Pain sapped her strength until she lost hope of recovery. Many remedies were tried, but nothing broke the grip of her crippling rheu­ matism. At last her husband per­ suaded her to try Kruschen Salts:— "My arms and feet were swollen with rheumatism,” she writes. "I could not walk nor get regular sleep, and nothing did me any lasting good. I was better, tirely. ed me two weeks I began to feel better. I persevered, and in six weeks, I was doing housework. Later, I was able to go for a walk. Now I am free from pain and I feel grand.”—(Mrs.) F.W. Rheumatism is commonly caused by deposits of uric acid crystals which lodge in the muscles and joints. Kruschen helps to break up these deposits of troubling crystals and to convert them into a harmless solution, which is removed through the natural channel — the kidneys. filed. J. L.

The general manager of the Canadian company controlling the production of nickel in the Dominion stated in his presidential address re­ cently, that approximately $1S,75O,- *000 had been expended in the past twenty years in research, develop- _ ment and publicity to create peace- ‘ time uses for nickel. "Whereas prior to and during the Great War the greatest part of the world’s nickel production was used in arma­ ment,” he said, "today the converse was true and all but a small part of the world’s nickel is absorbed by in­ dustry for a multitude of peace-time uses.” Nickel is the minor importance in warfare as contrasted with steel, copper, zinc and lead, he observed. Not only does but a small fraction of nickel go into war materials, but the percentage that does go into ar­ maments represents a negligible per­ centage of the total of all metals us­ ed fo-r such purposes. "For example no nickel whatever is used in rifle or machine gun barrels or in bayonet steel. Nickel in bullet jackets has been replaced largely by "gliding metal” a less expensive alloy con­ taining no nickel whatsoever. Nickel is used in large gun forgings, trucks, aeroplanes and in armour for battle­ ships. The alloy steels used for the purposes enumerated contain only from 1 to 5 per cent, of nickel and the amount of nickel so used is less than 10 per cent, of the world out­ put. Thus nickel is not essentially a war metal, nor is it essential to war whether gauged by the percentage of nickel which goes into armament or whether gauged by the percentage of armament metal which is respre- ented by nickel. "Nickel is sold in bulk to steel makers and alloy manufacturers throughout the world, who, in turn, sell their-bearing products to numer­ ous fabricators for final distribu­ tion to numerous users. Thus the nickel used in armament exclusively cannot be segregated successfully.” A Scotchman who had a nose bleed hurried to the hospital. When one of the in the free clinic examined him: Doctor—We can st op that in a few minutes. Don’t be alarmed, i man—But before you stop it, there anyone in the hospital needs a blood transfusion?

CANADA’S FOLK-SONGS the last Canada is mindful of her past. An evidence of this happy retrospection is the possession of the largest col­ lection of recorded folk-songs in N. America. They are filed away in National Museum at Ottawa, where seven thousand cylindrical record­ preserve the lilting songs. The lyrics are set down in books, the double task having been undertaken by Mar­ ius Barbeau and Diamond Jenness, anthropologists at the National Mu­ seum, and some of their confreres. A world-wide revival of folk-songs in the repertoire of musicians is be­ ing in evidence daily, the anthropolo­ gists say. It is through the medium of recordings that folk-songs can be borrowed learned and internationlly exchanged. ’ Tucked way in small out-of-the- way hamlets scattered across the country are found melodies of the early French settlers. In many cases the origin and history of the songs have been forgotten but the original beauty remains. Weddings, village fairs and religi ious celebrations abound with folk­ songs and at these gatherings many new songs come to light. Approxi­ mately 4,000 recordings of iFrench- Canadian folk-songs have been made. Some themes date back to 1680. The subject matter is varied, legendary, adventurous, gallant, in­ spirational, mocking and capricious. Almost 3,000 songs of the 50 In­ dian tribes of the woods of North America and songs of the inhabitants of the Arctic rim are included in the collection. Drums, rattles, whis­ tles and horns add accompaniment to the singing of the painted Indian warriors at their campfire dances. Believed to be inspired during dream­ like trances, these original songs of the red-men re a heritage. Payment was demanded by a father before passing the song down to his son. Even now confidence must be estab­ lished with the Indian before he will consent to sing for a recording. Song of the Eskimo are change­ able. He sings and plans songs dur­ ing the spring and summer and fall months to be sung at the dances in the winter. Like the modern dance music some of these songs make a hit and remain favorites from year to year, but more often last only one season. A happy and musically-inclined race of mysterious origin, the Es­ kimo will sing his songs freely and wthout embarrassment WHALEN Hodgins-Squirv Whalen Church was the scene of a pretty wedding decorated with au­ tumn flowers xvlien Velma Ileen, only daughter of Mr. Squire was united Norman Hodgins, Mr. and Mrs. Ri< Blanshard.
