Mark Time.

There is a greater meaning .in ihose two words "Hark Time" than the unthinking public imagine. As a rule we associate the words only as a, military command.. The. detachment is on the march, the commandant does not wish a halt,' he wants to keep the men in motion, and so his order is "Mark Time." During that marking of time the officer in charge has an opportunity of consulting with his colleagues as to the next manoeuvre, and having settled upon it 'Quick march' follows. That is the military "Made Time" A man lushes to hisedesk anther morning, he rashes home at night, ho has a huaducho, Jjut he still goes on, becomes bilious, but does not ponder, constipated but on he goes, indigestion follows, yet he docs not stop, % complication of' disorders follows then he "Marks Time." He begins to think what he can do to bring; back, his health, and while marking time he recalls to his memory the fact that Bile Beaus for biliousness have cured his friend and' why should they not cure linn. He purchases a box of Bile Beans. .Nor. mal health and strength come gradually. He continues taking the Beans, and eventually perfect health is restored. Then Bile Beans call out to Mm 'Quick March* and on he goes to his business as if nothing had occurred.
