THE TALE THAT
ECHO TOLD
By John T. Troth
The ancient village of Burb (as a
travelers toward the ley passes of
Knorrgap well know) lies a half day's
journey beyond Gaw, on the left bank
of the River Gurg, from the incessant
murmuring of whose waters. over
'their silver -pebbled shallows it takes
its name. And a very long time. ago
there dwelt in that place a. most skill-
ful physician, named, if I have re-
membered the tale aright, Men Yu,
the fame of whose vast learning had
penetrated even as far as purple -roof-
ed and gorgeous Sudaban, and his
proud neighbors- never wearied of pro-
phesying that he would some day be
called as court physiCian to the great
King.
esik. In his youth Men Yu had loved and
11 courted Yonda, the beautiful daughter
of the King's equerry, and, finally win-
ning her from his rival, Gorton, had
married her, they two living together
most happily for three years. Then
came to that, part of the world the
' year that nO man forgets even to -this
distant day, when the fetid. breath of
the white fever was* borne northward
on humid breezes from the far jungles
of Umb, It kissed, among many others,
Yo-nda, who, in spite of all Men Yu'S
wisdom, wasted away and died in the
bushed space between night fade and
dawn glow.
Ode winter' evening many years
later when Men Yu, resting from his
laborion% studies, was lost in thoughts
(as ever at sucli times) of the beauty
and goodness of Yonda, there came a
knocking at his door. Withdrawing
the oaken bars he adrintted a man at-
tired in gorgeous silks of green and
gol,d, and from the manner of his dress
at once knew him to be from a far
eastern country which lay, men said,
even beyond the fiery plains of Ilun-
thir, and those of Gerst. He proved,
indeed, to be a merchant of storied
Am -bur, whose far -gleaming roofs are
reported to be slated with nothing less -
than the burnished scales of golden
dragons overcome in old, forgotten
battles, • and he dealt in mysterious
wares and strange enchantments cal-
culated to divert the mind and beguile
the soul away from all sad thoughts.
His trafficking was carried on secretly
for fear of the anger of the priests,
• who had great jealousy of the occult
powers of his merchandise. Men Yu
had often heard of these things and
was glad to see them with his 'own
eyes, but steadfastly refused to buy,
saying that he had no wish to be di-
verted either from his labors or from
his sorrow.
At last the merchant, seeing that he
was..ebdurate, confided that he had yet
to reveal- the most truly amazing thing
of ;pl. Feeling in his turban, he
brought forth • a tiny, violet -colored
.70„, shell, within whose labyrinthine con -
ye -Futons he asserted there dwelt a
spirit a mere Voice, called Echo, who,
while invisible to any eye, Was cap-
able of reproducing, as on a veritable
mirrorOr sound, all that had fallen
upon the ear' of man s:nae the woi'ld
was but a little pellet of moist clay,
rolled ,between the thuml; and fore-
finger of God. Meu Yu was tremend-
onsly ,interested at 'hearing this, and
asked the merchant for proof of his in-
credible claims. The latter thereupon
commanded Echo, and the physdcion
• at once heard, quite p:ainly, the eon -
ed babble of strange tongues in the
streets and bazaars of far-off. Easte.rn
cities, the tinkle of silver-tongued
bells on the anklets of dancing girls,
and the weird long -drawn cries of
prie-sts praying for their minanrets at
the going down of I,he sun.
Them wanders, and especially the
last, convinced Men Nu that Echo
would indeed prove a most invaluable
and• diverting companion, and further,
• to sew tho possibility of discovering
'
through her voice many of the lost
secrets and mysteries of the past, so
helliquired of tiamerchant his price.
The man in green and gold thereupon
named remarkable conditions under
which alone could lie think of parting
with this the chiefest of his treasures,
Many and wondrous were the re-
-relations unveiled by the obedient
voice of Echo, and without parallel be-
came the fame of Men Yu throughout
all the then known world. By the ir-
refutable evidence of conversations
hoary with the breath of centuries and
unrecorded save witagn the memory
of Echo he mastered, one by one, the
moot problems that had vexed the
wisest men of his time.
