| Optimistic Factor in Devefopment of National Life Says Oxford | Professor

Prof. Scoothill, professor of Chin- ese at Oxford, says: “It is the Chin- }ese woman who is the brightest spot jon the landscape, the most promising | spot in the national life. Twenty |years ago almost the only girls with |any education and with natural feet | were the product of certain mission

chools. Then nearly half the popu | lation of the country, some 200 }millions of women and girls, had

crippled feet. The effect on carriage, happiness and character is only made |} evident now that a new race, abso- lutely a new race of women, is being volved, If a sign can be sought of | progress in China, perhaps the most felicitous is the signboard on the | Woman’s boot store. Twenty years }ago it dig noa exist, but now it is found in every city. Then every woman made her “three-Inch golden lilies” to cover what remained of her maimed feet. Today the boot store supplies her with beautifully made shoes to wear over her flesh-colored silk stockings.”

“Has putting in that lunch counter helped your business?” asked Jones of the druggist.

“Well it has about tripled the sale of indigestion tablets,” he replied.

Bell Grove, N. B.—I became very weak and could not do my work. My nerves were very bad—in fact, I did not care if I lived or not. I also suffered with indigestion. I was getting pretty badly discouraged when a friend advised me ta use Dr, Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and I am very glad fo say it helped ma right from the start. Now I am feeling like a new person. I will always recom- mend Dr. Pierce's medicine after this.
