INSTANT ACTION SURPRIS- ES MANY HERE This grocer's scary surprises local people: "1 had bad stomach trouble. All food seemed to sour and Corm gas. Was always constipated. Nothing helped until I tried buckthorn bark, glycerine. etc., as mixed in Adler-i-ka. ONE SPOONFUL astonished me with its IN- STANT action." Because Adler-i-ka flushes the ENTIRE alimentary tract it relieves ANY CASE constipation, sour stomach or gas and prevents appendicitis It has QUICKEST action of anything we ever sold. J. W. McKibben, druggist. THE WINGAM ADVANCE RETROSPECTION When 1 look back across the years That constitute my fleeting span, Time seems delusion that appears A dream, a shade, a myth, and man— A nothingness but half defined Unto myself, — a helpless blind Of circumstance. the spurious thing That wantons with this happening; All is such mystery—Death and Life— Day with its light, and night with its black Oblivion; everything, all is rife With a dreamer's dream, as I look back. But when with the Heart I live again Those hours that to the Heart belong, In the realm of Love, where pleasure and pain Haviog blent like refrain of a sad, sweet song; There comes as a benediction borne, The voice of Love to a hope forlorn Calling from bourn of the Spirit's rest. To a kindred soul in a trammel'd breast, And I know the message, yet cannot see, Aught of the Dead that beckon and call, Save as the phantoms of Memory, On the long, lone waste of Memory's wall.

Gales, who since his return from overseas as an officer of the 10th Canadians has been in charge of the Mowat Memorial Hospital, left on Mon- day for Montreal to become quartermaster of "A" Unit, Military Hospital Commis- :ion. Capt. Gales went overseas as a private and received his commission on the field. His capoainey came on Mon- day with the new position. This officer has proved to be very mu lar at the Mowat Hospital, and having been himself in the ranks, understood the patients in their own way and thus became immensely popular. Perhaps no other officer leaving that institution could be the cause of so much regret at his depar- ture or could be made the recipient of so many tokens of esteem. The orderlies of the institution gathered on Monday evening and presented him with a large leather travelling bag inscrib- ed. This was accompanied by a letter of appreciation of the kindness of Capt, Gales to his staff The patients of the Mowat were not behind the orderlies in their endeavour to 'show some tangible evidence of their ap- preciation-of p-preciationof the officer who had done so much on their behalf. They presented hint with a solid gold engraved watch of the finest make. This also was accom- panied by suitable remarks. The personal staff of the departing offic- er also made a presentation to him. They gave hint an eneaved gold mounted fountain pen and a letter expressing their regret at his departure. Capt. Gales career has been most re- markable He served twenty-two months in the trenches and was five times wound- ed. gaining for his gallantry two coveted distinctions, the distinguished service order, and the French Medaille Militaire. Beloved by his men and highly respected by all who had come in contact with him, he has established an inevitable reputa- tion in military circles. Considerate in everything, and a gentleman at all times, his memory shall long remain in the minds of the patients at the Mowat. After the presentations, Capt. Gales was so deeply touched that he was unable to reply. All wish him the best of luck in his new appointment, Kingston Whig. Capt. Gales is well known in Winghatn. He visited at the hone of Customs Offic- er Davis for a couple of weeks last sum- mer. TO THE 161st HURON BATT. When duty called, you must obey, Soldier lads: our soldier lads!

Suffer terribly with corns because of .high heels, but why caro now ilmiPPoPPOPPIP Women wear high heels which buckle up their toes and thoV suffer terribly front corns. Women then proceed to trine these pests, seeking relief, but they hardly realize the terrible danger from infection, says a Cincinnati anthority. Cosns can easily be lifted out with the fingers if you will get from any drug store a quarter of an cunco of a drug palled treezone. This is sufficient to remove every hard er soft cern or callous front one's feet. You simply apply a few drops directly upon the tender, aching corn or callous, root and all; lifts out without one particle of pain, This freezone Is a sticky substance which moment. dries, in a v o ant.

Lot Polities Drop A sergt-major had told the speaker to tell the people in Canada for God's sake to let politics drop and put all energy into the winning of the war, "On behalf of boys here I wish you to voice my . protest to the people in. Canada against what I call the crime of an election in war time; we have no time to bother with such mat- ters; the struggle here must be won."— Rev. T. T. Shields, speaking in Adelaide St. Baptist Church, London, Uo Uuto Others Many people are very ready to send notices to the newspapaper of coaling events, particularly entertainments which they want to advertise without it costing anything, but not 1 in 10 ever bother their heads to see that a bright, brief re- port of said gathering is sent to the said said newspaper after the event, It looks like a one-sided bargain in which the press gets the worst of it, How do you do in such matters? Some folk appear to think it does not cost a cent to run a newspaper. They often forget favors of this kind and when intend "paying" look up the fellow who will cut the price rather than loose the business.
