[HE HALF-SPEED MAN AND WOMAN What It Means When You Feel "All Out of Sorts." You know -what it means to feel "all out of sorts." Most people; have felt this way at some time. Nerves out of order, irritable, lan- guid, depressed. An aching head, a fagged brain, appetite bad and | digestion weak. With some people ' this condition comes and goes ; with , others it is chronic; they can't shake it off. It interferes with busi- j ness, spoils recreation and robs life of all its joys. These men and women are only able to live and work at ''half speed." Half speed people have lost t/hat' abundant natural vitality which en- ! ables others to go 'full-speed- ahead" through life. Their energy and nerve power 'have evaporated they cannot work long without breaking down. The trouble is nerve weakness and is caused by poor, watery blood. You can begin ! to improve your condition to-day by taking Dr. William's Pink Pills- ; They r*ake rich, red blood once : more pulsate through your veins. and your nerves thrill wifh fresh vigor. Here is convincing evidence ', that ne-w strength and full health ' can be had through the use of Dr. j Williams' Pink Pills. Mr. Xewton ; Mayhew, North Tryon, P. E. I., j Bays : ''I am a farmer and naturally j have to work very hard. The re- j suit was that I found myself very : much run down. My blood became i thin and watery, and my muscles j flabby. I took doctors treatment j but it did not help pie and I grew so weak that I could scarcely work | at all. As I found the medical treatment was not helping me 1 decided to trv Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and in these I found the mdi- J cine I needed, as in a short time I ' was restored to my old health and ; vigor. I shall always recommend j these pills to all sufferers." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all medicine dealers, or will be mailed, post paid, at 50 cents a box ' or six boxes for $2.50 by The Dr. : Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, I Ont. work. In another recent report issued by the Forestry Branch on the Wood-Using Industries of On- tario, birch ia reported as being used in the manufacture of over one hundred different articles, ranging from ships to spools. Afl & fuel- wood, it takes first- place, and it is also one of the principal woods ud in wood-distillation, while its only objection as a pulpwood is that it is too heavy to be readily floated down the streams to the nulls. Birch also formed 28 per cent, of th square timber exported from Canada in 1912, according to the bulletin on the production of lum- ber, square timber, la-th and shin- gles for that year, which has been prepared by the Forestry Branch and will shortly be issued. The re- mainder was largely white pine. Until 1912 the export of square tim- ber had steadily decreased since 1877, but last year showed a sur- prising increase, the quantity ex- ported- in 1912 exceeding that ex ported in the previous year by al- most 90 per cent.

The popular idea that b*c*,use Canada is the Land of the Mopi>, the maple must necessarily be the hardwood of first importance in Canada is incorrect, judged by the data gathered by the Forestry Branch of the Department of the Interior at Ottawa. There are three species of birch of commercial importance in Can- ada, the black, yellow, and white, or paper, birch. The former two have the more valuable wood, but are confined to eastern Canada, whereas the paper birch is found in every province- of the Dominion, ranging to the limit of tree-growth towaru* the north and growing well within the Arctic circle in the Mackenzie River basin a-nd in the Yukon. It is this wide rarge which con- tributes largely to its present im- portance, but the qualities of the wood promise a still greater use in the future, for it is a strong, hard, fine-grained wood which takes a hifrh polish and can be stained to imitate the more expensive woods, such as mahogany, cherry or wal- nut.

Every mother should be able to recognize the symptoms of tlie little ailments that attack her children. She should also be in a position to treat them promptly. To do this she should kee<p a supply of Baby's Own Tablets in the house at all times. The Tablets never fail to be of help to Httle ones. Mothers who are- anxious for the welfare of her lit-tle- ones will receive free for the asking a valuable little book on the care of infants and young children. Concerning the Tablets. Mrs. G. L. Bonham. St. George. Ont.. saya : "I can recommend Baby's Own Tablets as a safe and sure medicine for little ones. I have raised four babies with their aid and would not be without them.''

