Mrs. A. Quinlaa, Stratford, Ont., is ctoe-'who has tested the Talue of these pllle in trouble of wt>'.i aind. She Eays:â€" "I feel It a duty to let you know what Dr. Williams' Plok Pills have done for me. Some time- ago I suffered severely from Indi- C^estion, which left me run down and nervous. I could neither cat nor sleep well, and decided to consult a doctor. He told me that I was almost blood- less and gave me some medicine, but as it did not appear to help me, I de- cided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pllta. I got three boxes and by the time I had taken them I felt better. I then got three more boxes and when I had taken them I felt like a new woman, and I was again able to do my house- work, and have not since had any re- turn of the trouble." Dr. WiUiams' Pink Pills are sold by all medicine dealers, or will be sent by mall at 50 cents a box by The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. A little booklet "What to Eat and How to Eat" will be sent f.ee to any address for the asking. o The Scarf Maker. In the rear of a little Hindu shop the Bcajf maker works at her profession. Before the sun has tipped the Bom- bay harbor with its silvery caress, she winds her way through the rambling streets to her little den. She does not hurry; Indeed, she walks unseelngly among the few early Itedostrtans; her gaze is turned toward the fast brightening oast. With dreamy eyes she watches the colors as the softer hues gradually giye place to roerat? ones, which in turn become Vermillion. In fancy she is again roaming the rough hills of the Inland country. She tends Uie sheep on the hillside, breathing the sweet fragrance of dew-laden wild flowers. She sees the flash of rhe bird of paradise. Its : gorgeous tall feathers bobbing in the 1 tall grasses. The scream of a parrot '< on a faraway tree makes her eyes dance with appreciation of the wild life. Colors, dew. sunrise â€" ah, living is sher lovelinese! Such remembrances as these quicken her footsteps. There is the Nile-green scarf of the sheerest silky gauze un-j finished from yesterday morning. .\ peacock design of deBoratiou has been I chosen from her portfolio of precious memories. With the tiniest brush she ' applies the paint to the filmy mesh, ! her shapely brown fingers working! deftly and eagerly. j The odor of the i^aint is to her the eweetest of fragrances: and as the de-j sign develops, her dark dreamy eyes â-  shine. The stroke of the brush is now a caress; the shadings become so dell-' cate and so perfectly blended A Comeback wldi Chickens The PlBttcant Task. n* would not do the thing called worit Unless the task were pleoflaot, His duty imiit not bind and Irk, Joy must be ever-present; And so he searched the city througli To find the Job he'd like to do.

Fate is oftentimes cruel in ita manifestations, yet frequently victims of its strokes are compen- sated in such a manner as to reveal that human kindness continues to remain a vital factor in the lives of men. This is the tale of John Cor- bett, of Quibell, Ontario. Quibell is a community on the Canadian Na- tional Railways, west of Hudson, and is one of the entrances into the Ecd Lake Gold Fields. It was there that Mr. Corbett received ?. blow wliich might" well have discouraged any but a scout spirit, and it is at the same Quibell that he i? striving foi-ward towards a remarkable reha- bilitation. John Corbett, at one time section hand on the Canadian National Rail- ways, set out to perform a kindly act one winter's day over a year ago, having undertaken to deliver some groceries to a feeble old woman who resided .some distance from the village. While in the house, Mr. Corbett felt faint, but thought nothing of it as he had occasionally suffered dizzy spells, the result of injuries received while serving overseas with the Canadian Expe- ditionary Forces. He set out on the return journey, but had gone only a short distance when he was over- come and fell unconscious in the anpw. When he later regained con- sciousness and managed to stagger to the house of a neighbor, both hands were completely frozen. It was necessary to send the unfor- tunate man to Winnipeg for treat- ment, but the effect of his experi- ence was such that amputation of both hands followed. Under such circumstances and with such a severe handicap, the fu- ture was not very bright for Mr. Corbett, but the clouds did^Jift and what followed brought the sunshine back to his life. After consultation with represen- tatives of the Department of Colo- nization, Agriculture and Natural Resources, Canadian National Rail- ways, the latter recommended that tlie rjost advantageou."! occupation in which to place Mr. Corbett would be poultry raising. An up-to-uate poultry house was erected last November, while this spring addition.^ were made in the form of -a modem brooder house dbmplete with stove and feed hop- pers. This building is large enough for three to four hundred young chick.s. Mr. Corbett has found a ready market for eggs, and as the hens laid well all winter he has been obtaining some reveniie right from the .start. From this it will be seen that the project is now well established as a going concern. A MEDICINE THAT AU MOTHERS PRAISE ".â- V dianioud is isn't it?"
