GROWING BOYS AND GROWING GIRLS Need Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to Give Them Health and Strength. Growing boys as well as girls need such a tonic as Dr. V/illiarns' Pink Pills to keep the blood rich, red and pure and give them health and strength. Mrs. Edward Koch, posto-istrpss at Prince's Lodge, ti. 8., tells the great benefit her little son has derived from the use of this world famous medicine. Mrs. Koch says: â€" "My little son, Reg.n- ald, had been troubled with anae- mia almost since birth. He was al- ways a sickly looking child, with no energy and little or no appetite. His veins showed very plainly through his skin and he had sev- eral serious attacks of stomach and bowel trouble, and on one occasion his life was dispaired of by two doctors who were attending, him. His little body was slowly wasting away until he was nothing morel than a skeleton. He was peevish I and fretful and a misery to him.self. Having read and heard so much of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills I deter- mined to try them in his case, and after giving them to him for a cou- ple of months they certainly work- td wonders with him. T-day he is, fat and healthy looking ; he has a > htarty appetite, is able to play like ether children, and is bright and energetic, instead of dull and lisi- less as he u.sed to be. Dr. Willi- ; ams' Pink Pills have changed my puny, sickly child, into a rugged, hearty boy." I Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured thii sickly boy because they went i down to the root of the trouble in ' bis blood. That is why they never fail. Bad blood is the cause of all common diseases like anaemia, > (bloodlessness) eczema, paleness, headaches, isiligesticn, kidney trouble, neuralgia, rheumatism and the special ailments that only grow- 1 ing girls and womenfolk know. Dr.! Williams' Pink Pills don't bother with mere symptoms, they cure dis-| eases through the blood. They don't cure for a day â€" they cure to ; «tay cured. Do not take any pills i without the full name. "Dr. Wil-I liams' Pink Pills for Pale People," en th« wrapper around each box.

England loved that little story. All the senti- ment in the seemingly phlegmatic Briton rose to applaud it, while Spain, the land of sentiment, re- ceived it but coldly. QUEEN VICTORIA is a devoted mother and spends more time with her two children than is usual with royal parents. She has become so matured in manner and appearance that any trace of the Princess Ena of only three years ago is hard to find. The two little princes are fine boys and she has every reason to be proud of them. Spanish photo- graphers have tried to picture them to her liking, but with small suc- cess, so she "command'' the pres- ence of the English photographer ' V'^'J abundant healtli. young Queen were together, and she casually asked him if he knew much Dutch. i "Yes," he replied, "I am work- ing very hard at it," and taking ' from his pocket a much-used primer he handed it to her. | Greatly pleased, she opened it, I and found scribbled all over the ! bill of his alleged better half.

Dodd's BABY PRINCES OF SPAIN ELDEB ENGUSn IN LOOKS, YOUNGEB BPAMSB IN flPE. EngliKb Mays Introduced Into the Spanish Conrt and iloynl Nursciy. Queen Victoria of Spain, who is still Princess Ena to the tnglish, is contemplating another visit to Lou- don. This time she will bring the latest baby Prince »vsth her and will leave her eldest son, the heir to the throne, in Spain. Queen' Victoria seems unable to tear herself away from English traditions and associations. Eng- lish is the language she speaks to her immediate attendants, English are sonic of tiie nurses who are in charge of the Prince of the Astur- ias and Don Jaime, the latest arri- val, and very English in at! their appointments are the nurseries where her two small sons spend most of their lives at present. Yet the Spanish people do not seem to resent the Queen's loyalty to the language and customs of her own country. They are so proud of her and so proud of the two Priuces she has given them that they are quite willing she and the young King should revolutionize Spanish social life and overthrow traditions of generations past. KING ALFONSO is cosmopolitan in ideas and tattcs. He takes King Edwaid of England as his model and insists upon going about as England's King does, un- ostentatiously and freely. He tries also an anglicize his court and his home life and in appearance he has converted himself into as near an approach to a British citizen as is possible for one so distinctly Latin in type as he is. English suits, hats, ties, waist- Princes must be broutjlit up aeeord- ing to Spanish traditions, but all young Spain is heart and soul with the young Queen. Kidney Pills always make healthy Kidneys.
