One of the Efi'ects of the War In England. So rapid were the judicial methods of Sir George Jesse] that he some- ftimes did not sit in 'coui‘t because there were no cases left for him to try. Girls upon the threshold of woman- hood often drift into a decline in spite of all care and attention. Even strong and lively girls become weak, depressed, irritable and listless. It is the dawn of womanhOOdâ€"a crisis in the life of every girlâ€"and prompt measures should be taken to keep the blood pure and rich with the red tint .of health. If the body is not in a healthy condition at this critical stage, 'grave disorders may result, and future life become a burden. Deadly conâ€" sumption often follows this crisis in the lives of young women. Dr. Wil- liams’ Pink Pills have saved thousands of young girls from what might have ‘been life-long invalidism or early death. They are a blood-builder of ,unequalled merit, strengthening weak nerves and producing a liberal supply of rich, red blood, which every girl needs to sustain her strength. Over and over again Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have proved their value to women and girls whose health was failing. Miss Jennie Gel-eau, St. Jer- ome, Que., says: “At the age of eighteen my health was completely shattered; I was suffering from anaemia with all its attendant evils. The trouble forced me to leave school. I suffered from headaches, was tired and breathless at the least exertion. I had no appetite, and my face and lips were literally bloodless. A good friend advised the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, and thanks to this great medicine I am again enjoying good health, with a good appetite, good French Free of Cholera. Dr. Louis Legroux, of the Paris In- =gtitute, has made the declaration -that neither soldiers nor civilians in h ance need have any fear of the olera. Cholera microbes are deâ€" 'ptroyed, the doctor says, by other mi- ,brobes that develop during the process {of the decomposition of bodies in the :bpen air. This and other reasons, according to Dr. Legroux, removes all anger of cholera from decomposing dies. The King’s Bench judges are rapid- ly getting into the same position, says the London Globe. They started their sittings this week with only thirty- :five jury actions in their lists, and they have disposed of them all. If ‘Ithat nation is happy which has no litiâ€" gation the war promises to secure for ‘us at least this measure of bliss. The summer months are the most dangerous to children. The complaints Lof that season, which are cholera in~ fantum, colic, diarrhoea and dysentry, come on so quickly that often a little one is beyond aid before the mother realizes he is ill. The mother must be on her guard to prevent these troubles, or if they do come on sud- denly, to cure them. No other medi- cine is of such aid to mothers during hot weather as is Baby's Own Tab- ,lets. They regulate the stomach and 'bOWels and are absolutely safe.

