Childhood •ailments come quickly and means should always be at hand-- to promptly fight them.

My baby suffer .ed terribly from in4estiof'and vam- fting, but the Tablets soon set' her right and now she - is in perfect health."' The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25c a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. HOW TO HANDLE CAR WHEN BRAKES FAIL ESPECIALLY ON A DANGEROUS HILL When bakes fail the eauge can us -1 ualle be traced to neglect on the part of th^ wner to have the bands relin- ed. Gen -rally there are many indi- cat;ens that the brakes are losing their efficiency before they fail to act. When the linings are worn badly or the 'bands are not properly adjusted the brakes fail to act as quickly as they should or start squealing when applied. These warnings should not be disregarded but the brakes adjust- ed or, if necessary, relined and pub into perfect condition. Poor brakes that fail to act quickly in an emerg- ency are responsible for a large .pro- portion of the accidents that occur. The brakes and brake operating me- chanism should be examined at reg- ular intervals, for when brakes fail suddenly it is usually due to a pin coming out or a broken brake rod and faults like this are usually de- tected if the car is examined regular - The most serious time at which the "brakes can fail is when going down bill. There are several precautions that should be taken when descending a hill that is at all steep. Shut off the ignition, leave the engine in gear and open the throttle. The engine -will then act as a fairly powerful brake. If you close the throttle the (braking effect wild not be so great and if the hill is a long one a con- siderable amount of oil will be sucked up into the cylinders and may foul the spark plugs. When you leave the throttle open when descending the hill it is a good idea to close it some dis- tance before you reach the bottom of the hill so as to clear the silencer of :as much of the gasoline mixture as possrible before switching on the igni- tion, for otherwise there is the danger that the mixture will be ignited and 'blow off the silencer. This danger can be eliminated and at the same time a great economy ih gasoline con- sumption can he effected if an extra air valve is fitted to the carburetor. When descending a hill the extra air valve is opened and the throttle clos- ed so that only pure air is drawn in- to the cylinders and you have an air brake on the car as well as your reg - eller brakes. The hand and foot brakes should be -used alternately when going down hill so that neither one heats up too much and loses its efficiency. If you find on going down a hill that the car is gradually gaining speed and full ap- plication of the brakes fail to slow it up you must think fast. If the Hill is a straight one and you can see the bottom clearly and there are no ob- structions in the way, you can prob- ably hold on and get to the bottom safely. :Suppose, however, that there are some bends on the road, you will probably have to 'take a risk and Check the speed at once. If there is a bank at the side of the road, keep a firm grip do the /steering wheel and try to cut down the speed by allowing the wheels and mudguards to rub along the edge of the bank. This may ruin them, but it will be better than a smashed up ,car a little later. If there is no bank then about all you can do is to turn squarely across the road, although you run the risk of turning over. Re- member that when a car gets out of control on a hill, every second you fail to act allows it to gain just so much more speed. Never on any account coast down a hill with the gears in neutral. If you must run free; Ieave the gears in mesh and push out .the clutch, but be careful when letting it in again if the car is moving apt any speed: The en- gine should be speeded up then the clutch let in slowly. If you let in the clutch when the engine is running slowly and the eat is moving fast you maystrip ,a gear.

In their early teens it is quite com- mon for girls to outgrow their strength, and mothers should care- fully watch the health of their daugh- ters at this time, for it is when strength is sapped by rapid growth that anaemia develops. The first signs may be noticed by peevishness, languor and headaches. The face grows pale, breathlessness and palpi- tation follow, with low spirits. At the first symptom of anaemia mothers should act at once. Neglect- ed anaemia often leads to decline, but if you see that your daughter's blood is enriched there need be no cause for anxiety. The finest blood enricher ever discovered is Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The pure, red blood created by these pills will quickly banish. all signs of anaemia. They will build up your girl's health and sensure her a robust girlhood. Give your daughter a course of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills now. Make her strong like thousands of girls who have been rescued from the clutches of anaemia by Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills. Here is a bit of proof. Miss Mary Venditti, Cata- mount, N.B., says:—"Three years ago while attending a convent, I studied very hard to graduate. The result was I became very nervous and got so thin and pale my teachers thought they would have to send me home. I took different kinds of medicine vehicle my parents sent me, but my condition remained unchanged. At last one of my teachers gave me a hox of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I had hardly finished it when I could feel an im- provement in my condition. I con- tinued the use of the pills for some time longer, and I can hardly tell all the good they did me. I gained in strength aid weight, and the color returned to my cheeks, and at the- ' nd of the term I graduated. I ne- er fail to recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pille to my friends and acquaint- ances when a tonic is needed." You can get these pills from your druggist, or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Sometimes after cooking certain vegetables or fruits aluminum ware will he stained. This is caused by alkali. A good cleanser is a salty bacon rind rubbed thoroughly on the metal. Keep in the attic a "charity hox" where outgrown clothes, toys, hooks and other articles may he stored so that when a "call" comes there will be hunting. WHAT IS "THE NATIONAL?"
