The Brussels Post, 1912-11-7, Page 3Young Folks tneotaaananaactaerteatews Helping. Anna May camp home from the kindergarten and showed her mo- ther the things that she had made. A darning -basket that was full of stockings stood between the two, and upon this basket Anna May spread the treasures. Mother paueed in her mending to look at them. "I like to do this best," Anna May said, as she unfolded a pink and green paper mat woven in bas- ket -work. "That is just like the work I am doing," said mother. Anna May's eyes opened wide. "Why, mother," she cried, "you're darning!" "Yes," mother agreed. "But reel" She held a mended stocking close beside the woven paper mat. Anna May could see that the soft thread that mother used was woven in and out across the worn place in the stocking just as her paper slips were woven ; the tiny black squares showed in mother's pattern just as the pink and green squares showed in the paper mat. A lovely thought popped into Anna May's head! She had three brothers, and there was only mother to darn for them all I "Mo- ther," she begged, "may I learn to darn? And then we could do weav- ing together !" That was the beginning gf what Anna May called her new kind of kindergarten work, but what mo- ther declared was the best kind of home -helping. — Youth'e Compan- ion. ROYAL COUSINS. Aro Not Playmates, Because Their Mothers Do Not Agree. Considering the fact that the Princesses Victoria and Helen of Teck, the daughters of the Duke of Teck, Queen Mary's eldest brother, are about the same age as Princess Mary, it is curious that she should not find in them the playmates she has so often longed for, and that it has been necessary to find com- panions for her in the daughters of Lord Salisbury and the Duke of Devonshire, writes a London cor- respondent. The real reason for this is found in a series of disagreements which has grown up in the Teck family— in the old White Lodge days, surely the most united family to be found anywhere. The original cause of the trouble is the Duke of Teck's wife, formerly Lady Margaret Gros- venor, daughter of the late Duke of Westminster. The Queen's fav- orite brother is Prince Alexander, known among his pals as Prince "Algy," and the—as the Duchess considered — undue prominence given to him, made her Highness jealous. This, of course, caused ill - feeling between the two brothers, and did not improve matters be- tween the royal house and the Teaks; eventuallyit reached the "little pitchers," who, never very congenial to their shy little cousin, formed an alliance against her ,'which the parents have been unable to break. Queen Mary and the Duchess of Tock look at things in a totally different light. You have heard often enough of the rather old-fash- ioned ideas of her Majesty ; well, the Duchess is her exact opposite. The daughters of the first Duke of Westminster were always rather a go-ahead lot, and the unfettered country life they led made them in- dependent and free and easy. Hence, it is not difficult to discover how often her Majesty and her Highness are arrayed against each other on questions concerning the education, dressing, and general bringing-up of their children. To add to the trouble, it is said that the King and the Duke do not often see eye to eyo on military. matters. The Salisburya long enjoyed the friendship of the King and Queen before their daughter was allowed to become intimate with Princess ]nary, The Marchioness of Salis- bury has always been about the' court sineo she was quite young, and on several occasions, when the King was just "Prince. George," was able to help him out of quite innocent scrapes. Between these two a warm friendship grow tip, which has survived to this day. ARRESTED 151 TIMES.

Miss Barbara Wylie, the English )Tow a Sufferer from Sciatica Pound Permanent Relief. Fierce darting pains, pains like red hob needles being driven through the legs to the ankles — that's sciatica, None but the vic- tim can realize the torture of this trouble, and many suffer from 1t hopelessly in the belief that it can- not bo cured, This is a mistake; sciatica is a nerve trouble, and if the starved nerves are properly nourished with rich, red blood the treuble will soon disappear. Dr, Williams' Pink Pills make just the q w, pure blood needed to feed the sciatica nerve and drive out the racking pain. It has been proved over and over again that they can do this and we offer now the follow- ing additional piece of evidence. Mr. E. H. Pastorious, Harrow, One., says: "Some years ago I was terribly afflicted with sciatica, starting just in my hip and then ex- tending through the leg to the foot. At the time I was attacked I was away from home and had to be brought home on a mattress in a spring waggon, and the agony of the trip' was almost more than I could endure. Reaching home I was not able to sit up and remain- ed in bed for six weeks. The doc- tor did not help me and I tried a number of medicines recommended by neighbors. I paid $6.00 a"bottle for one preparation, but it was no better than the rest, and I began to think there was no cure for me. While suffering this untold misery Dr. Williams' Pink Pills were re- commended, and my wife got me a supply. In the course of a few weeks I began to feel better and could get around with the aid of a cane. I kept on taking the Pills, until all the pain disappeared and I,feltnts"well as ever I did. I have never had an attack of the trouble since, and although I am now 66 years of age I feel as vigorous as I did at 40, all of which I ascribe to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills." If you are suffering from sciatica or any nerve or blood trouble, be- gin to cure yourself to -day by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, which will assuredly do for you what they have done for others, if you give them a fair trial. Sold by all medicine dealers or by mail poet paid at 60 cents a box or six boxes for $2.60 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. A. Question of Economy. He—"We must economize.

