They say that the Vikings were the
first Europeans to cross the Atlantic.
that one after another explored the
coast and returned to Greenland,
thence to Iceland and home again, and
thus were the Danes the first to dis
cover the new world. Be this truth
or fable, there is no doubt that the
spirit Of the sea kings was transferred
to this side of the Atlantic as soon as
the war began between the colonies
and the mother country.
For what was Paul Jones but a Vi
king of the genuine Danish type? His
ancestry is uncertain. but John was a
patron saint of Scandinavia. Jones
is a derivative OF John and one of the
commonest Of names on all the shores
of the North sea. For aught we know,
or for aught Jones knew. he may have
been descendant of a royal Viking
family. for he was born on the Firth
of Forth. where the Danes had forti.
fed settlements and where to the
present day most of the population

his ancestry that as soon as he was

camping grounds for vermin. Such
bedsteads usually have for their i'm
mediate companions some of the old
fashioned bed springs. which appear
very crude when compared with the
elegant and simple springs now found
in all up-to-date homes.

The passing away OF the good old

was substantial and real. which has
been replaced by the shallow and ar.
tificial. but 1t is certainly matter for
congratulation that modern civiliza

old-fashioned quits which were re-
covered again and again at quilting

same objection as the time-honored
feather bed.
1t should always be remembered
that bed clothes are not warm in Pre-.
portion to their weight. but just to the
extent that they have the ability to re-
tain heat, and that this depends more
upon the looseness of their texture
than upon the amount of cotton tina;

again and again with new quilting.
All bedclothes. without regard to
the material from which they are con
structed. should every week spend a
few hours becoming acquainted with

tional advantage OF thoroughgoing

But who furnished them an example! :!

Greek islands under circumstances

st. Joseph. Mo. Mr.. Browne is an ex-
pert timer in the employ of the Nssional
Biscris Co. He gives the following ao-
count of a trying experience:
'' In the spring of 1902" hs says,
"whiie / was regularly working mt my
trade, grew somewhat careless in my
habits of eating and drinking, and finally
found that my appetite WAS tickle. n bad
taste fingered in my mouth, my nerves
twitched and were beyond my control.

sweats would break out over my body at
odd times. Perhaps. while stood talk

of the limbs. and profuse sweating. and
severe chill would seize me. l became
alarmed at my condition and, having
read an endorsement of DIR. Williams
Pink Pills, got box and began to uso
them. They helped me ut once. After

nerves, the trouble with the stomach
aud the cold sweats stopped and have
not reappeared. and my appetite is good.

Dr. Williams Pink Pills cured Mr..
Browne because nothing can strengthen
the nerves except good rich. red blood
and DIR. Williams Pink Pills actually
make new blood They don't act on the
bowels They don't bother with mere
symptoms They drive from the blood
