• OF UNIVERSE
OURS IS PROBABLY ONLY
ONE OF MANY,
Modern Ideas on Subject of
Creation Are Undergoing
Enormous Expansion.
The high priest of Babylonia and
Egypt, 3,000 years and more ago, had
a considerable knowledge of astrono-
my; hut, leaving out of question the
few thus learned in science, creation
to the ancients was a three-story af-
fair, or rather two stories and a cel-
lar, the latter being tho abode of the
dead while on the second floor, orna-
mentally bespangled with stars, dwelt
the gods,
Earth, of course, was flat. The sun
pass.od across the heavens once in
every twenty-four hours, and, going
under, appeared again in the east next
morning, There was also the moon,
which had a similar habit; and that
was about all there was of the cosmos.
Since then our ideas on the subject
have vastly expanded, and now, in
view of recent discoveries, they seem
destined to expand enormously be-
yond anything hitherto imagined. We
are beginning -to grasp th'e notion of
other universes outside of our own—
at distances from our own universe
well nigh inconceivable.
Sun is in Motion.
The Rev. Jasper declared that "the
sun do move." He was right. Not
only does it revolve on its own axis
(as niay be plainly seen by the "spots"
which travel across its disk), but it is
moving in a straight line through
space, like a gigantic projectile, at a
speed of at least ten miles a second.
As it thus moves, the earth and its
sister planets, of course, go with it.
Astronomers in the course of cen-
turies, have actually been able to ob-
serve this movement, - by the closer
gathering of stars in the sun's wake
and the widening out of constellations
ahead of us—just as might be noticed
of trees and houses passed or ap-
proached in a railroad train.
All the stars are slugs, most of them
much bigger than our own solar lumi-
nary, and every one of them is travel-
ling at.a terrific speed. The so-called
Runaway Star (known to astronomers
as 1830 Groombridge) is going at a
rate of 200 miles a'second; What
imaginable power could have sot ail
these suns in motion? And wby are
they all travelling in different direc-
tions, apparently? Our own seeming
destination is the constellation Lyra.
It is now thought probable that our
universe, which we call the Milky
Way (we seem to be not far from the
centre of it) is in reality a vast spiral
in form, and that this spiral is revolv-
ing, so to speak, in its own plane. As-
suming this to be true, the straight
line in which our sun appears to travel
is actually a curve.
Whirling of the Universe.
What has led to this belief is obser-
vation of other spirals which are now
thought to be distant universes, many
of them so far away that light from
them, travelling 186,000 miles a second,
takes something like 10,000,000 years
to reach' us. Their form plainly
shows that they are revolving.
Everything in the cosmos seems to
go round and round. The moon trav-
els around the earth, the earth around
the sun; and presumably the sun is
following an orbit about some centre,
whether a giant sun or merely a point
in space. Our universe (if the theory
above outlined be accepted) is whirl-
ing. Probably, as it whirls, it le -Mak-
ing a journey of its own about some
centre, perhaps in concert with other
universes.
Space being infinite in extent, it is,
when one comes to think of it, absurd
for us to imagine that ours is the only
universe.
We shall never know. Bait at least
we inay claim that our ideas on the
subject of creation are expanding.