But, improbable as it may appear,
although Men Yu never ceased to
dwell affectionately upon his memories
of inconipars,ble Yondo, years passed
before it moused to him to bid Echo
resurrect from the silence of the tonib
the voice' of his love as he had delight-
ed to hear it during the cruelly brief
years she had been with him. One
wild, stormy night, however, -when he
was more than usually lonely, he
thought of this new wonder and joy-
fully commanded the shell to give up
those dearly cherished sounds. Echo
was unaccountably silent at first and,
when. he insisted, seemed td speak sad-
ly and reluctantly. Then, as Men Yu
listened so hungarily, he heard Yoa-
da's own voice in conversation; not
witli himself, but with. •Oorlon, his
rival, and through her tones there
breathed a smoldering fire of passion,
such as even he had never heard there-
in.
Finally Men Yu rose and, first seal-
ing the door and windows of his room
with wax, took certain magical pow-
ders from sun -dry vials, blending them
together in the form of a pyramid in a
little earthern bowl, Upon its sum-
mit he laid the violet shell, and then
powders here and there with a blaz-
ing splint from. the fire. As dense
volumes of pungent smoke arose from
the smoldering heap, he addressed
Echo ifi these words;
"It is known to me that your voice
may not wholly be destroyed, but, for
the peace of mind of all the ensuing
ages, I will curb your too faithful
tongue, and return to utter oblivion
the secrets of the dead past!"
Amazing Appetites. .
Our forefathers seern to have been
mighty men, who thought nothing of
riding 100 miles a day or of perform-
ing feats of pedestrianism from which
we would shrink. Is it possible that
we are becoming more feeble because
we do not eat enough?
Even fifty years ago meals were far
more heavy than they are now—one
hes only to read. Dickens to realize
this. Our grandfathers would have
felt starved on the diet that most of
us find sufficient
13ut if' we go back a few centuries
we find appetites that seem amazing.
Louis XIV. of France, who had the re-
putation of being a very moderate
trencherman, used to breakfast off
four cutlets, a whole chicken, four or
five eggs, and some ham,
°The records of a dinner given by
Henry VIII. show that each guest con-
sumed nearly half a stone of food. The
fish course alone included eels, sal-
mon, pike, barbel (now considered
quite unfit for food), mullet, and stur-
geon.
Catherine de Medici offered her
guests a feast in. 1545 at which the
roasts alone—there were a dozen
other courses--oonsisted of peacocks,
bustards, pheasants, capons, herons,
swans, cranes, geese, hares, rabbits,
deer pigs, quails, and ducks.
THE FALL WEATHER
HARD ON LITTLE ONES
Canadian fall weather is extremely
hard on little ones. One day it is
warm and bright and the next wet and
cold. These sudden changes ,bring on
colds, cranips and colic, and unless
baby's little stomach i.x kept right the
result may be serious. There is noth-
ing to equal Baby's Own Tablets in
keeping the little ,ones well. They
sweeten the stomach, regulate the
bowels, break up colda and niake baby
thrive. The Tablets are sold by medi-
cine dealers Or by mail at 25 cents a
box from The Dr..Williams' Medicine

HEALTH' EDUCATION
BY DR. J. MI.DDLETON
Provincial Board of Health. Ontario
Dr. Middleton will b• glad to answer nuestioca on Public Health MI*
tars through this cokimn. Addrass him at BgeslIno House, Spadini
Crescent, Toronto.
Care of the feet is of the utmost
imn
.portance to health. The custom i
this and other so-called civilized coun-
tries of cramping and binding the feet
in leather shoes has created a real
"foot" problem. One cannot be sur-
prised at foot trouLles when we know
that there are about twenty-seven
bones in each foot, and these are con-
nected up by ligaments, muscles, ten-
dons, etc., with a network of arteries
and nerves. The wonder is that the
pressure of shoes that are made often-
times to suit fashion rather than com-
fort, there is not even . more foot
troubles than there actually is. One
of the first 'hints that them is some-
thing wrong with the feet is brought
to the attention of the sufferer by a
pain in the muscles of the leg. Some-
times this pain takes the form of a
cramp, sometimes of a dull pain, and
sometimes the muscles of the leg tire
easily; the feet may burn or feel un-
comfortable. Whenever any of these
conditions occur, something is wrong.
