Brusselite :-Rev. Dr. Ross, of'Torouto,
a native of Wellington County and for
many years a Presbyterian minister in
Brussels, Out., delivered a very forcible
address upon 'Temperance, in Knox
Church, Palmerston, Sunday night.
While pleased to see the noble stand
that Russia has taken upon this question
he regretted that Britain had not yet
measured up to expectations. Canada's
Minister of Militia was commended for
abolishing liquor in the Valcartier camp,
but British authorities at Salisbury cast
an everlasting disgrace apou themselves
in debauching so many of our men in

Shamrock, Mo,- "I feel it my duty
to tell the public the condition of my
health before using
your medicine. I had
falling, inflamma-
tion and congestion,
female weakness,
pains in both sides,
backaches and bear-
ing down pains, was
short of memory,
nervous, impatient,
passed sleepless
nights, and had
neither strength nor
energy. There was always a fear and
dread in my mind, I had cold, nervous,
weak spells, hot flashes over my body.
I had a place in my right side that was
so sore that I could hardly bear the
weight of my clothes. I tried medicines
and doctors, but they did me little good,
and I never expected to get out again.
I got Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound and. Blood Purifier, and 1cer-
tainly would have been in grave or in an
asylum if your medicines had not saved
Inc. But now I can work all day, sleep
well at night, eat anything I want, have
no hot flashes or weak, nervous spells.
All pains, aches, fears and dreads are
gone, my house, children and husband
are no longer neglected, as I am almost
entirely free of the bad symptoms I had
hefore taking your remedies, and all is
pleasure and happiness in my home." -

while on duty and whose tablet is in-

"I really believe that I owe my life
to "Pruit-a-lives", Ever since child-
hood, I have been under the care of
physicians and have been paying
doctor's bills. I was so sick and worn
out that people on the street often
asked me if I thought I could get
along without belp. The same old
Stomach Trouble and distressing
Headaches nearly drove me wild.
Sometime ago, 1 got a box of "Fruit-
0-tives" and the first box did me good.
My husband was delighted and advi-
sed a continuation of their use,
Today, I am feeling fine, and a
physician meeting me on the street,
not ced my improved appearance and
asked the reason. I replied, "I am
takingFruit-a-lives". He said, "Well,
if 1: ruin -s -Byes are making you look so
well, go ahead and take them. They
