Few realize that their misery all comes from the bad state of their blood. They take one thing for their head, and another I their stomach. a third for their nerves. And yet all the while it is simply their blood that is the cause of all their trou- ble. Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills cure all these and other blood troubles because theyectually make new rich, red blood. Mrs. J. H. McArthur, St Thom- as, Ont... says: “Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have done me a world of good. For about. eighteen months I was a constant sufferer. I was terribly run down and the least exertion leIt me tagged out. I slept badly at night and this further weakened me, and finally I had to give up housekeeping and go boarding as I was quite unable to do (my housework. I took doctor’s medi- cine but it was of little or no benefit. One day a neighbor told'me how much benefit she had derived from Dr. Wil- liams’ Pink Pills and advised me to try them. I sent and got three boxes. and hy the time I had used them I could feel a change for the better. Then I got four boxes more. and before they were all gone my health was fully re- stored. To see me now one would not think I had ever been sick for a day, and I can honestly say I owe my re- newed health to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.” Cured Through Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are the greatâ€" est. cure there is for the weakness and tackaches and sideaches of anaemia; all the distress of indigestion; all the pains and aches of rheumatism.

Red Blood (IERIOL’S LONDON MISSION FOR LET- TER CARRIERS. ’ lnslilutc Devoted Entirely to Sleep and entirely to sleep and silence. Such a club has. however, been in existence for many years, and was visited by a repre- sentative oi the London Tribune. who found it established‘ in a somewhat sombre building in Bartholmew close. It is called the City Postmen’s 1 ti- tute, and its members are drawn tom the great staff of postmen employed at St. Martin‘s-le-Grand. It was enveloped in a grave-like silence. There was no sign of tile on the slairways. and the two lower rooms were locked. At the top of the building, however, an open door was found, leading to a small room occupied by eight or ten postmen. CURIOUS SPECTACLE. The room was furnished with Spartan simplicity. A wooden table, a sofa. and a number of canvas deck-chairs prac- tically completed-its equipment. Most of the men had discarded their tunics. Even London? England. with its many mysterious institutions and societies. would probably tail to produce more than one club which is devoted almost. A game of draugllts and a game of dominoes were in progress; a man slept peacefully on the sofa, and most of the deck-chairs also supported sleepers; lhe remainder of the party smoked and read newspapers and magazines. In- tense silence reigned. Dominoes were shullleil noiselessly, papers were turned with the ulmost care, and it a laconic POSTMEN'S SLEEP CLUB (IEYMDN NATURAL GREEN TEA.

Another door was mysterious- ly opened, disclosing more gloom and another row of beds occupied by sleep- ers. The opening of a third door r9 vealed the same curious spectacle. EIGHT HOUR DAY. Subsequent explanations proved that although the actual working day of a. postman employed at the General Post- Oillce does not exceed eight hours, the duty is frequently spread over twelve or fourteen hours, two or three hours 01! work alternating with a similar period or fourteen hours, two or three hours of! work alternating with a similar period of freedom. Most of the men live in the suburbs. and it was in order to pro- vide a place in which they could spend their short spells of rest that the insti- tute was established. Facilities for ordinary indoor recreations are pro- vided, but sleep is the main object of the club, and those who prefer to smoke and read are scrupulously careful not to disturb their fellow members in the bedrooms.
