The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by nail at 65 cents a box from The Dr. Williams Medicfn:o Co„ Brockville, Ont, Peeps into Palaces.

William of Orange was an excellent trencherman, and would sit five and six hours at table. Napoleon paralyzed his faculties by failing to digest a shoulder of mutton stuffed with anions, and, in consequence, lost the battle of Leipzig. Frederick ate enormously, and, in keeping with his snuff -taking, was passionately fond of pepper. Every dish came to the royal table . as hot as possible, a climate. stance which led a gaest to remark that a certain pie looked and tasted "as if it had been baked in hell," An orgy of ripe peaches and new ale proved fatal to King John, of Magna Charts fame, and the invincible Ate niada was dispatched by a Spanish Monarch whose digestion had been ruined by over -indulgence in pastry, Lord Roberts's antipathy 'to eats Is well remembered, but, centuries be - foie, Henry VIII: of France ' had a bimilar dislike, and could not remain in a room with the domestic tabby, The sight of an apple made Ladislaus, King of Poland, tremble violently, while Ivan II, Czar of Moeoow, must perforce have led the life of a recluse, for he fainted regularly at the appear- ance of a woman. ROMANTIC HISTORY OF NEW SCOTLAND YARD, c1 'ow'Cr"Statian" of ,the Finest of Police Forces, Famous the Work' Over. How many people aro aware that Scotland Yard draws its mune from the "magnificent palace, with tarso pleasure gaounds extending to the ,Tllalnese' which was onto the old 1.1011- don home of Scotland's kings? ' It wits on t:he•site of this old-time royal palace that Ilia Metropolitan 1'oiice read their.11eadnuarters, when the "now police" wero formed• by Sir Robert .'Peel In 1829, And when, a quarter of 11 century o.go, these rather sordid ivatters were exchanged for the ,somewhat grim and rortrees-like building which dominates the Thames at Westminstea the name went with them, and the prefix "New" was added; to it, New Scotland Yard Is the "power•- station'.' of the finest police force in the world. It is the centre of a vast system of crime -prevention and detec- tion welch spreads its network over anarea of nearly 700 square miles. Its kingdom stretches for fifteen miles in every direction. from Charing Cross, and it counts fourteen pollee courts within its bounds. Its army of constables, and sergeants, inspectors and superintendents, number over 22,- 000; and it has outposts as far away as Pembroke dockyard .and Rosyth. In New Scotland Yard• is a room wiljoh- holds more secrets tliah any other in London. It is the nerve- ceutre of lilngland'e detective sys-tem,. for it is In this room that the council, composed of tho chief experts in every branch of crime, hold their meetings to unravel the tangled skeins of tragedy. A Room of Secrets, Within a tow minutes after a mys- terious murder has been reported to the nearest Police station the news has been flashed to New Scotland Yard, and almost before the loeal men have. started their inquiries a member of the council appears on the scene and takes charge of the operations. If the problem is a simple one, the services of the council are usually not required. But if there is no sufficient clue to the assassin, or he has made good his es- cape, the council takes the case in hand, - All the available evidence is thor• oughly sifted, deductions are made, a plan of campaign is drawn up, and the whole of the complicated and . far- reaching machinery de Scotland Yard is set to work, ander the collective guidance of the cleverest detective brains in England. No loss wonderful is Scotland Yard's work in tracking persons lost in Lon- don, who number- over 30,000 in an average year, Let us take a typical ease, that of a young clerk who dis- appears `as -completely as 1f the earth' had swallowed him. Within a few minutes of the disap- pearance being reported to Scotland Yard a description of the missing youth is being telegraphed to every station in London. Two or more "special inquiry officers" are quickly on the trail. They inquire at every hospital, search every doubtful resort, and every nook and coiner where there is any hope of discovering him or getting a clue. At Scotland Yard the printing presses are soon busy pouring out copies of the "Gazette," containing fuller details of the lost clerk, and these are distributed to every police. station in London, wbere the descrip- tion is read to each batch of con- stables. It there is any reason to suspect crime, the work of search is taken up by the Criminal Investigation Depart- ment, 'Detectives are soon "ferreting" in all directions, questioning everyone who knows the young man as to his habits, haunts, when and where they last saw him, and so on; and explor- ing every dark plane in London to which he might conceivably have been hired. Waited for the Bounce. As the 'visa police recruit Strolled along on his first. tarn of night duty, loud yells of "Fire." rent the air. He bolted quickly to the spot and found a house well alight, with a man ltaif hanging out of an upstairs window. • "Tielp! Helps" he yelled. If I jump, will you catch me?" 'Sure, an' 01 will!" rep/led the policeman readily. So the Juan jumped, only to crash to the greuud and lie there stunned. When, a few, minutes later, he re- covered consciousness, he looked up at the constable reproachfully and no mored feebly: "I thought you said you could catch tie?"
