WEAKNESS I SCHOOL CHILDREN'S FOODl A GOOD START. FOLLOWING DISEASE Can lie Banished by tbe Wonder- ful Tonic Powers of Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills. How often it is that the victims of disease â€" fevers, measles, la grippe or any other contagious ti-oubles are weak and ailing, even after the disease itself has disap- peared. They do not pick up strength as t' cy ought ; remain listless, tired and discouraged. The reason for this is that the blood has been impoverished by the rav- ages of the disease through which Ihe victim has passed. Strength will not return until the blood is enriched. The blood can be en- riched by no other medicine as quickly and as surely as by Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills for Pale People- to enrich the blood and strengthen the nerves is the whole duty of these pillsâ€" thousands have found them beneficial in bringing strength after disease had left them weak and run down. Among those who owe good health to these Pills is Miss Laura Hisco, New Ross, N.B., who says : â€" â- "Following an attack of measles I was left greatly run down and suffered from a bad cough. I was advised to use Dr. Williams' Pink â- Pills and procured half a dozen boxes. Before they were all gone 1 had regained my strength ; my c< ugh had disappeared and I was once more enjoying perfect health." The experience of Miss Hisco is that of many others. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills make new, rich, red blood. This new blood strengthens the nerves and banishes such ail- ments as rheumatism, neuralgia, lumbago, dyspepsia, etc., and brings the glow of health to pale cheeks. The Pills are sold by all medicine dealers or at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock- ville, Ont. HOW THEY ARE FED FOREIGN C0LNTRIE8. IN HAPPY PflUANTHROPIST. Derotes Life to Doing Soiiicthiog for Old and luliriu. The happiest woman in the State of Iowa, perhaps the happiest in the United States, is Mrs. Carrie Holm of De« Moines. Comparatively speaking, she is the greatest phil- anthropist in the country, for she gives her all to the care of the old and infirm people she gathers about her. All through her life she has followed two old sayings of the Bible : "It is better to give than to receive," and "Do unto others as jrou would have others do unto you." Supporting on a meager income five old and infirm people, all well beyond the allotted span of life, furnishes Mrs. Holm the enjoyment of her life. In her little backyard â- he has erected four neat tiny cot- tages, in these live her beneficiar- ies. The members of the little phil- anthropic colony live happily to- ^wr, and their every want is ad- ."nistercd to by this second Mrs. Wiggs, who acually delights in sup- plying their needs. She does their washing, cooks their meals ; in fact, any deed which will brighten their lives, she is ready to perform. None of them is related to Mrs. Holm in any way. They merejy came, and since their coming have had every attention paid them. Hanging on the front door of her little home is a large key. Anyone passing cannot help but see it. This key will open any door at her humble home. If you have no place to sleep, you are welcome to use this key. If no one is at home, you are still welcome to help yourself of the family larder, and there is plenty. Since the date of their marriage, 1875, Mrs. Holm and her husband, who has recently died, have always kept open house. This plan was first practiced in Dexter, la., where the young pair first ma le their home. Mr. Holm was a tailor and Mrs. Holm cared for a little old schoolhouse. _. * U. S.

More children die during ||| the hot weather than at any,, other time of the year. Diar •> rhoea, dysentery, cholera in-"" 4» fantum, and stomach troubles ||[ come without warning, and., when a medicine is not at"» hand to give prompt relief, '[ the delay may prove fatal to , , the child.

It is quoted from it as follows : GEEMANY. Meals are served to school chil- dren in most of the large> cities of Germany. The money is raised chiefly by private charitable enter- prise, but this is supplemented by municipal funds. The work in Ger- many may be considered as relief, except in the schools for the feeble- minded children in Leinzig where a mid-day meal is provided for all children in attendance. Milk and rolls are given in other schools in Leipzig to children who are especi- ally fragile and delicate. These are selected by medical officers. AUSTRIA. In Austrian cities (Vienna, Trieste, Prague) poor children are fed partly by private charitable as- sociations and partly by the use of municipal funds. The municipality furnishes rooms usually in tho school buildingB. BELGIUM. In Liege the municipality has fur- nished soup free for many years to all children in the kindergartens. The benefits of this practice have recently been extended to the chil- dern of the first year's course, and to needy children in the second and third years' courses. In Antwerp food is served to all who wish to buy. There is a chage of five centimes a day in the kinder- garten and ten centimes in the ele- mentary. In Brussels meals are served to indigent children. DENMARK. In Copenhagen meals are provid- ed free for all children who wish them. No questions are raised as to tho economic conditions of the par- ents. One-third of the children in the free schools were reported, in 1905, as taking advantage of this opportunity. The work is admin- istered by an association directly connected with the municipality and recovering from it a yearly grant to supplement the private contri- butions. HOLLAND. Utrecht has since 1904 provided free dinners during the winter months for children designated by the head of school and approved by the proper officials. In other cities of Holland the relief is en- tirely in the hands of charitable organizations, in most cases with- out aid from municipal funds. NORWAY AND SWEDEN. Free meals are provided neces- sitous children by the local authori- ties. In Stockholm, kitchens are constructed in connection with the school buildings in all parishes. In Christiania provision is made for the purchase of tickets by parents who are able to pay about 2% cents per meal, and in some parishes of Stockholm, those who are able to pay are charged about 1 cent for a meal, consisting as a rule of two dishea. In some parishes the poor- est are served a breakfast of milk and bread. In the elementary schools of Stockholm the food is prepared by the pupils in the cook- ing section of the schools. SPAIN. In Madrid an association has re- cently been organized for maintain- ing "school canteens."

