The Elephants Curiosity

Inc Elepnant curiosity
Doggy and 90 la la hidden among
4 the large leaves of the palm tree,
gazed eagerly down the wide road.
Through the heavy dust elephants were
surging forward-dozens of elephants,
tall elephants, short elephants, fat ele-
plants, lean elephants.
On the head of each elephant sat a
driver, and on the back of each ele
phant was glittering howdah or load
of baggage.
Il never saw so many elephants in a
circus parade" whispered Peggy to
90 la la.
They say you can tell how big a
circus is by the number of elephants it
really has" replied 90 la. IF
this is n circus it surely is a monster.
1T must be circus. Don't you hear
the music?" said Peggy, as the steady
beat of tom toms and drums came to
their ears.
THAT isn't regular circus music, and
I'm sure that parade isn't a circus
parade. 1t is some mighty prince of
India travelling with his train of at

PERPETUAL CALENDARS?
NEVER, SAY ASTRONOMERS
Scientists Here Belle Story Of Discovery by Italian Priest
365.242222 Plus Days in Year, That's the Reason

an indivisible number of days in a
year. 1t is a decimal number that is
indivisible. Instead of the 365 days
in the year as is popularity believed,
there are 365. .242222222 plus, with all
the attendant complications of an un-
equal number of weeks in a month, leap
year and the like"
"You can't possibly divide 1854 into
an equal number" said Doctor Barton.
you cant divide the seven days OF
the week into it so as to get an equal
number of weeks. Consequently you
have one year beginning on a Monday
and the next year on Tuesday. And
that's the pons asinorum for the calen-
dar makers. If there were 364 days in
a year, or any other number divisible
by seven, the job would be easy
Scatigna's calendar consists of two
discs, one superimposeds dsupon the other.
BY turning the discs the correct day,
week and month and year may be OBJ
tained. If the claim of the inventor is
confirmed it will disprove the prediction
of the great astronomer, Herschell, that
perpetual calendar never could be de-
| yised.

WHAT GOOD Is WEALTH

if you are in poor health, if almost ev-
erything that you eat distresses you,
frequent headaches, pains in the stomach,
bad taste in the mouth, dark rings under
the eyes, etc.g The fact is, life is not
worth living if you are a chronic sufferer
from indigestion and bilousness
When the stomach is out of order, the
liver not working properly, your heart is
obliged to do so much extra work, that
it causes palpitation, faintness, and if
not checked becomes dangerous.
To feel fresh and fit for your daily
duties, you must keep your stomach well,
your liver active, and the bowels regu-
lar; you can get into this healthy condi-
ton, by taking SEVEN BARKS; as a
digestive tonic, and stomach remedy, it
has no equal, and so years of continuous
sale proves its wonderful merit.
Get at The root of your Indigestion and
constipation trouble by driving all poi
sons out of your system for good. No
matter how chronic your case is, you can
get quick relief by taking natures rem
edy, SEVEN BARKS; one bottle costing

proven its wonderful efficiency, you will
never be without it. Ask your druggist
for it.--Ady,
