AND GOOD HOURS Help You to Resist flisease---.lid 'These With a Tonic to Keep the Mood Pure. The power of your body to resist disease and to fight it after disease gets a tuotbold, is one of the most precious possessions you have. You weaken this power when you let your general health run down, your blood gets titin and your nerves unsteady. You weaken it viten you wry, a when you over-warIr, when you do not get sufficient sleep, and wben you are under -nourished, either because you do not eat the right land of food or ' because your digestion is out of order, You preserve your power to resist disease when you keep good hours and eat proper food at regular inter- vals.

The value of those pills as a health builder is fully Shown by the experience of Airs, L. C. Taylor, Hanover, Ont., who says: "'At vari- ous tines since I was a girl of fifteen I have proved the value of Dr. Wil- liams l-liams Pink Pills. At that age I was in a much run down condition, suffer- ing from many of tho well known symptoms of anaemia. My mother procured a supply of Dr. Williams Pink Pills, and after taking about a half dozen boxes I was restored to normal health. .again after my mar- riage, and before my boy was born, I felt miserable and again took Dr. Wil- liams Pink Pills, which once more met all _my expectations and fully re- stored my health. My latest experi- once with these pills was following an attack of pleursy, which left me com- pletely broken in health. Part of the time I was under the care of two doc- tors, and for three months I was prac- tically between life and death. Again at my mother's suggestion I started the use of Dr. Williams Pink Pills. I had not been taking them long before I could tell that they Were helping nie. Day by day I could feel my strength returning, and was soon enjoying good health once more. Xn view of nay ex- perience I think I can 'safely say there is nothing in the way of medi- cine better than Dr. Williams Pink Pills. -Dr, Williams Pink Pills are sold. by ail medicine dealers or -by mail at 50 cents. a box or six boxes for $2.50 front The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. All About Cloves. Ninety per cent. of the world's .sup- ply of cloves come from two tiny is- lands off the East coast of Africa— Zanzibar and Pemba. Born in thetroplcs, the clove takes unto itself some off the intense heat of the broiling sun. To pass through a clove plantation in the harvest is to experience one of. the most fascinating sights upon earth. The high trees—some of.. then nearly forty feet, and closely resembling an olive -tree in appearance—are ,sugges- tive of giant perfume • bottles, dis- guisefein leaves ''The air is saturated with the delicious scent, and for many days afterwards your clothes carry the seductive aroma. To lie at anchor off Zanzibar en ai moonlight night, with the ,scent of clove, heavy in the air, is to live in an' earthly paradise. The clovetrees are planted in long lines, about twenty feet apart, miming • east and west, so as to ensurethe crop having a maximum of sunshine, yield two crops ayear. The cloves are found in bunches, of from ten to fifteen, hidden underneath the leaves. Swahils, the natives of Zanzibar, gre, employed by the Arab owners' of the plantations to gather the crops, telescopic ladders being used to enable thein to reach the tops of the highest 'trees, where the best cloves are usually found.

To wake up in the morning, fresh, non -grumpy, and with the cheerful "Hail, exuding morn!" spirit, i,a the happy lot of a few -a very few! You could thick out those fortunate indi- viduals on a. station platfor'hn : ny morning. The rest—well, they don't "find themselves" till about eleven a.m., or later. They are suffering from morniugitis. and why?* Well, for cue thing, they most likely, did liot wake up naturally, but 'iret"e awakened --ruthlessly, yet necessarily, and dug out of their unfinished sleep. There's all the difference in the world between waking up and being woke :up! The remedy is either to go to bed earlier, eo that you can have your sleep out, or to readjust the way in which you spend the hour before re- tiring. etiring. Nothing should be eaten dur- ing that time. Tltat enables the pro- cesses of digestl'm to begin before you retire, and your internal arrangements will have a needful rest. Nor should you smoke within, at least, half an hour of bed -time. An hour would be better. Smoking is a form of "drugging," not a vicious or wicked one, and much of that morning heaviness is due to smoking right up to the tirne of going to bed. As a nation, we are far too fond of a multitude of bed -clothes. We get too hot; body exhalations cannot es- cape; our health is affected. Hence— morningitis! Reduce the bed -clothing, therefore. And when you have done that, and adopted the other hints given, take away one of the pillows from tinder your head and put it under your feet. For perfect sleep, and a fresh wakening, the head should be on the level of the body, and not elevated. i orningitis means a loss of ef- ficiextcy. -.So prevent it, .or cure it— and wake up A 1, not 0 3.
