ic The antiquated custom of taking purgatives in the spring is useless, for the system really needs strengâ€" thening, while purgatives only gallop through the bowels, leaving .â€"you weaker. Dr. Williams‘ Pink ‘us are the best medicine, for they Ftually make the new, rich, red blood that feeds the starved nerves, and thus cure the many forms of nervous disorders. They cure also such other forms of spring troubles as headaches, poor appetite, weakâ€" ness in the limbs, as well asâ€"reâ€" move unsightly pimples and erupâ€" tions. â€"In fact they unfailingly _ bring new health and strength to ‘"â€"emweak, tired and depressed men, % women and children. 4 lure} by Toning the Blood and â€" Srengthening the Nerves ‘"But what does the fireman on the Stick in the Mud Express â€"do but entices my dog to close quarâ€" ters and throw chunks of coal and squirts hot water upon him, which @he tells me in a blith and frivilous ‘ tone is to take the bark off my dog. That is what makes me hait your railroad, and that is not all by a long choke, for yesterday they misâ€" my dog and got him in front of We engine, when they pulled her wide open and smashed my dog in a way that hurts your rode, and eauses it to be looked at askance by every thinking tax payer and mother. I say fy. on such a rode as yours, with its sanwiches that have a thin rim of ham round the aige, .so when you lock your teeth with it you get left, and the rode has got your money in Dennis. Fy on the whole thing is what I say." It is the opinion of the best medical authorities, after long obâ€" _ servation, that nervous diseases ’a.’re more common and more serious in the spring than at any other time wef the year. Vital changes in the system, after long winter months, may cause much more trouble than the familiar spring weakness and weariness from which most people suffer as the result of indoor life ‘in poorly ventilated. and often ®Averheated buildings. Official reâ€" eords prove that in April and May neuralgia, St. Vitus dance, epilepsy and other forms of nerve. trouble are at their worst, and that then, more than any other time, a bloodâ€" making, nerveâ€"restoring tonic as peeded. s is "I sincerely hope the little fellow has been baptized ?" The vicar had just returned from his annual month‘s vacation â€"and was making a round of the district. Ait a cottage door he came across a tecent addition to his flock lying contentedly in the arms of its fond mother. After inquiring the baby‘s name, he said : The parishioners understood that a certain amount of jealousy existâ€" ed between the dignified vicar and his energetic young curate, says a British weekly, but they never overâ€" looked the fact that the material benefits came from the vicarage. "Oh, well, sir,""‘ replied the tactâ€" ful mother, with a curtsey, ‘‘I ghould not like to go so far as to say thatâ€"you being away ; but your roung maa came round and did what he could." Once a mother has used Baby‘s Own Tablets for her little ones she will use no other medicine. She mmiickly realizes the Tablets are an !;olutely safe remedy and _ one at will give sure results. Conâ€" cerning them Mrs. R. L. Wright, Pennabit, Sask., writes: "I have used Baby‘s Own Tablets for my three babies and think so much of them that I always keep them in the house.‘" The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 2b cents a box from The Dr. Wilâ€" lams‘~ Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. "‘For some weeks past my dog has been in the habit of sicking himself on to the cars as they sped past my place, and he never harmâ€" ed no one by so dotng, nor never would, as I have known him from a child, ve.y peacsolul and fond of young children, and awful fond of ‘the _butcher‘s shop. before where ‘he would sit up on his hind legs and ‘beg with a voire of joy for anyâ€" thing he requested..

