[ By the term floating kidney, or} movable kidney. is mount a condition in which the tissues surrounding the kidneys no longer keep them both in: their propcr positions, which are be- hind the last ribs, one on each side of the spinal column. Usually one kidney only, and that the right, is: thus affected, although both may be.‘ especially in the distressing cases in‘ which all or almost all the abdominal , organs are involved in a general relaxed condition. Women are believed to suffer from floating kidney more often than men, and the trouble begins most common- ly in the third, fourth or fifth decade of lifeâ€"say between the ages Off twentyâ€"five and fortyâ€"five years. The kidneys in health rest upon a‘ bed of muscular tissue that runs. down on each side of. and is atta‘ched to, the anterior surface of the spinal: column, and they are held in place byl masses of soft fat, sheets of fibrous! tissue and the arteries and veins that, go in and come out from the con-l cavc side of the organs. They are also supported by the pressure of the large intestine in front. A kidney may be loosened from‘ these not very secure supports by a' jolt of any kind, such as a fall, a blow in the back, or a severe‘ cough. Tight. lacing used to be regarded as a fre- quent cause of floating kidney. but since it has gone out of fashion it is not so much of a factor nowadays, Any wasting disease, such as tuber- culosis, that tends to absorb the bed of fat surrounding the kidney will make it more liable to be displaced. In many cases there are no’distinc- tive symptoms of a floating kidney of moderate degree, or even of con- siderhble extent; in other cases very pronounced symptoms accompany a very slightly movable kidney. The usual symptoms are a persistent, dull, aching pain in the back over the region of the kidney or over the region of the stomach, which some- times extends into the groin; but sometimes it is so sharp as to sugâ€" gest renal colic. The severe pain may come in attacks accompanied by chills and vomiting. The patient's diges- ':ind givus strong evidence from per- tion is usually very poor, and con- stipation is liable to. be troublesome. The treatment of floating kidney is by pads or special corsets or belts designed to keep the wandering- organ in its place; but when these fail, as they often do, the surgeon must fasten the kidney to the muscular mass on which it rests.

Stefansson, the Arctic Travel- ler, is Very Sceptical Regard- ing “Direction Sense.” l The apparently marvellous way in which lndiuns, Eskimos and 011181" primitive peoples make their way! through forests, snow covered areas or other rcgions that have little to in- dicate direction to while newcomers has led to a widespread belief that they possess a mysterious Sixth Sense of direction. Stofunsson. the Arctic traveller. Who has live-d much with Eskimos. is very sceptical about the existence of any superiority of sense of direction among p‘.‘il‘.llliVC peoples of any kind. sonzil experience that Eskimos have no such superiority. inferior to White Men. The ability of Indians and others to rind their way he attributes solely to ' lhclr familiarity with the country through which they are passing. They note many things that they have seen before and that have no significance to the stranger in the land. White men can and do acquire the same ability to find their way when they have learned to know a country. When the land is equally strange to the white man and the Indian or the Eski- mo. the White man, because of his bet- ter developed reasoning power, is more likely to have a correct line of direction than the Eskimo. Stefansson tells how, at a time when his little party was in great need of food, one of his Eskimos. Tannaumirk, came home late at night and caused great rejoicing by relating his suc~ 0935 in killing a caribou which he had started to pursue early in the morning. He was the hero of the hour and re- counted his ndventures in great detail. When he finished his story Stefans- son asked him whether it was a long way to the spot where the meat lay and whether he had cached it safely. The Eskimo‘s answer was that he had covered the meat with snow and set traps by it, and that the place was a long way off. Stefansson volunteered to go with him the next morning, but Tannaumirk said this would not be necessary; if he were to start early, in the morning he would, without us; sistancc, be able to get the meat home 1 by night. lright and early the next: day he was off with sled and dogs, but i it had long been pitch dark when he returned. In answer to (lllt‘ellOIlS he said that he had been hurried all the time; that he had hastily loaded the meat on the sled, had set two unllltion- :11 traps by the deer kill. making: four : altogether. and had come right back. home.

Stefansson and Anderson hastened therefore to the rescue. They found four of the dogs, as they expected, with their feet caught in traps. But had .what greatly surprised them was to find these traps around the deer kill, which 'l‘unuaumirk bud taken so many hours to reach in his trips back The explanation was that 'I‘unnaumirk. in starting after the deer, had followed it as it took a circuitous course of more than ten miles.

How m m “â€" STOMACll TROUBLE A Tonic Medicine is Needed to Build Up the ‘Digestive Organs. The oldfnshioned methods of treat- ing stomach diseases are being dis- carded. The trouble wlth the old. fashioned methods was that when the treatment was stopped the trouble re- iturned in an aggravated form. The modern method of treating in- digestion and other forms of stomach trouble is to tone up the stomach and glands to their normal work. Every step toward recovery is a step gained not to be lost again. The recovery of the appetite, the disappearance oi pain after eating, the absence of gas, are steps on the road to health that those who have tried the tonic treat- ment remember distinctly. Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills are a tonic every constituent of which is helpful in 'building tip the digestive organs, and therefore the very best remedy for simple or chronic. cases of stomach tumble. The success. of the treat- ment is best shown by hundreds of bases like the, following. Mrs. Chas. Comer, Picton. Ont, saysw‘Tor up- wards of two years I was a great suf- ferer from indigestion. Food would ferment in my stomach, and I would belch gas with a burning sensation. Often I would be troubled with ham sea, sick headache and dizziness. Notwithstanding that I was under medical treatment the trouble grew so bad, that I would only eat when absolutely forced to, and I was in con- stant misery. I was finally advised to try Dr. Williams“ Pink Pills and had only been using them‘ a few weeks when I found they were help- ing me. I very gladly continued their use and the result is they have made mo a well woman, every vestige of the trouble having disappeared. I am so grateful for what Dr. Williams’. Pink Pills have done for me that I strongly advise any who may be suffering from stomach trouble to give them a fair trial, and I believe that like myself they will find a sure cure." You can get Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills through any dealer in medicine, or by mail, post paid, at 30 cents a box. or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock- ville.
