STRENUOUS WORK SOON TELLS ON YOU Business Men andiBreadwinners the Victims of Nervous Exhaustion. When worry is added to overwork men soon become the victims of nervous exhaustion -- neurasthenia -- the doctor calls it. Some have no reserve strength in their systems to bear the strain; others overtax what strength they have. If you And that you are nervous and not sure of yourself, that you sleep badly, and wake up tired and aching, your nerves are out of order. Other signs are inability to take proper interest in your work; your appetite is fickle; your back feels weak, and you are greatly depressed in spirits. One or more of these signs mean that you should take prompt steps to stop mischief by nourishing the nerves with the food they thrive on, namely the rich red blood made by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, Those pills have cured thousands of cases of nervous i/sorders, including nervous prostration, neuralgia, St. Vitus dance J.nd partial paralysis, Here is an examp! Mr. P. H. Callan, a well known business man in Coleman, P.E.I., say; "I owe my present health, If not li itself, to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, had always been an active man, at When I began to run down in health paid little attention to it as I thought r It only a temporary weakness. As time paseed, however, I found myself growing worse, and consulted a doctor, who said that I was not only badly run down, but that my nervous system Was badly shattered. I lost flesh, my appetite was poor, I slept badly and notwithstanding the doctor's treatment grew so weak that I had to leave my business and was confined to the house. Time went on and I was steadily growing weaker, and my friends were all greatly alarmed for my condition. In this condition I was strongly recommended to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and as the doctor's medicine was not helping me I decided to do so. By the time I had used three boxes I could tell that they were helping me. When I had taken eight boxes of the pills I felt able to attend to my business again, and people were surprised to see me out. I continued the use of the pills until i had taken twelve boxes, by which time I was feeling as well as ever I did, and was being congratulated by all my friends on my full restoration to health. I feel now that if I had used Dr. Williams' Pink Pills at the outset I would not only have saved much money spent in doctor's bills, but would have had renewed health sooner. I cannot speak too highly of this medicine, and would recommend it to every man who feels weak, nervous or run down." _.

Every Fruit Blossom Should Be on the Trees to Develop. In spite of careful husbanding of all our agricultural resources, some « oi them may go to waste through deplorable thoughtlessness. The selling of fruit blossoms on street corners may bring joy to winter-weary city dwellers; but it will also interfere with fruit production later on when we most need apples, pears and peaches for their food value. The blossom season lasts but a few weeks each spring, and the flowers are exceedingly short-lived, so that they make but an evanescent decoration at best. There are plenty of other flowers, a host of joyous little folk of the spring woods, which are equal in charm to any florist's offering, and which may be plucked without harmful results. Provided that their roots are left in the ground they will come j up another year with greater vim than ] ever. And for larger sprays and j bank effects the dogwood and the li- 1 lac will grow all the better after se-1 lective cutting of their blooms. Having such a wealth to choose from, there is no excuse for marring the harvest by picking fruit blossoms After all they can best be enjoyed by visiting the orchard itself and bringing back a memory of its perfection of color and perfume which will long outlive a few expatriated sprays of wilted blossoms.
