Dispense With Luxuries The Globe makes the apt and timely observation that people who have never known luxury will not have to be taught how to avoid waste of food stuff:,. There is altogether too much preaching to the eofnenon people these day. if the wealthy people in the cities would dis- pense with come of their luxuries the country would have saving that would be worth while. The money that is :.pent in expensive yachts, automobiles, summer outings and needless luxuries at home would soon make a respectable war fund. MERCHANT'S WIFE ADVIS- ES WINGED' WOMEN "I had stomach trouble so bad I could eat nothing but toast, fruit and hot water. Everything else soured and formed gas. Dieting did no good. I was miserable until I tried buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc., as mixed in Adler-i-ka. ONE 'SPOONFUL benefitted me INSTANT- LY." Because Adler-i-ka empties BOTH large and small intestine it relieves ANY CASE constipation, ;:our stomach or gas and prevents appendicitis. It has QUICKEST action of anything we ever sold. J. W.

It will be greatly to the advantage of Canada if the entire quota of 1.00,000 men to be raised under the Military Service Act can be secured from the first class; that is, from the men between the ages of 20 and 34 who were unmarried or widowers without children ori July 6th, 1917. This is almost self-evident for the following reasons t it is Admitted that, between the ages of 20 and 34, the average man is at the height of his physical strength and is most adaptable to the change of conditions from civilian life; the military service of unmarried men and widowers without children would occasion less distress than that of most others, since they are largely without dependents. Also, it would entailless financial burden for Canada, through separation allowances, ete, liestlities estimate that, after all proper"exemptions have been allowed, Canada should be able to prt'ineee e first class 100,000 men fit for service, so the drain upon the man power of the country will tat re, Members of Class One will be well advised to present themselves for eataniination immediately to the Medical Board in their district, Upon examination as to their physical fitness, they will be placed in one of the following categories: Category A—if fit for service In overseas lighting units.

This form, when filled in, will be forwarded by the postmaster to the ee istrar of the district andthe t applicant .i g ,pp alt will be wormed by mail as to too time and place far the consideration of his applicatio,t by the Exemption Board.. 137 !sauce! $y TAc It✓liiiitzry uerv:ee Coat:ciL WAR SERVICE BADGES 1.
