EVERY PLACE [IN TELLS 0F CUBES MADE BY DODD’S KIDNEY PILLS. ‘ Cold Springs, Peace River Land- ing, Alta., Dec. 26 (Special)â€"Just 1why Dodd’s Kidney Pills retain fiheir wonderful popularity is easâ€" ily shown by a trip across the ‘prairies. Every town, village and ‘postâ€"oflice has at least one man or v’vfiman who is ready to tell of pains relieved and health restored by the great Canadian Kidney Remedy. ;Let Thos. Griflin of this place add his statement to the hosts already lpublished. .1- . 4-” Thos. Griffin, of Peace River Land- ing, tells how he got rid of his Rheumatism â€"â€" honestly earn’ed popularity. “When I came to this part of the country,” says Mr. Griffin, “1 was troubled with a, bad back and Rheumatism in my shoulders and hips. I sent for six boxes of Dodd’s Kidney Pills and they gave me re- lief at once. I also recommended them to my eldest son who was confined to his bed from Rheumaâ€" tism. “Now I know that Dodd’s Kid- ney Pills are the best medicine for Rheumatism and the Kidneys. I recommend them to every person I hear complaining of not feeling well.” It is a truly astonishing thing to reflect that Shakespeare, for all his love of flowers, would have been able to name scarcely a single bloom in a twentieth century garâ€" den, says the Strand. He would ghardly have been able to distinguish 1the queen of flowers itself, so greatly has the rose changed in the last three ce-nturies._ Dodd’s Kidney Pills made their popularity by curing sick Kidneys. They keep their popularity by keeping on curing sick kidneys. Many of Our Most Beautiful Ones are Modern Productions. no flower gardens in England. dens were herbaria, places where rosemary, mint, rue, thyme and gsage grew, and perhaps a few primitive blooms, such as violets and primrosves, were suffered to exâ€" ist, much as poppies and corn- flowers do to-day. As for the begonias, the chry- santhemum‘s, the dahliws, the ger- aniums, the fuchsias and carnaâ€" tions, these were unknown even to our great-grandfathegs.

" I have suffered from eczema for two years. The trouble began on one arm where there appeared a red spot of about a five-cent size, and it always widened, all the time itching and burning. The first days I didn’t care. but seeing that it gained in size, I tried â€"â€" Ointment and â€" Ointment, but both without success. It was always burning and itching. Having seen in the newspaper the advertisement of the Cnticurn. Remedies, I tried a little. and seeing that it improved. I bought a box of the Cuticura. Ointment. After having used one box, my eczema com- pletely disappeared. The Cuticura. Ointment uhould be kept in every home." (Signed) N. Ostiguy, Marieville. Que. Jan. 14, 1911.

But this cannot continue inde-l finitely, and even in the realm of‘ orchids, for which perhaps the most systematic search of all is made, there is not much left to be explor- ed. For our future novelties we shall have to rely then chiefly on the skill of our hybridists, who are constantly engaged in mating different species of the same family of plants, and our cross fertilizers, who are doing similar work with different varieties of the same species. The flowers of to-day are the result of cross breeding, stimuâ€" lating by electricity, drugs and hot water baths. PHONE TALKS MADE CLEARER Danish Bank Manager Has Trans- mitter Warmed. - 1 A simple way of making tele-‘ phone conversations more audible has been invented by Herr Peter- son, abank manager of Nykjobing, Denmark. On the principle that sound is more readily transmitted through rarefied air he has con- structed an apparatus to warm the transmitter, whereby the air in it becomes thinner and the sound is intensified. Prof. Hannover of the Danish Government telephone testing station, who has made. exâ€" tensive experiments with Peter- son’s apparatus, says in his report that the increase» of sound obtained is remarkable. Telephone conver- sations between Copenhagen and Nykjobing, a distance of some '75 miles, could be clearly followed some distance away from the in- strument. The inventor has apâ€" plied for patents in different coun- tries Ski/0111i During last year Great Britain bought from Switzerland 256,609 cwt. of condemned milk, valued at £648,012. No one need endure the agony of oorns with Holloway’s Corn Cure at hand to remove them. Offspring of Their Marriage Are Liable to Be Deaf Mutes. The seriousness of the risk run by first cousins who marry is em- phasized by Miss Ethel Elderto'n, a. co-worker with Professor Karl Pear-son at the Galton Laboratory for National Eugenics, London Uni- versity. Marriages between near kin, such as uncle and niece, aunt and nephew, or grandparent and grandchild, are forbidden mainly 1on the principle of resemblance. Miss Elderton therefore determined to see whether cousins are as much alike as any of these pairs of re- latives. She studied the cases of no fewer than 6,000 pairs of cousins, with a vie-w to endeavor- ing to measure the degree of re- semblance in health, intelligence, success, temper, and temperament. STOPS BOUGHS $§?€E.‘ BUUUUDD, lelbvl.’ unv- uvu.yv-wwvâ€"-w The conclusion she came to was thisâ€"that the general resemblance between cousins is about half that between brother and sister, and practically the same as that shown by statistics of uncles and nieces and of aunts and nephews. “If the undels-irability of marriage Within certain degrees is” founded on the closeness of resemblance,” says Miss Elderton, “the law which forbids the marriage of uncle and aunt. with niece and nephew should also restrict the marriage of first cousin.’ ’ The offspring of cousin marriages appear to be particularly liable to deaf mutes. “There seems little doubt,” continues Miss Elderton, “that if there is any deafâ€"mutism in a stock a cousin marriage, even when both parties are free from the disease, is most dangerous to the offspring.” “Speaking of etiquette, did you send the dollar for those advertised instructions on ‘What to do at table 1’ ” (KYeS.,’ it Being agreeable means agreeing with people, regardless of your own opinions. “ABE What did you get?” “A slip with one word printed on 1’ )) PRACTICAL ADVICE.

These ptomaines, however, do not begin to increase in any appreciable de- gree until two days after the can has been opened, and while the oil rather favors than prevents the development of the ptomaines the investigators have found that they are not very poisonous. In .fact, minute doses of them seem to act as a stimulant on the appetite and the digestion generally, just as the ptomaines found in cod liver oil. CANNED G001) S BENEFICIAL. The greater the irritation in the threat the more distressing the cough becomes. Coughing is the effort of Nature to expel this irri-1 tating substance from the air pas- sages.
