DEAR. ENA AND FOLIce•- MOnday
morning in a nice wee dugout from
tvhirll we can emerge and brat up old
Fritz. A nice day but cloudy and
misty but no rain so far. This has
been a very quiet trip up here, have
had to fight trench foot more than
Fritz. Trench feet are a case of ag-
gravated chilblains, but are serious,
sometimes demanding amputation
and always means that the man is
laid up foe et flongtime. Theyitis
say
preventible; so the use hotoil on the
feet every day and dry socks at every
available opportunity. We send the
wet ones back to be washed. How
ever, it is hard to keep away from
the beastly disease amidst the mud
and cold. My teen did capture ora
lonesome Fritz the other night as he
wandered a little too close 111 a bomb-

Nothing Helped Him Until He Took
"FRUIT-A-TIVES"
ALERT VARNER
Buckingham, Que., May 3rd, 1915.
For seven years, I suffered terribly
from Severe Headaches and Indigestion.
I had belching gas from the stomach,
bitter stuff would come up into my
mouth after eating, while at times I had
nausea and vomiting, and had chronic
Constipation. I wont to several doctors
and wrote to a specialist In Boston but
without benefit. I tried many remedies
but pothing did me good. Finally, a
friend advised "Fruit-a-tives'1. I took
this grand fruit medicine and it made
me well. I am grateful to "Fruit-a-
tives ", and to everyone who has mise-
rablehealtll with Constipation and Indi-
gestion and Bad Stomach, I say take
"Trutt-a-tives ", and you will get well".

Formerly of Brussels
Following is e. copy of a letter writ-

formol Iy of the Standard Bank staff,
Beussele, now at prisoner ill Germany :
DEAR SII!, -At the request of your
brother, I write these few lines. I
was with him at Hannover, also at
camp at Staten and be wished me to
write you when I arrived in Switzer-
land to soy be Was "Jake." Being an
N. 0. 0. they cannot force him to
work but merely to send hire to one of
the exercise camps, where I am given
to understand, they tan about 4 hours
drill each clay. \Viten I left him on
the 7111 (or 17th, I cannot make out
the date as it is indistinct) of last
month, he was still in camp and likely
to remain there for some time. At
any rite 1 hope so, as all he had to do
was to make himself as comfortable as
circumstances would pevlit. As far
as I mu aware he has not received any
ill treatment at any time. Rot the
food in the camps -well a half starved

GOOD RESULTS ON GRAIN AND

JOSEPH HAIST, Crediton East, On-

"Last Spring I bought and used
Homestead Fertilizers on grain and
sugar beets. In both instances I can
safely say I met with very good re-

"I used Homestead Bone Black

that I can grow as good a crop with

IT PAYS TO USE IT
CALVERT BROTHERS, Teller, On-
tario, says :
"We used Homestead Bone Block
Fertilizer on our wheat and meadow
this Fall. We solved a strip across
the field without fertilizer and the
difference between the fertilized and
the unfertilized is so great that we
surely think it pays to sow fertilizer.
We intend using more on the Spring
Crop." -
