Rich Color And Soft Skin. May be imitated but beauty is more than skin deep,—it is hidden in the blood. Eliminate the poisonous pro- ducts of indigestion by Ferrozono and complexion rapidly improves. In- crease the red coloring matter in the blood, give it more nutrition and more red cells, do this and cosmetics won't be needed. Give up cosmetics, they wither too quickly. Use Ferrozone and have your complexion firmly establish- ed, There isn't a case of blotched skin, poor complexion or lack of color that can't be quickly remedied by Ferrozone. Try it.

The catarrhal germ excites inflam- mation, offensive secretions are thrown. off and pass into the circulation, con- taminating the river of life and thus wreck the whole body. Every catarrh victim should use fragrant healing Catarrhozone, the surest curd for every type of catarrh yet discovered. Ca• tarrhozone can't fail to cure because its vapor kills the germs and removes the cause of the trouble. Than it soothes and heals, stops the cough and relieves the stuffed up condition of the nose and throat. Ten thousand have been cured by Catarrhozone which is guaranteed, Use only Catarrhozone, Complete out- fit $1,.00i trial size 25o. FROM SOUTH AFRICA. Potchesfstroonl, S. A„ Feb. 13. Editor Wingham Advance, DEArt SIR,—As I promised some time ago to give you a fuller descrip- tion of this part of South Africa and receiving your issue of Dec, 24 lately with the communication in it from one who signs himself "One who was there," I hasten to do as I promised. "One who was there" gave no proofs of what I said to be untrue, only that the Boers are leaving here for Old Mexico, I can tell him more than that—they are going anywhere and everywhere they can, to get away from S. A., but it is not on account of the climate or country they are leav- ing ; it is because they will not live under the British flag. Boers did not leave here before the war. I also think I am in a better position to judge of the lit"erences between Can- ada and S. A, than "One who was there" as I have travelled over the North American continent and know whereof I speak. I will first give yon a description of the Transvaal, At a general glance you would call it very rough, but it is not so bad as it seems. It is composed of ranges of foothills running as a role east and west with beautiful valleys between, There is good pasturage on the hills for the most part, and one peculiarity of this country is that the rivers cut across the hills instead of running parallel to them, as they do in other countries, In fact this coun- try is made up of peculiarities which make it one of the most wonderful countries on eaith. Our wet season is in the summer, instead of the win- ter as in other countries. Even Cape Colony has its wet season in the win- ter, thereby making it impossible for them to grow two crops in one year, while we can grow 2 and 8 crops off the same piece of ground in 12 months. For instance, we can grow a crop of potatoes, then a crop of tobacco, and lastly a crop of wheat, oats, barley or any other grain, as grain is only grown in our winter months and has to be irrigated, for as I said before the win- ter is our dry season. Another thing that makes this the most wonderful country is—that where 1 live, every- thing under the sun grows and yields from 50 to 100 fold. We have growing here fitlit of all kinds, including oranges, letnons, bananas and a great many varieties that are never seen in Canada. "One who was there" will please describe then the next time he writes. Vegetables of all kinds grow in the summer, the hardiest of them such as onions, cabbage, etc., grow equally well in the winter. Alealies (they are the sante as our corn) and what they call Kaffir corn are grown in the summer, while grain of all kinds is grown in the winter and is always a sure crop. Now to say some- thing about the climate of this dis- trict—it is as healthy as any country • in the world ; you never hear of con* sunption, asthma and kindred diseas- es, The only thing now you do hear of (and that is in towns) is enteric fever, and is caused by dirt being al- lowed to accumulate. The.towns here have open sewers on each aide of the street, and all the filth passes down thein and if this state of affairs exist( d in any other town or city in the world, instead of the most healthy, there would not be a living soul left in 3 months for plague. Now the heat in summer is not excessive, nor have I ever found it as hot here as I have in Canada. My father, who is near 80 years of age, is out during the greater part of the day tied eilloys excellent health arid never tog plains of the heat but often says— "I hal e often suffered mare With the heat In Canada than I do here," Of course there are hotter and colder places in S. A. than here. No matter what the day is like, we have nice cool nights and you. can rise in the morning and feel refreshed atter a good night's sleep. Neither aro the winters cold. I havo no stove or fire in my house. I dor not need it for heating on account of cold, Cattle and horses do well running oat in winter. Last winter I bunt a dant across a river, costing the $4,600, and my animals got noth- ing only what they picked up, and they were fat in the spring. This Is the finest climate In the world, I say again, and you only have to take the British army report, read before the d' i( of the WOrid in 1 dicot Association tict London, England, to corroborate what I say. Since coming on the#area `thi ADVANCE, &NCE, r ers When the nerves are weak everything goes wrong. You _ are tired all the time, easily discouraged, nervous, and. irritable. Your cheeks are Sarsaparilla pale and your blood is thin. Your doctor says you are - . threatened with a nervous breakdown.

Weak Nerves teen the bowels regular with App9'r's )I11s, Just one p111 each night. has been only one death in this dis- trict, and that was caused by eating canned corn beef. No sickness have I heard of at all. We have not many snakes ; I have only seen 3 or 4 since I have been on the farm. You would die if they bit you but they won't bother you if you don't bother them. I could go on indefinitely, speaking of the wonders of South Africa, which would no doubt be news to "One who was there," but I do not want to occu- py all your space, so will now conclude and will write again some future time, I am not an emigration agent and do not care whether anybody comes from Canada or not. One thing I do and can say—you can make $5 00 here easier and quicker than you can make 5 cents in Canada, and you are living where it is not too hot nor too cold, but no person without money need come here. There are farmers here who have more money than all Wing - ham. One sold a farm to the Govern- ment a short time ago, for $250,000. So you see land is valuable also. If this was not such a rich country, do you think England would have gone to war and spent hundreds of millions of dollars and thousands of lives. I think not. Of course there is a de- pression now but it will soon be over. W. H. WELI.s. Nothing Loosens Up A Cold On the chest and relieves that tight feeling and hard cough like Nerviline writes E. P. Renshall of Sntton. "I Dever used any other remedy but Ner- viline and find it serves as a general household liniment best of all. Child- ren's colds, inflammatory pains aro quickly cured by Nerviline. and its action on colds, cough and sore throat is unequalled by anything I ever used. Nerviline is both powerful, pleasant and reliable." Every mother should use Nerviline.
