Thin, pale girls lack the power of re- sistance to disease that rich, real blood gives. Neryous breakdown is the of thin blood. So is indigestion,' headaches, backaches and many other troubles. Girls suffering from thin,. impure blood need just the help Dr. Williams' Pink Pills can give. For many Years Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have been a workafamous blood -build, er and nerve restorer. They actually' make new, rich, red blood which im parts new 'vigor andlife to all the or- gans of the body. Their first effect, is usually shown by an improved appe- tite; then the spirits revive and rest - baseness at night gives way to health restoring sleep. For sufferers from anaemia, nervousness, general weak- ness or physloal exhaustion Dr. Wil- e llama' Pink Pills are a restorative of. the utmost value. This is proved by the experience of Miss Sarah A. Mc- alachern, R.R. 3, Brule, N.S., who says: —"About three years ago I became very weak and nervous. 1 bad pains In my side and back. I also had fre- quent pains in the back of my head and neck, I was very pale and very weak. I had attacks of nervous ir- ritability, and at times I was so ner- nous that life seemed hardly worth liv- ing. While in this condition a friend strongly advised me to take Dr, Wil- liams' Pink Pills. I began'taking these pills and used them for about two: months with the result that there was such an improvement in my condition that friends 'would ask me what I was taking, and I was only too glad to tell them it was Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I am now enjoying good health- and am glad to give this statement for the benefit it may be to some other suf- ferer." You can get these pills from any medicine dealer or by trail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. French Girls Ban Slang to Save Native Tongue.

This is what he told the court when he was brought before it, tattered, battered and band- aged, accused of trespass, breaking and entering, cruelty to animals and assault.

I was get- ting a terrible beating from some one. I tried to protect myself, and couldn't. I knew some vicious animal around there was going to kill' me. We strug- gled. We went down together. We hung on. I knew I would be killed if I didn't fight. I was knocked against the side of the wail. We rolled on the floor. I had hold of something. I wouldn't let go. If I did, I was done. I had him by the neck. I was weak and frightened. I finally noticed the thing I was fighting was limp." It was limp in death. His terrifying assailant was "Governor," a 250 -pound cock ostrich belonging to the Franklin Park Zoo. Though the chances of an unarmed man against an ostrich are reckoned as no more than one to twenty-five, this young man had had the extraordinary luck in the very be- ginning o fthe fight to .seize it by the neck and that at the one point of the .entire sinewy and snakelike length which is sufficiently susceptible of compression to permit closing the windpipe. Granting even that strangle hold, but for the darkness, which kept the infuriated bird from delivering its deadly kicks with precision, it is doubtful that the man could have come off victor. Poor Governor! He was only doing his best to overcome an unwarranted intruder. Few fighting male ostriches have so good an excuse. Never really domesticated, they are always likely to he vicious; carelessness on an os- trich farm may lead to maiming or death. In California a special long crotched stick is carried, witla bent 'prongs between -which is a strong spring; with this the neck of the charging bird is seized, and it is held helpless, since to struggle is to choke. In South Africa the main dependence is still the primitive "tacky," a Iong, strong branch 'of mimosa, so heavily thorny at the end that after one ex- perience no, ostrich will face it.

