WEAK, TIRED GIRLS Will Find Health and Strength Through Dr. Millais' Pink Pills, There is a time in the life of every girl when the strain upon her blood becomes too great; when she grows weak; has headaches and baokaohea; when dizziness seizes her and she be- comes extremely miserable. That is the time of life she needs a tonic -a medioine that will not fail to enrioh her blood and give her stength to withstand the ohangea through which she is passing. Snob a tonin is Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills for Pale People. They have raised thousands of gro • g girls oat of the depths of misery a' i despair to a full enjoyment of good , ealth and stregth. Among those wh. • ave found good health through thes; pills is Miss Suddard of Haldi., i nd Qne., concern- ing whose case he •• other writes as follows: -"Dr. Wi ams' Pink Pills have been a great benefit to my daugh- ter who was weak and miserable. She was pale, easily tired and was bothered with indigestion. The use of the Pills has brought back her health, and made her strong and active. I am very grate- ful for what this wonderful medicine has done for her." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are the greatest blood builder known to medi- cal science. That is why they ours anaemia, rheumatism, heart palpitation, indigestion, neuralgia, etc. That is why they are of such value to women and girls during the changes through which they pass from girlhood to maturity. The pills are sold by all medicine dealers or direct by mail at 50 Dents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brook- ville, Ont. love btoclr 2aarkets, Toronto, June 22 -City Cattle Mar• k.et-The market oontinnes steady to Arm for cattle of good quality, but is undoubtedly easier for poor quality, It was only a moderate run to -day, with a total of 68 cars of stook of all kinds. To -day's offerings included throe oar loads of extra choice quality exporters, weighing 1,300 lbs. and over, fed by 3. B. Shields, of Meant Albert. This fine herd of Canadian cattle sold at $0,55, and was bought by the Harris Abattoir Co. Another load of ohoioe bntoher cattle, 1,150 lbs„ sold at $5.85, the top price for butchers in to day's market. These examples are a pretty good indi- cation that prices for choice quality cattle are not off. There is, however, a poorer class of oattle now oomiag in which do not command as good prices as a week or eo ago. This applies to poor butcher cows, and to light common stockers. Good butcher cows and good stockers are no easier. There is a steady market for good ex- port cattle. Old Country prices are firm, and there is ample space for ex. port. At the same time local prices for export cattle are said by the shippers to be too high for profitable business. The following are the quotations: Exporters' cattle- Per 100 lbs.
