® Your liver is the largest organ in your body

Again your liver pours out bile to digest food,

to reach your blood. When your liver gets
out of order proper digestion and nourishment
stop—you’re poisoned with the waste that
decomposes in your intestines. Nervous
troubles and rheumatic pains arise from this
Eoison. You become constipated, stomach and
idneys can’t work properly. The whole
system is affected and you feel ’’rotten,” head
achy, backachy, dizzy, tired out—a ready prey
for sickpess and disease.
Thousands of people are never sick, and have
won prompt relief from these miseries with

Every lad and his lass in this good town are busy at some job
that helps on with the world’s work. This is as it should be. Slack

“THAT WAY AND NO OTHER”
A friend who has driven tens of thousands of miles in his day
was out on the road not long ago. As he moved along he picked
up a hitch-hiker who proved to be the driver of an army truck.
Our friend was eager to see how the army driver performed and
gave him the wheel. “It was the best bit of driving I ever enjoyed,’’
our friend reported. “The army teaches you to drive one way and no
other,” the army man explained. Is there a valuable hint in all
„this? We had the privilege of asking a surgeon about a very deli
cate bit of his professional activity. “I never pick up what I can’t
lay -down,” he told us. “This thing does not consist in practice.
You must learn the right way and do it in no other way.” The

Exeter has every reason to be proud of theExeter has every reason to be proud of the way her merchants
and business men have carried on, not only during the years of
the war already lived through, hut ever since the town was granted
her charter. Only close inquiry reveals the cost to the merchants
in establishing this record. Difficulty after difficulty has been en
countered by the men and women who have served us. Some mer
chandisers have gone down under the strain. Every day these try
ing times there are new difficulties in the way of restrictions and
prohibitions. Still our dealers meet us with smiling faces and with
no word of complaint. All these citizens ask is a fail’ deal. They
seek no favours. They do not ask that they should carry on at any
customer’s loss. Their policy is live and let liVe. Meanwhile
Main Street pays an astonishingly large proportion of the taxes of
the town, to say nothing of supporting every worthwhile enterprise
for the good of the town and the locality. Why not, then, give these
men a look in when a shopping list is being made out? We believe
that the offerings of our merchants compare favorably in quality

WELL DONE CANADA!
During the past week we have had privileges that few per
sons in Canada have experienced—to peep behind the scenes and
see something of Canada’s war effort. To us the words tremendous,
gigantic, stupendous, do not describe it; miraculous comes nearer
to it. What man or group of men could devise and bring to accomp
lishment in so short a time so gigantic a task is beyond the imagina
tion. What we saw was just the fringes, but enough to cause us to
visualize something of the enormity. As we stood on the parade
ground at Manning Pool and saw the men in uniform and the new
recruits not yet in uniform we pondered on the task of equipping,
feeding, training and then sending them out to other training centres
that had to be built and equipped in so short a time. Then later, as
we saw machine guns being manufactured and saw something of the
/machinery that first had to be made before the different parts of
the machine guns could be made and we multiplied that by anti
aircraft guns, marine engines, aeroplane ^engines, motor trucks,
tanks, etc., the thought occurred to me—who am I to judge or
criticize those who have undertaken so tremendous a job that has
received the endorsation of the men at the top of our fighting forces
and of our allies that know of Canada’s war effort. All we could
think of was “Well Done Canada!”

STRIPPED FOR ACTION
When the Chinese saw that the Japanese fleet was stripping
her one by one of her coastal towns and manufacturing centres,
they picked up what ma'chinery was left and carried it on their
backs hundreds and sometimes thousands of miles to the interior
of their country and there continued to supply the armies of the
great leader with arms and munitions. Rarely were there one
hundred Chinese working togethei’. More often there were groups
of five oi’ six and. still /more frequeiitly individual men carried on
this patriotic work. In. most cases governmental assistance was
given these heroes. We know of no case in which anything like
monetary compensation was given. Each toiled for the good of
his native land. Foi' the most part the work was done in caves
Of the mountains amid dripping wet from the walls of the caves, the
workers being protected, when fortunate, with .something like a
tarpaulin. Yet these‘workers sustained the fight against the con
querors of Pearl Harbour and Oorregedor and the destroyers of the
Prince of Wales and the Repulse for mote than five years. The
Chinese are something like down to business. These linen wait foi'
no Niagara to ‘turn their lathes but supply the energy needed from
their own bone and sinew. The lesson is plain foi’ the rest of us
to read, mark, learn and inwardly digest.
