'SCHOOL CHILD
Needs Rich, Recti Blood to Regain
Health and Strength.
Many .children start' school in ea-
cellent health, but' after a short time
home work, examinations, hurried
meals and crowded school rooms cause
their blood to become weak anti thin,
their nerves over wrought and their
color and spirits lost, it is a great
mistake to let matters drift when boys.
and girls show symptoms of nervous-
ness or weak blood. They are almostf
sure to fall victims of St. Vitus dance,
or drift into debility that leads to
other troubles. Regular,. meals,, out-
door exercise and plenty of sleep are
neeeasary to combat the nervous wear
of school life. But U is still more im-
portant thatare tsshoul strict

attention to the school child's blood
supply, Keep this rich and red by giv-
ing Dr. `Williams' Pink Pills according
to directions and the boy or girl will
be sturdy and At for school- The value
of 1)r, Williams' Pirtle Pills in casts of
this kind is shown by the statement
of Airs. Pearl G. Harrington, Kings-
ville, Out., who 'lasts:—"I have often
felt that I should write you and let
you ktidw what Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills did far me. At the age of thir-
teen I was afflicted with St. Vitus
dance. The trouble became so severe
that I had to be taken from school, 1
was given naedfoa;l treatment but it
did not help me, in fact I was steadily
growleg worse, Then a friend ad
vised my mother to give me Dr. Wil.
Items' Pink Pills, which she did, with
the happiest results, as the pills com-
pletely cured me and I was again able
to take up my studies and attend
school. Again about three years ago
I was attacked with nervous prostra-
tion and once mare took Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, and after using five boxes
was fully restored. I cannot praise
these pills too Highly as I believe they
will cure any case oe St, Vitus dance,
i or restoiee anyone who is weak, nerv-
ous or run down,
You can safely give Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills to the most delicate child,
or take them yourself with equally
goad results when you need a blood
tonic. These pills are sold by all
dealers in medicine, or will be sent by
mall, post paid, at 50 cents a box or

European Farmers Getting
Back on Their Feet.
\ The territory included before the
war in .1—Imagery, Bulgaria and Ru-
mania probably will export at least
1350,000 tons oP bread grains from
current crops, compared to 3,900,000
tons in, Average pre-war Years,
Bo far as its production of bread
grains is concerned Bulgaria Is prate
tically on a pre-war basis aria Hungary
almost so, but Rumania is still far
from complete recovery. The most
optimistic claims of Rui'leania for ex-
port this year are 500,000 tons as
against 1,700,000 tons of pre-war years.
In the wheat -producing region of
southern Hungary the acreage platit-
ed this year is fully ninety per cent
of the normal pre-war acreage. in
that part of Rumania occupied by the
armies of the Central rowers, con-
siderable land was not cultivated this
year, while that which was devoted to
crops was found in rather poor con
(Mion. This came about because the
Teutonic armies ravaged the country
of much of the work stock and agri
cultural implements. however, des
'pith this Rumania will be more than
self-supporting, and as the maize erop
is improving on account of conditions
during, the summer, Rumania will have
a certain amount of export surplus.
There will undoubtedly be au export
surplus front southern Hungary, while
Bulgaria, as stated, is at least as weft
off In food production as it was pre-
vious to the war and will be able to
export more than the average amount
of cereals.
According to the specialists there
will be but little -increase in the acre-
age devoted to bread grain craps
throughout eastern and northern Eu-
rope during the next year, -because
most of the tillable land is now in crop
except these areas which were swert
by war. ()repulse, there will be some
small increase if the former battle-
fields are farmed—as they, probably
will be as normal readjustment occurs'
—but in the main it is not anticipated
that these countries will very greatly
increase their acreage. The produc-
tion of. northern Europe will increase
as soon as fertilizers become avail-
able again, though it will probably not
exceed the pre-war production for
some years to come,
Beyond Argument.
The new trish pupil at a Lig board-.
ing-school excited much curiosity by
pis habit of talking to himself. One
clay a senior boy stopped him and ask-
ed, with a supercilious smile:
"Why on earth are you. always chat-
tering to.yourself, Paddy?"
"Shure, for two very good reasoner
was the unabashed reply.
"Two reasons? Whet are they?"
Well, betted, ane of then! I hike to
listen to a sinsible man, and the other
is that I loike to talk to a sfnsible
man."