One of the most amusing incid- ents of the Whitsuntide holiday in Paris was the fried potato con- test. 10 was held at Bagfolet, a suburb which compares with the Vale of Heath at Hampstead Heath, London. Potato friers to the number ol eighty, with their stoves, lined up before a crowd of several thousand persons in the morning. Each pro- vided his own potatoes and his own butter. At the word "Go!" each man or woman â€" there were fifteen women- chose six potatoes from a sack, peel- ed them, buttered the pan, and be- gan to fry. There were two prizes â€" one for rapidity and one for excellence. Both were won by the same lady, who, amid cheers, asked permission to offer a glass of brandy to each of the judges, most of whom were in danger of collapse from indigestion. + ST. MARGARET'S COLLEGE, TORONTO. Toronto, with its famous Univer- sities, Colleges, Churches, Librar- ies, Art Collections and Museums. IS the great educational centre of Canada. The pupils attending St. Margaret's College have therefore distinct advantages that cannot be ; obtained elsewhere. The teachers; have the same high academic 'stand- ing as those in the great Collegiate Institutes. The attendance of pu- pils is limited ; the classes average ten each; personal attention can thus be given to each pupil.

This is known as costiveness and if neglect- r.a gives rise to dangerous compli- cations. Parraelee's Vegetable Pills will effect a speedy cure. At the first intimation of this ailment the sufferer should procure a pack- et of the pills and put himself un- der a course of treatment.

Barcelona supplies, through re- ligious charitable associations, breakfast and lunch to children who furnish certificates of poverty. SWITZERL.iND. In Zurich the provision of meals is in the hands of the school author- ity of each district, assisted in some districts by chancable organiza- tions. Meals arc given to all under- fed children. Well-to-do parents pay 3 cents a meai. ITALY. In Italy the care of unfed chil dren is, as a rule, in the hands of private institutions, receiving as- sistance from state, provincial and municipal funds. An eixception is Milan, where a central organiza tion connected directly with and administered by the municipality feeds the children.

"Hace you any alarm clocks?" inquired tho customer of a jewel- ler recently. "Yes, ma'am," said the man be- hind Ithe counter. "About what price do you wish to pay for one?" "The price is no object if I can get the kind 1 am after. What I want is one that will rouse the girl without waking the whole f.amil.y." "I don't know of any such alarm clock as that, iiiA'am," said the man. "We keep just the ordinary kind â€" the kind that will wake the whole fainilv without disturbing tho girl." Host: "Have you seen the wed- ding presents, old man?" Guest: "No, not yet." Host: "Well, wait a moment. I'll get one of the detectives to escort you through." SPOILING HIS CHANCE.

Nip Disease in the Bud. â€" It is diflBciilt to eradicate a disease after it has become seated, therefore it is wise to take any ailment in its initial stages and by such remedies as are sufficient, stop ik in its course.

And he knows well enough that she has not done one bit of cooking for a fortnight, and that I have done it all myself I" or COURSE NOT. "Do you keep a servant?" "Never for very long." Relief fcr the Depressed.â€" Physi- cal and mental depression usually have their origin in a disordered state of the stomach and liver, as when these organs are deranged in their action the whole system is af- fected. Try Parmelee's Vegetable Pills. They revive the digestive processes, act beneficially on the nerves and restore the spirits as no other pills will. They are cheap, simple and sure, and the effects are lasting. Pat got a job moving some kegs of powder, and, to the alarm of the foreman, was discovered smok- ing at his work. "Gracious!" ex- claimed the foreman. "Do you know what happened when a man smoked at this job some years ago ? There was an explosion which blew up a dozen men." "That couldn't happen here," returned Pat, calm- ly. "Why not?" " 'Cos there's only me and you !" was the reply. The microscope in the hands of experts employed by the United States Government has revealed the fact that a house fly sometimes carries thousands of disease germs attached to its hairy body. Tlic continuous use of Wilson's Fly Pads will prevent all danger of infection from that source by killing both the germs and the flies.

T'le magnitude of the banquet which the British newspaper men tendered the visiting delegates from the overseas dominions on ,Tune 5, is indicated by the following figures: For the banquet there were provided 100 fowl, 200 duck, 30 turtles, 300 pounds of salmon, r>00 bottles champagne, and 2,000 cigars. Forty chefs prepared tho food, and 300 waiters served it, using 10,000 pLafces and dishes, and 20 tons of china, glass, linen and silver.

If all mothers would avail themselves of so effective a remedy as Dr. J. D. Kellogg's Dy- sentery Cordial many a little one could be saved. This Cordial can be given with safety to the smallest child, as there is no injurious sub- stance in it. We Riant) fact VI re a lin« that rnnst po9iliT«ly t,c uiea by all IraJrs.
