If there any Englishman who wants to prevent the Pringe of Wales from participating in this typically Eng- lish picnic? There is not.

But no amount of police supervision has so far pre- vented them from cheering the Prince, and it is possible that more than one of his spills have been due to these shrill but cordially intention- ed bursts of cheering.

FIGHTING FOR BABYS HEALTH Is the Constant Care of Every Young Mother. The young mother has a constant care in looking after the welfare of her little ones. Childhood ailments come on so gudden--sometimes with- out a minute's warning---the mother may have a very sick baby on her hands before help can be obtained. That is unléss she has a remedy in the house which she can safely give the baby for any of the many minor ailments of babyhood and childhood. Such a remedy is found in Baby's Own Tablets. Thousands of mothers throughout the country always keep a box of the Tablets on hand and they proclaim them to be without an equal for sweetening baby's stomach; regu- lating his bowels, and thus driving out constipation and indigestion; colds and simple fevers, and making the' dreaded teething period easy, Baby's Own Tablets are an abso- lute]y safe remedy.
