Mrs. John C. Huflman had been troubled for over six years with fe- male weakness and kidney trouble. The pain was so great, that she could not. bear it and her kidneys gaVe her much bother nm mu um mnnmn her so much bother that she could not. entertain any company in her home or take any social pleasures Whatever. Her urme was very much discolored and gave her great trouâ€" ble in passing. Baflin Land Has Recently Been Coming Into Prominence. In addition to Lheée symptoms she had all the pains, headaches, and weaknesses of Female Trouble. Mrs. Huflman tried physician’s treatment and many other medicines. Dr. Robert Bell, who in' 1897, mapped a, long streLCh of the west, coast. of Baffin Land, has since been making further surveys of that, terâ€" ritory. and now reports that. the isâ€" land is, at. least, 300,000 square miles in area. It IS, therefore, the second largest island in the world, being surpassed only by Green- land. “but instead of getting better She was gradually growing worse and Was very much discouraged. Many of her friends thought, she would never get. better, but one day she picked up a newspaper and mud an advertisement. which said that Dodd's Kidney Pills would cure Female Trouble. Napanee, 0nL., Oct. 6.â€"â€"-(Special) -This town has furnished a case which has caused considerable talk In the county. Three years ago no atlas or other publication enumerating the large Islands of the world included Bafl'm Land among them. It. had always been thought to be composed of a number of islands, and is still shown in this Way on many maps. But one by one these supposed is- lands have been found to be a part of the main island. Thus Buifin Land has gradfllally been l‘eprasented as increasing in size. r As she had tried so many other things Without. being able to get-any {Aelpl she_ was very doubtful. but oncluaed to try this remedy. She umd six boxes and was com- pletely cured. She is to-day sound and well, without a single symptom at her oid trouble left. - The distinction of being the larg- sst island has been held by quite I. number of islands in the progress at geographical knowledge“ For many years school children were taught that Australia was the larg- ast island, then it was concluded to be better to enumerate Australia imong the continental masses and Borneo took its place as the largest lsland. About twentyâ€"two years ago It was discovered that New Guinea. Was larger than Borneo, and so the latter island took second place. Peary has recently outlined the northern coast of Greenland, dis» covering that it is an island. and so Greenland has been placed at the head of the list of large islands. At last, Bafl‘in Land looms up as an island that is a little over 1,000 statute miles in length, with a breadth varying from 200 to 500 miles. In the countries where the cactus lourishes, it is selected by various birds and other members of the ani- nal kingdom as a place of refuge. [here is a special kind of wood- pecker in Mexico, a clever bird, which furnishes an illustration of what birds Will do. If the traveller 5 near a mass of cactus known as the candle cactus, he will perceive, Lt some height from the ground, a. )ole in the mass of spiny leaves mat appears to be evidence of deâ€" lay; it was really made by the voodpecker, which peeked away till t made an opening just large en- )ugh to get inside the armored Lree. It then burrows its way burn the middle, among the pith, kill it is right in the centre, and lhere it builds its nest, and keeps \he eggs free from the great heat of the sun and from enemies. Rabbits nake their homes in the Cactus ; lhey burrow under the roots, and )0 keep clear of hunters, who do not appreciate the defensive pro- )erties of the plant. If anyone atâ€" ac’ks a cactus Vigorously with a latchet, and manages to clear away ome of the protecting spines, he will surprise a whole colony of birds ind small animals, the latter on he ground floor and the former in he upper storeys. .

I induced him to procure a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil, which he applied with the most astonishing and marvellous efi‘ects'.

Drawings in lamp black, which are now becoming fashionable, formed a popular amusement in France quite a quarter of a century ago, and Pro- bably date still further back. The present, idea is to take some crystal or porcelain surface, a plate or glass, and hold it over a, lighted candle till it is covered with soot. Then, by means of a camelâ€"hair brush, a, penknife or his fingers, the smoke artist removed the lump black where necessary, or thin‘s it, in order to produce a picture with shading. This is a reversal of the ordinary method of making pictures: in the one case, the design is pro- “This man Lobbs is one of the luckiest fellows I know of. You heard of his arm being blown ofl last.
