Without this treat- ment the trouble may become chronic and the patient a life-long sufferer. in. cages of this kind is shown by the plowing statement by Mr. Frank J. J Acton, Ont, who says:--"In Ont, my daughter Gertrude, then ed- fourteen, had a' bad attack of rheumatic fever, which left as its af- ter effects a severe attack of St. Vitus dance. For weeks she was 'confined to Ler bed ' under the doctot's care. She was entirely helpless, being un- able to even hold a spoon to feed her- self. For a time she lost the power of speech almost entirely, and only with great difficulty made herself unler- stood. The twitching of her muscles was so bad it was painful to see her. After a long time and taking a lot of medicine, she seemed to improve. But she did not seem to get along as she ought to. In November, 1917, we removed to Acton, and in January, 1918, she was again confined to her bed with St. Vitus dance. She was again in a terrible state and quite help- less, She was under a doctol's care,. and while there was an improvement, she was etill very nervous, did not look well and was always tired. In May, 1918, we decided to try Dr. Wil- llams Pink P, and see what they would Co £57 her. Shé took them re- gularly dccording to directions, and after taking several boxes there was a decided improvement. After a further -use of the pills she is now as-healthy a girl a3 you would wish to see. She 14s fat, with a fine, healthy color and is strong and lively. The-neighbors, to whom she is well known, remark l'on the wonderful change in her ap: pearance since taking Dr. Williams Pink Pills, Both her mother and my- self are convinced that the pills have done her a world of good as she is now far healthier than we at one time thought she ever would be." = For all trouble due to poor "blood and weak nerves there is..mo other 'medicine can equal Dr.*Willams Pink Pills. You can get these pills from any dealer in medicine, or by mail, post paid, at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2,60 from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

Because of the de- Micits which have continued to be in- curred proposals for further advances have been under consideration. The advances in rates on the Aus- trian railways since pre-war days have been enormous. The increase of 80 per cent. made in February, 1920, made the total increases about 330 per cent. In September, 1919, freight and pas- senger rates in Belgium had been in- creased 40 to 50 per cent. since pre- war times. Further increases have been made since then. In September; 1919, freight and pas- senger rates in The Netherlands ere 'aflvanced 50 per cent. ~Very much the largest advances re- ported in any country have been made fn Germany, where, it is well known, practically all the railways are owned 'and operated by the government. Re. peated advances were made during the war and still further very great advances have heen made since the signing of the armistice. The pas- senger rates now average about T00 . per:eent. higher than before the war, and: the freight rates about 800 per cent. higher. Large advances in rates have also had to be made in many countries which were remote from the seat of hostilities. For example, in Decem- ber, 1919, all freight and passenger rates. on the South African Govern- ment. railways were advanced 25 per cent, while in August, 1919, a raise of 20 per cemt. in both freight and pas- senger rates was made in Brazil, and in' October of the same year addition- al increases were proposed. Even in Australia; which was about as remote pMrom the theatre of hostilities as any part of the world, all the government railways have suffered severely from the 'effects of the war and have had to make advances in their rates. The railways of Great Britain were placed "under government control at the beginning of the war and are still being thus operated. During the war the passenger rates were advanced 50 per cent., while the freight rates were not advanced at.all, and because the increases in expenses greatly exceed- ed the increases in rates the govern- ment incurred a large deficit. To re- duce or wipe out this deficit advances in the freight rates of the British rall- were made effective on January 15, 1920, and extra charges were added to rates which cover the collection and delivery of freight at stations as well as its transportation. In March, 1920; the demurrage charges imposed for holding a car one day beyond the period of free time were increased 100 per cent, and the charges for subse- quent days 200 per cent, eS World May Grow Hotter.
