When there is a gro' l g family to care for and the mother falls ill it is a serious matter. Many mothers who. are on the go from morning to night,. whose work, apparently, is never done, try to disguise their suffering and keep up an appearance of cheer- fulness before their family, Only themselves know how they are dis- tressed by backaches and headaches, dragging down pains and nervous weakness; how their nights are often sleepless, and they arise to a new day's work tired, depressed and quite unrefreshed. Such women should know that their sufferings are usually due to lack of good nourishing blood. They should know that the one thing they need above all others to give them new health and strength is rich, red blood, and that among all medi- cines there is none can equal Dr. Wil- liams" Pink Pills for their blood -mak- ing, health -restoring qualities. Every suffering woman, every woman with a home and family to care for should give these pills a fair trial, for they will keep her in health and strength and make her work easy. Mrs. G. Strasser, Acton West, Ont., says: "I am the mother of three children, and after each birth I became terribly run down; I had weak, thin blood, always Pelt tired, and unable to do my house- hold work, After the birth of my third child I seemed to be worse, and was very badly run down. I was ad- vised to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I found the greatest benefit from the Pills and soon gained my old-time strength. Indeed, after taking them I felt as well as in my girlhood, and could take pleasure in my work. I also used Baby's Own Tablets for my little ones and have found them a splendid medicine for childhood ail- ments," You can get these pills through any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.511 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock- ville, Out, CHEERY WORDS AND WISE.

FEED CHILDREN On Properly Selected Food. It Pays Big Dividends. ' If parents will give just a little in- telligent thought to the feeding of their children the difference in the health of the little folks will pay, many times over, for the small trou- ble.. rou-ble.• A mother writes: "Our children are all so much better and stronger than they ever • were before we made a change in the character of the food. We have quit using potatoes three times a day with coffee and so much meat. "Now we give the little folks some fruit, either fresh, stewed, or canned, some Grape -Nuts with cream, occa- sionally some soft-boiled eggs, and some Postunl for breakfast and -sup- per. Then for dinner they have some ]neat and vegetables. "It would be hard to fully describe the change in the children, they have grown so sturdy and strong, and we attribute this change to the food ele- ments that, I understand, exist in Grape -Nuts and Postuni. "A short time ago :my baby was teething and had a great deal of sto- mach and bowel. trouble. Nothing seemed to agree with him until I tried Grape-Nutssoftened and mixed with rich milk and he improved rapidly and got sturdy and well." "There's a = Reason." Name given by Canadian Postem, Co., Windsor, Ont. :Ever read the above letter ? A now. one appears from time to time. They are genuine, true, and full of Human interest. MONK'S COLLARS POPULAR. In the fashion world it is just as futile to. ask "what will not the de- signers think of next?" as it is to ask what they will think of next. The "two queries are synonymous, in- asmuch as a designer's field is limit- less and his imagination infinite. One of the latest popular creations is the vx No. 9141.

No fewer than 683 fires, one million and a half dollars damage to property and the loss of thirty-eight lives oc- curred ccurred during the year 1914 as the direct result of children playing with i matches. Matches should, therefore, receive attention as a danger of primary im- portance. Keep the matches away from the children. Place them on al high shelf far out of their reach, for , they love to play with fire, and matches form an ideal toy from their point of view. • If it were only possible to convey in its horrid detail the account of the fires in Canada where thirty-eight children lost their lives, the excite- ment and nervous tension, the loss of property, the anguish of parents, the. pain of the little child, some measure of reform might soon be effected. Mothers should ever after guard their children against matches, as they would protect them against a terrible and menacing enemy. P.Q Forest Protection Methods. One of the most important features in connection with the control of for- est fires is their prompt discovery, 'thus rendering it possible in. most, cases to extinguish the fire in an in- cipient stage, at smallexpense and with slight damage. One of the re- cent developments in this work is the use of a hydro -aeroplane for the dis- covery of fires in the forest reserves of Northern Wisconsin. This is a lake region, and excellent results have been secured, one fire being accurate- ly located at a distance of thirty miles.

