Every woman at the head of a home; every gir} in offices, shops and factori¢s is subjected to more or less worry. These cannot be avoided, But it is the duty of every woman and every girl to save her strength as much as possible, and to build up her system to meet unusual demands. Her future health depends upon it To guard against a breakâ€"down in health the blood must be kept rich, red and pure. To keep the blood in this condiâ€" tion nothing can equal Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills. They strengthen the nerves, restore the nprebite, bring the glow of health to pallid cheeks, and renewed energy to listless people. Women cannot always rest when they should, but they can keep up their strength and keep away disease by the occasional use of Dr. Wllllams" Pink Pills. Mrs. A. Rhodes, Hamilton, _Ont., says: "A few years ago on com-' ing to Canada, working long hours, and close confinement began to tell upon me.

"While visiting a friend I was servâ€" ed with Postum and I determined to get a package and try it myself. The result was all that could be desiredâ€" a delicious, finely flavored, richly colored beverage. Since I quit coffee, Postum has worked wonders for me. An Eastern lady says: "I used coffee many years in spite of the conâ€" viction that it injured my nervous sysâ€" tem and produced my nervous headâ€" aches." (Both tea and coffee are inâ€" jurious to many persons, especially children, because they contain the subtle, poisonous drug, caffeine.) There are times when mother or father feeds the youngsters something that they know the children should not have. Perhaps it is some rich dessert but more often it is tea or coffee. It is better to have some delicious, hot foodâ€"drink that you can take yourâ€" self and feed to your children, conâ€" scious that it will help and strengthâ€" en, but never hurt them. In the last few weeks the soap manufacturers have found it almost impossible to get raw material, and some of the largest soap works which formerly dealb only in carload lots are now glad if they can deliver a few cases. Laundry soaps at the beginning of the war cost about 3 cents a pound t wholesale, but now they are priced , 16 to 19 cents. Meantime foreign soaps have been brought in, but these sell for as much as 15 cents a pound, though very inferior, containing only some 20 per cent. of fats. Big Advance in Prices of Both Toilet and Laundry Grades. Owing to the shortage of oils and fats the price of soap in Austria has advanced enormously. Fine scented soap now cost six or seven times as much as before the war. The love affairs of Tommy cause his superiors considerable amusement for he knows no French, excepting the litâ€" tle that he has picked up since he came to France, and his sweetheart knows no English, save what Tommy has taught her. vrmiish Soldiers Make Marital Alliâ€" ances in France. Army officers along the British yront say that many hundreds of Britâ€" "*sh soldiers have married French girls since the expeditionary force landed in France, and hundreds of others have become engaged, a fact not genâ€" erally known even in London. Some of the Tommies plan to take their wives back to England, but the maâ€" jority have declared their intention of settling in France when the war is aver. and finally could do no work. I was pale, suffered from headaches, did not rest well, and felt altogether very miscrable. The doctor said that the trouble was anaemia, and after doeâ€" toring for some weeks without getâ€" ting any relief, I decided to drop the doctor and take Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills. Very soon I began to notice a change for the better, and by the time I had used a half dozen boxes of the Pills 1 was again enjoying the best of health. I have never had any reâ€" turn of the sickness and never felt better in my life than I do now. I give my experience, therefore, that it may be used for the benefit of others."