Humoring the Vicar. It is easier for a girl to throw. a young man over than it is for her to hit what she throws at. It is good to have it from Sir John French that the British artilâ€" lery, at various points along the front of twentyâ€"five miles held by the Allies, has increased its ascenâ€" dancy over the enemy‘s batteries, says the Glasgow Citizen. It is also eminently satisfactory to be told that our men have obtained a complete mastery over the enemy‘s snipers. Very many of the casualâ€" ties hitherto sustained have been due to this campaign of potâ€"shots organized by the Germans. It has been said that they have trained marksmen for this work, but, given time, our people, we fancy, can alâ€" ways reach equality in anything, and in much human effort, superiâ€" ority. We entered the campaign deficient in guns and men. Toâ€"day matters are on a different footing. The adverse balance in field artilâ€" lery and gums of heavy calibre has been pretty well adjusted ; the nuâ€" merical inferiority in men is being rapidly lessened if it has not been altogether made up.. . Moreover, there have been evidences, in much of the recent fighting along the western front, that the Allies have already secured a moral ascendanâ€" cy over the Hun levies. In Poland something of the same influence is observable. The compliment, paid to the Princess Patricia‘s Canadian Light Infantry, by Sir John French, will be appreciated from end to end of the Canadian Dominion. They have had their baptism of fire and emerged from it with lustre. "For years I was thin and delicate. I lost color and was easily tired; a yellowâ€"pallor, pimples and blotches on my face were not only mortifying to my feelings, but because I thought my skin would never look nice again I grew despondent. Then my appetite failed. I grew very weak. Various remedies, pills, tonics and tablets 1 tried without permanent benefit. A visit to my sister put into my hands a box of Dr. Hamilton‘sâ€"Pills» She placed reliance upon them, and now that they have made me a well woman I would not be without them whatever they might cost. I found Dr. Hamilâ€" ton‘s Pills by their mild yet searching action very suitable to the delicate character of a woman‘s nature. They never once griped me, yet they estabâ€" lished regularity. My appetite grew keenâ€"my blood red and pureâ€"heavy rings under my eyes disappeared and toâ€"day my skin is as clear and unâ€" wrinkled as when I was a girl. Dr. Hamilton‘s Pills did it all." The above straightforward lelter from Mrs. J. Y. Todd, wife of a wellâ€" known miller in Rogersville, is proof sufficient that Dr. Hamilton‘s Pills are a wonderful woman‘s medicine.

These coâ€"operative weed experiâ€" ments will be continued this year. The weeds to be experimented. with are Perrenial Sow Thistle, Twitch Grass, Bladder Campion or Cow Bell, Wild _ Mustard and Oxâ€"eye Daisy.

That thorough, deep cultivaâ€" tion in fall and spring, followed by a wellâ€"cared for hoed crop, will deâ€" stroy Bladder Campion. During the past three years (1912â€" 13â€"14), the Department of Botany of the Ontario Agricultural Colâ€" lege, in connection with the work of the Ontario Agricultural and Experimental Union, carried on Coâ€"operative <Experiments in the Eradication of Weeds.. Some fortyâ€" five farmers coâ€"operated in this work. The weeds experimented with were Perennial Sow Thistle, Twitch Grass, Bladder Campion, Wild Mustard and Oxâ€"eye Daisy. Some very interesting and valuable results were obtained. Those who took part in these experiments proâ€" fited by the experience. In nearly every instance they cleaned the field experimented with, and deâ€" monstrated to their own satisfacâ€" tion the effectiveness of the methâ€" ods tried, and at the same time the results furnish practical inforâ€" mation to others. Some of the Practical Information Gained from these Coâ€"operative‘ Weed Experiments. 1. That good cultivation, followâ€" ed by rape sown in drills, provides a means of eradicating both Perenâ€" nial Sow Thistle and Twitch Grass. 2. That rape is a more satisfacâ€" tory crop to use in the destruction of Twitch Grass than buckwheat. Miss Whelan gives the real reaâ€" son of the popularity of Dodd‘s Kidney Pills.

Other dairymen may well strive to emulate these records of fifty and sixtyâ€"five dollars clear profit above the cost of feed ias made by good individual cows. This sensible meâ€" thod of determining the respective merit of each cow as a profit maker lays a solid foundation for building up a singularly interesting herd from a modern business standpoint. *~C . ys Coming to the cost of feed, plenâ€" ty of herds had an average cost per cow of from forty to fiftyâ€"five dolâ€" lars; even at these high figures the net profit above the cost of feed ran up to fortyâ€"six and fifty dollars as the herd average. There were several individual yields of over eight thousand pounds of milk, while one good grade cow gave 14,400 pounds. of milk and 562 pounds of fat. The best cow in one herd gave only 4,158 pounds of milk and only 155 pounds of fat; the average of the whole ‘herd was only 3,772 pounds of milk and 136 pounds of fat. In a herd near by the poorest yield of any one cow was 5,658 pounds of milk and 278 pounds of fat; the herd average was 7,255 %)ounds of milk and 342 pounds of at. In one dairy record centre mainâ€" tained by the dairy division, Otâ€" tawa, in 1914, there were such surâ€" prising contrasts in yields of milk and fat that they must command the attention of every progressive dairyman.