Prof. Pringle, a Scotch scientist, is quoted as saying that ants have the most perfect sound-producing organs yet discovered in insects, and that they are extremely suscep- tible to sound. He claims that these organs are situated in certain segments of th<- .-lidomen and that sounds are brought forth by rub- bing, but no one has ever heard them, as they are too faint to be detected by human ears. Attempts have been made to hear them with the aid of the. microphone, but the only sound detected was thait of the crawling of the ants. Again in regard to the hearing of ants, careful and exhaustive exper- iments have been conducted with six species from this country and England, and it was decided thait these specie* could perceive sound*. How they did It was more or less a matter of doubt, as some scientists A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY An eminent ctentlrt, th other day, gar* his opinion that the moat won- derful discovery of recent year* was the discovery of Zam-Buk. Just think! AJ soon as a sing:* thin layer of Zam-Buk U applied to * wound or a sore, such injury la Insured against blood potion! Not one species of microbe has beta found Chat Zam-Buk does not kill! Then again. As soon as Zam-Buk Is applied to a sore, or a cut, or to skin disease, it (tops the smarting. That is why children ar such friend's of Zam-Bak. They car* nothing for the science of the thing. All they know ia that Zam-Buk stops their pain. Mothers should never forget this. Again. As soon u Zam-Buk is ap- plied to a wound or to a diseased part, the cells beneath the skin's sur- face are so stimulated that new healthy tissue Is Quickly formed. This forming of fresh healthy tissue from below la Zam-Buk's secret of healing. The tissue thus formed is worked up to the surface and literally casts off the diseased tissue above It. This U why Zazn-Buk cures are permanent. Only the other day Mr. Marsh, of 101 DelorUnler Are., Montreal, called upon the Zam-Buk Company and told them that (or over twenty-fire years he had been a martyr to eczema. His hands -were at one time so covered with sore* that he had to sleep in S'.oves. Four years ago Zam-Buk was Introduced to him, and in a few montihs it cured him. To-day over three years after his cure of a disease he had for twenty-five years he is still cured, and has had no trace of any return of the eczema!

Missionary's \Vifc TrUa of Amus- ing In- 'ill. -in. Th wife of a missionary long stationed in Africa confessed re- cently that she became hysterical with suppressed la-ughter at the first service that her husband held at the station after bringing hr out. She had, indeed, to leave the chapel lest she should disgrace her- self by an outburst of an unseemly mirth. The cause of her discomfiture was an important convert, an aged and venerable chief, with snowy wool and a countenance of ferocious dig- nity. The young wife had thrown away the day before an outgro-wn pair of her tiny daughter's ankle ties. They were of a gay scarle* morocco, and when they reappeared at church buttoned neatly through the distended lobes of the old i chief's ears and dangling conspicu- ously against his withered ebony shoulders the spectacle was TH-> . much for her especially in combi- nation with the rest of his costume, which, consisted of a dirty blue loin cloth and a headdress made of fea- j thers artistically combined with imported shirt buttons.

Shipments of Cubs From Alaska Said to Be Valued at $100.000. A shipment of 126 cub foxes, es- timated value $100,000, recently I arrived in Vancouver on a Cana- !dia.n Pacific Railway stesarner from '. Skapway, Alaska. Included in the ! lot were red, black and silver gray ' foxes, one pair of black foxes being estimated as worth $10.000 when jfull grown. The owner, who ac- j companied the shipment, collected them in Northern Alaska and Yu- , i kon Territory, purchasing them i from the white and Indian trap- ! pers. They are being shipped Eat ' to the fox farms in New Brunswick, i Prince Edward Island and the East- 1 j ern States. It is reported that since the : opening of the season 219 live foxes, ranging from silver grey to cross, '. valued at $320.000, have- been ship- j pod from Edmonton to points in ; Eastern Canada and the United States for breeding purposes. In- ; I eluded in this lot were 10 young ; j black foxes which we-ne sold to a i ! New York firm for $30,000. Many j j young foxee die soon after capture-. Several black pups have died after being sold for $1,500 to $2.500. A Western raw fur company, which j has been supplying the Kaste-ni j markets with young live foxe>, an- i flounces that it will discontinue j Eastern shipments, having decided ; to establish a f&rm In Western Al- : bert-a, where 40 foxes are already i domiciled. It is stated that a decrease of 23 to 50 per cent, has taken place in ! the prices paid for these animals, which is attributed to the large number which have been supplied frmn the entire Northern country of Ala-ska, Yukon Territory ami the ; North- West Territories. The sup- ply has been plentiful ou account of the young foxes being diyt out of their holes before they were able to I escape. In a short time the- young ' foxes will leave their dams, and it; i will then be impossible to catch them other thai singly in trapa. wliivh will then, in all probability, increase the price of thM auimals in the Eastern marke-to. rubbed on times a 1J* LLIOTT S Bt'SINESS TOLLE'IE TO PARKS POM tAH.
