(photos/Kaitie Jinks) r Capsule Comments by Ernie Miatello Some medications can cause disturbances in taste. Some sleeping pills, blood pressure medication can cause a metallic, sweet or salty taste in the mouth. Other medications can cause dry mouth, which also has an effect on taste. We'II try to tell you if your medication might be the cause. How old is Dr. Scholl? It was away back in 1904 that he patented his special arch support and a few years later he introduced his famous corn, callus and bunion pads to help relieve sore feet. The rest, as they say, is history. When giving a child some bad -tasting medication, try giving a bit of ice cream first. The cold numbs the taste buds and the bad taste is not as noticeable. The world of vitamin products can be confusing. Labels often contain words like Forte, Ultra, High Potency, Plus, Max and Mega. Sometimes you may get too much of some vitamins and minerals This not necessarily a good thing. Too much Vitamin A zinc iron can be detrimental to good health. Huron Apothecary Ltd.

FT. {115.6 8I1, JENISH HOUSE DESIGN LIMITED ENTRY BASEMENT �I BASEMENT ENTRY CRAFTSMAN Plan No. 2-3-726 This two-storey, three-bedroom family home features a ground -floor entrance, but it's the second floor that contains most of the living area. Downstairs, there's space for a den, three-piece bath and rec room, space that one day might serve as an in- law suite or studio. Upstairs, the great room, dining area and kitchen flow into one another. The kitchen is adjacent to the dining area, so serving meals is a matter of just a few steps. The U-shaped counter configuration promises efficiency, while the raised eating bar provides a spot for snacks and casual meals. A pantry offers extra storage. The great room's fireplace, flanked by built-in entertainment units, will make this a favourite gathering place for family and guests on cooler days and evenings. French doors provide access to a sundeck that overlooks the front garden, perfect for al fresco dining and warm -weather relaxation. The master suite boasts a spacious walk-in closet, as well as an ensuite with a shower. The second and third bedrooms share a bathroom with a tub and a linen cupboard. At the back of the home is a small covered porch that overlooks the back garden. The laundry room is downstairs, along with a den that overlooks a small veranda. The den would make an ideal home office, since business visitors would not have to intrude in the rest of the house. A coat closet is positioned at the back of the foyer. A double garage completes the ground -floor plan. Exterior finishes include decorative shingles and bracing in the front gable, as well as board -and -batten siding and painted trim. This home measures 38 feet wide and 48 feet deep, for a total of 1,245 square feet. Plans for design 2-3-726 are available for $476 (set of 5), $542 (set of 8) and $584 for a super set of 10.
