It is little wonder that there are teeey times in aewoman's life when She h, feels ' ttr despair, There is no nine -hour day for the busy housewife. There are a hundred thing about the home to keep her busy from the time she arises until it is again bed time. what is the result? Often her nerves give way, her good looks suffer, her blood becomes thin, her digestion is disturbed and her system threatened with a complete breakdown. Every woman should do all possible to pro- tect her health and good looks, and there is one way in which she can do this, and that is by taking D'r. Wil- liams' Pink Pills. These actually make new, rich blood, strengthen every nerve and every organ, bring the glow of health to the cheeks and brightness to the eye. These pills have done more to make the lives of thousands of women sunshiny than anything else in the world. Mrs. Daniel Theal, Waterloo, Ont., says. "I was very much run down, my blood was thin and watery and I would faint at the least excitement. I suf- fered from headaches and dizziness, and often it seemed as though there were clouds before my eyes, Finally I was forced to go to bed with weak, rem. I doctored for six Weeks while in bed without receiving any benefit. Finally I was induced to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and when I had taken ten boxes I was completely. aired, and never felt better in my life,. I am convinced that what Dr. Wile slams' Pink Pills did for me they will do for others, and I warmly recom- mend them to all weal: women." You can get these Pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2,50, from The 1)r.

Formidable List of United States Railroads in Receiver's Hands Arming U.S. railroads the interven- tion of the receiver has been so fre- quent, and has concerned so many im- portant ,systems, that this official rsi - no longer considered an omen of ap.' proaching dissolution, but rather, in cases, the promise of economical ad- ministration, Figures issued by the Bureau of Railway News and Statis- tics, Chicago, show that there -were twenty-eight railway companies of more or less importance in the hands of receivers, at the close of the calen- dar year 1914, in addition to nearly forty minor roads. The combined length of these larger railways oper- ated by receivers amounted to 19,449. miles, with a total capitalization of no less than $1,376,678,913. They include the St. Louis and San Francisco Rail- road, with excellent services in the southwest; the Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad, with one of the best services between Chicago and St. Louis; the Wabash, with its strong geographical position, providing short line mileage between many important cities in the Middle West; the Pere Marquette, serving thickly populated districts in Michigan; and the Toledo, St. Louis and Western Railroad, known as the Clover Leaf Route, tra- versing the progressive states of In-' diana and Illinois.

That the problem of marking the graves of soldiers who have fallen on the battle front is a difficult one is. shown by an announcement made from the office of the British Secre- tar of War rand published recently in the London newspapers. The an- nouncement says no special crosses can be received for transit, and ex- plains that known graves are marked by small wooden crosses treated with creosote to make them waterproof, Most of the graves, explains the an- nouncement, are within the range of the enemy's shell fire. So much is this true that most of the al crosses •e destroyed frequently and have to be replaced from a carefully kept regis- ter of the burial places as soon as the graves can be reached. Under those conditions the War Office says it would be impossible to set up any- thing like permanent markers until: conditions are more settled. r w $2s,ub.0,50J Now You ala11 r h1011, Away Your Glasses 1,500,000 74,507,009 Ua dl • P ibl SAKES TliEyWHITESTtLIGIJP f 44. ��� „�•::. � ltd tt t� TETT ��E�PAtaa 1 ►Su,N1 ORONTO,O QR'TR`�.

Arthur Pearson, chairman of the British Blinded Soldiers' and Sailors' Care •Committee. Ile says: "Diving is, I think, a quite 'new occupation for blind people. The diver who is building breakwaters and • piers works in the dark, for even if the water is clear his work disturbs it and renders it impossible for him to see anything through. it. The diver is one of the best paid of workmen. lie has an attendant to look after him while below and when he returns to the surface, and the occupation is" one. ,,which I think . will prove to be ex.. tr+:insly suitable for intelligent blind- - soldiers . and sailors who have had some i'nechanical training.'
