NEED NEW BLOOD
Rich, Red Blood Means Health
and Strength.
The anaemia of young girls may be
1nherited,1'or it may be caused by bad
ail, unsuitable food, hasty and irre-
gular eating, insufficient out-of-door
exercise and not enough rest and
eee sleep.
It comes on gradually; -beginning
with languor; indisposition to mental
or bodily exertion, irritability and a
feeling of fatigue. Latercomes the
palpitation of the heart, headaches,
dieziness following a stooping posi-
tion, frequent backaches and breath-
lessuess. In a majority of eases con-
stipation is present. There maye.be no
great . lossof flesh, .. but usually the
complexion takes on a greenish -yellow
pallor.
Cases of this kind, if neglected, be -

Crepe Soled Shoes.
Golf enthusiasts, tennis players and
yacationists this year are turning
more and more to the so-called crepe
soled footwear first produced in Cey-
lon. While at first glance the crepe
soled shoes look ungainly as com-
pared with the familiar rubber soles
snealkersthe growing popularity of the
newer product would indicate it had
much merit. When first produced
crepe soles were called "plantation
soles," because it was the rubber in
its pure fora direct from the. Ceylon
-plantations. It is yellowish in color,
grisly in texture and close knit. The
soles run from one -sixteenth of an
inch in thickness to three -eights inch.
Its major claims for general use are
the fine wearing qualitites, lack of
heating • so common in all rubber
soled shoes, and the fact that it grips
the ground without the knobs and
ridges so familiar on all sport shoes.
Efforts are bing made to perfect ma-
chinery for making crepe soles that

factory way. has • been to sew a thin.
piece of rubber on the light leather
bottom of the upper and then stick the
crepe sole on that, The British War
Office is advertising for 40,000 pairs
of crepe soled shoes with canvas taps,
to be used as "rest shoes," and the
contract should give a decided impetus
to the manufacture of this class of
footwear and perfect the output eon-
siderably.
Obeyed Orders.

went over his head.

he discovered him lying breathless on

find himself floating about at the
mercy of every current.
A number? of experts have been at
work on this problem, however, and
have produced a contrivance known as
the submarine sled. It has up to now
been demonstrated only in rivers, but
there is every reason to hope that it
will come through with` flying colors
when put to the full test in deep
water.
It is claimed that, with the aid of
this sled, divers will be able to travel
along at the bottom of the sea at
depths of twenty fathoms and more.
The sled is driven by electricity, and
carries Its own plant for making the
current. Powerful electric lamps
show the diver where he is going, and
there is another powerful lamp pro-
vided in order that wrecks may be
inspected more thoroughly.
Its driver sits at a,„wheel, in much
the same way as a man driving a mo-
tor -car, and can make the sled rise or
descend at will by means of wings con-
trolled by levers. An electric drill
can •also be attached to the sled, and
this should prove invaluable for mak-
ing tunnels under the sea, or in the
construction of bridges and other work
where foundations have to be laid un-
der the water.
If the new invention comes up to ex-
pectations, it may hasten the con-
struction of the long -discussed English
Channel Tunnel.
"Old Curiosity Shop” Saved
From Destruction.
Anxiety as to the fate of the little
two-story antique shop In Lincoln's
Inn Fields which is better known as
the "Old Curiosity Shop," died down
when the place was bought recently
by J. A. Phillips, the London real es-
tate agent, who has announced the in-
tention of keeping it just as it is and
not pulling It down in order to erect a
modern building, wnhich it .has been
feared would happen.
As a matter of fact, there is ' con-
siderable doubt as' to whether this is.
really the place that was immortalized
by Dickens in his novel, the only thing"
being known to a degree of certainty
being that the building Dickens wrote
about was an old one, and that it was
somewhere in London within walking
distance of Covent. Garden.. -
"Old -Curiosity Shop" certainly is
old, but skeptics maintain that in the
days, of Dickens it was -not an antique
shop, but the house" of a sign -painter.
Fifty year's ago it was occupied by a
person called Tesseyman, who sold old
pictures and old china, and he it was
who had a passing painter put • the
words "Old Curiosity Shop" above the
door, realizing that this would attract
people to his place.
The words "`immortalized by Dick-
ens," now underneath the name, • were
tnot added until some years later, but
as that is at least forty years ago
!many pilgrims who ,have passed the
place and seenthe legend have made
it famous with Dickens lovers and it
is invariably associated with his con
caption of Little Neil.
Phillips paid just over $10,000 for
the shop as it stands now. It con-
tains a little basement room, two
rooms on the ground four, which com-
posethe shop, and two`rooms on the
first floor. •

CHOLERA INFANTUM
Cholera infantum is one of the fatal
ailments of childhood. It is a trouble
that conies on suddenly, especially
during the summer months, and unless
prompt action is taken the little one
may soon be beyond aid. Baby's Own
Tablets are an ideal medicine in ward-
ing off this trouble. They regulate the
-bowels and sweeten the stomach and
thus prevent all the dreaded summer
complaints. They are an absolutely
safe medicine, being guaranteed by a
government analyist to contain no
opiates or narcotics or other harmful
drugs. They cannot possibly do harm
—they always do good. The Tablets

Unfortunate!
A young married man met a friend
of his bachelor days and insisted on
taking him home for lunch. His wife
was unprepared for visitors.
Calling him aside, she told -him she
had only one doses oysters, and that
when his friend- had eaten hisquota
of four he must not be. asked to take
any more.
In spite of his promise to remember,
when the guest had eaten his four
oysters, the host pressed him to take
more. The wife looked distressed,
and the friend declined. The husband
insisted, the wife looked on in agony,
and the guest refused firmly to have
the reset of • the oysters brought from
the kitchen.
Later; the wife said to her husband,
"How could you urge him to have
more oysters when I had explained to
you that there weren't any?"
"I'm sorry, said the penitent hus-
band, "but I'forgot about It."
"Forgot! What do you suppose I
was kicking you under the table for?"
retorted his wife.
"But you didn'tkick me," said the
husband.
