U. S. NEUTRALITY WAS NOT DIS-
SERVICE.
(New York Times.)
Of course, it ill becomes any people
tq p •folia their own generosity or the
maglainde of the services rendered by
them to other people in need of help.
It is nut less unseemly, however, for
those who have accepted sympathetic
assistance to make bitter and public
complaint that it was not larger in
amount and different in form, and just
this has been done, and is still done, so
frequently by persons who claim to
speak the mind of France and England
that their denunciations of what they
scornfully call "American neutrality"
threatens in time to give us excuse for
reminding them that they owe us a not
inconsiderable debt of gratitude.
Not all Englishmen or all Frenchmen,
indeed. repudiate or ignore that debt.
Those of both nations who have any
depth or breadth of vision cordially
recognize the value of a neutrality the
expressions of which have been the
contribution of money by millions,
much hard work, and the risking of
many and losing of more than a few
American lives on and near the firing
foodstuffs and raw materials obtain 11
here, as well as for all the credit, they
have had to pa • the market prices that
war creates, they should not f •eget
that deprivation of the same privileges,
expensive as some of them have been
provides a basis for the only well -
reasoned predictions of ultimate defeat
for the Central Empires.
Especially have those Americans
grounds to resent harsh French criti-
cism who have devoted themselves to
relief work in France. - Of that number
is Mme. Frances Wilson Huard, an
American woman who has done nothing
else since the outbreak of the great
conflict. She is magnanimous enough
to say that the Frenchmen who com-
plain of American indifference do so in
ignorance of what has been done and
is doing by Americans for them.
Probably that is true, but to a pa) mp
removing of that ignorance is a duty to
be performed by the better instructed
French, not by the accused Americans.
Could Not Sie e P
Miss Gertrude Pratt, Wolsley, St.,
Barrie, Ont., writes: "I was very
much run down and could not sleep
either day or night and my arms and
legs ached so that life was very miser-
able. After using six boxes of Dr.
Chase's Nerve Food I feel well and
strong again."

"Thousands of Britain's bravest and
best have bre•h maimed and mangled
and slaughtered by cruel storms of gas
and shell and liquid tire. beca:Ise away
hack where war weapons :bre forged,
drinking bars were tempting to hear -
less idleness the linen whose failure left
unsent the munitions that would have
silenced the carnage wreaking German
batteries.
In hospitals and jails, or weakened or
inefficient through drink, are thousands
of men who would have been strong and
brave defenders of honor, justice and
freedom but for the selfish greed of
traitors who were ready to debauch and
destroy their country's young manhood
for the sake of the tainted profits of
the poison traffic.
Is there a single loyal citizen who
will not back with all his heart and soul
the strong demand of high purpose and
patriotic appeal that Ontario shall have
at least and at once, Prohibibition dur-
ing the war?"
The above from the Pioneer puts a
horrible truth in graphic language.
Those risking their lives for us have
that risk doubled and their efficiency
lessened by the damnable poisoners
licensed and unlicensed. For we must
not lay all the blame on the shoulders
tof the saloon keeper. A hostess invites
a party of officers toper home and there
plies them with this poison that the
Toronto Board of Health says is worse
than morphine or cocaine. She is either
criminally ignorant or she is a traitor
doing her bit to help tiles Germans.
And notwithstanding all the lessons
of this war and of science, certain men
claiming to be educated gentlemen not
only drink themselves, but they tempt
their guests, regardless of King and
Country. While the great majority
are doing their best to help, such men I
are doing more harm than they probably
know. Let us hope that it is mere lack
of knowledge and not utter indifference
nee
to the outcome of this terrible struggle.
It seems as if nothing but total pro-
hibition will save us from this poisoning
craze.

