Much of the rheu-
matic pain that
comes in damp,
changing weather is
the work of uric
acid crystals.
Needles couldn't
cut, tear or hurt any
worse when the af-
fected muscle joint
is used.
If such attacks are
marked with head-
ache, backache, diz-
ziness and disturb-
ance of the urine,
it's time to help the
weakened kidneys.

An Oregon Case
John H. Matthews. ,17 Kast First St., Tho
Dalles, Ore . says: "My back achi-d so 1 could
hardly stoop or straighten. The kidney se-
cretions became profuse, obliging me to arise
many times u night and the passages were very
painful. My kidneys became so disordered that I
thought I wasdonefor. Doan's KidneyHlls how-
ever, went right to the seat of the trouble and for
oyer three years my cure has been permanent."

Revolving Toothbrush.
Bill—I see by using handles resem-
bling those of a pair of pliers to ro-
tate a spindle, an inventor has
brought out a revolving toothbrush.
Jill—Now, if a fellow mislays his
toothbrush he needn't look for .it, it's
liable to come around to him; but,
on the other hand, if it is going
around all the time, some one else
may get it.

THE BAROMETER OF THE POST
OFFICE, THE READING OF
WHICH SHOWS WESTERN
CANADA'S GROWTH.
Several of Western Canada news-
papers coming to hand during the
last part of the year '1912 contained
items of. news such as the following,
speaking of the Christmas work In
the postofilce:
"Other years have been heavy and
the employees have had plenty of op-
portunity of learning what it was to
work overtime, but the past has had
nothing equal to the present. Forty
extra men have been employed (in
Winnipeg), and mail trains have been
run special. The increase in the mail
this year has been due to the enor-
mous influx of people into Western
Canada during the season;- and also
the general prosperity which the
prairfe provinces have enjoyed. To
the latter cause has been due the
heavy increase in the number of par-
cels which have been shipped to the
old country and Eastern Canada."
The above extract taken from a
Winnipeg paper gives a fair idea of
the great work that the Canadian
postoflices have had all through the
western prairies. During the past
year hundreds of new postoffices were
established, many of them at remote
points from the railway, but all forced
upon the country on account of the
new settlements that have taken
place during the year. It iB said of
the Canadian government that In Its
immigration and settlement policy
there is nothing left undone to take
care of the people and their welfare,
whether it be in the new town along '
a new line of railway or in the re- j
motest hamlet. This solicitude and
care are not confined to the postof-
flce, but with every branch that has
to do with organizing new districts.
Bridges have been built, roads con-
structed, the district policed, and a |
dozen other thing? have to be done j
and are done. Is it any wonder that
I with the splendid land, the high
yielding land, the land that is free to
the homesteader or open to purchase
at reasonable prices from the railway
| and land companies, that the Cana-
dian immigration records for 1912
j will show arrivals of upwards of
| 400,000, one-half of this being from the
j United States. The new literature
; being sent out by the immigration
I branch at Ottawa, and its agencies
i throughout the United States deals
| with many of the new and interesting
features that will mark the work of
that branch for the year 1913.—Ad-
vertisement.
Taste.
"Which has the best taste, you or
your wife?"
"I am sure my wife has."
"That is very generous of you."
"I could not well deny it, in view
of the person each of us married."
Solved.
"Twelve persons for dinner! Aren't
you crazy ?" '
"We might invite a thirteenth; that
would perhaps take away their appe-
tite."

Queer Sex.
"Yes," said the man at the end of
the bar, as he ordered his second
drink, "women sure are queer crea-
tures. I came home tonight and
thought my wife looked a little down
in the mouth. So I said: 'After sup-
per\let's go to the theater.' And she
burst into tears and said: 'Me busy
all day doing up preserves and you
come home and ask me to go to the
theater.' She was still crying when I
came /ut. It beats all, doesn't it?
