Under Treatment that
Creates Energy
Some folks are naturally fat, "but
there’s a lot of people who put on
pounds of unhealthy fat because
they haven’t got enough energy to
move about to keep it off.
It's not laziness in most cases—
but a condition brought about by
sluggishness of the internal organs
—the liver, bowels, and kidneys. As
a result, poisons and harmful acids
that kill vigor, ambition, and energy
get into the blood—the whole gener
al tone of the body is lowered ana
fat accumulates.
Thousands of Koverstout men and
women find in Kruschen Salts, a per
fectly safe, sure, and beneficial
means of reducing.
The “little daily dose” of Kruschen
Salts keeps the organs functioning
properly every day, and fills you
with such a feeling or radiant vital
ity and vigor that before you know
it you are fairly ‘‘jumping out of
skin” with energy, instead of mop
ing around—and reduction, follows
as a matter of course—Nature at
tends to that.

THE EXETER TIMES-ADVOCATE THURSDAY, JVW 22, 103?
DONEGAL PIONEERS AT REST
(W. H. Johnston)
I visited the old churchyard,
At Donegal so dear,
To see the graves of those I loved,
And shed a silent tear.
'Tis nearly sixty years ago
When I first saw the place.
But cherished memories are mine,
Which time •cannot efface,
Yes, igolden memories of men,
Deserving greatest praise;
They hewed their way to fortune
through
The woods of early days.
For then the land was covered with
Great forests, dark and deep,
,Of giant trees to clear away
Ere harvest they could reap.
'(Their work was hard beyond the ken
Of those who live to-day,
With chopping, logging, splitting
rails,
From morn till close of day.
But they had cheer, those sturdy men
In shanties dear but plain,
For there the women whom they
loved
Contendedly did reign.
For hope supreme filled all their
breasts
For future days to bring
The fruitage of their labors great
While happily they sing.
In homemade cradles .slept their
babes
As well as those of kings,
To mothers sweet they were the best
They tugged at their heartstrings,
They labored from morn till night
With ne’er a thought of rest
To help their husbands, brave and
true,
.To make a home so blest.
With wives like, these, those stalwart
men
Worked on and never failed,
With iron wills and hopeful hearts
The hardest tasks assailed.
One thikg was lacking in their lives,
No house of God was here
No gathering on Sunday morn,
No minister to cheer.’
Their hearts were longing for the
church
'To lead their lives arignt
And teach them on the Salbbath Day
The words of heavenly light.
But lo, there came along the trails
A godly man who preached,
With trembling hearts they listened
well,
Their inmost souls were reached.
The longing hearts of these brave
men
Responded to the call,
And they were filled with happiness
As on their knees they fall.
And soon the house of God was built,
God‘s acre set apart,
For well these early settlers knew
They had from friends to part.
Some little children dearly loved,
Found here a resting place,
While one by one the older folk
Learned they had death to face.
How neighbors loved in early days
The present ne’er will know,
Then truest sympathy and love
For weeping ones didst flow.
For well they knew, the lonely hours
The mourning ones would spend,
On humlble homesteads' in the bush,
Without their dearest friend.
Thus as I sit with swimming eyes,
And contemplate each mound
Beneath which sleeps a loving
friend,
Their names are all around.
My heart is filled with gratitude,
That e’er such friends I knew,
The best of men and wbmen they
Whose hearts were brave and true
Some day I hope to see again
In l^nds Elysian fair
Who made such an impress on my
youth,
When I wds free from care. <
I charge you men of Donegal
Around this sacred spot,
That you will guard with jealous cafe
The graves of those who’re not.
’Till when the trump of God will call
From out this sunny slope,
The souls of those whose active lives
Were filled with .heavenly hope.

