I turned the scales at 196 lbs. I was fed up at getting fat, and it made me short-winded. Why they noticed it more was because I was getting fat slowly since I had an operation for annedix. I went hack to the hospital and the doctor said most women get fat after that operation. I had tried everything I knew of to try and get slim, so I thought I would give Kruschen Salts a trial. I started at first to take half the dose prescribed, in my first cup of tea. Nine months ago, I turned the scale at 19 6 1'bs. and at the time of writ­ ing I go 17 8 lbs. I feel better than I have felt for a long time.”1-—«(Mrs.) H. The formula of Kruschen repre­ sents the ingredient ©alts of the min­ eral waters .of those European Spas which have been used by generations of overstout people to reduce weight. Gently, but surely, Kruschen rids the system of all fat-forming food refuse, of all poisons and harmful acids which give rise to rheumatism, headaches and many other ills. Mile— A. Smith, R.

('St. Marys Journal-Argils) i HOYLE—WALLIS The marriage of Clara Ruth, sec­ ond eldest daughter of I. Wallis to William Hoyle, of Woodstock, took .place in the Granton United church recently. Rev. A. E. Lloyd perform­ ed the ceremony assisted by Rev. L. C. Harvey. Mr. Wass officiated at the organ assisted by Miss Vera Sea- ger with the violin. Th^ attendants were Misses Edna nd Dorothy Wallis as maid of honor .and brides maid. The groom was atended by N. Allen, of Brantford. Little Betty May and Gerald Ratcliffe were flower girl and ring bearer. The bride gowned in ivory satin with a tulle veil, was given in marriage iby her father. The bridesmaid and maid of honor wore velvet gowns with picture hats. Dur­ ing the signing of tbe register Mitts M. Wass, of St. Marys, sang “At Dawning.” A buffet luncheon was served at the bride’s home to some 60 guests, after which Mr. and Mrs. Hoyle left on a honeymoon to Mont­ real.

The .borderland between England and Wale© wears is history on its face, in castles, in Roman bridges and ruin fortifications. We can see how it has b^en fought over again and again by Welsh, English, Remans, Saxons, Noimans till peace was finally established by Edward I Very old England anc" very old Wales We start out from Chester that an­ cient city, the circle of whose walls is still standing. We drive along the river Dee, where once lived the Jolly Miller, and into Wales, gray ©tone larch trees past secluded estates castles and modern ones, Gladstone’s home among them. We c-ome to Holywell, a litle town whither, in the long ago, pilgrims flocked to drink from the well of St. Winifred. Abergele, next, with its funny nar­ row greets, quaint shops and outrag­ eous Welsh names above the doors. All the houses in Wales seem to have peaked windows and curlicues on their roof-tips. Further along, we catch a glimpse now and then of the Irish Sea, the sun shining on the blue water afay off to the north. But it comes closer and closer at Liandudno, we are right on shores. six miles over the border The road leads between walls with oak, elm and growing out of them, .old Norman Welsh Seaside Resort too. The England is Shrewsbury, not to have grown ar- inch since the Tudor times. Its narrow streets are lined with ancient timbered houses, the second storey overhanging the roadway. There is a curious feature about its shopping district, Butch­ er’s Row, Pride Hill, Fish Street. A series of “rows” or covered passage­ ways on the second floor of all the buildings carries yon along eight feet above the regular sidewalk and allows you to shop up there at your leisure, away from the traffic and bad weather. The farmer still drives his sheep down the middle of the High Street early in the morning and market women, geese and ducks and chick­ ens over their arm, come to town1 about five a.m. to set up a stand in the Market Square, just as they have done for centuries and centur­ ies. The whole atmosphere of the place fairly shouts of those nursery rhymes and songs “Dame, Get Up and Bake Your and “What Shall we have for ner, Mr's. Bond — there’s geese in the larder and ducks in the pond.” The hotel where we. stay is locked up at ten at night — nothing doing after sunset in Shrewsbury. We have a suspicion that there is a Town Crier calling out the hour, but having sunk so deep into that feather bed and feather bolster, .we are not there to hear him, if there i© one. most fascinating Old Shrewsbury Edwardsburg NBRAND num syrup The famous energy-producing sweet— an easily digested food invaluable for infants, growing children, and enjoyed by the whole family, A product of The Canada Starch Co., Limited till its covered old like, Pies din- Hay Council The regular monthly meeting of the council of the Township of Hay jwas held in tbe Town Hall, Zurich, ion Monday, October 1st, witn ail the [membeis pre; ent.

