THE DAWN OF
YOUNG WOMANHOOD
Girls upon the threshold of woman-
hood often drift into a decline in spite
of all care and -attention. Even
strong and lively girls become weak,
depressed, irritable and listless. It is
the dawn of womanhood—a "crisis in
the life of every girl—and prompt
measures should be taken to keep the
blood pure and "rich with the red tint
of health, If the body is not in a
healthy condition at this critical stage,
grave disorders may result, and future
life become a burden, Deadly con-
sumption' often follows this crisis in
the lives of young women. Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills have saved thousands
of young girls from what might have
been life-long invalidism or early
death. They are a blood -builder of
unequalled; merit, strengthening weak
nerves and producinga liberal supply
of rich, red blood, which every girl
needs to sustain leer strength.
Over and over again Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills have proved their value to
women and girls whose health was
failing. Miss Jennie Gereau, St, Jer-
ome, Que.., says: "At the age of
eighteen my health was completely
chattered; I was suffering from
anaemia with all its attendant evils.
The trouble forced me to leave school
I suffered from headaches, was tired
and breathless at the least exertion.
I had no appetite, and my face and
lips were literally bloodless. A good
friend advised the use of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, and thanks to this great
medicine I am again enjoying good.
health, with a good appetite, good
color and a spirit of energy."
Every anaemic girl can be made
well and strong through the use of
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Sold by all

SIR JOHN SIMON.
Youngest Man in British Coalition
Government.
•
Hardly any barrister in Great Bri-
tain has attained such a high distinc-
tion at so early an age as Sir John
Simon, who had represented the
Crown in, most of the sensational
cane tried at the Old Bailey, and who
at the age of forty-one is Home Sec-
retary in the British Coalition Gov-
ernment.
When he was appointed Solicitor -
General, in 1910, Sir John was only
thirty-seven years of age, and such
was his reputation in the legal world
that at that time he held retainers
from almost every railway company
in the country—a unique record.
Three years later he stepped into.
the place, of Attorney -General, and
thus became head of the English Bar,
a proud position won, in the way
Englishmen like to, see honors won,
by sheer ability and hard work; for
Sir John Simon is the son of a Con-
gregational minister,and owes noth-
ing'-to:birth and influence.
Sir John, however, holds a some-
what humorous view of his profession,
judging by the remarks hemade when
entertained a few months ago by the
Manchester Law Students' Society.
Although,, on account of his taciturn-
ity, Sir John has often been referred
to by his friends, as "Silent Simon'
the description only partly fits, for
when the use of the tongue is neces-
sary, Sir John can use it with won-
derful effect.
He was induced, too, on one occa-
sion, to recallsome reminiscenses of
his youthful days. "My first political
recollection," he remarked, "is of
something that occurred—I think it
was in 1878 --when I was a very small
boy going to a dame's school at Moss
Side, Manchester. I remember well.
going out of the gate . of the little
house where my father lived then,
and as I went out, carrying my sat-
chel to school, one of his friends came
running down the street waving a
newspaper and shouting something to
my father. I think it was about one
of the first speeches Mr. Gladstone
made in the early days of his Mid-
lothian campaign, and I heard my
Mother calling me back because I was
wearing a blue tie. I can see her
little figure running upstairs and run-
ning down again with a red ribbon
which she tied around my neck.",
In the House there is no more popu-
lar man than Sir John Simon. He en-
joys the liking of both sides in poli-
ties, which is not always possible to
a politician of such keen intellect and
The Cloud Pictures.
"0 dear, there's the rain again,
just when I was sure the sun was
going to come out," complained little
John to his sister Ruth.
In some way his mother must have
heard his complaint, for there she
stood as suddenly as a fairy god-
mother, with, two saucers of water in
her hands.
"Get me the indelible ink," she
said. "You may bring two bottles,
the red and the black. And you may
get me two pens, and a block of five -
cent paper, for the rougher the paper
the better it will be."
"Oh, what art we going to play?"
cried Ruth.
• John and Ruth placed the saucers
side by side on the low window sill,
and then their mothertold them to
drop a,splash of ink into each sau-
cer. "Now give the water a quick
stir with the penholder, and while it
• is still in motion lay a piece of paper
lightly across the top of the saucer
and press down gently on the paper
until it just touches' the surface of
the water. Take your paper up.
quickly, and lay it out flat to dry.'!
The children soon held up their pa-
pers, and on them were the strangest
figures!
"Oh, how • pretty!" exclaimed
Ruth. "Mine looks just like the pie -
tures you see in the clouds."
"And see, I used the red ink, and
mine looks like a fiery dragon," said
John.
"After you have a little practicein
stirring the mixture," explained their
mother, "you can make some very
pretty things—horses, trees, or the
pictures like those that Jack Frost

