As a vermicide an excellent prepar- ation is Mother Grayss' Worm Ex- terminator, It has saved the lives of countless children. A request for Co .operation Made by the Departtnent of Public Highways The highways of the Province represent an invest- ment within the last 10 years of over $160,000,000.. It is the people who have paid for these roads. It is the people's money which will be used to maintain them. To conserve this .public property, The Highways Act provides against overloading of vehidles at this season of the year, and driving at exbessive speeds. To secure voluntary co-operation of users of the roads, the Highways Department proposes to place before the people, through the columns of the press, the reasons why regulation of the use of the road is in the interest of the motorist and the public generally. The law provides that during March and April trucks (outside cities and towns) "shall not be loaded in excess of one-half the carrying capacity of such vehicle as registered with the Department, without obtaining a permit as provided in Section 31." Compliance with the law is urged on all drivers and owners, but 'while co-operation is requested in the public interest,' notice is given here that infractions of the law will be dealt with vigourously according to the law. ,' The Hon.

Government of The Argentine Nation External Sinking Fund 6% Gold Boads of 1924, Due December lst, 1958. Principal and interest payable in gold in Nen, York. We recommend these bonds for the following reasons :— Argentine credit ranks higher than any other South American country and she leads all such countries in volume of foreign trade. Argentine has gold on hand as a reserve against currency in circulation of 75% -one of the highest in the world. Canada's position in this respect is 46,05%. Population is 9,500,000, Average wealth per person -$1,533. Total average Government debt per person—$103. Total debt represents only some 8% 'of the national wealth. Canada's aver- age Government debt per person is about $350. United States about $200. Great Britain about $800. Argentine credit in Europe ranks very high.: Before the war Argentine Government Bonds were sold in London and F;urope at coupon rates from 3%opo to 5%. These' bonds are rated very high by the best authorities. They are also listed on the New York Stock exchange, which assures the holder of a ready market for same at all times, PRICE: at the market, yielding about 6.25% Tele¢hoore or Telegraph your orders at our expense..
