THE DOOR TO HEALTH
Is Through the Rich, Red Blood
Dr. Williams, Pink Pills
Actually Make
Toe blood is responsible for the
health of the body. If it is good, dis-
ease cannot exist. If it is bad, the door
is shut against good health, disease is
bound to appear in one form or an-
other One person may be seized with
rheumatism or sciatica, another with
anaemia, indigestion, heart palpi-
tation, headaches or backaches, un-
strung nerves, or any of the many oth-
er form of ailments that comes when
the blood is weak and watery. There
ie just one certain, speedy cure -Dr.
Williams Pink Pills. They make new,
rich, blood, and this good blood streng-
thens the whole system and brings
good health and happiness. Thousands
owe their present good health, some,
life itself, to pills. Miss Devine Lali-
berti, St. Jerome, Que., says;- Last
year I seemed gradually to grow wea
and run clown. I did not sleep w
had a poor appetite, and grew pa
generally languid. I consulted octor
who told me I was aneamic.. '• nd gave
me a tonic. This I took thfully for
some time, but it did n• elp me, and
finally I was haply : e to go about
the house andm• wholly incapac-
itated for work, Nile in this condition
a friend advised me to try Dr. Williams
Pink Pills, and I got several poxes. It
was not long after I began their use
when I could see an improvement,
which just manifested itself in an im-
proved appetite and better rest at
night. From this on the improve-
ment was rapid and I was not long in
regaining perfect health. I think Dr.
Williams Pink Pills are a real blessing
for all weak girls."
You can get these pills through any
medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents
a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The
Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockvile,
Ont.

The Township of Carrick has come in
for a good deal of "roasting" because
of its small contributions in men and
money in the interests of the war. But
it appears to be improving as time goes
on. The Mildmay Gazette, which is
the voice of the township, states that
an effort by local patriotic workers re.
suited in raising $775 00 by subscription
for the British Red Cross Fund. This
is not a big amount for so rich a town-
ship as Carrick, but the Gazette says
it is quite an improvement on what was
dons a year ago.

$ HE cost of living has nearly doubled during the last I5 years.
Almost everything in common use has risen in price. Yet $
your weekly newspaper has remained a dollar a year without ver. $
$ lotion.
$ The printer and publisher have not escaped having to
$ pay the higher cost of living and publishing.
$ He pays what others -pay for the necessities of life. $
$ Even before war broke out, the old dollar rate was
known to be unprofitable. It costs at least 61.50 to
$ produce a good weekly newspaper -this when it has a
good circulation, and when circulations are small, the
61.50 rate is scarcely enough.
$ But the war has made the old dollar rate quite impos-
sible. Paper prices have jumped alarmingly. Ink
$ prices have doubled, trebled, quadrupled. Many col-
ored inks are quite off the market. Type is terribly
high. And so we could go on reciting the dismal tale
of higher publishing costs.
What we want to do is to let you see for yourself $,
that in the face of these things, only one thing was
$ left open to us -•--it was to raise the price of TILE
TIMES to a $1,50 a year.
