by his fiancee, whom he was to mar
ry on the day of his departure, has
band and wife subsisting exclusively
the whole time on the viscount's earn
ings as an amateur painter. There
was no stipulation as to time.

complishing their undertaking and
winning their bet. They have +rav-
ersed Europe. America, Africa ard
Australia, living on nothing but the
meagre profits of the viscount's brush.

~ abused my stomach, my blood got
out Of order and then my face broke out
with pimples and boils, - says T. E. Rob-
ertson, of 1877 Addison street, Washing
ton, Pa. "This was over two years ago.
NV stomach was in bad shape. After
eating I would have to rest awhile or
would suffer the most severe pains in
my stomach. On arising would often
be SO dizzy that could hardly stand up.
The slightest exertion would start my
back aching SO that / often had to sit
down and rest awhile. At times l ex-
perienced pain around the heart which
alarmed me but which l suppose came
from my stomach trouble.
II began to break out on the face with
pimples and later with boils which con-
fined me to the house week or more at
a time. One day l saw DR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People advertised in a
pamphlet which was left at the door and
thought would give them trial.
took several boxes of the pills before all
the pimples and boils left me, but am
now glad to say that my blood is good.
I do not have any eruptions and l no
longer have the head and stomach
troubles I have described. l am very
grateful for what DIR. Williams Pink Pills
have done for ME and l have recon-
mended them and always will advise
those who are suffering from bad blood
or stomach trouble to try them"
If you want good health you must have
good blood. Bad blood is the root of most
common diseases like anamia, rheuma-
tism, sciatica, neuralgia, ST. Vitus dance,
nervousness, indigestion, debility, par
tial paralysis and locomotor ataxia.

THIS IS MY 53rd BIRTHDAY,
Beerbohm Tree.

. . .
Beerbohm Tree, the renowned ro-
mantle and tragic actor, was born in
London. December II, 1853 His real
name is Beerbohm, which has been
anglicized into Tree for stage purpos-
es. Mr.. Tree was educated in Ger
many and made his first appearance
on the stage in 1878. He made his
reputation in 'The Private Secretary"
in the role of Rev. Robert Spalding.
He had played, it is said, about 100
parts before he studied the ways,
tricks and manners of a meek young
curate," whom he CHANGED to meet at
a dinner party and set all the theater-
going world crazy with his revelation
of the character in the role of Mr.
Spalding. In 1887 Mr.. Tree became the
manager of the Haymarket Theater,
London, holding the position until
1896, when he became the proprietor
and manager of Her Majesty's theater
Mr.. Tree and his wife, whose stage
name is Maud Holt, have made several
successful tours of America.

All of the Cobalt stocks have been

the effect of turning mining specula-

but that there is real value in the CO.

thing for the other Cobalt shares is
for the Nipissing affair to be closed up
