HAD WORST CASE OF
C011SI'IPATION
DOCTOR EVER KNEW.
to
Although generally described as a
disease, constipation can never,- exist
unless some of the organs are deranged,
which is generally found to be the liver.
It consists of an inability to regularly
evacuate the bowels, and as a regular
action of the .bowels is absolutely es-
sential to general health, the least irregu-
larity should never be neglected.
Milburn's Lax. -Liver Pills have no
equal for relieving and' curing constipa-
tion and all its allied troubles.
Mrs. F. Martin, Prince Albert, Sask.,
writes: -"I had one of the worst cases of
constipation my doctor said he had ever
known, and Milburn's Laxa-Lives Pills
cured me of it. My father-in-law had
used them, in fact he was the one who
gave them to me. A number of people
around here use them, and they all say
that they are the best pills they ever
used."
Milburn's Laxa-Liver Pills are 25c. a
vial .. at all dealers or mailed direct on
receipt of price by The T. Milburn Co.,
Limited, 'Toronto. Ont.

Mrs. • C. Dresser, Bayfiel Ont.,
writes: -"I want to tell you of he bene-
fit I got from your medicine.
Last winter I had a very bad old and
cough, but after taking two bottles of Dr.
'Wood's Norway Pine Syrup I w,ris cured.
[ think it is - about one of the bt cough
syrups that I know of. I allay keep a
battle of it in the house so I cash have it
when I want it.
The other week I told an o�d lady
about -"Dr. Wood's." She had. been
sick for three weeks with bronchitis, and
had been getting medicine from the .doc-
tory but did not seem to be getting' much
better. She got one bottle of Dr. ood's
e orway Pine Syrup, and she says it has
done her more good than all the doctor's
medicine she had been taking."
Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup is
rich in the lung healing virtues of the
Norway pine tree; and this makes it the
best remedy for cough's and colds.
The genuine is put up in a yellow
wrapper; 3 pine trees the trade mark;

WILL USE TANKS - TO RECLAIM
DAMAGED FARMS OF FRANCE
good deal : ha been written
about the rebuliding of the des-
troyed town;, cities, and villages in
the battle -ravaged area of " northern
France, and it is also encouraging
.to record that a geed deal 'of tangible
progress :has .been made toward get-
•ting Started with this part of 'the
restbration work as soon as there is
opportunity to do se.
Ever sines the' battle Of the Somme
was well under way I have been
reading that the once fertile agrieul-
tural region of northern, .France could
not but remain an - absolute .desert, so
far as °agricultural• production is con-
cerned, for anywhere from a mini-
mum of two or three decades to half
a century and more.
Practically all of the more "learn-
ed" of these theorists appeared to
base their belief on the poisoned -soil
or debilitated soil ideas. None of
them --so far as I remember--claiined
to =have made any study of the gees -
tion in the battle area itself. If they
had --especially during the last sum-
mer -they would have seen a few
things calculated radically - to alter
their opinions. Nevem under the hand
of the husbandman have the fields of
northern - Prance brought forth such
aFwealth of verdure asthis last sum-
mer, and the fact that most of this
growth consisted of Wild flowers and
weeds was merely because ; nothing
else had been planted it their stead.
The physical problem of cultivation
however, quite another matter. I
must; confess that when I first saw
the condition in which the ground
about Thievpval, Fricuort,.. 4ontsl-
maison, Poziexes; and a dozen other
bitterly fought -for points ;in , the
Somme area, had been left, I was so
appaled by the sight that, : for the
moment 1I was inclined to share the
view of =I the many who were shying
that no -practicable way everould
be found for putting it under cultiva-
tion.
It was not until the day 1 met a
Canadian officer, who (like myself)
owned a Western ranch and : had
broken up new land with a tractor
that :a elution `of the problem sUg-
gested ft -self.
elf.
"The danger from unloded
*shells is practically negligible," said
he,, si for the simple reason that a de-
tonator that `'has failed to go off at
the end of ca five or ten mile flight
through the air is not likeIsi to be
greatlydisturbed by a prod from a
plowshare. Neither . will buried barb
wire give much trouble for any
length of time, Railroad iron, con-
crete fragments,' corrugated steel
roofing, and other heavy trenching
material will - have to be picked up
and carted off . bodily."
"All of this leaves," he continued,
'the discovery of a practicable way
of effecting the first rough cultiva-
tion as the one great problem to be
solved. The question then narrows
down as to what sort of a machine
will have to be devised to accomplish
this preliminary work . . And right
there von have the ans(er to those
who are asking what is, to be done
with the thousands of tanks that will
be left `without occupation' at the;
end of the war. Use them, for trac-
tors to draw specially devised plows
and harrows in the first rough ,cul-
tivation of the crater areas. The ex-
tent of the fought -over ground which
is too torn up to be .cultivated in the
ordinary way can hardly run to more
than a few hundred square miles at
the outside, .and ten tines as many
tanks will be available as ,would be
necessary to give this a complete
going over in' a fortnight or sod The
nature and design of the implements
t be .drawn would have to be deter -
i ined by experiment." f'
BAB
'S HEALTH
IN THE SPRING.
The Spring is a -time . of anxiety to
mothers who have little ones in the
home. Conditions make it necessary
to. keep the baby indoors. He is often
confined in overheated badly ventilat-
ed rooms and catches colds which,rack
his whole system. To guard against
this a box of Baby's Own Tablets
should be kept in the house and hn
occasional close given the baby to
kee his stomach and bowels working
regularly. This will prevent colds;
constijation or colic ` and keep baby
well. The Tablets are sold by medi-
cine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a
box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine
Co., Brockville, Ont.

