MR. ROWELL'S NEW REFORMS, An important and significant speech forecasting radical policies of social re- form affecting both the country and the cities, was given by Mr. N. W. Rowell, K. C., M. P. P., at the annual meeting of the Provincial Liberal Women's Association at Toronto. "The abolition of the bar" declared Mr. Rowell, "has removed one of the great obstacles to genuine social re- form. We have been but clearing the deck, so to speak, for a great forward movement in this province. No one will claim that under our existing social conditions there is a fair and equitable distribution of wealth, We must grapple with the situation and endeavor to see that men who labor with their hands, the workers of the nation, should receive full justice. Not charity, but justice." Mr. Rowell declared that among the necessary reforms were that our educational system should be revisad and recast to meet the new conditions of life; that agriculture, the oldest and most honorable of all occupations, should be placed in the commanding position which it should hold in the life of the nation; that every child should receive a fair chance to make the best of life's opportunities; that the industrious workingman, who by sick- ness or misfortune is theown out of employment, through no fault of his own, should be protected from want during the period of sickness or un- employment and that a life of toil, honorably spent, should not end in an old age of penury and want. To secure the necessary revenue for such plans of social reform, there would not only have to be a serious and deter- mined effort to practise economy and thrift, but Mr. Rowell also asked in this connection the following pointed questions: "Should a LET US SERVE YOU just one glass of our soda and we know you will be a fre- quent visitor to our fountain. hor there's no other soda like ours. It's simply nectar and nothing less. Stop in to -day for your first glass of it. Why put off the exquisite pleasure such soda affords? W. A. MILLER Gonfectioner O1 d 1 rl 11,411'N,14e/ Almost every woman at the head of 1 a home meets daily many little wor- ries in her household affairs. They may be too small to notice an hour afterwords, but it is these same con- stant little worries that affect the blood and nerves and make women look pre- maturely old, Their effect may be noticed in sick or nervous headaches, fickle appetite, pain in the back and side, sallow complexion and the coming of wrinkles, which every woman dreads. To those thus afflicted Dr. Williams' Pink Pills offer a speedy and certain cure; a restoration of color to the cheeks 'e ess. nadian health lis is Mrs. Ont., who says: -"After th hirtof my second child I was so we k , d run down that I was unable to c o ything The doc- tor said I had sc cely any blood in my body. I could not walk half a block without being completely exhausted and all the treatment of the doctor did not seem to help me. I called in another doctor, but with no better result. My feet and legs became frightfully swol- len, I suffered with severe pains in my back and sides. I would be all day dragging around at my household work, and was beginning to give up all hopes of recovery. I had been urged to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills, but like many others, thought they could not help me when dectors had failed to do so, but after much urging I decided to try them. To my surprise in a few weeks I found myself getting better. I then gladly continued their use and found myself constantly growing stronger, and eventually able to do my house work without fatigue. I strongly advise every weak woman to give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial." You can get these pills through any mediciee dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box ar six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. 25 HANDYMEN WANTED Huron Battalion needs men handy with tools for the Pioneer Section Good Wages and Short Hours. brightness to the eye, a hearty appe and sense of freedom from wea Among the thousands of women who have found n through Dr. Williams Pink N.

Should the more wealthy and more favoured, whose wealth has been made possible by the exploitation of our natural resources or the toil of their fellow citizens, be asked to make substantial contribution to the public welfare?" THE WOMAN OF TODAY helpfulness. There is not a woman's organization of any sort that is not in some manner contributing to the great cause. The question is; Can they do more? As the war goes on and extends into the future the necessities will become greater and more urgent. Supplies of all sorts will be harder to get, while at the same time there will be more in need. The responsibilities for taking care of the country's defenders will increase and thus grows the importance of every woman in some way taking a hand. Children can knit and sew and make things useful. In fact thousands of them are so engaged. But it is a question if more could not be accom- plished both by the women and children by more extensive organization. Up to date there has been little canvassing for helpful aid. Nearly all that has been undertaken has been voluntarily assumFd. The time (it is to be feared) is coming when this will not be enough. In Britain already house-to-house can- vassing is being conducted and women are being asked, if they cannot do one thing, to do another. The question is put to them plainly -What will you do to help in the defence of your country. in support of the men who are fighting to keep your homes and land from desecration and violation, for the liberty of nations, for the punishment of wilful, wholesale murderers and for the honourable observance of sacred treaties? Answers are generally forthcoming in an agreement to supply each week or month some article or articles that will be useful. Information is afforded on the requirements and the rules of,the service that is asked. In this way a great deal is accomplished' women and girls employing many a spare minute that otherwise would be wasted. Our women are doing much, but are they really doing all they can? As in- dividuals many of them doubtless are, but are they encouraging others to do likewise? In these days it is hardly enough to sit down and work one's self. Examples must be followed and ml:Q•t be forced along. There is nota won: or a child who cannot in some way help. Comprehensive organization is needed to utilize that way. We should one and all bear in mind that at such a time as the present the non -application or mis- application of effort is as much a sin as wasteful extravagance. He was a true philosopher who said that the more fruitful a theme the greater the difficulty to write about it. Could there be any more abundant subject than the women of our land and yet how difficult to say anything at once new and interesting. We can tell of incidents of heroic sacrifice, but to mention such things of a few is to ignore thousands of similar cases. We can tell of the woman who in order to gratify the desire of her sixteen -year old son to join the colours went out and gatheredin twelve recruits. Her deed was noble, marvellous in its motherly and patriotic devotion, but it cannot be emulated by all and it is questionable if it is desirable that it should be. Other mothers have really done as much in sacrificing their only offspring and in dismissing them with a kiss and a fer- vent "God bless and guard you, my boy." It is the number of such sac- rificial incidents that makes them difficult to dwell upon. Yet there are many cases in which the mothers cannot bring themselves to make divine sacrifice, and it is to be feared that usually in such instances they are not urged very strongly to do so: -in other words that the young men are perfectly satisfied to take shelter behind the maternal skirts. However, it is not of the men, but of the women and their work that it is sought to speak. If they are not all Spartans they can each and every one render some service, or to use a much hackney- ed phrase -"do their bit." And the majority are doing it. In numerable ways they are rendering service.