• Away back in childhood the trouble
often begin,s. It is then that the bones
are somewhat soft and not properly
calcified. Any pressure, squeezing or
binding of the bones of the feet, there-
fore, is dangerous in children o ,nay
1
, lead to life-long infirmity.
1 Our boasted civilization certainly
Ibrings us little benefit as far as foot
ease and foot comfort are concerned.
In countries where the custom is to
travel barefoot, one seldom, if ever,
sees any malformations of the feet.
Savages are wonderful walkers. Asa
rule they could out -distance any white
man who since childhood has had his
feet clamped up and compressed in
leather shoes. Like practically every
other ailment of adult life the harm
begins in the early days of life. If
our varying weather permitted, every
child should be allowed to run bare-
footed during nine months of the year.
His feet would thereby harden, and
the movement and freedom of the toes
would strengthen the feet and allow
the bones to„grow in a natural way.
When boots have to be worn, care
should be taken to see where they
wear, both on soles and heels, so that
the mechanism of the feet can be
studied and if there is any deformity
to find whether the cause lies .in the
foot itself or in the legs.
HAVE YOU ANY OF
THESE SYMPTOMS?
If You Have You Are in Need of
a Tonic Medicine.Are you pale and weak, easily tired
and out of breath on slight exertion?
Are you nervous? Is your sleep dis-
turbed? Do you wake up in the morn-
ing feeling as tired as when you went -
to bed? Is your appetite poor, your
digestion weak, and do you have pains
after eating?
If you have any of these symptonis•
you need a tonic, and in the realm of
medicine there is no better tonic than.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, which enrich
the blood, restore shattered nerves
and bring the glow of health to pale
cheeks. The value of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills is shown by the case of Mr.
Horace Cuphill, Woodward's Cove,
N.B., who says:—"The first, indication
that my general health was not good
was a shortness of breath after the
least exertion. Then my appetite be-
,gan to fail, and after eating it seemed
as if there was a lump in. my stomach.
I grew so weak that I could not walk
a hundred yards without resting. Then
I was taken with a numbness all over
my body and was in a sad plight. I
was under a doctor's. cam, but as I
was not getting any better, I decided
to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The
first few boxes did not seem to help
me but my wife urged me to continue
their use and I got four boxes more.
Before these were gone I could eat a
fair meal, the numbness was leaving
me and I was feeling much better in
every way. I took the pills for a while
longer, and felt that I was again a well
man, I still take the pills occasionally
but have had no return of the old
trouble."
You can get these pills gfrom any
medicine dealer or by mail at 60 cents
a box from The Dr. Williams' Medi-
cine Co., Brockville, Ont.

Borax as Precious al Gold.
• Borax is used in every household—
in talcum powders, eye lotions, medi-
cinal powders, and soaps. And yet,
four thousand years ago, it was a
rarity almost as precious as gold.
In the days of I3abylon the only
known sources were in a few salt
marshes in the Gobi Desert, north of
the Himalayas. It was collected by
natives. Small Hfialayan sheep car-
ried it slung in bags round their necks
down the steep mountain -sides into
India, and it was then taken by camels
to Eastern Europe.
It was used by goldsmiths for clean-
ing the surface of molten gold. Only
by means of borax could the crude
metal be refined and 'worked into
rings, amulets, and breastplates.
Nowadays the United States pro-
duees more than 40,000 tons a year.
Thirty years ago its richest source
was a Californian desert called the
Death Valley—a place believed to be
the hottest and driest spot on earth.
A company supported by British capi-
tal worked the mines. Until they built
a railway ten years later the produce
was hauled by mules over 165 miles
of uninhabited desert.
.A. new borax mine, believed to con-
tain ten million tons, has been dis-
covered in Nevada. The world will
now have far more than it wants, un-
less new uses are discovered for what
was once a rarity.
China's Millions.
China is so over -populated that
there are, always many more coolies
than work for them, If at any time
all of China's coolie millions should
find employment it would mean that
trade and business were going at top
speed in the republic.
