Now by Building Your Blood and Strengthening Your Nerves, The good old fashion of taking a tulip in the springtime, Iike most at the customs of our grandparents,. is basest uPou sound common sense, and good medical practice. Winter is al- ways a trying time, for those who are not in rugged physical health, 'Many men, women and children go through the winter on reserve strength they have stored up during the -sum y, sum. mer months, and grow increasingly pale and languid as the spring days approach. A tonic for the blood and nerves at this time will do .much for suck people, by putting color in the cheeks and banishing that tired Seel- lug that worries thousands of people at this season of the year, It is impossible to be energetic if your blood is thin and weak, or If your nerves are frayed or shattered. You cannot compete with othere it you do not get retreating sleep at night, or if your appetite is poor or `you are losing weight. Yon need a ton*; at this time to .add to Your et- fciency now, as well as to save you from, suffering later on. And in all the realm of medicine, there is no cater or better tomo tban Dr. Wil - llama' fink Pills. These pills tone and outlets the blood which circulates through every portion of the body, strengthening ,laded nerves and run down organs, and bringing a feeling of new strength and energy tc weak, easily tired, despondout men, women. and children. Mrs. J. N. McNeil, Glace Bay, N.S., says: "For years past n1Y home has never been without Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I Slave good reason to Praise them highly. Following an attack of la grippe, I was Lett in a badly run down condition. I had no appetite and felt so weak I could scarcely go about the bouse, I' was taking medi- cine, but it was not helping me, and a friend advised me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I used thein for a time with the most beneficial results; My appetite improved, my strength re- turned and 1 was soon able to do all ray housework. I now use the pills every spring and find them :.splendid strength bringing tonic, 1 have recom- mended the pills to other friends who have used them with good results." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a tamenot a stimulant. st m ant. They build up the blood, and through their use not only the disastrous atter effects of in- fluenza but also troubles due to poor blood, such as anaemia, rheumatism, indigestion and the generally worn - {,at feeling that affects so many people, disappear. You can get these pills through any dealer in medicine, or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $5.50, from The Dr. 'Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. MODELS FOR MEN FOLK Oaf.

Despite a pretty legend that dolls first appeared on the branches of trees • in the Garden of Eden, tie earliest really authentic records go back to the days of the Romans, who made quaint, sphinxlike, jointed dolls of ivory, which modern doll makers have copied. The Roman children, ac- cording to Macaulay, had dolls, which they offered to Venus when they grew older. There is no very good evidence, however, that the use of dolls dates from more remote times. Among the native tribes of Africa it was the custom of married women to carry a doll with them until they had a child, Even. kings played with dolls, and a hundred years ago there were talking and walking dolls, which to -day are still regarded as novelties. At a French exhibition held in 1823 dolls that could say "papa" and "mam- ma" were exhibited, and three, years later dolls that could walk were shown .in the shops. About the same time dolls were made that could open and close their eyes, The , averageweekly wage for (women in ;Britain .has risen from lOs-15s. weekly an 1914 to 25s -35s. now. A fire extinguisher does no good: while at is merely hanging on the wall; to be effective, it must be turned up- side down and the liquid squirted on the. fire.

Every once in a while I see that I stages of development, and eggs about have figured that a certain convent- to be hatched and fresh. enee is for the city man only. Thea I find that it is just as handy and pays as well on the farm as anywhere else. This time it is a safety deposit box. in the bank where I do business. it costa me $1 for the keys, and that is all. If I ever want to discontinue its use I get my dollar back, so it costs me in reality about six cents a year, since that is the interest rate here. But so far as the cost is concerned i believe it would be worth far more. I keep my insurance policies, my deeds, and cancelled notes and mort- gages in this box. Outside of the. deed for the farm the others could be replaced if taken by thieves or if burned. But in my case the man who deeded the farm to me is, insane, and airs except uncles and aunts. has no h P The cost of replacing this deed would be quite an item, and it would also be a great bother. I am starting on thisfarm and in debt, so I don't have many notes on hand, but a farmer who is farther along and out of debt could easily have dozens of them, as well as securities of other sorts that must be kept safe. It is true that most men pay their notes, but there are some who wouldn't if a note were lost. Some securities require no en- dorsement, and when stolen are easily sold. Some Victory bonds, for in- stance, are of this sort. The bank vault is about as safe for these papers as any human can make a. place. It certainly is fire -proof, and it is also burglar-proof. Better look up a safety box in your bank: It may save you a hundred times its cost E. R. When Suns Are Born, Our sun hS' called by asti•oaamers "dwarfall, elderly and decrepit It is, in fact, but a small star, rid, peal.- iug In cosmic terms, it is i.eariy• lama ed a. r- ed out. Sirius --sixty or more times as big as our solar orb— is a good example of a young sun, lusty and vigorous, If we would study the babyhood at a sun, we have only to consider any one of the se -called "variable" stars, which are scattered all over the;ste1- lar universe. These get their name froiu the fact that at intervals they exhibit a greatly increased brightness. The intervals vary from a few hours to several weeks, but for each star they are so regular that the next brightening may. be counted on to occur at a given mo- ment, within a fraction of a second. `rlie "variable" stars are not solid bodies. They are enormcus masses of flaming gas. In these masses occur periodic pulsations, causing at regular intervals outbursts of augmented light and heat. The least brilliant of these stars is more luminous than 100 suns like, ours. Many of then( give out more light tban 1,000 suns. It is thought that once upon a time g our "orb of day" was like one of those a balk of blirntng gas millions of times bigger than it is now. It was then a baby sun; to -day how miser- ably aged. shrunken and debilitated: Let us cry!

Wholesale looting of merchandise in transit on the railroads of the United States caused a loss of nP- Proximately $4G,000,000 In 1919, ac- cording' to United States Railroad Ad- ministration statistics made public re- eeutlY, This Is estimated to be more than double the losses sustained in any pre-war year, but it is painted out that the increased cost of the com- modities stolen, roughly estimated to average 85 per cent., must be taken into consideration when eamparing the losses in the days of low prices with losses now. Nevertheless there has been a steadily increasing num- ber et packages stolen, and the or ganization combating the thieves have met an increased ingenuity is divert- ing goods from their owners. A technique of robbery has been developed so highly that the methods of "master thieves" are similar in the 'United States, England, France, Italy and Argentina, according to a recent report of the United States Chamber of Commerce in Argentina. Detec- tives, however, are inclined to dis- credit that organization's belief that a "widespread international organiza- tions' is at work stealing merchandise. uti n is the usual al v t ir, method used by the thieves. Sometimes boxes supposed to contain velvets are found at their destination to be filled with calico or other cheaper grades of cloth, but as, a rule, waste paper is iourid. These are referred to as "con- cealed losses" by railway men, and are especially difficult to trace, as the shipment leaves and arrives ap- parently in good condition, and it is almost impossible to discover at what point the theft occurred. The silk industry has been one of the most severely hit in the last year, and so great has the risk become that' the Railroad Administration has been consideriug excluding raw silks from the privilege of freight transportation by rail, The Merchants' Association of New York. through its traffic bureau, has protested against such an exclusion, • advocating some less radi- cal measure to minimize or prevent the theft of silk in transit.
