"For years I was thin and delicate, I lost color and was easily tired; a yellow pallor, 'pimples and blotches on my face were not only mortifying to my feelings, but because I thought My skin would never look nice again I grew despondent. Then my appetite failed. 1 grew very weak. Various remedies, pills, tonics, and tablets I tried without permanent benefit. A visit to my sister put into my hands a box of Dr. Hamilton's Pills. She placed reliance upon them and now that they have made me a well woman I would pot be without them whatever they might cost. I found Dr, Hamil- ton's amidton's Pills by their mild. yet searching action very suitable to the delicate character of a woman's nature. They never once griped me, yet they estab- lished regularity. My appetite grew keen—my blood red and pure—heavy rings under my eyes disappeared and to -day my skin is as. clear and un- wrinkled as when I was a girl. Dr. Hamilton's Pills did it all." The above straightforward letter from Mrs. J. Y. Todd, wife of a well- known miller in Rogersville, is proof sufficient that Dr. Hamilton's Pills are a wonderful woman's medicine.

The King has impressed every- body at St. James' Palace both by his industry and the businesslike way in which he gets 'through his work. The amount of correepon- d•enee which his Majesty must per- sonally deal with tends ever to in- crease, and though Lord Stamford - ham relieves the King of as much work as possible, there remains af- ter the most exhaustive sifting suf- ficient to keep the monarch occupied for several hours a day. It is pose sible that the King, if he liked, could deputize most of his work, but, like his father, the hate Sing Edward, he takes the perfectly cor- rect view that it would be injudi- cious to put his name or give his assent to ,any cloolune:nt or plan which he had net himself .or studied. Besides, to one of his :Ma.- jesty'e el:early defined views, tacit agreem,ent`on some matters :would be highly repugnant. 'The "Wake-. up -England" Sing believes in look- ing into =thinge for himself. His Majesty is an early riser. Generally breakfast is served up- stairs, a light meal over which very few moments are spent. Then, if the King has not a morning e'n- gagement, he attends to his private correspondence, which often means dealing with a score of letters daily. Some letters he dictates, other he writes himself, autographed letters mostly being to royal relatives. Then comes the business of dealing with State oorrespendence,` an o•r- deal which keeps Lord Stamfordham and his staff occupied the whole day. No letter directed :to the King, ex- cepting it be from a crank or a. mad- man, who frequently pick out roy- alties far their effusions,, goes un- answered. It May be a, mere for- mal acknowledgment or it may con- tain an expression of the King's feelings. Whatever the case, the courtesy of an early reply may al- ways be expected from the Palace. Comment on Events Getting • at the ]yeart. It is a great glrt'to be able to .sift the` wheat from the chaffe and•it was a habit of mind with Goldwin Srxith .always to let the mud settle. He wanted to see clear to'the heart of a question after all the irrelevancies had blown away, and his was an intellect which could pierce through clouds of rhetoric and seize up- on the one little central bit of fact or theory over which rival writers or talk- ers were beating the air.

So with the whole .question of paper money and the right and ability of the state to manufacture dollar bills ad libitum which once so agitated the western continent of America. "People do not see," he said, "that a dollar bill is not money. It is a mere promise to pay. When it, changes hands credit passes at the bank of issue from the giv- er to the receiver." So with the whole question of Socialism. "Socialists," over and over again he has said to me, "tell us that 'the state' 'should be the sole owner, manufacturer. landlord and ?