Trail riding by Lake Louise. 2. Painting by Robert Holmes of the Lake Louise poppies. Slender and fragile—snow-white, blood -red, and as yellow as the sun --a million poppies blow in the breezes that shiver over the emerald waters of Lake Louise, and bring as many lovely dreams to sveary tourists. They grow, these beautiful little Iceland flowers, that are just a shade more delicate and fairylike than ' our native poppies, down to the very shores 01 Lake Louise, beside the winding paths, in among the rocks, and close to the grey walls of the Chateau. In the evening they are silver and copper and gold in the moonlight, and their magic steals over you like a deli- cious drowsiness. There are all sorts of legends as to -where the pop- pies came from. Some say that the first seedlings were brought. to Lake Louise by a beautiful princess, while others tell you that a mysterious stranger scat- tered the seeds one night by moonlight; children are sometimes told that each little poppy is a tiny dream, and that they are put there by the fairies wlio wanted to be kind to the people who loved their Lake Louise. But it was neither fairy nor princess who gave Louise her poppies df yellow and red and white. Visit- ors to Lake Louise owe their poppy dreams to one Mr. Krook, horticulterist of the -Canadian Pacific Rail- way, who searched the world over for a flower that would grow and thrive in the high altitudes of the Rockies. One day when he was travelling in Northern Europe, he saw a field of Iceland poppies and there flashed upon his mind a picture of Lake Louise gay with poppies of red and white and yellow. He pro- cured some seed and on his return to Canada pleated it in the nurseries at Wolseley, Saskatchewan. In the Spring of 1912, two thousand Iceland poppy plants were shipped to Lake Louise and transplanted. Out of these have been propagated the enormous number to be found there to -day. Who Has? AIrs•.

Bees Thrive in Berlin; Apiaries Kept on Roofs In the genial spring sunshine the bees of Berlin ar beginning to bestir • themselves in the city parks. Berliners have realized bee -keeping can be made a paying proposition, even in a city of 4,000,000 inhabitants. Hives are kept on the flat roofs of public buildings. Twelve are situated on top of the Prussian Diet Building and twenty on the roof of the Acad- emy of Music., In Greater Berlin there are about 200 bee fanciers who own 3000 swarms. It is estimated the capi- tal has an aplarian population of 150,- 000,000. -c► Summertime and the Baby. Ii: very bot weather the baby needs less food, .but more cool boiled water to drink. Baby's clothes- should be loose and • light. Protect the head and eyes from strong sunlight. Much of his comfort depends on the condition of -his skin, and nothing makes for baby's happiness in the sum- mer as much as a warm bath morning and evening, and onvery hot days, sponging before the afternoon sleep also. Beep the skin clean, dry and Iionulered and baby will be less rest- less. Baby needs fresh air quite as much as fresh. food. Keep him out of doors as much as possible, but avoid the sun in the middle of the day. In very het weather take him -out early in the , nmrning and in the later afternoon. Take the baby to the beach and tbe country whenever.:you can. The ohange will be, good for him, provided ..you' watch his food and don't tire him too much. Breast milk is the best for the sum- mer;""`txive cool boiled water frequent- ly between musings in the summer, it is safer to postpone Weaning until tatter the hot weather. Sumner diarrhoea is easier to pre- vent than to cure, and it can usually be prevented by; (1) Boiling all milk' in summer; (2) Care in preparing,. baby's food, ••and diluting it during , very hot spells; (3) Stopping all food if acute diarrhoea begins; It. She bowel movements are very frequent! and the baby has vomiting and fever, stop all food, give only boiled water IiI and call the doctor at Once. The summer is the most wonderful i time of the year for the baby and he will reap great benefit from his outings ;if care is taken in regard to his care, pat',leularly his food. J Before Mr. Krook introduced the Iceland poppy at Lake Louise, it was rather an obscure little flower, but to -day it is known the world over—made famous by Lake Louise. Poets make verses about its slender beauty --artists come to paint it. Above is a study of the poppies by an outstanding Canadian artist, Robert Holmes, which attracted great attention when it ap- peared at a Toronto art exhibition last spring. � ® NIEDEINE LIKE _ A medical scientist, Dr. Richard C.

Just as warmth is radi- ated by intense fire so is beauty of face and figure the expression of glowing health, Without good Health there can be no lasting beauty. Every woman has an inherent beauty, but so ninny unconsciously handicap themselves in the effort to look their best! Any physician will tell you That the basis of good health lies in keeping the system free front those poisons that accumulate so quickly if the body does not function naturally every day. Unfortunately, six opt of ten women, it is estimated, are risking their good Health con- stantly because of the fact that these toxic poisons do not naturally move bat of their systems. And the result is that their health is unpaired, not to the extent of putting them into a sick bed, but through little head- aches, a constant feeling of fatigue, a heaviness that makes theta dull and creates a spiritless attitude to- ward life and Its duties.
