any other medicine to equal Baby's Own
Tablets for litt'e ones. 1 would use them
for my baby and would use nothing else."
What Mrs. Lefebvre says thousands of
other people say. they have found by

is claimed Corm. The Tablets' are a

In this issue -if The Signal appears a
list o['.books recently feceived at

read who has access to these books. It is
not a reading age : the automobile and
the moving -picture show have almost
crowded books out of many Fives : but al
liking for reading is still one of the best
gifts of the gods.
Peter McArthur says "It is to the credit
of the cities that the squirrels play so fear-
lessty about the streets and on the lawns
as well as in the parks. Evid:ntly they
are not troubled either by gu• s or by
sticks and stones." Mr. McArthur would
enjoy a visit to Goderich, where he would
see a colony of red squirrels disporting
themselveson the Square under the di'
tinguished patronage and protection of
she county officials, including. the Sheaf
and the Crown Attorney.

Be a Successful Cook!
EVERY won_ aU realizes that one
of the big secrets of succesJul

Discriminating cooks use EASI-

BY A FORMER GODERICH GIRL.
The Toronto Globe publishes some
verses which, it says. -appeared In a late
true of a scho,l magazine, called The
Rainbow. The author has been detected
betund a pen -name. and curiously enough
rhe turns out to be the daughter of a
former American Consul• and the sister of
another : a fact which makes her poem a
delicate compliment to Canada. and one
which deserves grateful recognition from
Canadians.'' Carolyn Chilton is un-
doubtedly the daughter of the late R. S.
Chilton, who for many years was the
cultured and kindly representative of the
Lnited States at Goderich. and The
Signal in republishing the verses wishes to
tender a word of appreciation in behalf of
I the people of Goderich to whom they will I
bring pleasant recollections of She Chilt on
family.
i love the wholesome, simple li •
The freedom from ambitious s �fe,
The round of pleasures, not too rife.
In dear old Canada.
1 love the forests vast and grand.
The lakes, the seas of pratrie-land,
The rivers with fair bredgesspanned,
in dear old Canada.
i love the graceful maple trees.
Their spring -aim, generosities,
1 heir autumn -shaded tapestries.
In dear old Canada.
I love the generous fields of wheat.
That whiten into flour sweet.
Where east and western bound'ries meet,
In dear old Canada.
i love the pleasant, dreamy haze
That comes in Indian -summer days,
The crow -lines on their southward ways,
In dear old Canada.
I love the frost in early fall.
That cleaves the prickly chestnut ball,
And yields the glossy fruit to all,
In dear old Canada.
I love the long, cold winter days
That group us round the ruddy blaze.
When snow has covered all the ways.
In dear o:d Canada.
I love the long toboggan slides,
That every other sport derides.
The hockey games, the snowshoe strides.
in dear old Canada.
1 love our guileless womanhood,
Their frank pursuit of right and good.
Prey t r no vain or worldly mood.
in dear old Canada.
1 love to think that duty's voice
Left in our noble sons no choice
But to he heroes—and rejoice
The heart of Canada.
I love those pioneers who trod
The martyr's way—whose work for God
Now blossoms from the very soil,
Of dear old Canada.
