Paleness denotes lack of blood and too little bloodusually results in jaded nerves, sleeplessness, headaches or neuralgia, Dr, Williams' Pink Pills are differ- ent from most other medicines—it is Impossible to take there and not feel better. Their whole mission is to make 'rich, reel blood. This new blood strengthens the nerves and gives va tality to the •vhole body. Concerning them Mrs. G. Cook, Bloor Street, To- ronto, says: "Two years ago I used Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for a nervous breakdown with the result that I have been well and strong ever since," You can get these Pills from any dealer in medicine or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Mediclne Co„ Brockville, Ont. Soul,of Cities Cities are influenced by climate, scenery, geology, site, Occupation, by the style, color, and employ- ment of materials and thus acquire a degree of personality, emphasized by the character of a dominent style, and to a less palpable extent by the sentiment of their inhabitants, says Lord Crawford of Balearres. Often in- deed towns are too incoherent to be personified, because like their inhabi- tants they lack countenance and defy characterization. Towns like people are vapid, neutral, or colorless, jumbles of contradiction as and aimlessness; but even so they may be typical of a race. And a town is a very secretive personage. At first we may think its character is easily defined; but be cautious. There are contradictions and diversities which may lead us astray in our as- sessment of man or city; and the city seldom reveals its character to the first impression. Bruges may sleep, Stirling may frown, Venic may enchant, Paris may smile; but one must search diligently, analyse a sequence of competing ele- ments, and even then it is often diffi- cult to detect fundimentals. The soul of a city may be Imprison- ed, lying concealed below the surface, yet so near it; ever striving to arise and grasp the full measure of its hope- fulness and endeavor. The Soul will always' be there, 'varying from one generation to another; at one moment thrilled by success and shining in the virtues of accomplished good; at an- other darkened by affliction when the victim of pestilence or the invader; 'or else -when shackled by the worst of all its enemies, apathy.

The treesbear all the year round, and the fruit is in const nt demand, Profits work out at about $1,.000 an acre. There has been much -publicity given to "pests," like the prickly pear and the biaekberry, which have laid waste vast areas in the Antipodes, that it is as well to consider the other side of the picture occasionally, For* the lemon, like the two "nuisances" men- tioned above, i3 an importation. On balance, the Australas'a:is have benefitted enormously by the experi- ments made in introducing new trees and plants. Oranges, like lemons, have proved a very profitable crop—and apple -growing is one of the great in- dustries "down under." Yet when apple trees were first planted in Aus- tralia most people thought th.1 venture was simply silly. MAKING A PEST USEFUL. They changed 'their minds later on —when the fruit began to appear, and the pioneers reaped, the harvest they deserved. The apples grown in West- ern Australia sold for $5 each, Accidental importations may also turn out well, though; naturally, we hear more about those that don't. A case of the first kind was the straw- berry clover, which obtained a footing in Australia in rather a curious way. A piano had been sent out from Ire- land. It was duly unpacked, and the packing was thrown out. But this KEEP TBE -'HAPPY BY KEP1NG THEM; WELL It is natural for 'children to be hap. py, active and full of tun.

Even a plant importation which has been condemned as a pest may be of some value.

Year -Round School Seen in Future New York—That vastly more of childhood will be spent within the four walls of the school of tomorrow is a prediction made an the basis of preseut trends by the research divi- sion of the U.S. National Education Association. Schooling,, in its opinion, will in the future begin earlier and will become also a year-round func- tion. Schools for babies, "co-operating with the home in establishing basic habits and emotional patterns which underlie a happy, useful life," are fore- seen as a permanent and general fea- ture of the educational landscape. Already in the last ten years, it is pointed out, nursery schools in the United States have multiplied almost fifty times over. Baffled Erudition Carolyn Wells, "dean of American detective -story writers," tells why she never had any higher education: "I went to high school in Rahway, New Jersey, and wanted to. go to Vassar, until I found out they had to make their own beds there. Then that was all off. I thought of Wellesley next, but I discovered that they had to make their beds there, too. So I de- cided not to go to college at all." "The world becomes too much a slave of the present mode, forgetting that there ever was any other." --Win- ston Churchill. c HEN PAI MES..• Two hours after eating WHAT many call "indigestion" is very often nothing but excess acid in the stomach.

A Difficult Point We all want our children to grow up into persons whose word can be be- lieved. We know that truthfulness is the foundation of alI honorable con- duct. Incidentally, it is ultimately the only condition of real success in busi- ness. So we are careful' to be truthful with our little ones, and to keep faith with them whenever we make them a promise. But we need not on that account be terribly upset when we first find out a child in some little variation of the truth, A great deal of unconscious cruelty may be perpetrated if we fail to realize that a child's intelligence is limited, and that it is incapable of thinking along grown-up lines, al- though it will imitate. Here is a case in point. Molly, aged six, was passionately fond of a Teddy - bear that had shared her joys and sor- rows from babyhood. Ile was very shabby and had lost one of his eyes, while one ear hung by a thread. Fail- ing to understand that lie was the more endeared to his owner by these accidents, an aunt presented Molly with a new and gorgeously colored monkey, Molly, as she had been taught to do, thanked the donor pret- tily; but the moment her aunt's back was turned she put the smart new- comer on the top of a bureau and hug- ged Teddy. Noticing that the new toy never ac- companied the child for a walk, the aunt was told "he was tired, and had to rest," or that "he had a cold." On being asked the straight question, "Don't yon like your new monkey?" Molly raised blue eyes in perfect in- nocence and said, "Oh, yes. He's per- fec'ly lovely . , but he isn't very well to -day." "An absolute lie, for she hates the thing," said her mother, worriedly, "and I can't decide whether ,to scold her for being deceitful or not" Most parents will praise Molly for the delicate way she tried to avoid giving pain, rather than blame her for the deceit. But is a hint to aunts to ascertain a small recipient's wishes before presenting gifts. For.children, like ourselves, have decided prefer- ences. * "Love is making sacrifices and til.inli- big it fun."—Dr. Will Durant, Mil,ard's Liniment aids tired feet.

The easterly wind had dried the land, and the crops were suffering from the drought, so the agriculturists of the parish waited on the minister with a request to "put up a word or twa for rain." The minister, who had a reputation for the efficacy of his supplications on previous occasions, heard the deputa- tion gravely, and, after a silence, dur- ing which he carefully scanned the horizon, replied: "A wull, but All bide - a wee till the win's ma.ir off the west!" —London Humorist.

Countless remedies are advertised for constipation. Many relieve for the moment but they are habit form- ing and must be continued. Others contain calomel and dangerous min- eral drugs, which remain in the us - tem, settle in the joints and cause aches and pains. Some are harsh purgatives which cramp and gripe and leave a depressed after effect. Avoid lubricating oils which only grease the intestines and encourage nature's machinery to become lazy. • A purely vegetable laxative such as Carter's Little Liver Pills, gently touches the liver, bile starts to flow, the bowels inove gently, the intestines are thoroughly cleansed and constipa- tion poisons pass away.
