Here is the statement of one per- son among thousands who have used Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to their own great advantage. Mrs. A. Veniot, Hemford, N.S., says:—"For about two years I was a great sufferer from In- digestion, which seemed to carry with it a complication of other troubles. Every meal I took brought with it misery, as 'it was followed by pain, and sometimes nausea and vomiting. At other times gas would form in the stomach to such an extent that my heart would palpitate at an alarming rate. These conditions brought on extreme nervousness and irritability, and I found my general health so much affected, that the least exertion would tire me and I slept but poorly. li - had been doctoring for several months, with no result beyond slight temporary relief, when I was advised by a friend to try Dr, Williams' Pink Pills. I decided to follow this advice and got a half a dozen boxes. Good re- sults soon began to show from this treatment, and the further continued use of the pills have made me a well woman. I can cheerfully recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to similar sufferers." The purpose of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is to build up ,the blood... They do this one tiling and they do it well.

It is contelileetly predicted that with- in a few year;: the motion picture pro- jector will be f£,uial in nearly every family. There are, already, it seems, light portable machines that a child can operate with entire safety, since these machines employ films that can- not catch fire and that produce sharp, clear pictures. In other words, the projector seems likely to take its place In. the home with the phonograph, and to have an even greater power to amuse and edu- cate. It can, for example, effectively illustrate science and geography, or with equal success show in living mo- tion the workmen of all trades and occupations. It makes an ideal supple- mentary instructor in commercial and physical geography as well as in many other branches of science. The motion picture camera also will soon be within the reach of near- ly every one. Even with the present machines any person can take motion pictures of his friends and relatives. Some persons are already making pictures of their children at regular intervals. They fasten the pictures together to make a continuous strip of film that in future years will be a -valuable family record.

The mother who works every moment is no joy to herself nor to her family, for if she does not , become 'irritable she gen- erally smothers spontaneity and hap- piness, nor does she ever know what it means to be the GLORIFIED mother at the end of the day. The "glorified" mother is the one who finds recreation in having the family together after the tea things are put away. She can join in the children's games, such as drop the handkerchief, hide the thimble, con- undrums, parchesi, dominos, or the simple card games such as "slap jack" and "everlasting." At other times she can read aloud the bedtime stories, but, however 'she inay join her chil- dren in play she should find it her blessed privilege to bring harmony and reflection out of the day's ex- periences so that the children will feel "That God's in His heaven, All's right with the world." feelings.

She came to complain about his report, as you may have surmised. She came gorgeously gowned and shod and sabled. She had several unpleasant things to say, and I let heti say them and free her mind. Then I told her it was my turn, I asked her how many boys like Bartley she would like to take care of for five hours a day, to say nothing of trying to make them use their minds. Would she do it at any price? Would she do it for nine hundred dollars a year? She said that the salary was low, and the authorities ought to do something about it, I told her that she couldn't put it off that way because to all intents and purposes she was the authority—she and people like her.

When the man in the street reads that "the,thieves got away with jewels valued at $25,000," he often thinks that crime is probably worth the risk, for one goo(1 burglary like that would satisfy a reasonable roan for some time.

It's only the big and spectacular burglaries that get reported, The' Lions are theonly animals of the oat faiiuily to have circular pupils whelt their eyes are contracted, soners. Out of 488 burglars the average gain from their burglary was $04.66, and it mustu't be forgotten that for this paltry sum every single one was serving a sentence! One man, who had the reputation of being particularly daring and expert, averaged less than $7.00 a week from his crimes? • It mustn't be forgotten that jewels valued at $5500 by the owner won't fetch more than $100 or $150 for the burglar, unless he's exceptionally lucky in disposing of his 'stolen goods. There is more profiteering among "fences" than among any other class. Out of 443 pickpockets the average amount for which they had been sen- tenced was $22.93, and yet most of them confessed they would •gladly give up the game for a certain $8,00 a week! The average earnings of criminals, despite the dazzling hauls they are supposed to stake, do not average $5 a week year in and year out. And take the case of criminals who have made big hauls, Ned Lyons, the bank burglar who got away with over half a million in his career, died 1n a charity hospital in New York; Goudie, who robbed the Liverpool Bank of $850,000, died in prison; Johnnie Irving, who with some companions robbed a• Northaniliy ton bank of $700,000, was shot by a fellow burglar, who died in prison.

Cancer is not contagious, Furthermore, there should be no fear ofinheriting this disease, as the theory of heredity has not been conclusively shown. These assurances place an entirely hopeful aspect upon the subject of cancer. Although we do not know the actual cause of cancer, we certainly know much about it. We know the disease begins as a small growth such as a lump, scab or ulcer, which is slow to heal. These may appear as innocent growths at first, but because of re- peated injury or for some other reason they take up an unusual aettvity, especially in persons over forty years of age. Jagged teeth may be the ex- citing cause of ulcers of the tongue Ultimately resulting in cancer, while pipe smoking may so -irritate the lips that carcinomatous ulceration may re- sult. The stomach is the most fre- quent site of cancer. Women, par- ticularly, should consider every lump or growth on the breast as potentially malignant and seek the advice of the family physician at once. It should also• be known that there is but one positive cure for cancer, which is early and complete removal. Surgical treatment gives the 'best re- sults, provided it is done at the braet of the disease. Plasters and salves give only temporary relief. The pa- tient is given a false sense of hope while the disease is actually progress- ing. Internal medicines are worth- less. Radium therapy, however, is valuable when used for superficial cancers of the skin, mucous mem- branes and certain tumors of the bone, which are not very malignant and only then used by experienced physi- cians. The X-ray is a great aid in making the diagnosis -of internal can- cer, and may be of benefit after surgi- . cal operation to prevent recurrence. Fulguration, which is the process of destroying superficial growths by an electric spark, is beneficial in selected cases and under expert Handling. Your Dog's Bad Habits. Since your dog's bad habits mcy be owing to an unsuspected cause, learn as much as you can about his part be- fore you attempt to correct him. Of course if you have raised him from a poppy, that will not be necessary"; but if you have bought a grown dog, you can .Often cure him of bad habits simply by studying his past training. Barking at night is very annoying. Try to cure your dog of it by speaking to hint kindly; if the weather is very cold, take him indoors. Give him plenty of exercise, too, if ho is tired. he will usually sleep soundly. Get the neighbors to cooperate by keeping their own dogs quiet. Remember that there is a difference between barking and howling. Howl- ing often indicates a real discomfort, such as worms, fleas or cold. Healthy dogs seldom howl except from loneli- ness•. Only doge That have natural fts 1- ness and stamina should be allowed to run with a wagon, and they should never be taken along in very hot or very cold weather. Scold your clog for barking at the horsed; the habit causes many runaways. If he per- sists, strike him with a long lash from your seat on the wagon. Teach him to stay well back under the wag- on; that keeps him out of trouble and gives hint shade. Soiling the owner's clothes with muddy paws is a habit that is easily broken. When the dog puts up his paws, hold them and step gently on. his hind feet. Chasing the cat is also a curable habit. Part of your work must be with the cat; teach it not to run from the cl.

The best way is to load a few eggs; drill a small hole. in the shell, draw out part of the contents and put in a little red pepper. - It is hard to cure a dog of fighting. Kicking hint or pulling him off -by the hind legs or by the tail while he holds his grip only makes matters worse. The best way is to dash cold water over his head.
