VITUS DANCE CAN BE EASLY CURED A Tonic for the Blood and Nerves With Rest All That Is Needed Many a child has been called awk- ward, has been punished in school for not keeping still or for dropping things, when the trouble was really St. Vitus dance. This trouble may appear at any age but is most often met between the ages of six and fourteen. The moat frequent cause of the disease is poor blood, aggravated by indoor confinement mental strain at school. Under these conditions the blood fails to carry nourishment to the nerves and the child begins to show listlessness and in- attention. Then it becomes rest- less and twitching of the muscles and jerking of the limbs and body follow. A remedy that cures it so thoroughly disease remains in Pills which renew Ing and strengthen - nerves. This is the the trouble, and par - no time in giving this sir child seems nervous Pa Y�urOi4Tdi:TQ' 4.1 ACCOUNTS' b DOMINION -EXPRESS .MONEY ORDERS $ 5.00 and under costs 3 cents. $ 5.00 to $10.00 •• 6 cents. $10.00 to $30.00 r" 10 cents.' $30.00 to $50.00 tie •' 15 cents.

Squires, Cannineton, Ont., say: "My only daughter, now fourteen years of age was troubled for several years with St. Vitus dance. She was so bad that at times she would lose control of her limbs and her face and eyes would be contorted. We had medical advice and medicine, but it did not help her. In fact we thought the trouble growing worse, and finally we had to take her from school. About a year ago we began giving her Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and by the time she had taken five boxes she was completely cured. and is now a fine, healthy girl. I firmly believe we owe this to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and are very grate- ful for her restoration to perfect health." You can get these pills from any dealer in medicine or ny mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. 111111 f - 11111111011 fig#11:11:l%I IIIi (4.� I�� -v l� "MADE IN CANADA" The 1917 Ford Touring Car $495.00 f. o. b, Ford, Ont.

Itis hard—only those who have passed through the Geth- semane know how hard—for the friends at home to bear up under the grief which is all most overwhelming, but there is great satisfaction in the knowledge that the dear son and brother died the death of a hero. and that his is the crown of victory in the deathless beyond.

Before retiring to the village a number of years ago, he had been a successful farmer in Howick township.

WEST WAWANOSH. - ' Special meeting of Council held on Sept. 30th, by request ofR eeve Murray The matter to be considered was a second appeal for financial aid for the British Red Cross Society. This appeal comes through His Honor the Lieuten- ant-Govenor of Ontario and endorsed by Government Proclamation, It is point- ed out that the outlay for the first two years of the war was $15.000,007, of which Ontario gave $1,513,655,76, of this West Wawanosh contributed $859.00, The estimated cost for this year is $8,750,000. Motion by Naylor and Purdon that this Council is of the opinion that West Wawanosh, as in the past, will respond heartly to this urgent appeal for funds on Trafalgar Day, Oct. 10. Ways and means for reaching all the ratepayers in this matter received Council's best consideration, which brought out the following motion by Purdon, that we ask for a voluntary contribution. In amendment by John- ston that in order to save the time and a certain amount of expense by a num- ber of collectors. it is advisable to place a rate on Collector's Roll which would provide a fair grant for this municipal- ity, to the end that ratepayers would feel that they had done their bit. This was seconded by Naylor and carried. Motion by Naylor and Purdon that a rate of 4/10 of one mill on the $ or 40c per $1000 of assessment be added to Collector's Roll for Red Cross grant, and that Clerk prepare by-law anthor- izing the same, Carried.
