To this day, when the King visits the City on state occasions, the ancient | custom of obtaining permission from the Lord Mayor "to pass' Temple Bar" is observed.

London's Charters. Mr. A. H®Thomas, records clerk of the Corporation of London, lec- turing on the City Records at Guild- hall, said that no other city in the world possessed a collection of ar- chives so ancient and so complete. The, city's most interesting charter was that given by William the Con- queror at Christmas, 1066, which, indeed, was more of a treaty than a charter. It gave an undertaking that the laws of the city, by which the citizens managed their affairs, should remain as before. Henry II's €hatter provided that . no. citizen should be drawn into action outside Constant Headaches end Dizziness It is hard to struggle along with a head that aches and pains all the time, dnd in nine cases out of ten the persistent headaches are due to some derangement of the stomach, liver ory bowels.

Mrs. Peter Curran, 27 Morrison St., Sydney, N.S., writes: -- "I have been troubled for the last five years with constant headaches and dissi- ness. * After trying several remedies, which I found to be of no avail, Bur- dock Blood Bitters was recommend- ed to me, BB.B.did mea w I cannot ough," Manufactured only by The T.
