Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have been
used for years as a blood -making tonic
and system builder with such good
results that in every community there
are many people who are recommend-
ing this remedy to their friends and
to others who are afflicted.
. 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."

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

Burglary Doesn't Pay.
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.
Now il'there is one thing certain in
this hard world it• is this: "Crime
doesn't pay.
It's only the big and spectacular
burglaries that get reported, The'
Lions are theonly animals of the

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

some companions robbed a• Northaniliy
ton bank of $700,000, was shot by a
fellow burglar, who died in prison.

The Cure of Cancer.
Many cases of cancer in the early
stages are curable. 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.

Chasing the cat is also a curable
habit. Part of your work must be

Sucking eggs is a seriously bad
habit, Cure it as soon as you can, or
some poultry keeper may kill the
dog. 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. Another person should
