You have only to ask your neigh - bora, and they can tell you of some rheumatic or nerve -shattered man, some suffering ,. woman, ailing '-youth or anaemic girl who owes present 'health. and'strength to Dr. Williams; Pink Pills: For •More than a quarter ce of .a •ntury these pills have -been known not only in Canada, but throughout all the world,; as a reliable tonic,` blood -making medicine. The wonderful success of Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills is due to the fact., that they go. right to'the root of the disease' in the .blood, and by making the vital fluid rich and red strengthen every organ and every nerve, thus driving out disease and pain, and mak- ng weak, despondent people bright, active 'and ..strongr ''h'ir.�-W:.''r.

Next, and some think most im portant, comes killing and skinning. The best way to kill a skunk is. to shoot him in the centre of the back of the neck with a .22 -calibre rifle, using a short cartridge. .1f you have no gun, break his back with a long pole, which will have the same effect. Lots of people, especially boys, who skin a skunk advertise the' fact fol days afterward.

'Tourists in France spend on i an average of $500 a year,. according to M. Dorang. The amounts vary, he 'said, from tens of thousands of dollars 'pent by Comparatively new million- aires to two or three hunched, spent by school teachers and others in search of some finishing touches to their edrication. The 300,000 tourists, at the average named . by 'M. Dorang, would spend $1:0,000,000, enough to pay, if' not for a full battle, at least for a sizable skirl'::,.'. The battle -seared territory, M. Do - rang explained, would not be in de- mand for agricultural or industrial uses for some years, because the valve of the land is but 400 francs' an acre, while it Is estimated that, under pre- sent conditions, the cost of restoring the property would be 4,000 francs an acre. The Ministry of P "Tublic Works, which hes the •'preservation of the battle- fields under its jurisdiction, M. Dorang said, has arranged • to preserve the 'pillboxes," or concrete machine gun nests, the tangles. of barbed wit, and the underground trench systems; just as theyware during the fighting.
