It is useless to tell a hard working woman to take life easily and not to worry. But it is the duty of every woman to save her strength as mnoli as possible; to take her cares as light- ly as may be and to build up her sys• tem to meet any unusual demands. It is her duty to her herself and to her family, for her future health depends upon it. To guard against a complete break- down in health the blood must be kept rich and red and pure, No other medi- cine does this so well as Dr, Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. This medi- cine actually makes new, red blood, strengthens the nerves, restores the ap- petite and keeps every organ healthily toned up, Women cannot always rest when they should, but they can keep their strength and keep disease away by the occasional use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, whioh have done more to lighten the oares of weak women than any other medicine. Mrs. James H. Ward, of Lor N. B., says:—"About two I suffered so much from ne dation that I was little helpless wreck. I suffere aohee and a constant feel' The least unusual mo me and set my la:. rt ly.' I had little o n so weak that I w myself about, a could not do my housework. In every way I was in a deplorable condition. As the medicine I had been taking seemed to do me no good, my husband got a supply of Dr. Williams' Pink Pille. I had only been taking the Pille for a oouple of weeks when I seemed to feel somewhat better and this encouraged me to continue the treatment. From that on my strength gradually bnt surely returned, and in the course of a few more weeks I was once more a well woman, able to do my own housework, and feeling better than I had done for years, I have since re- mained well and I feel that I owe my good health to the healing power of Dr. Williams's Pink Pills." Every other weak, sickly, worn out woman should follow the example of Mrs. Ward and give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial. These Pills will send new blood coursing through the veins and bring brightness and energy to the weak and despondent.

Toronto, Feb. 8.—Union Stook Yards —The faot that the run was not heavy one at this market to -day materially helped to sustain prime at about last week's levels, although trade was de- cidedly slow and draggy. Under snoh conditions, with a bigger run of cattle offering, prioee would have inevitably suffered. The drovers have undoubted- ly been paying good prices in the country, and stood out to -day for high prices in the market. The rather slow demand was against them, but on the whole the market was sound, and quotations show little or no changes from last week. The following are the quotations: Exporters' cattle— Per 100 lbs. Choice $6 00 $5 40 Medium 4 40 4 85 Bulls Light Cows Feeders— best 1000 pounds and up- wards 4 25 4 50 Stockers ohoice 2 75 3 ,00 " bulls - . 1 50 ; 2 00 3 75 4 50 3 00 3 25 3 40 3 75 The Council met at Belgrave, Feb. 8, pnrsnant;;to adjournment; members all prevent.

"I purchased a bottle of Scott's Emulsion and im- mediately commenced to improve. In all, I think I took 14 bottles, and my weight increased from 133 pounds to 184 pounds in less than six months. I know from personal results the efficacy of Scott's Emulsion."—FRED. R. ° STRONGMAN,, 417 Bath- urst St, London, Ont. Let us send you a copy of Mr. Strongman's letter. He had a trying experience, had got run down Scott's Emulsion built him up, as it has thous- ands of others. The strengthening and flesh - producing properties of SCOTT'S EMULSION; are un- equalled by any other prepa- ration, and it's just as good for the thin, delicate child as for the adult. Be sure to get Scorr's. It's been the stand- ard of the world for 35 years, and is worth many times the cost of the nurlierous imita- tions and substitutes.
