Food For Birds That Ia Preserved In

The Arctic Regions.
The number of birds that go to the
arctic regions to breed is vast beyond
conception. They so not by thou
sands, but by tens and hundreds Of
thousands, aud because nowhere else
In the world does nature provide at
the same time and in the same place
such lavish prodigalIty of food.
The vegetation consists of cranberry.

the arctic summer, and If the fruit eat
Ing birds had to wait until it was ripe
they would starye in the meantime, SO
they arrive on the very day OF the
melting of the snow.
But each year the snow descends on
an immense crop of ripe fruit before

The frozen meal stretches across the
breadth of northern Asia. 1t never
decays and is accessible the moment
the snow melts. The same heat which
thaws the fruit brings into being the
most prolific insect life in the world
the mosquito swarms on the tundra.
No European can live there without n
veil after the snow melts. The gun
barrels are black with them, and
clouds OF them often obscure the sight.

IN A WEAK SPOT
THE STORY OF AN ATTACK AND
IT'S REPULSE
A Thrilling Account rs Told by Vet
eraa OF the One Hundred and Fifty
fourth Indiana Volunteers.

Jacob 7. Keller, of Girard, Kans. :.
is veteran who saw long and hard
service in the civil war with the One
Hundred and Fifty fourth Indiana
Volunteers and he tells many a story
of bivouac and battle. He was re-
counting some of his adventures to a
reporter the other day

and out of it, he said, tone is most
often uppermost in my thoughts.

but | thought | had got over it all

however, when | was blowing for

Rheumatism set in and | had to quit

other to get some relief from the
pain but nothing that / took helped
me at all and | became discouraged.
1.-THE cords of my left leg were
drawn so badly that | could not
straighten it out at all, nor could
sit down My hip and knee panied
me and | suffered horribly. At times
also | had nervous headache. After
trying a number of things, my daugh-
ter, Mrs Fry, who had been cured of
rheumatism by DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People, induced me to
try that remedy. My case was a very
stubborn one and took five boxes of
the pills before | could see much
change but | kept on and they GER
tainly did wonders for me- The cords
in my leg began to slacken and before
long it limbered so that | could use
it again and be able to sit down My
kidneys had been bad and the pills
soon made them better, too Dr.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
are grand, good medicine and | rec
ommend them to all who suffer as [
did. -
The real cause of rheumatism is the
presence of acid in the blood, which
irritates the sensitive tissues that
unite the joints and cover the mus
cles, thus causing those indescribable
tortures which rheumatic sufferers
endure. Years ago those afflicted
were bled; as if taking away some of
the impure blood could remedy the
balance. This folly has been aban-
doned and today physicians prescribe
and druggists recommend the use of
DR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People, as these marvellous vegetable
pills go directly to the seat of the
trouble, exerting a powerful influence
in purifying and enriching the blood
by eliminating poisonous elements
and renewing health giving force,
thus making potent remedy for cur
ing this disease.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People are an unfailing specific for
all diseases arising from impoverish
ed blood or shattered nerves. They
cure not only rheumatism but locomo-
tor ataxia, partial paralysis, ST. Vitus'
dance, sciatica, neuralgia, nervous
headache, after effects of grip, of
fevers and of other acute diseases,
palpitation of the heart, anaemia,
