No.fists .. Noe SINCE the announcement in the Legislature last spring that a Refer- endum on the Ontario Temperance Act would be taken this fall, the different temperance organizations of the province of Ontario have met together to consider what attitude they should take. ' The result has been the formation of the Ontario Referendum Committee, which comprises representatives -from the organized temperance forces of the province and the temperance sentiment of the province outside of these organizations. The new Committee will conduct the Campaign. We are asking the voters of Ontario to vote "No" to all questions sub- mitted on the ballot. a The Referendum Ballot AND HOW TO VOTE Yes No Are you in favor of the repeal of THE ONTARIO TEMPERANCE ACT?. 2, Are you in favor of the sale of light beer containing not more than two and fifty-one one hundredths per cent. alcohol weight measure through Government agencies and amendments to THE ONTARIO TEMPERANCE ACT•to permit such sale? ' , X 3. Are you in favor of the sale of light beer containing not more than two and fifty-one one hundredths per cent. alcohol weight measure in standard hotels in Local municipalities that by a majority vote favor such sane, and amendments to THE ONTARIO TEMPERANCE ACT to permit such sale? 4. Are you in favor of the sale of spirituous and malt liquors through Government agencies and amendments to THE ONTARIO TEM- PERANCE ACT to permit such sale? By the Ontario Temperance Act, sale and distribution of alcoholic liquors for beverage purposes within therovince were prohibited. For practically three years the province has experienced the good effects of this law. Its repeal would be a calamity. Any of the amendments would spoil it. For the Temperance forces to win they must secure four "No".majorities. That is, a majority for No on EVER'' question. The Temperance forces will be defeated if there is a majority for "Yes" on any of the - questions. You must mark an X after each of the four ques- tions, or your ballot is counted as spoiled. A century of temperance progress in this province is at stake in the coming Referendum, The Ontario Referendum Committee earnestly and respectfully ask you to mark your X in the No column after each and every graestion, as indicated in the sample ballot re- produced herewith. • riio F eferencluarn m ztte Ori►#� �' �, �' , • �tiil l M'ACDONALD D, A.

So During the hot weather the bowels seem to be more susceptible to disease than at any other time of the year. The holiday season is on; you go travelling and change your diet and drinking water; catch cold at every change its the weather; eat unripe fruit, etc., which causes the bowels to become loosened up. To get relief from these conditions, you must take something to relieve those awful cramps in the stomach; those awful pains in the bowels; in fact something that will in a natural and eeffective way stop the fluxes of the j owele as quickly as possible, and at the same time not leave them in a constipated condition, Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Straw- berry is exactly the remedy you need, and by using it you are not taking any chances to endanger your health as it has been on the market for the past 74 years, and we have yet to hear of one instance where, it has not 'done evthing avis elairn for it, ,.
