RELIEF FROM INDIGESTION The Most Common Cause of This Trouble ls Poor Blood All conditions of depressed vitality lend lo disturb the process of digestion, There is not a disturbed condition of life that may not affect digestion. Hut few catiucs of the trouble arc so common as thin, weak blood, ft affects directly and at once the process of nutrition. Not only is the action of the gastric and intestinal glands diminished, but the muscular action of the stomach is weakened. Nothing will more promptly restore digestive efficiency than good, red blood. Without it the normal activity of the stomach is impossible. Thin, pale people who complain of indigestion must improve the condition oi their blood to lind relief. Thc most active blood builder in such cases is Dr. Williams Pink Pills. They make the rich, red blood which quick- ly restores thc digestive organs to their proper activity, and the dyspeptic who has hated the sight and smell of food now looks forward lo meal time with pleasure. As proving the value of Dr. Williams Pink I'ills in curing indigestion, Miss Edith AI. Smith, R. R. No. 4, Perth, Out., says: "I can honestly say I owe my present good health to Dr. Williams Pink Pills. My stomach was terribly weak and I suffered from indigestion and sick headache, and was always very nervous. I was troubled this way for nearly llircc years, and in that time took a great deal of doctors' medicine, which, however, did not help inc. 1 could not cat anything without experiencing thc most agonizing pnin. My sick headaches were mosl violent and I could not rest night or day. I was asked one day by a friend to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills, and consented to do so. Afler taking them sonic time 1 found they wcrc helping ntc, and I continued to take them steadily for several months, until 1 found that I was completely j^urcd. While taking the pills, I gained both in strength and weight) and 1 feci il impossible to praise Dr. Williams Pink I'ills loo highly." You can procure these pills through any dealer in medicine or by mail, post paid, at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50, from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockvillc, Ont. The Market Report Weekly Grain Letter Supplied by Randall, Gee & Mitchell, Ltd., Winnipeg There is onc feature of the present wheal situation that is of the utmost importance, and the one that, undoubtedly, is the cause for the persistent Strength of the market at llic high level. It is lo bc nolcd that since the inceptive of lhe advance lhe situation has grown steadily more bullish, 'This is a development oul of the ordinary, as it is generally being discovered, afler the agitation has subsided and lhe early reports have to be compared with ihc actual outcome that the scare exaggerated conditions, No one .can say lhal lhal is lhc case this season, for it can be said that '.Ihe rllll of news which affected crop"jiroihiclioii is slill favorable in high prices, Whatever other Influences have entered inlo ihe trade calculations arc influences that arc based on lhe possibility of lhe world's supply of bread Bluffs being augmented by lire'Russian surplus liirougli successful military' operations of 'he Entente Powers*. ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ The foundation of lhc presenl bull market ''vns-.lald, of course, in the heavy winter,loss in tlio soft wheal slates. Ai lhal lii'ue, llic liberality of the world's entry over from lhe generous l'H5,harvest was a drag on any permanent market response, li wan lhe time when lhe statistical position of lhe wheal hung' heaviest on the market, Importers bad the utmost confidence of obtaining adequate supplies and felt lhal lhcy had lhc real advantage in ihc market, Il was lhc greal heal wave of July and ils heavy toll of lhe spring wheat crop that gave the real impetus lo lhe bull market. The winter wheal harvest was moderate, and on the top of thai came a mosl unfavorable Northwest harvest. From thai lime on, Ihc developments have been towards a reduction of the world's wheat production. The yield in thc United Stales allows only a small reserve above the country's needs, and a surplus available for the export, even with lhe carry ovcr of last season, is small when the conditions governing the. international market arc taken into account. The latest reports from Canada indicate a decided shrinkage from expectations, and the news from the other surplus countries do not suggest at this writing more than ordinary yields. It is not expected that importing countries will increase their production under the. abnormal conditions that prevail. In fact, the reports arc unfavorable. The requirements from exporters will be large this season, and exporting counlries in the aggregate have far less lo give than last year. Whether prices have fully discounted this extraordinary situation is a mailer of debate between the bulls and the bears. The situation has not been exaggerated.

Bruce Walker, Commissioner of Immigration for the Dominion of Canada, iu a newspaper interview. People considering moving into Canada from across thc border," Mr. Walker continues, "have been told that llicy*were in danger of conscription, and would be subject to enormous war taxes. In answer to this, it may bc said that the Government has definitely promised that there will be no conscription in Canada. Furthermore, the subject of another country cannot bc conscripted, and three years' residence in Canada is necessary before a man can become a Canadian citizen. Even the most pessimistic hope and expect that before the. end of three years the great war will bc ended. "There is no special war lax in the West, nor is there likely to bc any. A war tax to bc effective would have to bc on lands. By thc constitution of Canada, only provincial governments can impose taxes on land, and the Federal government, which is financing Canada's participation in the war, cannot interfere.

