BABY’S OWN TABLETS
Once a mother has used Baby’s Own
Tablets for her little ones she will use
nothing else. Experience teaches her
that the Tablets are the very best
medicine she can give her baby. They
are a gentle laxative; mild but thor
ough in action and never fail to banish
constipation, colic, cclds or any other
of the many minor ailments of child
hood. Concerning them Mrs. J. Bte.
Charest, St. Leon, Que., writes:—“My
baby cried continually and nothing
seemed to help her till I began using
Baby’s Own Tablets. These Tablets
soon set her right and now I would not
be without them.” The Tablets are
sold by medicine dealers or by mail at
25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams’
Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

Something like twenty-four million
(24.000,000) pounds of wool was grown
in Canada last year. This quantity is
sufficient to provide for something like
eight million (8,000,000) suits of
clothes, which would sell for in the
neighborhood of Four hundred Million
Dollars ($40’0,000,000). If the various
processes of manufacture were com
pleted in Canada this large sum would
be set circulating in Canada through
thousands of people employed in the
combing and spinning of the wool, the
weaving of the cloth and the tailoring
and selling of the finished product.
The establishment in Canada of a

HEALTH EDUCATION
BY DR. J. J. MIDDLETON
Provincial Board of Health, Ontario
Dr. Middleton will be glad to answer questions on Public Health :ir>
tcrs through this column. Address him at the Parliament Bldgs,
Toronto.
In an address at the Canadian Na
tional Exhibition this year, Hon. Dr.
Cody, cf St. Paul’s Church, Toronto,
stated that education was the most
important undertaking cf a govern
ment to-day. This is admitted, but
Dr. Cody might have gone further and
stated that of all branches of educa
tion, that of Public Health was in the
forefront in point of importance. If
the education of the child in its early'
years is directed along the lines of-
health habits it will prepare it bothu
in strength of body and of mind to
receive a general education in reading,
writing and arithmetic and all the
higher education to follow. Of course-
there are exceptional cases where i
children of poor physique have turned I
out to be exceptionally brilliant'
students, but tnis to some extent is,
due to over-development of the mind!
in spite of weakness of the body. 1
It behooves all educational
health authorities, therefore, to
gard public health education as
of the fundamental necessities in
teaching of the young. Observations
have shown, for instance, that the
child who goes to- bed early, v,ho
sleeps in a well-ventilated room and
rises early, who cleans his teeth daily
and drinks cold water between meals,
who eats plain, substantial foods,
drinks milk and avoids tea, coffee,
pastry, candy, pies, etc., and who
spends definite times each day in out
door play and exercise, who bathes
regularly and attends to his personal
hygiene is in a far better state of
mind and body for study than the lack- ___~ VLiy

knows or cares nothing about health
habits.
To diffuse this very necessary
health education, all sorts of attrac
tive measures will have to be adopted,
some of which are already in use.
These include health talks by doctors,
moving picture shows, and practical
demonstrations and clinics by Public
Health and School nurses.
“W. G.,” of Asquith, Saskatchewan.,
complains about shortness of breath
and dizzy spells, with sometimes a
feeling as if he -were going to col
lapse. These conditions may arise
from several causes, of which the fol
lowing are the most important:
(a) Heart disease.
(b) Artero-sclerosis or hardening
of the arteries with increased blood
pressure resulting.
(c) Kidney disease.
Just which of these, or what com
bination of these is causing the
trouble can only be diagnosed by a
physician who has examined the pa
tient thoroughly. It would be impos
sible for me, therefore, to try to tell
what the origin of the trouble is, and
I would recommend that “W. G.” put
himself immediately under a physi
cian’s care.
“W. J.,” writing from Woodstock,
says:—I unfortunately acquired syph

Answer: A patient with syphilis

after treatment has been commenced
and then only after a thorough ex
amination and blood test has been
made by a competent physician, and

When a doctor tells you that you
are anaemic, he simply means, in-plain
English, that your blood is weak and
watery. But this condition is one that
may easily pa.ss into a
cline if prompt steps are
enrich the blood. Poor
watery blood is the cause
and backaches, loss of appetite, poor
digestion, rheumatism, neuralgia, ner
vous irritability and many other
troubles. To poor blood is due the
pimples and blotches, the muddy com
plexion that disfigures so many faces.
To have good health, a good complex
ion and a cheerful manner, the blood
must be kept rich, red and pure. This
is easily done through the use of a
blood enriching tonic like Dr. Wil
liams’ Pink Pills. The whole mission
of this medicine is to help enrich the
blood which reaches every nerve and
every organ in the body, bringing with
it health, strength and new activity.
That is wThy people who occasionally
use Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills always
feel bright, active and strong.
Mrs. E. E. Cook, Simcoe, Ont., gives
strong testimony to the value of Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills when the blood
is in an anaemic condition. She says:
“I have been a sufferer for some years
from a run down condition of the
tem. I suffered from pains in
back, twitching of the nerves
muscles, my appetite was poor, I
indigestion and would get drowsy
after eating. My hands and feet were
almost always cold, and though I was
constantly doctoring, the medicine I
took did not help me. I had practical
ly given up hope of good health, until
a friend from Hamilton came to visit
me, and urged me to try Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills. It took some persuasion,
but finally I consented to try them.
I have reason to be grateful that I
did, for after using seven boxes I felt
like a new person. I have gained in
weight, have a better color and my
work is now a pleasure. For this con
dition my thanks are due to Dr. Wil
liams’ Pink Pills, and I cannot praise
them too highly.”
You can get Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills
through any dealer in medicine, or by
mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes
for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams’ Medi
cine Co., Brockville, Ont.
The New Chief Scout.
His Excellency, Baron Byng of Vimy,
Governor-General and Chief Scout for
Canada, presided at a recent meeting
of the Dominion Council of the Boy
Scouts Association. A resolution was
adopted expressing gratification at
His Excellency’s acceptance of the
highest office in the gift of the Scout
movement in Canada.
In reply to the resolution, His Ex
cellency expressed the satisfaction and
pleasure he felt at becoming head of
so worthy and important an organi
zation. He believed whole-heartedly
in the worth of the Boy Scout Move
ment and its benefits to the entire
country. Very amusingly and with
not a little pride, His Excellency told
of how’, before the war, he became so
thoroughly interested in Scouting that
he had studied and gone right through
every grade, finally winning the Silver
Wolf, which is the highest decoration
in the Scout movement. He recalled
the occasion when he had formed
twenty-eight troops in the country in
which he lived. He had also started
one of the first, if not the first, scout
masters’ training course. In conclu
sion, he said he accounted it a plea
sure, while in Canada, to do every
thing he could to help the movement.
Very stimulating reports were heard
in connection with the progress
throughout the provinces, the province
of British Columbia receiving special
mention. His Grace Archbishop Mc
Neil, of Toronto, was appointed to the
Canadian General Council, and Right
Rev. Bishop Fallon, of London, was
made a member of the Dominion
Executive Committee. Plans were dis
cussed for the publication of further
Scouting w’orks, and the extension of
the stores department for supplies of
uniforms, the object being to have one
standard uniform for
Canada.* * ♦
The Boy Scouts of
Ont., have proved conclusively to the
local Rotarians in that vicinity the
splendid worth of Scouting to the com
munity and also the value of sym
pathetic interest on the part of the
Rotary Club. At a recent demonstra
