The Brussels Post, 1912-5-2, Page 3ow.v.w."..."-a.4-"AboTSPRING BLOOD IS WATERY BLOOD Fashion Hints SEEN IN PARIS SHOPS, For practical wear navy blue is much in favor, The way of the one-sided trim- ming is still with us, Odd colors aro especially popular just now in millinery. Every ether corsage is in the Marie Antoinette effect, Brown hats are being worn with tan colored cloth costumes. Gray marquisette sometimes veils dresses of checked taffetas. Pique is one of the moat popular materials for summer wear. Silver fringes are a favorite fin- ish to gray chiffon Overdresses, Double and triple skirts aro fash-, ionable for lingerie dresses, Violet velvet faces some of the graceful hats of amethyst straw. Graceful picture hats of straw are large as to brim as well as crown. Panniers are plentiful; they un- doubtedly betoken wider skirts for the future. The tailored straw hats are ac- ceptable to those women who pre- fer plain styles. Brocaded silks, not in the large, but in the small and delicate fig- ures, are to be in great demand. For dinner gowns and evening wear nothing is so popular as the lace trimmed chiffon or satin gown or pure white, with one glowing note of color at the corsage. Long lines of small capricious bows are placed on skirts and bo- dices. Velvet ribbon, satin or silk are employed for these, with a buckle or button in the center. The all enveloping and disguising bell shapes in hats have given place to other hats of entirely different form, the broad, fiat, picturesque hat being undeniably popular. Tissue eponge, or Turkish towel- ing, now appears in many colors, but its chief use is in white summer suits, and it will to some extent supplant serge and flannel for these. In this season's silks we find no- ticeable the combination of plain with changeable, flowered with stripes, bordered effects with plain and spotted panels with one tone silks. Among the leading colors are the various shades of tan, including champagne, hazel and straw, also nut and wood browns. Rose, Indi- an reel, opal, lim.ogos blue, shrimp and melon pink are the high shades. Ruffles and flounces appear ev- erywhere on frocks for every occa- sion, narrow edged with ]ace, or deep, or graduated, or pointed, or scalloped, with posies and pert rib- bon bows tucking them up here and there. All of the new skirts are cut wid- er, and yet many do not measure any more in width than those that have been smart this season. There is a little more fullness around the upper part, and no good skirt draws in around the knees.. SUICIDES IN JAPAN. Tiara-I(iri Out of Date; Modern Way, Jumping Into Volcanoes. The Japanese are now busy debat- ing the ethics of suicide. The ease out of which the controversy has arisen is that of the station master tit Moji, who because of a mishap to the imperial train which made it necessary for the Emperor to ad journ for half an hour to a waiting- room showed his repentance by throwing himself under the wheels of the express, says the Pall Mall Gazette. The station master's devotion having evoked a wave of popular admiration which took shape in a proposal to eruct a monument to his memory, the nation has been re- buked by the president of the Ky- ushu University for thus glorifying an act of self-destruction'. and the latter, finding himself! out of tune with public opinion, has resigned his position. It is a singular thing that among a people so cheerful as the Japanese suicide, should be so common, Ten thousand destroy themselves every year in Japan, and the, figures can- not be -said to be diminishie..g. But hara-kiri. as such is out of irate. The modern victims of the suicidal mania,. when they do not throw themselves in front of it train, jump into the crater of an active volcano., Asama, in central Japan and Aso sun, in Ilyusha, 'have both acquired a sinister reputation in this respect, It is, however, a disquieting sign! of the times ,to find the student class resorting so largely to suicide --especially of the spectacular sort, and this, no doubt, a De. Yamaka- wa's motive in protesting against the exaltation of an net which the Christian world regards as a griev- ous sin, SCIENTIFIC GARDENING. "Brown has already ;started to Omit .seeds in his gardeat." "So early?" "Yes. He ways he wants to get 3d;' done while his neighbor's bete are busy setting." How to Got New Health and New Strength at This Season Spring ailments are not imagin- ar;,. Even the most robust find the winter mesas most trying to their health. Confinement indoors, of- ten in overheated and nearly always badly ventilated nooms—in the home, the office, the shop and the school—taxes the vitality of even the strongest, The blood becomes thin and watery and is clogged with impurities. Some people have head- aches and a feeling of langour. Others are low-spirited and nerv- ous. Still others are troubled with disfiguring pimples and skin erup- tions, while some get up in the morning feeling just as tired as when they went to bed. These are all spring symptoms that the blood is out of order and that a medicine is needed. Many people take pur- gative medicines in the spring. This