Elimination of poisons from the blood depends entirely on the condition of the kidneys, liver and bowels, and by awakening and invigorating these filtering organs, Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills are of inestimable value as a means of purifying the blood and thereby removing the cause of much pain and serious disease. By curing constipation of the bowels and sluggish, torpid con- dition of the liver and kidneys this treatment removes the cause of indigestion, headaches, biliousness, backache; kidney derange- ments and liver complaint. Besides being a cure for the most' complicated disorders of this kind Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills are invaluable as a family regulator to overcome the annoying everyday ills which if neglected are sure to bring serious dis- orders such as appendicitis, rheumatism, and Bright's Disease.

The girl who doesn't paint is not nec- essarily artless. When respect departs love packs its grip and hikes. Work is good for boys but not all boys are good for work. When trouble goes to sleep, toss the alarm clock into the street. Courtship is the wine of life and div- orce is the morning after. Many a bad scrape has been started in a 5 -cent tonsorial parlor. Some people are too busy talking about themselves to talk about others. A. woman with a long distance co& - plexion doesn't show up well at short range, No, Cordelia, it isn't physical culture that makes a woman strong minded. What a satisfactory old world this would be if we could sow thorns and reap roses. In addition to the love of money there are queer ways of getting rid of it. A mother never disturbs the slumbers of her second baby to see if its eyes have changed color. s The political candidate who "alsoran" believes the c ountry is short of asylums for hopeless idiots. The average wife thinks she is her husbands guiding star -but most hus- bands refuse to be guided. Many a girl manages to strangle her actions because she has discovered that weeping makes her nose red. Do not Buffer another day with Itching, Bleed- ing, or Protrud- ing Piles.

ACT. - (Toronto Globe.) Whiskey selling and hotelkeeping are not in their nature either identical or inseparable. In SO far as they have been tied up together, this has been done by a long series of unwise legisla- tive enactments. The motive of hotel - keeping ought to be, if it is not, the entertainment of travellers or other guests who make the hotel their tem- porary home, There is no necessary connectioreebetween providing such a home for a guest and 'selling him in- toxicating liquor as part of the refresh. men t afforded him. It is an extra, not a part of his ordinary table fare. A "tavern" licence is a Ilcence to sell to any person, whether a guest or not, liquor by iretail to be drunk on the premises where it is bought. There may be, and in past times there have been, "saloon" licenses given to people who do not keep hotel, and there are now many "hotels," some of thena of a very high class, of which the manage- ment has not and does not want a license to sell intoxicating drink. Since the electors of Huron have by a large majority declared in favor of the adoption of the Scott Act some of the hotelkeepers in that county have avow- ed their intention to close up their hotels. This is an intimation that they will not keep hotel unless they are allowed to sell liquor, not merely to their guests, but to all who choose to come in and think at their "bars." They do not allege that they ' cannot make hotel - keeping pay in a large and progressive urban centre like Goderich, and there- fore their intimation has all the appear- ance of a threat er a bluff. Under present circumstances the course temperance workers in Huron ought to take seems perfectly clear; to accept the challenge of the dissatisfied hotellceepers, take them at their word, and either buy them' out or establish unlicensed laotels of their own. This has been done successfully in Owen Sound, and in Southampton, between Owen Sound and Goderich, the pro- prietor of the leading hotel has observed the local prohibitory law, and has lost nothing by doing so. The sooner the Huron temperance men have this matter decided the better for both sides, for the general public, and also for the civic community. A Word. of Gratitude. "In justice to humanity I want to tell you that I was a great sufferer from itching piles, and have found Dr. Chase's Ointment the best treatment obtain- able," writes Mrs. Fred Hinz, Brod- hagen, Ont. "It gives instant relief and I can recommend it to any sufferer from this dreadful disease." Parcel Post. The extension of the Parcel Post. sys- tem inaugurated by the Canadian Post- al Department went into operation en the 10th df this month. We publish below a synopsis of the regulations gov- erning the system. It will be wisdom on the part of the readers to bear these regulations in mind, so they will know just what they require to do when send- ing parcels in this way. People in the country having telephones can order goods from the local merchants by phone having them delivered promptly at their local offices by mail fora small expense. The charge for the local service within the twenty mile zone is considerably lower than for the longer distances, The following are the regulations; Articles acceptable at Parcel Post rates include merchandise of all descrip- tions, books, roots, seed, farm products, etc, but not letters'explosives or intoxi- cating liquors. Parcels must be tied up firmly, but not sealed; the postage prepaid and the name and address of sender placed in- side or on the cover. Parcels containing letters will be for- warded at letter rate and short -paid parcels will be forwarded and double the deficient postage collected at des- tination. Limit of weight for February, March and April, six pounds. Had Salt Rheum. Could Scarcely Do Work.

