Age Limits Revised.

NeW Yofk IImeB.
 Not long ago there was much remark over the announcement by many large employers that they would not engage men beyond an age so young that many were startled. Insurance actuaries were telling us that expectations of life were increasing, and here was a dis nal thrusting back of the period of usefulness, all too short at best. It was later explained that the age limit was intended to apply to beginners, tirenients from duty.
 Now comes the further announcement by several railways that even this mod flied restriction is found impracticable.

Niagara Water Power,

The commissioners of Queen Victo-
ria park. on the Canadian side of Nj
agsra falls, show proper sense of the
condition now affecting that majestic
cataract. They have Just issued their
nineteenth annual report and laid it
before the Ontario Legislature, set
ting forth that halt must be called
in the granting of franchises at theN
falls and that too many have been
given away already. Three Of them
are now in the possession Of private
companies and a fourth, permitting the
creation Of 100000 more horsepower
from the Chippewa river, is under con-
sideration. This will make an aggre-
gate on the Canadian side of 475,000
horsepower, which the commissioners
think should not, at the present time
be exceeded. If more are to be given
hereafter they should cost the grantees
more, and in particular care should be
taken that the shores above and be-
low the falls be not marred by un-
slightly buildings.

For Growing Girls.

West Pembroke, Me-, April "a
Mrs. A. L. Smith. of this place. says
that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best
remedy for growing girls. Mrs. Smith
emphasizes her recommendation by
the following experience:
my daughter was thirteen years old
last November and 1t is now two years
since she was first taken with Crazy
Spells that would last q week and
would then pass of. In a month che
would have the spells again. At these
times she would eat very little and
was very yellow; even the whites of
her eyes would be yellow.
THE doctors gave US no encourage
ment. they all said they could not help
her. After taking one box of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, she has not had one bad
spell. OF course, we continued the
treatment until she had used in all
about dozen boxes. and we still give
them to her occasionally. when she is
not feeling well. Dodds Kidney Pills
are certainly the best medicine for
growing girls"
Mothers should heed the advice of
Mrs. Smith. for by SO doing. they may
save their daughters much pain and
sickness and ensure q healthy, happy
future for them.

for the application Of radium. Won
derful things were expected of radium.
and its discovery by Professor Curie
and his wife had barely been an
nounced when leading scientists be-
gan striving to find way in which the
new force could be used to destroy dis
ease germs. All these practically
failed. Now, however, a chemist OF
New York claims to have succeeded in
dissolving radium and that the result
ing solution exerted all the activity Of
the pure radium.
Surgeons and physicians OF the
Flower hospital staff decided to give
the solution a trial and selected wo-
man eighty-two years old. who was
dying from a cancer on the instep OF
her left foot.

Sunday will have to be readjusted.
Have later breakfast. if desired.
but have then n very light one, even
if you are hungry. Or If it must be
hearty, then do not upset your diges-

avoided ana have but two meals OH
that day. and eat no other. 1t would
be far better to have three light meals.
lighter than usual if that could be ar
ranged to fit with other household ar
rangements. The custom of noon dim
ner on that day arises from the usual
absence OF cook or maid at the lat
ter one, and this may Aoe unavoidable.
Very well, then treat this as II rest
