'2 REAL TIME indigestion flan be (lured by the Tunic Treatment of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. There is only one way to cure indi- gestion and that is to give your sys- tem so much good, red blood that the stomach will have strength enough to do its natural work in- a healthy, vig- orous way. Many dyspeptics dose the stomach with tablets, syrups and other things alleged, to assist in «digesting food, but these things merely give tem- porary reliefâ€"they never cure indiges‘ tionâ€"and the trouble grows worse and worse, until the poor dyspeptic is gradu' ally starving. In a case of indif;resmm a half dozen boxes of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are worth all the mixtures and so-called .predigested foods in the country. These pills cure indigestion because they strengthen and tone the stomach, thus enabling it to do the work nature intends it. should do. Mr. Paul Charbonneau, St. Jerome, Que., says: “For months I suffered tortures from indigestion. After every meal the misery was Intense, so that I finally ate most sparingly. I tried several so-called indigestion cures. but they did me no good. My general health began to run down. A suffered from headaches and dizziness and pains about the heart. Often after the light est meal I would be afflicted with a smothering sensation. Finally my mo- ther induced me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Under the use of this me- dicine the trouble began to disappear. and in less than a couple of months I had completely recovered my health and can now enjoy a hearty meal as well as any one." It is because they make new, rich blood that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills al~ ways cure indigestion, anaemia, rheu- matism, heart palpitation, neuralgia. sciatica. St. Vitus dance and the head- aches. backaches and other indescrib- able ills of girlhood and womanhood.

Such, at least. is the impression gained from Mr. Ellsr worth I-Iuntington's recent book, “The Pulse of Asia." At Matayan, a village in the province or Ladakh, the habitable portion of the upper Indus Valley, a friendly villager invited Mr. Huntington to dive down from the crust which covered eight or ten feetof snow into a oneâ€"storey house. This was at an elevation of ten thousand five hundred feet. Although it was April 11th, the snow, even on a level, was higher than the tops of the houses. Where it had- been shoveled off the flat roofs, it formed high banks, protecting them from the wind, and making them the favorite sitting-room at that sea-son, and even in winter, for the sunshine is always warm in- that dry, cloudless climate. When the little black cows had been driven and .pulled out of the way, Mr. Huntington descended to an almost closed shed used for the two or three hardy sheep and goats, and ushered stooping, into a dark stable containing a little pony, shaggy, like all the ani- mals. Bending low once more, he climbed over a high sill, and was in the .warm, close family living-room. Light and air came in through a hole in the roof a foot square, surmounted by a chimney-pot a foot high, made of three stones set up to keep out the snow. A few bits of ragged cloth on the mud floor for sleeping purposes, a‘ half-dozen metal utensils, and an iron pot full of Himalayan tea, kept warm over some embers, comprised all the visible equipment for housekeeping.

The mother who, in her gratitudefor what. Baby's Own Tablets have done éfor her Child, said that “There's a smile gin every dose," coined a very happy 5and very true phrase. The tablets cure Eal'. the minor ailments of. babies and “young children, and make bright, smil- ling, happy little ones. Mrs. John Young, tAuburn, Ont., says: “I haw: used Baby’s Own Tablets for more than a year and it think they are the best medicine that ,can be given a baby. They are splen- did at teething time. and for stomach !and bowel troubles. You don’t need a doctor if you keep Baby’s Own Tab- lets in the house.” That‘s about the highest praise a mother can give and it's true, every word of it.

Golds, now. They come in through the nose and mouth. I keep my mouth shut, and so have only one entrance to guard. Firstly, I keep out of the way as much as possible of people with colds.

CURES FOR COLDS. ‘When I get home after such an en- ccunter, or, in any case, if I feel the be- ginnings of a cold, I put a spoonful of brandy or whisky in the palm of my hand, and sniff it up. Do this at the very first sign, and you will stop the cold nine times out of ten. Menthol snuff, or ordi- nary tobaoco snuff, serves the same pur- pose. But you must use it rarely, or it loses its effect. Boric acid, mix-ed with vuseline and used as an ointment inside the nostril morning and night, is an al- most certain preventive. You need use it only when colds are about. Person- ally, I find that overcome and fires in- crease the chances of catching cold. Plenty of exercise diminishes them. “Rheumatism?