Paper Money.
The Chinese anticipated what we
might think to be an essentially mod-
ern convenience — banknotes and
"paper money"—so-long ago as 2697
B.C.-4,600 years agol One such
banknote, issued nearly .8,300 • years
ago, is still preserved in the museum
at Petrograd. The Chinese called
their notes "flying money," or "con-
venient money." They bore the name
of the bank, date of issue, a number,
an official signature, its value in
words and figures, and, as an addi-
tional precaution against forgery and
as a help to the ignorant, a pictorial
representation in coins of an amount
equal to the face value of the note.
Holders of the notes were, by an
inscription, exhorted to "Produce all
you can; spend with economy.
It is stated that the notes were
printed in blue ink, and made of pa-
per- woven from the fibre of the mul-
berry tree.
These notes bore also a warning
inscription of the penalties of
counterfeiting.

He Was Disgusted.
They were about the roughest, raw-
est lot of reeruits the sergeant ever
had to tackle.
He worked hard at them for three
hours, and at last thought they were
getting into some sort of shape, so he
decided to test them.
"Right turn!" he barked. Then be-
fore they had ceased to move came
another order: -"Left turn!"
One yokel slowly left the ranks and
made off toward the barraclo room.
"Here, yopl" yelled the sergeant,
angrily, "where are you off to?"
"Ah've had enough," replied..the re-
cruit, in disgusted tone. "Tha' does-

Thus . in Australia, where service in

of 1, no recruits under the universal
compulsory service scheme, which
came into force on January 1, 1911,
could enter the citizen army before
July 1, 1912, and when Great Britain
declared war on Germany there were
only two "Trainee" classes, those of
1012-1913 and 1913-1914, the second
of which had only just completed
its recruit training in the ranks. The
balance of the Australasian forces
was composed of the small profes-
sional permanent forces, the militia,
to be gradually succeeded by the new
compulsorytrained troops and cer-
tain volunteer units.
Antipodean Problems.
The problem set to the military
authorities of the Dominion and of
the Commonwealth was, therefore,
to form a volunteer expeditionary
force as far as possible do the basis
of the existing organization. In New
Zealand the Government has not been
able to. apply the new compulsory
system as strictly as did the Austra-
lian military authorities, but when it
was stopped it retained a, relatively
larger number of men beforce in
the new Territorial or adult citizen
army. It was thus able to form an ex-
peditionary force containing a some-
what larger proportion of trained
men than did the Australian conting-
ent. The staff of' the New Zealand
force. also contained a relatively
larger number- of Imperial officers.
The organization of the force pre-
serves its connection with the exist -
leg citizen army with remarkable
thoroughness. It: has: not: been pos-
sible for the. Australian military au-
thorities to form so close a connec-
tion between' the adult citizen force
and the expeditionary troops. The
Territorial principle has been follow-
ed to
ollowed-so far as recruiting is concerned,
whenever this has been possible.
Officers and Men. .

