The muscles of the back are under a heavy strain and have but little rest.When the blood is thin they lack nourisla m.ent, and the result is a sensation of pain in those muscles, . Som e Some people think pain in the back means kidney trpuble, but the best medical author'. ties agree that backache; seldom ' or neer has anything to do with the kid- neys, Organickidney disease may have progressed to a critical point without developing a pain in the back. This being the casks, pain In the back should always• lead the sufferer to look to the condition of his blood. It will be found in most cases that the •use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to build up the blood will stopthe sensation of pain in the ill -nourished muscles of the back. How much better it is to ; try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for the blood than to . give way to unreason- able alarm about your kidneys. If you suspect your kidneys, any doctor can make tests in ten minutes that will set your fears at rest, or tell you the ih worst. But in any event to be per- fectly h •healthyyou must keep the blood in good condition, and for this pur- pose no other medicine can equal Dr. fi Williams' Pink Pails.

The etymology of steeplecllase is too. obvious • to need set explanation. Founders of the sport merely fixed ne- on .a distant steeple and rade straight to it,, erossing gallantly hedge, ditch, paling, ttlrf or timber, pasture, crops, Moorland or ridge and furrow --whose riding straightest, came in first and was winner. But there are few, indeed, to whom a wild goose chase bears any implica Wm of sport, yet :the phrase derives from a sport t n hazardousindeed, Said to have begun .in Ireland,where a chosen leader took :mounted men cross country, but chose always the roughest, wildest going to be found.If mis'chan'ce befell the: leader some other took up the office --occasionally there was 'a change of leachers • if the first proved timorous. For danger real and thrilling was the spice of the wild goose chase, The winner was not he who came home first, but he who had flunked nothing in the route, even possibly have gone further around to negotiate an extra hazard. Knowing this I have wandered a Tittle if the Wild Geese --tile Irish legions who, fighting for alien kings, have shown themselves prodigies of valor—,did not take their name from e sport nearest the heart of their oineland, Scientific Proof.

Read, Rest Depends Largely Upon the Depth of Your Sleep A warning to "light" or "poor" sleepers The deeper and sounder you sleep the 13etter you feel. Five hours sound refreshing sleep does you more actual good than ten hours restless, disturbed sleep. This is because the final- conversion of food into vital tissue and nerve cells goes on xhore rapidly when the physical and mental forces are ' at rest. You can't get sound, refreshing sleep if your nerves are agitated with tea or coffee. •Both these drinks contain caffeine, which is sometimes very irritating to the brain and nervous system. If you want to know the joy, vigor and stamina that comes to the person who gets sound, healthful sleep, why not stop taking tea or coffee for a while, and drink delicious, invigorating Postum instead. , Thousands of people everywhere have found' that this was the only thing they needed in order to bring about these very happy results.

The remarkable increase in the in- terest whioh Canadians. are taking in their forests is attributed by some to the fact that members of the Canadian Expeditionary force in the war came home with a new conception of how vital forests are to any state, both in peace and• war, and also hoer large a proportion of land in countries of dense population is devoted, to forest culture:, This is clou•btless one reason, and the rise in the cost of forest pro- ducts of all kinde has also been a con- tributing factor. Perhaps the chief reason has been the realization by. both civilians and soldiers of the folly, amounting to criminality, of alliowing a great natural resource to be destroy- ed by the careless handling of fire.
