By the signs of na- ture there is evidence of more fine weather before the winter sets in. HEALTHY CHILDREN ALWAYS SLEEP WELL The healthy child sleeps well and during its waking hours is never cross but always happy and laugh- ing. It is only the sickly child that is cross and peevish. Mothers if your children do not sleep well; if they are cross and cry a great deal, give them Baby's Own Tablets and they will soon be well and happy again. The Tablets are a mild but thorough laxative which regulate the bowels, sweeten the stomach, banish constipation, colic and indigestion and promote healthful sleep. They are absolutely guaranteed free from opiates and may be given to the new- born babe with perfect safety. They axe sold by medicine dealers or by mail at ee cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. ENGLAND'S POSITION A FAVOR - ABLE ONE. It will scarcely do for either the political enemies or the commercial rivalls of England to assume that that oountry is down and out because business is languishing there and times are hard -because mines and mills were compelled to shut down, and the unemployed are even now clamoring at the doors of town halls. We have been told that Englishmen lhave now only to choose between starvation and emigration—that Eng- land's markets are destroyed and that she can neither feed her people nor buy food for thein with her export business. If this were literally trud, says the Boston Transcript, the spectacle presented would indeed make of England that which she has sometimes been called, the modern Carthage. As a result of such a condition, the owl and the bittern would soon be the only in- habitants of London and of Man- chester, and. the lonely New Zeal- ander, from some spared ivyclad tower of London Bridge, night indeed brood reflectively over the miasmatic ruins of the once proud metropolis of the world. already begun. The coal miners Lave gone to work. They have learned the lesson that they cannot hope '•to receive an uneconomic wage, nor to dictate in their own assumed, not real ,interest the poli- tica of the Empire. Britain has a large reserve stock of coal which she is able to export, and to sell cheaper than any other country can sell it. Her shipping is in a position to hold the busi- ness of the seas, being economically organized and managed, which is not the case with our own. German rivalry on the seas has been re- moved. And in the meantime, general trade and industrial condi- tions have tangibly improved, and unemployment' has somewhat diminished. In the measure that the outside world recovers from the wreck, the awful waste, the par- alysis ,of the war, there is every indication that the industry of Great Britain will stand ready to march step by step with it. This in substantially the view of a prac- tical business man, an American, who has been closely observing the whole situation. To his con- clusions niay be added the general observation that Ohe workers of England have never yet failed to prove equal to the demand made by their country's destiny and career among the nations, and there is really no good reason to doubt that they will prove equal to it in Britain's greatest crisis. Not in a year, not in a decade of the strangest of all events can the es- sential character of that nation be destroyed. The workers are there,' and in spite of ' fiercely -propagated Bolshevism, they will work. Moreover, there are resources, tending to make England more nearly self-supporting. which have searcely been touched, and which may now be availed of by a far- seeing ..statesmanship. The land- holding nobility has learned its les- son as well as the working class. Deer parks and grouse preserves will yield to the public food re iptirement, and intrsdve production will be organized. But the great- est lesson of all will have been learned if the workingmen realize at lase that the i best assurance of pros- perity rests upon the solvency of the business in which they are engaged. Evidently they have learned this 'les son, and if they have, they have learn- ed it in advance of the workingmen o. the United States; who, in their erganizations at least, still cling to the idea that they can get more than the business will bear. With the recognition of this principle, England may gain a long stride in advance', of America in the race for the re- covery of prosperity. In that event, she may be in a position to teach us. most valuable industrial lessons. If one were to accept the recent lamenbations—or, in some instances, the jubilations — based upon the assumed total ruin of England, one must be afflicted by the thought that the destruction sought by Ger- many has been achieved in spite of Germany's defeat in the Great War —that the prayer of hate, "Gott Strafe England," has been answered, notwithstanding the Allies' costly victory—perhaps on account of it. Can we actuallysuppose that this is the case? Certain indications have favored the supposition. Busi- ness of all kinds has languished. The war put a burden upon British industry which seems impossible to bear. Production in all lines is weighted down by a staggering, even a paralyzing, rate of taxation. Cost was pushed beyond profit. To make matters worse, the workers of Britain, her immorial pride and her saving resource, .her true bul- wark and defence, the one great guar- antee of her very existence, seemed to fail her in her emergency. In her pivotal inditstry, the mining of coal, they demanded wages which the industry would not yield, and asked privileges and power which threatened the very bases of the state. The foundations, indeed, had seemed to totter. But though the situation was, and is, so serious, the fact must be noted that England is still there, and still possesses industrial re- sources which can be employed for her salvation. The fact is made clear by a statement made to a re- porter of the 'Transcript by a high- ly competent authority, Trade Commissioner Wilbur J. Page of the United States Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, a .business ex- pert, who has .been attached to the American Embassy in London for the past two years, and who is fresh from a deep study, on the ground of the British irdnetrial and com- mercial situation. Mr. Page be- lieves that the BACs' reonver'y Tari A DESIRE TO EAT WHAT YOU WANT. Stomachs Can Be Restored to Healthy Condition. .Not to he limited in diet, but to eat whatever he pleases is the dream of every dyspeptic. No one can hon- estly promise to restore any stomach to this happy condition• because all people cannot eat the same things with equally satisfactory results. But it is possible to so tone up the di- gestive organs that a pleasing diet may be selee'ted from articles of food that cause no discomfort. Wihen the stomach lacks tone there is no quicker way to restore it than to build up 'the blood. Good digestion without rich, red blood is impossible, and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills offer the hest way to enrich the blood. For this reason these pille are especially good in stomach trouble attended by thin blood, and in attacks of nervous dyspepsia. Proof of the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in rases of indi- gestion is given by Mr. John A. Me- Donald, o-Donald, Tarbot, N.S., who says: Ev- ery sufferer from indigestion has my heartfelt sympathy, as I was once myself a bond slave to it. Eating at all became a trial, and as time went on I became a mere skeleton of my former self. I took all sorts of re- commended medicines, doctors' and advertised, but to no avail. Then a friend said to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I got a box and I thought be- fore they were done I could feel a change. Then I got six boxes more and by the time they were used I was sorting my meals with regularity and enjoyment. My general health is now good, and it is no wonder that I am an enthusiastic advocate of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills." You can procure Dr. Williams' Pink Pills through any dealer in medicine or they will be sent you by mail at 60 cents a box or six boxes for X2.60 by writing direct. to The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.
