It has now been decided, with the approval of the French Ambassador, to set apart July 14 next as France's day, to devote the day throughout the British Isles to a national demonstral. tion of British cordial feeling toward her ally and to allocate the proceeds of the celebration to the urgent needs of the French Red Cross. It is intended that "France's day" shall differ in .every respecb from pre- vious celebrations of a similar char- acter and that it shall prove to be ono of the most interesting and gratifying events in the London season.

The story goes that one cold day in winter some of the birds wanted tc• biuld 'a fire, but they had neither matches nor flint, and so they shivered and shivered until one of them found a little spark left in the smothering heart of a big log that had been on the fire the day before. Among th many birds that quickly gathered round the log were the wren, the crow. the owl and the turkey. How could they start the fire that they needed? First the wren tried to fan the spark into a blaze; but the log was hotter than it seemed to be, and the wren burned his feet and feathers, and fled away in fright. The white crow tried next; but he slipped on a part of the log that wad burned to charcoal, and rolled over real hungry, often unable to diges their food, breathless after the slight- est exertion, and too often on the verge of complete breakdown. " More weals, anaemic people have been made strong, energetic and cheerful by taking Dr. Williams Pink Pills than by any other means. These pills actually make new, rich blood which reaches every part of the body, strengthens the nerves and brings new health and strength., The following is proof of Dr. Williams Pink Pills to re- store health. Mr. Geo. Turner, New IIaven, N.S., says:—d"No doubt due to constant hard work I gob in a badly run down condition.
