WHEN FORTY-FIVE
A Critical Period When Pr, WiI-
lia1ns' Pink ,finis Are a Real
Blessing,
At ep.eeial periods a woman needs e
nl.edieine W regulate her blood supply,
or her ;110 will be a rpund of pain and
suffering. It is at such, times that Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills are worth their
weight in gold, for theymelte the;now
rich blood that banishes the symptoms
of distress that only women know.
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. I am writing this letter in
the hope that it may induce some
ether suffering woman to use Dr. Wil -
/lams'. Pink Pills and 'regain her.

Back Talk.
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

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.
