Nothing fs more dangerous t8 proper growth, more weakening to the constitution or more likely to pave the way to danger- ous disease. Fully nine-tenths of all the minor ills of 'childhood have thetr root in indigestion.. There ig no medi: cine for little ones to equal Baby's Own Tablets In relieving this trouble. They have proved of benefit in thous- ands of homes. Concerning them Mrs, Jos. Launette, Immaculate Conception, Que., writes: "My baby was a great sufferer from indigestion, but the Tab- lets soon set her right, and now I would not be without them."

A little boy, six years of age, recent- 1¥ ran away from his home at Aversa ~--about twelve miles from Naples--to escape from his stepmother, who ill- treated him. Having searched for him in vain, his father informed the police. Soon Pas- qualino was discovered at Naples with his grandmother. The latter told how, a few days before, she had heard a knocking at her dogr, and, on opening it, she had seen, to her astonishment, her small grandsop standing there alone. "Who brought you here?" she asked. "A woman," answered Pasqualino. TH ws oF M WIGESTION Commoen Es About This Treul ie Into Which People Fall. Many people so far misunderstand fhe digestive system as to treat It like _n machine; neglecting It until it works wuggishly, then irritating it into work ngain by the use of purgatives. The ttomach needs help st all times, but A 'etudy of the process of digestion will thow that purgatives, as commonly taken, dre seldom necessary and often harmful. | To safeguard your digestion the diet must be controlled. Over-eating is al- ways harmful, but one must assimilate onough food to supply the needs of the bMood. Remember, the 'blood has to carry nourishment to all parts of the body and find fuel for its energy. "Hence when the blood becomes weak and fails to do its work, Indigestion arises. Therefore the sure remedy for Indigestion {8 to build up the blood. If you suffer from any form of indiges- tion' choose your diet carefully and take wholesome nourishment. Above all, start building up your blood by taking a course of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Then under the influence of the new blood supply, your digestive sys- tem will respond naturally, your ap- petite improve and your food will do , Jou good.

Ne May Shows Areas Tate? fo tion and ing Features of pen Sei Lack of knowledge of climatic and vegetation conditions has caused many prominent travellers and visitors to Canada to unjustly criticize this coun- The same and in many cases greater ignorance of Canadians hes rermitted much of this unjust criti cism to pass unanswered and unre- futed, with the result that Canada has ofterr been unfairly condemned. The Natural Resources Intelligence Service of the Department of the In- terior, partly as a result of the great | number of enquiries received, has pre- | vared and published an exceedingly fo- ' teresting Vegetation and Forest Cover Map of Cenada. This shows at a glance the different mones of vegeta. fe and their chief distinguishing characteristics, from what are known as the barren lands, that are in no sense barren but support a growth of hardy grass and vegetation peculiar to the cold climate, to what is termed thp Carolinian zoue, in southeastern Ontario, where is found almost sub- tropical vegetation in the fruit beit. The enormous area of Canada must of necessity provide a wide range of vegetation and forest conditions. In the northern ccuntry, extending from the shore of Hudso Bay to the Mac- kenzie delta, the white spruce strug- gles for existence, while on the south- eastern portion of Vancouver Island are found a number of Californian types of trees, the most remarkable being the madrona, or arbutus, ' the only broad-leaved evergreen tree in Canada. The new map is an intensely inter- esting one, and one that will conduce to much study and investigation, An immense amount of hitherfo upublish- ed information is shown thereon, much research work was entailed, and the notes of explorers and surveyors, from those of Bir Alexander MacKenzie, Sir John Franklin, Samuel Hearn and others to the more modern surveys and explorations of the different Federal and Provincial government de- partments, were carefully examined for authentic records. To the student of Canadian conditions the new map will be of much assistance in enabling him to segrevate the several vegeta- tion zones, approximate the possibili- tles of forest exploitation, and estab- lish the areas of known farming dis- tricts. From north. to south, fom east to west, all the wonderful changes in our natural vegetation are vividly por trayed on the new Vegetation and Forest Cover Map. It fills a want long experienced, -and-will-no-doubt-be in considerable demand. Copies may be obtained from the Director of the Na- tural Resources Intelligence Service of the Department of the Interior at Ottawa. Six Years of Pain. There is a prevalent opinion on the outside of China that the custom of foot-binding among the girl children of 'that country has been generally abandoned, but such is not the case. The movement appears to have taken root only in the more populous dis tricts, but at other parts the custom is still followed to a very great ex- tent. The foot of the infant girl is turned under so that the toe is bent back toward the heel and it is tightly bound in this position. It means six years of constant pain before the foot has taken the desired shape and then it measures from three to five inches in length. At one time a law was passed forbidding foot-binding, but there was no penalty and no means of enforcing it, so that no attention was paid to it by the natives. nat wes -- Twenty miles of sewing cotton may be used in the making of a fur coat.
