"I caught a dreadful cull, 1going to town, and about a week after I became 41 choked up, and could hardly breathe, and could ,car;:ely sleep at night for coughing. I went to the doctor, and he told me that I teas t cttn bronchitis. • My husban:l went tr, tree druggists, and asked them if they had e cough medicine of any kind that they could recommend. The druggist brought out a bottle of Dr, Wood's Norway fisc Syrup. I started using it, and it cone pletely cured me of my cold. I cannot tell you how thankful I was to get rid of that awful nasty cold. I shall always keep a bottle of Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup on hand, and I shall only be too glad to recommend it to all others." Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup is a remedy that has been on the market for the past twenty-five years, and we can recommend it, without a doubt, as being the best cure for coughs and colds that you can possibly procure. There are a lot of imitations on the market, so when you go to your druggist or dealer sec that you get " Dr. Wood's;" put up in a yellow Wrapper; three pine trees the trade mark; the price, 25c and 60e.

How a machine gun was forced to desert the German army is recounted in the story of the heroism of a 16 - year -old Italian volunteer in the Rus- sian army—Constantine Zepolli— whose part as the loading figure in the episode earned one of the two St, George crosses he has won. Overhearing his commander ex- pressing .a wish that some one "would silence or capture"- a gun which was stationed at troublesome proximity to the Russian trenches, Zapolli, on his own initiative, crawled on his stomach for a hundred yards, located the position of the gun, returned from the danger zone and conferred his trench fellows, and crept forth once more, this time dragging a coil of stout rope. Reaching the gun, he tied one end around it without being discovered, and again reached his own lines, with the free end of the rope in his clutch. Presently the Germans were aston- ished to observe the gun disappearing toward the Russian trenches. It was successfully dragged from their pos- session, a number of Germans being killed in an effort to prevent its de- parture. Horseflesh Eaten in Hungary. Horseflesh and dogflesh are com- monly eaten by the lower classes in Hungary because of the food scarcity. There are three meatless days a week, and substitutes for meat, such as rice, are very scarce. The action of Germany in clearing Hungary of corn and flour earlier in the War caus- ed a dearth from which the country has never recovered. It also caused much bitterness against Germany.

The heart always works in sympathy with the nerves, and unless the heart is working properly the whole nerve system is liable to become unstrung, and the heart itself become affected. Milburn's I•Ieart and Nerve Pills will 4 build up the unstrung nervous system, and strengthen the weak heart, so that the sufferer will enjoy the very best of health for years to come. hies. John -def. Hicks, Iluntsville, Ont., writes: "I am sending you my testimony for the benefit I have received from using Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills. As a nerve and heart builder they have done wonders for tie. At times my heart would beat violently, and my nerves seemed to be all out of order, but after using a few boxes of Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills I feel like recommending them to others that they might receive benefit as I did." Milburn's 'Heart and Nerve Pills have been on the market.,for the past,twenty- ve years, and are universally considered to be unrivalled as a medicine for, all daorc:ers of the heart or nerves.

When serving heap carrots in center of dish, thicken gravy with a little dissolved flour, boil smooth and pour around carrots. Some Ways of Saving.. By this time the are all of us more or less familiar with advice on the subject of economy and do not need reminding to use up odds and ends of bread in puddings and to save vege- table peelings for stock. But there are many little ways of saving not generally known or. apt to be regarded as too trivial to matter. However, nothing is too unimportant to count in these days, and even frac- tions of cents soon meld up into dollars. o It is surprising what a lot of waste g gu:tt on if yeti' try. to hurry your coait- }it", Milk puddings, for instance, should always be cooked slowly, because if milk is cooked quickly it wastes by evrnoratio'n.

One egg well beaten is worth two not well beaten. When a pudding is boiled in a basin, it should fill the basin. Roasting meat cannot be basted too much or too often. The part which is to be topmost in the dish should, when boiling be down - most in the pan. Salted and smoked meat should be put into cold water, brought slowly to the boil, then simmered. Water boils when it gallops; fat when it is still. Puddink's made with suet should be stiffly mixed. When ketchup is used, be sparing With the salt. Green vegetables should be boiled fast, with the saucepan lid off. To leave bread or vegetables in stock or soup turns these eatables sour. Root vegetables should be boiled gently, with the lid on the pan. All vegetables, excepting old pota- toes, should be put into plenty of fast -boiling salted water. The liquor used in boiling meat or roots should never be thrown away. Soups and sauces may be made of it. Brbiled meat must be turned often; put the cut side to the fire. A handful of salt will often clear a fire from smoke for broiling. When baking powder has been used there must be no delay in baking. The bars of a gridiron should be greased and made hot before being used.. Meat from which soup or gravy is to be maed should be put into coldwater. If a pie or cake browns too quickly while baking, a sheet of paper should be laid on the top. Puddings should be plunged into plenty of- fast -boiling water, and kept boiling hard till clone. MUNICIPAL SANITATION. Proper Facilities for Destruction of Refuse Should be Provided. A garbage "dump" is a disgrace to ; any city or town. Of what advantage is it bo remove the numerous private rubbish -heaps to build up a gigantic communal rubbish -heap? Is the un-; sightliness or the dangerous filthiness in. any .wise reduced by piling all the! refuse into rine vast, festering, dis- ease-breeding•maass? It may be some advantage to- those parts of the town remota from the dump, but only at the expense of same other portion of the city and it is grossly unfair. No true citizen from d high-class residen- tial district could feel satisfied if the cleanliness of his particular portion of the town were achieved by the ubter spoiling of some other portion. Any man who is proud of his city would feel as much shame that there should be a filthy civic backyard as. thab his own backyard should be dirty. The only satisfactory method of removing refuse is to barn it in an incinerator or, failing that, to have it buried. "Your• husband is a great home -lov- er, isn't he?"
