In sinking a shaft at a colliery near Doncaster, England, water was encountered. It was pumped out at the rate of 7,000 gallons a minute, but the supply seemed in- exhaustible, and the engineers were about to give up. But some Ger- man engineers came to the rescue. They bored holes around the shaft to a depth of 400 feet, lined these with steel tubes, and pumped down a freezing mixture, which soon turned the ground and the water into a great block of ice. Through this the boring was continued as through' rock ; then the shaft was lined with iron. plates. This done, warm water was pumped down the tubes to thaw out the ground gra- dually. The frost wall was so strong that it has required. three months to thaw. - "Eh. doctor," said a gillie of a small. Scotch town to a friend, "he maun has been an extraordinary man, that Shakespeare.

For varicose sores, bad leg, or chronic ulcers, Zam-Buk is without equal as a healer. A proof of this is just to hand from Montreal. Mrs. T. Edwards, of 164 Amherst St., writes : "Some time ago a bad sore broke out on my left leg near the ankle. For a week or two I did not heed it, but it got so bad that I could hardly walk, I sent for our doctor, and he told me that I would have to lay up with the wound. I did so for three weeks. At the end of that time the ulcer healed a lit- tle, but I could only move about by using crutches. "The sore then broke out badly, and the doctor told me that the only thing that would cure, it would be an operation, and that I should have to lay up for a year. "Mv son had cured a bad cut on his finger by using Zam-Buk, and he advised me to give this balm a trial. I did so, and in less than a week's time it stopped the pain, which has been so bad that many nights I did not get a wink of sleep. In a very short time the wound was so much better that I was able to move about and do my work. . I persevered with Zam-Buk, with the result that the wound is now per- fectly cured, and the limb is as sound and strong as ever." Zam-Buk is just as good for piles, abscesses, boils, scalp sores, blood poison, festering wounds, cuts, burns, scalds, eczema, 'eruptions, and all skin injuries and diseased.

The way to heal them, as Mr. Richard Wilson, who lives near, London, Ont., found, is to purify the blood. He writes: "For some time I had been in a low, depressed condition. My appetite left me and I soon began to suffer from indi- gestion. Quite a number of small sores and blotches formed all over my skin. I tried medicine for the blood and used many .kinds of ointments, but without _satisfactory results. What was wanted was a thorough cleansing of the blood, and I looked about in vain for some medi- cine edi- c ne that would accomplish this: At last Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills were brought to my notice, and. they are one of the most wonderful medicines• 'I have 'ever known.