WHAT, A FALL IS THAT OF
ROMANOFFS
From the most autocratic and pow-
erful' ruler on earth with a household
expenditure of $12,,000,000 a year, liv-
ing in a palace where not fewer than
200 servants were employed for the
purposes of guiding guests through
the place, to a prisoner•anci exile in
one of the dreariest cities of Siberia,
with an allowance of about $3,000, a
year, an eight -roamed apartment and
three servants, has been the experience
of Nicholas'Romanoff, ex -Czar of Rus-
sia.. The transition was accomplish-
ed° in not nnuch more than a week.

however, the that

them being tat if any attempt . is

are to be shot, no matter what

family has breakfast at 9 o'clock,
luncheon at 1 •o'cloek and dinner "at

the servants, of whom there are
three, two maids and a butler. The
formai/Czarina is said to do most of
the col 'sing herself, and we are not
astonished to learn that her-favor-
ite
ter,favorite dishes are goose and veal /cook-
ed in the German style. The Czar
prefers Russian dishes, which are
naore digestible, than pronouricable.
His chief disipatioif s are tea-
driking and cigarette smoking. He
drinks from ,twenty to thirty glass-
es of tea a clay. if he has any

mut bitterly refleet that it was his

pump to the house, some little dis-
tance. He prays frequently and

and def -ring to Biot, apparently,
with muCh more einceriey than in
the days when he was czar of all
the Russian. His •. guards, too, are
said to treat I ieholas ' with a' show
of respect. One of them is . a noted
revolutionary pet and, fanatic, who
tries to' cheer' .p Nicholas by assur-
ing him that sering and privation
are more benefi ial in the long run
than peace and! joy. To which. the
Czar responds at he was des' ed I

Nicolas Ronlunoff is said to have I
expressed deep satisfaction only
once . since his dethronement. • That
was when he learned that the Bol-
sheviki had decided to permit, him
to be buried with his ancestors, in
the Cathedral of Ste Peter and St.
Paul . , His interest in this life has:

Any letters he writes or receives are
read by his guayrds, and this restric-
1 tion applies` to all the 'correspond-
ence of his household . He has
been permitted to retain as his com-

There seems little prospect that he '
will ever again ascend the throne of ' --�
Russia;, and '-'it. is more . than doubt-
ful if he would accept the 'position
=were it offered him, although .there
can be lio doubt that the Czarina
would .urge him to do so . But it is
equally unlikely that if the Czar
survives the war he will be kept in
exile. His wife has influential Ger-
man friends, and her husband is not
;without friends and well-wishers
among the Allies. If he is not mur-
dered by the Bolsheviki the future
willprobably make him some
amends for the 'humiliation and
misery- which he is now enduring.
Particulars of the 'daily life of the
banished ruler have been collected
by Iva,ri Narodny for th,e Philadel-
phia Public Ledger,, and we glean
that the Czar is sinking into melan-
cholia. His wife keeps up `her spirits,
by ` the hope of revenging hersIf

ters appear to have speedily recon-
ciled themselves to their fallen for-
tunes. They are permitted to mingle
freely with the townsfolk of Tobolsk
and are members of the local Red
Cross Society and the Woman's
Club. The second girl, Tatiana, aged
20, is said to have been missing for
some time, and nobody knows where -
she has gone. The former. Czare-
vich has developed very democratic
tendencies, and plays in the public
parks. His health, which formerly
was feeble) appears to have been
improved, which, is probably due to
the fact that he is- recovering from
