THE BLOOD is the LIFE of the FLESH

Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills-What they are and Their Four Principal Ingredients. what they do.

It is an established fact that all diseases spring from one source, namely: Impurity of the Blood. Therefore our strength, health, and life depend upon the vital fluid. When the various passages become clogged, and do not act in perfect harmony with the different functions of the body, the blood loses its action, becomes thick, corrupted, and diseased, thus causing pains, sickness, and distress of every name; our strength is exhausted; and if Nature is not assisted in throwing off the stagnant humours, the blood will become choked and cease to act, and thus our light of life will be extinguished. How important, then, that we should keep the various passages of the body free and open, and if assistance is necessary to have at hand that invaluable remedy, Dr. MORSE'S INDIAN ROOT PILLS, manufactured from plants and roots which grow around the mountain cliffs in Nature's garden, for the health and recovery of diseased man.

SUDORIFIC, which opens the One of the roots from which these Pills are made is pores of the skin, and assists Nature in throwing out the finer parts of the corruption within.

The second is a plant which is an EXPECTORANT that opens and unclogs the passage to the lungs, and thus in a soothing manner performs its duty by throwing off the phlegm and other humours from the lungs by copious spitting.

The third is a DIURETIC, which gives ease and double strength to the Kidneys; thus encouraged, they draw large amounts of impurity from the blood, which is thrown out bountifully by the urinary or water passages, and which could not have been discharged in any other way.

The fourth is a CATHARTIC, and accompanies the other properties of the Pills while engaged in purifying the blood, and the coarser particles of impurity which cannot pass by the other outlets are thus taken up and conveyed off in large quantities by the bowels.

From the foregoing it is shown that Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills not only enter the stomach, but become united with the blood, for they find the way to every part, and completely root out and cleanse the system from all impurity, and the life of the body, which is the blood becomes perfectly healthy; consequently all sickness and pain are driven from the system, for they cannot remain when the body becomes pure and clean.

Dr. Morse's IxDIAN ROOT PILLS are an efficient, rehable, and safe remedy placed on the market at a price within the reach of all. The Pills being sugar-conted, am pleasant to take, sind retain their full medicinal properties. They are rechee in andercoloured hottles-ant in cheap wooden or pasteboard boxes-and are thus always, fresh and clean, impervious to moisture, unaffected by climatic conditions, and do not deteriorate by keeping as all quid medicines do.

BUGLER HERO DEAD, BLEW THE "OHARGE" INSTEAD OF THE "RETREAT."

Rolland, the hero of the battle of Sidi The Paris newspapers state that Bugler Brahim, has died at Lacalni (Aveyron), at the age of ninety-five, says a Reuter

message.

Sidi Brahim a village in the De partment of Oran. In the early days of the French conquest of Algeria (in 1845) it was the scene of a gallant defence by a detachment of seventy-nine Chasseurs- a-Pied against the forces of the Abd-el- Kader.

A Polish correspondent writes to the London Daily Telegraph as follows:-

The Polish question is becoming more and more complicated for Berlin. It is, known that at the beginning of the war the Central Empires expected to see the Polish nation take sides with them against Russia. They counted upon a revolution in the kingdom. If it is remembered

Galicia, with the Galician National Committee at their head, not content with fulfilling their strict duty towards Austria-Hungary wished to unite the lot of Poland to that of the Hapaburga y forming legions of volunteers, This itu do was sternly criticised in the other Farts of Galicie, in Prussian Poland, and in the kingdom. It was known that since Sadowa Austria had granted to the Poles a considerable measure of national liberty, but it was understood, none the less, that as far as their future was concerned Austria would always be the vassal of Prussia, Puland's most terrible

enemy.

A DISILLUSIONMENT.

The patriotic intentions of the Galician National Committee and of the Polish Club at Vienna are beyond suspicion. Berlin was always the object of their distrust, but they believed that Austria bad a will of her own, and that she was prompted by friendly intentions with

Poland. regard to

This deplorable political error brought upon their heads a series of discomfitures, of which the last have been the most violent. War saw, according to their hopes, would have been occupied by the Austrian armies, with the Polish legions at their side; it was the German army alone that ontered the town. On the other hand, the Austro-German. proclamation of the In- dependence of Poland, promised long ago, has not yet been published. This was to be expected.

It was here that the Polish Club and the Galician National Committee took a characteristic attitude. The Police Club has declared that it would accept, as a dogma, the union of the whole of Rus sian Poland to the whole of Galicia under the seeptre of the Hapsburgs. The point of this declaration was directed in a non- equivocal way against Germany and the Hohenzollerns. But the German Press protested vigorously, In Berlin they faughed at the Polish politics of Vienna, find at their fantaisies d'indépendanco" (dreams of independence), -forge ting, doubtless, that at the beginning of the war, when it was a question of gaining the sympathy of the Polish population, the Supreme German command had sent out proclamations declaring, "We bring you liberty and independence."

COMMANDER'S ORDER.

The Arabs renewed the attack, and at what he deemed the opportune moment the Arab commander ordered Rolland to sound the retreat.

Instead he blew the charge. The little garrison dashed forward with so impet- nous and desperate a rush that the Arabs were once more routed and the situation saved Relead, tou. was rescued, though badly wounded.

In recognition of a brave exploit in the present war, a general conferred on a gallant French company, as al great honour, the title of The Bidi Brahim Compuny."

PLAN THAT WENT ASTRAY. INVASION OF FRANCE FROM BRITTANY.

Au articlo published in the Paris Midi shows how a German plan to invade and overrun France from the coast of Brit- any was defeated by the intervention of England. Some years ago the "Calarct

on the Ile Brehat re des Décapitées" ceived a strange visitor, an old professor. who came to the district ostensibly to pursue his studies of maritine biology; to which he devoted most of his life.

It was not long, however, before he began to buy up a number of fishermen's huts on the heights of the island over: locking the sea. Then he acquired an old mill which was for sale, and had it re- stored, after which he took up his abode there..

After, numerous visits of exploration in the neighbourhood he installed a wire less telegraphy apparatus in the old mill and made certain alterations. Then snd- denly, several days before the mobilisa tion, the oil professor disappeared; and no one has set him since.

The mill was sequestrated, and a search led to the discovery of papers and plays which unveiled the plan of German in- vasion. Had Great Britain not kept hor word and come to the help of Belgium and declared war against Germany, the entire German fleet would have effected a sudden attack on the French coast.

Not only did the German Press insult the Polish Club of Vienna, it was also One hundred and fifty transports, ac- not sparing in its bitter remarks on the companied by scout-ships, would have cleverness of the Austrian authorities convoyed two army corps from Bremen who had allowed this declaration to be and Hamburg to the I Brohat.

EVENING DRESS PROBLEM, TAILORMADES IN THE STALLS NOW THE FASHION.

[FROM THE "DALLY ORAPHIC."] The evening gown has been gradually disappearing from the fashionable pro ramme of dress for nearly a year, and on the eve of the debut of autumn onl winter modes it can be safely stated that this gown hardly finds a place in the new displays.

The Galician National Committee, which follows the same politics as the Polish Club, sent out an identical pro clamation inviting the "Independant- ists" of the kingdom to join in with the Galician movement. Disabused as to the possibilities of a revolution in Russian Poland, the Germans still relied on the Independantists," and wanted to take advantage of their mistrust with regard to the promises of the Grand Duke They fargot, however, that mistrust with regard to Russia does not necessarily mean faith Prussia and Germany.
