fmmm pm mpm ^ppwww^ TONIC TREATMENT FOR INDIGESTION •the Only Sensible fay to Cure Stomach Tronble] and Bire New Health. When the stomach is f«eble the food lies in it undigested, decays and throws off poisonous gases that distend the walls of the sto- -mach, and causes seriouB interfer- ence with other organs, '??p^iaK ily with the action of the heart and lungs. These poisonous gases have other ill effects. They are absorb- ed by the blood and so weaken and corrupt it as to cause aches in remote parts of the body and the formation of unhealthy tissue everywhere. General bodily weak- ness and loss of weight is the re- sult. The nerves and the brain are disturbed, and discomforts such as dizziness, hot flashes, sleeplessness, irritability and de- spondency originate from this source. Experience shows that these troubles vanish just as soon as the stomach is made strong enough to digest the food. In other words it needs a tonic that will rouse it to do the work of chafljsing. the food into nourish- .ment. The tonic ought to be one that will agree with the most deli- cate stomach, and this is exactly what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills do. Here is a bit of strong proof : Miss Lizzie Macdonald, Harbor- au-Bouche, N. S.. says: 'Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills have done for me what no other medicine did or ap- parently could do. For almost three years I suffered untold ag- ony from indigestion. I would have the most distressing pains in the stomach after eating. I could not deep at night and I would rise in the morning feeling tired and worn out. I lost in weight 4nd was al- most reduced to a shadow. _I was under doctor's treatment almost constajitly, but with no benefit. One day I read the testimonial of % lady who had been cured of plyspepsia by Dr. Williams' Pink pills and decided to try them. The first two or three boxes I took did pot show any apparent relief and I began to fear the medicine would not help me, but as I had bought a half dozen boxes I decided that I would ii!<e them up anyway. To BJy joy, before they were alt used I began to improve and I got three boxes more. By the time T finish- ed tjiese I was again in the best of health, and had gained 12 pounds in weight. I have not since nad a twinge of this terrible trou- ble, and am more grateful than words can say for what Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills have done for me. You can get Dr. Williajns' Pink Pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for 82.50 from The Dr. Wil- liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Dnt. WOMEN BUTCHERS. An Unusual Feminine Oornpation Followed in Paraguay. The butchers in all parts of Para- gua'y, South America, are women. In the public slaughterhouses the cattle are despatched by men. This ia the only part of the work done by men. "The animal is skinned and otherwise prepared by women who are dexterous in the use of the saw and knife. It is served out to the customers by women â€" not generally by weight, but by the piece â€" and the price is very low. Women of all ages act the part of butchers. Some are young and pretty, others old and wrinkled. The women are great bargainers aad keen to pull a new arrival al- niost to pieces in the hope of se- puring his custom, "niese women butchers earn good wages, and many of those in business on their own account acquire a modest for- tune. The cause of this state of things is the heroic war waged by Para- guay more than thirty years ago against the overwhelming forces of Brazil, the Argentine Republic and Uruguay combined. This war, •which lasted five year^ bore many similar points of resemblance to tha recent Boer war. It ended in the almost total annihilation of the able-bodied male population of the country. When the war was over the peo- ple 'had been reduced to the most abject poverty and were oa the verge of starvation. Worse stUl, ovring to the destruction of the male population, perfect anarchy pre- v-ailcd, and all the work formerly performed by males fell on the fair sex. They rebuilt the houses which had been burne<l down, till- ed the fields and wove for them- selves rough homespun clothing from the cotton grown in their own fields.

Hard Thinking ia Done at the Back of the Head. Common opinion has it that the thinking is done in the front part of the brain, so that a high fore- head means a lofty intellect. Com- mon opinion, it turn out, is precise- ly wrong, remarks a scientific man. More hard thinking is done at the back of the head than anywhere else. Much of the rest is done in a re- gion just above the ears. When the thinking involves action the sides and top of the head play their special part. In fact, about the only portion of the outer layers of the brain substance that have never I been found to have the least con- ; nection with any sort of thinking it that lying above the eyes. There is another curious fact about the thinking apparatus. Nine men out of ten at least do all their thinking on the left side of the brain, and might, so far as their purely mental operations are con- cerned, get on just as well if the entire right half were removed. There have been men who have lost a cupful of brains out of the right side of their heads and re- tained all their mental faculties unimpaired. There have been other men in whom the loss of a half thimbleful from the left side has rendered them for the remainder of their lives unable to recognize by sight their own wives. The phrenologists, of course, have the entire brain mapped out like building sitfes â€" combativeness here, order there. This part of one's brain operates when ne puts away 'ais shoes in the closet, and when he thrown them at the cat. Now. as a matter of fact, we have "faculties," in the mind and "or- gans'' in the brain about as much as we have a football-playing mus- cle and a wood-sawing muscle, and still another muscle for standing still. The brain acts as a whole. just as the body does. We use all our muscles to play football, and we use them all to saw wood. •- plaints of the liver and k.dlievs. ' bUl â- >â-  bcavy naanclji loaj? is your palo . ^- t , â-  , ; B, heavy Ciyslcal burden?