FARM BRIEFS
Variety is one of the great secrets of
feeding.
Supply water and salt regularly to
ail animals.
Dairy cows are selling at from $50 to
$15u across the line,
Lambs will begin to nibble at feed
when about two weeks old.
The pig which is not gaining rapidly
is losing money for the feeder.
Horns cause hundreds and thousands
of dollars damage to beef and bides
annually,
The underlying reason for the high
price of hides is the enormous demand
for leather.
Preparedness on the farm consists in
having evehything ready before the job
starts.
Horns cause greater stabling space
and are likely at any time to cause
hams to attendants.
The stock must be kept thrifty, else
they are not extracting the most value
from the feeds consumed.
Implements that have been used for
some time should be inspected and the
worn parts adjusted or replaced.
Begin right by starting to keep ac-
curate accounts of your receipts and ex-
penditures from the poultry branch.
Horns on cattle cause them to be
more restless when together, hence
they do not thrive so well as dehorned
ones.
If a tool or implement is worth bor-
rowing, it is worth taking home in just
as good condition as it was when it was
borrowed.
The monthly check from the creamery
provides the mainstay in the household
as against the precarious returns from
yearly crops.
In the absence of sufficient succulent
ration, a good substitute such as molas-
ses, beet pulp or an extra supply of
grain must be provided.
The calf should be housed a consider-
able distance from its dam when wean-
ed, in order to reduce the worry of both
to the minimum.
Cheese and butter are condensed pro-
ducts, and the cost of carriage. in
comparison with their value, is less
than that of any other farm product.
DRINK WATER FOR TONIC AND
YOil WILL. BE HAPPY.
Water taken as a tonic assures a
happy disposition, a clear complexion, a
good appetite, snd a liberal amount of
"pep," in the opinion of Dr, R. 1.
Nichols, physician in the Kansas State
Agricultural College.
"The average person does not drink
enough water," says Dr. Nichols.
"Water may be taken at any time by
the ayerage person without injury to
the system. Old physicans have advised
against drinking water at meal times.
Their theory was incorrect, as no
harm can result, provided one does not
wash down the food.
"Water stimulates the kidneys, the
bowels, and the pores of the skin. A
good digested system is almcst an as-
surance of perfect health. Pure water
is a tonic for this system, and moreover
it is the best tonic a person can take.
"Ice water should not be drunk by the
healthy person, no matter how hot the
day, for Its temperature is too far be-
low that of the body. An athlete should
not drink water just before or after a
contest. Water taken on an empty
stomach cleans out the digestive tract
and prepares these organs better to
digest the food.
"There is such as taking to much of
Natures tonic. An excess of water
overworks the excretory organs just as
does an overdose of prepared tonic.
"The source of tonic water should be
tested severaal times a year. Althongh
water is the best of tonics, it may
carry the worst of germs. Always be
sure drinking water is pure."

POTATO FACTS.
Thoroughly baked white potatoes
take fi est lank among vegetal,'es in
wholesomeness: and nourishment. 've
would all do well to eat of this a aid
dish oftener.
Potatoes that are going to be mashed
should be laid in water for as hour or
more before boiling. They should he
thoroughly drained befog: masihi,.g t..
prevent thein from being soggy.
Better than mashed potatoes are
whipped potatoes, They are made by
whipping with a fork till sight. They
are flavored with butter and A little
milk and whipped again until fluffy.
If the skins of potatoes ,are thorough-
ly scrubbed before baking it is a
good idea to eat the entire potato. The
mineral matter lying close to the skin is
in this way eaten and the skin has the
beneficial effect on the system that all
course matter possesses.
Potatoes that are to he French fried
should be pared, cut into stripes and
soaked three hours before frying.
They should be wiped dry with a clean
dish towel before being entered into hot
fat in a frying basket.
If cooked in very hot butter or drip-
ing fried potatoes are not indigestible
It is only when fried potatoes are
left in the grease long enough to absorb
it that they are less wholesome than
other kinds of potatoes.
Considerable food matter is wasted
when potatoes are pared before cooking.
The most economical method of boiling
is to boil them in the skins and peel
just before serving.
Potatoes boiled with their skins on
in strong brine are delicous.
Persons living near a salt factory can
very easily get this, but the brine may
he made at home,
Cold left over.: mashed potatoes may
be made into an attractive dish by
baking in a buttered dish with a sprink-
ling of grated cheese on top.
At the present, price potatoes are a
less economical form of starch food than
rice or macaroni, either of which may
be substituted for potatoes in the menu
once or twice a week to very good ad-
vantages.

