That she com- plains of- weakness and depression, feels tired out after a little exer- tion, appetite variable, complains of hadaches and is growing pale. In that case remember that the march of time is leading her on to woman - ...hood, and that at this period a great responsibility rests upon mothers. These are symptoms of anaemia— . that- is bloodlessness, and no time should be lost in increasing and en- riching the blood supply. Unheal- thy girlhood almost always` leads to unhealthy womanhood. All young -girls in their teens need the help of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, which en- rich and increase the blood supply, and give sickly drooping girls the brightness and charm of perfect health. In proof of this Miss Zola Gordier, Morrisburg, Ont., says: "I was pale and bloodless and suf- feredfrom many of the symptoms of anaemia. I would tire easily and suffered from frequent headaches. My appetite was poor and I was very pale and easily discouraged.

The great amount of bvildina activity which is acs ing on in Montreal at the present time has created a tremendous de - 'mend for all kinds' of bnitdin material, and it ie to supply a portion nt the demand for brick that the Canada Brtek Company, Limited, has been incorporated. The company are erecting two plants. nne at Mile End and the other at at. Lambert, the combined rapacity of the two being 15.000:000 bricks per year. .A. there are 325,000.000 bricks used 1n Montreal every year, and aa. the National Brick Company -can .supply but 135,000,000. it means that nearly •2200.�.� bricks are required to be ,brought in from other aourres. THE Canada Brick Company propose manufacturing their bricks by what is known as the sand -lime process, which is regarded as an im• provement on the ordinary bricks made from clay, According to testa madeby Milton Hersey & Company . it is shown that sand•lime bricks 'tire eatml in strength and quality to the best kind of pressed brick, and at the same time possess greater regularity of form and uniformity of dimensions than the ordinary brick. In addition. the briek is impervious to climatic changes, which makes if invaluable in a elimate such as 'WP have in Canada. It is especially suitable for the better grades of build - 'Inge which are being erected in the city of Montreal at the present time. While in a measure the process is a new one it has been rapidly coming into favor with architects and builders. In Germany where it was first discovered in 1880 there are 280 plants in operation at the present time. while in the United States,' where it was introduced in 1901. there are 74 plants manufacturing this class of brick. Canada,haa 10 companies en- ,gaged 'id its manufacture.' • IN Montreal at the present'tiine'high class brick. each -as will be on a par with that being manufactured by the Canada Brick Company. are selling at 1418 per thousand, but the new company expect 'o a preel ie ture brick at V? per thousand, and have put their 'net the prospectus at 842 per thousand, which gives them a good margin • of profit. As a matter of fact, they' have already sold ornr half of their fret year's estimated output at a figure considerably higher than the . 512 mentioned in their prospectus. Placing their output at only two- thirds. of full capacity, the company shows in profits. after payment of dividends and of manufacturing expenses, 536,000, which is equivalent to Deaf; _,ear-the-v�tasrn -'Meek -Aa�-34 ae4a nal --is+ ••ei•:uated-at_-the-- r'e_ latent time. there are no available aunplira of. claymaking brick and other materials mnst be substituted.

I could not bend .my right leg on account of the pain in my hip and knee. I had terrible pains in the region of the bladder.

Some hold that the handwriting is the surest test; some that characters can be sum- med from the shape of__finger-s--and- hand ; others that people's faoes tell their own tale. A Paris doctor, however, declares that the pipe is the best indicator of a. person's ha- bits. The cigar and cigarette are too restricted to .eities to signify much, but the activity of a person, according to this doctor, can be de- termined by the length of his pipe The' shorter the stem, the more in- dustrious' the person.. Inversely, the longerthe stem, the lazier the person.

Report Shows `'that Conditions on the • " whole are Very Satisfactory g says: The spcond fortnightly crop report, published by The Free Press on Thursday, covers 215 points in the three western Provinces and shows that conditions on the whole are de- cidedly satisfactory. One hundred -add forty-six. points report condi- tions excellent, 59 report good and .. • i • .. J... • ..; .•r. Wheat seeding was generally com- pleted by May 20, and it is esti- mated but 5 per cent. of the wheat acreage was not seeded owing to wet weather. This will still be used for coarse grains. In many places wheat is now up from three to six inches. Only 27 points reported the acre- age for wheat actually curtailed by wet weather, and the percentages were small. Stilt there are a suffi- • cient number of these acreages -to reduce the tentative estimate of the ,last report by 5 per cent. This would bring the total area in wheat. -to 11,542,500 acres. The least satisfactory feature of the whole report is the large amount of wheat which has been disced in on the stubble. Planting by this method is very largely eon- -fined to the newer parts of Saskat- ebewan and AIberta, where the :land is new, and should the pre- sent abundant moisture continue r son no doubt large crops will be rea , yen from this indifferent seeding. This- ty-three points report acreage on stubble, running from 40 to, as high as 85 cents. of the whole seeded area. • About 75 per cent. of the oats has - . :. _ :as i . barley. Still it is impossible to form an intelligent estimate of the oat and barley acreage, for depend- ing on the weather, considerable areas of these grains will still be seeded, though the men ho seed ars taking a very long chance. Flax is very much in the same predicament, though there is a little doubt that this acreage, in spite of the weather which still may come, will be largely in excess of last year. A very .gratifying feature of the report is the large percentage of re- ports indicating that farmers stop- ped seeding wheat at or near the right time. There are still far too many points that report seeding wheat after May 20, but they are much less than they were last year. Only two out of 215 points heard from report the need of rain, though a few state rain would be acceptable. 'EXPLOSION KILLS EIGIIT MEN -Six Others Terribly Mangled on C.N.R. Construction.
