The one source of most of the leis- cry that affects men and women and growing children, is poverty of the blood. If you consult a doctor he says you are anaemic, which really means bloodless. Thatis what makes people drag along, always tired, never real hungry, often unable to digest their food, breathless after the slight- est exertion, and too often on the verge of complete breakdown. lrlore weak, anaemic people have been made strong; energetic and cheerful by taking Dr. Williams Pink Pills than "liy any ocher means.. These pills actually make new, rich blood which reaches every part of the body, strengthens the nerves and brings new health and strength. The following is proof of Dr. Williams Pink Pills to re The Birds, and the Fire. This is an Indian legend that tells us how greatly some of the birds have changed since those early days when! they could talk and do other things that men do. In those days, for ex-, t aluple, the wren was the bravest of birds, the crow was white, the owl ha -1: sharper eyts than the eagle, and the turkey had a feathered head, suck as most other birds have; 1 The story goes that one cold day in ! winter some of the birds wanted tr biuid a fire, but they had neither! matches nor flint, and so they shivered' and shivered until one of them found a little spark left in the smothering heart of a big log that had been on the fire the day before. Among th many birds that quickly gathered round the log were -the wren, the crow. the owl and the turkey. How could ENGLAND TO HONOR FRANCE. July 14, Gallic National Holiday to be Observed by .British. For some time past there has be a widespread feeling that mea should be found to recognize in. tangible fashion the spirit of unity that now is linking France bo Eng- land. It has now been decided, with the approval of the French .Ambassador, to set apart July 14 next as France's day, to devote the day throughout the British Isles to a national demonstra- tion of British cordial feeling toward her ally and to allocate the proceeds of the celebration to the urgent needs of the French Red Cross. It is intended that "France's day" shall differ in every respect from pre- vious celebrations of a similar char- acter and that it shall prove to be one of the most interesting and gratifying 1 events in the London season. s JustMore Noir 1MA-rt.

Canadian Order of Foresters Are Prospering. A report of the annual meeting of the Canadian Order of Foresters will elms of about two feet in diameter 1 be found' in this issue. The reports were selected, Each- team of three; of the several officers of the Order men was to fell three trees. The Cana- dian team, to the ragtime music of an Anzac band, was started off first, nand the brawny soldiers swung their axes with leisurely but powerful strokes that bit deeply into the living wood. The picked Canadian team had been called away t� duty and was unable to take part, but its substitute brought the three trees crashing to the ground in 45 minutes and 22 seconds. The Australians then tackled their task, and swinging their axes more quickly than the Canadians, managed it in 31 minutes and 8 seconds. A great roar from the interested spec- tators, soldiers off duty for the most part, when the time was announced. Then the Maoris of New Zealand, brown sons of the forest, wore start- ed on their task, and a murmur rose from the watchers as they saw the. swift, tireless swing of the axes wielded by the muscular brown men. Their efforbs did not slacken, indeed they, seemed to quicken, as the axes bit into the hard wood and the chips flew out. The Maoris felled the three trees in 22 minutes and 40 seconds, thus easily winning first prize. In the wood sawing contest, how- ever, the Canadians came be the fore. In this Clatter of Health one is either with the win- ners or with the losers. It's largely a question of, right eating—right food.° For sound health one must cut out rich, indigestible foods .and choose those that are known to contain the elements that build sturdy, bodies and keen brains. gape Nuts is a `wonderfully balanced food, made from whole wheat and barley, It con- tains all the nutriment of the grain, -. including the mineral phosphates, indis- pensable in Nature's plan for body and brain rebuild - g. , Grape -Nuts is a concen- trated food, easy to digest. It 'is economical, has deli- cious flavor and has helped thousands in the winning class. "There's a Reason' Canadian. Postusn Cereal Co., Ltd:,' Windsor, Ont. show the same steady progress during 1915 which it has experienced since its inception in 1879. The Insurance Fulid increases during the'year to $465,500.82, the largest sum since the Order's inception. After the payment of 602 death claims, amounting to $692,179,88, this'fund showed $5,205,- 868.62 on hand at end of the year. The amount on hand at the present time is $5,388,754.58. The yearly re- venue from investments now amounts to nearly half the total amount paid in death claims. The sick. and funeral benefit fund shows a larger net min- crease than in any year in the Order's history. Arrangements have been made for carrying enlisted members without inconvenience to the general fund. The death rate