BANISH PIMPLES AND ERUPTIONS In the Spring Most People Reid a Tonic Medicine. If you want the best of health and new strength in the spring you must build up your blood with a tonic medi- cine. Following the Iong, indoor win- ter months most people feel depressed and easily tired. This means that the blood is impure and watery. It is this state of the blood that causes pimples and unsightly eruptions. To this same condition is due attacks of rh matism and lumbago; the sharp stab ing pains of sciatica and neuralgia• poor appe- tite, frequent headaches nd a desire to avoid exertion. Yo cannot cure these troubles by the a of purgative medicines—you need a tonic, and a tonic only, and ong all medicines there is none can equal Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for their tonic, life-giving, nerve -restoring powers.

This column has been reserved for the use of the Wingham W. 0, T. U. and will be edited by the members of that Society. The night is far spent, the day is at hand, let us therefore east off the works of darkness and put on the ar- mour of light. Romans 13:12, Mrs. McKee, Provincial Honorary President of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, gave a splendid address to the members of the Union in this town in the C. O. F. Hall on Tuesday of last week. She is an able speaker and thoroughly explained to each superintendent their responsibi- lity in their work, urging them to be ever faithful in their duties to the Union. In the evening a parlor meeting was, held in St Andrew's Church, Dr. Irwin taking the chair. After a short pro- gram Mrs, McKee gave another ad- dress, which was very instructive, not only to the members, but also to all present, and also pleaded with the audience to see that their ballot was cast right at the next campaign, Re- freshments were served after which Rev. Mr. Croly brought the meeting to a close. Drink is a greater destroying force than all physical evils combined—six per cent, of all accidents, twenty-five per cent. of all suicides, seventy per cent of all those in which lust is the dominant factor can be traced to the excessive use of intoxicants. The Lord Chief Justice of England recently de- clared that if sifted nine -tenths of the crime of England and Wales could be traced to drink. Alcohol is essentially a poison to brain and nerves. It breakes down the tissues of the brain, interrupts the transmission of sensation, breaks com- munication between nerve cells, pro- duces mental aberration, inability and incompetence, dethrones the intellect, overthrows the mind, and becomes a direct or indirect factor in the causa- tion of at least thirty-five per cent. of all insanity. We suffer more year by year from intemperance than from war, pesti- lence and famine combined. While we have the liquor we will have the drunkard. Drink is the dyna- mite of modern civilization. Drink is the mother of want and the nurse of crime. THE PEACE MOVEMENT. The Moderator of the Presbyterian General Assembly has made an appeal to the members of the Presbyterian Church in Canada to take an activepart in the peace movement which is at present attracting so much attention. He writes: "It seems to me very fitting that we in Canada, who are more interested than the people of any other part of the Empire, should do something to help in this truly Christian movement. If we are followers of the Prince of Peace, we should surely do ' something to strengthen the hands of the statesmen who are seeking to bring about the day when swords shall be beaten into ploughshares and spears into pruning hooks, . when nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
