Zurich Herald, 1925-10-22, Page 3(WOMEN'S HANDICAPS Headaches and Backaches Often Make Life Miserable, A woman's• health handicaps heir al- most always, She has pains and dis- abilities which do not afflict men. Na- ture dues not give her a fair chance. Her blood is more often :thin Anil poor than, a Man's', and she often. neglects the first beginnings of .i11 -health. i! any women who seemed destined to a life of frequent suffering have been freed tn'tirely frotn their suffering through he wpnderful blood -making .dualities of Dr,' Williams' Pink Pills. Many a woman toils all <lay with a 'pain in her back and sede, a burning headache; and a sense of haying no spine left, What a pity women will not listen to their friends whoa/ Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have saved from their mis- ery.- Whenever a woman suffers they will help her --in youth, middle -age and 'afterlife. Mrs. John Mitchell, of Middleville, Ont., gives her experience for the benefit of other women suffer- ers. She says:—"Some years ago I was so badly aim dawn I could hardly walk around the house. 1 tried to. do a few chores but was able to do very little. My boys and husband had to do the rest. If I smarted up stairs I had to go very. slow or I would fall, and I was just played out when I get at the top of the stairs. My head ached terribly, and my heart would beat`violentiy. In this•'d'epiorable con- dition I began taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. When I had finished six boxes I felt muck better. Then I got a further supply, and by the time I had taken these I could walk any- where without being exhausted, the headaches had disappeared and I am now perfectly well. Any woman who is run down should not hesitate to be- gin Dr. Williams' Pink Pills at once, as I am sure from my own experience they will build her up." You can get these Pills from any medicine dealer or by snail at 50 cts. a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont, Little Feet.

English dealer in antiques, Mr. Timm-. as Hoban, `who has written a• book about the interesting experienees of his life, tells, one stQvy that illustrates the kind of incident we mean, The most eerie occurrence that ever happened to me, he writes, fell out in this fashion, I was in the habit of buying small brio-acbrac from an old retired schoolmaster who had a fairly goad knowledge of an'tigaes. Ile used to bring me Battersea :boxes, little Chelsea scent bottles—very rare these days, --Vold seals, and so fourth. One day he brought in a Chinese god about 'nine inches high. It was beautifully Modeled in Silver, and the base was ragged, as if it had been torn Off a stand of some kind. The silver was as thin as paper, and the interior of the figure was filled with a sort of bitu- men, The old gentleman said that it had been looted.from Pekin at the time of the Boxer note. Be this as it "maty, i bought the figure for £4. This, I remember, was on a 'Thursday. I placed the figure' on a cabinet. That day not a single client came to see me; the next day, F'ri'day, it was the same, not single inquiry. Of course, one does not 'expect to sell antiques every hour, but 'as a rule sone one.. comes in everyday to make some in- quiry or to have a look around. Satur- day in those days was a fairly busy morning; on. this particular Saturday not a soul came in. The loneliness began to get upon tpry nerves. I was walking about the shop,. pondering on this sudden and unac- countable cessation of business when my eyes alighted on the silver god. I an not superstitious, but all of -a sud- den the idea came to me that the Chinese god was bringing me bad luck. , Just about the tluncheon hour, the old schoolmaster came in with a tor- toise -shell and silver picquet snuffbox, for which he wanted £2. I told him I would take she box if he would take back the god. I said I was willing to lose a pound on it. He assented, say- ing he knew- a collector who would buy the god. On the following Monday morning a dealer who also had dealing with the old schoolmaster cane in and said, "Rave you heard the news? Poor old Powell (the name of the schoolmas- ter) was found dead in bed on Sun- day night." It gave me a shock, and I thought of the silver god. It was no doubt only a strange coincidence, but the death of the oid'sehoolmaster haunted me for days. .Sentence Sermons.

Superintendent. Montreal Fur 'Auction. Over one and a half million dollars Was realized at the mid -summer ane tion sale of Canadian furs held, in Montreal, at which were "present sev- eral buyers representing all the more important fur houses of Canada, the United States, Great.Britain am' the Continent. Tliis was the seventeenth fur auction held in Montreal and slum: its inception over twenty million dol - leas worth of pelts have been sold, The holding of these sales in Mont- real is the outcome of a.persistent de - mead by those interested in• the Cana- dian fur industry to market their own pelts. For many years it had been the custom to despatch the firkins; with the exception of a small euan'tity taken up by retailer dealers in the Dominion, to. markets in London, New York, St. Louis and other fur centres. This meant that the Canadiatp1ndustry was at a disadvantage in competing with other fur sources, having no control over the felling price of it's• pelts. In' order to offset this drawback to the development of the fur industry in Canada, an organization was estab- lished in Montreal in 1920 to dispose of domestic and foreign' furs by auc- tion. Since then the results attained by this organization have been gratifying and have more than justified its es- tablishment. The volume of raw furs offered is carefully checked so as to keep the Defoe at a level which will give a reasonable return to the pro- ducer, and this one item alone has been of great benefit in stabilizing the industry. Controlling, in this way a consederab;e quantity of the very finest of pelts, the foreign buyer ,must come to Montreal, and as a result that after only four and a half years* operation, this organization now has a deckled influence on the trade ; in regulating the supply and price of bet- ter class raw furs. In this connection it it interesting to note the progress of the 'fur industry of Canada in recent years, bath in pro- duction and export. For 1920-21 the total production in the Dominion was valued at $10,151,594, for 1922-23 at $18,761,667. Prior to 1914 Great Bri- tain was Canada's most important, cus- tomer for raw furs, but -.Ince the war the majority of exports have gone to the United Staten, that market ac- counting for well afar -half of the total in the past five years.
