Homoeopathic doses of hospitality seldom do much good. A soft; answer seldom tutrns away the book agent.. A nasty or insipid dish has no such effect. If it nasty the storm ach rejects it; if insipid, it receives it with comparative indfference. It is of the utmost; importance, he held, that good flavor and good ar- oma. should prevail, for nice food is more easily assimilated than that which is flavorless, and good cook- ing not merely tickles the palate, but it also contributes to the great work of nutrition. Such a. morsel, he said, not only sets the mouth watering by stimu- lating the salivary glands, but it also induces a. flow of the gastric juices by acting on the glands of the stomach. These glands it brings into “play before any portion is swallowed. It is, in fact, telephon- ing down to the stomach to say that something good is coming, and the stomach Immediately prepares itself for its reception. Dainty Morse] Announces Its Com- ing by Wireless Method Sir James Crichton Browne de- scribed recently at the end of adin- net in London, how a. delicate mor~ eel, perfectly served, of delicious flavdr and good aroma, will send to the stomach, before it, is swallowed, a telephone message» 90 that it; is coming.

He was treated by several doctors, and finally went to Winnipeg, where they blistered his head and applied hot plasters which really only ad- ded more to his misery, and he re- turned home still uncured. In this way he suffered for nearly six years, trying all sorts of medicine, but never finding a cure. One day while he was suffering I went to a store to get a liniment, but they did not have the kind I wanted, and the Storekeeper asked me what I wantâ€" ed it for. I told him about my hus- band and how he suffered, and he placed a box of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills on the counter saying, ‘Take my advice, this is what your hus-‘, band should take.’ I took the Pills home with me and my husband started taking them. I am not sure how many boxes he took, but one thing is certain, they completely cured him, and he has never since had a touch of those torturing pains. You can tell how much he suffered when I say that the hair on the side of his head in which the pain was located turned quite gray. It looks odd, but he says it does not matter since the pain is one. I believe he Would not have geen living now had Dr. Willisms’ Pink Pills not cured those terrible pains, and you may be sure we gratefully recommend them to all our friends and all suffering ones.” F00!) TELEPHGNES STOMACH. Mrs. J. C. Adams, Norris Lake, Man., says: “I am writing you at my husband’s request to let you know the great benefit Dr. Wilâ€" liams’ Pink Pills have been to him. He is a river driver and therefore much exposed to all kinds of wea- ther and wetting. As a. result he. had an attack of rheumatism, and then to add to his misery a severe tyne‘of neuralgia set in, locating There is an excellent reason why Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have cured the most severe cases of neuralgia, sciatica, and other complaints in the group that are known as dis- orders of the nerves. This group also includes St. Vitus dance and paralysis, and the common state of extreme nervousness and exciteâ€" ability. Each of these complaints exist because there is something the matter with the nervous system. If the nerves have toneâ€"are strong and healthy, you will not have any of these complaints. The reason Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills cure nerv- ous disorders is that they restore weak, run-down nerves to their proper state of tone. They act both directly upon the nerves and on the blood supply. The highest medical authorities have noted that nervous troubles generally attack people who are bloodless and that the nerves are toned when the blood supply is renewed. It is thus seen that Dr. ‘Williams’ Pink Pills cure nervous disorders by curing the cause of the trouble. A SEVERE EASE Cured After Long Years of Suffering by Dr. William’ Pink Pills 0F NEURALGIA The meanest man in a. community usually attracts more attention than the best one. Mrs. R. McEwen, Thornloe, Ont., writes: “I think Baby’s Own Tab- lets an invaluable medicine for lit- tle ones. I used them for my own lchild when he was small and last gsummer when I had a, baby visitor whose food did not agree with him, I sent- for another box of the Tab- lets and they quickly helped him.” It is testimonials such as this that lhave made Baby’s Own Tablets po- ‘pularâ€"that have shown them to be an invaluable medicine for little ones. The Tablets always do good â€"â€"they can never do herm. Once a. mother has tried them for her little one she will have nothing else. For with the Tablets she feels safe. They are sold under the guarantee of a government analyst