HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Exeter Times-Advocate, 1934-04-19, Page 7Rheumatism Got Him 80-years-old Pianist is Relieved by Kruschen Although old age has not yet kept this man from his occupation as a pianist, rheumatism did threaten to do so recently. "Two years ag-o,” he writes, “I was suddenly taken with rheumatism all down my left arm. I tried many things—-all to no purpose. I then commenced taking a half-teaspoon­ ful of Kruschen Salts every morning and soon felt benefit. My arm, which was painful and nearly useless, to my astonishment is now, after a few week’s treatment, quite better. I am more than pleased, as I am a. pianist, and playing made matters worse. I am just entering my 80th year, and am in good health.”—G. L. A. The six mineral sans of Kruschen have a direct effect upon the whole bloodstream, neutralizing uric acid, which is the recognized ’cause of rheumatism. They also restore the eliminating organs to proper work­ ing order, and so prevent constipa­ tion, thereby checking the further formation of uric acid and other body poisons which undermine the health.

Refuw irabetitUU*. 2oo. at *11 druggist*, M THE EXETER TIMES-ADVOCATE Let’s vote for all of them. ******** It has been a tragic spring for the birds. ****** ** 1934 continues to set the pace for queer weather. * ******* One cannot keep clean and play among the tar be barrels, ******** France is said to be struggling to remain on gold. A few of us .are struggling to get a little. ******** What a pity when we regard another’s odd ways as faults and confuse his mistakes with offences'. ******** We had a good square look at our coal man’s face last week. We did not like the way he was smiling. ******** We heard that someone has gone thirteen miles upwards. Looking for the fine weather no doubt. ******** “Invisible restoration”. That’s the new way the Americans have of describing their new prosperity. ******** There's something wrong. Nobody has publicly whacked Fer- gie though, at least two weeks have passed. ******** It still holds true, as Josh Billings pointed out long ago, that the higher the ass holds his head the plainer you can see his ears. Our cousins in the United States are witnessing a jolly war between the brain trusters and the rugged individualists. Lay on, boys. ******** If all that those grits are saying about the tories is true ana if all that the tories say about the grits is true, this country is tin a bad way for rulers. ******** President Roosevelt asked for criticism. Well he’s getting it. He asked for prosperity but he’s not getting it. Prosperity costs labour and self denial. Cricitism doesn't and there you are! ******** If last week’s weather is a sample of what James Bay has to send us we wonder why in tun'ket they’ve built a railway from here to there. We’d vote for the railroad’s being built to run in another direction. ******** » ’Cautious Sandy said that the snow of a couple of weeks ago was good for the fall wheat,. , Faddy McGraw tells us that lajstj week’s snow was .good for the maple syrup crop. We’re bound >to he a prosperous people. ******** A FINE MOVE H. R. H. the Prince of Wales, has won .another victory for Britain by keeping up the morale of Britains out of work. The prince seems determined that the unemployed shall play. The Bri­ tishers, the prince is undertaking, are to be kept sound in body and clean in mind either by working diligently or by playing hard. Well does H. R. H. know that while the devil tempts a busy man that the loafer offers his services to his Satanic majesty at the low­ est possible wages. Where idleness abounds, morale is at its lowest. ******** ANOTHER VIEW Those who are sure that Russia in bent on war will do well to read the remarks of Litvinoff, Russia’s big -diplomat; . “The threat of war which is hanging over every quarter of the world is being emphasized in writings and speeches every day, whereas almost nothing has been heard of the possibilities of avoid­ ing the coming catastrophe for humanity. The attitude of governments and statesmen toward this situ­ ation is a sort of fatalism, as toward something inevitable. All they can think about is a general speeding up of armaments, which in the past has not averted wars, but only stimulated them.” ******** IT HEARTENED Last Thursday when the snow was falling like all possesed we saw an old chap busy splitting and piling his wood. “Better stop!” we suggested. “But the job’s not done'” he protested. “Well, tomorrow will be a new day!” “But I’ve work laid out for tomorrow!” and the old chap pounded and piled away. Later, as we passed his home, the job was done and the old fellow was busy at something else. We submit that that is the style of man who is solving a whole •lot of our problems. We know a few .dozen young men who tell you that they’re tired and for that reason they stop work to “rest” as they call. it. We know a number of business men who tell you that they’re quitting because the sledding 'is difficult. They tell you that they're going at something else. Meanwhile their present work is not done and yet they give up. The old chap we referred to> was tired, very tired. He was wet with snow. Still he kept, right on till his job was well done. He Tested that evening by a cosy fire after he had eaten heartily of a supper of bacon and eggs. Later ‘lie re­ tired to a warm bed and slept soundly till morning. Down at the grocer’s his credit is good. The village treasurer smiles when this old fellow appears on the street. The banker speaks of him as a good citizen and you’ll find him in his pew of a Sunday morning. He’s not rich but he has “plenty”, all because- all his life through it has takien more than an aching bacik ’Or a little snow to stop him) from working till he is able to say “the job is done!” It heartens one to meet a citizen of this sort. ******** ACTION, PLEASE When the air is heavy as. it is with all sorts of plans it is time­ ly for the lovers of the race tocall for action, for results not for talk We hear the churches calling ofr lerderslrip when the demand should be for getting things .done. Not that there is less need for ‘discussion and for expression in the way of language but that there is call for getting things done.This is the lesson of history. David's brothers had a good deal to say about what he was fit to do and what about the job he had better’leave undone. Saul had his own ideas of what David could do. No doubt there was a lot of talk In the armies of the chosen people as the busy whisper got about that the shepherd lad was rushing in where warriors feared to tread. On the other hand, David believed in action and pegged away at the giant, in this connection a word to the wise is sufficient. Take the temperance issue, for an instance, In that matter good .people have theories in plenty. But the Votes are absent when and where they are most needed. There is no end of talk about what the “law” ought to do, but, bless you, when it comes to giving evidence before the court, the only place where evidence counts for anything, there is a great big hole where there should be a real man; ’Said an English banker to a (prominent Canadian not so long ago. as Britain staffed to emerge from the business doldrums, “You look very tired!” “I’m not surprised,” replied the banker, “I’ve been .rather busy!” This victor had toiled terribly since 1916. Busy? we should say SO! Action? Yes, uninterrupted, unweaylng, back)- breaking and heartbreaking', but victorious action. THURSDAY, APRIL 19 th, 1931 Crediton W. I.
