Had To Sit Up In Bed. Heart trouble has of late years be come very prevalent. Sometimes a pain catehes you in the region of the heart, now and then your heart skips beats, palpitates, throbs, or beats with such rapidity and violence you think it will burst. You have weak | 294 dizzy spells, are nervous, irri- table and depressed, and if you at- temipt to walk upstairs or any dis- tance vou get all out of breath, There is no other remedy will do you so much good, restore your heart to a natural condition, build up your strength and give you back vigor and vitality as Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills. + Mrs. A. Russell, Niagara Falls, Ont., writes: "At nights I could not sleep, and had to sit up in bed, my heart would beat so fast. "When I went to walk very far 1 would get all out of breath, and would have to sit down and rest be- fore I could go any further. I was advised to get Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills and before I had used two boxes I could sleep and walk as far as I liked without any trouble."

Only Fourteen Vessels Were De Stroyed Lasy Season. The logs of Iife on the Great Lakes during the last season was much smaller than it was in 1816, and the property loss was very small when it is considered that all the ships of all classes were in commis: slob from the siart to finish and that conditions were very bad during ihe first month or six weeks and during the latter part of the season. The Lake Superior traders bad to werk through lee up to the middle of June and about a dozen steamers were stuck off Duluth barbor on the 6th that month. Ice crushers had to 0 a channel between Lake Huron and Lake Superior in May, and while a number of boats were forced ashore and damaged, not a ship was lost, Steamers that were out after the Arst week of December bad to be taken through the Tce flelds by car- ferries and tugs. The ice crushers succeeded in keeping the Soo river open, but the channel between Lake St. Clair and Lake Erie was blocked a large part of the time from Decem- ber 10 to Dec. 22, when the last boats of the down-bound fleet reach- ed gpen water in Lake Erie. The steamer Henry Cort, which was sent out from Buffalo to assist the boats through the ice, was sunk in collision near Bar point. Twenty-five lives were lost on the fourteen vessels that passed out of existence during the past season, compared with seventy im. 1916, when thirteen ships were total losses. Seven members of the crew of the little sand steamer Desmond were drowned when she foundered on Lake Michigan, and the other men were lost on old barges. The steamer George A. Graham, which stranded in Georgian Bay, and the steamer joudreau, which was driven ashore in a sixty-mile-an-hour gale on Lake Huron, were the only steel boats that were total losses. The Goudreau, which bad a cargo of pyrites, was the biggest loss of the season. She was insured for $195,000.

An Epitaph to a Shell, : Ia a letter from Pte. Wm. Price, R.AMC., Toronto, who is some- where in France, he tells of a mod- ern miracle. 'Last Sunday week," he writes, "about 6 p.m., a shell (coal boxes we call them) eight inches wide and four feet long, passed through the roof and side wall of a barn in which the bearers sleep, and feil into the grounds of the hospital; but, thank God, it didn't explode. "Strange to - e, the subject of fire, capacily foun- the service was 'Miracles,' and this| was one of the greatest, for had it come a little later there would have been several of us having feod and rest in the barn. The shell smashed heavy beams, hu them just where I would have been resting. We buried the shell, and enclosed it with a fence. This is the verse we made up and placed on it---- "Here lies a shell of German invention, To do us great harm was the Intention, And in striking a barn it caused great : alarm, While the troops were singing the ~--teenth Psalm. But don't be afraid, the danger is o'er; Still, ir it goes off we'll say 'au revoir." So now well conclude with love and affection, + i Sincerely trusting there'll be no re- surrection."
