GOOD DIGESTION A SOURCE OF HEALTH When the Stomach is Out of Or- der the Whole System Suffers. Indigestion is one of the most dis- tressing maladies afflicting mankind. When the stomach is unable to per- form the work nature calls for, the re- sult is severe pains after eating, nau- sea, heartburn, fluttering of the heart, tick headache, and often a loathing for food, though the sufferer is really half starved. People with poor digestion, too, frequently try all sorts of experi- ments to aid the process of digestion, but there is only one way in which the trouble can actually be cured, that is i through the blood. That is why the \ topic treatment with Dr. Williams' 1 Pfci: Pills cures even the most obstin- ! ate cases of indigestion. They make i rich, red blood that strengthens the ! stomaeh and the nerves, thus enabling it to do its work. The process is sim- 1 pie, but the result mean.s good appetite and increased health and pleasure in life. In proof of these statements, Mrs. Albert Hall, Sonya, Ont., says: "I have used Dr. Williams' Pink Pills with wonderful results. For two years I was a great sufferer from indiges- tion, which almost made me a physical ' wreck. At times my sufferings were ' so great that I was unable to attend to my household duties. I had smoth- ' ering spells at times and was afraid I to lie down to rest. After every meal, no matter how sparingly I ate, I suf- fered great distress. I tried several I doctors but their medicine was of no ' avail. I saw Dr. Williams' Pink Pills advertised to cure this trouble and de- cided to try them. I had not been ; taking them long when I felt some- what improved. This improvement continued and after taking ten bo.xes I could eat and digest all kinds of food and felt better than I had done ; for years. You may be sure I am very grateful for the wonderful relief these pills have given me. I know they are also a cure for anaemic sufferers, as : an intimate friend of mine was badly affected with this trouble and after, taking several boxes she was entirely . cured." I You can get these pills through any | dealer in medicine or by mail, post paid, at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. j .MAX HARDEN TELLS THE TRUTH j : Germans Driven Like Flock of Sheep j by a Merciless Shepherd. ; Underground runiblings in Germany ' have grown in intensity, like the Brit- ish artillery fire, within the past few weeks. The real import is conveyed j by the only man in Germany still out of gaol who has the courage and the ^ opportunity to speak the truth. | In a late number of his Govern- ment-defying weekly review. Zukunft, Herr Maximilian Harden has a re- . markable article entitled "Those Un- derground." It is a straight-from-the- shoulder attack on the Government and the War Party's fear to unmuzzle public opinion. Written on the eve of the Socialist Liebknecht's sentence and the suppression of th° Liberal- Radical Berliner Tageblatt for merely demanding afreeh the right to discuss "our war aims," Harden's ar'^icle is proof that the crusade to face the pre- sent facts about the war â€" Germany's hopeless fight for peace on her terms â-  â€" is a strong and growing movement. I Without at all exaggerating its im- 1 portance it is undoubtedly a manifest- ation of no little promise and encour- agpment. The significance of the crusade for the truth lies in the identity of the Come Out of the Kitchen. It is the closed season for the bake-oven. Banish kitchen worry and work.

Prince Albert was seen recently coming out of a Regent Street (Lon- don) shop, and as ihc girl commis- sionaire swung open the door for him he saluted and thanked her. Our royal sons have been brought up to the highest notions of chivalry towards all women. When Prince John was a tiny boy he always raised his cap to a flower-woman who had her basket in Buckingham Palace road. It is record- ed that the Queen said: "I'm very pleased; I like my boys to respect all women." entrenched positions against vastly superior numbers of infantry. No army in modern warfare can advance much beyond the range of its heavy guns, nor any faster than they can be brought up to prepare the way. Those who conceive of the so-called "big push" as one great continuous movement along the whoie front cher- ish an uninformed conception of the true situation. The big drive now tak- ing place is the composite result of many smaller drives. The main sig- nificance of this movement lies in the fact that these small pushes are a part of a co-ordinated plan, including the Italian, Russian and Balkan fronts with the western. The British drive between Arras and the Somrae is not the hurling of an army of over 2,- 000,000 men again.st the German lines as interpreted by some of the headline writers in the paper.s. This vast army will not be hurled en masse. So far as developed, it is primarily a powerful, localized attack intended to relieve pressure at Verdun. At least, that appears to be its object, but also to realize such strategic gains as will lead to further successful offen.sive movements after adequate preparation ' for them. ; In choosing the sector south of Ar- ras for the attack, the British greatly j surprised their foe. The sector north of .Arras has been the favorite fighting ground because the positions held by the British are within close reach of important strate- gic points in the German front, Vimy- Ridge commands the plains that sur- round Douai and Lens, The capture of these cities would seriously menace Lille, and the fall of Lille would de- moralize the military organization of the Germans along the -Artois front. But by striking south of Arras the strongly defended region north of it may be weakened, and the way pre- pared for a second blow that will prove more effective than those hither- to dealt on the sector from .\rra3 to La Bassee. The significant thing is that the in- itiative on all the fronts is now with the .Allies â€" and this for the first time since the war began. It looks as though the first .sen- tence in the first paragraph of the last chapter is being written, and the doom of the Hun is sealed. Let us hope that the end is near. THE SELKIRK TUNNEL. Will Cost the C. P. R. $12,000,000 at the Least. The Selkirk tunnel will be through in the fall, according to the CP.R. of- ficials. This is another of the notable things to which the company has put its hand â€" a tunnel six miles through a mountain whose peaks pierce the clouds â€" a tunnel which presented en- gineering difficulties almost unique. This work will give the public an alternative route through the moun- tains; it will save six miles of snow sheds; it will eliminate danger, and it will minister to the comfort and convenience of the public. The cost will be $12,000,000 or more. That is about the only big work the CP.R. has been engaged in lately, but it is in- teresting to recall that in the years before the war the company used to spend between $25,000,000 and $35,- 000,000 per annum in the development of the West. If, as a high official of the CP.R, remarke<i, the CP.R, took a dollar out of the West, it put that dollar back again in some form or other. It would hardly be believed, hut the CP.R,, since its inception, has spent over $200,000,000 in the develop- ment of the West, ; Precautionary.
