People who are tired all the time and uover feel rested, even after a long night in be& people who cannot regain weight and strength, who feel no joy in living, are in a condition described by doctors as general de - Witty. A medical examination might show that every organ in the body is acting normally, but the pallor of the face will usually show that the blood is weak and watery. This is the root of the trouble. Debility is a loss or vitality, not af- fecting any one part of the body but the system generally. The blood goes to every part of the body and the use of a blood touic like Dr. Williams' Pink Pills quickly tones up the whole system. The first sign of returning health is a better appetite, an im- proved digestion, a quicker step and better color in the cheeks. The rich, red blood, reaching every organ and muscle, carries new health and vigor. The nerves are quieted, sleep becomes more refreshing and with persistent treatment and a good diet the patient is once more enabled to enjoy life. The ease of Mr. W. Doxtater, R.R. No, 4, Tilsonburg, Ont„ illustrates the great value of Dr. Pink Pills in eases of this kind, Mr. Doxtater says:—"I was troubled with pains throughout TOY whole body, wasceax- treinely nervous, did not sleep at night, and was further afflicted with thee- matism. In spite of different treat- ment this condition persisted, indeed I was growing worse, and had fallen away in weight to no pounds and was scarcely able to do any work, Then I began taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and after a few weeks there was a noticeable idiprovemerit in my condi- tion. 1 continued4taking the pills, con- stantly gaining until I felt as well as ever I did. While taking the tails my weight increased to 170 pounds, and I can now do as good a day's work as anyone. My advice if YOU are not feeling well is to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills diad they will soon pat you right." At the first sign that the blood is Out of order take Dr, Williams' Pink Pills, and note the speedy improve- ment they make in the appeVte, health and spirits. You can get these pills through any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for e2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. ef.stigartartte Tanstrz 8685.—The embroidered band and bit of embroidery on the front of the waist gives this gown an essense of distinction.

Calculations of Its Age Range Up to 1,600,000,000 Years. - it would be difficult to think of any question less important to the average man or woman than whether the earth is 1,600,000,000 years old or only 10,- 000,000. But many are none the less interested in it. Three ways there are, says Dr. William Harvey McNairn of McMaster University, Toronto, by which an effort is made to answer the question, and the three answers af- ford to the average citizen a wide range of choice. By the oldest method which reaches conclusions by estimating how long it right kind of men to get a start at is taking the SIM to cool, the earth is between 10,000,000 and 30,000,000 years old. The geologists, however, studying the age of geological depos- its, demand 100,000,000 years; and the latest method, which applies the re- sults of the discovery of radium to es- timating the age of some of the earth's minerals declares the geologists too conservative and figures the age of the earth at anything un to 1,600,000,000 LEMON JUICE IS A SKIN WHITENER How to make a creamy beauty lotion for a few cents.

The colony superintendent is an ex- pert agriculturist and it is his duty to hands assist the colonists with advice as to the best manner of conducting their farming operations, His headquarters is the central control farm, e fame somewhat larger than the rest of the farms in. the colony, which is used largely for demonstration purposes, and among other function, serves as a supply depot for male live stock. The central control farm is situated at a point most conveniently reached by all the settlers in the colony and will no doubt become their chief meet- ing place. A more enthusiastic community of farmers will be hard to find anywhere than those in process of formation in these veterans' colonies in Alberta. To see the men at work, for themselves, on their Own farms, after what they have gelle through, is an inspiring sight, The spirit of mutual help and coneradery that is everywhere evident, speaks well for the success of the ven- ture. These tarns colonies are sure to become eentres of considerable agra cultural activity. FROM FIGHTING TO FARMING.

Here in these colonies are soldages of all ranks, a number of whom were in the firing line up to the signing of the armistice. What surprises one most is that/so many of them have so soon got back to practical work again and the Canadian Pacific Railway is to be congratulated on having had the foresight to adopt a practical scheme which has made it possible for a large number of men to begin farming on their own account in so short a space of time after their release from mili- tary duties. But this company has a reputation for making it easy for the farming, and its soldiers' settlement scheme is only au elaboration of its original "Ready Made Farm" and set- tlement plans, by means of which many of Western Canada's most pros- perous farmers are enabled to begin farming in a new country under most favorable circumstances and which has contributed in no small measure to their present sucaess.