Viewing Battle Scenes "A _ solemn panorama" is the description given by a woman after viewing lhc Soinnie films shown in London. Whether it is desirable to show actual battle scenes to the home public had been questioned, but, as one visitor said, "What our heroes cau bear to suffer we can bear to scc." There is nothing in lhis display to harrow the feelings or distress those who have lost beloved Relatives in the war. The devotion of ihc Empire's young manhood, ihe majestic offering of Britisii labor, arc rea.izcd in every detail of the victorious advance. The huge guns which tore up the German trenches arc pictured in action, and their effect is seen, nol only in columns of smoke and volcanic upheavals of the soil, but in the panic-stricken, woc-begone faces of the German prisoners. The legend of German invincibility is destroyed for ever. Sonic critics object to lhc scenes showing lhc wounded in doctors' hands at the dressing station. The authorities are wiser. "Look here and here," they arc saying; "know what your heroes arc enduring, and show yourselves worthy of their sacrifice." nc!, call up a picture that transcends lhc imaginings of fiction, The Homeric talc of the great hollow horse by which lhc Greeks tricked the Trojans and look llieir besieged rily, is far outdone; and so are all ils successors whether real or imagined. The "tank" is, no doubt, a caterpillar tractor of greal size and power. It musl be much larger than the peaceful American' machines, or it could not cross trenches. Already peace, says the New Vork Times, which proceeds to pay the following tribute to' Britain and the British: ,, "Where the British had been pushing, ihe Germans back by the yard, they arc now pushing them back by lho mile. It is not due to any langor ill the German defence, cither, for the Associated Press reports show that llur Kai'cr's men arc doing their best, which all thc world now knows to be a doughty best.' The Germans arc being beaten back because they cannot stand. Some of the scientific German critics rcporled lhat the new llritish army was not the equal of the oh! one, almost wiped out at the he- ginning of lhc war. If this is true lhc old army must have been superhuman; or perhaps the scientific German critics arc wrong. "The ualurc of the ground makes no difference; when lhcy occupy ad- vaulagcous crests the British drive' lhe Germans before them, and then descend and fight on slopes with the same result. Everywhere the Germans give way before them, not because they have weakened their resistance for strategic reasons, but because after fighting their hardest there is nothing left for them to do. Over their wonderful defences goes thc new British invention, born of necessity, the armored car that can ride over chasms. But it is nqt any scientific invention that has driven thi Germans back; it is thc manhood of the United Kingdom and its colonies, maligned by stay-at-home critics for two years and now giving a terrific answer. "'England will fight to the last Frenchman.' 'Everybody fights but John Bull.' What has become of those comfortable slurs from easy chairs and typewriter desks? It was so easy to make them, while a democratic nation with a little army, caught unprepared because its people had been afraid of 'militarism,' was seeing its reviled soldiers die in vain. It has lakeu that democratic nation long to raise an army equal to Germany's under fire, but no longer than it would take another democratic and ur.mili- tary nationï¿½ï¿½ï¿½say, for instance, the nation from which so many of those easy slurs havc come. "Thc 'contemptible British army' has become the terrible Britisii army. In vain tiie Kaiser stirred his men 'to prove once more that Germany is invincible.' Before the slow British the Germans arc giving miles where they once gave yards. 'Vour duty is to break the English offensive,' but the American claims to the credit for Ihc [duty is unfulfilled, and it is thc Ger- lnvcntion of the "lank" arc heard on I man defensive which is being broken. all siilcsr.

U. 1127 Calls for Vengeance Maori Member of New Zealand Parliament Makes Striking Speech A_ striking speech was made at the closing session of the House of Representatives of the Dominion Parliament at Wellington, N.Z., by Dr, Pomare, a member of the Cabinet and a Maori. A resolution was be fore the House expressing the Parliament's inflexible determination to "continue the war lo a successful end," when Dr. Poniarc arose and said: "Today Aegean breezes stir the grasses ovcr lhe graves of mine and yours, and wherever a Maori hear the moan of the wind, whenever he hears the boom of guns it remind; him that away beyond the seas ulu (revenge) has got lo be brought about for lhc dead. For that reason the Maori's determination to end lhc war victoriously is just as inflexible as that of the pakeha (white man). One result of the war will bc the cohesion of the Empire and the understanding between the different races under the British flag. The spirit of Rcwi and of other big fighters lives in the Maori today, and he erics hi the same spirit of defiance, 'Akc, akc, ake!' (for ever and for ever)." In piling for vengeance for the Maori dead Dr. Poniarc had particular reference to lhc handful of soldiers of his race who, with a few while New Zealandcrs, reached, after desperate fighting, and held for a few minutes during thc Suvla Bay operations, a position from which they could see the central Dardanelles. This, it is said, was the utmost point reached by any of the allied troops in the Gallipoli campaign.