TAUG IT BY THE HI(K.ORY How Dr. Wyeth Learned to' Use His Left Rand. It is peculiarly fortunate for a swordsman, or a surgeon to be amble dextrous. Dr. John Allan Wyeth was not born to that good fortune, but he achieved it. How he did so, with the assistance of a long, lithe, extra tough hickory,. ---not applied in the manner that has rendered that useful tree so unpopular with boys,—he has related in his interesting autobio- graphy, recently published. When be was a boy of twelve, he. attended, school in a country school- house built on. the backbone of a high, wooded ridge that overlooked the village. At recess one slope of the ridge was the girls' playground, and the other the boys'; and boys and girls met and played together on the sum- mit. A favorite sport was for the boys to bend the tough young hickory saplings down to the ground and seat themselves and their sweethearts upon them for "ridey-horses." "I had a sweetheart," the doctor acknowledges, "and her name ' was Mugg,. Can you imagine in all the category of names one more sug- gestive of ugliness --I am almost tempted to say of 'muggliness?' But Mugg was only her nickname. It was, short for Margaret, and she was the prettiest girl in schoel--to me. "There stood in our grove a slen- der, graceful, tight -bark hickory sap- ling, toughest of all tough timber, which bends but never breaks, It towered fully thirty feet to its top- most bifurcation. There was no other like it, asthere was no other girl like Mugg. I made up my mind that I would bend it to the ground, and that she should have it; and to the top I climbed, twisted the terminal twigs round my hands and wrists, and swung boldly out into space to- ward the ground. I had struck the 'wrong hickory. "Instead ofswooping to the earth as 'I had anticipated, in a long, grace- ful curve, amid the plaudits of an ad- miring throng, with a glance at Mugg and her approving smile, I bent that obstinate sapling not more than three feet from the top, in fishhook shape; and there I dangled; helpless and hopeless, almost --as much so as if I had had a'noose about my neck and had been hanging from a gibbet. I could not clamber back, for the arc of the circle described by the bending tree top had a diameter beyond the swing of my wildly gyrating feet." His suggestion' that half a dozen boys climb up and add sufficient weight to bend . the tree low enough for safety was disregarded in the laughter at his absurd predicament. A rival called up to him.'to stay where he was—he looked better at a dis- tance; another amid a chorus of gig- gles suggested that if he would only drop, the ground would catch him. Before they realized that his plight was anything, more than fanny, his hold broke, and he did drop—slashing through the limbs and against them in such a way that when he reached the ground it was no longer feet fore- most.' His outstretched right hand saved his neck,y but his right wrist was broken. The fracture was ` mistaken for a sprain 'and was not set, and during the prolonged pain and weakness that ensued the boy took to using his left hand - and -arm. He became fairly ambidextrous;' and in after, years, ap- preciating the value of complete am- bidexterity in his profession, he work- ed almost wholly with his left hand while teaching and studying. anatomy. He was finally able, in performing an operation however delicate, to use whichever hand was more convenient or useful, without thinking whether it were right or left. ,1, Persian carpets were formerly dyed with .indigo, madder, or vine -leaves, and from these materials' shades were evolved that were impervious to the Girl '- (reading letter from her bre- which of ' sunlight.

Herr Anton Fendrieh, well known among German Socialists, describes in an article published in the Frank- furter Zeitung a conversation which he had with the Kaiser in the field. The main point revealed by Herr Fen- drich is the declaration that the Kai- ser is certain that France is doomed. The writer in this connection says: "Nobody will suppose that the opin- ions of the Kaiser agree in all points li with those of a man of the Left, but i in two cases there was perfect accord between -us. The first was when the conversation turned upon the French. Here the Kaiser's sorrow was my sorrow. The Kaiser speaks quite pure French and had hoped, like all of us, and especially us people from Baden, that with France first of all an agree- ment would be possible. We had grievously overestimated the Gallic nation as well as all other nations. The French are a people passing through their decadence. Their con- duct of war is full of the most griev- ous horrors, full of such terrible things that only a private book of the war will ever be able to record them, "For half an hour the Kaiser—with reluctance, but carried away by the horror of it all—narrated to me sworn facts about the behavior of French doctors, not only toward the enemy, but toward their own purpose. France is a doomed country. The tears which more than once came into the Kaiser's eyes as he told the tale were. often tears- of shame at such degradation in a people that had been thought to be still chivalrous and no- ble. "The second happy point of agree- ment between the Kaiser and me showed itself when we talked about the meaning of the war. The mean- ing and purpose is the unification and purification of Germany, so that she may fulfil her worldhistoric task of being the heart of Europe and of pre- paring the way for the spiritualiza- tion of European humanity. We are not 'ail good, but we have the will to be good, and those who are sincere are permitted by God to succeed. These were the main ideas about the meaning of the war. An inner fire illuminated the conversation and it Eves as if outside the garden fresh children's voices 'were singing, 'Oh, Germany, high in' honor, thou sacred land of loyalty!'

Be was driving a mine 102 yards long under the German position,. and had gat within a few yards of his ob- jective, when lie broke into a German mine crammed with high explosives. For a moment he thought his party were doomed, but he quickly cut the wiree leading to the German trenches, and sending back for help proceeded to carry away the enemy's explosives piecemeal. As the tunnel was very low, he and: his men lay head to feet and passed the stuff back from hand to hand. The task occupied twelve hours, there being one ton and a half of explo- sives. Na mishap occurred, but five of Lieut. Cooper's men were rendered unconscious by fumes, and four of them received the D.C.M. for their share in this remarkable feat.

Women have been employed in the bank of England in the humble note - sorting capacity since 1895, but they had never before done clerical work. They often put in as much as 12 hours a day.