is a serious mistake. You can- nel" euro yourself with a medicine that gallops through your system and leaves you weaker still, This is all that a purgative does. What you need to give you health and strength in the spring is a tonic medicine that will enrich the blood and soothe the jangled nerves. And the one always reliable tonic and blood builder is Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. These pills not only banish spring weakness, but guard you against the more serious ailments that follow, such as anaemia, nerv- ous debility, indigestion, rheums- tism, and other diseases due to bad blood. In proof of this Mrs. Emma Duck, Carleton ;Place, Ont., says i "I was greatly troubled with wear spells, dizziness and extreme nerv- ousness, and did not find anything to help mo until acting on the ad- vice of an aunt I began the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. After using five boxes I found my health fully restored and cheerfully re- commend the pills to others." If you are ailing this spring you cannot afford, in your own inter- est, to overlook so valuable a medi- cine as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

German Emperor Cried on Hearing 01 Ring's Death. The Kaiser's affection for the late King Edward was much more deep- ly rooted than the outside world will ever know. When the news was broken to him, says the Strand, that his beloved uncle had passed away, those about him declare that the Emperor utterly broke down— possibly the only occasion upon re- cord—and, putting his head on his arm, sobbed quietly to himself for several moments. Once he had recovered from the first shock, however, the innate man of action asserted himself. As though half ashamed of the weak- ness into which he had been be- trayed, he gruffly, and in his most peremptory manner, gave instruc- tions for instant preparations to be made for his immediate departure for London, adding that his se- verest displeasure would be incur- red by any one who delayed for even a few moments. TAKING NO CHANCES. A COI'FINLESS FUNERAL. Festive Scotch Mourners Loft Re, mains on the Read. The Bacchanalian. funeral in Italy, which took half a they to reaeh the burial place, in; very like what Dean ltanlaay tells of bygone Scotland, says the London Chroni- cle. There was the old maiden lady of Strathspey, who bade her grand- nephew to see that as much whisky was used at her funeral as had been used at his baptism. The church• yard was ten miles tresis her home; it was a short November day ; and night was closing in when the fun- eral procession arrived, "But whaur's Miss Ketty?" asked the gravedigger, and being answered, "In her coffin, to be sure," he still missed the coffin. The, party, dur- ing a halt at a wayside inn, had rested it an a dyke, and forgotten it when they resumed their way; and the interment had to be post- poned until the next clay. "Why don't you put a `Wet paint' sign on your porch?" 'Nor; much. I did that last year and all who passed rubbed their fingers over it to see if it really was.

A MOTHER'S PRAISE OF BABY'S OWN TABLETS Mrs. Wm. Sullivan, Main River, N. B., says: "Up to the time my baby was three months old it cried almost continually day and night. I tried many things, but got no- thing to help it until a neighbor advised Baby's Own Tablets, I get a box 'of these and there was a change almost after the first dose and in a short time the child was in the best of health, and is now a big, fat, good-natured baby. I am now never without the Tablets in the house and recommend them to other mothers."

Amble Lamarche Tells ILow Itis !Kidney Disease Developed and How be got Relief When lie Used the One Sure Cure. Lefaivre, Ont., Aped 15 (Special) —Another splendid cure by Dodd's Kidney Pills is the talk if this vil- lage. Mr. Arnaldo Lamarche is the person cured and the cure is vouch- ed for by his numerous friends, "It was a sprain incl a cold that was the beginning of my trouble," Mr. Lamarche says in telling his story, "I coukl not sleep, my ap- petite was fitful and I felt heavy and sleepy after meals. I was al- ways thirsty, had a bitter taste in my mouth and perspired freely. My limbs were heavy and I had a drag- ging sensation across the loins. "When my symptoms developed into rheumatism I realized that my kidneys were the cause of the treu- ble and I started to take Dodd's Kidney Pills, Six boxes made trio a well man." Kidney trouble quickly develops into nainfui and often fatal dis- eases. To ensure good health, cure the first symptoms with Dodd's Kidney Pills. They never fail. ADVENTIST SOLDIER WON OUT Spent Seven Years in Jail Rather Than 'Work Saturdays. The ease. of the German soldier Naumann, who as an Adventist re- fused to work on Saturdays and spent several years in military im- prisonment in consequence,, has been thrown into the shade by the fanatical obstinacy of another sol- dier name& Mugge, a follower of the same aect. Naumann put in three, years in prison and then changed his mind, agreed to work on Saturdays like the rest of his comrades and is still serving in the ranks. Mugge spent in all