very large majority have been pre-

A THRILLING AERIAL DUEL.
French Machine Defeats a German
Taube.
Among the many stories of aerial
adventure growing out of the war,
one of the best is told by Frederick
A. Talbot, in The World's Work for
June, in a comprehensive survey of
the advance in aviation. The hero is
an American aviator, Frederick C.
Hild, a . volunteer serving in . the
French Aviation Corps.
One day he was aloft upon a re-
connaissance. The weather was
cloudy, so that glimpses of what was
transpiring on the hostile territory be-
neath could only be obtained through
rifts in the banks of vapor. While
careering through one of these open
spaces he caught sight of -a -.Taube,
and, his machine being fleet, he in-
stantly gave chase. The Taube turn-
ed, and made for the cover of a bank
of clouds, with Hild in hot pursuit.
The latter worked his machine up to'
ninety miles an hour, and was just
about to dive into the cover when a
German biplane was seen emerging
from the cloud. The latter showed
no disposition to run. • It was armed

are those of the British or Indian
armies, and finally, a group of young
officers from the "West Point" of
the Dominion and the Common-
wealth, ,the , Royal Military College
of Australia at Duntroon.
All sorts and conditions of men are
to be found in the ranks of the con-
tingents. There are shepherds and
cattle men, owners of large estates,
professional and business men, work-
men and shopkeepers. The majority
of the Australian infantry of the
first contingent are urban, though
a new contingent is largely composed
of countryfolk. The mounted troops
are mostly country men, and include
a large number of "bushmen," many while Hild was exposed to a hot fire.

and then answered her helm so com-

It was a thrilling "nose -ending"

its descent that Hild and his observer
had to stand, leaning backwards, from
which precarious position he let drive

was so precipitate and vertical that

was concentrated upon Hild and his
'machine. `The American aviator was
caught at a disadvantage, because the
attack was unexpected and for the
reason that the German machine had
the commanding position manoeuvring
immediately over the French aero-
plane.
This diversion precipitated another
denouement. The Taube which had
dived into the bank of cloud, ascer-
taining that it was reinforced, now
turned round and showed fight. Hild

British Naval Expert Replies to
Criticism of Fleet.
Commander Carlyon Bellaire, the
great British llava, expert, replied to
the recent criticism of the British
navy appearing in American news-
papers suggesting that the navy
might try a little initiative occasion-
ally, sending submarines to Cux-
haven, Kiel .and Heligoland. Com-
mander Bellaire said:—
"The man who wrote that ought to
procure a scale chart and study it
for a few minutes with an American
naval officer at his elbow. Then he
might learn quite a lot. Cuxhaven
and Kiel are hidden away behind
miles of heavily mined sand banks,
as well as breakwaters. At Heligo-
hind'there' are bnly a few German
torpedo boats and submarines. In
naval warfare one goes by probabili-
ties, not possibilities. The British
-submarine wouldn't have one chance
in a million of getting 'behind the
stone walls where the .Germans hide
their fleet.
"It is .not a question of initiative.
What our submarines have done
scouting around Heligoland and
around the Dardanelles proves this.
It is just a question of common-sense
tactics.
"The German fleet only needs just
to come out to sea' and leave its
stonelocked fortresses for a few
hours in order to get all the trouble
it ever will be able to seek."

CRUSOE IN 33 LANGUAGES.
Defoe's Great Book for Readers All
Over the World.
Every nation has found delight in
the story of Robinson Crusoe. An
article in the Strand Magazine tells
that W. S. Lloyd of Philadelphia has
spent years in hunting for rare and
curious editions of the immortal' work.
His agents, it appears, have had
standing orders to buy up all editions
that may be found, and he even pos-
sesses examples of the story in Latin
and Greek. Thirty-three languages
are represented in Mr. Lloyd's collec-
tion, and these include Arabic, Per-
sian, Turkish and Hebrew.
The variety and curious illustra-
tions in these manifold editions are a
striking feature. There is a first folio
of Defoe's great book, however, which
has not found its way into Mr. Lloyd's
Encouragement.
Mischa Elman tells a story of his
early youth. He was playing at a
reception given by •a Russian prince,
and played Beethoven's "Kreutzer"

leaned forward, patted him on the
shoulder and said:

it's notwithstanding."
