The new society is a necessary wheel in the Book Vehicle in How - ick and a supplementary unit to the four village libraries of Wroxeter, Gorrie, Belmore and Fordwich. Its main purpose is the pooling of finances for the purpose of new books and its officers for the current year are drawn from the four village boards as follows: Dr. C. C. Ramage, Chairman; H. V. Holmes, Sec'y-Treas.; J. R. Wendt, J. A. Bryans, Mrs. J. J. Allen, Fred Doubledee, Mrs. E. Zinn and Mrs. Jos. Wade.

ARM IN SLING WITH NEURITIS A "token of gratification" this wo- man says she is giving when she writes of her relief from neuritis:— "For twelve months I have had neuritis in my arm, and up till the last two weeks have had to carry it in a sling, Sines then I have aban- doned my sling, am able to sleep un- disturbed, and can perform household. duties that previously I would not have done. These benefits I have re- ceived from Kruschen Salts. This has all happened in two weeks, and I am optimistic enough to think that in an- other fortnight I shall have, good-bye to neuritis once and for all. Call' this a testimonial if you choose —to me it is a token of gratification." —(Mrs.), N. E. L, Neuritis is a result of impurities in, the blood. And it is impure blood, circulating all over the system and setting up inflammation in the tissues that causes those excruciating pains. Kruschen Salts can be safely trusted to set the matter right. Because Kru- schen contains just what Nature needs:. to persuade your internal organs back into a healthy, normal. condition. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. 5, F. Schutt. The bride who was given in marriage by her father,. looked lovely in a gown of white 'ros- ette crepe with graceful veil of silk net, caught with wreath of orange blossoms. Her slippers were of bro- caded satin. She carried a bouquet of American Beauty roses, lily of the valley and maidenhair fern.

The bridegroom was at- tended by John Bach of Logan, and the wedding music was played by Lorne Miller. Following the ceremony, the wed- ding breakfast was served at the home of the bride's parents, attractively de- corated with pink and white streamers and a profusion of spring flowers.

On their return they are making their home in Belmore. This community ex- tend congratulations to the happy couple. Mary—You mustn't tell a lie. Jane—Why not? Mary—Because it's like smoking; it .. isn't right to do until you are grown up. ALL -BRAN MADE HIM REGULAR AS CLOCK Delicious Cereal.

But now T don't have to take pills. "I take ALz-BRAN every morn- big, orning, and am as regular as the clock. It has done me a lot of good." --- Stephen Higgins (address fur- nished upon request).
