A Fashionable and Money -
Saving Work.
Horne dyeing is now one of the true
home arts, a work that is artistic, tin
occupation that tins becom&-pleasant
and fashionable. People in easy eir••
cumstances who give their attention
to the work of home dyeing also find
it at most profitable recreation.
This increased interest in dying
work, and the great success that at-
tends it, comes from the use of the
celebrated Diamond Dyes that are so
easy to use, so true to color, so pure
stnd brilliailt, so fast and unfailing.
A costly wool or silk dress that has
become spotted or faded can in a very
short apace of time he made equal to
new. No garments or materials need
be thrown away or sold to the second
hand dealer because of lost or, dingy
colors. An outlay of from ten to
twenty cents for Diamond Dyes will
recreate every piece and save many
dollars.
If you have not, yet begun the easy
work of home dyeing, let us assure yoil
that you miss a pleasure and lose
money as well. Look up your faded
and discoloted garments at once, and
lyse the Diamond Dyes; you will be sur-
prised with your success.

TION, THE FREQUKNT OUTCOME.
There is more worr•y'connected with
the routine life of the average clergy-
man than most people imagine. His
duties are multifarious, and it is little
wonder that he. frequently becomes
the victim of nervous exhaustior;, in-
somnia, etc. In this condition Dr.
4Villiaots' Pink Pills act more speedily
upon the nervous system than any
other medicine, and promptly restore
the user to a normal state of health.
Rev. Won. Clarke, a rising young
Methodist minister stationed at Orono,
Ont., says :--•`I have derived great
benefit from the use of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills. I found that when I at-
tempted to study I would become
drowsy and could not apply myself to
my work. Aly. digestion was very
bad, and my nervous system seemed
to be out of gear. At first I paid but
little attention to the matter, but
found myself growing worse. At this
tithe I was stationed at° Fort Ste-
wart, Ont., and was boarding at the
norne Of astorekeeper, whoadvised 1110
to try Dr: Williatus' Pink Pills. I de-
cided-t.o do so, and thanks to this inedi-
cine, I am again restored to good
health. Under these circumstances I
feel it illy duty to say a good word for
Or. Williams' Pink Pills.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills cure by
going to the root of the disease. They

strengthen the nerves, thus driving;
disease from the system. Avoid imi-
