SOURED ON THE
WORLD?—THAT’S LIVER .
Wake up your Liver Bile
—No Calomel necessary
Many people who feel sour, sluggish and
generally wretched make the mistake of taking
salts, oil, mineral water, laxative candy or
chewing gum, or roughage which only move
the bowels and ignore the liver.
What you need is to wake up your liver
bile. Start your liver pouring the daily two
pounds of liquid bile into your bowels. Get
your stomach and intestines working as they
should, once more.
Carter’s Little Liver Pills will soon fix you
up. Purely vegetable. Safe. Sure. Quick.
Ask for them by name. Refuse substitutes.

Summer Complaint Plays
Havoc With the Bowels
Tew people escape an attack of summer complaint.
It may be slight or it may be severe, but both the young
and the old are liable to it during the summer months.
You cannot tell when it seizes you how it is going to
end. Let it run for a day or two and see how weak and
prostrate it will leave you.
On the first sign of an attack of any looseness of the
bowels take a few doses of Dr. Fowler’s Extract of Wild
Strawberry and see how quickly it will give relief.

is the seventh musky to be caught

son and was caught on Friday,
July 21st. so fisherman’s luck
seems to be a cojnplication of
opinion. The scene took place
late in the afternoon right in front
of the outlying camp dock in full

and started fires in order to see
the finish, forgetting dinner and
later celebrating the latest entry

We’re glad that Canada did her borrowing in London. Just
the same we note that we incurred an obligation that must be met
some day.

Cautious Sandy is quite sure that a whole lot of lassies and
laddie®, who are kicking up all those shindies at the pleasure re
sorts would be better employed pulling weeds .out of corn patches.

And isn't it wonderful that a whole lot of folks who can
scarcely drag one foot after the other about the office or in the
kitchen can dance till one o’clock at a pleasure resort5 or chase a
golf ball for miles and show no weariness.
It’s just fine, that the Canadian beaver, when he had tO‘ borrow
money, went to the daddy of the British family and floated with
out a. wink the big loan of something like ?60',00'0,000. When we
wish to borrow that sum we’ll know where to go.
We noticed that several groups of cows assembled in pasture fields
last Thursday afternoon. We suspect that they were holding, after
their mute but really eloquent fashion, a. thanksgiving service for
the rain and the cooler weather. Haw many humans did likewise?

This word of continually shortening of relief lists and this
other news of increasingly shorter lists of the unemployed is all to
the good. /Times are surely mending. Better still, we are assur
ed that the majority of those who were helped by the kindly neigh
borly offices of their fellow citizens were men and women who
were willing to work. Human nature is not so1 very bad,safter all.
Fortunately, we’re not all bad at the same time.

SURPRISED
Farmers, generally speaking, are surprised and delighted with
jjthe way their grain is threshing this year. We were talking with
a feed grinder this week and learned from him that the grain so
far coming under his care has been of choice quality. While the
farmers are not harvesting as many loads to the field as they desire
they find that the number of bushels to the load is most gratifying.
For this rjeason the harvest of 1933 bid® fair to compare with other
years. Should we have a few more copious rains the corn crop will
prove satisfactory, while the necessary potato will yield splendidly.

HOW IT WORKS
Ten days ago wei stood in a. potato field with a young farmer
who with his young wife has just started on his own account. He
has but a small holding, but all the earnings -of -this young couple
a,re in that farm. A real money obligation is to be met this fall
which, if negotiated, means that this young couple will be well
on the way to- being out of serious indebtedness. That field is
planted to; certified seed. The soil is in the best of tilth. Spraying
has been done so successfully that there is no evidence whatsoever
of 'bug or blight. Cultivation has been carried on >so that not a
weed is in sight. On that Monday the potato stalks were about
covering the ground so* that further cultivation by horse power is
out of the question. Examination proved that several of the po
tatoes, in different portions of the patch, were about the size of a
robin’s egg.
Said this young farmer. “Those potatoes will go forwards or
backwards. If it does not rain, I’ll have scarcely a quarter crop ana
I'll lose my wonk. If we get a real .rain, I’ll be able, to meet my
obligations and have a little to the good. If we get no rain, I\ll
have to sell out this fall.”
Tragedy lurks nearer many farms and places1 of business than most
of Us imagine. A timely rain or the punctual payment of a bill so
/often means the difference between heartbreak and success.
JUST LIKE HIM
When John Bull discovered that the other nations of the worla
could not work with him at the big Economic Conference in Lon
don he quietly turned to the other nations of the British Common
wealth of nations and said something like this: “We have quite a
job in the running of our Empire business. Suppose we get into a
quiet corner and arrange things among ourselves.” As usual John
had no band playing while he was conferring. Even the busy
newspaper reporters were not aware of what was going on. Just
what was done at this quiet meeting of representatives of the Em
pire no one1 seems to know. Information has not been given out.
But this one thing is pretty certain. As a result of their exchange
of views the folk in the Empire will be able to trade with each
other ion increasingly satisfactory terms.
Further, when John Bull speaks of the Canadian dollar he’ll
interpret that word by saying to himself that it means very closely
so many shillings and pence. When Jack Canuck learns that his
steer or his lumber has sold for so many pound he’U be able to' say
that he’U receive so many dollars and cents. And .so on through
out the Empire. That much we see as a condition of affairs draw
ing a little nearer every day as one of the results' of the heart to
haart talk of John Bull’s big family. When healthy-minded folk
understand each other they work together and- prosper. The in
direct benefits of -the Conference will prove immeasurably greater
than the contemplated benefits.
