The laps as Physicians.

In speaking of the medical and surgi-
cal ability of the Japanese Sir Frederick
Ireves is reported to have said, before
the meeting of the Japan society in Eng
land, that nothing astounded him more
III his recent visit to Japan than the way
IN which the japanese have inquired
into the medicine and surgery of the
western world and the marvellous thing
they are making out of it. 1t is difficult
TO credit the astonishing advance made
by the japanese in medical equipment in
the army. Many of the problems which
nave been the serious problems of war in
european countries are or have been
solved by the Japanese. British troops
enter war with many determinations
one OF which is to have 10 per cent. Of
SICK, and they get it: The japanese are
quite content with I per cent. of sick,
and they get it. The japanese have all
the qualities of a surgeon. They have in
unite patience and infinite tenderness.
Sir Frederick Treves is confident that
not many years hence there will be seen
IN Japan one of the most progressive
schools of medicine the world has ever
known.

A Hot Weather Hint.

Do you know that the two essen
tails for good health in hot weather are
keeping the system clean and regu-

Mull's Grape Tonic is a valuable
remedy for hot weather. 1t cleanses
the system of all impurities and poi
SINS. It contains nearly SO per cent
grape, which is the best hot weather
tonic known. 1t is an ideal prepare
ton for heat debility and the many
dangerous ills prevailing during sum-
mer weather. 1t fortifies the system
thoroughly.
Heat prostrations, summer bowel
and stomach troubles are rare in fam
lilies where Mull's Grape Tonic is en-
ployed. There is nothing SO dangerous
in hot weather as constipation which
is the result Of the more serious hot
weathe diseases. MulTs Grape Tonic

British Explorer Astonishes London with

The six pigmies brought by Col. Har-
rison from the great unknown forest Of
central Africa have arrived in London.
A few years ago Stanley set the world
talking of the strange little men whom
he discovered on his great march across
Africa. Yesterday the six pigmies, first
of their race to leave the swamps and
forests Of central Africa, rode through
London in a couple Of four-wheeled cabs,
one Of them smoking a Havana cigar as
naturally as a stock broker.
Since Sir Walter Raleigh brought his
red Indians to England over 500 years
ago there have been 10 such strange Wis
itors as these little human monkeys from
the darkest depths Of darkest Africa.
OF the six pigmies four are men and
two are women, but even Col Harrison,
who discovered them in their forest
home, knows Of no relationship between
them.
The little men treat the little women
as inferior beings, who ought to do as
they are told. There are no signs Of af-
