Al 5 o'clock in the evening We has.

the. hour when the greatest amount
OF wealth Is shown. For wealth AM,
show Newport is not up to Hyde Park.
In the park is a drive, way about 2
miles long, which Is crowded with
costly carriages OF all description, anil
the most beautiful horses in the world.
The Season" at Hyde Park closes 1T
The end Of July and the people leave
the city. Not many autos are seen
on this drive. as the people seem to
prefer the horse. n
The streets OF London are some
what different from ours. The cars
do not run on the busy streets in the
central parts Of the city but on the
outside streets. This rule has one
exception. where the, cars run below
the Parliament building. In place OF
the cars they have the bus. and they
have them in great number. They
have their different destinations print.

drives calls for passengers. II how
ever, the bus Is filled he will not per.
nit another passenger to como
aboard. In fine weather most of the
people ride on top, and as they ride
they read. Everybody reads when
he travels. The streets are so crowd.
ed with these buses that right of way
Is given by the raising Of n police.
mans hand, the rule OF the road be.
ing to the left and MOTTO the right.
When crossing the street on foot,
II you can not make 1t clear across III
one attempt you stop on raised place
which. runs along the middle OF the
street and wait for another chance.
Where two streets cross they call 1t
circus, and to pass one line has to
stop for while, then the other, both
lines could not pas at the same time
II they had too. This same crowd
ed condition prevails in the outside
districts. ss
One OF the "London types" of ltu.
manity is the class Of old women
whose condition Is so miserable. Rea.
soning out their source we concluded
that the London girls who today are
on the streets selling post cards, pea
nuts. shoe-strings and other such ar.
ticles will be the old and miserable
women OF the future. This is one Of
the social problems which to-day Is
causing LONDON great deal OF study.
Though the streets are crowded
and the traffic is great, 1t Is not n
great deal Of troubel to travel. Each
hotel Of any prominence has wills.
tie. which. when blown, will bring you

two. This. and the system OF giving
right OF way to certain vehicles make
London travel pleasant rather than
disagreeable. &

aTlle Blood is The Lire.n

Science has never gone beyond the
above simple statement OF scripture.
But it Inns illuminated that statement
and given it a meaning ever broadening
with the increasing breadth of knowl-
edge. When the blood is e bad " or i'm
pure it ia not alone the body which
suffers through disease. The brain is
also clouded, the mind and judgement
are effected, and many IN evil deed or
impure thought may be directly traced
to the impurity OF the blood. Foul,
impure blood can be made pure by the
use Of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
eovery; 1t enriches and purifes the
blood thereby curing, pimples, bloteles,
eruptions and other cutaneous affections,
as eczema, letter, or salt-rheum, hives
and other manifestations OF impure
