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. Every dose
of this medicine makes new, rich blood
which drives out impurities, stimulates
every organ and brings a feeling of
new health and energy to weak, tired
out, ailing men, women and children.
If you are feeling out of sorts give this
medicine a trial and see how quickly it
will restore the appetite, revive droop-
ing spirits and fill your veins with new,
health -giving blood.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by
all dealers in medicine or will be sent
by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes
for $2.50 by addressing The Dr. Willi-
ams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

W C, T, U« COLUMN.
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. I would suggest
