(AFTER EFFECTS OF DREADED LA GRIPPE by the USB of Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills Throughout Canada la grippe (in- fluenza) prostrates thousands of busy men and women every winter, wrecking their health and leaving behind numerous serious ailments. It is the after effects of la grippe that cause such widespread misery. Here is the reason. La grippe leaves behind it weakened vital powers, a shattered nervous sys- tem, impure and impoverished blood, and a low state of health that renders the sufferer extremely liable to rheumatism, indigestion, neuralgia and nervous disorders. You can avoid la grippe entirely by keeping the blood rich and pure through the occasional use of Dr. William*' Pink Pills. Or if, be- cause you have not recognized your blood weakness, la grippe fastens its fangs upon you, its disastrous after effects can be driven out by the same medicine. Dr. Williams' rangemente being made of magnitude never before required by the Clyde. An important feature of the Aqui. tania, as in the Lusitania and Mau- retania, is that extending through- out the most vulnerable parts there is that great desideratum,, a ship within a ship. In other words, there are two shells, the inner as well as the outer shell being water- tight. The space between the outer and inner skins averages about fifteen feet, and at short intervals there are bulkheads dividing this inter- vening space into relatively small compartments. It will be under- stood, therefore, that any fracture on the outer shell due to collision will result in the ingress of the gea being limited to a small area at the side of the ship. In addition to this important provision there are six- teen bulkheads extending athwart- ship from the port to starboard side. It might be thought that this combined system of transverse and longitudinal watertight subdivision was in itself sufficient safeguard against flooding, but further pro- vision has been made by the devel- opment of the svstem of fitting wa- lnt< ? the construction of the Lusi- ta " la d * he Fr m 1 , *~"~*^*" v ' *-** it *uxcuui> , , i i t_ t i i i Pink Pills increase and enrich the i ^f^S _ L w ? w * a /^ rod r uccd blood supply, feed the starving nerves, and thus impart new health and new strength to enfeebled men p ^ted^/s -T B ^ ?* ^tefis Sr^iSutsfts nected with the Sun Life Assurance Lusit?nia and the Mauretania, with . /' , x, w.s., says: | was j additions consequent upon increas- taken down with a heavy cold and ^ ^am and length.

I was still far from well, and did not have the vim necessary for a strenuous business life, and did not attend to either office or field work. Talking with a friend he said 'Why (not try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.' I decided to do so, and before I had used a box felt an improvement, and before long the Pills made me feel like a new man. I can't there- fore say too much in favor of this valuable medicine, and hope that *any who may read this and be in need of medical attention will be persuaded to try this truly wonder- ful medicine."

Medicine A GIANT STEAMSHIP. Cunard Liner Aqnitania Has Inner and Outer Shells. The new giant Cunard line steam- ship the Aquitania, which is now be- ing rapidly prepared for sea, having been launched on April 21, 1913, from the yard of the builders, Messrs. John Brown & Co., Clyde- bank, Glasgow, Scotland, combines In her design and construction the experience and invaluable informa- tion deduced from the construction and performances of the Lusitania provided on a scale commensurate with the great size of the ship. The first class public rooms include drawing room, hall and galleries, lounge, smoking room and veranda cafes, on deck A ; foyer, restaurant, grill room and dining room on deck D. There are also a gymnasium and a swimming bath. The second class public rooms in- cbie drawing room, lounge smoking room and dining room. There are altogether eight decks on which pas- sengers are carried. The division of the ship into wa- tertight compartments is much more extensive than is required by any regulations, and exceptional con- ditions might therefore have been obtainable in connection with the lifeboats, but the Cunard company early in 1912 submitted its designs to the Board of Trade for an instal- lation of lifeboats, including mo- tor lifeboats, to accommodate all the passengers on board.

During the week before Christmas, 8,500,000 letters for Can- ada were sent out. The figures are : Parcels. Letters. Australia 19,500 8,600,000 China & Far East 10,000 India and Ceylon. 48,000 India and the whole of the Far East 5,000,000 New Zealand 19,000 620,000 South Africa 30,000 3,125,000 Canada 8,500,000 The figures concerning the par- cels gent to Canada were not pro- curable, along with the rest, be- cause such parcels were sent en- tirely from Liverpool. Altogether, the G. P. 0. reported that 50,000,- 000 letters went out during the Christmas rueh and ten thousand extra employees were engaged in London alone to handle the work, and twenty-one buildings were pressed into service, including drill halls, public baths, and auction rooms. It will be noted from the above figures that more letters were for Canada than for South Africa. Aus- tralia, and New Zealand combined, and more for Canada than for China, India, all the Far East, with either Australia or South Africa thrown in. There has, in fact, been a tre- mendous increase in the mail busi- ness between Canada and Great Britain in the past fifteen years.
