The Breath ofLife.

It's significant fact that the strongest ami
nal Of its size, the gorilla, also has the largest
lungs. Powerful lungs means powerful crea-
lures. How to keep the breathing organs
right should be mans chiefest study. Like
thousands Of others, Mn. Ora A. Stephens,
of Port Williams, o.. has learned how TO do
this. She writes: Three bottles Of DR..

Canaries.

Sometimes canary's coat gets a
pale, sickly yellow. Give him half an
ounce of ground red pepper such as Is
used on your table and let the bird eat
it as he likes. In week he'll turn a
beautiful orange color. Bird lice are
troublesome at times. A pinch of pow
dered saffron put under the wings will
drive away the pests. Gravel in the
cage every day and dish Of tepid wa
ter for a bath every other day are in
dispensable TO the singers health and

There are many men who wear their
hats practically all the time when awake.

would ensue as the final result. New

stimulates unhealthy hair to abundant
