' NEW STRENGTH IN THE SPRING Nature Needs Aid in Making New Health-Giving Blood In the spring the system needs a tonic. To be healthy you must have new blood just as the trees must have new sap to renew their vitality. Nature demands it, and without this new blood you will feel weak and languid. You may have twinges of rheumatism or the sharp, stabbing pains of neuralgia. Often there are disfiguring pimples or eruptions on the skin. In other cases there is merely a feeling of tiredness and a variable appetite. Any of these are signs that the blood is out of order that the in- door life of winter has lessened your vitality. What you need in spring is a tonic medicine to put you right, and in all the world of medicine there is no tonic can equal Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. These pills actually make new, rich, red Jblood your greatest need in spring. This new blood driver out the seeds of disease and makes easily tired men, women and 'children bright, active and strong. Mrs. Murray Marshall, Zephyr, Ont., says: "I do not believe I would ever have been well and strong again but for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I was so weak and nervous that I could not be left in the house alone. I would take weak spells with my heart ami think I was going to die. I tried doctors and electric belts, but they did me no good. Then a friend urged me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. To my surprise I soon notic- ed my appetite improving, and from than on I improved rapidly until I was enjoying the best of health, and I have not been troubled with weakness or nervousness since." These pills are sold by all medi- cine dealt! s or can be had by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Me- dicine Co., Brockville, Ont. GOOD LUCK IN HORSESHOES. Talisman to Ward Off Evil Shoes of Gold and Silrer. It is not difficult to understand why lovers of horses came to adopt the horseshoe as a talisman against misfortune, says the London Globe. Horses were considered to be. espe- cially liable to the machinations of witches. This fact stands out in all the records of the Lancashire witch- es and other evil hags. If precautions were, not taken these mischievous witches would ride the horses at dead of night over the hills, and when the owner came to the stables in the morning he would find his animals in a lather and utterly exhausted. A horse- shoe fastened over the stable door was believed to ward off such evil. There is no superstition more deeply ingrained in all classes of society than that which is nttached to the horseshoe. As an emblem of good fortune it holds pride of place. Nelson did nut disdain to nail a horseshoe to the. mast of the Vic- tory. In the- early part of the nine- teenth century, the horseshoe- was very highly prized, and there were few London mansions where it was J. P. WHITE. President of the American Fedcr ation of Coal Miners. of shoeing horses by driving nails int'_> the hoofs was introduced into England by William the Conqueror, but such a practice did not make any headway for ceuturies. The Indians, who had no super- iors as horsemen, never thought of shoeing their mounts in any way, and yet they were capable of per- forming remarkable, jyurneys over ( most difficult country. The San- [down Derby was won by a horse run- ning in a natural state. The race j was run twice, owing to the fact ' that three horses made a dead heat on the first occasion. Prior to the. second attempt the owner of Mar- den gave orders for the light plates to be removed from the hoofs of his nominee, with the result that Mar- den gained a comfortable victory by three lengths. Even at the present day in Japan the modern horseshoe finds a strong competitor in the old fash- ioned sandaJs made of straw which are fastened to the. horse/' s hoofs after the manner of equine "cricket shoes." COLE CAUSED SERIOU| TROUBLE BIT DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS BROTGHT THE Cl RE. Mr. Hush Martin, Suffering From Kidney Disisiw for Two Years, Tells How he got Back his Health. St. Hippolyte de Kilkenny, Lake L'Achigan, Terrebonne Co., Que.. April 8 (Special). Again the peo- ple of this neighborhood are talk- ing of a complete cure of kidney disease. Mr. Hugh Martin, Jr., a well-known young farmer, is the person cured, and he gives all the credit to Dodd's Kidney Pills. "My trouble was caused bv a cold," Mr. Martin says, in an inter- view, "and I suffered for two years. My head would ache and I had pains in the back as well. I felt heavy and sleepy after meals. I was often dizzy, my memory was failing and I found it difficult to collect my thoughts. I was also nervous, while heart Batterings ad- ded to my anxiety. "I was a sick man indet-d when I started to use Dodd's Kidney Pills. but by the time I had taken two boxes I was a changed man. Are 'you surprised that I think Dodd's Kidney Pills a wonderful remedy !" If you have two or more of Mr. Martin's symptoms your kidneys are diseased. Dodd's Kidney Pills are the sure cure. BABY'S LITTLE ILLS Baby's little ills are many and need close attention. Worms are among the most common of these ailments there being scarcely a child who is not afflicted by them at some time or other. These, though, can be readily ban- ished by the frequent use of Baby's Own Tablets the only remedy sold under the guar- antee of a government analyst to contain no opiate or other harmful drug. Concerning them Mrs. Jos. Daigle. Ste. Perpetue, Que., writes: "My baby was troubled with worms ; he was nervous and had no appetite. I gave him Baby's Own Tablets and he was soon well again.'' The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Out. Little girls no longer seem to care ifor dolls, but big girls have not lost i their affection for dollars. Some persons are more suscep- tible to colds than others, contract- ing derangements of the pulmonary organs from the slightest causes. These should always have at hand a bottle of Bickle's Anti-Consump- tive Syrup, the present day sover- eign remedy for coughs, catarrh and inflammation of the lungs. It will effect a cure no matter how severe the cold may be. Yo* cannot af- ford to be without a remedy like Bickle's, for it is the best. The minute a man begins to feel i that his troubles are at an. end, he ] makes a fresh beginning. * FACTS ABOIT FACINGS. What They Mean on a Soldier's' I'niforin. Taking the breeks off a High- lander is one ticklish job. and to de- prive a British regiment of its cher- ished facings is another. Many years ago, however, the military authorities, in their wis- dom, attempted to do so, and to make almost all regiments wear white facings in pl.u-f of the distinc- tive colors of which they were so proud, with the result of wide- spread discontent. What, by the way. are facings? The next time you see a soldier in full uniform, cast your eye over him, and you will notice that his collar, the cuffs of his sleeves, shoulder-straps, and the piping, or edging, of his uniform are- a differ- ent hue from the rest of the tunic. These are facings. The general rule is that Royal regiments i.e., regiments called "Royal," or which are known as the "King's" or '-Queen's So-and- so Regiment" for instance, the Royal Scots, the King's Liverpool Regiment wear blu facings; but there are exceptions. Scarlet, for examnle, are the fac- ings of the Royal R' g ; ment of Ar- tillerv : while the green uniform of the Royal Irish Rifles is relieved by dark-green facings. Nu reg ment. however, that is not a Royal regiment wears blue fac- ings. The famous Buffs (East Kent Regiment) are. of course, so called on account of their buff facings ; while the Yorkshire Regiment were known as "Howard's Greens." from the name of their colonel and their grass-green facings. res TATARRHAL PINK ETE EPIZOOTIC DISTEMPER TTTVEK CHRONIC COUGHS Booklet "Distmyer: Cannes, Cur? ami Prevention," P*RKK.

The occasion celebrated the prima don- i na's fiftieth anniversary of public J singing in London, and her render- ings were full of grace and tender- ness.