iWILBURN'S ,
HEART AND NERVE PILLS. j
Mrs. S. Walters, Matapedia, Que.,
writes: "I wish to let you know how
much good I have received by taking
your Heart and Nerve Pills. I was
suffering from palpitation of the heart
and shortness of breath. The trouble
with my heart was caused by stomach
trouble,
I had tried all kinds of medicine, both
patent and doctors', but I found none
relieve line like Milburn's Heart and
Nerve Pills. I believe anyone suffering
like I did should use them. I only used
four boxes and I now feel like a different
person."
Milburn's Ileart and Nerve Pills have'
been on the market for the past twenty-
five years and have a most wonderful
reputation as a remedy for all heart and
nerve troubles.

FOR FLETCHER'S

After continuous publication for
nearly twenty years, the Ingersoll
Daily Chronicle has suspended publi-
cation. The publisher will now con-
centrate his energies on the production
of the Weekly Chronicle. The reasons
given for the discontinuance of the
daily issue are serious increases in the
cost of paper, ink, type metals and all
materials used in connection with the
publication of a newspaper, together
with the increased wages he is compelled
to pay.

.� y old time vigor
and , r ode' me str ng and well
This is the way people feel about Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. It arouses
the enthusiasm of those who use it because of its remarkable restorative and
up -building influence.
It lifts them out of the tired, nervous and helpless condition resulting
from exhausted nerves, restores health and vigor and makes life worth living.
Sleeplessness, irritability, nervous headache, indigestion, and all the
warning symptoms of nervous collapse disappear when this great food cure is
used to nourish the nerve cells back to health.
Nervous Collapse
Mr. Victor Higgs, Windham Hill, Cumber-
land Co., N.S., writes :
"My case was a peculiar one. It was one of
those strange nervou diseases which are so dif-
ficult to describe. The doctor said that my
nervous system was all run down. I experi-
enced that uncertainty in walking which indi-
cates the approach of paralysis and/ locomotor
ataxia, and I now realize that I am greatly in-
debted to Dr. Chase's Nerve Food for the great
good it has done me,
"I could not work, read or write, or do any-
thing requiring energy or the concentration of
mind, Before using Dr. Chase's Nerve Food
I could not get an hour's sleep all night. My
brain and nerves seemed to be all unsettled. I
sleep well now, and believe that my nervous sys-
tem has been fully built up by this splendid
medictni's.°
Sciatic Rheumatism
Mr. W. J. Talbot, Edenwold, Sask., writes :
"It is a great pleasure for me to recommend
Dr. Chase's Nerve Food as a cure for sciatic
rheumatism. The pain I have suffered from
sciatica has been well nigh' unbearable. It
would start in the hips and run down the
legs to the toes, gradually getting worse. The
nerves contract until one is practically useless.
My doctor tried many different treatments, but
could only afford relief for a time.
"For about five years I was subject to this
trouble, with severe attacks which would last
about two months. The last attack I had was
shortened to two weeks by the use of Dr. Chase's
Nerve Food and Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills
used in conjunction with it. This treatment was
continued until I was satisfied that the euro
was lasting."
This statement is endorsed by 1VLa'. H. R.
Wooley, J.P.
It rests entirely with you as to whether you benefit by these experiences of
others. If you could talk with persons who have used this treatment and note
their enthusiasm you would not be long in putting its to the-teet•in your own ease.
