The resolution, presented to the House of Commons by Premier Borden, was carried without a dissenting voice. The stern and serious responsibilities of the struggle in which the Dominion is proudiy da) in a real part stand first in the minds of the men who right- ly represent the thought and spirit of their fellow -Canadians. The war has made its impress on On- tario immigration work, the grant for 1914-15 having been cut in half as com- pared wi; h the previous year. For propaganda purposes. bonuses, etc., the amount for the year figured $48,579, against $101,609 in the preceding twelve months. There was a reduction from $45,000 to $26,000 in propaganda work in Great Britain, and the $10,000 grant to Salvation Army was seved.

You will find the best are the cheapest A clever medical writerlias said that to sow, "Neuralgia is a cry from the nerves NOTE - We do not charge seeds, cash for better blood." In other words, or note must accorapany every sale. neuralgia is not a disease -it is only a KING BROS, symptom, but a very painful one. Neuralgia is the surest sign that your blood is weak, watery and impure, and that your nerves are literally starving. Bad blood is the only cause - rich, red blood the only cure. This gives you the real reason why Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure neuralgia. They are the only medicine that con- tains in correct proportions the ele- ments needed to make rich, red blood. This new, rich ,blood reaches the root of the trouble, soothes the jangled .nerves, drives away the nagging, stabb- ing pain, and braces up your health .hi other ways as well. en promf of jese statements Mrs. A. T. Oulto Attie Snemogue, N. B , says: A few years ago my mother wa n intense sufferer from neuralg' , which was located in her f ce, ne and shoulders. The pain, espe ially ' her head, was intense. She oc ed for some time without gettin ief and there seemed to be no ceasi of the pain whatever. Instead it seemed to be extending and her whole nervous system became af- fected. Finally she decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. After taking them for a while the pain in her head became less severe, and of course this was a great relief to her. Under the continued use of the Pills she felt her- self growing better and stronger each day arid' she was no longer a sufferer and t;17 .IS completely cured, and has felt no symptoms of the trouble since." You can get Dr. Williams Pink Pills from any medicine dealer, or by mail, po;t paid, at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50, from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.
