A
.NOTICE TO ALL CON-
SUMERS OF COAL.
The Government of Ontario, at the
request of the Dominion Fuel C:ontroll-
er, hereby draws public attention to
the fuel situation in the province.
War conditions have affected the nor-
mal supply of coal, and rendered im-
perative that every consumer practice
the utmost thrift
Energetic measures are being adopt-
s: dto prevent fuel shortage. This can
sins' be attained by the fullest co-oper-
ation and assistance of every coal
coesumer. Co-operation may be effect
ed by the adoption of the following
precautions, viz.:—
•E. Refrain from t t t m usmr, fuel of any
-.kind, including gas, until it becomes
absolutely necessary.
2. Practise rigid economy in the
=:rse of fuel.
.r.. Wherever possible use substi-
'totes for coal to the fullest possible
extent.
-1. Guard constantly against waste
- of fuel when making or cleaning fires,
'and when using gas,
5_ Thoroughly sift all coal ash, and
'Ceara the residue. The result will be
surprising. • One-tenth of the fuel or-
i inaliy fed to the lire has been re-
comred and utilized in this way.
The faithful observation of the fore-
going by all consumers tvat have a
lstarlced effect in conserving the coal
supply, and may .avert a 'serious crisis.
Municipal, religious, educational and
, other aathbrties and bodies. are re-
quested to repeatedly urge and impress
'the foregoing considerations ttpnn the
, ptuhlie.

The High Court of the Ancient Or-
der of Foresters which tvtts•in session
at Brantford last week, with 200 dele-
gates in attendance, effected changes
in the sick benefit payments. The rates
of payment were formerly $4 a week

and ..2
a week for the second year, In
addition 5100 was being paid at the
death of a member, and 50 on the
death of a member's wife.. The actuar-
ies recently found that unless a change
,was effected the funds would be badly
depleted. After consideration a
Change was unanimuush• ;utopied. and
tt will gni into effect all over the Dom-
inion on October t, 1917. After that
date the benefit from the sick fund
will be $4 a week for the first tri weeks

weeks of the year, The payments on
death of member or wile will remain
the stone, however,

I was taken very sick in the middle of the

two days and nights when the doctor was
called in. He prescribed pills and pow-
ders which gave little or no relief. A
friend said that if site were in my place
she would order a bottle of Dr. Fowler's
Extract of Wild Strawberry. It came
about noon, and the next afternoon I was
able to sit up. 1 highly recommend)
'Dr. Fowler's' above anything else, for
