They have barely sufficient energy to enable them to perform their manifold duties. Often they have an aching head, a miserable pain in the back, and limbs that feel as lmavy as lead. The whole troublo is due to bloodlestmess. No woman need suffer in this way. It is easy to ob tain a supply of rich red blood by tak ing Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, The new blood created by these pills rapidly builds ui> the system; headaches and I backaches disappear, energy returns and am having «»d tho joy of living is felt once more, a -glass cylinder i Proof of these statements is given in diameter in hy Mrs. Ed. Lanoro, Stoney Point, —'"For a I mg time I N.-v, ' OihMjiW iliam Bebo, who beams ««f having caught the smallest tarpon in hutory, told in New Orleans of hi'- plans to go down one mile into the depths of the oeqan. This is ten times fanlmr tftan any man has gono before. “I have designed made,” he said, " tweb.ty-ono inches Which I propose to go down one mile1 Ont., who says: in the ocean, to watch the life of the h^d been in a very miserable condl- depths of the sea. > . “Tho walls of this cylinder will be an(l weak. seven inches thick, glass and celluloid in layers, t.o that it will give. I am told that it will be simple to make, It will stand a pressure of five tons to the square inch which is found at depth of five miles in thte sea. I will test it at a depth of one mile. “Nothing short of a trip to Mars, if that, could be more wonderful than such a trip to the depths of the oeqan. There I will be able to see the liglrt>- of the tiny creatures which boast hundreds of less than pin-point lights on their bodies so as to find their way through the almost infinite darkness.” To Mr. Beebe, this plan is “ordin ary.” So “ordinary” is it that he al ready has sat and rocked on the coral reefs, sixty feet below the ocean level, and watched the sharks play about him. Calls Sharks Harmless. “Sharks,’ he said, “are quite harm-. less.” Fifty years old is Mr. Beebe. Tall and thin, the linek under his eyes, the wrinkles which curl when he laughs and the lack' of hair on top of his hq/id are the only indications of his age. Ho loves to dance, on his own admis sion. “I’m no sportsman,” he said smil ingly. “Not an ounce' of sporting blood in me.” And to prove it he told the story of the smallest tarpon ever .caught while other men are content to boast the largest. “In a landlocked, sulphurous, green- topped salt pool in Haiti,” he said, “I discovered the second nursery of the tarpon ever seen. The baby tarpon swim in while the opening to the sea is there. Then the water becomes shallow. In less than a foot of this stagnant, sulphurous watei* the little tarpon grow, getting the strength that so much attracts the sportsman. When the opening to the sea is made again, they swim out, full grown.” The smallest tarpon ever caught measured two Inches in length, Mr. Beebe said. “He looked for all the world like the grown-ups,” he said. But as the sportsmen aro never sat isfied with their largest, so Mr. Beebe isn’t' satisfied with his smallest. Is An Evolutionist. “It is believed that they pass through that strange stage like the eel, in which they are almost trans parent,” said Mr. Beebe. "I want to I ' get one smaller, so that I 'can see.” . | Mr. Beebe has a hobby. It is the i doctrine which cannot be taught in ' Tennessee. And his main object in life, outside of enjoying the strange sights of the ocean bottom, is getting evidence to support the various con- j tentions of the evolutionists. His quest led him first to birds. But they were too intricate, he found, af ter he studied them the world over and had written books about them. So were the highei* order of animals which were installed in the zoo which he built college, est form More Beebe dence. Ho has travelled through jun gle. ' He has sailed foi- months over seemingly bottomless ocean. But probably the most exciting thing h'e has done, from the'layman’s view point at least, is to sit sixty feet be low the ocean surface, watching the shark at play, having fish as curious about him as he was about them. Helmet Only Paraphernalia, "I did this in a bathing suit and an ordinary helmet,” he said. "It was a helmet which I found in Miami, where they had used it for years to repair propellers. "All I had to do was walk out until tho water was up to my'neck, towing after me a rowboat in which sat a man with an automobile pump to give mo air. Then I put oh jthe helmet and kept on walking out. -When I got to a coral reef I sinlply sat down and Swayed with the Water so as not to disturb the fish and watched them.” Tho interviewer suggested that por- , haps Mr. Beebe took ,a book along to read while he sat there. "No,” ho said, “but I did write books down there. I wrote with a lead pencil on zinc plates, noting the things which I saw.” ' » Sometimes tho cotal was like cut glass and ripped through the solos of hir light tennis shoes. “I simply dropped a weight and I was lighter under the. water than any Grecian dancer you ever saw,” he said.

The least work about the i house would leave me helplessly tired’ and nothing that I did seemed to give relief. Believing that a rest might do me good, we moved to town, but, con trary to expectations, instead of get ting better I was growing steadily weaker. One day while talking'to a neighbor, she urged myvtaking Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, telling me that her daughter had been in a condition much like mine. .This persuaded me to try this medicine, and I have much reason to be grateful that I followed her advice. After the use of a few boxes of the pills, there could be no doubt that they were’helping me, and ?s I continued their use my health and setrength came back and now I am doing all my own work and feeling in the best of health, For this splen did condition I must give my thanks to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.” The pills are sold by all druggists, or you can get them by mail at 50c a box from The Dr. Williams’ Medi cine Co., Brookville, Ont. “You’ve just come over from land?” said a London lady to her cook. “Were you trained across water?” “Bliss ye, ma’am, sure could not be trained across _ Water,” replied the girl, "I just came over in a ship, Ire- new the you the . ..FOXES Air ASK AW BEUES AMD SILVERS— Choice stock ranched with 100 per cent, animal increase for 1927.

Crop Records Made and Broken The grain crop for the past year was remarkable in. many respects, practically every province equalled or exceeded the harvest of previous sea sons, except for the year 1923 which the highest grain record of all time. Due to the lateness of the season combined with the large volume of the crop, new records were established by the Canadian Pacific Railway in handling, trans portation and shipping. Though called upon to transport a crop of more than the average capacity, the company did so with greater efficiency than ever. Alberta created a new record for total yield over its full acreage and indiyidual productions. The province of Ontario was responsible for 21,963,- 000 bushels of wheat out of the Dominions full yield of 444,282,000 bushels. There has recently been constructed at Port McNicoli and Midland, elevators with a capacity of two million bushels which greatly facilitated grain hand ling on the great lakes and has also doubled the Canadian Pacific Railway’s storage capacity on Georgian Bay.

NO BETTER MEDICINE FOR UTTLE ONES No Chance To Fool Boss Is What Thousands of Mothers Say of Baby’s Own Tablets. A medicine for the baby or growing child—one that the mother can feel assured is absoolutely safe as well as ( efficient—is found in Baby’s Own Tab-: alibi of lets. The Tablets" are praised by thousands of mothers throughout the country. These mothers have found by actual experience that there is no other medicine for little ones to equal them. Once a mother has used them for her children she will use nothing else. Concerning them Mrs. Charles Hutt, Tancock Island, N.S., writes: ‘I have ten children, the baby being just six months old. I have used Baby’s Own Tablets for them for the past 20 years and can truthfully say that I know of no better medicine for little ones. I always keep a box of the Tablets in the house and would advise all other mothers to do so.” Baby’s Own Tablets are sold by all medicine dealers or will be mailed upon receipt of price, 25 cents pet box, by the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

And And Are Can we close our eyes to duty? Can we fold our hands at ease, While the gates of night stand open to the pathways of the seas? Can we shut up our compassions? Can we leave one prayer unsaid, the lands which Hell has blasted have been quickened dead?
