Around Town.
The clearing of the wends and
"docks" from the side, of the sweets
has made • great improvement and
with the lawns looking neat and green
the streets have taken on a tidy ap-
pearance.
The Town Band.
What hes become of the weekly
band concerts in the Square ? So far
this season none have been held. The
band is Mill in existence, although de-
pleted in numbers, but I believe there
are a sufficient number of members
left to he able to hold these concerts.
The concerts were very much aperel
elated by the townsfolk. as well as by
vieitors, as evidenced by the large
numbers that turned out to listen in
former years.
Hint to tie Musical Society.
If the reason for the discontinuance
of the concerts is through lack of
musicians, may 1 suggest to Iba Mus-
ical Society that more players be re-
cruited and trained ? There must be
quite a number of would-be musicians
who would be only too glad to learn
to play some instrument and bythis
means the band could be brougt up
to full strength. It is a pity to let this
institution drops, for even in war -time
music still holds • charm. At the
battlefront the soldiers welcome the
sound of the band after • spell in the
trenches.
Augwt 4th.
This date, the third anniversary of
the war, is to be a day of natiocal re-
ligious observance all over the Do-
minion, when the churches will hold
services for thoee who have fallen and
for the safety of our forces on land
and sea. So far no program has Leen
outlined for the event by the 1o0a1
churches. but it is certain they will
take part. '
An Eye-opener.
The recent report of the commission
on the high cost of living has
brought out some glaring facts which
should not go unheeded by the Gov-
ernment. The alleged five million
dollars' profit on bacon alone should
be enough to start them on the tracks
of other "profiteers." No one objects
to bearing some of the burdens of
war, but people do object to filling the
pockets of unscrupulous companies
who play havoc with the people's food,
A Necessity.
The letter from Mr. Keith Revell in
a recent issue of The Signal, urging
the appointment of a district represen-
tative of agriculture, is one which
should meet with the approval of the
county council. The appointment
would wean &whole lot to the farmers
of the county in solving the problems
with which they are continually con-
fronted, troth on the land and in the
raising of stock. it is to be hoped that
the county council will discuss the
matter at lee next meeting and if poe
slide reconsider its previous decteron.

The Story of the Stairs
Every time you go up stairs you can
test your state of health -the cond i t ion
of our blood.
o you arrive at the top of the stain
breathless and distressed? Does your
heart palpitate violently? Do you
have • pain in your side ? Perhaps
you even have to stop half way up,
with limbs Li -enabling and head dizzy,
too exhausted to go further without
renting. These are unfailing signs of
anaemia. As soon as Your blood be-
comes impoverished or impure the
staircase becomes an instrument of
tot tore. When this is so you are unfit
for work ; your blood is watery and
your nerves exhausted. you are losing
the joy of an active life and paving the
way for a further breakdown and de-
cline. In this condition only one thing
tan save you. You must put new,
rich. red blood into your veins without
further delay and so build up yotlg
health 'anew. To get this new, rich
blood give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a
fair trial, and they will give you new
vitality, sound health, and the power
to resist and throw off disease. For
more than a generation this favorite
medicine has been in use throughout
the world and has made many thous-
ands of weak, despondent men and
women bright, active and strong.
Yeu can get Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills through any dealer in medicine,
or by mail at 50 cents a box or six
hones for $2 50 from the Dr. 'Williams'
Medicine Co., Brockville, Oot.
