MOTHER OF FIVE WHO WAS ALWAYS TIRED Now Awakeg as Fresh as a Daisy A mother of five has a lot to do. Especially a country mother. And this one was "always tired”. But Kruschen ended all that—now she gets up, feeling fresh, at five o’clock in the morning! She writes: "I find Kruschen Salts the best thing money1 can buy for my health. I am the mother of five children, and before taking Kruschen, I was always feeling tired and run down, Now, I am glad to say that I get feeling fresh—and I get up at five o’clock in the morning. I do my housework, look after my children, and leave the house at 6.30 to start my daily work." —(Mrs.) B. Tiredeness and that run-down feel­ ing can be traced to one root cause. That cause is internal sluggishness; failure to keep the inside free from poisonous, waste matter. Kruschen Salts is an excellent re­ cipe for maintaining a condition of internal cleanliness. The numerous salts in Kruschen stimulate your in­ ternal organs to smooth, regular ac­ tion. Your inside is thus kept clear of those impurities which, when al­ lowed to accumula’te, lower the whole tone of the system. Fancy Evergreens Such as ate being used for dec- btatihg your home surroundings, have just arrived from Holland.

NOTICE RE FIRE TRUCK AND FIRE ALARMS The attention of citizens and mot­ orists in the Town of Wingham is drawn to the following provisions of the plighway Traffic Act: Section 39, subsection 17: "The driver of a vehicle, upon the approach of an ambulance, fire or pol­ ice department vehicle, or public util­ ity emergency vehicle upon which a bell or siren, is sounding, shall im­ mediately bring such vehicle to a standstill as near as it is practicable to the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway and parallel therewith and clear of any intersection.” Section 39, subsection 18: "No vehicle shall follow any fire department vehicle when responding to an alarm at a distance of less than five hundred feet.” Penalty for violation of the above —not over $10 for first offence. The co-operation of all citizens is sought by the Town Council in car­ rying out the above provisions to pre­ vent accidents and assist in having the fire apparatus promptly at the scene of a fire. J. W. Hanna, W. A. Galbraith, * Mayor. Clerk. 12th LINE HOWICK Mr. Robert Baker attended the funeral of his cousin at Plattsville. Mr. James Underwood, who is spending a few days with his son, Wesley, is not as well as his many friends could wish. ,Mr. Wasman is spending a few days here with his daughter, Mrs. Cleve Stafford, also her sister from the West.

Mrs. Wilford Brown is spending a few days with her sister in Detroit. In a preliminary. resolution made public, Mr. Dunning disclosed the measure would make available some $116,000,000 in new money for hous­ ing building, in addition to the ex­ penditures made under the Housing Act of 1935 which up to date amount to about $14,000,000. It will not all be Government mon­ ey, however, for the 1935 Housing Act involves loans by private lending institutions with the Dominion Gov­ ernment lending 20 per cent, of the total value of a new house where the institution lends 60 per cent. This principle will be continued in the new act. The important feature of the new measure is that it brings $30,000,000 of Dominion Government money into the low-cost housing field.
