But the sufferer need not grow discouraged for there is a cure an Dr. William’s Pink Pills. These Pills enrich the blood, feed the starved sciatic nerve and thus drives out the pain. Mrs. Joseph L. Brown, Wilniot, N. 8., was a victim of sciatica and found a cure in Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. . She says :â€"“For a year I was laid up with sciatica from my Side to. my foot. What I suffered was attimes awful. I could not touch my foot to the floor and had to hobble about with a cane. My right leg was drawn up, and I never expect- ed to have the use of it again.

In Germany there is a society called the Association for Furthering the Breeding and Employment of Police Dogs, and ideas on the subject are exchanged, all experiments with dogs being carefully reported. Years of thorough and painstak- ing study Were devoted to this sub- ject before suitable breeds of dogs were obtained and proper methods of working the dogs were discovâ€" ered. Originally Brunswick was the headquarters of the German police doggy men and when canine assistance was required one of the officers at once set out with a dog.

Toronto vation, Starlings are not the only birds in exceptional force. The wild geese, whose persistent affection for Lore Leicester’s estate is one of the strangest phenomena in local miâ€" gration, having arrived in thous- jands. Their wild chattering can be {heard from a great distance, and {now and again they can be seen in Ia great cloud in the air at several miles distance. The veracity of this multitude is so great that they will ruin some of the best grazing :marshes in the district, quite stripp: ling it of young grass before they go back across the seas. Nowhere in England is to be seen a spectacle quite so strange as this noisy host of great birds, which are regarded as almost sacred and left unmolested for the great part of their stay. The east winds which have saved these and other birds from all the perils of, the journey across the ,1 North Sea have rather diminished 'the usual number of snipe and lwoodcock, which seem to have flown straight across to Ireland and . the west coast. But nearly all other birds are exceptionally numerous, fthough none in nearly such quan- §tity as the starlings, which have no friend left in the eastern countries.

PLAGUE OF LOCUSTS. Algeria and Tunis have this year suffered from an extraordinary inâ€" vasion of locusts. The locusts arâ€" rive from the direction of the dos- erts in swarms so thick as to hide the sun. They cover the ground as with a yellow carpet, and someâ€" times render the railways so slip- pery that trains can hardly run. At this stage. they are not voracious, being engaged principally in laying their eggs. But 40 days later the young locusts, not yet winged, be- gin to run about, devouring every green thing, including not only leaves, but even the bark and tend- er shoots of trees. The hordes, ad- vancing in a body, sometimes cover an area of severa square miles, Barricades of cloth, surmounted with waxed strips, erected in the line of march, arrest the progress of theinsects, which are unable to crawl up the smooth surface. Pass- ing along the line of the barricades, they fall into ditches dug for the purpose, wherethey are killed with corrosive liquids. Another method is to smooth descending paths, end- ing in poisoned ditches. The in- sects follow the descents, and thus go to their death. ~ __.1‘..____._ Real charity doesn’t employ a publicity promoter. navy if he has one, but possibly the same effect would be produced" in a more humane manner by' merely destroying the docks. “Keeping high up in the daytime- and descending at night, they can keep their direction with practical certainty, and hovering close over any desired spot may launch exploâ€" sives with relay action fuses, which- will enable them to retire to a safe distance before the explosion oc- curs; or they may even risk de- struction to effect some notable cx~ ploit “There would appear to be but little difficulty in lodging the ox- plosives with great accuracy if good plans are available to work by. while the expense, even if airships be lost, would be insignificant. --â€"~i« A woman can always tell from the way her husband shakes down the furnace whether or not he's in good humor. a».
