Luke G : 25.
Not spiritually (although even the
penalty of remorse may follow
your neglect of this national warn-
ing) but ye shall hunger in the
trying physical sense in which
hunger now grips the peoples of
Europe.
We know "it is difficult to talk to
the belly which hathno ears," and
it is just as difficult to persuade a
person who has a full dinner be-
fore him' to -day that he may want '
for food next month.
But you may as well let this fact
sink into your mind —the last
people that Canada and the United
States will allow to stiffer for
want of food are our fighting
men, and if a sufficient exportable
surplus of food cannot be raised
and saved by voluntary. efforts, then
very drastic rationing measures
will be enforced.
It may astonish you to learn that in
1917 Ontario did not grow enough
wheat for its own needs. Conse-
quently every Ontario farmer
whose land is suitable, has been
urged to sow 5 acres more spring
wheat this year so that Ontario's
demand for wheat shall not be met
at the expense of that portion of
th-e Western crop that should, more
rightfully be shipped overseas.
For this same reason every house-.
holder who has a garden or a piece
of vacant land is being urged to
grow vegetables, because the more
vegetables that are grown and
eaten in Ontario, the less wheat and
meat there will be consumed, and
that being so, the Ontario wheat
crop should then be sufficient, to
feed our own, people, and; leave.
more Western wheat and other
foods available for export.
If you have not, yet decided to
plant a vegetable garden make up
your mind to do sq now. „rot! will
not regret it. There is still totsof
time. Potatoes and beansmay be
planted up to June lst and these
are the best substitutes for wheat
and meat.
For good, practical advice upon how to lay out and cultivate a Vegetable
Garden, write for a free copy of the booklet entitled: "A Vegetable Gar-
den for Every Home." This has been prepared by the Ontario Depart-
ment of Agriculture for the guidance of citizens who will respond to
this call for increased production.

's HE necessity of using medi-
cine to regulate the action
of the liver, 'kidneys and.
bowels is iargely due- to the
changecl conditions of life slur-
ing recent years:
Our fathers .lived a life of acti-
vity in the 'open air. If 'they ate
heartily they had sufficient exer-
cise to keep the liver and bowels
active and to thereby remove the
poisonous waste fronllthe body.
To -day we get too little exercise
and too little fresh air. The food we
eat is more cm:aentrated and artifi-
cial. The result is much discomfort
• and the development of serious dis-
ease from constipation of the bowels
and torpid condition of the liver.

their combined action on the liver,
kidneys and bowels. One pill as dose
at bedtinie as often as is necessary to
keep the bowels in healthful action,
will also ensure the regularity of the
liver and kidneys and thereby 'keep
the blood pure and the system free
from the accumulating poisons which
cause disease and suffering.