UARD WORKIAG WOHEN the Use of Dr. -qu} nothing gives him greater satisâ€" hcgpn than a case where a mangled limb has been saved after weeks of It is not to be imagined that miliâ€" tary surgeons rush to operate in every possible case. "Conservative surgery" ig the modern principal. The smaller the list of operations the greater the prfle felt by the surgeon in his work i Promptitude in the majority of cases is the prime factor in the solâ€" dier‘s chances of recovery. Time afâ€" ter time a man‘s life has been saved by carly operation when a long jourâ€" ney on to the base would have renderâ€" ed his case hopeless. In one instance a surgeon of world repute, performed 146 severe abdominal operations beâ€" tweoen May 1 and September 30 last. They included wounds of the bowels, stomach, spleen, liver and kidneys, and of the number seventyâ€"one recovered and sevontyâ€"five died. â€" Considering the nature of the cases some of the greatest surgical authorities of the world admit that such results have never been even remotely attained in the history of military surgery. A| few years ago scarcely one would have stood any chance of survivnl.‘ and the saving of so many is a triumph of skilled surgery, good mn-s-] ing and perfect equipment. | The next point is the casuaity clearâ€" ing stations. These are situated as near the firing lines is consistent with safety, and they are always in direct touch with the base either by rail or a good road for automobiles. Here the pationt comes under the charge of the finest surgeons England can provide. It is quite a short journey. In fact,| nearly all these stations are well withâ€" in the range of the enemy fire. It is not unusual for a soldier to be inside | one within an hour of his wound. As} a rule, there is one large ward, proâ€"| vided with every necessary detail. Atâ€"| tached is a small, carefully equipped | operating theatre, where operations of an urgent natureâ€"such as the arrest | of hemorrhage, temporarily controlled | by a tourniquetâ€"can be carried out.| Wounds are also cleaned and redressâ€". ed here, fractures more comfortably | adjusted and antiâ€"tetanus serum in-' jected. Nearby are two dugouts where the patients can be removed if | the shelling becomes too hot for safeâ€"| ty. And if a patient cannot safely be | moved further he can be kept at thisl station until he improves sufficiently. |\ _ Only a complex, fine, well thought out organization makes such a sysâ€" tem possible, and history of the Britâ€" ]ish Army Medical Corps during this | war is certain to be very carefully | studied by all nations who have not | yet attempted the raising of a great army. Although its numerical force cannot be stated, it is an open secret that its present strength is more than fifteen times what it was at the beâ€" ginning of the war, and its equipment infinitely more perfect. The manner of its working can best be judged by the experiences of a soldier from the moment he is wounded. Every British soldier carries a field dressing as part of his kit. It is drillâ€" ed into him that he must apply this himself or get some one else to apply it at the first moment possible. If he can be reached he is attended to at once by the regimental doctor, who works right up in the trenches. Then the stretcher bearers come and place him on a stretcher, whence he is carried to the advanced dressing staâ€" tion. | These peaceful victories of a terâ€" \rible war will probably not be chronâ€" ‘icled for many months to come. But \a system whereby a man in need of a grave operation finds himself on the | operating table within three or four | hours of his being shot is worth atâ€" tention. There have been instances | where operations to the skull and abâ€" domen have been performed within two and a half hours of the infliction of the wound. ‘? Surgeons the Most Famous. _ This attention is not of the improâ€" | vised, rough and ready order. On the icontrary. the patient finds himself in _an operating theatre, equipped with Ithc best and most recent appliances, | and in the hands of an operating surâ€" geon of the first order. And, into the bargain, has the advantage of regular and frequent visits from a consulting surgeon of European reputation. Perâ€" ’hape of equal importance is the fact that he is cared for by army nursing sisters, probably the best trained body of women in the world. In fact, apart from outside disturbances, the patient might just as well be in a firstâ€"class London hospital. Naturally such dis-‘ turbances do occur. It is no uncom-‘ mon thing for a few shells to fall on a hospital, and in one instance recentâ€" ly, the electric lighting having been destroyed by enemy fire, one of Eng-! land‘s most famous surgeons finished . a delicate operation by candle light. | in France has a better chance of seâ€" curing prompt and skilful treatment, thereby enormously enhancing his chance of recovery, than has the civilâ€" ian who meets with a grievous acciâ€" dent in any rural part of England. It is not yet within the bounds of huâ€" man capability to drop a fully equipâ€" ped hospital over the spot where a wounded soldier falls, but the British army medical service has gone as near to this as is humanly possible. Unless the enemy fire is such that reâ€" scue is out of the question it will proâ€" vide the necessary treatment of the most skilled surgeon in considerably less time than could happen in ordinâ€" ary life, writes a London correspondâ€" ent. SURGICAL MARVELS ON BATTLEFIELD Recoverics From Wounds as Result of Prompt Attentionâ€"Nurses‘ Work. _ Strange as it may seem, a soldier pad_l_y wounded near the British lines TRIUMPHS OF BRITISH DOCTORS AT THE FRONT.

