10ST 20 LBS. FAT Without Alteringpiet TH® HURON C10UNTY HOME (By Harry Hoiford) To . reduce weight without any .tattention to diet is rather mor* than .anyone should expert. That the Kruschen method should have suc ceeded in this case, is a great tribute <to its effectiveness. “ Whexi I started taking Kruschen lor reducing weight, I weighed 170 lbs. ’That was seven months, ago,- X ■ decided I was too heavy, and nows thanks to the half teasjxxuiful of TCrusehen every morning, I tip the .-^Beale at ]501bs.

The Home is a large county building For the crippled and the poor; And also for the aged ones, Who may have no money ip store. Men and women are in the Home, Different natured*folks are here; Some are gifted with common-sense, 'Some are not so, I fear, We have a very good manager, He attends to ill things well; His wife is a capable matron. Courteous and reasonable, I will tell. The helpless are looked after, They have evejy chapce to rest; All are given the kind of care, In a way that is thought 'best. The doctor calls here every week, To help those who are ill; To some, he will give medicine, Tp others salve or pills. Those who are able are asked work, Just what they’re fit to do; A little exercise is good at times, ■But some are against work, 'tis true. Much work is done at the County Home, In the latest modern way; We wash and iron by machinery, On every 'big wash day. “Now this is not a rich man’s home, I’d have everyone to know;” But a good abode for needy ones, Who’ve no homelike place to go. As to the food I find no'fault, Judging it every day; Some seem hard to please at times, And like to have a say. The folks who do the cooking here. Are really hard to beat; Anyone having ‘a good appetite, The food will readily eat. We haVe fruit and vegetables season, As the most of people do; We fare very well all winter, Which I’ll state is right and true. We have fun and music in the home, I’ve laughed very hearty here, I’ll swear; little merriment is good foi' all, And drives away dull-care „ We are given some entertainments, By outsiders now and then, We always welcome “lively” concerts And tell the folks to come again. The building is kept real tidy, (And in all ways kept clean; I’ve heard visitors passing good remarks, About some things they’had seen. We have pleasant outside surround- ' . ings, Where nice flowers all summer bloom; iWhioh;'makes-the Home look cheer ful, And not a place of gloom. We have land connected with the Home, Where our foodstuffs, we grow; f Tis true some things we-have to buy. And then to town we go. Some cows we have to give us milk, And. many pigs in many pens; We’ve of grain in the granary, For horses, cows, pigs and’hens. We’ve lots of fuel in the cellar, Foi- the furnace to keep us warm; When the winter days are frosty, Or in times of wind and storm. On Sundays we hold* church service, In quite a modern way; A good preacher comes here from Clinton, With us, I trust, he’ll stay. The dead are given a funeral, In a respectable way, I know; No one is buried in the pauper’s field, Though some still think, it’s so. Good luck to the County Council, Who are caring for this place; They’re doing an act oi kindness, In each and every case. And now I’m ending my writing, You'll find this a truthful rhyme; Best wishes to all my readers, I may write again some time.

These men affirm that a. plowing match is expected to exemplify something mor© than -the performance of mediocre farm practice. These men offer the constructive criticism that the judging should be done by' standard and by card, That is, they allege, the plow man should be put up against the standard of perfection and de duction in which he falls down. Further, it is alleged, there Should foe a certain standard up to which the plowman must- rise or no prize will be given him. These critics argue that when the standard is high and the prizes worthy, there will 'be real pride in the work of the plowman. As it is they say a great many good workmen feel little satisfaction in- winning in a field where the -average work is not of a high order, believing that the lightly- proffered laurel is not worth having. Many men of many minds, of course, Just the same, good plowing is the foundation of good farm practice. Plowmen invite criticism.

Harper, Silver Water, Out., writes:—“I was Very much worried over the nasty colds and coughs my two children had, I had incd several remedies to no effect. Oho day my husband wail in a drug store and overheard a lady and the druggist discussing remedies, and she seemed very thankful to Dr. Wood’s Norway Pine Syrup for relieving her children, bo he came home „iwi a ooiue, tuiu iu mu unjn i>u«.viu,dren WerB tyell.” Price 35c< h bottle; large family Size 65c., at all drug and general stores; put Up only by The T; Milburn Co., Ltd., Toronto, Ont* Pibo Syrup for relieving her children, eo he came home with a bottle, and in two days the children were Well.” Every so often radio fans listen in on talks by some of Uncle Sam’s big wigs as they discourse upon relieving the worthy unem ployed'. With an eloquence and pathos that would bring tears from a crocodile, these orators portray the needs of Uncle Sam’s’large family of needy children. On the other hand another set of ora tors, or the same set of orators set to another tune, tell of the fabulous wealth of this “great” American nation, hesitate to tell us of the tons of gold stored in the United States treasury. Meanwhile the farmer on the concessions and the man or the woman with a thin pay envelope is out of their pittance the sums needed for unemployment that in all fairness should issue from the vaults of gold of- th* United States government. But that is the way of that govern ment and the United States rulers. There cry is “Let George do it” -A sense of duty never seems to enter seriously into their thoughts.^ The nation that held aloof when the cry was for all the . forces of civilization to unite, to save the world from tyranny and slavery, meanwhile doing its utmost to fatten her citizens on the blood and sweat of those who were fighting waist deep in filth that freedom might'not perish from^tiie earth, need not be,expect ed to help her own children when that help can be wrung from the pockets of her own poor but noible and charitable.

FOR ATHLETES Jessie Alan Brown in Hints or Homebodies says: (A young athlete has asked for diets for athletes. It is encouraging to see the younger generation interested in getting the proper food. Any person who is going in for strenuous ath letics would be well advised to have a thorough medical examination. They should be sure that their .heart and lungs are in good condition, that there is no sugar in. the urine nor signs of goitre. Now as to diet. The amount of meat, eggs and fish should gradual ly be increased. The amount of carbonhydrates should be decreased. That is, lessen the sugar, pies and cakes. Have milk puddings for des serts, milk. pro- Al- the and They will give you eggs and Fruits and vegetables should 'be eaten freely, so that the elimina tion system should -be working perly. Cigarettes are taboo, most as important as diet, is matter of sleep. Regular sleep lots of it is necessary. Years ago, athletes sometimes were given alcohol just before the com petition, to stimulate them. This was discarded as defeating the ob ject, of increasing it competitions sugar rs 1 is given. Sugar is into energy very quickly, the reason for giving it. ually given in the form loaf, or chocolate bars. Yohng persons should not indulge in too strenuous athletics. It is a well known fact, that many young people injure themselves by too keen competition. Just the other day, I was talking to a young man, whose health is not of the best. He fools that ha is burned out, from too much and too strenuous athletics th his toons.