Everywhere throughout Belgium the Germans are redoubling their se- ,verity. They suspect the Belgian population of favoring the national cause. At Liege fourteen persons were shot. At Brussels 8 fireworks maker named Ricard was shot for having struck a German. At Eccloo a stu- dent was condemned to eight days in grison and $100 fine for wearing a rench tri~color cockade in his hat. Posters in Antwerp notify Belgians that they can obtain German natural- ization within 48 hours. The Com- tesse Joghe-Ardoye was arrested at Ghent for wearing a medallion with the portrait of King Albert. GUARD BABY’S HEALTH IN THE SUMMER A judge sat on the judgment seat, A goodly judge was be. He said unto the Registrar, “Now call a cause for me.” “There is no cause," said Registrar, And laughed aloud with glee; “A Jessel’s wit has despatched them ‘ all; I can call no cause for thee." DECLINE IN LITIGATION. Fourteen Shot at Liege. It was a ~thrilling “nose-ending" dive, the machine being so vertical in its descent that Hild and his observer had to stand, leaning backwards, from which precarious position he let drive a final series of quick shots. The dive was so precipitate and vertical that the German aviators ceased firing, thinking that they had sent the French monoplane to its last account and that it would give a final exhibi- tion of ploughing. But after a verti- cal dive of a thousand feet, Hild re- gained control of the aeroplane, eased the descent, regained the horizontal plane and immediately started to climb with all the speed he could musâ€" ter. Among the many stories of aerial! adventure growing out of the war, one of the best is told by Frederick A. Talbot, in The World's Work for June, in a comprehensive survey of the advance in aviation. The hero is an American aviator, Frederick C. Hild, a volunteer serving in the French Aviation Corps. | The German machines, realizing that they had been tricked, resumed the pursuit, but Hild now held the ad- vantage. The speed of his machine proved invaluable. The Taube start- ed a hot chase, but gave it up directly it saw that Hild had regained his ori- ginal altitude and was quite prepared to resume fighting uperations. The Taube turned and flew for its life, but Hild had his report to give to his commander, so he abandoned attempt- ing pursuit and returned to his own lines. French Machine Defeats a German Taube. This diversion precipitated another denouement. The Taube which had dived into the bank of cloud, ascerâ€" taining that it was reinforced, now turned round and showed fight. Hild was caught betWeen two fires. The Taube was intent upon ramming him, while Hild was exposed to a hot fire. He returned the latter spiritedly, but was threatened by the Taube. There was only one possible means of es- capeâ€"to dive vertically towards the ground. Without a moment’s hesita- tion he jammed his elevating lever hard over. The aeroplane quivered and then answered her helm so com- pletely that an involuntary looping of the loop appeared imminent. Paper Money. The Chinese anticipated what we might think to be an essentially mod- ern convenience â€" banknotes and “paper money”â€"â€"so long ago as 2697 B.C.â€"4,600 years ago! One such banknote, issued nearly 3,300 years ago, is still preserved in the museum at VPetrograd. The Chinese called their notes “flying money,” or “con- venient money." They bore the name of the bank, date of issue, a number, an official signature, its value in words and figures, and, as an addi- tional precaution against forgery and as a help to the ignorant, a pictorial representation in coins of an amount equal to the face value of the note. Holders of the notes were, by an inscription, exhorted to “Produce all you can; spend with economy. One day he was aloft upon a re- connaissance. The weather was cloudy, so that glimpses of what was transpiring on the hostile territory be- neath could only be obtained through rifts in the banks of vapor. While careering through one of these open spaces he caught sight of a Taube, and, his machine being fleet, he in- stantly gave chase. The Taube turn- ed, and made for the cover of a bank of clouds, with Hild in hot pursuit. The latter worked his machine up to ninety miles an hour, and was just about to dive into the cover when a German biplane was seen emerging from the cloud. The latter showed no disposition to run. It was armed with a machine gun, while the pilot and observer were well equipped with Mauser rifles and pistols. A hot fire was concentrated upon Hild and his machine. The American aviator was caught at a disadvantage, because the attack was unexpected and for the reason that the German machine had the commanding position manoeuvring immediately over the French aero- plane. It is stated that the notes were printed in blue ink, and made of pa- per woven from the fibre of the mul- berry tree. ‘ These notes bore also a warning inscription of the penalties ' of counterfeiting.

My stomach was so disordered that I had no appetite. What I did eat disagreed. I suffered greatly from dizziness and sick head- ache and feared a nerous breakdown. Upon my druggist’s recommendation I used Dr. Hamilton's Pills. The variety and curious illustra- tions in these manifold editions are a striking feature.

Every nation has found delight in the story of Robinson Crusoe. An article in the Strand Magazine tells that W. S. Lloyd of Philadelphia has spent years in hunting for rare and curious editions of the immortal work. His agents, it appears, have had standing orders to buy up all editions that may be found, and he even pos- sesses examples of the story in Latin and Greek. Thirtyâ€"three languages are represented in Mr. Lloyd’s collec- tion, and these include Arabic, Per- sian, Turkish and Hebrew. “Well, I hope so,” returned Henâ€" peck with unusual spirit. “I would not want any boy of mine to be so unfortunate as to regard it as a joke.” A Nova, Scotia Case of Interest to All Women INVESTMENT Wore ’Em Out. ‘ A teacher had been at great trouble to explain to her class the meaning of the word “notwithstanding,” and, on asking for a sentence in which the word occurred, was somewhat nonplussed to receive the following effort from a blushing maiden of some eight summers and winters: “Please, miss, my little brother has a hole in the seat of his trousers, and it’s notwithstanding."

He was playing at a reception given by a Russian prince, and played Beethoven’s “Kreutzer” Sonata, which has several and long and impressive rests in it. During one of these rests a motherly old lady leaned forward, patted him on the shoulder and said: “It is not a question of initiative. What our submarines have done scouting around Heligoland and around the Dardanelles proves this.

Com- mander Bellairs said:â€" “The man who wrote that ought to procure a scale chart and study it for a few minutes with an American naval officer at his elbow. Then he might learn quite a lot. Cuxhaven and Kiel are hidden away behind miles of heavily mined sand banks, as well as breakwaters. At Heligo- land there are only a few German torpedo boats and submarines. In naval warfare one goes by probabili- ties, not possibilities. The British submarine wouldn’t have one chance in a million of getting behind the stone walls where the Germans hide their fleet.
