New Frocks No Longer Worried Her “How did she lose that 32 lbs. of fat?’’ is what you will be asking Let her tell you herself:— “About 18 months ago I weighed 178 lbs.—which I can assure you annoyed me very much. Everything seemed to worry me, especially new clothes. Nothing would fit me com­ fortably, and walking was unbear- abe, I was advised by a friend to try Kruschen Salts and I am very glad I did, too. During the first ten months I lost 28 lbs. of fat. Now for the last 6 months my weight has been 146 lbs,, and I feel much bet­ ter in health. I have all my weight tickets to substantiate my state­ ments.’’—(Mrs.) M. P.

Curran in Soo Daily Star) When you buy a whitefish you likely pay a good price for this king of all edible fish. This year Lake Huron fishermen got as little as three cents a pound net in the New York market, which controls the fish prices you pay. Just now the New York price is 12 cents, which nets Canadian fishermen about 4£ cents, the rest of the money being eaten up in a 20 per cent, 'commiss­ ion, freight, duty etc. The result is that, as Capt. Joe Roque, of Kill- arney, points out there is no profit for the men who operate the pound nets. Killarney sets out nearly <5'0 of these, the fishing grounds there be­ ing the most productive on the Great Lakes. The industry is controlled by Americans. There seems to be an opening for a good Canadian organ­ izer to line up our fishermen and make an effort to develop a Cana­ dian market. The whitefish industry has lasted for nearly 300- years, and thfe column is informed that the supply seems inexhaustible. Lake trout, however, seem to be affected by the demands made on the supply.

PLEADING FROGS In parts of the British West In­ dies one buys live frogs from native boys and fattens the frogs for food These frogs attain a large size, as big as a small hen and are delic­ ious.

One draw­ back is- that the frogs become tame and are almost human in their ges­ tures and expression, sq, that one hesitates to kill them.

Their presence is a source of embarrass­ ment, and wherever you go you are painfully conscious of their dis­ figuring presence. Why, then, consent to rest under this cloud of embarrassment when it is not necessary. There is a remedy for these facial defects, and that is Burdock Blood Bitters.
