Kruschen Put Him Right
For four years, this man’s back
ached almost continuously. Now, at
57, he starts the day fresh as a
daisy, and his back aches no more.
Read his story:—
“I had continuous backache for
four’ yeai’s. I looked on the black
side of everything. Now, J write with
extreme gratitude, for what Kruschen
Salts have done for me. The fresh
ness with which I start my day’s
work is perfectly marvellous, After
seven days of Kruschen, I felt bet
ter and could get up immediately,
without any special effort. I am 57,
and my early morning dose of Krus
chen is my salvation.”*—J. T.
The kidneys are the filters of the
human machine. If • they become
sluggish, impurities find their way
into the blood-stream and produce
troublesome symptoms — backaches,
rheumatism and depression.
The numerous salts in Kruschen
quickly coax your kidneys back to
healthy normal action. As an immed
iate result, you experience relief
from those old dragging pains. As
you presevere, you lose your pains
altogether,

GODERICH — Two young men,
James W. Foster, of Galt, and (Le
wis Wakefield, of Moorefield, aged
21 and 22 years respectively, .plead
ed guilty to 24 charges of burglary
in four Western Ontario counties on
Thursday afternoon of last week
and were sentenced to. five years
each in Kingston penitentiary by
Magistrate J. A. Makins, the •sen
tences to run concurrently.
A, grim smile came over Wake
field’s face as sentence was passed,
but the refined looking, well-dress
ed Foster, took his sentence keenly,
Both had records involving similiar
offences, and are not long out of
■reformatory.
The young men admitted break
ing, entering and stealing cash and
jewellery from five residences in
Huron County, six in Oxford, 12 in
Wellington, one in the Town of Ti.ll-
sonburg with a total vaule of $»1,-
00'0.
Little Recovered
The loot consisted .of watches,
rings, ear rings, necklaces, cameras,
medals, alarm clocks,, children’s
money banks. The jewelry was sold
■for old gold, and the money dissi
pated. Virtually, nothing of value
was recovered.
The arrests were affected by a
posse headed by Provincial Con
stable P. E. McCoy, at T’illsonburg,
three days after the Huron robber
ies were committed.
“There are other charges in Mid
dlesex and Perth Counties to come
before you but these can be dealt
with next week,” said Crown Attor
ney D. E. Holmes in asking for peiii-
tentary sentences, pointing to pre
vious convictions and jail terms
dating back to 193 4.
Defence Counsel Frank Connelly
stressed that there had been no gun
play, no violence, and that in most
cases accused had found the doors
open while occupants were absent.
“During the period these of
fences were being committed in
Wellington, Huron and Oxford coun
ties, you young men would, have no
trouble getting work,” said the mag
istrate. “You were not looking for
work. You were shown leniency
before and after being paroled you
deliberately and systematically,
time after time* committed .these
burglaries. Let this be a warning
to others. I hope it will benefit
you. (The sentence to you and each
of you, will be five years in Ports
mouth penitentiary, they to run con
currently.”

lowing homes ill Western Ontario:

HELD BY POLICE
Wanted on a .chagre of theft by
conversion, Orville McCluskey, 2S-
year-old Goderich' trucker, was ar
rested by provincial ’police on a dis
trict r6ad and lodged in the county
jail. The trucker is alleged to have

the money obtained for the grain.
A warrant for McCluskey’s arrest
was obtained.
ADVERTISERS PAY FOR IT
Some very interesting figures
have recently been published con-.,
cerning The Saturday Evening Post.
The average man will doubt that it
•costs the publishers approximately
fourteen cents to put each copy of
the magazine ill the subscriber’s
hands when it can be purchased ar
any news stand for a nickel and if
taken by the year the price is less
than that. When their advertising
rates are taken into consideration
one gets some idea Where the extra
money comes from. We understand
a full page advertisement in one is
sue runs as high as $13,'000 to $16,-
■00'0,000 depending on t'he location
of the page" Other interesting fi
gures follow:
Paper needed to print each issue,
if stretched out .would form a path
45 inches wide and 11,000 miles
long. The copies of One issue laid
end to end, would stretch from New
York almost to Chicago. And if you
stacked ail these copies flat, you’d
■have a pile twenty-nine times the
height of the Empire State Building.
If you tore out the pages of one
issue, yok’d have a blanket which
would almost cover Trenton, the
capital city of New Jersey, It takes
thirty tons of ink each issue. It takes
232 miles of wire to Staple each
week’s issue together. That means
there are 12,964 miles of steel wire
in the 166 million odd issues print
ed each year, To handle this print
ing, seventy-four presses run twenty-
four hours a day, five days a week
and get their power from a plant big
enough to electrify a town of 22,••
000 people.
TIME MARCHES ON
Recently in cleaning up an old attic, a bundle of newspapers was found, brown with age. Amongst them was a copy of "The Buffalo Illustrated Express’ of July 13th, 1901, in which under the caption “Some Toronto Gossip" an interesting article appears.It is headed "Tent Hospitals for Consumption Patients", and is evidently a press despatch from Toronto, reading— In a very short time a tent hospital for the treatment of consumption patients will be established". It goes on to state that the selection of .a site was causing much, difficulty; that the proposal of a consumption hospital came from half a dozen City physicians, some of whom were willing to donate theif^services free of charge because of the great need of having some place for those suffering from the White Plague, without travelling far from Toronto.With the approval of the theh Provincial Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Bryce, it was proposed to have nearly a dozen tents, some for cooking, others for
sleeping, and the first of such tents were to be borrowed from tlio Militia Department,This proposal was made just three years before the Toronto Hospital for Consumptives was established and doubtless
was instigated by a marked change in public opinion as to the curability of tuberculosis, forced by tho success attained at the little hospital in Muskoka which had been erected by the National Sanitarium Association some eight years earlier, the first hospitaffor the treatment of tuberculosis in Canada.Looking back to those early days when patients were housed in tents or canvassed, open front /Wooden /shacks, tending their Own fires, helping with the preparation of food, carrying water from a Central pump, and other chores, one Is tempted to think that the cure was almost worse than the disease.What an evolution there has boon! Take tho Muskoka and Toronto Hospitals for Consumptives and the Queen Mary Hospital for Consumptive Children
as models of present day sanatoria, with tlmir great buildings scientifically equipped and adequately staffed, Where skilled medical and surgical troatmont may bo given, accompanied by export
nursing care. . '■. „Of course, such Service is costly ana
these hospitals must have help in caring for tho tuberculous poor. That is why you arc asked to contribute. Will you please send your gift to National Sanitarium Association, 223 College Street,
Toronto.
