weight. My health has greatly im
proved. My friends see such a dn-
ference in me now. I look younger,
and I have such a fresh look always
about my face which I never used to
have. I take my usual food, bur
my first drink in the morning is my
little dose of Kruschen Salts, which
I will never be without.”—'(Mrs.)

and natural clearance of all far-
forming food refuse.

AN ECHO FROM
Tlie “Haggis” .Supper in Main St.
"United Church on the evening of
the Anniversary of Burns’ Birthday,
January 25, 1934.
Auld Scotia is1 a bonnie land,
To ilka Scotsman true;
And hoo they loe to see again,
Auld custom that they knew.
And the auld custom they they kent
O’ bringin’ haggis in;
Wi’ pomp and pipes, appealed to
them,
Wi’ a’ its merry din.
Wi’ braw iScotch cap upon his held,
And fiddle on his airm;
Brave Georgie Grant cam marchin’
in,
Wi’ haggis frae the fraim.
Wi’ skirl o’ pipes' he led the train,
Wi’ Walker close behind;
The haggis bore aboon his eeid,
Wi’ pride and canny mind.
The skirl o’ pipes, the marchin’ in,
Appealed to ilka ane;
They stand erect, they laud applaud
As sturdy Scotsmen can.
Then oor Tam Pryde, of whom we’re
proud,
Addressed the haggis, fair;
Telit a’ its. virtues bonnily,
In wurrds sae graund and rare.
Wi’ Burns’s grace the feast began,
And ample jootice done;
To the rich haggis on their plates1,
By each and ilka ane.
The supper over we climbed the stair
And in the church aboon;
We heard o' Burns, the bard of loe,
O’ Afton Sweet and Boonie Doon.
Then. HensaM artists and.oor ain,
Did a’, their airts employ;
In readings, sangs and speeches, too
To fill oor hairts wi’ joy.
As hame we gang, we think, aboot,
The happy evening spent;
In honoring dear Bobbie Burs,
In a’ the ways- we kent.

She Was a Nervous Wreck
Had Bad Dizzy Spells
Mrs. Adelard Brabant, Blizzard Valley, Ont.,
writes;—“I was a nervous wreck, also had dizzy
spells and shortness of breath. I was so nervous I
could not stay alone, and would lie awake most of
the night. I was not a bit better after consulting a
doctor and taking his medicine. Ono day a friend
told me to use Milburn’s H. <fc N. Pills which I did,
and in a very short time they made a great difference
in my health. I cannot speak too highly of them.”

WAR RUMORS
It seems that the air is filling up with war rumors. Two oi
three men in prominent places in Europe realize that they can main
tain their hold on the people they assume to govern only by keep
ing their subjects excited. Well do they know that the thought ot
national aggrandizement is about the most exciting slogan in the
old world and this thought these disturbers keep before their people
day and night. All this sort of thing is bad and only bad.
Twenty years ago it was customary to lay the blame for this
unhappy condition upon hereditary monarchs. It was alleged that
if the rulers were elected from time to time that there would be
less talk of war and less actual -strife. All this seems to- have been
a mistaken idea, as the most troublesome leaders in Europe this
hour are the men whom the people have elected for rulers. It is
an instance -of democracy run to seed. It seems as if experience
teaches some people very little, as the very European nation that
complained most loudly of the consequences of the World War they,
brought on themselves is the nation that is making more trouble
in Europe than all the other nations put together.
* * * * * * * *
THINK Tins THOUGHT
The United States evidently realizes that in the event of war
that the last bullet to. be fired will be sent on its deadly mission
from a goldep source. It looks as if the great republic were getting
ready for another w-orld war and as if she were filling her vaults
with gold against that day. Well does tlie republic know that gola
is the .standard of commerical values, the world over. She seems
to be going on the assumption that the nation with the most gold
has the pre-eminence in business. .How far her theory is a sound
theory no one knows, but as things now -are she seems to be right.
Assuming that her theory is reasonable, are the other nations
-of the world following a sane policy in -selling their gold at any
price when they dehorn themselves by so doing? Further, will the
buying up of gold by the government of the United States invite a
revolution in that republic? Will the knowledge that the gold is in
the vaults of the government excite the cupidity of the mercenary
potential revolutionist? In plain words, is the United States head
ing for a despotism? She seems to be building the superstructure
of her national existence upon the apex of the pyramid rather than
upon its base.