for 1916 was only 6.50, but if the war claims were deducted the rate would have been 6.20. Altogether the Order is to be congratulated on its strong position in every department. MILLIONS FOR BRITISH TARS Millions of Pounds Will Be Awarded After the War. A vasf sum of money—it will run into millions of pounds before she war is over—is steadily accumulating for distribution among the officers and men of the British navy when peace comes. The money represents the value of enemy warships sunk or captured in battle and trading vessels and their cargoes captured at sea and .,_.sub- sequently "condemned" by prize court, less the small percentage taken by the Government. The money is known •respectively as bounty money and prize money. Bounty money is awarded in connec- tion with the sinking or capturing of enemy warships, and. is paid to the men of the ship or ships actually re- sponsible for the feat.- Bounty money is generally paid on a basis of so much for every man in the sums or captured vessel, the money being awarded in a descending scale accord- ing to rank and seniority, the com- mander, of course, getting. the ]ion's share. The .whole of the prize money awarded in •connection with the .cap- ture of an enemy trading vessel as distinct from a warship is not, hove,: ever, given to the ship responsible .for the capture In former wars it has been the practice to reward the captors only, but it will easily be seen how unfair a .system this is, anicl. now the money is pooled among all the ships of the navy. �' How prize money mounts up was strikingly illustrated by the sale, of five captured German trading vessels at the Baltic Exchange, London, some time ago. Between them, the five ships sold. for £130,725, which, less the Govern- ment's :small percentage on the sale;" left a nice little addition for the bank- ing account which the officers and men of` the fleet will go shares in; when the war is over. EW BRUNSWICK WOMAN SAYS ',ISE DODD'S IIDNEY PILLS. I Mrs. Patrick Williams Tells How Her Headache and Weakness Vanished When She Used the Great Canadian Kidney e ' id i ey Item dy, Rodd a Kidney Pills. St. Sosime, Kent Co,, N.B., June 20th (Special,) ---"I feel it my duty to tell the pttblic the great relief from headache and weakness I found in Dodd's Kidney Pills," This was the message Mrs. Patrick Williams of this place sends to suf- fering women all over Canada. Like many other women she dislikes talk- ing about her troubles, but she feels she would not be doing right to let others suffer when she had learned. from her own experience how great is the relief and how easy is the cure to be found in Dodd's Kidney Pills, Nine -tenths of the weakness and suttering women bear wa bravely comes from sick kidneys. Sick or dis- ordered kidneys fail in their duty of straining the impurities out of the blood, This means that these impuri- ties, these seeds of disease, are car- ried to all parts of the body. The natural cure is Dodd's Kidney Pills. They always cure sick kidneys.' FORESTS AND SHELL FIA, More Damage Done in Canada by Forest Fires Than by War. "Of the forests of Ailly, there re- main but a few mutilated trunks. It is a field of desolation, levelled by shells." This was written of a French for- est following a deluge of German ar- tillery. It might as easily have been written of thousands of square miles in all parts of Canada following the deluge of annual forest fires. Nothing can save the magnificent French forests but an Eastward re- adjustment of the trenches. No such grim necessity, however, faces the Canadian Provincial and Federal Gov- ernments in the relatively simple task of keeping our ready-made wealth of timber free from needless conflagra- tions... No army need fight for it; no life need be sacrificed. All that is re- quired is common. -sense organization, and that is precisely where most of Canada's forest -guarding sysbems are weak. In Ontario, for instance, few of the many radical improvements of modern experience have yet been in- corporated. In the prairie provinces, despite the fact that the northern parts of Ma'z1'itoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta are destined by nature for o growing valuable crops and develop- ing water powers for future indus- tries, forest protection is applied only in patches and a huge resource turned to secondary account. The pressure of conservation senti- ment, however, is making itself felt. British Columbia and Quebec and Nova Scotia now lead the procession of provinces in building up forest pro- tection laws and organizations. Their annual savings in timber riches well repay their efforts. Ontario, New Brunswick and the Federal Govern- ment can with relatively small ex- pense—in some cases, no extra ex - pen a whatever=place the timber wealth now under their care on a ba- sis which would reap enormous bene- fits for present and future. The job of ridding a country of forest fires has been proved byeexperience'to be comparatively simple. f common interest (sewerage, 1 under the control of the London Count C general boards having special funs- , Tablets for her little ones she will use t0132.7117Posaa Teres iii,ta ,a)s, :;:J, Sill$ 11 C.'
