^ mmsmiim >i"iim A MOTHER'S TRIAU Care of Home and Children Of- ten Causes a Breakdown. The woman at home, deep In house- hold duties and the cares of mother- hood, needs occasional help to keep her In good health. The demands upon a mother's health are many and severe. Her own health trials and her children's welfare exact heavy tolls, while hurried meals, broken rest and much indoor living tend to weak- en her constitution. No wonder that the woman at home is often indisposed through weakness, headaches, bacK- iches and nervousness. Too many women have grown to accept these visitations as a part of the lot of motherhood. But many and varied as her health troubles are, the cause is ilmple and the cure at hand. When well, it is the woman's good blood that keeps her well; when ill she must make her blood rich to renew her health. The nursing mother more than any other woman in the world needs rich blood and plenty of It. There is one always unfailing way to get this good blood so necessary to perfect health, and that Is through the use of Dr. William*' Pink Pills. These pills make new blood abundantly, anci through their use thousands of weak, ailing wives and mothers have been made bright, cheerful and strong. If you are ailing, easily tired, or depress- ed, it is a duty you owe yourself and your family to give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fail trial. What this medicine has done for others it will surely do for you. O Little Folk. O Uttl* Folk, the snmmer sun is wan- ing: On bush aad tree the leaves are turning fast. O Little Folk, the winds will be com- plaining Of winter soon and sighing for the past. Then copse and dell and every hazel hollow Will see no more your nttle twluk- ling fee Lzy dan follow 'k In mazy dance, and, lonely, I shall The olden trail and find it bitter- sweet. O Little Folk, no more the lilt of laughter Will shake the dew from the ane- mone, And moons shall come and moons shall follow after Ere life and love shall kiss each waiting tree. â€" Ernest H. A. Home. ft Has Come True. As Jerusalem, previous to being cap- tured by the British in December, 1917, had been under Turkish misrule tor four hundred years, it was thought by the natives of Palestine It would forever remain in the hands of the Turks. Hence the old saying common amongst the inhabitants of the Holy Land, which runs: "When the waters of the Nile flow into Palestine the Turk will be ousted from Jerusalem." As geography tells us this is impos- sible, it is interesting to know it act- ually did happen. What seemed im- possible was effected by the Engineers of the Egyptian Expeditionary Force. After overcoming great difficulties, they succeeded in laying a large water pipe across the bed of the Suez Canal near Kantara. Through this pipe flows water from the River Nile. The water eventually finds its way through the Slnal Desert and into Palestine. Thus it carae to pass Jerusalem was taken two months after "the waters of the Nile flowed into Palestine." The Workings of Conscience. The American who was touring Eng- land had been boasting again in the village Inn. "Talking of scarecrows," he said, "why, my father once put one up, and I it frightened the crows so much that not one entered the field again 'for more than a year." He looked triumphantly round his | audience. Surely that bad settled these country bumpkins ! But he was to meet his match. "That's nothing!" retorted a farmer. "A neighbor of mine once put a scare- crow into his potato patch, and it ter- rified the birds so much that one ras- cal of a crow that had stolen some po- tatoes came next day and put them back." {. CHILDiOD JOIISTIPIITIOII Constipated children can find prompt relief through the use of Baby's Own Tablets. The Tablets are mild but a thorough laxative which never fail to regulate the bowels and stomach, thus driving out constipation and In- digestion; colds and simple fevers. Concerning them Mrs. Gaspard Dalgle, Demaln, Que., writes: "Baby's Own Tablets have been of great benefit to my little boy, who was suffering from constipation and indigestion. They quickly relieved him and now he Is In the best of health." The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a blx from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., BrockviUe, Out. . ROYAL PROCLAMATION "Fire Prevention Day" for Canada on October 9, 1919. j Whereas it is shown by reliable statistics that the amount of the average annual loss of property by fire in Canada exceeds twenty million dollars, the loss for the year 1918 be-j ing in excess of thirty million dollars,' and that there is in addition a large annual unappra.:sed loss from forest fires which, if unchecked, threatens to greatly impair, if not to entirely des- troy, our heritage of fore.st wealth; And whereas, there is also every year in Canada a deplorable loss of human life as a result of fire; And whereas, it is desirable for the well-being of the nation that a greater regard for the sanctity of human life be inculcated; that the ma- terial wealth of the nation be so far as possible conserved, and that every agency which tends to needlessly dis- sipate or destroy human life or pro- perty be vigorously opposed; And whereas, it is authoritatively estimated that at least seventy-five per cent. ">f 'he fires occurring are preventable by the exercise of proper care on the part; of individual citizens, and that therefore a corrcdpodding proportion of the annual loss from fire can be avoided; And whereas, it is desirable, in order that the attention of the public may be directed to the extent of the preventable loss of life and property from fire and the best means of con- trolling it, that one day of the year be set aside and properly decignated for the (Hsaemiination of such informa- tion and the giving of such instruction on fire loss and fire prevention as may be practicable; â€" Now know ye, that we, by^nd with the advice of Our Privy Council of Canada, have thought fit and do ap- point Thursday, the Ninth day of Oc- tober in this present year, as "Fire Preventiop Day" and we do recom- mend to 'all our loving subjects that, on that day, â€" 1. All dwellings and their surround- ings be carefully inspected by their occupants and all conditions likely to cause or promote the spread of fires removed. 2. All public buildings, stores and factories be inspected and cleared of rubbish. 3. Fire drills be held for tJie chil- dren in all schools and for employees in all large stores and factories. 4. Special instructions on the sub- ject of fire prevention be given by the teacher and by municipal officials in the schools and that such appropriate literature as may be mada available be distributed to the pupils Seeing on the Water. At a height of one foot from the water an object can be seen at 1.32 miles ; at six feet elevation the range of vision is increased to 3.23 miles, while at 10 feet the horizon is in- creased to 4.16 miles.

