HARD ON LITTLE ONES
Our Canadian winters are exceed-
ingly hard on the health of little
...ties. The weather is often an sever...
that the mother cannot take the little
one out for an airing. The 1401101..
quAnce is that baby is confined to
overheated. badly ventilated rooms:
takes cold and becomes cross and
peevish. Baby's Own Tablets should
be given to keep the little one heal-
thy. They are a mild laxative which
/ regulate the stomach and bowels and
thus prerent colds. The Tablets are:
sold by medicine dealers or by mail
at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Wil-
liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.
The play has been accepted by -a Cali'
fornian producer and will be screened
in Canada.
Mrs. Smith appreciates the value of
publicity probably better than any
other politician in British Columbia,
and she knows how to get more than
her full share of attention. But no-
body grudges her this, because she
is always so particularly "nice" to
the newspaper writers. In One she
stands out in strong contrast to one
of her lady opponents at the recent
election, who went out of her way in
the campaign to berate the news.
papersover an absurdly trifling mis-
take, a course of action which greatly
tickled Mrs. Smith, who said:
"She's a nice little girl, but my
what a lot she has to learn!"
Although she entered political life
as "Mrs. Ralph Smith," in the course
of scores of interviews with shop girls
and stenographers in connection with
minimum wage legislationshe found
that the sonorous title, "Mrs. Ralph

Then they fell out.
quarter of a century, i
although n
those early days she did not have the
remotest idea that she would herself
find a place in the seats of the mighty.
Her whole ambition then was for the
success of her husband, the late
Ralph Smith, for many years a power
in the Liberal politics of British
Columbia, and a man who did much
to keep party heelers from the public
treasury. Together Mr. and Mrs.
Smith studied and discussed the po-
litical questions of the daytogether
they addressed public meetings, and
together they worked for advanced
social legislation and the cause of
woman euffraee. Even in those far
back times when the cry "Votes for
Women" was considered a good joke,
and nothing tnore, Mr. end Mrs.
Smith labored loyally for the cause.
Mrs. Smith was first sent to Parlia-
ment at the last election at which
men alone were permitted to vote!
On the public platform Mrs. Smith
has an easy, breezy manner. Blessed
with a splendid figure and a fine de-
livery, a ready wit and a rare gift for
repartee, she can hold her own in any
gathering, and has all the old-time
politician's ability to deftly tun, the
subject when an awkward question is
put, or when the subject under dis-
cussion is becoming dangerous. She
knows every trick of the stage speak-
er, carefully studies her audience,
takes advantage of every opening,
but withal does this so naturally that
her very art appears only artlessness.
Particularly clever at telling stories,
she has an inexhaustible fund of
smart sayings, and seldom makes the
mistake of working any good yarn to
death. She has the real knack of tell-
ing stories -she can even tell a Scotch
joke in such A way that an English-
man will see the point at once.
Since her family of boys has grown
nip, Mrs. Smith has devoted practi-
cally all her time to her political and
social service duties, with occasional
ineursions into the literary field. For
some time she contributed a daily
woman's editorial" to the Vancouver
Daily Sun, and her magazine contrie
butions are many. A year or so ago
she wrote a 0`movie" play dealing with
social legislation and the pert women

New Health Can Be Obtained By
Enriching the Blood.
When a girl in her 'teens becomes
peevish, listless and dull, when noth-
ing seems to interest her and dain-
ties do not tempt her appetite, you
may be certain that she needs more
good blood than her ystem is pro -
'A(1(41 with. Before long her palid
cheeke, frequent headaches, breath-
lessness and heart palpitation will
confirm that she is anaemic. Many
mothers, as the result of their own
girlhood experience, can promptly de-
tect the early signs of anaemia and
the wise mother does not wait for
the trouble to develop further, but at
once gives her daughter a course
with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, whicls
renews the blood supply and ban-
ishes anaemia before it has obtained
a hold on the system.
. Among the many who have bene-
fited by the use of these pills is Miss
Dora Kerr, R. R. No. 4, Wiarton, Ont.,
who says: "For a long time I had
been feeling tired and worn out. I
was troubled with headaches and
backache, and would wake up in the
morning feeling tired and depressed.
I had to walk a considerable distance
going to and from school and would
feel so tired that it seemed I could
not go another step. About this
time a lady doctor CAMP to the
school to examine the children, and
she told me I badly needed a tonic° to

Pills had been used in our home be-
fore this and I began to take them.
I can only say that they have greatly
helped me, I no longer suffer from
the headaches and backacdies and I
now wake up in the morning feeling
netted and refreshed. If ever in
