RED HOT JOLY DAYS: HARD ON THE BABY July--the month of oppressive heat; red-hot days and sweltering mgghts; is extremely hard on little ones. Diar- rhoea, dysentery, colic and cholera: infantum carry off thousands of pre. clous: little lives every summer. The mother must be constantly on her guard to prevent these troubles, or if they come on suddenly to fight them. No other medicine is of such aid to mothers during the hot summer as is Baby's 'Own Tablets. They regulate the bowels and stomach, and an-occa- sional dose given to the well child will prevent summer complaint, or if the trouble does come on suddenly will banish it. The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. nti Where Are They?

Tested by its plumbing and by analo- gous tests India is in a sad state. But when I closed Catherine Mayo's "Mother India" I began to reflect on certain criticisms of our.own cherieh- ed Western civilization which I have heard, not from disgruntled Indian agitators, but' from gensitive and in- telligent men and women who were | able to view the situation in perspec- | tive. The drunkenness of Glasgow | on a Saturday night, the slums of Manchester, the waste of public re- venue on unproductive expenditure, the system of primogeniture, the existence in the British Isles of a class of permanently unemployed-- these are phenomena which might well prompt a writer from Mars or even from the continent of Europe, to write a book about "Mother England" which would be as true and as untrue as "Mother Tndia."
