Not the least of the problems that Serbia must face is the threatened lack of professional men when the enemy enemy is driven out of her country and the task of peace can command attention attention once more. 'Obviously, with all her men at war and so many of them eliminated forever from taking part 1 in the reconstruction, Serbia's hopes centre in the rising generation, and it is with this in mind that Britain has undertaken the education of over 300 youths. Despite the fact that the Serbian Relief Fund is relieved of part of the expense, the clothing and feeding feeding and incidental expenses are costing costing a large sum of money, which in itself is but a fragment of the drain on the funds of the relief work being carried out in Corsica and Corfu. The Canadian Serbian Committee has every assurance that the funds are being administered with the utmost economy and efficiency by the British Committee. cheer us with one of your comic songs, please." springImpurîties IN THE BLOOD Al Tonic Medicine is a Necessity at This Season. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are an all year round tonic, blood-builder and nerve-restorer. But they are especially valuable in the spring when the system is loaded with impurities as a result of the indoor life of the winter months. There is no other season when the blood is so much in need of purifying and enriching, enriching, and every dose of these pills helps to make new, rich, red blood. In the spring one feels weak and tired --Dr. Williams' Pink Pills give strength. In the spring the appetite is often poor--Dr. Williams' Pink Pills develop the appetite, tone the stomach and aid weak digestion. It is in the spring that poisons in the blood find an outlet in disfiguring pimples, eruptions and boils--Dr. Williams' Pink Pills speedily clear the skin because they go to the root of the trouble in the blood. In the spring anaemia, rheumatism, indigestion, indigestion, neuralgia, erysipelas and many other troubles are most persistent because because of poor, weak blood, and v it is at this time when all nature takes on new life that the blood most seriously needs attention. Some people dose themselves with purgatives at this season, but these only further weaken themselves. A* purgative merely gallops through the system, emptying emptying the bowels, but it does not cure anything. On the other hand Dr. Williams' Pink Pills actually make new blood which reaches every nerve and organ in the body, bringing new strength, new health and vigor to weak, easily tired men, women and children. Try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills this spring--they will not disappoint disappoint you.

'There's a Reason" DIVIDING THE SPOIL. Accident Which Foretells Similar Horrors in Shell-Swept Europe. Greediness wiped out half the population population of à small village in China, according according to Capt. Fritz Uttmark There were only thirty people in the village, a retired spot on the Hwang River, and of the thirty, fifteen were instantly instantly killed. The Chinese government had been making experiments with some new shells. A mile from the village a company of soldiers had been doing target practice with the shells, and had then been sent to garrison a fort some distance away. During the target practice the soldiers would not let the villagers get bearer than half a mile to the guns, and the people, all ignorant ignorant collies, had no idea what the shooting shooting meant. Some months after the target practice practice had ceased and the villagers bad forgotten about it, two coolies, digging digging in a field, came upon a bright, round object. It was very heavy, and pointed at One end. Neither knew what the object was , As a matter of fact it was an eight-inch shell that had not exploded. "It is mine," said the man who had dug the shell up. "No, it is mine! I saw it first!" cried the second coolie. "You would not have known it was there if I had not seen it." ^ "And. you would not have seen it if I had not dug it up." For half an hour the two argued, each advancing his claim in high-pitched, high-pitched, squealing tones. At last they agreed to let an aged Chinaman, who was said to be very wise, settle the question for them. "You must divide it equally," was the verdict of the old man. Then came the question as to how they should divide it. They tried to break it with a rock, but the shell could not be crushed that way. "Let the blacksmith divide it," suggested suggested the old man. To the blacksmith they went. "I do not work for nothing," declared declared the smith" "I will divide it into three parts : one for the man who found it, one for the man who saw it first and one for me." That arrangement had almost been decided upon when the old man who had given the decision in the case objected. objected. If the blacksmith was to have a third, then he himself ought to have a piece for settling the dis*- pute . "Divide it into four parts," urged tre man.