to contain no harmful drugs. Baby’s Own Tablets may be had at medi- cine dealers or at 25 cents a. box from The Dr. Williams’ Medicine 00., Brockville, Ont. AN INVALUABIB MEDICINE FOR ALL BABIES 20. They slew every one his man -â€"â€"â€"The motley army outside the walls were totally unprepared for any onslaught. Their leaders were stupid with drink, the chariots and horses were unharnessed and un- ready, the army itself, besides beâ€" ing at ease, lacked homogeneity and any sensefof loyalty to a com- mon interest. A panic was exactly the thing to look for. It was Je- hovah’s victory, but the Israelites had to exercise the right sort- of in- genuity in order to meet conditions as they were. These conditions, of course, could only grow worse un- der the sturdy attack of the young men and their aroused followers, so that it is little wonder that the proud forces of Ben-hadad suffered utter rout, and he himself was ob- liged to escape on a horse. 17. The young men . . . went out first-This was a. ruse intended to deceive the unwary foe. And it succeeded. The drunken king thought the little band were coming out to make terms of peace, and he exclaimed, in a, spirit of bravado, Whether . . . for peace, or . . . for war, take them alive (18). 16. They went out at noonâ€"This was a. master stroke. At this hour, under the scorching Syrian sun, everything would be at a, standstill, heavy armor being cast aside, and the soldiers lounging about in care- less relaxation. The king continu- ed his brutish drinking with the vaSsal kings and so rendered him- self more and more helpless. 15. Young men of the princes of the provinceâ€"Their number, two hundred and thirty-two, was no- thing as against the great multi~ tude of the Syrians and their allies. But this prophet wished by the com- parison to throw in relief the fact that the victory was to be a. super- natural one. The sterling youth of the nation were picked out to lead the attack. The older men had al- ready failed and been driven with- in the refuge of the city, and were as a. result filled with fear. The wretched state to which the city itâ€" self had been reduced may be conâ€" jectured from the small number of men who could be mustered to fol- low behind the youthful leadersâ€" only seven thousand. ' 13. A prophetâ€"Though his name is not given, he probably was one of the schools of the prophets, who seem to have acted in concert. The name of Elijah curiously enough is not mentioned in this entire chap- bet. In array against the cityâ€"-This would include the establishment of the war-engines before the walls, battering-rams and catapaults, be- ing the chief instruments of a siege. Ladders would be set up, and arch~ ers would be placed in commanding positions. It must have looked dark to the king and his people cooped up in the city. bhould the walls fall, it meant that desolation and destruction were sure to follow. Verse 12. This messageâ€"He and the other leaders of the immense army (estimated at 130,000 men) were so confident; of their super- iority, that they were wasting their time and strength drinking in the pavilions, or temporary booths set up for the exigencies of war. THE SUNDAY SBHflfll [ESSUN Lesson XII. Defeat Through Drunk- enness. (Temperance Lesson). 1 Kings 20. 12-21. Golden Text, Prov. 31.4. INTERNATIONAL LESSON. MARCH 19. Accordingly Priestly came to me, and we agreed to go in pursuit. In order that our dogs might enjoy the sport, we decided to let them go with us. Two recruits armed with smoothbores and some small dogs setting forth to shoot a. tiger! ’Lhe shooting of big game is not so much a, matter of risk and ad- venture to-day as it was in the days of muzzleâ€"loading, smoothâ€"loom muskets. Modern improvements in firearms have given the hunter too great advantage for sport, to say nothing of fair play. What the business was more than fifty years ago General Ruggles tells in his “Recollections of a LUCKI’IOW Vet- eran.” One day a. native came in and bowl Priestly that a large tiger was lying down on the ground on the opposite side of a small stream that ran at the bottom of the parâ€" ade ground. As there was no jun- gle there, only a few scattered bushes, Priestly would not at first believe him, but the. man persistâ€" ed that the tiger was there. In the Days of. the Muzzle-Loading Musket. Just try Zam-Buk for cuts, or burns, or cold sores, or eczema, ul- cers, rashes, bad" leg, piles, vari- cose ulcers, or any inflamed or disâ€" eased condition of the skin. Its ef- fect will highly satisfy you. All druggists and stores 500. box, or free from Zam-Buk 00., Toronto, for price. Try Zam-Buk Soap, too. 25c. tablet. Mothers might look a little more deeply into the action of Zam-Buk. First, it is highly antiseptic. As soon as applied it stops all danger of festering, blood-poisoning and inflammation. Second, it is sooth- ing. 1t cools the wound or sore; al- lays the irritation; stops the pain and smarting. Then, thirdly, it sti- mulates the cells, beneath the injur- ed part, to healthy action, and cre- ates new, healthy tissue. So says Mrs. A. Alce, of 170 Chat- ham Street, Montireal. A missionary, writing from the West Coast of Africa, says: “One boy who was treated for a. bad case of ulcer, came back ‘recently and said, ‘I like best that green medi- cine.’ The V’green medicine’ was Zamâ€"Buk.” Children like Zam-Buk because, as soon as applied to a. burn, a. cut, or a. sore, it stops the pain and then gradually, bgt surely, it heals. A Chat With Mothers. "Whenever my children have any note places, cuts, or skin troubles, they ask for Zamâ€"Buk. They can always depend upon it doing what is needed.” v Now, why should children, all the world over, show such a. marked preference {gr ng-ngjl _ As food this mu‘cilaginous quality (the gombine) renders the plant of much value. It, is so easily digest- ed, so acceptable to all the organs which take up, disintegrate and distribute food through the system that it may be readily understood why it has become such a favorite in the tropics, where heaviness is instinctively avoided in form of nourishment. . Medicinally the root made into a Vdecoc’cion, is given to allay irrita- tion and inflammation internally and parts of the plant made into poultices to apply externally. In the tropics okra, seeds, matur- ed and drled, are cooked very much as a barley in northerh climates. The mucilage of the roots is said to be free from the slightest odor and perfectly white when powdered, su- perior to even the powder of the marshmallow, and around Constan- tinople the 0km is much cultivated for the root powder as a base of confections. The okra, is known botanically as the hibiscus esculenius, being a. near relation of the flowering‘hib- iscus, whose brilliant blossoms are so familiar. Tropical Plant Famous “Gumbo” of Southern States. The famous gumbo, or gombo, of the Southern States and of all southern countries, particularly of the western hemisphere, is really a nickname for okra, or ochro, as it is sometimes spelled, for While the dish is composed of several and varying ingredients, okra is the foundation, the body, and likewise furnishes the “frill,” the remaining component parts being so blended with it that they lose their individ- uality in its all pervading mucila- ginours beginning and end, beguil- ing and delicious from first to last.

SHOOTING A TIGER. same time. “There is a thoroughly up-to-data When we got to within about for- love story.” ty yards of the bush, we saw him, “How’s that?” that is, his head only, as he looked “They get married and live anâ€" up. Did we remember all we had happy ever after.” The major marshalled us in skir- mishing order, himself in the cen- tre, and he begged us to be cool and not to fire recklessly. If the tiger came out, those on the right were to fire first, so that all the guns would not be unloaded at the same time. By this time our dogs were in a. very low-spirited c‘ondinonâ€"J sup- pose they scented the beast; no more joyous barks and capers. They came along close to our heels, their tails between their Legs. When Biddulph joined us, we set off again, and soon arrived at the small stream which was crossed by a, bridge. Here themative stopped, and declined to go any farther. Pointing to a small bush about a. hundred yards distant, he said, “If the tiger has not moved, there is where you will find him.” Before we reached the parade- ground we met Major Biddulph, who wanted to know what we were up to. We said that we were going to shoot a tiger, and then told him what the native said. He, too, would not at first believe 'that a. tiger could be there; but at last, after listening to the native’s re- port, he said, “If the tiger is there, and you attack him by yourselves, mark my words, thnre will be no shooting him, but he will make a. meal off you and your dogs. Wait till I get my rifle and I’ll come with you to see fair play.” Now we should have liked to do it, all ourselves; but as the major was an old hunter, and one who had shot big game of all kinds, we were glad to have him with us, as he said, “to see fair play.” We none of us wished to take an unfair advantage of the tiger. There was no doubt in our minds that we should kill the tiger if he were there. All our talk was of what we should do with the claws, tne teeth and the skin. Poor tiger! I wonder if he had any inkling of what was céming. two others, who were anxious to be in at the death.

Down he came direct at the major, who, not having a second barrel, knelt down and raised his rifle, holding it in front of him, horizontally, with both hands, and rammed it into the tiger’s jaws.
