Read, what he says:—' ”Twp years, ago I suffered very much &pm indigestion, loss of appetite, and . a most severe pain in my back. Food soured in my stomach. I felt most miserable after meals, and had no desire or appetite for them. A friend advised me to try Kruschen Salts. I did so, and I am most happy to testify that after a short time I felt the greatest relief. I continued taking Kruschen till I felt myself quite better and a new map. I feel as light-hearted as I did twenty years age.”—W.B. The several salts in Kruschen combine to get at the root of many common ills.

Men, women and children not knowing what it was thought the Germans must be in­ vading and sought safety by hiding in cellars. The blasting of rock by a farmer on the Lake Road account­ ed for the explosion. He had used too much powder and and by doing so shook the near by buildings and broke all the windows in his barn. al 15 YEARS AGO A number of the officers brethren of Lebanon Forest Lodge visited the Lucan Lorge on Monday evening and conferred the third de­ gree in a manner that called forth much favorable, comment.

Why—the money in the banks! The money care­ fully put away by you and your neighbours in savings accounts. The money you could have spent today but wanted to keep safely against some future need. The businessman’s money for use in his normal operations. There are more than 4,846,000 bank deposit accounts, savings and current. Within these two classes the great majority of deposits are small or of moderate amount. c But you’d be wrong if you assumed from this, that the rest of the deposits are owned by the few! Quite the contrary! The railways, for instance, have deposits in the chartered banks —and that indirectly includes the whole population of the Dominion. The trade unions have deposits. Millions of policy-holders share in the ownership of insurance companies’ deposits. <£And don’t overlook the deposits of wheat pools; farm co-operatives; churches; municipalities and municipal hydro commissions, school districts; school children’s penny bank savings deposited with the chartered banks; and commercial and mining corpora­ tions with very wide lists of shareholders, large and small, all over Canada. Iruly, money on deposit in Canada’s chartered banks is owned, in fact) by you and your fellow-Canadians.
