MOTHER'S HEALTH NEDS ,„GREAT CARE- • (Care of Rome had Children Often Cants.60 a Breakdown. The woman at home, deep in house - "'kohl dude., and the care of mother- hood, needs occasional help to keep her in good health. The demands upon a mother's ,health are many and atevere. Her own health trials and her children's welfare exact hehvy tolls, while hurried meals, broken rest and -much indoor living tend to weaken her .constitution. Nt., wonder that the we snail at home is often indispoded through weakness, headaches, hack - aches and nervousness. Too many -women haite grown to accept these visitations as a part of the lot of motherhood. But many and variecram ler health troubles are, the cause is simple and relief at hand. When well, is the woman's good blood that /keeps her well when ill elle must .makt her blood rich to renew hix health. The nursing mother more than any other woman in the world needs rich blood and plenty of it. 'There is one way to get this good blood so necessary to perfect health, tand that is through the use of Dr. -Williams' Pink Pills. Mrs. W. T. Riley, Wit, No. 1, Apple -Hill, Ont.. Ilas proved the great value of Dr. -Williams' Piiik Pills to mothers, and tells her story as follows: — "Two years ago, after the birth of my by, I became very weak and run down. 'Gradually I lost weight and energy IAMB I- was unable to do my house- work. I could not sleep, my nerves would twitch and jump so that I arose in the morning with heavy aching 'limbs and head. Indigestion helped -to make the misery worse, and my heart would palpitate terribly! I doc- tored steadily for a year without get - 'king better, but just dragged along feeling that I would never be well again. But one lucky day, on the advice of a friend, I began treatment with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I have taken only six boxes, but I wish you c mild see the difference. I am now able to do my work, go about and en- joy myself. I feel so entirely like a anew woman that I advise every weak .or ailing woman to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and I know they will get beneficial results." If you are ailing, easily tired or de- pressed, it is a duty you owe yourself .and your family to give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial. What this anedicine has done for others !t will surely do for you. You can get Dr. -Williams' Pink Pills. through any dealer in medicine or by mail at 60 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co.,Brock- -trifle, Ont. -me 110G GRADING AND EQUIPMENT EXPLAINED Various forms of equipment have een installed by the different stock- yards and abattoirs in Canada for the grading of hogs. At large mar- kets, such as the Union Stock Yards, Taranto, two tietoi of e ment have 'heft inetalleCley, .thedifferent sto yardsan4:. abattoirs 1p Canada theAtrading,of ham, .A.t,large it .keti, such incthellnlett Steak Y Toronto, ;two seta 'tit Ointment. are in use,. Rime that araivewithout ear labels other identification marks into,lote according to grade and the total Weight of -each, lot', or grade ascertained by the 'folk/Wing preens: The hogs about - to, be graded are enclosed in a large pen holding about One deck load. ,From this pen they pass through a inmate passage, one at a time, to the grading pen, where- the grader as. signs each to the class to which it belongs. The grading' pee has four exits, each leading to a different pen. The exits are opened and closed by a slid- ing door, operated by a rope running over a pulley, the attaclied weight being only slightly less than the weight of the door. When the grad- er decides into which' pen the pig should go, he opens the door by a slight pull of the weight. When the weight 'is released, ''the door falls back into place. After the load has been graded, each lot is driven to the scales and weighed up. The shipper is then credited with the total weight of begs of each grade. Hogs marketed and graded by this system do not- brin to the individual farmers a premium for whatever select hogs the lot. may centaln. This may go to the drover, or it may. be distributed among all of the owners of the shipinent In, co-operlitive shipments, where the hogs bear identification marks, the equipment provides for weighing each individual,hog in the grading` pen... The grader °cell:pies a 'small building adjoining this' pen. The hogs -ire obseeeed before entering the grading pen through a slatted part of the alley through which they pass. It is here that the grader decides the class to which the pig belon.ts and records the identification mark. As it enters the grading pen, it is weighed and its weight recorded on a dial. The grader operates a cal- culating and recording machine, which is much like a typewriter, and is so arranged as to record the merits as well as the weight of each pig in the proper column, according to grade. The sheets lased are known as certificates of lidg ,. grading and show the following: shipping point; name of shipper, to whom consigned; to whom aold, etc., as well as the identificatiin mark, the weight and grade of each hog. A load of 28 hogs owned by ten farmers, shipped from Grand Valley on April 28th, for example, contained 11 selects, rang• ing in weight from 165 to 202 lbs.; seven thick-smoothe, .raging from 150 to 187 pounds; 2 heavies 'of el3 and 230 pounds; 6 shop hogs ranging from 132 to 157 pounds, .and 2 sows weighing 440 and 516 pounds. The shipper is given a copy of this cer- tificate. which enables him to pay each owner the rightful amount of 'money according to the market value of his individual animals. Hogs that are brought to the mar- ket by wagon are not usually put through the grading yard. They are driven into a small pen where the grader marks each according to the grade to which it belongs. The pur- chaser then settles for the hogs ac- cording to the weight of each grade, RED HOT JULY DAYS HARD THE BABY offered for t Long Tears c, .1 -1r b1 9 ItS tihe Mt when he 'eau en't Item, Oth v , dianting osaic f the corners 4 tin in formica - Hebrews.

