SAVED FRO

Seldom. has a more tragic tale, been
told than that of this young woman,
whose parents `brothers and sisters
have all died of consumption, leaving
her alone to make a living as best she
could:
Never --robust, hard work and worry
soon undermined her health, when- she,
too, becorite a victim of this dreaded
disease: Shunned by friends who
feared contagion, without funds, ' for
she had been unable to save from her
small • earnings,. sheer seemed doomed,
like the others of hci• family, to an
untimely grave. Fortunately, she was
discovered and sent to the Muskoka
Free Hospital, before it was too late,
Where she -is now doing well, with
every chance of ultimate recovery.
Appeals are now being made for the
Muskoka Free hospital for Consump-
tives to enable it to continue the great
work -of caring for just such cases as
this': No matter how small the gift
it will be welcome.

which the men of the German Navy
have been for the. most— part con-

et the circumstances put forward in
the newspapers. So "far. as he was
able to judge, there is, in addition, a
large section of the population which,
having invested in warloans, is anx-
ious for the war to be won by any
means; but he nevertheless consid-
ers that there are in educated Ger-
man circles many who disapprove of
the methods of warfare adopted by.
the German authorities, although
their•voices cannot now be heard.
Asked, with reference to the war
loans, whether any compulsion to
subscribe is exercised upon' men. in.
the navy, the speaker. stated that'
there is no compulsion in connection
w'th the 15 marks a month paid to
the German:' bluejacket --although,
to be sure, a goodly part of that goes
to the payment of taxes; but there
are fresh regulations with regard to
the clothing allowance' of 12 marks -a
month. If this was left untouched,
the men used to be entitled to claim.
the total 144, marks' at the end of the
year; but now they, are compelled to
invest at least 100 marks'in the war
loan.
With regard to shipbuilding 'activ-'
ity in Germany during the war, the
speaker's impression was that,at all
the main centers at,any 'rate, it has

building of warships, not 'merchant -

- EAT ORANGES AT NIGHT.

If you are troubled with sleepless-

oranges before retiring. Oi'alges are
the best sedative intim world. A man
on 1110 orauge diet will never get rheu-
matism, and be will have' no appetite
for alcoholic liquors. Both apples aiid
oranges cure the liquor habit.
Oranges, eaten before -retiring, will
make you sleep so soundly that you
arise in the morning_ invigorated and
refreshed, with the notion that you
have been :drugged with some potion
that makes life all the happier and joy-
ous. The acid of the orange will help
purge you In case You need purging,
and the sugar of the orange will sweet-
en your breath and your whole body.
The coolness of the juice will reduce
the fevers of your digestive' tract, and
you will be 1,000 per r0u1 better off for
the orange diet,

The orange was wiginally a berry in

Alexander the Great, andit has been

About Temperature.
The best authorities on the science of
Meteorology tell us that without the
various changes, in the temperature
there Would be a perfect calm at all
times ill au parts of the g>o1he. A uni-
form and unvarying barometric pres-
sure would everywhere prevail, and
there would be no change of seasons,
no evaporation or condensation,'.no
clouds and no rain. In short, without
changes of temperature, which we
sometimes think so uneomforta'ble the
atmosphere would soon become poison-
ous, stagnant and incapable of sus-
taining human life..:

DO YOU SUFFER

If'•you had suffered for y. ars from
Rheumatism and then isad fame a
treatment that banishe&your
niade+you_spry on your feet once more,
would you want to .keep. the 'remedy
secret, or would you want to pass on
the good word to other sufferers ?
It is an outstanding feature of the
hundreds of letters received by a pro-
minent
firm of manufacturing druggists
that after returning thanks for the
relief'affarded, the wish is expressed to
let others know- the good news.
Here are a " few extracts that will
interest. anyone who has Rheumatism—
"I have recommended Gin Pills to
some of my friends who are trodbled
in, the same way."
"Would advise all sufferers from
Rheumatism to try Gin Pills.
"I recommend"Gin Pille to every-
one suffering as I did."
"I take great pleas• ee in'rece•-u-

The Ford Saves the Hay and
the Hi;rses Eat
T HAS been estimated that five acres of land are required to maintain
one horse for a year, and that the same five acres would produce
nearly enough food for two people. If 50,000 Canadian farmers each
replaced one horse with a Ford, 250,000 acres would be added to the
Nation's source of food supply and enough extra food made available to
feed 100,000 people.
Just think what a great service this means to the country at the present
time and the benefit to the farmers from the sale of food produced on
this acreage.
A Ford car also saves the farmer a week or more of valuable time each
year, which can be used for further productive work. The Ford travels
three times'' as fast as a horse and rig—costs less to run and keep, and is
far easier to take care of. With labor so scarce: and high priced, time
means money, so do not delay in getting your Ford.