Where bare brown. brancheswhisper

And, slipping softly through the tiny
twigs,
The startle; sunbeams peep between

Or slide along the sturdy trunks, at

To hide„ in fragrant masses, soft and

Of curly leaves that nestle close about
The loving roots they sheltered from

Or float in lazy drifts about the sky;

And blinking at the winding silver

Insect Reading Lamp.
The lantern -fly of South America
sometimes measures more than two
inches in length. The shape of the
!lead is very curious. It is furnished
with a hollow, transparent snout,
nearly the length of the body,whence
comes the lamplike light,
A lady, relating her first impressions
of these insects, says she had several
of them brought to 11er in the day-
time, and put theta into a box. In the
night the confined insects made such
a noise as to awaken her. She aliened
the box, the inside of which seemed
to be all ablaze, and in her astonish-
ment the box fell from her hands.
Each oi: the insects seemed to Le on
fire.
She soon, however, guessed the
cause, and replaced her brilliant
guests in their place of 'confinement,
She said that the light of one of these
insects was bright enough to read by,

Bald Peacemakers.
An amusing sidelight on the recent
Peace Conference at Versailles is
thrown by a correspondent, who not
only reported the proceedings proper,
but took notes regarding the hair,
moustaches, beat;ds and whiskers oe
the peacemakers. Two-thirds of 'the'
delegates were more or less bald. Per-
hapsesome of them made up for this
by wearing moustaches. Out of sixty-
five men who sat round the peace
table, all had moustaches but four-
teen. Whiskers, on the other • hand,
were not popular. Only three people
wore them, and by a curious coinci-
dente, the navies of all these three
people began with V. They were
Venizelos, of Greece; Vandevelde, of
Belgium; and Vassitch, of Serbia.
The latter's whiskers were particular-
ly prominent. In regard to dress,
there was less formal attire than one
might have imagined. The English
paid no special attention to dress.
Bowler hats and frock coats. once a
combination ,that would never have
been sanctioned, were quite popular;
but there were some countries which
put all they knew' into their attire.
These were notably, the Japanese, and
some of the South American States.

Oxygen For Fliers.
At high levels, suclas birdmen now-
adays often reach, tile air is so thin
that the aviator literally "loses his
breath." He is in danger of collapse_
from this cause.
It was ascertained during the war,
though not at first suspected, that
about 15 Per cent of the candidates
who passed examination for the air
service were really unable to fly at
altitudes ordinarily requisite in the
work they were required to perform.
It was further determined that more
that/90 per cent, of them could not en-
dure flight at extremely high levels.
But,. on the other hand, certain picked
men, perhaps seven or eight out of
100 passed candidates, were able to
ascend to the greatest elevations with-
out peril,
To help in solving this important
war problem an oxygen apparatus was
developed, smaller than the kind used
for -mine -rescue work, but constructed
on much the same principle. Equip-
ped
ped with this contrivance, and carry-
ing a supply of liquid • oxygen along
with hint, the aviator'eould skim along
in safety through the upper reaches of

"Dynamiting" bile out of your Sys-
tem with calomel and other sickening
purgatives is all wrong. Salts, Oil,
and Cathartic Waters act by flooding
the bowels with the digestive juices
which are vital to the stomach. Cas-
carets are different, They act as a
tenth to the bowel muscles, which is
the only sensible way to relieve a
bilious attack, a sour, acid stomach,
or constipated bowels. There is no
griping or inconvenience, You natural-

ness. Cascarets cost very little and
they work while you sleep.

You simply fay to the drug store

but is sufficient to remove every hard

A few drops of this new ether com-
pound applied directly upon a tender,
aching corn should relieve the sore-
ness instantly, and soon the entire
corn, root and all, dries up and can be
lifted out with the fingers.
This new way to rid one's feet of
corns was introduced by a Cincinnati
man, who says that, while freezone is
sticky, it dries in a moment, and sim-
ply shrivels up the corn without in.