She had scarce- ly known a well day for eight long years and' while she persevered with her household duties, it was under the handicap of acute • suffering, caused", as is the ease with so many men and women, by a badly run down systern. How speedily she re- sponded to the remarkable correct- ive properties of Dreco bad best be told by Mr. Herper himself. "For the past eight years," says Mr. Harper, "my wife has been a sufferer from stomach trouble. Ter- rible .bloating after meals and gas pressure against the heart caused great pain. Even a drink of cold water would sour and form gas. She war constipated all the time in Act, never missed a day when she didn't have to take a laxative., Her kidneya were in bad condition and caused severe backaches.

She is now practically rid of all her troubles and is able to eat her meals with great content and no bad effects, and she wakes up in the morning feeling fine and refreshed." Dreco is a never failiag source of relief to those suffering from inter r.al ailments. Its natural tonic and regulating action on stotnach, liver, kidneys and bowels quickly restos-es them to their normal functions and replaces misery with glowing health and -strength. Dreco is made only from herbs, roots, bark and leaves, end contains no mersury, potash or habit forming drugs. Dreco is being specially introduced in Seaforth by Chas. Aberhart, and is sold by a good druggist everywhere. PARK YOUR RAZOR, BEARDS ARE TRUMP Place the safety razor among the mothballs. Lay the shaving soap c - way with great-grandmother's lace. And on your Christmas shopping list put, as a present for "him," a mustache cup. The beard is coming back. According to a recent visitor to these parts, "young men are starting to grow beards in England"—and when it's raining in dear ol' Lunnon 'tin well known trousers are turned up over here. Say you not so? Then count—on the fingers of one heed— the hats of your acquaintance that fait to sit slantwise since the Prince of Wales was in our midst. The ob- ject of the intrepid beardgrowers— :invading the last feminine :strong- hold—is to attract attention and "cause young women to call out 'beaver.'" Our informant hastens to state modestly that his own beard war; grown to avid sh'ving each day. Sometimes an object of veneration at others of execration, the beard has had as many ups and downs as the length of women's skirts. In your own youth, it never failed to excite mirth, and one favorite sally, delivered from safety on the back fence, "Sick im ol' razor; he won't ON shave." was considered the height of juvenile wit. The newer epithet "beaver" may design to call atten- tion to the resemblance between the victim of popular attention and the small, furred animal of the :same name, or it may go further back to medieval times and armor when the lower part of the helmet fixed to the the neckcovering of warriors was al- so known as "beaver," a corruption of the French "baviere" or "bib." The ethnologists, who love to figure things out, inform kis that the beard —meaning also the mustache and whisker—flourished most freely a- mong the Celts and Slays and was July—the month of oppressive heat; red hot days and sweltering nights; is extremely hard on little ones. Diar- rhoea, dysentry, colic and cholera in- fantum carry off thousands of preci- ous little lives every summer. The mother must be constantly on her giutrd to prevent these troubles or if they come on suddenly to fight them. No other medicine is of such aid to mothers during the hot summer as is Bnby's Own Tablets. They regulate the bowels and stomach, and an oc- casional dose given to the well child will prevent summer complaint, or if the trouble does come on suddenly will banish it. The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. GREATEST OF BARRIERS WORLD HAS KNOWN The Great Wall of China, which is to be dismantled, and its bricks and stones used for building :purposes, can claim the distinction of being the greatest barrier ever built. Astronomers tell us that it is the only work of man's hand which would be visible to the human eye from the moon. With its twists and turns it is ever 2,000 miles in length. It is 21 feet thick at the base, 15 feet wide at the top, and varies in height from 15 feet to thirty feet. Moreover, it is provided with 20,000 watch -towers. There is sufficient Material in this -single edifice to erect a barrier around the globe at the equator 8 feet in height and 3 feet thick. There are, in fact, more bricks and stone in China's colossal wall than there are in all the buildings in the United the frontispiece; Greek ecelesin.