There Is quite an Interest displayed by breeders and dairymen all over this country in molasses as supplementary feed. There is no question but that its use on the farm is spreading in such proportion as to make It In- teresting for our readers to know something about the feeding value of j molasses, its effect on the live stock, etc. First of all, it must be borne in mind that molasses may be divided into as many classes as hay. Simply to say molasses Is not saying much. There seems to be very little of beet molas- ses used in straight form as a feed for live stock as in the case of sugar cane molasses. It seems that beet molas- ses contains too much ash, and it acts as a purgative. There is also sugar cane molasses which does not quite come up to standard of a feeding mo- lasses. There Is the re-boiled molas- ses with a good deal of sugar extract- ed. There is the domestic molasses with sulphur dioxide marked on bar- rel. It seems that the safest molasses is the original pure sugar cane molas- ses. A good molasses should test 52 per cent, sugars and not over 6 per cent. ash. The flavor of the molasses is also important. It may often hap- pen that the same testing molasses is not the same tasting. It would seem that the most im- portant use of sugar cane molasses is in connection with the disposal of roughage on the farm. It is surely the most practicable way of making feeds palatable and digestible. The usual method is to thin the molasses with water so that It runs as freely as cream and to pour it over dry corn fodder, straw, old hay, etc. A sprink- ling can with the holes enlarged, often proves very handy. Some find it well to grind up their roughage and mix the molasses with roughage and grains. This Is the best method, for, besides the grain^ which may be subs- tituted pound for pound to that of molasses, the roughage also replaces much of the grain. Of course the handling of molasses Is different from that of other feeds and for that reason a number of live stock owners refused to feed it, but those who are aware \V'hat benefits can be derived through the judicial feu<lint', of molhsses will soon find a convenient method of feeding it, and will not be without it. About three pounds a day is the average amount prescribed for cows. Horses are fed from 2 to 6 pounds per day according to the amount of energy or work required from them. Swine benefit on ^ pound per day per 100 lbs. of live weight. Calves are fed from % to 1 cupful per day. A good molasses will please the animal and make it more fit for maxi- mum production whether it be fiesh or work. It will keep the bowels in good order and prevent ailments due to indigestion. It produces a sleek coat. .\ progressive live stock owner should always have some on liand. â€" Michigan Business Farming. .J, Save Some Seeds. Every grower of vegetables should make an effort to select some speci- men vegetable plant from the crop and mark it especially for seed pur- poses. In England and France it Is a general practice among growers and small holders to save some seed. Seed taken from the best specimens will generally give a good percentage of yield the following year. Some species of vegetable will not pro- duce seed in Canada as the seasons are too short and muturity cannot come to perfection, but carrot, pars- nip, lettuce, peas, beans, raddish, squash, corn, marrow, pumpkin, onions, can be relied upon if the seed Is selected from the first crown and not the latest seed vessels.

Deeds of heroism on their part are not to be recorded here, but it is well known that they played their part fearlessly and well To perpetuate the memory of the Varsity men and women who died in defence of civilization during the Great War it is proposed to erect a Physical Memorial, and also to es- tablish scholarships and a War Memorial Lectureship. A memorial tower built in architectural harmony with the surrounding buildings, con- taining a beautiful chime of bells, will connect the west wing of the Univer- sity of Toronto with Hart House, the magnificent new gymnasium and students' union, the centre of under- graduate life in the university. LISTEN TO THIS I SAYS CORNS LIFT RIGHT OUT NOW joining the tower will be a memorial hall, and in It the names of all stu- dents and former students who served in the war will be recorde^Sn a worthy setting. The establishment of the scholar- ships, however, will take the larger portion of the $500,000 to be secured. These will be apportioned among the different faculties for the aid of those returned soldier-students and their children who are In need of help, and will be given to soldiers who were alumni and to their dependents. Loans will also be mad(» to soldier- students who could not otherwise com- plete their education. The decision to use the funds in this way was reached after a thorough canvass was made throughout Canada. Every graduate and former student is to have the opportunity of contribu- ting to the fund. As far as possible the canvass will be by personal solici- tation. In some centres this has been started and in others it is about to be undertaken. By the latter part of October the campaign will, it is hoped, be in operation throughout the world and will have become the biggest thing of Its kind ever attempted, having re- gard to the extent of the field to be covered. In Ontario the county unit will be used and organization along these lines is proceeding rapidly. The county canvass will centre In logical places and in this way It Is hoped to reach practically every graduate and former student. Counties and local communities have the privilege of establishing a scholar- ship for their own students provided that a sutHcient amount is raised. ^ Klnard'B Untmant Owctu Bnma. tto.
