THE FEAR OF THUNDER.

Electric storms are far less dan
gerous than the majority of people
imagine" writes Edward w Box in
June Ladies' Home Journal THAT 4
severe lightning storm is terrifying
admits of no question, and will some
ines bring uneasiness to the heart of
he strongest man. But the real danger
is slight. The chance of lightning
striking house, for example, is not
one in a million. Particularly is this
true in cities, strung as most of them
are with electric wires. The greater
danger from electric storms is in the
country, and even there the danger
NAV be lessened if the simplest and
most cOmmon-sense of precautions are
exercised. The surest electric conduc-
tor is a draught. and if, when thun-
derstorm approaches, it is seen that
all windows and doors liable to occa-
sion a draught are kept closed, the
danger is at once reduced to a mimi
mum. If a woman is caught out in
a thunderstorm the safest shelter is a
house: the most dangerous a tree,
particularly an oak tree. 1t is a pecu-
liar. but nevertheless n proven fact,
| that the oak is the most susceptible
of all trees to current of electricity
| Over fifty per cent of trees struck by
| lightning storms during one summer
the government statistician tells us
were oaks, while the beech tree was
the least harmed. Therefore, the
worst possible place of shelter in an
electric storm is under an oak tree
while by all odds, the safest place is in
a house and out of draught. The
actual danger (from an electric STORM
| is. in truth, not from the lightning
/ nor the thunder but from the nervous
condition into which women allow
themselves to fall And this is danger
which they can avoid. A little calm

Mrs. Joe PERSON.:
Dear Madam; Allow me to express
my gratitude to you for the wonderful
cure your Remedy made on my little
daughter some eight years ago. She
was afflicted with some blood impurity,
which resulted in boils and sores on
her head, face and neck These
troubled her severely and continuous
ly for eighteen months or more. After
trying different remedies for a long
time, without permanent relief, q
friend advised me to try your medicine.
After a short use of it she began to
improve. When she had taken about
eighteen bottles the boils and sores
were entirely healed and there has
never been any return II them. She
seems now to be entirely well.
l consider your medicine one of the
very best Blood Purifiers on the mar
ket.
Yours very truly.
