iIre the Ones Which Cause the
Greatest Amount of Suffering.
It is every day Ills that distress moat—those which seize you suddenly and make you irritable, impatient and fault-finding. The. root of these troubles lies in thfc blood and nerves, and you cannot get rid of them until the blood has been made rich and pure, and the nerves strengthened and soothed. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will do this, and will do It more speedily and with more lasting results than any other medicine. In proof of this Mrs. James Patterson, Chilliwack, 13.C., says :—"My daughter was in poor health, and her system badly run down. She was pule, suffered from severe headaches, and very nervous. We decided to give her Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and after using six boxes, she is a strong, healthy girl. I gladly recommend the pills in similar cases."
These pills cure all blood and nerve troubles, such am anaemia, neuralgia, indigestion, heart trouble, rheumatism, St. Vitus' dance, partial paralysis, kfdney troubles and the weaknesses which afflict women. Ho sure you get the genuine pills with t*ie full name "Dr. Williams' rink Pills for Pale People," printed on the wrapper around the box. If In doubt, send direct to the Dr. William# ' Mod it in* Co., Itrockvillr, Ont., and the pills will be mailed, rost paid, at 50c. per box, or six boxes for $2.60.

The aborigines of the Malabar Islands employ a perfect whistling language by means of which they can communicate with each other over long distances. A stranger wandering over the Islands is frequently surprised to hear from a hill top tho sound of loud whistling, which is quickly repeated on the next hill, and ho is carried from summit to summit, until ft dies away in the distance. But perhaps the most curious means of communication in the world is the druin-languagc of a Congo tribe.
