When RED ROSE TEA was 75c. Ib. - bulk tea at 50c. or 60c. looked cheap, of course. But now that RED ROSE RED LABEL can be bought for at any grocer's, few people will be satisfied to drink bulk tea.

It is the birthright of every child to be sturdy and well to be able to make everyone admire him. Therefore, mothers, If yours Is not attractive it's your fault, not his. He must be ailing and it is up to you to see that he gets relief that he Is given a medicine that will quickly make him well and keep him well. Baby's Own Tablets are especially designed for infants and young child-' ren. There Is nothing to equal them for correcting the irregularities of the stomach and bowels the cause of most of the ills from which little ones suffer. The Tablets are sold by medi- cine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams" Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. A millionaire may be reckoned as one who has an income of not less than $250,000 a year. Britain had 698 such "millionaires" In 1924, but this number had decreased to 497 by 1928. Motor? "uture Run Minus Gas? Autom owners need not fear a shortage of motor fuel, according to Thomas T. Read, professor of mining engineering in Columbia University. Professor Read foresees the possi- bility that the automobilej of the fu- ture may not require liquid fuel. This development he regards as no more improbable than flying was thirty years ago. He says, as quoted in a press bulletin issued by the Univer- sity'^ Department of Public Informa- tion: The only eople who have grounds for immediate worry are the petro- leum refiners, who in 1929 made 420,- 000,000 gallons more gasoline than they could sell, and so had to add it to their already large stock. Gasoline is not the only possible fuel for automobiles, fo- the research men and manufacturers have many oth: - "strings to their bow," we are assured as the discussion Is continued: Motor fuel can be produced by the hydrogenation of coal, and the Leuna plant in Germany hoped to produce 100,000,000 gallons in that way last year. Even In the face of the fact that more ordinary gasoline is being made than can be sold, a number of possi- bilities of substitute liquid fuels are being studied, and en': >uraging pro- gress is being made. Finally, there is the p-ssibllity that the automobile of the fu.ure may not require liquid fuel. It seems Improbable now, but not more improbable than dying through the air seemed thirty years ago. So there is no need for worry. Little Doris: "Mummy, what Is a Civil Servant?" Mother: "It's so long since we had one that I've almost forgotten, darling." The talking pictures have caused a great change in the personnel of the movies. Will television similarly cause some of the popular radio enter- tainers to seek another Held? Travellers Finish 23,000-Mile Trip Travelled Across World to Prove Worth of British Motorcycle Montreal. Fourteen days imprison- ment in Turkey as spies, two encoun- ters with bands of bedouins in the de- sert, who shot at them, and a bird's eye view of the bursting of the Shycot dam ip the Syndh desert, which wiped out villages and caused hundreds of deaths are among the experiences of J. Gill, 31, of Braford, England, ;ind P. Irving. 27, of Melbourne, Australia, world-traversin.sr motorcyclists, who recently arrived in Montreal on the last lap of their 23,000 mile journey. Starting from London, England, on May 13, 11)29, Gill, accompanied by W. r. Stephens, who was later obliged to drop out en account of ill health, went through France, Germany, Switzer- land. Austria, Hungary, Jugo-Slavia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Syria, Irak, Persia, Baluchistan, India, Burma, the Feder- ated Malay States and Australia. At Melbourne he picked up Irving, his present companion, and from there they went to Nr w Zealand, taking a steamer from there to Vancouver. They came here from the Pacific coast and took in a little United States ter- ritory on their way. Arriving at Van- couver on April '24, it took them less than two months to reach Montreal. "The object of our trip Is to prove to overseas motorcycle dealers that British-made machines arj still su- preme," Gill said. "Ours is a Vincent H.R.D. one-cylinder, 4 h.p. machine," he said, "which when the sidecar is loaded, pulls a weight of more than 1,200 pounds. It is, I think, the only one-cylinder machine that has ever been used on a trip around the world." PALE FACES JADED NERVES Due To Weak, Watery Blood. Anaemia impoverished blood comes so stealthily that it is often well advanced before recognized. Fa- tigue and discomfort, the earliest man- ifestations of the trouble, are seldom taken seriously. Soon the face be- comes pale; the nerves jaded; the heart palpitates violently after the slightest exertion; the appetite be- comes fickle and before you realize it you are in a terrible plight. At such time, by enriching and purl- lying the blood Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will build up the nerve cells and correct the run-down condition. Con- cerning them Miss Margaret Torrey, Toronto, Ont., says: "I suffered a complete breakdown. My heart would palpitate on the least exertion. Noth- ing I ate agreed with me. I started taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and by the time I had taken several boxes I was ready for anything; I had gain- ed in weight and every distressing symptom had left me." You can get these Pills from any dealer in medicine or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

