For many months he had beeh eating

following one of the mine layers while
it operates, you would probably have j !
been surprised at the apparent sim¬ ]
plicity of the tusk. The vessel was j
going at its full speed; at intervals ) ]
of a few seconds, huge black objects, !
about five feet high, would be observed |
gliding toward the stern at this point !

they would then give a mighty lurch,
fall head first into the water, sending
tip a great splash, and sink beneath the
waves. By the time the disturbance
was over the ship would have ad¬
vanced a considerable distance; then, i
in a few seconds, another black ob¬
ject would roll toward the stern, make I
a similar plunge and disappear."

New Anaesthetic Ether.
Dr. .lames Cotton of Toronto. Can.,
has hit upon a new ether of analgesic
properties; according to the Dupont
Magazine, it eliminates pain without
making the patient unconscious or sick
at the stomach. The discovery is es
pecially adapted to such painful op¬
erations as sewing wounds, opening
and treating abscesses and changing
packings and dressings in po.st-opera
tive work. Tests that have been con
ducted at various hospitals have shown
that its use is followed by no un¬
desirable effects.

Acts on the Liver,
Regulates Kidneys,
Purifies the Blood
The liver is the largest and most Im¬
portant organ in the body, and when the
liver refuses to act, it causes constipa¬
tion, biliousness, headaches, indigestion,
gas, sour stomach, bad breath, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains in the hack and under
shoulder blades anil under ribs on right
side. These symptoms lead to colds, in¬
fluenza or other serious troubles unless
corrected immediately.
An inactive liver places an ejttra bur¬
den on the kidneys, which overtaxes
them and causes the blood to absorb and
carry into the system the impurities that
the liver and kidneys have failed to elim¬
inate.
When you treat the liver alone, you
treat only a third of your trouble, and
that Is why you have to take purgatives
every few nights. Calomel or other ordi¬
nary laxatives do not go far enough If
you would treat your kidneys and blood
while treating the liver, you would put
your entire system in order and frequent
purgatives would then be unnecessary.
Dr. W. L. Hitchcock many years ago
recognized these important facts, and aft¬
er much study and research, compound¬
ed what Is now known as Dr. Hitch¬
cock's Liver, Kidney and Blood Powders,
