The puir crather needs them baith. • «•••••• It’s a dangerous thing to inherit either a fortune or a good name. 'One is expected to live up thereto. ******** What an autumn, it has been for getting fall plowing and other farm operations well done! Anyway spring’s coming. ******** We came across an Exeter man the other day who did not dis cuss the NRA with us. He was too busy getting something sensible done. ******** The President of the Eligible Maiden’s Society says that the reason she has not married hitherto is because she will not take a joke. ******** Cautious Sandy says that he knows when the NRA is being discussed. He says when he hears one talking about business in a way that the one who listens doesn’t understand and when the one who speaks doesn’t understand what he’s talking about himself, he knows that it is NRA. ******** The most deplorable feature of the Stratford strike is that it has been a big mistake. It need never have been. Had two or three men heen on their toes the thing would never have taken place. The big mistake was made by a large body of people, the voters who were sound asleep a number of months, ago. ******** SHE GOT RID OF IT "This bill worries me a good deal’’ a soft-spoken lady well dress ed in fur and dainty slippers and adorned with faultless rogue and talcum remarked this week to .one of our merchants. "It need not do that!” replied the grocer. "Just pay it, if you please. It has worried me for two'years. I want you to be merci ful to both of us!” ******** A SEVERE TEST Governments are well aware that though they serve the public with the wisdom of Solomon and the devotion of Moses and the zeal of the Apostle Paul that they simply cannot survive an election un less the .financial depression passes before they make trial of the electors. The old slogan "It’s time for a change!” is too much for the average elector who sees in the government the cause of his every financial distress, iCabinet ministers and members of parliament see this as clearly as anyone else. They understand as well as anyone that the people whom they are elected to serve will turn them out nee hand crop the first chance that comes along. And herein lies the rulers’ temptation. Shall he do all he can for electors who are eager to run him into the back pasture, wind- broken and spavined as he may be cursing him and kicking him as he retires to solitude? Let us answer the question squarely. At anyrate, the public man is confronted with this question. Thanks be most of our leaders stand the test wonderfully well. Their doing so is all to their credit. v***«««* LET’S HAVE THE REAL THING Yes, we known that there are a whole lot of undeserving people who are on public relief lists. We know that there are rundreds who are in want today because when the sun was shining they played the grasshopper rather than the bee. We know there are a lot of people willing to sell' donated coal or potatoes that they may get cash to attend the movies. We .could mention some people who are so lazy that they’d starve in a restaurant. But we know of one family of five children where the district visitor found only two children possessed a stitch of cloth ing. We know of a two-year-old baby whose dad was paying her way quite nicely two years ago who now is up against starvation and nakedness. We know, too, that such cases ard but typical. We know, too that there are a whole lot of people who 'have gone the limit in the way of finding the naked and clothing them, of coming upon the sick and helping them, of discovering the stranger and befriending him. But we know, further, of scores and scores of folk who have not even begun adequately to help out in the present appalling case. They give something to good causes it is true but they are not doing any sweating in the line of charity. They bridge, and all; the rest of it, as gaily as of yore. They have not blistered even their smallest finger by lifting anyone’s load. Upon all such triflers a heavy pen alty is sure to fall as it fell upon the Rich Man of terrible memory. Dr. Wood's Dry, Hacking Cough Nearly Choked Her Mrs. 0. C. Scheie, Duhamel, Alta., writes:—"I had a terrible dry, hacking cough which would nearly choke me. I tried -all kinds of medicine to get rid of it, but they never helped me and my cough still hung on. I then got a bottle of Dr. Wood’s Norway Pine Syrup and in a few days my cough was all* gone, thanks to this valuable medicine. Now I always keep a bottle of ‘Dr. Wood’s’ on hand.” Price, 35c a bottle; large family size, 65c, at all drug and general stores; put up only by The T. Mil bum Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont. THE EXETER TIME5-APVOCATE FEELS50 lbs. SUMMER After Losing Only 5 lbs. "I started taking Kurschen 'Salts a month ago,” a young woman writes "I have 'lest 5 lbs. in weight and I feel as if I had lost 20 lbs. I am full of vigor, whereas before I was listless and worried over little things. But if my < troubles were doubled, they would not worry me today — thanks to Kruschen.”—• (Miss) V. P. Here’s the recipe that banishes fat —take one half teaspoon of Krus- iChen 'Salts in a glass of hot water before breakfast. Be sure and do this every morn ing, for "It’s the daily dose that takes off the fat.” When you take Kruschen daily it means that every particle of poisonous waste matter and harmful acids and gases are ex pelled from the system. Modify your diet, and take gentle exercise. The stomach, liver, kid neys and bowels are tuned up, and the pure, fresh blood containing these six salts is carried to every part of the body. Then follows "that Kruschen feeling” of energetic health and activity* that is reflected in bright eyes, clear skin, cheerful, vi vacity and .charming figure. School Reports REPORT OF S. S.