Planting Trees With Dynamite Advo- eated in England. There has been a good deal of talk of late about the value of explosives as fertilizer, says a London magazine. It is quite true that ordinary black powder will make most crops grow, but you can't very well go plowing dy- namite into the ground. Few people, at any rate, would care to risk doing se. For all that, dynamite and similar explosives are going to be of the greatest possible value to the farmer, and especially to men who till stiff, rocky, or unproductive ground. There is much lance in and around the New Forest which is underlaid by a. thin layer of tough clay or rock which holds the ram and prevents it from draining away. Nothing grows well upon land of this kind, because the roots cannot penetrate the layer of "hard pan." Here is where dynamite comes in. You can either use a number of small charges and break up a large ex- panse, Or—if you are planting trees— you can make each hole separately with explosive. Trees, especially apple, pear, plum and cherry, that are planted with dy- namite, grow nearly twice as fast as trees planted with pick and shovel. The dynamite, exerting its force down- wards, opens up deep fissures into which the roots can penetrate. 'As for ordinary crops such as wheat, actual experiments show that ground broken up by dynamite will yield very much larger crops than ground plowed in the usual manner. SAVE THE CHILDREN Mothers who keep a box of Baby's Own Tablets in the house may feel that the lives of their little ones are reasonably safe during the hot wea- ther. Stomach troubles, cholera in- fantum and diarrhoea carry off thou- sands of little ones every summer, in most cases because the mother does not have a safe medicine at hand to give promptly. Baby's Own Tablets relieve these troubles, or if given oc- casicinally to the well child will pre- vent their coming on. The Tablets are guaranteed by government analyst to be absolutely harmless even to the newborn babe. They are especially good. in summer because they regu- late the bowels and keep the stomach sweet and pure. They are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25c. a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. WORLD'S SMALLEST REPUBLIC High Finance.

The conductor was dayalreaming, He must have been, or he would have seen the small bore wha suddenly dash- ed out of a cottage garden, and ran af- ter the 'bus, shouting frantically, "'Stop, stop!" ordered the usual of- ficious old gentleman, as he prodded the conductor with kis umbrella, The conductor stopped the 'bus. "What d'ye want, kid?" he asked crossly, as the panting lad reached the step. "Urry up and get in!" "Don't want to get in!" retorted the, youngster, as be held mit a penny, "Muvver wants two appenies for tile; she's goin' to church!" An Area of Less Than a Square Mile and a Population of 130. The smallest republic in the world, so far as area is concerned, is St. Goust, situated in an ,almost inacces- sible part of the Basses -Pyrenees. St. Goust is hardly a square mile in area, with a population of virtually 130 per- sons, who rule themselves. The presi- dent is elected by a council of twelve, chosen for five years by the people, 'and he is likewise judge, assessor and tax collector. This little republic has been ruled, it as said, for snore than 2000 years through a council of elders. The small- est, sell -governed state in the world in regaed to population is Tevoiara, an island but little known, off the north coast of Sardinia.

The signing at the peace treaty is one of the greatest events in history, it makes powerful appeal to the imagi- nation. The coincidences are interest- ing. Five years to a day from the date of the assassination of Crown Prince Ferdinand, which furnished. Germany with tbe pretext for a war long planned, an instrument is exe- cuted that shatters the whole fabric or Germaa military autooracy.

What He Saw. In his daily half-hour confidential talk with his boy, an ambitious father tried to give him some advice. "Be observing, my son," said the father on one occasion. "Cultivate the habit of seeing and you will be a suc- cessful man. Study things and re- member them. Don't go through the world blindly. Learn to use your eyes. Boys who are observant know a great deal more than those who are not." Willie listened in silence. Several days later, when the entire family, consisting of his mother, aunt and pieta, were present, his father said: "Well, Villie, have you been using your eyes as I advised you to do?" Willie nodded, and after a moment's hesitation, said: "I've seen a few things about the house. Uncle Jim's got a bottle of. hair dye hid under his bed, Aunt Jen. nit's got an extra set of teeth in her room, ma's got some auris in her hat, and pa's got a pack of cards and a box of dice hidden behind the bookcase." 0 0 u0 0-0--0 0 0 0 .0-0 It Works!

Because 90% (..f his patients are suffering from ailments caused di. reedy or indirectly by the lotion of poisons formed in a sluggish intes- tinal tract. These body poisons are absorbed by the blood and carried all over the body until the weakest organ, unable to withstand the poisonous contact, becomes infected and refuses to act properly. Unfortunately it is usually not until then that the doctor is con- sulted and asked to treat the diseased organ. .. The surest way of purifying the blood and preventing the formation of these destructive body poisons is to prevent stagnation of food waste in the intestinal tract—to prevent constipation. Constipation is not a matter to be taken lightly or neglected. Nor is it either sufficient or safe to take castor oil, pills, salts, mineral waters, etc., in order to "force" bowel action. Such action does not cure constipation, it makes constipation a habit. Nnjot is entirely different from drugs as k does not force or irritate the bowels, Nujol prevents stagnation by softening the food waste and encouraging the In. testinal muscles to act naturally, thus re- moving the cause of constipation and self- poisoning It is absolutely harmless an/ pleasan to take.
