sr. 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 -

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

One day' recently there flashed over
the wires the sad news that Pte. Thomas
Garton, who was wounded on Sept. 24th,
hadpassedaway. 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.

ago. After a lengthened residence

dence in Brussels in 1894 where she

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.
Council adjourned.
