The Ideal Family Laxative.

Is one that can be used by the entire
family, young and old, weak and
strong, without any danger of harmful
effects. 1t should have properties
which insure the same dose always
having the same effect, otherwise the
, quantity will have to be increased and
finally lose it's effect altogether. These
properties can be found in that old
family remedy, Brandreths Pills, be-
cause it's ingredients are of the purest
herbal extracts, and every pill Is kept
for three years before being sold,
which allows them to mellow. We do
not believe there is a laxative on the
market that is so carefully made.
Brandreth's Pills are the same fine
laxative tonic pills your grandparents
used. They have been in use for over
a century and are for sale everywhere,
either plain or sugar-coated

The Zulu War Cry.

The Zulu war cry, used whenever
they take the field by the South Afri-
can footballers now in London, has
puzzled our newspapers, not one of
which seems able to spell it correctly,
says Notes and Queries. The Daily
Express gives it as 'Igamilzho," and
the Daily Mail as "Gammillo." The
cry really consists of two words, and
should be written ''Igama layo."
"Igama" is Zulu for name" and
"layo" is possessive pronoun, mean
Ing either "his" or their" Thus the
Daily Mail, although quite wrong in
its photography of the cry, is right in
saying that it merely means That is
his name" The explanation is that
Zulu etiquette does not allow warriors,
when they rush into battle, to men
ton the names of their enemies, but
the leaders shout out, THAT is his
NAME" pointing to the victims with
their spears.

A Rule and an Exception.

According to the New York Trib-

rule Of etiquette: when a lady and
gentleman are walking in the street,
the lady should walk inside Of the
gentleman"
1t seems little strange that this
simple rule, so long current among
the cannibal tribes of the Andaman
and other islands, should find its way
into rural journal of more or less
civilization. 1t would appear that the
etiquette editor of the paper in ques-
ton was either too careless or too
hurried to note any exceptions to the
rule. Otherwise he would have ex.
planned that when the gentleman was

Some people, clock lovers these,
couldn't sleep without clock in the

and it scares away the spooks. Such
people would wake up if the clock
should stop in the middle of the
night.
But there are other people who
can't sleep with a clock in the same
room and who, if they found them
selves in strange place anywhere
with clock in their sleeping apart
ment, would stop the clock before
they went to bed.

in this; but we have our fancies about

They CURE RHEUMATISM
A Particularly Painful Form Of This
Disease Yields to Dr.. Williams
f~f Pink Pills.

QftShe many forms which rheumatism
takes, that which is popularity known as
sciatic rheumatism probably tortures its
victim more than any other. That DR..
Williams Pink Pills have cured this
stubborn as well as painful trouble is a
fact proven by the following statement,
and no sufferer who reads this can af-
ford to let prejudice stand in the way Of
trying these blood-making pills.
Rheumatism is now generally re-
cognized as disease of the blood. DIR.

make-pure blood. When the blood is
pure there can be no rheumatism. Mrs.
Thomas Bresnehan, of "a Mill street,
Watertown, N. Y, says:
"My trouble began with severe cold
which I took about week before
Christmas in 1904. I began to have
rheumatic pains in my back and limbs
and after a time I couldn't straighten
up. suffered the most awful pain for
months and much of the time was IN
able to leave the house and had to take
hold of a chair in order to walk and
sometimes / could not stand up at all.
The disease was pronounced sciatic
rheumatism and, although had good
physician and took his medicine fi:ith-
fully, did not get any better. After
some six weeks of this terrible pain and
suffering ] tried DR.. Williams Pink
Pills and that is the medicine that cured
me. After few boxes the pain was
less intense and could see decided i'm
provement. l continued to take the pills
until l was entirely cured and | have
never had any return of the trouble"

France Explained by Minister
of Public Worship.

Paris, Nov. 4-The minister of pub
lie worship, M. BRAND, Saturday an
nounced in an authorized interview
that the government did not regard
the Catholic church as being in re-
volt against the law providing for the
separation of the church and state,
or against the state. The Catholic
church having simply declined to take
advantage Of its privilege, under the
law, as other religions did, on Deem
Der IL. would forfeit it's $S0,000,000
of property and hereafter would live
under the common law. There would
lie neither martyrdom nor persecn-
lions of the faithful The churches,
as state and communal property
would remain open for Catholic wor-
ship.
The object for which the republican
party in France had struggled for so
years, the minister said, had been
achieved The concordat was at an
end, the state would no longer con
tribute to the support of any religion,
and priests would no longer enjoy
privileges In both their duties and
obligations they would be on equality
with other citizens. In other words,
the state was at least neutral towards
all religions and would permit the
exercise of all of them with special
favors to none.

Every mother possesses information
which is of vital interest to her young
daughter.
Too often this is never impaired or is
withheld until serious harm has result
ed to the growing girl through her
ignorance of natures mysterious and
wonderful laws and penalties.
Girls over-sensitiveness and modesty
often puzzle their mothers and battle
physicians, as they SO often withhold
their confidence from their mothers
and conceal the symptoms which ought
to be told to their physician at this
critical period.
When a girls thoughts become slug
gish, with headache, dizziness or dis
position to sleep, pains in back or lower
limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude;
when she is a mystery to herself and
friends, her mother should come to her
aid, and remember that Lydia e. Pink

this time prepare the system for the
coming change, and start this trying
period in a young girls life without

Russia Thru French Eyes.

The statement to the Associated
Press of NJ. Leroy-Beaulieu, the emf
nent French scholar and historian, con-
firms what is dimly known thruout the
world, that there is a vast and mystic
rious upheaval going on in Russia. The
worst that has been suspected OF the
origin of the attacks upon the Jews is
confirmed by his observations on the
ground. The possible fate Of the mon
archy, is more than limited at by him,
and the root Of the prevailing discon-
tent is placed where the best-informed
men in Russia have placed it, in the
agrarian question.
Russia, an essentially agricultural
country, has been treated by the .bu:
reaucratic government like vast hunt
ing preserve. 1t is a country for farms
rather than estates, yet it has some OF
the most magnificent estates in the
world, and some of the most miserable
farms.
M. Leroy-Beaulieu, nor any othe7
man, can foresee the precise conclusion
of the Russian struggle, but he has nj
hesitation in saying that the autocracy
is at an end. The only question will
the car now is how fast and how fa
he shall advance. He cannot recede.
