A SAFE TEST

For those who are in need of a
remedy for kidney troubles and back
ache, it is a good plan to try Doan's
Kidney Pills. They are strongly rec
commended by Mineral Point people.
Ask your neighbor.
Ben Tonkin, plasterer and stone
mason, 100 Spruce street, Mineral
Point, says: 1.-TWO years ago | had a
bad attack of kidney complaint and
l got so / could hardly get about. I
thought at first it was rheumatism.
My kidneys were disordered and the
secretions passed too frequently. My
back never let up paining and it
broke my rest at night. One day 1
met a man on the street who recon-
mended Doan's Kidney Pills so l
went to the ReXall Drug Store and
got two boxes. I used them as di-
rected and they cured me up sound
and well. I have been telling people
about Doan's and have recommend
ed them ever since they cured me. :"
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get

ARAB HORSE EASILY LEADER
Finest Specimens Of the Race, Of Which
the United States Has the Best,
ls Abundant Proof.

The tradition ascribing to the Arab
horse extraordinary endurance is sus
tanned by abundant evidence. AS illus.
tration, a 3O0-mile test was made
in 1919 from Fort Ethan Allan, Yer.
mont, to Camp Devens, Massachusetts,,
and the first horse to finish was
pure-bred Arab mare named Ramla,
which made the distance in 81 hours
26 minutes and 80 seconds; the ami.
NAL placed second was KingfiSher,
three-fOurths Arab and One-fOurth
thoroughbred. The animal that fin
ished third in the endurance test was
also a pure-bred Arab mare, and the
one to finish fourth was a three
fourths grade Arab, the dam of King.
fisher.
In the army tests Of 1920 the Arabs
again made remarkable showing.
H. X. Bush-Brown, who presented
the case for the Arab in the Journal
of Heredity, offers an explanation Of
the extraordinary endurance of ami
mails of this breed, based in part on
the fact that. the Arab has only five
lumbar vertebrate (between the ribs
and the pelvis), while all other fam
lilies of horses have six. This differ.
cnce in structure is believed to ex.
plain why the Arab, though small, can
carry great weight. The anomaly IL.
illustrates the relation between struc.
ture and function.-Hearst's Interna'

Everyday Allusions.

A lot of people believe today that
the expression Mad as March
Hare has something to do with the
queer antics of one Of the characters
in Lewis Carrolls "Alice in Wonder
laid"
The truth is, that the saying is
based upon popular usage of natural
history fact.
In the month of March, which is
their mating and breeding time, the
hares of our fields and those of Eng
land, Belgium and other countries
where these rodents abound, become
victims of fits which at times send
them bounding like wild things
through the woods and across the
meadows.
To be as mad as a March Hare"
does not mean insanity, but irration'
atty, a stage of mental wildness that
will make people act as though they
had lost proper sense of proportion.
without, however, having their mental
abilities permanently impaired.-

GREATEST OF ALL MACHINES
Human Heart Has Capacity Which All
Modern Ingenuity Has Found 1t
Impossible to Guido.

The pulse of the great Napoleon Is
said to have made only fifty beats a
minute. Eighty is not an unusual
number.
But. supposing the case Of heart
that beats Is times a minute, expel-
ling ten cubic inches of blood at each
stroke" it is apparent that the little
pump delivers 45 cubic inches in one
hour. over 100000 cubic inches In a
day, or Gas may be easily reckoned)
about 1000 tons Of vital fluid in
twelvemOnth.
In figuring this out, the Scientific
American calls attention to the fact
that a human heart has four compart-
ments-two auricles and two ventri-
cles. The auricles are merely reser-
voirs. The energy developed by the
pump is furnished by the right and left
ventricles-the right one sending i'm
pure blood to the lungs and the left
one forcing the purified blood into cir
culation.
The left ventricle alone uses In q
day enough energy to raise one ton ~
feet.
ALI the blood pumped by one heart
engine in one year would suffice to fill
a tank 81 feet long, 81 feet wide and
81 feet high. Or, II the tank were
cylindrical and so feet in diameter, 1t
would have to be LIS feet high in or
der to hold the 100000 gallons
pumped by single heart In the course
of q twelvemonth.

GERMANY LOST TOY MARKET
United States and Japan Now Supply
Canaoa With Plsythings She
Does Not Produces.

The United. States is now first IN
supplying. those toys needed to supple
ment the output of Canadian factories.
The additional quantity required by
Canada to supply its own domestic
trade amounted in the last year to ST.
100000 WORTH Before the war Ger
many was the chief source of supply,
but the United States now leads and
Japan has likewise made notable adj
vance in its toy shipments to that
market. In 1913 American exports of
toys to Canada amounted to $273,l3S
and in the year ended March 81, 1920,
the total was $1,136,372. Japan's trade
grew from $1S,73S to $277,946 in the
same. period, while there was only a
small increase in toys sent from the
United Kingdom.
The toy and doll industry Of Can
ada, according to Vice. Consul Horace
NJ. Sanford at OTTAWA, has made con-
siderable advance compared with pre-
war time, but Imports were needed 10
meet the domestic demand. At the
present time some thirty-five Canadian
toy factories are listed, although the
census returns of 1918 reported only
fifteen. The kinds Of toys made there
include animals, autos, balls, billiard
games, boats, building blocks, car
riages crokinole boards, crOquet sets,
dishes, dolls furniture, games, garden
sets, lawn swings, pool tables, tricycles
and wheelbarrows, which are made of
celluloid, eramel, iron, steel, tin, rub
ber and wood.
Last year Canada exported $139, 9,052
worth Of dolls and toys, the United
States taking $685. worth and the
United Kingdom $120,322.
