RHEUMATISM
At 65—Working Again
Why worry about rheumatism?
This old feillow ihad it almost as ibad
as it could be. But he just found
the right remedy, stuck to it, and
now he’s working again—at 65 years
of age.
Let him tell you all about it;—■
“For two years and a half," he
writes, “I have suffered from rheu
matism. For eighteen (months I
could not turn over in bed, nor help
■myself in any way. My legs and
feet were swollen, and I could not
sleep or get any rest until I started
taking Kruschen Salts. After taking
one bottle, I went about on two
■canes. I kept on taking it, as I
found the pains were leaving me. I
have taken six bottles, and now I
have started to work again. I am 65
years of age, and everybody that
knows me says I am a wonder to get
on, after what I was.”—J. B.
Do you realize what causes rheu
matism? Nothing but sharp edged
uric acid crystals which form as the
result of sluggish eliminating (or
gans, Kruschen iSalts can always
be counted upon to clear those pain
ful crystals from the system.

Mr. John Ross, who has been in

Mr. John Spaceman is erecting

Mr. Harry SamWell was joined in

St. Marys.
Mr. J. E. Tom, of the St. Marys
Collegiate Institute, has been engag
ed as science master oif the Strathroy
Institute at a salary of $900 pel'

Messrs. D. and G. Dyer, who have
been visiting in the old country re
turned home last week. Both gentle
men look as though the .change of
climate has had a salutory effect
upon them. They were serenaded
by the band on Monday evening.
It is with pleasure we mention
the success which has attended our
young friend, Mr. L. L. Hooper. He
has succeeded in passing his final
examination and now has the honor
of holding the title of medical doc
tor.

Britain's level-headedndss apparently has again saved the Eur
opean situation. Our Old Mother has accomplished all that her
Allies sought for without doing violence to the self-respect of even
hei- enemies. She has succeeded in showing that any European
nation that brings on a war is acting, sinfully, shamefully and crim
inally.********

ALL HONOUR !
All honour to men like Sir John Simon who are giving their
time and strength for keeping the peace of the world. In days
when it is cheap and easy but altogethex’ nasty to sneer at public
men, let us give every praise to men of the Sir Jo1j.p Simon stamp!
who every 'hour they serve the public sacrifice private fortune and
.private ease. We have men in Canada who do the same thing, men
badgered every minute by self-seeker® who nevei' did a generous
act in their lives. Britain loves a fight, but she loves justice far
more. The day has come when the great hearted and the wise
should be given the practical sympathy and the good words they sO'
richly deserve. There are selfish men in public life but they have
their reward.********
VERY STUPID
Ludendonf, the strategist of the German armies in the Great'
War has just announced his entire atheism- God, for him, is an
utter nonentity. To him Christianity and its Founder are worth
less, beneath .contempt.
Tne Bible speaks, of the man who says in his heart that there
is no God. However, the Bible calls such a man a fool and the
Bible has a fashion of continuing on its way while its despieers go
the route of dusty death. Of all forms that folly takes, that of
going without a religion iis the most egregious. Ludendorf has
not the last word.********
THE RIGHT SORT OF WORK
25 YEARS AGO
Mr. R. N. ITaylor on Tueday even
ing resigned as secretary of the I.
0. O. F. and R. N. Creech was ap
pointed to fill the position.
Lee Blatchford and Tom Jones
have taken positions with the tele
phone gang and on completing the
work 'here will go to Hensall and
Windsor.
The Exeter Curling Club did hon
or to one oif theix* number on Friday
evening last by' tendering him a
complimentary banquet in Wilson’s
restaurant. We refer to Mr. R. N.
Taylor, who leave® next month for
Calgary to reside.
Mr. Wm. Hooper left last' week to
visit with friends in Pigeon, Mich.,
for two weeks.
Mr. Paul Madge and son Martin,
of Usborne, left on Tuesday .for
Lethbridge, Sask.
Mrs. Baker, who has been visiting
her sister, Mrs. John Sanders, Ste
phen, returned to her home in Wing
ham, Wednesday.
Mr- and Mrs. David Langford,
who have been epending the winter
with their daughter, Mrs. (Dr.)
Roulston, left Tuesday ifor Regina,
Sask.
Mr. Johix Charlton returned 'Sat
urday from a trip west bringing with
him a mammoth potato- a® evidence
of the fertility of southern Alberta.
The potato is 10 inches long and
weighed 4% pounds.
We notice in the columnis of a contemporary that one of the
Women’s Institutes has listened to a paper by a visiting friend,
dealing with the work of the League of Nations. About 50 women
were in attendance on the occasion. In this way public opinion is
formed. What these ladies can do they are doing to bring about a
just and lasting peace between the natiins of the whole world.
This League has no army to enforce its suggestions.. No navy
moves to enforce its judgments. The air is not alive with engines
of destruction as the League says what ought to be done. Reason
able men point the way to bettei' international conditions. Con
science and reason are appealed to. War with its consequences are
pointed out. The bettei’ angels in men’s nature are appealed to.
In this way the League works rationally and religiously in defence
of and for the promotion of every human interest. And the League
is winning its way. Reason and conscience cannot be successfully
flouted.********
DROUGHT IS ALMOST CERTAIN
To many of our readers, it may seem a little absurd to be issu
ing a warning about the danger of drought in this part of old On
tario. There has never been a really killing drought, though hay
and some crops have suffered and wells have gone dry in recent
years, though they were never dry before. In spite of these warn
ings, the average rural or town dweller seems to take it for grant
ed that no serious drought is possible. The person who lives in a
large city probably never gives the matter any thought.
The prophet of disastter is never popular, but we are taking
the risk. Right now, in this month of April, 1935, we are facing
the possibility of the worst drought that southwestern Ontario has
ever seen and we don’t mean maybe. In recent years, we have
built up something of a reputation along the Grand River valley as
an observer of conditions, and we unhesitatingly risk that reputation
right now by making the prediction that unless there are very heavy
spring rains, there will be a serious drought.
This district* has had two dry years. As a result, the ground
water is very low. Swamps and ponds are lower than they should
be at this season. These, along with the rivers and streams, are
the water gauges. They can be read as easily as the engineer reads
the water glass on his steam boiler.—'Fergus News-Record********

AGED CLAY PIPE FOUND
While William Balkwill Jr., .,
repairing the floor of an old stable
on the property of John A. Wifllis,
at' the corner of John and William
street®, they found below the old
flooi' an apparently unused clay pipe
in a perfect state oif preservation.
Upon examination the pipe was found
to be a souvenir of the 1897 .Diamond
Jubilee of Queen Victoria. On one
side of the bowl was the bust of the
late queen in bas-relief while bn the
other side was reference to the jubi
lee 1837-97.
The1 property has passed through
the hand® of several owners, Mr,
Willis acquiring it about five years
ago. For many years prior to 1898
it belonged to the late Charles Per
kins add the stable was on the px<o-
perty Wilion he purchased the place,
so doubtless the pipe w’as left when
h previous repair job was being
dohe.
