One of the commonest forms of ner- vous trouble that afflicts young chil- dren is St. Vitus dance. This is be- cause of the great demand made on the body by growth and development, together with the added strain caused by study. It is when these demands become so great that they impoverish the blood, and the nerves fail to re- ceive their full supply of nourishment that St. Vitus dance develops. The remarkable success of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in curing St. Vitus dance should lead parents to give this great blood -building medicine to their chil- dren at the first signs of the approach of the trouble. Pallor, listlessness, inattention, restlessness and irritabil Ity are all symptoms which early show that the blood and nerves are failing to meet the demand upon them. Here is proof of the great value of Dr. Williams'Pink Pills in cases of this, kind. Mrs. Alfred Sochner, R.R. No. '5, Dunnville, Ont., says: "Our ten- year -old daughter, Violet, suffered very severely from St. Vitus dance. The trouble came on so gradually that we were not alarmed until it affected her legs and arms, which would twitch and jerk to such an extent that she. could scarcely walk and could not hold anything in her hands steadily. She suffered for about five months before we begar giving her Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, but she had not taken these. long before we found that they were the right medicine, and after she had. taken nine boxes she rad fully recov- ered her former health and strength. I can strongly recoinmend Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills to every parent hav- ing a child suffering from St. Vitus dance or any form of nervousness." In troubles of this kind no .other medicine has met with such success as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. You can get these Pills through any medicine deal- er or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2,50 from The Dr. Wil - Hams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Been Deceived.

Can Their Treachery and Awful Crimes Be Forgotten. The following. 'letter, referring to such an extremely important matter, which appeared recently an the To- ronto Daily World, is given in full: Editor World: Your article "Never Again Must Germany Come Back," is most opportune. The notorious Dern burg is already talking peace and says their hate is only artificial, and thinks that mutual interests will make us forget their treachery, their abomi- nable crimes, cutting off the hands of women and children, murdering the wounded, roasting captives alive, cru- cifying Canadians, and committing outrages too horrible to print. Germany must be so dismembered that she and her kultur shall never again menace civilization. Her great prosperity and resources are largely the result of England's trade policy. England has permitted Germany to buy at the same price as English con- sumers 12,000,000 on-sumers.12,000,000 tons of coal (1913) annually, which supplied her factor- ies, warships, and forged Krupp guns. England also sold her (1913) £15,000,- 000 worth of raw wool' and yarns. Germany prospered by selling finished goods to England for twice the amount of her imports from Britain. If we give her another chance to recuperate and make other alliances, in a few years she would repeat the Belgian atrocities in England and burn London as they have always threatened to do. John Bull, an influential London weekly, with a circulation of nearly a. million, has sounded the tocsin: After the war the Vendetta. Wemust have a Solomon League and Covenant, to which every British subject should subscribe for the protection of himself and descendants: Never to have any intercourse with a German, either social or commer- cial. Never to buy from or sell to a Ger- man. Never permit a German article in his house. Never to deal with' a merchant who keeps a single article of German man- ufacture in his store. Never to travel in Germany nor per- mit any of his family to visit there. Permit no Germans to enter 'Canada except on higher terms than Chinese— a head tax of $1,000. The British Empire can do without German trade; the loss to Germany of the British Empire's trade will be worse than the loss of her whole fleet annually. For 43 years the French refused to list German securities on their mar- kets, have abstained from visiting or trading with Germany, and we can do the same. Let us follow the example of our gallant allies. "Delenda Est Ger- mania." J. ENOCH THOMPSON. Toronto, 14th June, 1915. _meq, This Man Hires, a Gardener. "Haven't you any perennials in your garden?"

Constantly on their feet, attending to the wants of a large and exacting, family, women often break down with nervous exhaustion. In the stores, factories, and on a farm are weak, ailing women, drag- ged down with torturing backache and bearing down pains. Such suffering isn't natural) but. it's dangerous, because due to 'thseas-. ed kidneys. The dizziness, insomnia, deranged menses and other symptoms of, kid- ney complaint can't cure themselves, they require the assistance of Dr. Hamilton's Pills which go direct to the seat of the trouble. To give vitality and power to the kidneys, to lend aid to the bladder and liver, to free the blood of poisons, probably there is no remedy so suc- cessful as Dr. Ilamilton's Pills. For all womanly irregularities their merit is well known. Because of their mild, soothing, and healing effect, Dr. Hamilton's Pills are safe, and are recommended for girls and women of all ages. 25 cents per box at all dealers.