It is well perhaps now and again to recall these 'small solid facts beneath" the surface of life. The world still goes on the same old way. establishing the- ories and mistaking them for practice. Busy NEW HOPE' FOR .SUFFERERS FJROM PARALYSIS Thera are cases of paralysis that cannel; 'be cured.: But .that is far .differelit from saying that every corse of paralysis is incurab.le. There is absolute proof that many formsof this disease are' curable.. Of the cases .that cannot be c'ure'd. many can be so benefitted that the formerly hopeless sufferer will Ualee more find her life worth living, Attention is called tot the remark- able cures that have. been effectedd. in eases of partial paralysis, and other severe ner T•oas disorders, by the use of Dr, Williams . Pink Pills for. Pale People: Some of these cures are ,sc wonderful aa to cha.1 lenge belief, .but in .every case the statements have been carefully verified and may be. investigated by anyone interested. In this connec- tion the case of Miss B, Millehan, of St. John, N,B•, is worthy of the most careful attention. Miss Mille- ha,n Kays ; "Sonne three years ago I was taken seriously ill with diph- theria. The doctor brought me safely through this dreaded trou- bia, and I was ,assumed to be well. Buttwo weeks later I took a re - .lapse, my throat and liinbs becom- ing paralyzed. I could neither speak nor walk, I was ander the best of medical care, and after `a few weeks was able to :sit up in bed, but my throat• was still com- pletely paralyzed and I could only utter unintelligible .sounds. I was treated by three of St. J'ohn's best physicians for this "trouble and my case was given up as hopeless. A friend asked me to. try Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills, but I had spent so much on medicine without help that I thought• it would be only a further waste of looney. However, I felt myself growing daily weaker and weaker, and I decided as a last chance that I would try the Pills. By the time I had taken a half-dozen boxes I could walk across the floor, something doctors had told file could never happen again, I still continued taking the pills, my speech returned, and I felt myself in perfect health. My friends thought my restoration nothing short of amiracle,, and I think myself that I Have to thank I)r. Williams' Pink Pills that I am being, to -day, and I -feel confident they can do quite as =oh for others as they did for me." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills effect cures in ease's of this kind 'because they make new, ricah, red blood,' which feeds and strengthens the nerves, and tones up the whole sys- tem. If you are in need of amedi- eine give these pills a trial. We are confident you will not be disap- pointed.

Dr. Aureliano Urrutia,, a noted Mexican surgeon, was interested in the case and consented to operate to remove the cataract. Huerta en- tered Dr. TTriutia's sanitarium at Tlalpam, a suburb of Mexico City, and the operation was performed without the use of an a,uaesthetic, •it:is said. "Cut it off," Huerta told the surgeon, a,nd Dr. Urrutia, as cold- blooded as Huerta, proceeded to do it. Huerta is a matt to play a big game. Conscience he has none, or his waking moments would be awild ';delirium of remorse, and his nights a mad fantasy in which the spirits `of thousands of slain would hover over his coach and in fearful aocu- e,at%on shake at him their skeleton fingers.

They promote sleep — not the drugged unnatural kind obtained through th•e use of "soothing" mix- tures, but that refreshing natural sleep of the healthy child. The Tablets banish all stomach and bowel complaints—the direct cause of crossness and sleeplessness. Concerning them Mrs. E. Medras, Grand Bois, Que., says : "When I began using Baby's Own Tablets baby was so troubled with ooai'stipa- tion he would not sleep day ar night: Now all this trouble has vanished and he is a 'strong healthy child."

ARE PLANETS INHIBITED., Scientist Says Venus and Mars Are —Seasons Like Ours. That Venus and Mars, in our own planetary system, are surely in: h.abited by human beings of some kind is the•assertriion of T. T. J. See, who writes on that subject in a re- cent issue of Leslie's Weekly. Con- tinuing, he says that observation's show that Mara has a rare atmos- phere, a day thirty-seven minutes Longer than ours, seasons of the same type, but no longer duration, and snow cap's at the poles, aii�l thus water vapor, though the amount is small. 'llhe probability of Venus being in- habited is mush greater than that of Mars; for Venus rotates in twenty-one minutes, and in all re- spects so closely resembles the earth as to be called her twin sister, Ve- nus has an abundanee of air, clouds,: water and also mountains, and therefore seas, lakes and rivers.

At an average cost of less than one -cent per square mile, 15,203 miles of Dominion Crown timber- lands in the Northwest were exam- ined last summer by forest survey parties sent out by the Forestry Branch of the Department of the Interior. The Philippine Islands, which are extremely heavily wooded, :are sup- posed to contain 200,000,000,000 feet, board m'e'asure, of timber. This is about one-third the esti- mated timber wealth of Canada, not including pulpwood, of which there are approximabely 400,000,000 cords. With the opening of the Panama Canal, the development of the for- est resources of the near -by tropi- cal countries should receive consid- erable stimulus. The wood of the mangrove tree, which grows along the low-lying eoasts of British Guiana and adjacent •countries, is said to be twice as strong as oak, and, when stood on end, will sus- tain without crushing a load of 8 tons to 'the square inch. It is said to be immune from decay, which, with its greet strength, makes it an ideal wood for railway ties. Five thousand cords of poplar are used annually in Canada for the manufacture of excelsior, accord- ing to ,statistics recently gathered by the Dominion Forestry Branch, The wood must he clear of knots', peeled, and cut into four -foot lengths, to command the highest price from the manufacturer. In Switzerland , .excelsior is'chi y made from pine and fir and is used largely for upholstering, forit re= tains its elasticity longer than hair and the •small percentage of resin in the wood is said to protect the fur- nitere from moths.
