the father of the writer, has estimated
the period of slumber taken standing
up to average about four hours in the
twenty-four, and his estimate has been
employed by the son in an amusing
passage for one of his stories, "Motl

an hour's. fidgeting on one side 9,nd a

is said to be growing the most rapidly,
Th.e most artistically built of the
cities of the new world, it renainds
the visitor of Madrid or Paris. This

187,000; in 1887, 429,000; in 1895,
855,000; in 1904, 951,000; tto census
of 1910 brought It up to 1,232,117 while
the population since that time has
grown astonishingly. The Mayor, in

HOW TO NUT CONSUMPTION
The Grand Duchess of Hesse has
hit upon a novel scheme for propa-
gating the knowledge of how to light
consumption, On her recent -deft to
a hygiene exhibition at Darmstadt she
saw some match boxes with printed
instructions on the reverse side what
ID do and what not to do in order
to avoid the spread of tubercular
contagion. The boxes were samples.
Several billion had been made to the
order of some South American gov-
ernment. The Grand Duchess has now
succeeded in inducing all the match
manufacturers ot the Grand Duchy to

Real Pearl Toilet Powder 'e
• Some of the moist beautiful women
of Edrope use a face powder that is
raade from pearl dust; that Is, real
pearls ground to a powder, according
to a current newspaper report, It is
far more expensive than the so-called
'poudre de perles sold in shops, which
is merely mothermapearl crushed.
The real pearl powder originated in
the East, At a certain pearl mer-
chant's place In the Levant, several
girls were employed to bore holes
through the gems for the purpose of
stringing. Some of the girls noticed
that a few of their compenions were
acquiring brilliant complexions, For
some Urn° they could not induce them
to tell what they were using, but at
length the secret was out, and pear]
powder thereafter became 10 great de-
mand as a facial beautifice.
Poverty Unknown in Stryta
Though the progress of Servia hae
been disappointing, eald to be due in

with two native dynasties, yet poverty
is almost nnknOwn. The peasantry
is proeperous, almost all bein.g seta
land -owners and quite wee -teeth.

Mr. C. Grace, Hamilton, Ont,, writes:
—"I waS Suffering with a lame back, and
for two weeks was not able to straighten
up to walk, and hardly Able to sit clown
for the pains in my back, hips, ane legs.
I had used different kinds of pills, plas-
ters, liniments and medicines, without
any relief. One day / read about Doen's
Kidney Pills and decided to try them.
Before I had half a box used I felt a great
deal better, and by the time I had used
two boxes; I was cured. I heve no hesita-
tion in recommending Dean's Eidney
Pills."

easy. Demand for butter fair, with priest
