Fully nine -tenths of ail the minor ills of childhood have their root in indigtstion. ,There is no medicine for little. ones • too equal Baby's Own Tablets n relieving this trouble. They have proved of benefit in thousands of homes. Concerning them Mrs. Jos. Lunette, Immaculate Conception, Que., writes; "My baby i was a great sufferer from indigestion,' but the Tablets soon set her right, and now I woould not be without them." Baby's Own Tablets are sold by medi- cine dealers or by mail at e5 cents a box from The Dr. ,.Williams' Medicine • Co., Brockville, Ont. 4, • Scene of Its Causes and flow Re- lief May be Obtained. Many people suffer from nervous in- digestion. The commonest causes are worry, over -work, lack of exercise, or a general run down condition of the system. It is a disease of the nerves rather than of the digestive organs, and is corected by giving needed nour- ishment to the nervous eystena and building up the blood. The treatment consists largely in rest, recreation and the use of a true tonic such as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. In addition, the patient should follow a careful diet, and avoid coffee arid stimulants, these being unsuitable for nervous people: As otte's nerves rely for nourishment upon the blood, the latter must be euilt up and made rich and pure, which is just what Dr, Wil- liams' Pink Pills do. If there is loss of weight and pallor, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are eepecially helpful. Mrs. Adolphu.s Villeneuve, R.R. NC, 2, Apple Hill, tells as follows how she obtained rellef:—"I was so bad with nervous indigestion that I -could not digeet anything I took, and as a con- sequence was a great sufferer. I doc- tored for foir months, but seemed to be getting worse instead of better. 1 lost strength to such an extent that 1 could hardly go about. Then my mother came to dee me, and urged Ase to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I followed her advice and got a supply at once: • After taking a few boxes I felt iny strength returning, and I con- tinued their use, until at the end of a few months I could eat anything I de- sired, had regained my old time health and strength, and was in. every way a well woman. I am so. thankful for what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills did for me that I always advise their use, when any of my friendare run down or ailing." You can get these pills from any .medicine dealer or by mail at 60c a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Cb., Brockville, Ont. • Upper or Lower?. ; The man, says the Epworth.

"What's the difference?"' asked the "A difference of fifty cents in this case," replied the agent. "The lower is higher than the upper. The higher price is for the lower. If you want it lower, you'll have to .go higher. We sell the upper 'weer than the lower. In other weeds, the. higher the lower. Most people don't like the upper, al- though it is 'lower on account of ite being higher: When you occupy an' upper you have to get up to go to bed and get „down when you get up. You can have the lower if you pay higher. the upper is lower than the lower be- cause it is higher.

Tea growers have found from experi- ence that it is necessary immediately to pack tea in air -tight metal -lined chests, to preserve the flavor and. good- ness of the leaf.
