Nine Power Treaty Tokio--^ If is highly possible that Japan denounce the nine-power treaty, 'which was signed at the H busy plant—the hum of machinery—the steady movement of HYDRO 'Ll I !U 5 rr I*. I T J parts toward an assembled whole—finally—the manufactured pro duct which brings profit to the manufacturer, salaries to staffs payrolls for the workers. Throughout Ontario this steady hum of industry is increasing- payrolls are being added to—manufacturing costs are steadily rising higher—yet the cost of the driving force of Ontario industry—Hydro power—moves steadily downward. Have you ever stopped to consider what would happen if Hydro power was suddenly cut off throughout the Province—the loss in money and inconvenience you would suffer? How vital Hydro is to industry? You should, because Hyd^o means much to you in personal income. Low cost power attracts industries, with consequent employment of thousands of workers increasing the individual buying power within the Province, conse quently influencing your income regardless of your occupation. ‘ «- " •A***'*' » The success of Hydro in the past two years in lowering power costs has been outstanding. Its efforts to increase the prosperity of our Province by lowering power costs still further, and extending the benefits of low-cost electricity to those in citiesj and those on farms, to commerce, to industry, to alii who may benefit by its use, is something which you, as a partner in^ this enterprise, may take justifiable pride.t HYDRO ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 377A order to protect the kidneys frpm harm. The focal infection in tonsils, teeth, sinuses, or other parts, which makes for a chronic poisoning of the body, frequently leads to nephritis. Faulty habits of life, which strain the body, may break down the kidney function. Nephritis exists in varying degrees from a very slight chronic condition to a severe acute stage. It is often discovered by accident. The-individ ual, not suffering in any way, consid- Toronto D.R.O. Arrested! Aplication made by Lionel Conach- er for b^iil for the release of* Michael J.

U.S. Congress to Meet Soon Hyde Park, N.Y.—President Roos evelt said he is considering calling a special session of Congress, starting between Nov. 6 and 16, to consider crop control, wages and hours,^Gov ernment reorganization, regional planning—and possibly a new Court up for life insurance examination and much to his surprise, learns that he has kidney trouble. Such a chance discovery is fortunate because it per mits of the proper early treatment which is so necessary if the condi tion is to be prevented from becom ing more serious. It is surely not wise to leave t such vital things to chance. Is it not much more reason able to have a health examination once a year in order to know if ab normal conditions do exist, and then to go under treatment promptly in the earliest stages of the disease. The prevention of nephritis begins early in life. It begins with the pre vention of the common communic able disease and their propert treat ment, if they occur. No focus of in fection should be allowed to continue untreated. Propdr diet, the avoidance of any excesses in food or drink, the use of sufficient water, will prevent abuse of the kidney.

A HEALTH SERVICE OF THE CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES IN CANADA Bright’s disease takes its name from Richard Bright, an English physician, who, in 1827, published his observations on disease of the kid ney. Bright’s Disease, or . nephritis, is art inflammation of the kidney. The human body is provided with two kidneys. Their function is the removal of waste material, the pro duct of the working body brought to the kidneys in the blood. 1'hey are indispensable organs; the life of the body cannot continue if they cease to function. The kidneys may be damaged by being called upon to remove an ex- cessive amount of waste, when they simply break down under the over- strain. They may be damaged by poisons which are produced in the body by germs and which are carried to the kidneys in the blood stream. It should be borne in mind that, during ehildho’od, when scarlet fever, tonsillitis of any other infection oc curs, whether severe or mild, germ poisons are produced. The proper care in such cases is necessary in
