Mrs. Eugene Cadarette, Amherstburg, Ont., says: "I suffered for a long time from dizzi- ness, pain in the back and sick head- ache, and nothing I teols did me any good until I began Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. These cured me after taking six boxes and I now feel better than ever I did in my life.

Attention has been again focussed on the sacrifices of the British peerage in the war by the death at the front of Lord Desmond Fitzerald, of the Trials Guards, the brother and heir presump-, • tive of the Duke of Leinster. Lord Desmond is the 48th heir to a peer- age to fall in the present War and his case is only specially notehlfe from the fact that the peerage which he would have inherited had he lived is one of the moat historic in the United Kingdom. He would have be- come the premier duke, marquis and earl in Ireland and he would have in- herited one of the few 'existing peer- ages that can be traced back without a break to the Norman conqueet. His elder brother! the Duke of Leinster, is unmarrmd and in poor health and the succession now clevolvee on a younger brother, Lord Edward Fitzgerald, who a few years ago mar- ried Mise May Etheridge, a mutical comedy actress. Lady Edward Fitz- gerald will be the first musical, comedy duchess, if her husband lives to in- herit. Ho is also an officer serv- ing at the front, but even if he should fall the succession in this ease is safe, for he lute an infant son, born in 1914, who in the natural course of events will one day be Duke of Leinster. — LIFE IN THE TRENCHES. Illustrations of What the Men Have to Put Up With. The trench warfare in France has been responsible for some remarkable horrors. There have been plagues of bloated flies, which are produced in millions by.a few hours' sunshine. In some districts, too, there have been plagues of voles, due no doubt to the non -cultivation of the fields, which fall into the trenches by scores, are and domestic clip of the country to Which they will be shipped. Over the whole subject of prices there is the nightmare of the embar- go. Dealers and growers alike re- member only too vividly the, great drop in prices of wool last year in Canada when the Canadian govern- ment placed an absolute embargo on the exportatioa of. wool to any coun- try except the British postessions, and they, also remember the immediate rise of prices on wool as soon as the government rnodified the embargo, and allowed wool to be exported to cer- tain specified countries under a per- mit. The same was true in Austra- lia. While an absolute embargo was in effect; there was simply a competis tion for the Australian wool among English buyers, at which time wool brought fair prices, but as soon as the embargo was lifted allowing ex- portation to the States, prices took a ' trete, New York.

Very similar conditions exist in the Canadian wool situation to -day. Stat- istics show that on January. 1,-1916, there were on hand in Canada over 3,000,000 pounds of wool. This is equal to about one quarter of the an- nual clip of Canada. Prices on Can- adian wool have been so high that Canadian manufacturers have found that they could purchase foreign wools ef similar grades, and we can natur- ally expect that the Canadian menu- factnrer will continue to use his stock on hand, and to import foreign woole as lohg as possible, or until the price of Canadian wools have adjusted themselves so that he may purchase our native wool as cheap tie the foreign itnportatione.
