Nearly All the Common Ills of Life are Caused by Weak, Watery and Impure Blood. Bad blood means bad health. That is why llr. Williaiiis’ l‘ink l’ills mean good healthwthey actually make new, rich blood. b‘ad blood poisons the whole system. The nerves break down, the liver goes wrong, the kidâ€" neys get clogged and inflamed, the heart flutters and jumps at the least excitement, the stomach power to digest food, the lungs are unable to throw off the lingering colds, in fact the whole body out of order. Then you have headâ€" aches, can't sleep and can't eat and l feel utterly miserable. And it all comes from bad blood and can be cured by the rich, red blood Dr. .Williams’ l’ink l’ills sends coursing to every part of the body. Mr. Daniel McKinnon, of North Pelham, Ont, suffered from bad blood, but has been made well and strong by Dr. \Villialns' Pink Pills after all other treatment had failed. Mr. Mcâ€" Kinnon says: "Until last spring I had been afllicted with a weak stoâ€" mach, headaches and kidney trou- bles. 'At times I was completely prostrated and my sufferings were of a most severe nature. At different. Itimes I was treated by no less than seven doctors, but. from none of 'them did I get more than temporary relief. 'As time went on I became hopeless of ever being well again. Last spring a friend drew my attenâ€" tion to Dr. \l‘illiams’ Pink Pills and I decided to try this medicine. I had only taken four boxes when I found a decided improvement in my condition, and I continued using the pills until I had taken a dozen boxes when I was a cured man and the sufferings I had formerly endured were but a disagreeable memory. I 'admit being an enthusiastic admirer of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, but I think I have just. cause for my on- thusiasm and will always recommend them to my ailing friends.” Just as surely as Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills cured Mr. McKinnon they can cure anaemia, indigestion, headâ€" aches, backaches, kidney trouble, rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, neurâ€" algia, nervousness, general weakness and the special ailments of growing spoonful of salt, and a dash of girls and women.

To be captured by a horde of wild camiibals, foil until he presented a ‘most appetizing spectacle to his cap; tors. and to have a, dangerously nczu' view of a large, rough gridiron, where he Was to ’bc toasted Wit” 91‘0" pcrly browned, Was the recent experi- ence of Thomas Ellis, 3, member of the crew of the steamer Astrakan, which arrived at Philadelphia, the other day. The story of how Ellis escape this fate and thus disappoint- ed the expectant, palates of the Sav- agcs was told by him. At the. time of his experience Ellis Was a member of the crew of the sailing ship Aigburth. Under the command of Captain John H. Reed and with a, crew of seven men, the ship left New South Wales for Java, uvhcre it was to take a cargo of lsugar for Philadelphia. On July 10, when oil the northeast coast of New Guinea, the ship met a storm. The sails were carried away first, ‘and the mast soon followed. The :second day land was sighted, and it ‘was determined to make a trial at ,reaching shore. When still some disâ€" tance away the boat was swamped, ‘and the eight men, already exhaustâ€" ed, had to swim to shore. One of the men had brought :1 rifle with him. and he. managed to keep this dry, knowing it to be their only hope of getting food. Wet and weakened, the party made ltheir Wily inland for several hundred yards, when they were attacked by a. band of naked savages. With the aid of the rifle, which kept. their prur- suers at. bay, Captain Reed and three of his men succeeded in escaping, but Ellis and the others were captured. To the wonder of the men, the sav- ages took great trouble to capture ‘them alive, and seemed to express glee rather than hatred in glances. Still more surprised were they when they were placed in a iwarm, dry but and given plenty of vegetable food. No meat was given them, and this omission was due, t‘iey afterward found out, to the prevalence of tctse, a fly pest, which had exterminatcd most. of the animals in that section of the country. It was not until the end of this time that they began to realire the fate in store for them. Good living and little wonk had its usual effect, and they began to fatten. It was when they noticed that this increase of flesh was apâ€" preciated by their captors that they realized that, having been long with- out animal food or flesh of any kind, the savages intended to have a. gala toast with them as the principal (fish. In the meantime the other sailors had also been captured, but by anâ€" other and more friendly tribe. 'I‘his tribe. had manv dealings with traders. When they learned that the rest of the party had been captured by the cannibals, they offered to rescue them, as it gave them a. chance to wreak vengeance on a tribe with which they had several scores to settle. . when they reached the. enemy's their ' What we claim is ily by a tea pot infusion.

PAPER KET’I‘LES. Preparations are being made to furâ€" nish the soldiers of the German army with paper kettles. It is understood Ithat. the new devices are the invenâ€" tion of a Japanese. Although the .iitensils are made of pliable paper, they hold Water readily. By pouring water over them they can be hung over the fire without burning for a length of time sufficient to boil the water. One kettre can be used about eight times, and the cost is only two cents. The chief advantage in favor of the unique. receptacles is that they are much lighter to carry than any- thing else yet devised. A distriit vi-itor once Went to see an old Scotch woman who was dying.
