Exeter Advocate, 1914-12-3, Page 3WHITE AS A WWIOST Palo or Sallow Cheeks Ono of the First. Signs of .Anaemia Bale and , sallow cheeks, with blanched lips .and gums,. and elate circles under the eyes, ai'e the:first signs that anaemia has begun its deadly progress. This first, warning is followed by greatwe:ai'sne,ss. and breratthlessness after any exertion. .'You grow melancholy, have' fre- quent headaches, awake in the morning feeling •.tired. You become morbid and nervous, .starting ar.the slightest nose,. and your heart pal- pitarteue violently even on going up- stairs. Most girls from fourteen to twenty suffer from anaemia, Neg- lect to supply new blood to the languishing, bloodlese body, means a life of misery—indeed it is an open invitation to that mast hope- less of all diseases, eonsuanptiion. The new, rioh blood that cures an- aemia and gives new health and 'strength is reiadily created by Dai, Williams' Pink Pills, That`is why these pills have cured more° cases of bleedlessneas and blood disor- ders than any otther medicine. They have made thousands of girls and women strong, well and rosy, with bright eyes and new energy, just be- cause they nourish the body with new,, rich, red blood of health. Here is a typical instance. Miss Laura Dempsey, Auburn, N, Y., says ; "For several months I was in a. very bad `state of health, with many of the s;}rmptom.s that acoom- pany .ansemira. I was pale and b aodleas, had terrible headachee, would be breathless at the least exertion. Having tried a number of m.edicdnes without relief I natur- ally became discouraged and began .to fear that I was .doomed to con- tinued illness. At • this stage a friend who had herself been bene- fi•tited by. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills urged me to try them. I did so and thanks to the pills I aL1n now enjoy- ing the best of health, and feel that 1 cannon recoinme-nd this •splendid !medicine to highly." Other weak and ailing girls can also obtain new health .and strength dtrough the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

Crude drawings of cows of vary- ing proportions, some in `attitudes r _of defence, belligerency, or in graz- ing positions, were noticed by French officers during the early days of the campaign on the Aisne. I The sketches at first were consider- ed the simple efforts of school chit- dren, but the frequency with which this subject appeared on walls, buildings, bridges and in every available place in the departments of Oise and Somme puzzled French officers .who conducted a thorough investigation. They are now con- vinced'that.the system was used by German scouts to direct the armies that were to follow. There was .a great variety in the sizes oftlae drawings and in the positions of the heads and other. particulars. By comparing notes and dates it was discovered that these prude pictures hada very in- timate relation with passing events. Certain categories of the pictures coincided in every case with the same developments in the military operations and continuing their researches, they discovered a per- fect ,system of communication had thus been organized, similar to the system often employed 'by gypsies and tramps for indicating informa- tion to those of their confreres that come after. The position of the animal's head was made to indicate the direction in which the French troops were to be found, and the size of the animal indicated the importance of the forces., A very small cow meant that the route was not veru ,strong- ly guarded; a cow in •a natural po- sition i ti of defencend rated -fol fica- - tions in the neighborhood, and the size of the animal indicated the strength of the fortifications. A cow 'with head raised high indicated , that prudence was necessary in ex- ploring the neighborhood :before venturing farther, FROM MERR I ULD..:NRLA a Cas of Ii1tei'e►st to All 1?YOiileii NEWS liy MAIL.