■Cautious Sandy says that it is difficult for an empty sack to
stand up straight. Bandy is a queer old chap.
***♦**♦.*
The surest way in the world to keep one’s nose to the grind
stone till one’s dying day is not to save as- he gets.
a W " • w v « « •
We have been having too many conferences- lately and nor
enough of the old practice of attending to one’s own business.
******* ♦
There’s no difficulty about getting a place in the bread line,
All one needs to do is to acquire a taste for dainties of one sort
and another.
June has presented us with an interesting variety of weather.
But there has been none too much moisture. Indeed there is
every prospect that the hay crop will be light and that the straw
of the grain crops will be short.
********
Again we urge all who can do so at all, to make provision
against the coming winter. Only the most unlikely circumstances
are likely to make conditions any better than, if as good as, the
conditions of the winter of 1932-33. Now’s the time to get ready.
********
We have our fears regarding the success of the Economic Con
ference now convened in London, England. As long as nations are
governed by their predispositions and follow the bias dictated by
selfishness there is no hope of lasting progress. If these unholy
principles prevail at the Conference then it were well the Con
ference had not been held. Mutual suspicions get nations nowhere.
********
That appeal of the folk in the city for some of us to take a city
child or two under our care for a couple of weeks this summer is
worthy of every consideration. There are difficulties in the way,
we know, but what of the child whose father has no work, whose
last dollar of savings has vanished and whose mother has already
scraped the bottom of the flour barrel? The Golden Rule goes as
deep as human nature.
********
, EYES OPEN!
Foi’ some unaccountable reason the nations of the world for a
long time regarded Great Britain a.s a benevolent dame too poor
spirited to resent any injury done her and too g-ood-natured to give
tit for tat. All persons so thinking will do well to ponder the fol
lowing considered words of .her Chancellor of the Exchequer.
“Much as we regret the economic warfare which has
arisen between us and other countries,” he said, “we must
maintain .that warfare as long as the other countries have
taken the aggressive and are unwilling to make auy repara
tions or restituition for the wrong they have done us.
That word “warfare” is worth noting. These be stern times,
my masters.

HARD TO PLEASE
Pronouncement on the present economic and social conditions
by the Toronto Conference has brought forth some spirited criti
cisms on the part of a good many Canadians. A great deal of that
criticism has been adverse. So there you are. If the church does
not say anything about the dificulties of the business and social
world, she is whacked because of her silence. She is styled glassy
eyed and marble-hearted. When she speaks out she is told to
mind her own business and to stop meddling with worldly matter*.
It’s in order however to observe that the business and social
world got itself into the present muddle by going their own way.
For five long, tedious, terrible years the big wigs in the business
world, the political world and the social world have wriggled and
grunted and perspired to get out of their present hobble without
doing anything to write home about. When these notables who
got so little done put something across in the way of aleration
that commands respect of the rest of us the church will welcome
the stern command to mind her own business. Evidently the
church’s critics are still very much in the woods.

SHERIFF MIDDLETON
ANSWERS HIS CRITICS
Quotes Act to Show He Was .Justified
In Charging for Driving Judge
At the Huron County Council
Sheriff G. C. Middleton was criticiz
ed by Reeve Peter Scott for collect
ing $10 from the county for driving
Mr. Justice Masten to Stratford in
his (the sheriff’s) private automo
bile. Reeve Scott pointed -out that
Sheriff Middleton had neither a
chauffeur’s or taxi license and had
broken the laws of the county. Reeve
Goldthorpe stated that the commit
tee had refused to pay the account,
but that the Sheriff had gone over
their heads and received payment
on an order from Justice Masten.
Bright and early next morning the
Sheriff addressed a reply to coun
cil. In his letter he denied that
either he or Justice Masten had
broken any laws of the county. He
charged that the reeve was “motiv
ated with a desire to injure me per
sonally by impugning my honesty.”
The Sheriff’s- Act, chapter 18, R.
S. O., 1927, section 29, was quoted:
“When a sheriff is . directed by the
court to perform any service or do
any act for which no fee is provided,
the sheriff may be allowed such fee
as the court may thinx fit, and the
same may be payable as the court
may direct.”
In His Official Capacity
Sheriff Middelton also quoted the
Administration of Expenses Act, and
a special order-in-council, dated
October 8, 1925, covering the use by
sheriffs, crown attorneys, clerks of
the peace, and police magistrates of
their cars in the service of the Gov
ernment. “I was acting in my of
ficial capacity as sheriff and not as
a chauffeur, and I have never at any
time infringed either the Public Ve
hicles ot the Highway Traffic Act,”
the official stated.
Further, the sheriff pointed out
that his act saved the county over
night hotel bills of the judge and
court reporter and that County Coun
cil might better employ its time, for
the reason that “to date this discus
sion has cost the county at least
$50.”
Reeve Scott, who was asked for a
retraction and apology r)y the sher
iff, refused both. He .said his reasons
for airing the matter were not per
sonal.
“I would point out that the sheriff
first presented his bill for $10 with*
out any order, and that the audit
board, “which includes .fudge Costel
lo, refused to pay it. His action in
securing Justice Masten’s order was
an afterthought,” said Reeve Scott.
