"Let's think of something to do. Pll tell you; Niko this pincushion, and stick in all these new black and white pins." Robbie took the cushion, which looked like a plum rod matthess, and his face brightened. "I know what Pll play!" he cried. "Sokliers 1 The pincushion can bo the p'rade-ground, and I can have a sham battle like the one papa, took us to sec." It took some time to arrange the white pins all at one end of the pin- cushion, and the blaek ones at the other, for the lines had to be very straight and even. Robbie was so busy over it that he hardly noticed when his mother kissed him and slipped away, "I'm going to have the blue and red ones for officers," he said, for- getting that the was alone. "This fat, red-headed one will make a splendid general." It was quite exciting when Rob- bie made the cannons go boom 1 boom! and the soldiers fell over by dozens. The, fat, red general held out to the end, and behaved like a fine fellow. Then Robbie built forts and bar- ricades of black and white pins, from behind which the bine and red soldiers blazed away at each other with great Spirit. The black safety -pins were laid fiat on th•e cushion and held there by the oars four of which stuck out on each side. Blue -headed soldiers crouched in the bottom of the boat, while a tall, white -headed pin stood in the midst of them. So lifelike did it seem to Robbie that he could almost imagine that the tall pin had its arms folded and was trying with eager eyes to pierce the, darkness. "Hello, what's all this?" said a voice in his ear so suddenly that it made him jump. "Why, Arthur, mother said that you wouldn't be here for an hour," said Robie, "and now it's—why, it's more than an hour 1"—Youth's Companion, STORY OF BLACK BEADS. The :Necklace Was Worn By Mary, Queen of Scots. It is generally understood in London, England, among jewel lov- ers and connoisseurs—an increasing and very knowledgeable coterie— that the famous Mary Queen of Scots necklace of black pearls 'worn by her at her execution. at Fother- ingay Castle on February 8, 1587, has been bought for $100,000 by Mrs. Belmont of New Yosk. This necklace has an extraordinary wed romantic hiatosy. It was lost sight of for many years' and Andrew Lang asserts that itwas stolen from the queen'e neck by the execution- er, a dour Scotsman, who knew its value. The pearls vanished from human ken. About three years ago a London woman of title whose husband has a shooting box in Scotland was rummaging irt en old curiosity shop in a small Highland town. She came upon a string of blackish beads which rather took her fancy, and offered. $5 ler them. The offer was accepted. She brought her find, of which ehe did not know the value, back to Lon- don with her anti chanced to be wearing the necklaceono day at luncheon at the Savoy. A man who Was present and who appeared to know .something about pearls asked to look at it, and after examining it easefully, said: "Do you know you are wearing nn histone necklace? 1 have stud- ied this sort of thing rather closely, and I believe these are the missing Mary Queen of Scots pearls," The owner laughed at the absurd su•ggestion, but as a wise and cau- tious woman he took them te firm ef court jewelers, the finest and trustsvorthiest experts in the world, They •examined the necklaoe, fully confirmed the previous opinion, and offered to buy it for $60,000. Milady accepted the price, and to her tired it, be it said, sent $10,000 to the curiosity shop keeper in Scotland, The erstwhile beads—new historical black pearls—remained with the jewelers until recently, when Mrs. Belmont bought them at the afore, said price, The pearls, it seoms, are not in themselves intrinsically very valuable, having to a certain extent perished, as pearls will do, but, their authenticity is undoubted, and anyhow pearls have risen in value in the market at teat 100 per cent. in the last five years. There is a genuine Marie Antoinette pearl necklace now in the market for which the owner .asks $200,000, but no buyer has yet tuned up. t THAT WAS THE QUESTION, "What did the capitalist gay when you told him you had such a promising, scheme 1" "He said it was all right about Its proMiSing, but did it pay1" Women are weak, yet under a smile they will try to hide pain and suffering that any man could not bear patiently. If women would only remember that their frequent failures of health arise from feeble or impure bleed their lives would be smoother and they would lenges retain their natural charm. When the blood fails then begin those dragging backaches and headaches; unrefreshing sleep that causes clerk lines under the eyes; dizziness; fits of depression; palpi- tation or rapid fluttering of the heart; hot rashes and indigestion. Then the cheeks grow pale, the eyes dull and the complexion blem- ished. Women should knowstbat much of this suffering is needless and can be promptly remedied. Purify and enrich the blood through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and your suffering will vanish. Thousands of women know that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have brightened their lives by making the new, good bleed of health, and so toning up all the vital organs into healthy, vigorous a,ction. Here is an in- stance from among the many. Miss Cora Cornell, St. Cathanues, Ont., says: "Ever since the age of fourteen I have • suffered terribly with pains in my back, and eevere headaches. I was also much trou- bled with indigestion anti had to be extremely careful as to my diet, and sometimes did not feel like eating at all. Some two years ago the headaches became so bad that I had to give up my position, which was clerking in a store, where, of course, I was constantly on my feet. I took a position in an of- fice, where I could be seated most of the time, but even then I suf- fered terribly most of the time. Asi the medicine I had been taking did not help me I finally decided to try. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I got a supply, and soon felt they were helping me and I continued taking the pills for several months until I felt perfectly well. Although my doctor advised me not to go back to my old position, I decided to do so, and have not felt any ill effect. I never have backache now, sel- dom a headache, and all traces of the indigestion have disappeared. I cannot speak too highly of Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills and I hope this letter will help someone who suffers as 1 used to."

SOOTHING MIXTURES DANGEROUS TO CHILDREN Mixtures sold under the name "soothing" are usually dangerous to the life of the little ones whom they are supposed to help. They contain opiates and narcotics and and sleep prompted through their use is false sleep—to be plainer, the little one is drugged into insen- sibility. The only absolutely guar- anteed remedy for little ones—the only remedy backed by the guaran- tee of a government analyst to con- tain no opiates, narcotics or other harmful drugs is Baby's Own Tab- lets., They cannot possibly do harm —they always do good. Thousands of mothers have learned their value. They help not only the newborn babe, but also the growing child..

Arsenault, a Justice of the Peace, and station master at Wellington, on the Prince Edward Island Railway, says: "Four years ago I slipped in the station and fell on a freight truck, sustaining a bad cut on the front of my leg, I thought this would heal, but instead of doing so it developed into a bad ulcer, and later into a form of eczema which spread very rapidly and also started on the other leg, Both legs became so swollen and sore that I could only go about my work by having them bandaged. My doctor said I must stop work and lay up. "After six months of this trouble I consulted another doctor, but with no better result. I tried all the salves, liniments and lotions I heard of, but instead of getting better I got worse. "This was my condition when I got my first box of Zam-Buk. Greatly to my delight that first box gave me re- lief. I continued to apply it to the sores, and day by day they got better. I could see that at last I had got hold of something which would cure me,1 and in the end it did.
