The Saving Habit
MANY people who are earn-
ing less than you, and
whose necessary expenses
exceed yours, have been
saving for years and now
have snug arid comfortable
bank accounts. Systematic
saving was the foundation
of many a large fortune.
It is a habit that is easily
acquired, affording more
satisfaction and offering
larger rewards than any
other habit that you could
form.
You can open an aceount
in this bank with one dol-
lar, and every six months
your savings will be credit-

STRENUOUS WORK.
„ SOON TELLS ON YOU
Business Men and Breadwinners the
Victim:3 of Nervoua Exhaustion.
When worry is added to overwork
men sour become the victims of nervous
exhaustion- neurasthenia - the doctor
cane it. Some have no reserve strength
in their systems to hear the strain;
others overtax what strength they have.
If you find that you are nervous and
not sure of yourself, that you sleep bad-
ly, and wake up tired and aching, your
nerves are out of order. Other signs
are inability to take proper interest in
your work, your appetite fickle, your
back feels weak, and you are greatly
depressed in spirits. One or more of
these signs mean that you should take
prompt steps to stop mischief by nour-
ishing the nerves with the food they
thrive on, namely, the rich, red blood
made by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
These Pills have cured thousands of
cases of nervous disorders, including
nervous prostration, neuralgia, St. Vit-
us dance and partial paralysis. Here
is an example. Mr. Jas. A. McDonald,
Springhill, N. S says: "In the sum-
mer of 1912, as the result, I think, of
hard work, I was completely run down
and found it necessary to quit work. I
slept poorly, and what sleep I did get
did n st seem to rest me, as I was con-
stantly tired. My appetite was poor
and fickle, and my nerves unstrung. I
had treatment from a doctor for some
time, but it did not seem to help me,
and having heard a great deal about
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills 1 decich d to try
them. In the course of a few weeks
after beginning the Pills I picked up
wonderfnlly, and was able to return to
work feeling like a new man. I have
not had a day's sickness since, and nat-
urally am now a firm believer in Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will work
the same beneficial results in any other
tired, worn-out worker if given a fair
trial. If you cannot obtain the Pills
from your dealer they will be sent post
paid at 50 cents a box or six boxes for
$2.r.0 by writing The Dr. Williams'
Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.
afternoon train for Toronto, where
they will spend a few days before tak-
ing up their residence here.

interesting address on England, his

apoke on Ireland, interspersing his re-
marks with amusing references to the
Irishman's wit and repartee: These
addresses were greatly appreciated,
more especially as both speakers have
visited these lands, and were speaking
from personal observation. A dialogue
entitled "A Trip to Chicago," in which
the ladies were attired in old-fashioned
costumes, was received with rounds of
applause. The trio and mixed quar-
tette were very much enjoyed, also a
musical selection by Rev. Mr. Penrose

rendered several selections and the
regular nUmber of the Whitechurch
"Echo" was read by Mr. A. McKay.
