NERVOUS

EXHAUSTION

HIS BLOOD NEEDS OXYGEN!

In all nervous derangements, impoverished blood is at the root of the trouble. Nervous exhaustion, ncurnsthenia, debility, neuralgia, result from mal- nutrition of the nerves, and mean hut the blood in lacking in those elements which feed the nerves and keep them well-nourished and strong. When tho

blood is rich, red and plentiful, nervous troubles are speedily ended.

The best and most natural method of achieving this condition is by oxygenization of the blood. Oxygen means life. Every drop of blood thirsta for -oxygen and it has been proved that the basic con- ponent of 'Dr. Williams' Pink Pills enables the blood to absorb oxygen in large quantities. For nervous troubles and all ailments resulting from impoverished blood this world-famed remedy stands supreme.

ENVIRONMENT.

VITAL FACTOR IN EDUCATION.

A certain private school in Britain has lately been closed, because, after twenty years, the authorities have declared it to be both educationally ineficient and unsuitably housed.

The publicity given to this cass in the newspaper has aroused in the minds of parents and guardians the Importance of selecting for young) people a school that shall be beyond reproach, on hygienic as well as educational grounds. Indeed, suit ability of environment is n vital factor, having regard to the in- fluence it is bound to have in char-; acter building.

Lord Eustace Percy, P.C., M.P., speaking on "A -Polley of Higher Education" at the recent meeting of the Britlah' Association for the Advancement of Selence, sald:-

"Education is not schooling. To approach the problem of higher education from the administrative point of view, to start by planning a school system and a school cur- riculum, is to begin at the wrong end. The only assumption that the educational administrator has any right to make is that, up to the age of eighteen, a boy or a girl should never be out of touch with educă- tinal opportunities, and that it is the duty of all public-spirited citi- zons to co-operate in providing such opportunities. What the oportuni- ties should be must dépend, not upon any preconceived assumptions ns to the best and most efficient school system, but on the needs of the individual boy or girl, as ex- pressed in their demand, or the demand of their parents or employ- cra, for a particúlar kind of educa- tion. Our frat business is to dis cover that demand and to make it conscious and articulate. When we have done

that, the educational administrator can come in to satisfy

it.
