Their effect may be noticed in nervous headatilios,:fickle appetite, indigestion, pains in the side or back, ..and a sallow 'complexion. To those afflicted in this, way Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, by improving and purifying the - blood, bring speedy relief. Among thousands of weak women who have *elated and proved. the merles of this medicine is. Mrs. Gustave Hutt, Bruxel- les, Man., who says: --"It is with pro- - found thanks that 1 write to• tell you what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have done for me, Before I began • taking these pills l' was weak, and my blood thin and watery. I was so thin that I looked like a skeleton. ,I was trou- bied with headaches put indigestion, .Sid not sleep well, and was terribly constipated, I decided to try Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills and I soon found that they were Just What I needed, Un- der their use my appetite returned, my food digested properly, and I slept bet- ter at night, and gained In flesh as well 40 strength. The result is (tat now 1 am a perfectly healthy woman, and there is no doubt that it is due to the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, a sup- ply of which I now always keep in the house, and I would advise other' wo- men to die the same." You can get these pilin through any dealer in medicine, or by mail at GO cents a box from The Dr, Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Sir Walter Raleigh. A braver soldier, a mere daring ex- plorer, or more courtly gentleman never lived than 'Walter Raleigh, knight and author. You all know the story of his intro- duction to the Queen Elizabeth, She was walking with her courtiers front the royal barge, when she came to a place 'se damp. and muddy that she hesitated as. to where to step. Releign immediately threw down his line embroidered cloak for her miajee- ty's dainty feet to step upon, and from that time, as long as she lived, the queen gave him her help and her es- ieem. But he wlit-Something besides a gal- lant courtier. He proved himself a brave soldier on land and sea, in wens in the Netherlands and against the Spanish Armada, In his. youth he crossed the Atlantic with his brother, the famous Sir Humphrey Gilbert, and afterward he lent ships out which visited our Virginian and North Caro- linian shores, from which two new strange plants were carried back for English rise. These were tobacco and potatoes, .— Having heard wonderful stories of the gold in lands still further aouth, he sailed away to the far west, finding little gold, but a strange, rich country, of which he wrote a most glowing des- cription on his return. The queen, who had been so gra friend to him, died, and in a change of eule:e unjust suspicions were aroused. Sir Walter was charged with trying to place another person on the throne, tried and sentenced to death, but led, instead, to the prison where he spent twelve long years. It was then he showed kis brave heamt as well as on the battle -field, and 11 he renewed his old studies, planning and. beginning the great work, which he never: was. to carry out.: "The His. .tory of the World." But his adventures were not yet over. Nowhere, in ail the outside world, could they find the .man they Wanted, so they came to the busy Scholar in his prison -cull and offered him his liberty if he would only command an expedf don to search for gold mines in the Sar New World, Ile )went, of course, with the old vigor and daring, but gold -mines• are not easily found, and they sailed back without having met with much success. .And then what did .the strong man do? Did lie travel again over far seas, or give his wisdom to affairs of gov- ernment, or even in hie prison knish with' ready pen the great volumes be had planned? He died' on the scaffold, ander the old charge of treason so long proved Ge false, Ile met death with the courage • of that brave heart which had never Dr. failed him; leaving behind not only what he wrote, but the story of his whole brilliant life, so full of advert- ture and bravery.

So many cases 'of prostration In animals come to our notice ()urine the summer months that a word on this subject may .tot be out of place. There are two types of stroke, 0810- siroke,'and heatstroke. Sunstroke in Horses is caused by the sun's rays striking the back of the head while the animal pulls a heavy loadinthe clot eun, It is also caused by leaving the horse standing in the hot sun, after heavy work, It 00108s On suddenly, the animal collapsing and usually be- coming unconscious,% Prevention:—Keep a wet sponge on -torso's head or bathe frequently with cold water, Give frequent rests lu the shed, when possible. Remember the weather is hot and the horse feels it as much as you do. You lighten your work in the sun as much .as possible in the hot weather. Do the same for your hone. Do not hurley or worry him, and help him fight the handicap ot hot weather by being easy with him, Treatment: --If the horse •collapses, send for a veterinary, In the mean- time first aid treatment consists of wholesale use of colt] water from head to foot. Do not apply a quantity local- ly, but make it wholesale. Beep it up tillhorse recovers. Heatstroke may come en without animal having been touched by the sun. It is caused by standing in stables, when the atmosphere is close, humid and damp. Prevention:—Iee8p the horse in the yard 12 stable is very.small and close, only in a shady place. Give plenty of water to drink, and use cold wattle 011; head. Be sure it has a comfortable place to lie down. A. night spent in the atmosphere of a small ill -ventilated' stable, reeking of ammonia from lack of cleaning, utterly unfits the animal f for work. It is better in the open, Treatment: --Sano as Sunstroke. ' Dogs and cats and small animals can be dipped in a tub of water. This 1 is the best restorative, The best remedial agent for hot weatllee is cold water,internal and iln external. Beep a tub where dogs may dip several times daily. It will pre vent trouble.

Just tip to think of the immense amount of work such a task as setting out all these to. mato plants must mean. It Is "a bit of a Staggerer," too, to be told that the official returns of the rail- ways show that 3,250,000 baskets of ripe tomatoes were exported to the British Isles from Guernsey alone last year. A large portion of these supplies does not go to Covent Garden, London, but Is sent direct to Manchester, Brie, tel, Leeds, Glasgow, and Preston, which aro all distributing centres for their respective districts. The tomato season in the Channel Islands goes through three separate phases. All the earliest crop is grown in a hot -house, and is "forced" Just like rhubarb, It Is planted Just after Christmas, and the fruit can be picked from the end of March to the end of June. The second season, that of the cold -house, extends from June to De- cember, e cember, whilst the third 00 out -of- doors tomato crop, is gathered from the end of August to December.