clan Regain Health aud Strength
Through Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills.
Many women who had a good color
in their girlhood grow pale and color-
less when they become wives and
mothers. When the fading color in
the cheeks and lips is accompanied by
a loss of brightness in the eyes and
an increasing heaviness in the step,
the cause will be found in the state of
the blood.
Many causes contribute to the con
dition of the blood known as anaemia
Overwork in the home, a lack of ou
door exercise, insufficient rest an
sleep, improper diet—these are a fe
of them. The important thing is t
restore the blood to normal, to buil
it up so that the color will return t
cheeks and lips, brightness to the eye
and lightness to the step. Dr. Wil
Hams' Pink Pills are the great bloo
builder and nerve strengthener. The
begin with the very first dose, an
through a fair use make new bloo
that carries strength and health t
every part of the body. The appetit
increases, digestion becomes ]nor
perfect and energy and ambition re
turn. - The case of Mrs. Wm. McNish
Abbott Street, Brockville, proves th
value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in
casee of this kind. Mrs. MoNish says
"I was quite young when I married
and in raising my fancily I became al
run down and a nervous wreck. I be
came so weak that I could hardly
walk across the floor without sitting
down to get my breath., I slept poorly
and at times my nerves would twitch
so that I could not keep still, and I
was in constant misery. I tried many
medicines but they did not help me;
indeed my condition was growing
worse, until one day a friend told me
that she had been in a somewhat simi-
lar condition and had been helped by
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, so I decided
to try this medicine. After the use
of a couple of boxes I felt they were•
helping me. My appetite was better
and I slept better. By the time I had
used half a dozen boxes I felt like a
new woman, my health had fully re-
turned and I could do my housework
with ease. In view of what Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills have done for me I
cannot recommend them too highly."
The best time. to begin taking Dr,
Williams' Pink Pills is the moment
you feel -the least bit out of sorts. The
sooner you do so the sooner you will
regain your old time energy. You can
get these pills through any medicine
dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or
six boxes for $2,50 from The Dr. Wil-
liams Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

Family loyalty Is not the least of the
virtues. The household divided against
it;:elf, we are assured, cannot stand,
A young man or woman facing, life
and - entering the world without the
faith and the love of a home in ,the
background is destitute of one of the
most valuable assets.
It is not news that most households
live at peace and in equity behind
closed doors, and so it is quarrels and
murders that find their way into the
newspapers preferentially,
Could we but see at close range how
most families lead ,their lives we
should be reassured, and we.. should
not become cynical because of the
minority of dismal failures in mar-
riage and parenthood,
The foundation -stone of society is-
the happy family. It is a family in
which a firm hand of discipline con-
trols • the growing child; in which
children's rights are recognized and
still a respect for the elders is incul-
cated and insisted upon.
It is a family which knows how its
own members spend their days and
where they are. Children and parents
do not meet as strangers at the table
now and then. Pleasures and sorrows
are shared like food or 'labor or any
other. blessing.
There is no family lice ' where the
head& of the household are not defer-
ential to eaoh other. No contagion
spreads so fast as that of disrespect.

The "Weaker" Sex.
If it is charged against women that
their brain weighs less than the male
brain, the quality of the female brain
is much higher than the male.
It has been noted, too, that few great
causes succeed unless there is a wo-
llian behind them, It was a woman
who really roused the conscience of
the world against slavery. It was a
woman — Florence Nightingale—who
roused the world to make warfare
humane
It was women—Queen Elizabeth
and Queen Victoria—who lifted the
prestige and standing of the Empire
to higher points than any male ruler.
In paying our thanks for "services
rendered" to such great statesmen as
Gladstone, Salisbury, and Chamber-
lain, to mention but three of many, we
are really honoring their wives, from
whom they drew. their inspiration.
A woman —Joan of Are—saved
France from becoming part of Britain,
and another woman, Catherine the
Great, set Russia high among the na-
tions.
There are more women inventors
than men, and more female teachers
than male.
It is admitted that women have far
greater moral courage than men, and
it is a very moot point as to whether
they have not greater physical cour-
age.
On the stage, and in the world of
song, women reign supreme. And let
it be remembered that women stood
nearest to the cross on Calvary, and
were first at the open tomb on Easter
thorn.

pleasure of lite is in the reminiscence'
and there is nothing we remember
more gladly than the affection evident
between our Barents, who were lovers
to the last. In a time of upheavals
and varying standards, when civiliza-
tion seems to stand on the debatable
ground and the pillars of the social or-
der threaten to collapse, we need to
consider the part that the home plays
and the duly of each individual in the

"The essential charm of the farm
remains and always' will remain: the
care of crops, and of cattle, and of
orchards, bees and fowls;; the clearing

the elements; the watching of the
clouds and of the weather; the priva-
ries_with nature, with bird, beast and
plant; and the close acquaintance with
the heart and virtue of the world."

When beginning to give a foal
cow's milk do so most gradually. If
it is suddenly given a full meal, indi-

be sure to occur, but if given in small

or no dangers in feeding more liber-
