Life Without Mind.

The possibility of life without mind,
while not subject to positive proof, is
a theory that has gained considerable
strength recently through its advocacy
by DR.. L. Laloy, librarian of the
Academy of Sciences, Paris. He be-
lieves that many of the smaller living
organisms, such as insects, are mere
moving machines, having no more in
telligence than may be ascribed to
plants. He refers to the we'll known
fact that insects are attracted by light,
often to their W destruction, and as
cribes it to the same cause that in.
clines the plant to grow toward the
light.

Any bodily weakness caused by a

the grip. I was confined to my bed
for tive weeks. At the end of that
time I was able to be about, but was
completely run down. I was so weak
I could hardly stand, my cheeks had
no color and / felt faint. My heart
would Autter and it was difficult for
me to breathe at times. Neuralgia
settled in the back of my head and
stomach and I suffered from rheuma-
tism in my shoulders.

friend told me one day how she had

Pills and I decided to try them. /

them until I wa entirely cured. They
built me up again to perfect health
and I use them now whenever I feel
at all sick and they always help me"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are inval-
unable In such cases, as well as in
other blood diseases, because they not

1.-The Old World and Its Ways"

Col. William Jennings Bryan
announces a new book of travel
entitled THE Old World and Its
Ways" which recounts his recent
tour around the world and his
journeys through Europe. 1t is
profusely and elegantly illustra-
ted with 240 artistic engravings
representing men and things seen
in the various countries of the
earth during that noted journey.
The engravings are made from
photographs taken by him or his
party specially for this publica-
ton. 1t is the monumental liter

what he saw and did-whom he
met an his impressions and con
clusions. He made a profound
study of men and things as he
saw them in this noted journey
around the world. He gives gov
ernmental, educational, religious
and other conditions, from the
standpoint of student and one
profoundly interested in all the
people of the earth.
While Col Bryan travelled as a
private citizen he went with the
prestige of having made two
memorable contests tor the Pres
idency of the United States. and
he was everywhere recognized
and entertained as a great repre-
sentative American, having a
leading part in the direction OF
American affairs. He was gwen
opportunity for observations
never before accorded to any one
travelling in private capacity.
If one wants to see the world,

head of affairs in all countries, as
we'll as the masses, he has in this
book an oppor unity of seeing
them through the eyes of Col.

ABOUT all that Harry Orchard

the wickedest liar and murderer