The Finishing Touch As the giant liner clipped off the miles on her regular transatlantic Journey, Miss Edith Young and her girl friend reclined on the promenade deck, enjoying the steady rhythmical motion of the mighty monarch of the deep. "I'm so happy I want to tell every- body!" exclaimed Kdlth to her friend. "How is that, Edith?" said her companion. "Well you know how worried Mam- ma aud Dad were about us arriving safely at the boat. Then to come on board here and almost the first thing I saw was a telephone sign inviting me to call home and actually speak from the ship to Mother and Father. (t Just took me about five minutes to get them on the line. My, what a delight It is to leave them knowing that we arrived safely. It's just won- derful." "BELIEVE IT OR NOT" 25 YEARS AGO . when Wilson's Bachelor cigars were first enjoyed bicycling was considered one of the "speediest" of sports. Now after 25 years Wilson's Bachelors are more popular than ever. The wonderful quality of their 100% Havana filler has been steadily maintained and they are foil wrapped. individually foil wrapped and in pocket packs of five WILSON'S BACHELOR S t i II most for the money miracle. Just think that even now, miles at sea we can go to the same "Wonderful, indeed," said hen telephone, and thanks to the genius friend, "but that's only part of the 'and skill of Bell Telephone engineers talk to our parents as easily as from downtown at home. Say, we can't, even be homesick anymore on sea or ' land with the telephone at hand. \ Empress of Japan C.P.R/S Biggest Ship Marble Swimming Pool, Palm Court and Fine Decora- tions An engineering triumph of splendor and efficiency, the Empress of Japan, i largest ship of the Canadian Pacific , Railway's many ocean services, has j become a unit in the largest transpor- tation organization in the world. In j a few days she will leave for the Pa- cific. The railway has staked the millions which have gone Into the largest ship j sailing under the Canadian ensign up- I on the growth of trade and develop- i ment of relations with the Far East. The ship is a worthy portrayal of their faith. Never has such a floating palace been placed on the Far East service, and to Canada is offered the pride of sailing the largest ship on the Pacific, built in Glasgow for a Canadian com- pany, operated by Canadians and with an established Glasgow-to- Montreal i speed record. Though she will be overshadowed by her sister ship recently launched by the Prince of Wales, the Empress of Britain, nearly half as large again in tonnage and even more luxuriously equipped and fitted, yet the Japan will carry the name of Canada into the far routes of trade. The interior decoration is artistic throughout. Deck after deck appears before the eye, a symphony of har- monious finish. For completeness few ships on any route can compete with her. Spectacular Swimming Pool Sunk in a marble setting at the up- per end ot which a golden dolphin spouts a spray of water to the centre of the pool, it is surrounded by a pro- menade. At the lower end is a mod- ernistic-ally designed buffet from which soothing fluids are dispensed to resting bathers. On boarding the ship the first to catch the eye is the Palm court, reach- Ing from side to side aud ceiliuged j with ground glass through which nit-' ers golden light. At the forward end Is the dining salon, the full width of the ship, one end given to a serving stand above which towers a gleaming! mirror in the centre of which is ern-j bedded a tiny clock. A futuristic promenado alley leads to the oak ball room. Here, from a golden stage, the orchestra will be heard. Above It dancers will find a garden, a promenade riotous with col- orful blooms. All lighting Is from concealed fix- tures. Each room, no matter what Its size, is a blending of woods, furnish- ings and fixtures. Two suites, sur- passing that of many hotels and only rivalled in a few instances, have tiny gardens with cool-colored summer fur- niture. All staterooms have green and white tiled bathrooms and all cloth- ing clipboards flood with light as their doors are opened. All staterooms have beds Instead of berths. They also have dressing tables. Minard's Liniment gives quick relief. Tire Antics! There is quite a lot of fun to be had from an old auto tire. It may be used as a swing and tied with a strong rope to a beam overhead, or to the strong branch of a tree. A single rope is sufficient. The one who swings sits on the lower curve with the feet on one side of the tire, and the head above the upper curve, holding to the rope tied around the center of the up- per curve. Such a tire may also be tied over a plunge or swimming pool and used as a spring board. The dive may be made from it cither in a sit- ting or standing position. For a stunt contest at a picnic, camp program or party, the auto tire is full of possibilities. Below are some suggestions; you will think of many others: 1. See who can roll a pair of auto tires, with the hands, to a certain goal within the shortest time. Someone holds a wateh to time each contestant in turn. . 2. See who can roll a single tire the longest distance ahead of him without allowing it to fall. 3. Suspend an auto tire above the heads of the players, and see who can throw a number of different articles through it, without missing. Such ar- ticles as a ball, an apple, a shoe, a horse shoe or a hat may be tossed through it In turn. 4. Roll a tire toward a line of boys and see If each boy on a side (.there should be two sides in this contest) can jump and allow the tire to roll be- tween the legs. 5. Have two persons hold an auto tire on the ground and see which boy can crawl through the tire the quick- est. 6. Place an auto tire around the waist and, with this handicap, time each contestant in a racj to see who can run the fastest to a certain p-'int.
