which took part in the latest raid on England are ei an enormous new type, much larger than any ever be (ore seen."

fications ot the new s\tper~Zeppelins. These serial monsters have it vol- ume nt 32,000 cubic metres each. and instead oi’ being cigar-shaped, have the form of o huge dsh.

The Zeppelins are driven by eight

300-horsepower motors, and are cap- 8b\'2 Ol’ 8 Slleed 0( seventy-tive miles an hour. Tho ordinary speed of the hit: boiioons is sixty-tive miles an hour. The nirshlps are equipped with three propeilers each, and are covered with a sclcntitlc aluminum llflllll which rcnilers them as ncai-ly invisihln as possible.

HE LAUGHED.

The Senator and the .\iajor were

walking up thc avenue. The Senator was more than middle-aged and con- siderably more than fat, and dearly as the Mayor loved him. he also loved his joke.

The senator turned with a pleased

expression on benign countenance und said; "Major, did you see that pretty girl smile at me?"

"Oh tliat's nothing,” replied his

t'i'ienii. "The first time I saw you T laughed out loud."

CAN’T BE DID

The following in stipposcd to bc n

true illustration ot tiic conceit of the Kaiser:

During an inspection oi’ thc German

troops on a certain scctlnii of the hot- tie front by his imperial Majesty, a licavy rainstorm bad flooded the trenches to a good depth. On the inspection being completed. the l(aiser’¢i apparel was partly covered with mud. and his boots considerab- ly watt-rsoaketl. One of his oiiicers iii attendance. noticing him walking back and forth. hands clasped behind liiin. with a worried expression on his face. drew near and heard His Ma- jesty repeating the words “He never did it." Fearing the strain of the war was aifecting the emperors mind. he made bold to enquire the cause oi the trouble. and the Kaiser. with a fierce glance. answered: "They say He walk- cd upon the water, but I don`t believe it: i tried it, and i couidn't do it."

WOMEN VOLUNTEERS.

i-‘or several weeks it has been urged

in the-se columns, says The Guardian Courier iii its last issue, that the time luivc arrived when we should actively ht-gin a volunteer movement to pr0~ vide women to tal-te the places of men in the public services, stores and else- where. Last week a number of the leading women of Military Districts No. 1! met in Toronto and organized a \\'omen's Emergency Corps with this object in view. Local branches will be formed iii the different countries, towns and cities. are thousands of men doing work which women could do. The Govern- mont offices at Ottawa and at all the provincial capitals contain many clerks who should be in khaki. and for wliuni women could bt- substituted.

"Tho banks have begun the great

work ahead of the nations. and have been taking on many women. The dc- partment .stores arc it littlc slower, but the process has begun. The male sccliool-teaeliers are doing well. But o.iou1 ~otzuu_) iiioqiinoitii ‘s:.'mt_|io-isroil :iiii ix; ‘eiduinxo .io_.| 'untn .ioj nom -on 'ziiiiinitisqiifi jo iiinmoaotn out time

“.\'ow that the Government has call-

.-ti for 500,000 men, it is up to them to the movement is still in embryo. Can- :ida will need 200.000 more men work- crs than it now has, if the men are to be released for lighting.

“t`aiiiidian women are only beginning

to i-eiilize what the women of England lcariii-d twelve months ago, and the wniiieii iii I~‘i'sut-e oven earlier. The iiccessity for a great volunteer move- mciit has only recently become ap- parcnt. it is now timeto organize it.'

TONIC TREATMENT

FOR THE STOMACH

Ti-is MODERN ME1'Hoo is iviosr succsssrut iN 'rnEATiNc. iNoioEs‘r_ioN.

The olii-fiishioiietl methods of treat

ini; indignation and stomach trou- ities arc being discarded. The trou- lilo with thc oid~ftishioned methods was that wiicn thc treatmgiit was stopped thc trouliii- rotitrncd in an :iugrtivainii form. The modern mot- liod of curing indignation and other stomach troubles is to tone up the stomach to do nat.ure's work. Every str-p towards recovery oi the appe- tite, the disappearance ot pain, the absence of gns.- are all steps on the road to health that those who have tried the tonic treatment re- member distinctly. Dr. Williams Pink Pills are a blood~i>uider, tonic mr-die-ine, every constituent ot which is helpful in building up the digestive organs, V and is therefore the very best' 'remedy for chronic cases ot stomach trouble. ’l`hous» ands ot -cases like the following prove hovg successful this treatment is:- Min Amy Brownian Cornlth, Out., snys:-- "l have found such

great benent grim Dr. Williams Pink Pills that i w d be .tlllkrlteiul ll l did not publicaly say a good word in

their tiivor, I was bully run dun and my stomach _vu iii n very d condition. All tood distressed me, and left me disinclined to est. l su!- fered from nausea and dizziness and frequent nick headaches, and this was further aggravated by pains in the back and sides. I was in this condition for several years.. and ol- though l had got medicine from sev- eral doctors it did not help me. Then I heard of Dr. Williams Pink Pills and boron .taking them. I am glad to any that they noon helped me, and now I sm as well an ever; can eat all- kildl. of food. with relish, Ind have not an ache or pain."

You can get these Pills thi-ru-h
