EAT AS AN AIR MENACE. A PERSISTANT '‘ STOWAWAY, A letter from Lcllii describes a I startling new danger to long-distance j travel by aeroplane, none other than j stowaway rat. One of these vermin boarded the military aeroplane which flew from Egypt to India. It ; is supposed to have got on to the machine at hobar (Arabia), probably attracted by the food supplies.' Soon after loving tnc • Ipl acc it w r asheaxd by the occupants of the aeroplane to bo gnawing at something. At Karachi, the next stopping place, the guard protecting the aeroplane heard it still nibbling. The rat could not be- located or caught, how’evqr. After leaving Karachi its activities [ w J ont on. and as ift feared it might bo gnawdng some important part of the aeroplane, it was decided to see if cold would have any effect on its energies. The machine was accordingly taken to over 10,000 foot. This was too much, for a rat nurtured in the balmy warmth of the Persian Gulf, and, frozen and numbed with cold, it j apparently could hold on no long', i and dropped off into space. DON’T NEGLECT. A COMMON CASE OF PILES IT MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS RESULTS. When people generally understand that all such fatal diseases as Fistula, Ulcer of the Rectum, Fissure, etc., almost invariably begin in a simple case of piles they will learn the wisdom of taking prompt treatment for the, first appearance of this trouble Doan s Ointment is unequalled for every form of Piles—ltching, Bleeding, Protruding and Blind Piles and hundreds of lives have been saved by using this cheap, but effective, remedy right | at the start because at such times a single pot has often effected a cure, i while in the old, deep-seated, chronic cases several pots are sometimes necessary. Here is a case: — Mrs. S. J. Foster, 33 Warwick Street Feildlng. says:—“My advice to all who suffer from Piles is to use Doan’s • Ointment at once, and I am sure they will derive great benefit by doing so. i I have proved it to bo a splendid ref medy. A member of my family suflerl. ed agony from itching and protruding i piles the pain and irritation being at e I times almost ’unbearable, this being t 1 especially the case at night or in the warm weather. Wc tried all sorts o*. remedies, but none of them seemed to a do any good. One, day I was fortunate i- enough to hear Doan's Ointment be--0 irig a sure cure for Piles, so we sent for a pot, and commenced using it at i, once. It was marvellous how quickly s the irritation was relieved by this >• Ointment, and before two pots were a used a perfect cure was effected. Four 0 years have 'elapsed Since and during that time there has been no a return of Piles, so I regard the cure 8 permanent. J ’ , e Six years later, Mrs. Foster says; “The cure referred to has proved a permanent one; I,need say no more, I 1 the facts speak for themselves.” • Six years later, Mr. Jessop says. I 5 have had no return of backache and • kidney trouble since Doan’s Pills cur- : ed me six years ago.” „ , . r-vrv a M’a
