I could not walk straight because of the pain in mybaek and I had pains in my stom- ach. I went to a doctor and he said I must go under an operation, but I. did not go. 1 read in the paper about Lyd a E. Pinkl am's Vegetable Com- pound and told my unhand about it. I said `I know nothis g will help me but 1 will try this.' 1 found myself improv= ing from the very first bottle, and in two weeks time I was able to sit clown and eat a hearty breakfast with my hus- band,which I had not done for two years. 1 am now in the best of health and did not have the operation." —Mrs. JOHN A.

NOT ILLEGAL IN C. T. A. COUNTIES Judge Masten Says Guests May Have Liquor in Hotel Rooms. Toronto, Nov. 15, — Those dis- tricts in Ontario where the Canada Temperance Act is in effect are not sub ject to the much more stringent regu- lations of the Ontario Temperance Act. In consequence guests at a standard hotel may have in their rooms or in their possession liquor intended for their own consumption, and may, with- out fear of penalty, give liquor to an- other person. So long as they do not tratlick in alcoholic beverages they do not break the law. Mr. Justice Masten in a decision which he handed down today at Os- goode Hall, made a ruling to this ef- fect.

His home had given hien much, Just as it had given his broth- ers much; but his labors head been his own, and McGill had known him as the best mathematician of his time. Those who, like 'myself, came' to know him only when his reputa- tion was already made, recognized his power of leadership, lois gift of friendship, his zest In life, and his enjoyment of its 'good things, leisure, sunshine, pictures, books. When war broke out Major Nors- worthy Was under no illusions as to whman, but huthe ah of dutyatit plaient, ;ie jeoinedfond up at once and went overseas as secosnd in cont- snntd of the 13th Battalion. It was his fortune, his good fortune, I know he would have himself said, to be in the most critical spot on one of the most critical days that ever dawned for the British Empire, the day which from the viewpoint of the his- tory of the tsar saved the road to Calais, the day which from the view- point of wider history made Canada feel for the first time that her p upil hood was past and that she had a right to claim her place in the can- tly of nations. The story uf April 22, 1of5, the part of the Canadians 111 the second battle of Ypres has been often told, but those who still look for - word to the struggle may know what can be clone by young troops provided they have the right temper In them and are led by officers in whom they have full trust, When the gas attack was launched late on the afternoon no one knew what it was.