AN EXPLANATION
During the acute .stages of the depression, now said to be pass

invent their own way out of their difficulty. In thus suggesting we
.were not mockers. We were but liopi-ng that history would repeat
itself. Recently we have been asked to- illustrate -our moaning.
Til] quite recently the farmers of Europe were compelled to
import the nitrates- required for fertilizing purposes. This involved
the securing of ships and laying of railroad tracks together with
inaugurating all else that goes with the transportation of goods.
It was' at this juncture that invention showed itself, for certain
wise men discovered the moans of manufacturing those nitrates in
commercial quantities and that within the boundaries of Europe.
These men invented their way into moneymaking. Thon what shall
be said of the telegraph, of the telephone, of the phonograph, of
the radio? Then need we mention that neat cover for the milk
bottle? 'Coming down a little smaller what is to be said of the neat
appendage so useful attached to the cover of the milk bottle? These
Inventors actually created a market.

FINE
The following extract of the weekly edition of The London
Times department of finance makes delightful reading:
“Markets have begun the New Year with a cheerful tone. Sen
timent has been favorably affected by the good Exchequer returns,
bettei* trade indications such as increased railway traffic and cheq
ue clearings, and by the generally higher level of profits shown by
the results of the leading banks. The revenue returns have im
parted particular strength to the gilt-edged market owing to the
hopes they encourage of a lowering of income-tax in the next bud
get. Home industrial securities have been strong and South Afri
can goldmining shares have appreciated further.
THEY HAVE SERVED
There’s a class of hard workers in Ontario who have given in
valuable service during the heartbreaking depression that is at last
giving a few faint signs of passing. These folk have -contributed
away out of all proportion to their income to poor relief, as we all
understand that word. They have given largely, besides, privately,
to helping out cases where none but they knew of the distress, in
providing shoes and undies and coats and food. They have been
the main givers to many a church that but for their generosity
would have fallen down sadly in its finances. They have been un
salaried but diligent callers in many a lonely home. They have do
nated secretly but in a most timely way many a lunch to a hungry
child. They have speqt liberally in the stores. In no- sense have
they been hoarders. Helpers they have been and helpers they con
tinue to be utterly forgetting the days of their own gray hairs and
failing powers. This hour they are carrying on this good work
with precious little praise or public commendation for their ser
vices.
We refer to the -school teachers of this good province, a class
of people who in the times of peace are emulating the fine example
of the nursing sisters who served in a manner beyond all praise dur
ing the Great War. Let us not forget.

GODERICH ATHLETE
TO FACE CHARGE
GODERICH, Feb. 2—“Bob” Stod
dart, Canadian amateur pole vault
ing champion, star centre of the
Sailors' Intermediate O. H. A. team
and all-round athlete, faces- a
charge of assault, causing bodily
harm, laid by Arnold Doak, junior
hockey player, whose jaw he is al
leged to have fractured with his
fists during an altercation -which
cropped up in an exhibiton practice
game between intermediates and the
Juniors at West street rink.
Stoddart, one of the cleanest play
ers in the sport, with a record of but
one penalty last season and none
whatever this present season, is said
to have become provoked at the al
leged persistent “wood chopping” of
the junior player that, near the fin
ish of the game, he lost his head
and, dropping his stick, he adminis-
istered a right and a left, in one-
two fashion, to young Doak’s jaw.
An X-ray is said to show a double
fracture which necessitated wiring.
The injured youth is walking about
town with his head swathed in ban
dages. Dr. W. W. Martin was the
attending physician.
Harold Doak, a brother of the in
jured youth, is regular goalie of the
Intermediate team. He was absent
from his position Wednesday night
at New Hamburg when the Sailors
lost, 5 to 0, their second defeat of
the season. The incident has caus
ed genuine regret among fans, for
both Stoddart and the Doa-k boys are
favorites, but efforts to patch things
up failed.