Rowell andethe Liberals in Ontario are giving more and more at- tention to the agricultural situation in the Province and it is evident that they consider it one of the most pressing problems of the day. At Woodstock on February Oth, Mr. Rowell laid special emphasis on the question of rural life. He pointed out the serious situation arising from the decline in rural population in Old Ont- ario, and showed that it affected all branches of life including school and the church. Mr. Rowell referred to the agricul- tural commission appointed in 1881 by the government of Sir Oliver Mowat to investigate rural condition. "That investigation," declared Mr. Rowell, "started a new era in the agri- cultural developmeut of Ontario. Mor e t 'Ian thirty years have passed since then and the time has now come when we should have another stocktakingand a thorough agricultural survey. Let us get at the facts." Mr. Rowell referrea to the Opposi- tion's proposal at the last Session of the Legislature that the government should appoint a thorough, independent and non-partisan commission, and point - el out the Government had refused. The leader of the Opposition promised that the resolution would be re -intro- duced this year. Mr. Rowell took up a number of ques- tions of interest to the ruiral communi- ties, including farm labor, gond roads, extension of the Hydro Electric to the farmers, radical railways, co-operation and agricultural education: Nothing Lilco It for Colds. Mrs. Holland Ferguson, Sheffield, N. B., writes: "Dr. Chase's Syrup of Lin- seed and Turpentine has cured my child- ren and myself of severe colds. We are never without it in the house. There is nothing like it for colds and throat trouble, and it is soothing and pleasant to take, my children would drink a whole bottle if they were per- mitted." Cured by Eating. A writer in the London Daily Mai has found a new cure for indigestion. For a long time he had been starving himself and seeing doctors. One day he felt hungry, walked into a restaur- ant, and ordered a nice cut of bismr a pint of hot water and dry toast. e waiter benevolently ignored the r'..er, and drew attention to such thi,s as mulligatawny and turtle soup, old sherry, veal and ham pie, oyster pat- tey, punch, bath buns, port wine, and rich cakes known as "maids of honor." The invalid consumed them and calmly awaited death. He fell asleep, and awoke cured, with a ravenous appetite for hot buttered toast. We take pleasure in drawing atten- tion to this cure, but the difficulty in these days of H.C.L. is to find the means of purchasing the veal and ham pie and other medicines. A New York physician found it necessary to supply the mediciee at his own expense. In one of the periods of gloom in Wall Str:et a man came into the doctor's office and described some distressing symptoms. After studying him for awhile the physician asked: "Say, what's your occupation?" "Stock broker," "My goodness, why didn't you say so before? Here, take this doller.and go and buy something to eat." Bev. Jernes C. Walker, Methodist pastor at Leamington died suddenly of Bente indigestion. 1 OWE MY LIFE TO "PM! INES" hey Did Did Mu More Good Than Ail Other Treatments Combined Mne. H. S. WILLIAMS PAr,mEnsTolsr, ONT., June 20th, 1913 really believe that owe iny life to "Fruit -a -lives". Ever since child- hood, I have been under the care of physicians and have been paying doctors' bills. I was so sick and worn out that people on the street often asked me if I thought I could get along -without help. The same old stomach trouble and distressing headaches nearly drove me wild. Some time ago I got a box of "Fruit-a•tives" and the first box did me good. My husband was delighted and advised ti continuation of their use. "Fruit-a-tives" completely cured me. Today, I am feeling fine, and a phy- sician meeting are on the street, noticed my improved appearance and asked me the reason. I replied, "1 ant taking Fruit-a-tives". He said, "Well, if "Fruit-a-tives" are making you look so well, go ahead and take them. They are doing more for you than I can". Mrs. H. S. WILLIAMS.

With the coming of the New Year there has appeared in the field of Can- adian journalism a new agricultural magazine which promises to serve a most useful purpose. At no time in the history of the world has the cause of agriculture been accorded the sup- port it now receives from legis- lative bodies, and in no country has the industry been more wisely or gener- ouly helped than in Canada. The Dominion and provincial governments excercise the utmost diligence and con- cern in their efforts to solve the pro- blems that confront the farmer; to this work increased impetus has been given by the coming into force of the Agri- cultural Instruction Act, which serves as a medium for co-operative effort. With a view to bringing together in- formation _concerning the work of the federal and provincial Departnients of Agriculture there bas been commenced the publication of the Agricultural Gaz- ette of Canada, the first number of which has just now made its appearance. While this magazine is edited and published at Ottawa its value is greatly increased by the co-operation of the officials of the Provincial Departments. The January number is evidently pre- paratory for what is to follow, as it is devoted chiefly to accounts of the or- ganization and developement of the several departments of Agriculture in Canada and statements of appropria- tions by which they are enabled to carry on their work. It contains also the full text of the Agricultural Instruction Act, the agreement with each of the provinces and a statement of the ap- propriations under the Act for the present year and the work made pos- sible thereby. In his "Foreword," the Honourable Martin Burrell, Minister of Agriculture, points out that the magazine is not to enter into general circulation, but is to supply the press and thcse engaged in agricultural work with facts and in- formation relating to the educational and scientific side of agriculture. To these it is supplied free. For others a small additional number of copies will be printed from month to month, for which ten centS per copy or one dollar per year will be charged. The magazine, which is clothed in a dignified cover, presents a very attract- ve appearance, being printed on high class, coated paper, which does full credit to the photo engravings of the Dominion and Provincial Ministers of Agriculture that appear in the first number, fiEST ANO HEALTH TO MO AND CIRO, MRS, WilISLONV'S 5OOT/riN0 SYRVP ItRs been .,std for over SIXTY YEARS by MILLIONS of MOTHERS for their CHILDREN WHILE TEETHING, with PERFECT SUCCESS.
