Miss (Teresa Heafey, Dunraven, Que., is one 'of the many anaemic sufferers who has found new health through the use of this medicine. She says:--"I cannot express too warmly my thanks for jwhat Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have done for me. I was suffering from a badly run-down condition. I was very nervous, had little desire for food, and iwould feel tired out at the least exertion. In this condition I began taking !Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and before .using them very long found my health gradually improving, and under their continued use was completely restored. For this reason I earnestly advise all weak girls to take these pills, feeling sure that they will do for others what they did for me."

Paroled Woman's New Temptation I. r Offers to Provide for Breach of Parole Toronto.--A special dispatch from Peterboro to a Toronto paper says: "In the Christmas releases at Kingston penitentiary when Dunlop, Toronto ex-inspector of prisons, was paroled, was a young woman from Bob-caygeon, who six years ago was given a long term, and a man who had completed the necessary part of a twenty-year term for burglary. The man on his way west got off at Belleville and was supplied from unknown sources with a big roll of bills and a bottle of whiskey. On Saturday afternoon the Montreal-Toronto express of the Cana- Kingston the Bobcaygeon paroled woman. She was met at Belleville by the released 20-year term ex-convict, who shared a seat with her as far as Port Hope. It is not known how hi s acualnted with her, but the presumption is that the ever-present grapevine penitentiary telegraphic^ had put him wise about the woman's release. "Every now and then the n.an retired to the car lavatory with his bottle and on his return became more and more careless in his talk with the paroled girl. He showed her his big bank roll and tried to persuade her . to accompany him to Chicago, offer- j one Ing to provide expenses. The wo: man, reluctant for fear of conse ounces on account of her parole, declined to consent but took the matter , under consideration. Leaving the ',ast mentioned possibility is train at. Port Hope, en route to Bob- \ fined *o two points shown upon one caygeon, she took the man's Chicago j maP sheet but ma; address and promised to write later. | connect up points was really a system of map referencing. The same system of squares has been used for many years for map reference purposes by publishers of guide books and general maps. Each square, for convenience, would be designated by a number or by a number in combination with a letter of the alphabet This combination would be obtained by marking the strips of squares in one direction with a letter and those in the other direction with a number, the squares having such designations ajs A7, D9, etc. This method, owing to its simplicity, became very popular, and resulted in great convenience to the map user. In order that they might be easily used for reference purposes, it became a common practice for topographical map sheets to he squared off in like manner. For purposes of administration and for other purposes, it is most desirable to have a system such that when a name is given there can be no mistaking the place or feature that is referred to. If you have a map which is squared and wish to write to someone who has similar map, there can be little.possibility of a mistake if you quote the of the map sheet and then, in referring to the feature in question, state it is a certain square. One difficulty, however, with the usual squaring system is that the numbers of the squares are only good for one particular map. If you have several different maps of the same area at different scales, then it would he quite possible that the same place would be in differently numbered squares on the different maps. The .so-called "Grid" system as worked out by the Topographical Survey, Department of the Interior, is really nothing more than a nationalized system of squares, so arranged that if any place is referred to by its two grid numbers (letters of the alphabet not being used) there can be no mistake as to its location-- whether at not the nkme of any particular map sheet is mentioned. Thus, If there are several map sheets of the same area at different scales, then under tliis national grid system, the two reference numbers of any grid square would always refer precisely to the same location on the ground. For all ordinary purposes, to say that a point lies in square 22--112 or in the northwest quarter of such a square is sufficient. But if greater precision is required, decimals can be added to the reference numbers to the ultimate practical limit, so as to identify the point exactly. Moreover, ;Tvishes to go further than this, the system of grid squares provides accurate means of obtaining the ance and direction (or bearing) point to another.

The i Hard Won Gold Gold Crusher to Fly to Mines, According to New Guinea Plans Canberra, Aust.--The first comprehensive official report of the mining activities in New Guinea was brought to Australia recently by J. D. McLean, an officer of the Queensland Mines Department, whose services were lent to the Commonwealth in order that he might serve as warden of the gold field. New Guinea is controlled der mandate from the League of Nations by the Australian Commonwealth Government, and the administration of the mining operations is in the hands of the Department of Home and Territories. Yield of 20 Ounces t0 Ton Estimated Since Mr. McLean arrived field at the end of 1926, the miners working there had won more than £300,000 worth of alluvial gold, although they had only touched the surface of their claims. No underground work had yet been attempted, but a line of reef 30 feet in width had been traced by the outcrop for five miles. At a conservative estimate, according to Mr. McLean's report, the reef would pay 20 ounces to the ton at a value of £2 4s. an ounce. Some of the miners had expressed opinion, with which he could n< ficially identify himself, that there was £12,000,000 worth of gold obtained. The reef, however, runs through very difficult and inaccessible country, rugged, mountainous and covered with dense timber mosses and fallen trees. It is a seven days' journey on foot from the coast, although not very great, there is an enire absence of machinery at the field, and this has increased the difficulties of the miners and only the most primitive methods have been possible. The long, wearisome journey froin the coast to the field is now, however, being overcome to some extent by the e of airplanes for the carriage of passengers and stores, and for transporting the gold from the field. Efforts are being made to extend the use of airplanes by using them to convey machinery to the mines. Almost Every Mineral There One company is reported to be obtaining from England an airplane capable of carrying one ton dead weight and when this is available it is expected that it will be possible to land at the scene of he operations parts for the erection of a crusher. In this way the' absence of roads will be overcome, it is anticipated. Mr. McLean has expressed the opinion that New Guinea is a country of great mineral wealth. Almost very mineral has been found platinum having been A PERFECT MEDICINE FOR LITTLE ONES Baby's Own Tablets Should be in Every Home Where There Are Children.

Synthetic rubber, already producible in the laboratory by more than method, but hitherto kept from the world's markets by Inferiority of quality or excessive cost, again reported to be on the point of becoming an article of commei Weinberg, a German privy councilor and a director of the Dye Syndicate, stated recently at a meeting of the German Chemical Manufacturers' Association at Frankfort-on-fhe-Maln, that it will soon be manufactured in Germany and enter the I 'iMtd'B markets in competition with m the hatural product. It was announced that a new catalyzer had been found, simplifying the union of the elements of rubber in coal tar. Says the Ber-correspondent of the New York Times, in a dispatch: Dr. Weinberg stressed the part synthetic production is playing in the present chemical industry, especially 'in the fields of artificial silks, leath-horn, shellac, wood alcohol, oils, While before the war Germany's chemical industry never combined ;th foreign interests and preferred maintain monopolies in many branches, new trade developments are along vastly different lines, as evidenced by the various mergers with Erfglish, French, and American firms. The Minister of Trade, Herr Curtis, pointed out that the organization of the German chemical manufai of the iat-'must be credited to America, since 'visiting producers at the Philadelphia Exposition In 1876 got the idea of organizing, -and two years later formed the present association.

In his opinion it would be a long time before equilibrium was restored. Carl Duisberg, of the Farbenindus-! trie, who presided at the session, said | the German chemical industry was I now producing products annually ! valued at 3,000,000,000 marks (about $700,000,000), constituting one-seventh of the whole of German industrial production. Trade circles generally regard the ! announcement as of the highest importance because they consider it as offsetting one of the postwar economic handicaps resulting from the loss of the German colonies and with them w-product sources. The rubber trade in New York, according to the Associated Press, is inclined to view with skepticism the German report. More than a dozen times in the past decade, we are reminded, the trade has heard similar reports, but always the product either has failed to equal virgin rubber in quality or the cost of production has i so high as to render its manufacture impractical.
