Owing to the frequency of accidents iu this locality of late, a
wise move would be to have
located at different points on the
outskirts of the town, stretchers
to facilitate the removing of the
injured to the ambulance. At

obsolete, and most excruciating to
the injur* 1. Not long ago a most

GARNETT CLAY PORTER,
Managing Editor ol the Calgary Herald.
Qamott Clay Porter is a Kentucklnn
by birth and a Canadian by adoption
The combination is a fortunate one, if
unusual, nnd tho result bus been the
publication of one of the brightest
unil most up-to-date newspapers in
Western Canada, "Tho Calgary Herald." Qametl Clay Porter is generally
referred to ns Colonol Porter—as
much on account probably of the state
ol which he is n son ns because of the
tact thai lie ivns n mombor ol tho military stuff ol tho Governor, A gentle-
mnn with tho noino Gnrnett Clay Porter—and ii Kontuokian—hat n traditional right to tho titlo of Colonel
and the world admits it.
There is nothing particularly belli

nets ol manner of tho doscondant ol
tho owners of Blnvo-mannod plantations, but he doesn't require n moustache nnd ohln-whiskor, a sonilircru,
uml n fondness for mint juleps to be
almost iiiii'oiisi'iiiusly addressed as Colonel. Without these attributes, the
hall-marks ut oonvontional beliof, Clur-
nett Clay Porter, editor of n paper
published In Inr off western Canada
is reoognitod, greeted, and made
friends with n* Colonol Porter, ol the

A SPRING TONIC.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills  Make Rich,
Red.   Health-Giving   Blood.
Cold winter mouths, enforcing close
conliiioment in over-heated) badly ventilated rooms—in the homo, in the
hop, nnd in tho school—sap tho vitality oi the strongest, Tho blood be-
cniiit's otoggod with impurities, the
liver sluggish, the kidneys wonkened,
sleep i* nut restful—you awake just
as tired ns when yuu wont to bed]
vou aro low-spirited, perhaps hove
headaoho and blotchy skin—tlmt is the
condition ol thousands ol people every
spring, It ciimes to all unless the
blood is fortified by o good tonic—by
Dr. Williams' I'inli l'ills, These pills
not only banish this feeling but thev
guard againsl the moro sorions ailments tvliicli usually follow—rl mutism, nervous debility, anaemia, indigestion nnd kidney trouble, Dr. William-*' l'ink I'ill* are an ideal spring
medicine, Every doso makes new,
rich, red blood, Every drop of new
blood helps to Btrongthen the overworked nerves. Overcome" weakness
nml drill's the germs of disease from
tho body. A thorough treatment
gives ynu vim mul energy to resist the
torrid heat ol tho coming summer.
Mr. Mink A. Meiiso, Sluice Point,
.VS., says: "I was sn completely run
iloivn that I could bnnllv work. I decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,
n* I liml heard them highly spoken of,
mul a few hoses worked a great
chango iu my condition, I inn again
feeling as ivoll ond string a* ever I
did iind can recommend the pills to all
ivcnli people."
It is n mistake tn take purgative"
in the spring. Nature cull* bar a nied-
ieino to build up the wasted force—
purgatives only woaken. It i* a medicine to net on the blood, not one to
act on the bowols, which is necessary.