We find this famous and fashionable water­ ing-place just too dreary for words. Every inch of the beach is with bathing-machines and donkeys to draw them, presumably. An end­ less line of tall, narrow hotels, all of a uniform grey color, faces the water. Behind these again on the next street are row© of jewellery stores, post-card and souvenir shops. Nothing Welsh anywhere—not even a Welsh hat! Nevertheless the scenery about Liandudno is superb. On the west side of the bay rises a fierce head­ land, hundred of feet above the sea, called the Great Orme. The view from the top is breath-taking. North­ ward, you see a pale shadow, whicji is the Isle of Man. To the south-, west lie the peaks of .Snowdon; and westward, the anciena Isle of Mona, or Anglesey, as they call it in mod­ ern times. PRESENTATION Over one hundred friends neighbors gathered at the home of Mris. George Nicholson, Parkhill in honor of hei’ daughter, Mrs. Clay­ ton Dickson, whose marriage took place recently. A beautiful “well and tree” platter set in silver was presented by the Sylvan Y. P. S. and a Gibbard .walnut desk with chair to match and other miscel­ laneous gifts from the community were presented to the young couple. Often in hot weather and occasion­ ally at other times, little stomachs turn sour and acid. “When I notice any sign of sick stomach,” says Mrs. J. Alphonous Brown, Bayside, P.E.I., “I always give a Baby’s Own Tablet.” They quickly set things right, are very easy to take and quite safe. All common ail­ ments of childhood including teeth­ ing are promptly relieved with Baby’s Own Tablets. 25c a pack­ age at drug stores. 18 G Dr.Williams’ BABY'S OWN TABLETS That Stab-Like Pain In the Small of the Back It is hard to work with a weak, lame, aching back, Backacho may come from sick kidneys, and what a lot of trouble sick kidneys cause. But they can’t help it. If more work is put on them than they can stand it is not to bo wondered they get but of Order. On the first sign of a backache Doan’s Kidney Pills should be taken, They go to the seat of the trouble. They help strengthen tho weak back; they help regulate the kidneys, and then there is no further excuse fori kidney trofiblo td exist, * Oaernarvon Castle We arrive at the ancient market town of Caernarvon about 2 o’clock in the afternoon and are met at the front gate of the castle by an old guide swinging an iron key at least three feet long. He ha© a voice like thunder (mentioned by H. V. Mor­ ton). In fact it is much, much easier to listen to his story a hundred yards away. So we explore the castle by ourselves, bearing all the while every word that he says in the courtyard below. We walk the walls where the ©entry archers used to stand on guard, and wind up and down niside the towers on circular stairs of Worn stone. We find a hole where you can look down 85 feet in­ to the sea. Many years ago the sea washed in and around the castle all the time. Engish Edward I used to drop his condemned' Welsh prison­ ers down this hole, but not before they had a last service said for them in a chapel the shape of a coffin. Great place! In the Lanld of Snowdon We head eastward towards Snow­ don and climb and climb. Sunshine and warmth drop behind us and all is gray and bleak up here in the mist.. The district is full of slate­ quarries, coal-mines and sheep-folds. We pass through little villages where the houses are made of stone, roofs and everything. In the Llanberis Pass, a wild region of rocks and .black peaks, we see a shepherd sit­ ting in front of his stone hut while the flock graze peacefully around him. On either sido huge cliffs over­ hang his dwelling-plaoe, and the hills rise right out of sight. IThe top of Snowdon is lost in the clouds, Does anyone ever really ©ee it we wonder. Far below, a streak of sunlight glances on a green slope, but it is too late; we are al­ ready descending. Across vast roll­ ing plains and down through the wooded valleys, we come to Bettws- y-Coed, in the heart of the Welsh fairy country. We stop here for a tea which has been prepared for us, but the tea-shop has been burned down the night before. Better lucl; next time! Thp Border Again Through hiore lovely Welsh hills we drive till be come to Corweh And the Llangollen Pass. Now we are, back again on the old fighting* The body of Henry Snyder found in the River Maitland the golf course and directly under the C.P.R. bridge on Thursday last. The head was badly crushed, and the presumption is that he had fall­ en from the bridge sixty feet above. The discovery was made by James Donaldson and William Somerville, who were fishing in the river. Later Mr. Synder’s automobile was found parked near the golf eourse, a short distance away. It had been there since 10.30 that morning, ft is less than three weeks since Mr. Synder was taken with dizziness at the ele­ vator wharf and fell into the water of the harbor from which he rescued by elevator employees ter he had held to a ledge on pier for nearly half an hour. Snyder was born in Colborne town­ ship about fifty-eight years ago, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Snyder. •was near was af- ihe Mr, The Times-Advocate Offers You Here is a real offer that will save you money ...