"By the beard of the prophet" was the most binding oath among the fol- lowers of Mahomet, though swearing by the beard was not confined to any one nation. It was the favorite of Otto I. of Germany, and in the earl- iest known English .ballad one knight swears by his chin to get even with (an enemy. Surely the tart reply of the third little pig to the wolf at the door who would enter, "No, no, by the hair on my Chinny-chin-chire," sprung from the same root as the ancient pledge. In 1798 one Lord'Rokeby, for wear- ing a beard, was proclaimed a mad- man and excoriated as the only peer and perhaps the only gentleman"— note the neat dislinatieri—"of either Great Britain or Ireland who is thus distinguished." In the iniddle of the next century a member ”f parliament flaunted his beard in the face of his confreres. He was considered to have offered a deadly insult and to have displayed radical tendencies. Wars and rumors thereof have long been thought to encourage a growth of hair upon the face. In the 18th century the mustache's -was the trade- mark of the soldidr. Before Water- ton we hear the crack guardsmen trutitieg quite a stir because their mustaches were "being relied by of- ficers in humbler regiments." It must have been annoying! While the Britiph navy has spon- sored the beard and the army favored the mustache, it's a peer rule that won't work backward -is well as front- ward. The soldiers of the etrimea re- turned bearded, as did the veterans of the civil war of the States. The world war, with its generous crop of lieutenants, brought the "misplaced eyebrow" into vogue upon a face that hitherto had resembled "the arid des- ert in Phyne's life," Even return to private life has not entirely elimin- ated this modern attachment. Queen Anne's reign was beardless. Louis XIII. of France and Philip V. of Spain had no hair apparent on the face; loyal subjects followed suit. Only five American presidents have been bearded, Lincoln, 'tis said, by request. Two have worn mustaches.

STOCKS PENALTY FOR KISSING ONCE The case in Belfast of the young man and girl who were locked up overnight for the grievous offence of kissing in the street sheds an illum- inating light on the law's unromantic attitude towards such things. The young man in question had just proposed marriage to the girl and been accepted. Now, according to the best tenets of stage and screen a moment such .as that is normally solemnized by an ecstatic kiss. True, the couple happened to be walking in the st reet at the time, but at such moments love is blind to its surroundings. But a shocked policeman, spying them, marched them off to the po- lice -station, where they spent the night and were subsequently solemn- ly told by the magistrate that they should be ashamed f themselves. This is reminiscent of old Puritan days in America, when, in one re- corded instance in 1656, a sea cap- tain named Remhle. of Boston. was placed for two hours in the steeks for his "lewd and enseenly behav- ior in kissing 'his wife publicly upon the Sabbath day upon the doorstep of his house." He was let off with the light sen- tence of two hours i 11 the stocks in consideration of the fact that ho•had just returned from n three years' voyage. Even to this day kissing is forbid- den in New York in certain places. The New York Central Railroad penalize kissing on station platfarinst, but have erected et every station an elevated platform stalled a "kissing gallery," where passengers may kiss their friends good -hyo. The Bavarian state railways also forbid kissing anywhere on their railways. Riming was pylpi, forbidden in Eng- land, but for quite justifiable roe. sohe. It was in 1439. when a plague that was raging in Europe had in- vaded England. A bill was reshot! through both 14011S445 forbidding any of his Majesty's subjects to kiss. .:, . , ....;416. .or -t V4a ta1P 4-4 4 4 4 1 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4' ' 4 4 , 4 4 4 • 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 114 1. 41 •4. 4 4 4 4 '4 41 '4 41 .4 4 4 4 4 . .