Professor Sorley, of Cambridge University, has been engaged in de- livering a course of Gifford Lectures on "Ethics and Theism" at Marischal College, Aberdeen. In one of his lec- tures he laid downhis own position inthe following words:— He ords:He would hazard the statement that an imperfect world was neces- sary for the production and training of moral beings. A world of com- pletely unerring, finite beings creat- ed and maintained so by the condi- tions of their life would be a world. of marionettes. Not such were the beings whom God was conceived to have created for communion with Himself. Those spirits must fight their way upwards from the lowest beginnings. In this progress they had to attain reason and freedom so that the good might be known and chosen, and, tried by every kind of circumstance, to find and assimilate. the values which could transform the world and make themselves fit for the higher spiritual life. This meant that it was possible to regard God as the author and Ruler of the world as it appeared in space and time, and at the same time to hold that the moral values of which they were con- scious and the moral ideal which they had come to comprehend with increas- ing clearness expressed His nature. On the view which had just been sug- gested they would explain all reality, nature and persons, laws and values, as depending on a Supreme Mind whose purpose was being unfolded in the history of the world. d, SHOULD HAVE HAD CONVOYS. Three Ways to Save Lives on the Lusitania. The loss of the Lusitania might have been avoided, or the loss of life much minimized, according to Hud- son Maxim, inventor of high explo- sives and authority on warfare, if three methods of protection hail been utilized. He says( "In the first place, there should have been a convoy of torpedo: boat de stroyers. A protective convoy should have patrolled the course of the ship and blown out of the water any submarine that dared to show a con- ning tower. "In the second place, torpedo -nets might have been used. Itis a popu- lar belief that these can only be used when a ship is at anchor, and in that way they have been used on warships for years. A protective screen may be constructed for a liner which would 'extend below the water line and explode any torpedo which came in contact with it before it could reach the side of the ship. Such a screen would lower the speed of the ship perhaps one-half, but when you think that the Lusitania was struck when proceeding slowly you can see that a net could have been carried without reducing her speed any fur- ther than it was already. "The third method of protection is rather a way of saving lives after the ship has been struck. There should be on every steamer self- launching rafts that would float the minute the water reached them. It is certain that a number of rafts of this kind would have saved many lives in the loss of the Titanic, of the Tour - nine, and of the Lusitania." A GOOD THING When • It Conies Along Don't Let It Get Away From You. "I reall'y feel that it is hardly possi- ble to say too much in favor of Grape - Nuts as a health food," writes a lady. "For 9 or 10 years I had suffered from indigestion and chronic constipa- tion„ caused by the continued use of coffee and rich, heavy foods. My ail- ments made my life so wretched that I was eager to try anything that held. out a promise of help. And that is how I happened to buy a package of Grape -Nuts food last spring. "That ended my experiments. For in Grape Nuts I found exactly what I wanted and needed. From the day I began to use it I noticed an improve- ment, and in a very few weeks I found lay health was being restored. 'My digestive apparatus now works perfectly, and chronic constipation has been entirely relieved. I have gained in weight materially, and life is, 'a very pleasant thing to me so long as I use Grape -Nuts once or twice a day. I have found by experiment that if I leave it off for a few days my health. suffers. "A physician in our town has great success in treating stomach troubles,' and: the secret of it is that he puts his patient on Grape -Nuts food—it al- ways brings back the power of diges- tion." — Name given by Canadian Postum Co., Windsor, Ont.

