Red Cow and Her Friends, Peter McArthur, welt -known to near- ly everyone in this part of Ontario as •a sort of rural humorous philosopher has just published a book, "The Red 'Cow. and Her Friends." J, M, Dent & Sons, Toronto, Price $1.50, Mr. Mc- Arthur -wields a prolific pen in a num- ber of influential journals and has made himself famous through the length and breadth of Canada by telling people in a humorous -serious strain of the simple charms of rural life. This is the theme in Itis present volume, "The Red Cow" which with appropriate and attractive decorative Illustrations will appeal to all lovers of farm country life. The Literary position to which this author has attained in the eyes of his country- men is seen in the- following eulogy front a recent issue of the Montreal Journal of Commerce:—"Canada has never produced a Carlyle, an Emerson, n Thoreau, or 'a Bret Harte, but in Peter McArthur she has produced all four with a few additions thrown in."

Will Have Easter Holidays, it will be pleasing news to most school children to know that they will be able to enjoy their usual ten I days vacation at Easter. It was first thought that owing to such havoc be- ing wrought in the school year by the influenza that the pupils would be asked to utilize certain of the holidays to make up for lost time, but the De- puty Minister of Educaion of Ontario say's the law would have to be changed in order to cut out the usual holiday season, A poultry conference was recently held in Ottawa with the object of stim- ulating and extending the poultry in- dustry. One of.the chief resolutions put through was for the payment of eggs on quality basis and that no person, firm, corporation or association shall receive or demand payment for bad eggs, Do You Look at It This Way? The publisher of ,a gaper must live as well as the clothier, the dry golds man or the grocer, To get the wherewithal to live he has one Heng to sell and another to rent. Ile sells his paper and he rents the ::pace in his columns: these are his principal sources of income, and can anyone inform us why he is expected to give either away? Ile can, of course, do so if he chooses and as it matter of fact he does furnish a good deal of his space rent-free But it does not follow that he ought to be expected to du so as a matter of course, and further, when once . he does it ought to be recognized as a coutribut_ ion just aS nnrch as tate sugar or coffee given by the grocer. But it is not generally looked at in that light, yet everybody knows that the very exis- tence of a newspaper depends upon the selling of the paper and the rent of the Space as much as a merchant's Success depends on the sale of his goods. There is just as much reason for the merchant giving his goods away free as there is for the publisher. THE SPRING TONIC FOR PALE, THIN PEOPLE If You Want to Gain in Weight and Recover Your Appetite, Energy and Ambition, Try This Well Known Remedy With the passing of winter many people feel weak, depressed and easily tired. The body lacks that vital force and. energy which pure blood alone can give.

A COMPLETE WRECK Mrs. C, Forsythe, R, R, No. 2, Fish- ervilie, Ont„ says: "At the age of fourteen my daughter Viola was feel; ing very much run down in the spring, Then she was attacked with whoop- ing cough which left her a complete wreck. She had no appetite, could not sleep well nights and was subject to chills which sometimes kept her in bed for the day. Site was doctoring steadily. hurt not apparently getting the least benefit, and I naturally grew very anxious. One of my neighbors suggested giving her Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and 1 got a box. When she began using the pills site weighted only 87 pounds. Before the box was all gone 1 sent and got she more boxes, and under their use she , constantly grew stronger, Her appetite improv- ed, the color came back to her cheeks, she could sleep well, and feels and looks like a different person, and with all this while using the pills she gain- ed 20 pounds in weight," A SALLOW COMPLEXION. 'Miss Gladys Marshall, Chatham, Ont., says: "i sttifered from nervous- ness and my blood was in a very poor condition, My face broke out in pim- ples and any complexion was very sallow. I took doctor's medicine but without beneficial results, I was feel- ing much discouraged when a friend recommended br. W!iliatis' Pink NHS. I used in all six boxes, and was ovet'- joyed to find that hay complexion itad become quite clear, pimples had dis- appeared, nay, nerves were strengthen- ed and my otd,ttime health and anibi. tion returned.

When she began /using the pills she weighed only 103 pounds and when she discontinued their use she weighed 137 pounds, For all weak people I think there is no medicine can equal Dr. Williams' Pink Pills," A SPRING COLD Mrs, Chas. Winegarden, Delhi, Ont., says: "Last spring tiny daughter Ruby was taken with a ball cold. She seem- ed weak, had a constant ilais in her side, grew pale, and as the remedies usually used in cases of this kind did not hell her tv feared she as g o#n i e s 1v g g into a decline, 1 decided to give her Dr, Williams' Pink Pills and got six Boxes, Before sit,; had used them all, She was again well and strong, The cough had loft her, and she had a good appetite, the paint in her side disap- peared, and a trice rosy color had re- turned to her elt;eeks, t have therefore mush to sneak warml. y in praise raise of Dn Williams'Pink Pius,' Notwithstanding the increased cost of all drugs, there has been no change i33 the price of our Dr. Willianis' Pink Pills.
