EDITORIAL Woman’s Digestive Troubles Everyone who is subject to any form of indigestion should know 01 this woman’s experiences. Advice from one who has had such severe attacks is advice worth having. She writes:.— “I suffered from indigestion, gas- iritis and constipation, and was sc very ill, I had (on medical advice; to live on soda biscuits and milk for, three months. Well, a friend ad­ vised me to take Kruschen, and now I am pleased to say my troubles are ended, I can eat and enjoy a good imeal without ny painful after-effects ■my skin is clearer—in fact, quite clear—and there is no sign of con­ stipation. I would advise anyone suffering the same to take Krus­ chen.”— (Mrs.) M.RJL.

Soon after you start on Kruschen you will find that yop are able to enjoy your food without any distressing after­ effects. And as you persevere with the “little daily dose,’’ you will see that the relief which Kruschen brings is lasting relief.

ESSAY ON A COW The following essay on the sub­ ject “What is a Cow?” is' attributed to a schoolboy: The cow is a female quadruped with an alto voice and a countenance in which there is no guile. She col­ laborates with the pump in the pro­ duction of a liquid called milk, pro­ vides the filler for hash, sausages and similiar objects, and at last Is skinned by those she has benefited as mortals commonly are. The young, cow is called a calf and is used in- the manufacture of chick­ en salad, breaded veal and other uses of which no further knowledge is necessary. The cow’s tail is mounted aft and has a universal joint. It is used to disturb marauding flies and the tas­ sel on the end has unique educational value. Persons who come in contact with the tassel have vocabularies of peculiar and impressive force. The cow has two stomachs. The due on the ground floor js used as a warehouse and has no other func­ tion. When this one is filled the cow retires to a quiet spot where her had manners will occasion no com­ ment. The raw material ,thus con­ veyed for the second time to the in­ terior of her face is pulverized and delivered to the auxiliary stomach where it converted into cow. The cow has no upper plate, ad .her teeth are parked in the lower part of her face. This arrangement was perfected by an efficiency ex­ pert to keep her from gumming ■things up. As a result she bites tfp and gums down.—Glencoe Transcript The Ontario Live Stock Branch has recently announced a second series Bacon Bitter Competition for sows farrowing between September 1st and October 31st, 1933.

It’s our nerves that have got the start on us. We have overworked our grumbling faculties. Our smiling muscles have not had their due. Everybody seems anxious to blame somebody else for something. The baker blames the but­ cher and the butcher torments the candlestickmaker while all three agree that the rest of humanity are a very bad lot. Now, nobody really means all this. It is a case of nerves. Oi course bills are to be paid. Some of us have betimes,, pains in our turns. Still others of us have a cold in the head. Others again have dandruff. Some of us find ourselves possessed of an ever enlarg­ ing bald spot. All too many of us have cold feet. Children have fallen so low as to pinch an occasional cooky from mother’s pantry. The horror of it! Word has come of a bold, bad boy who swiped a melon. We even' heard of a nicely powdered and perfumed lady who told a nasty bumper of a fib. Then there was the appalling story of the schoolboy who was late for school, who got soundly thrashed for his dereliction and who revengefully vowed that he would “lick” that teacher the first chance when he became a man. Yes, things are bad, terribly bad in all these ways, but they have been as baa before and people have lived. The cooky pinching boy grew to be a dad’s stay and comfort. The melon swiping youngster became an aiderman. That fib telling woman joined the ladies’ aid and became a burning and shining light in a number of ways. We’re miserable all right, all right, but it’s not the cussed­ ness of things. It’s not due to the fact that we were born in sin and shapen into iniquity, at leasT not altogether. It’s not because the devil has been let loose upon poor mortals, at least not alto­ gether. Our misery is not altogether due to the fact that we’re a poor lot, destined to everlasting burnings. No it’s the nerves. Our suggestion is that we laugh more, speak gently, help the other fellow by giving him a kindly word and a pleasant smile when we can do no better, shake the peas out of our boots, turn the •corneirsi of our mouths upward, say our prayers early, be snoring soundly by nine-thirty, work like all possessed all day—and forget our nerves as we recount the goodness of God to us, to our children and to~our native land. A lady with her young son was walking through th„ crowded toy department of a big store. “How would the little lad like a game of ludo?” asked the shop^ walker, with an eye to business. “Oh, he’d be delighted, if it’s not taking up to much of your time,’” replied the lady, beaming. KEEP SMILIN’ I't takes a heap o’ smilin’ In these times we’re goin’ thru— To keep the Old ball rollin’, iSonfewhat like We used to ■do. But as surely as you’re livin’, You will cash in on your pluck; While competitors are weepin’ On account o’ their hard luck. , — T. L. F Shingles! No. 1 B. C.
