Taxes the Health of Thousands
of Young Girls
In the "teeii-agQ" years when shoo
or office work is exacting and outside
activities use up so much energy,
many girls undermine their health and
spoil their happiness for years to
come,
At such= a time Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills will be found most valuable.
They purify and enrich the blood;
build up the nerve cells and correct
run-down conditions. Concerning them
'Miss Margaret Torrey, Indian Road,
Toronto, Ont, says: "When I was at-
tending high school I suffered a com-
plete breakdown. My heart would pal-
pitate at the least exertion; I could
not sleep and nothing I ate agreed
with ane. I began taking Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills and before long I gained
In weight and every distressing symp-
tom left me.'
• Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by
medicine dealers or by mai; at 50
cents a box from The Dr. Williams'
Co., Brockville, Out.
The Japanese Way
It is said that the Japanese work-
ing-class crowd is the only one in the
world from which there is no odour.
When one learns about their social
habits and about the important part
the soap and water bath plays in the
daily life or the very poorest in that
country, one is not surprised. The
natives are scrupulously clean, and
every opportunity is given them to
be so.
There are many public baths, just
vats sunk in the ground; but before
using the community bath they soap
thoroughly and wash from little
wooden tubs hard by. The Jap-
anese have no false modesty; men
and women, boys and girls, all bath
at the same tine—a bamboo pole
across the bathing house marks the
dividing line for the sexes. takes
In country inns washing
place in the entrance hall, where, as
a rule, are found a wooden trough
and a number of brass basins, to-
gether with stubby brushes.
But the Japanese does not stop at
washing his body clean; he is very
particular: about his garments, and
after a long journey a rickshaw run-
ner will take the opportunity when
resting of not only having a bath,
but of washing his clothes. Spread-
ing them out on boards, he soaps,
scrubs, and rinses them, and if they
are not sufficiently dry for the re-
turn run lie brings out a second suit
from under the seat ot the rickshaw
and is as spick and span as when he
started in the rning: _ `Tit Bits.'

Retires
Cold in the head is very common at
this' time of year, especially in the
very young. Neglect of a cold is prone
to lead to serious consequences. To
relieve all congestion of the system
is the first step in treating a cold,
whether in infants or adults. For the
veryyoung, Baby's Own Tablets are the
ideal means of doing this. Containing
no narcotic or other harmful drugs
they soothe the child's fretfulness, re-
lieve its suffering and ensure conval-
escence.
Baby's Own Tablets are without an
equal for relieving indigestion, con-
stipation and colic. They check diar-
rhoea; break up colds and simple fev-
ers; promote health -giving sleep and
make the dreaded taething period
easy. They are sold by all medicine
dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box

Discovers Control Seat
Of Glandular Activities
The "tuber cinereum," a small pro-
jection front, the base of the brain, has
been discovered, so he believes, to be
the seat of the control for gland activi-
ties by Professor L. O. Morgan, of the
University of Cincinnati, who hers been
studying this organ in the brains of
dogs. His findings were reported as
including the discovery of certain
groups of living cells which control
the secretion of body chemicals by the
varions glands, including the adrenal
glands and the 'thyroid glands.
Professor Morgan has found this or-
gan in the body of rats and even men
to be full of these cells. He recalls
that experts have already discovered
that disease or disturbance of this
organ often causes body changes, hot 11.• and cold flashes, changes in blood pres-
sure and changes in eye pupil size,
which were thought to be controlled
by glandular activity.
Tliis brain cell activity indirectly
guides almost every bodily function
through the direct control of these
functions by gland chemicals seut out
in the blood like written messages
carrying orders to the many organs of
the body.