Britain's •participation in the -war by land means much more to the allies than the number of miles she. is holding at the front would indi- cate. The various land fronts of the belligerents in the great war make a total mileage of 1,867 miles, of which the British army occupies a front of 31 miles. The Germans, have the longest land front, of which part is opposed to the Russian ` and the remainder to the French, British and Belgian armies, The Russians, who come next to the Germans in point of mileage, maintain contact with the enemy for 1,056 miles, and are opposed to all three nations in combination against the allies. Things to Consider. In considering the 31 miles held by the British force, the natureof the country held and the character ofthe fighting must be considered. Along certain parts of the French line, as around Belfort and Epinal, strongly -fortified areas render the passage of the Germans almost im- possible, and the task of the French is correspondingly easier. At other points, as in the Vosges and the Argonne, French and Germans op- pose one another only at certain strategic points, and in such places there is no connected fighting ' line, but only a discontinuous line of small detached bodies of troops struggling for points of vantage. British Face Great Odds. With the British force, however, this is not.so. Every inch of the groundis held only by the severest attack and counter-attack. The ground is quite open and exposed, and is constantly swept by artillery and machine-gun fire. Also, a short time ago the German attempt to break the opposing line ' was made and repulsed along the British front at Ypres, and before that the British had held, in the face of overwhelm- ing numbers, the positions along the Aisne, where the Germans were ex- pecting to retrieve partly the rush back from Paris. So that it will readily be conceded that the holding of this 31 miles means the holding of a storm -beaten bastion which meets the full force of the gale. Land Fighting Lines. The following table shows the ex- tent of the land fighting lines of the warring powers: Germans. Miles. Western front 592 Polish front 600 1,092 Austrians. Austro -Russian front 218 Servian front 356 574 Russians. Polish and Austrian front 866 French Western front 543 Servian and Montenegrin. Austrian front ... 218 Turks. Black Sea territory near Erze- rum . ... .. ........... 200 British Western front 31 Belgian Western front 17 Britain's Value on Sea. The great value of Britain's parti- cipation in the war is more readily appreciated when the extent of the sea fronts defended by the allies are considered. The British fleets alone protect a sea frontier of over 30,000 nines. France, which comes next, has a total—with her colonies —of some 5,400 miles. Keeps Open the Oceans. In order properly to visualise the great part the British Empire is playing in the present war, however, it is necessary to bear in mind that not only does the British navy pro- tect our own sea frontiers, but it also keeps open the great ocean trade routes by which the ships of all the friendly and neutral nations can bring the supplies necessary for their well-being. Have Small Sea Fronts. Germany and Austria have rela- tively very small sea fronts to pro- tect -700. and 390 miles respectively. The Austrian sea front is, of course, confined td' the Adriatic Sea, whilst the German colonies having, since the beginning of the war, been aban- doned by the German naval authori- ties, the sea front to be protected is correspondingly reduced. Sea Fronts of the Powers. The following figures represent the sea fronts of the belligerents: British Empire. Miles.

At a meeting at which a minister, 'who is short in, stature, was to speak, the chairman, endeavoring to be witty, observed that he, was some- what disappointed about the mini- ster's'' physical proportions: "I had heard so much about Mr.—," he said, "that I naturally expected to meet a : big man in every sense, but —" Many a ' one would have been upset by such an unfortunate begin- ning to the proceedings, hut not so the minister. "I, am grieved to find," he said, with a mock seriousness, "that your chairman is disappointed in my size, but this is owing to the way you •have here of measuring a man. In Ayrshire, where I come from, we measure a man from his chin up, but you evidently measure him from is chin dgwn!" I' FREIGHT SERVICE TO RUSSIA C.P.R. Will Represent the Russian Government. The traffic arrangement by which the C.P.R. win represent the Rus- sian Government in providing- for through freight services from the Dominion to Russia. .by the Trans- Siberian Railway and the Russian Volunteer Fleet, which is an auxiliary of the railway, is an amplification of the connection which the company has sustained with the Trans-Siber- ian Railway, which is a state-owned system. The Company has offices in Moscow and Petrograd in which it does business, the only railway on this continent to have such offices in Russia. If it would seem- strange that the Company should do business in either city, it need only be men- tioned that the C.P.R. is the only railway in America which is a mem- ber of the Round the World Confer- ence of which the executive of the Trans-Siberian Railway is a chief element, The Canadian Pacific, in its round -the -world tours, uses, of course, the Trans-Siberian Railway line, which the average Russian al- ways calls the "Transcontinental" line—this being the notion the sys- tem conveys to his mind.
