THE BLOOD is the LIFE of the FLESH

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

It is an established fact that all diseases spring from one source, namely: Impurity of When the Blood. Therefore our strength, health, and life depend upon the vital fluid 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 discased, 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 the various passages of the body free and open, and if assistance is necessary to have keep 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.

One of the roots from which these Fills "are" made is a SUDORIFIC, which opens the 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 performis 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 becoms 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.

D. MOWARS. INDIAY BOT PILLS are an efficient, reliable, and safe remedy placed on the market at a price within the reach of all. The Pilla icing sugar-coated, are pleasant to take, and putain their full medicinal properties. They are packed in. amber-coloured bottles-not in cheap wooden or pasteboard boxes--and are thus always fresh and clean, impervinis tu inoisture, unaffected by climatic conditions, and do not deteriorate by keeping us all liquid medicines do

JUMPING FROM AN AIRPLANE-

PRACTISING PARACHUTE,

DEVICES.

There is one soldier, who is not out of an exciting job by reason of the closing of the "wur. He is Marine Gunner John McCoy, who ence or twice a day drops out of an air plate by way of try

In the ing uc parachute devices. Marines Bulletin Ganner McCoy tells how he does the jumping". He says:

The idea of jumping out of an siy plane eruplane isn't one of amuses ment, it is one of utmost necessity. The make-up an airplane engine is such that when an aviator is working at an extreme altitude and starts to glide downwards, there is grave danger of fre During the glide the carburretor is almost Faure to dood, with the result that when the aviator turns air the power again the consequent ring of the cylinders often causes a back-5re which gives serious danger of enveloping the whole plane in Rames. In a case like that an aviator's paly chance is to jump. For that reason, efforts have been many to evolve a system whereby a parachute-can-be-at.. tached in such a way that an aviator can jump swiftly to safety no matter how his airplane may be travelling.

I'm only a jumper, and, to tell the truth, I have to give thanks for the fact that they found for me a new thrillin aviation. When a man takes a hop every day or so, spends much of his time in the air, a lot of the zest of it departs. One gets the feeling of a taxidriver on deserted street. There isn't though difficulty in driving to interest him. But making a jump is a parachute from a seaplane going a hundred miles an hour well, that's something else again, ‘as they say in the Marine Corps.

a

The system is yet so new that we haven't taken the trouble to bave regular harness for the parachute jumpers made. We make 'em ourselves by tying ropes in such a way that when the jump is made, the knotted ropes, which pass around both thighs and about the waist, form a "cradic

To make the jump at all, and to learn the best means of making that jump,

in the safest way, it was, of course, neces sary to make it first in a crade manner. The thing to be established was the fact that it was possible to jump out of en seroplane with a parachute. We talked it all over and decided that the best way to arrange the thing would be to wad up the parachute in a container which would be fastened just beneath the fuselage of the seaplane. From this would ren a! rope which would be attached by a snap- book to the harness of the jumper. It would be necessary to climb about three thousand feet, so that the jumper would be reasonably sure of the parachute open- ing before the ground got too close.

The way to jump ont of a seaplane! It's really simple when you know. You just let go. After that there's nothing to stop you but the ground. The thing, of course, was that when I made my first- jump I knew nothing about it. That added a few thrilla.

With Captain Page at the wheel, we climbed to about three thousand feet. The air was a little bumpy, and there was a strong wind blowing, which made the hundred-mile-an-Eaur speed of the seaplane seen just that much faster. Gradually the captain steadied the plane, and-then-be-gave a jerk at the wheel, which was the signal to me that I wai about to take a trip to earth, swift or slow, depending on whether or not the parachute opened.

"If I remember correctly, there was a queer feeling along any backbone when I locked my

safety belt and began to crawl out of that seat. When I got one foot over the side, the wind hit me full and nearly blew me from the plane be- fore I could get a chance to steady my self. However, I made a wind grab and caught on to the safety strap just in time, and from then on it was compara Lively easy.

Slowly I managed to get the other, foot out of the cockpit, and bending as close to the fuselage as possible. I held on, as I made my way along the wing of the plane to the rear. This caused the machine to rock a bit, but Captain Page soon had it steadied again, and slowly I began letting myself down,

The wind helped me bere. We were going so fast that the breeze seemed to bold me up, especially as I was leaning against one of the brace wires which held the planc, which kept me steady. "How ever, as soon as I was clear.of this, the problem of holding on until the psy chological second was a troublous onc. The wing of the plane was smooth, and one doesn't like to pat too much strain on the wires which connect the two, wings, lest that strain should snap the zupport! and thereby cause trouble for the pilot.

Gradually, however, the descent to a kneeling position was accomplished. I let one leg hang below the wing of the plane. Then, supporting myself on my abdomen, I let down the other leg. The wind caught my feet and trailed my legs. out behind the swiftly moving plane like strings of ribbon. I looked up to see the captais nodding and smiling at me. It was the signal that the plane was ten- died for the pull that would be given when the parachute jerked loose. So, with a lot of a push I cleared myself. from the plane and dropped.,

A dizzy, blurred second, and. then something hit me like a punch in the jaw. It was the parachute opening alter a drop of about a hundred feet, and I know that I was safe. From now on nothing but an extremely bad air pocket could cause me trouble by collapsing the parachute on me, and that, of course, is chance that must always be taken...

However, nothing of that kind o curred and I landed safety. The next day I went up again and made the jump, Fand the next day after that. In fact, I rade a jump varying from three thou and to four, thousand feet nearly every day and liked it. It gives a new thrill to aviation.

And, thoro is always, of course, the feeling that in making these jumps you are helping perfect the system whereby an aviator will be safe from fire in his plane-and that counts for a great deal
