The ,better blood that :comes with the. use of these pills strengthens every Vital organ and brings womanly health.. and happiness. This is fully proved by the case of Mrs, G, Wit- thuhu,• Arcola, Sask., who says:—"I am one of the many for whom . Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have done won - dors. About three years ago I was so. weak that -1 could not do my house- work, or even go about without feel- ing utterly worn out. The doctor sug- gested that an operation was the only thing that would help me, but this I refused to undergo, and I returned home almost in despair. My trouble was all due to the lingering change of life. At this stage Iread an advertise- ment of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and decided to try them, By the time I had used six boxes there was no doubt they were just what ,I needed, and under their continued use for some time my health was fully restored, and since that time I have been in the best of health.

Some persons think that a military school for boys means an enormous mischief to _their minds, as. ii' it en- couraged them to think only .of trench mortars, bombs, poison gas anti other devices for killing and maiming humanity. Opponents of the ` Royal Military College and similar training camps forget the main thing in such discip- line, ,which is that it teaches a youth to react immediately, without debate, •to a command. Elbert Hubbard in his little magazine ladled out a deal of mush, but he did hammer- home -a good idea when he wrote • that famous creed called "A Message to Garcia." That word was carried by a soldier who knew that the message was much more important than the messenger. So it is always. An institution is big- ger than any man that serves it. The minute the man thinks himself larger than his employment his usefulness is impaired or extinguished. Back talk is the bane of business.

Plants and trees themselves form heat. A cabbage covers its leaves with a fine coating of whitish wax to prevent its moisture being drawn up by the sun. Some trees also, spread their stems with wax to save the water they contain. The Virginia creeper could not live in the tangle of vegetation where.it first springs up and starts growing, so. it climbs up to get a full supply of light and ale vital to its life. And it climbs almost like a man. It pulls it - ,self up supporting itself by tendrils which serve as so many fingers. These "fingers" insert themselves into tiny cracks or they twine round twigs; .and as soon as their hold is as- sured the fingers swell out, wedging themselves into the cracks or stiffen- ing tiffening themselves round the twigs until they have secured a support for the long runner.
