A Traveller's Comical Experience While Being Shaved. The old woman who lived in a shoe really knew very well what to do with her many children. She "'spanked them all soundly and sent them to bed." Mrs. Frances M. in "The Bretons at Home,"' describes a barber shop where the same expedient had, in part, at least, been employed. It should be explained that in Brit- tany the beds are set in little re- cesses in the wall, and the people lie as on a closet shelf, | I had gone with my husband to find a barber. It was dusk when we entered the one room of the tiny cottage, and work was over for the day. The last customer sat idly ior a corner, gossiping with the bar- ber's wife, while the man of razors himself was idly glancing over last week's newspaper. It was too dark to see the details of the room, but I managed to find an oak chest in front of a bed, and sat down to watch proceedings. It was a curious sight. In the middle of the room sat my English- man in his light tweed suit, a towel round be neck, fase soyerod wi ostly, gleaming lather. n * front of him stood the barber's. wife, a lighted candle in her hand, to guide her husband in his work. Finally, his thin, cadaverous face almost touching that of his victim, the barber himself, his left hand holding my" husband now by the nose, now by the chin.

To keep baby well his little stomach must be kept sweet and his bowels regular--Baby's Own Tablets will do that--they will do it safely, surely and without pain or griping. Concerning them Mrs. 8. O. Braaten, Bergland, Ont., says: --"My baby was both- ered almost continually with his stomach and bowels and was great- ly constipated. Baby's Own Tab- lets quickly relieved him and I would not now use any other medi- cine." The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. PUN NR THE USUAL WAY.

"They cured me, and I didn't have to the doctors. And just to think-that 'after fourteen years of suffering one box of Dodd's Kid- ney Pills should cure! I will re- commend Dodd's 'Kidney Pills to anyone who suffers from Rheuma- tism."' Yes, it is easy to cure Rheuma- tism when you go the right way about it. Rheumatism is caused by uric acid in the blood. If the Kidneys are working right they will strain all the uric acid out of the blood and there can be no Rheuma- tism. Dodd's Kidney Pills always make the Kidneys work right. le THE CONSEQUENCE. "That young fellow has been sow- ing his wild oats." : "'I suppose that is why he looks 80 seedy." 2 a Cholera and all summer com- plaints are so quick in their action that the cold hand of death is up- on the victims before they are aware that danger is near. If at- tacked do not delay in getting the proper medicine. Try a dose of Dr. J. D. Kellogg's Dysentery Cor- dial, and you will get immediate relief. It acts with wonderful ra- pidity and never fails to effect a cure. FEW CAN. Wigg--' 'Why do you think he is rich? He looks as though he hadn't a cent in the world."

"Ever since his last illness he's been moltin' as you might say. I hope he ain't worry- ing over it, Mrs. Crump?' "Well, it do bother him a bit," she admitted. "And well it might," said her neighbor. "When my old man lost his hair, he felt the cold somethin' terrible." "Oh, it ain't the cold that wor- ries Alf,"' replied Mrs. Crump. "It's the bother he has when he's washin' himself. If he doesn't keep his hat on, poor dear, he can't tell where his face finishes." Many a fellow never lays any- thing by for a rainy day so long as he can borrow an umbrella.