seven years in prison for re- fusal to obey orders and main- tained his attitude to the fast. No arguments had the least effect; his position was that where the law of God conflicted with the laws of men the latter had to be disregarded. Mugge, like Naumann, was exam- ined as to his sanity, but the doc- tors came to the' conclusion that he was in full possession of his facul- ties. There was every prospect of his remaining in prison for the rest of his life when a change in his cir- cumstances leer to his release. He fell ill, the doctors made a micro- scopical examination of his blood and finally certified that he was un- fit for military service. The result was that one morning Mugge was set free. The Kaiser had exercised his right of pardon. Mrs. Meyser-"Could you give me a little money, my dear?" Mr. Meyser -- "Certainly, my dear. About how little?" In the most densely populated section of Bombay, India, there is located a hospital where maimed and homeless animals are cared for. This is only one of many such hospitals in India, which are under the management of the Jains, a sect, one article of whose creed is that one shall de no harm to ani- mals, but that they shall protect their lives and minister to their ills, In describing the Bombay insti- tution, a writer in Harper's Week- ly says that one enters in the first piece a court surrounded by sheds, in the midst of which are kept a number ,of oxen. There is said to be nowhere in this world a more novel sight than this acseanbly of sick animals. Some have bandages Ion their eyes; others lame cm in a !helpless condition, are comfortably stretched upon clean straw. Then attendants rub (them down wad bring the blind and paralyzed their food. • From this eourt the, visitor passes into another of more limited ex- tant, containing dogs and cats. A little farther on is an enclosure re- served for bipeds. Aged crows spend their remaining days in this paradise of the brute creation in company with bald vultures and buzzards that have seen their best days. At the other end of the court there is as enclosure for rano ducks, herons, and other wquetio birds, All thev'domestic animals and those that dwell in the vicinity of man, have their representatives. Rats are seed here in groat num• bars and display remarkable tame - nese; mice, sparrows, peacocks and jackals have their asylum in this reran&e hospital. HE HAD YET TO FIND IT.

CONt'I1.1)TING IN WINTER. Materials Heated by Steam- iiig Through Conoreting in winter at'tempela-. tures not exceeding 10 degrees to 15 degrees Fahrenheit was success- fully carried on in the, ease of a large reinforced eonerete ware- house at Deiavan, Wis, The outer walls of the structure were of brick .and were built up to a height a little above each floor level before the concrete was poured. The con- crete plant was in the basement, and the materials were heated by steam passing through a. large coil of ;4 -i»ch pipe, exhausting into the water barrels at the concrete mix- er. The materials were clumped directly over the stea'ln pipe, which was laid in the form of a continuous coil. It was considered that this arrangement afforded better circu- lation of steam heat than the use of parallel pipes and headers. At first exhaust steam was used in the coils, hut later the full boiler pressure was employed, and it is stated that the latter method gave much better results. In this way the tempera- ture of the concrete was kept be- tween, 50 degrees and 60 degrees. After the concrete was poured it was covered with canvas and sala- manders were placed on the floor below, one salamander being em- ployed to about 600 square feet of floor space. TERRIBLE RESULT or BLOOD POISON. After 'Three Operations Zaln-Iluk Was Tried and. Preyed Successful. If people would only use Zam- Buk for chronic sores, blood -poison, etc., before permitting an opera- tion, scores of limbs would be sacred, Me•Robt. Patterson of North Pel- ham, Welland Co., Ont., writes: "My daughter, Annie, hacl blood- poison"in her finger. The doctor operated twice on the finger, but did not obtain the desired result, and a third operation was consid- ered necessary. "Three doctors were present at this operation, but after it bad been performed the wound did not Ileal. Try as we would we could not get anything to close the wound. "We at last tried Zam-Buk, and it was really wonderful to watch how this balm healed the wound. Each day there was a marked im- provement. First the wound incite palm of the hand closed, and then the finger which had been bad so long began to heal. The diseased flesh seemed to rise out of the wound and then deep off, and new healthy flesh formed from below, pushing off the diseased tissue. In a short time the wound was complete- ly healed. Had we applied Zam- Buk at first we might have saved the finger. For chronic sores, blood -poison, ulcer's, abscesses, scalp sores, piles, eruptions, inflamed •patches, ec- zema, cuts, burns, bruises, and all skin injuries and diseases Zam-Buk is without equal. 50c. box all drug- gists rumsgists and stores, or post free from Zam-Buk Co., Toronto, for price.