These Pills Cure Rheumatism.— To the many who suffer from rheu- matism a trial of Parmelee's Vege- table Pills is recommended. They have a pronounced action upon the liver and kidneys and by regulat- ing the action of these organs act as an alternative in preventing the admixture of uric acid and blood that causes' this painful disorder. They must be taken according to directions and used steadily and they will speedily give evidence of their beneficial effects. "Do you believe that all men are created equal?" "I used to before I was married." , "And now?" "Now I find that I can't begin to compare with other women's hus- bands."

"Oh, weel, if I say Social the fowke willthink there's to be tea and buns, and then when they come they'll be disappinted and they'll blame me. Na, na. It canna be dune." So a compromise was effected and the meeting was announced under the non -existing auspices of the Women's Political Union. Trial is Inexpensive.—To those who suffer from dyspepsia, indiges- tion, rheumatism or any ailment arising from derangement of the di- gestive system, a trial of Parme- lee's Vegetable Pills is recommend- ed, should thea sufferer be unac- quainted with them. The trial will be inexpensive and the result will be another customer for this ex- cellent medicine. So effective is their action that many cures can certainly be traced to their use where other pills have proved in- effective. GERMAN GAMBLING. Vice Said to Have Great Hold in Berlin at Present. The recent losses and defalcations of prominent Berlin lawyers, bank managers, cash messengers and others, are calling public attention to the terrible extent to which the gambling mania prevails in modern Germany. The "Lokal Anzeiger" is devoting front-page space to a series of articles painting the craze in its true colors, in the hope that a moral will adorn the tale. Cards and racing, according,to Herr Kurt. Doerrv's exposures in the popular daily, have become an unconquer- able passion for Germans of high and low degree. Illicit betting on the races, he says, is one of the most invidious sourees of evil. Tradesmen who livingsell- ingsloe out a decent cannot ing tobacco or groceries are book- makers' agents in swot, and Snake it easy for wage-earners of both Sexes to risk ruin in Onthe horses. The Government in the Fatherland finds itself in a rather equivocal position in any attempt to frown upon the gambling mania, for state lotteries are an important institution in Ger- many, and lottery gambling is not only tolerated, but actively and sleeplessly encouraged. 1N What They Are.

ED. 4 SALOONS OF OLD LAND, Statistics Show 52 to Every 1,000 of Population, Figures just compiled by temper- ance organizations in the Old Land regarding England and Wales, show that there are 116,362 planes li- consed to eel' intoxicating liquors. Worked down to details there are 31,98 licensed premises per thou- sand persons. The statistics show that in England and Virales there are 91,247 premises licensed by jus- tices for the sale of intoxicating ( liquors for consumption, "on or off" the premises, known as "on" licenses. In addition there are 24,115 prem- ises licensed for sale for consump- tion off the premises, known as "off" licenses. The population of 1911 the last census), shows 36,075,269. There are therefore 25.29 on -licenses, and 6.69 off -licenses, or together, 31.98 li- censed premises per 1,000 persons. Since the passing of the Licensing Act, 1904. for the seven years, 1905 11, the average annual reduction in the number of "on" licenses has' heen about 1,366. With respect to "off" licenses, there has been a reduction as fol- lows: - 1st January, 1905, 24,405 or 7.47 per 10,000 population, a steady de- cline each year since then, until as we have already seen, there were on lot January, 1910, 24,115, or 6.69, a total decrease in the six years, 1,390. There are 7.912 registered clubs, an increase of 376 over the previous year. OF WHEN BABY IS ILL.
