From Invading Homes BACKACHE
Although the majority of the Can
adian species of ants live in colonies
or nests outdoors, they .frequently
cause annoyance iby. invading kit-
chens and pantries in search of food,
One of the most common and troub
lesome household species, known as
the red ant or Pharaoh’s ant, con
fines itself entirely to heated build
ings such as bakeries, restaurants
and houses, This tiny, reddish-
yellow ant had its origin in the tro
pics The common large carpenter
ant, although normally an outdoor
species nesting principally in decay
ing wood, frequently occurs in dwell
ings, qhiefly frame houses and sum
mer cottages, and may cause injury
to woodwork as well as annoyance
by its .'presence. A third common
species is the small yellowish-brown
lawn ant which nests in lawns and
gardens, often entering houses in the
search of food.
'The most satisfactory material so
far discovered for destroyings ants is
sodium .fluoride, sold by druggists,
in the form of a fine white powder.
This powder should be scattered or
dusted lightly in places frequented
by the ants and left undisturbed un
til the insects have disappeared. As
sodium fluoride is somewhat poison
ous, care should Ibe taken to prevent
children or pets from gaining access
to it.
Ants may be discouraged from
entering houses by keeping shelves,
tables, and floors in .kitchens and
pantries as free as possible from
crumbs and other food fragments,
and by storing, .food-stuffs in ant
proof containers. Furthei* informa
tion on the control of ants is given
in a mimeographed circular prepar
ed by the Entomological Branch, Do-
mionion Department of Agriculture

Branch of the Department in Ottawa
Now—Thanks to Kruschen
—Not a Trace of Pain
This woman’s life was made a
misery by the pains of backache.
Then her father, who had proved
the value of Kruschen himself, ad
vised her to try it. She did, and
here is her grateful letter:—
“For years I have been suffering
with pains in the back. At times I
had to stay in bed for days. I could
not walk, or even stand. My father
was using Kruschen Salts for the
same thing, He. too, used to suf-
ter badly, and Kruschen relieved
him. He advised me to try it. I
did so, and did not get a pain for
three years. I often neglected my
daily dose for about six months, and
two months ago the pain returned.
I tried another remedy—it failed, so
I again started Kru-sohen, Now I
have not a trace of pain, thanks to
Kruschen.”—(Mrs,) H. R.
Pains in the back are usually due
to impurities in the blood—waste
products which the internal organs
are failing to expel from the system.
The numerous salts in Kruschen as
sist in stimulating these organs to
healthy, normal activity, and so help
them to keep the system free from
harmful waste matter.

in the quality of the chicks.”

that produced the vigorous, growthy chicks described above. And

This is the time to begin the anti-fly campaign. No, we’re
not doling out advice to adventurous aviators but trying to give a
timely suggestion to all folk who have garbage in any form that
they may dispose of. Every bit.of stuff that is on its way to.mother
earth by any form of decay or fermentation should be burned or
buried forthwith. In this regard an ounce of prevention is worth
several tons of cure. Folk will find attention to this duty much
cheaper than doing this same work under compulsion. We’ll not
be surprised if the council has not already whispered something’ in

********
THOSE SUSPENDED SENTENCES
We have every confidence in the administration of justice in
this community. Our judges and magistrates are men wiho know
their duty and who discharge that duty. What we greatly fear is
that clemency on the part of these trusted officials is being
mistaken for weakness. We have heard remarks to this effect. We
wish to say that those who entertain any such opinion are" quite
(badly mistaken. A suspended sentence is a sentence that stands
as a sentence. It does not mean that the bench has placed the of
fender in the state of a person who <had not broken the law. Us
ually, if the offender should not take his lesson to heart and he
breaks the law a second time, the magistrate says something like
this. “You are a lawbreaker, even when authority has given you
a second chance to go straight. What is to be done with a party
like you who will not walk chalk even when we tell you to do so?
It is high time for you to learn that the way of the transgressor is
hard, very hard. Society will stand for only so much.” It is high
time that parents and others were reminding young people of this
fact.
********
INDUSTRIAL ORGANIZATION
It is an assured fact that large laibour organizations are here
to stay. The pressing question is what is to be done about it. The
policy for repression will not do. Still less helpful will prove the
way of accepting without due consideration the plans offered for
industrial betterment by many who evidently are not as considerate
of the rights and needs of the working man as they are eagei' to
place themselves in a position where they can dictate terms to any
government in power in their land. This would mean class govern
ment with destructive vengeance.
In this connection some things must be clearly seen. First,
all men are not,equally endowed foi’ service. Next, men ought
to be rewarded according to the service they render. The man
who lays 1/0.0 0 bricks per day deserves more wages than the man
Who, with equal opportunity to do so, lays but 500 bricks per day,
and so on with every worker. It must be recognized, too, that the
employer of laibour requires profits that he may sustain and increase
his business in size and quality and lay by a reserve sufficient to
sustain his business against the day of adversity. The Same prin
ciple must be recognized in the case of the man who sells his labor.
These are but a tew a very few, of the problems facing modern life
this hour. Sidestepping or evasion of any kind will not meet the
new day. In no sense is this a class problem. It is not only a
national problem but an international problem as well as a problem
that affects every son of Adam. Harking back to the past will not
get us anywhere. The policy erf." letting thing's drift is to invite
the whirlpool and the rapids. .To make this or that adjustment
will not meet the situation while the root cause of the trouble re
mains unremoved. To scotch the snake is not to kill it. Even less
is the situation to be cured by a battle of the ballots. It is a ques
tion of the deepest needs of the human spirit. Till men find out
that they are primarily not economic forces but spiritual beiugs
and work for spiritual satisfaction rather than for external rewards,
they will find no rest. The fault is not in our material conditions
but In our state Of mind. All history supports the statement.
