Other beneficial results includ- ed: fewer complications during pregnancy, reduction in the pre- valence of anaemia among_ expect- Ii'nt mothers, shorter duration of labor, increased ability on the part of mothers to nurse their own children; reduction in illnesses among the babies. - BIG PINGS BEN THE BELL Noy" IR M��i,ifF ,M errs rcie e 4 THAT'S MY CHEW vet Will Demonstrate Canadian Dishes How to use up Canada's un - exportable surplus will be the theme of the free cooking school held twice daily in the Electrical Building at the Canadian National Exhibition this year.