It will be compuratively few of the Indian soldiers, of course, who will come back and it is from those who remain in India that the influence on their own people is expected to emanâ€" ate. How great a change the perâ€" suasion of these soldiers with adâ€" vanced ideas will work on the people as a whole remains to be seen. No man with a poor memory has any business to become a liar. Minard‘s Liniment Lumberman‘s Priend Curious Effect of Shell Fire. Shell fire produces curious effects ‘at times, and not the least remarkable is the cross made by enemy fire over the graves of soldiers in France. It occurred between Barcy and Varâ€" redes, where, according to the Illusâ€" trated London News, the top of a tree was cut off by a shell. In falling the severed par of the tree was caught on a projecting branch and hung balâ€" anced in a horizontal position at right angles to the trunk, thus formâ€" ing the transom of a cross. Near by are the graves of thirty soldiers who were killed there in September, 1914. Many of British Expeditionary Force Will Settle There. The contact which the Indian troops have with western life, religion and customs during their stay with the British expeditionary force in France may have a far reaching effect on the religion and habits of the people of India. The patient remains in a convalesâ€" cent home until thoroughly cured. In suffering from a complaint like rheuâ€" matism where massage is required, but a slight amount of work is beneâ€" ficial, he is sent to a "command deâ€" pot" and placed on light duty. In any event, when quite well, he is sent home on leave, and by the time that expires he is absolutely fit to take his place in the firing line again. In some cases of slight wounds the speed with which a man is taken to England is extraordinary. In a reâ€" cent fight a man was wounded in the early morning, taken to a clearing station, and by night was in hospital at Sheffield, his home town! Arrangements are also made on the ship for the man to spend his conâ€" valescence as near his home as posâ€" sible in order to be within easy reach of his friends. While on the ship he is asked which part of England he wishes to go to. When he arrives at Southampton four ambulance trains are in waiting, and he is then sent on the one going nearest to his own home. These trains are miracles of ingenuity and comfort. Driven with such care that the patient is practiâ€" cally unshaken, he lies in a comfortâ€" able cot still under the care of nurses and doctors, while everything necesâ€" sary is at hand in case he needs treatâ€" ment almost as perfectly as though he were in hospital. _ From the casualty clearing station a patient is taken either to one of the big base hospitals or to England. The base hospitals differ only a little from any big city hospital, except that freâ€" quently the buildings were never deâ€" signed for such purpose. Otherwise they have every appliance known to science. In any event, the man‘s path to England is easy and comfortâ€" able. If he is unable to walk he is wheeled on to the hospital ship lying near the hospital. On board he is placed in a comfortable swinging bedâ€" cot, attended by doctors and nurses, and is cheered by the visions of the convalescent home to which he is beâ€" ing sent. Incidentally, casualty clearing staâ€" tions have other uses. They constiâ€" tute rest camps for soldiers after long spells in the trenches. They will keep a man slightly wounded, and after a few weeks send him back to his regiâ€" ment perfectly fit. If necessary, they will fit him with a set of false teeth, moulded on the spot, and they will replace any article in his equipment from his boots to his rifle. The volume of the work can be judged from the fact that at one staâ€" tion alone 2,600 casualties were dealt with the day after the battle of Loos. Most of these surgeons have made great sacrifices in undertaking this work for their country. Very few of them are paid more than $3,000 a year, and numbers of them _ could easily make ten times that amount in practice at home. unrelaxing care. And a military surâ€" geon deserves all the satisfaction he can obtain. No work is harder than his, because vast shell wounds reâ€" quire constant and elaborate dressing that absorbhs much time and can be performed only by the surgeon himâ€" self. eggs and costs much less.

Near the ancient wall across the road at Yatung, Tibet, there are some remarkable hot springs, the water in some cases registering boiling point. The afterâ€"cfects of grippe are more to be dreaded than the disease itself. That is because they generally act on weak kidneys and put them out of working order. Sick kidneys are the cause of rheumatism, backache, dropsy and numerous other diseases. The one sure way to avoid them is to keep the kidneys toned up and able to do their work. The best way to keep the kidneys healthy is to use Dodd‘s Kidney Pills. "She had cramps in her muscles, so it was awful hard for her to get around for the longest time.

The match tax was regarded in 1871 as a frivolous mensure, although it was at first favored by Parliament. A procession of tattered matchmakers to Westminster to protest against it gave the coup de grace to the measâ€" ure, but not before trial proofs of the duty stamp printed in a pale blue, and now become very rare, had been prepared. The stamps were to be so pasted on as to be broken by the opening of the match box. Mr. Lowe‘s reason for suggesting it was that the "cost of matches was so inappreciable that they were wasted in a most recklessâ€" and dangerous way." He suggested as the motto for the now stamp "Ex luce lucellum" (out of light a little profit), and he thought this more appropriate than the usual rather watery device of a "Noah‘s Ark." This is not the first time that a British Chancellor of the Exchequer has tried to raise money from the taxâ€" ation of matches.â€" The proposal was put forward by Robert Lowe (afterâ€" ward Lord Sherbrooke) in 1871. He suggested a halfpenny stamp on boxes of 100 wooden matches or less and a penny on boxes of 100 wax matches, or fuses, because they were "more aristocratic." He estimated that the tax would yield for the first year £550,000 ($2,750,000).
