellar." There was astrange sensation of sinking into the depths and thenes deluge of water that leaped and trampled upon us. The raft struck heavily, and was nearly ,dragged from under us. The next moment we were above water ,again, Half -strangled, . but alive; We were sure, however, that the peeks underneath the raft must have been torn from their fasten- ings.

In the- midst of our lugubrious forebodings, Frank caught sight of something black swaying in the water under the raft. There were the packs, still enclosed in the waterproof, barely held at one end by the strap ! We blessed the honest leather of that ancient shawl -strap, and .no, longer felt like shipwrecked mariners on a desert island, Tf l Jght Bo.Awkward.
