BEAVERS Merchandising representatives from the Norge Division of Consolidated Industries were in town a few days ago going over the electric refrig­ eration picture with Mr. B. W. F. Beavers who has recently obtained the Norge Franchise. They were keenly enthusiastic over the possibil­ ities of electric refrigeration this coming season , pointing out that in spite of depressed business condi­ tions, this was one Canadian indust­ ry that was experiencing a boom all its own. (Sales in 1931 were con­ siderably in excess of those of 1930 and as far as could be judged from advance orders, 19|3i2 would see ap­ proximately double the sales of last year with the result that prospects looked very promising. This ’in­ crease would be enhanced by. the fact that throughout Western On­ tario there had been very little nat­ ural ice and the more important I fact that the consumer was adopt­ ing a more confident attitude to­ wards making future commitments. The fact that the world’s surplus supply of commodities-is experienc­ ing gradual depletion is possibly the most encouraging sign on the hori­ zon in that it may prove to be the way out, of our financial problems.’ With any material increase in the price of wheat, there should fee an accompanying increase in the price of other basis products. This would all result in an inevitable, im­ provement in the Canadian economic situation since it would lead to the necessary increase in the purchasing power of the farmer. Many experienced business men foresee this development in the not too distant future and this is one of the more important factors that is gradually encouragnig the con­ sumer to come back into the market and live more in the fashion of the good old days. In discussing the Exeter situation with the editor, the Norge represen­ tatives were quite delighted with their good fortune in securing the sound and substantial representation they have and were looking forward; to many years of pleasant associa­ tion with Mr. Beavers. Mr. Beavers, himself, appears quite pleased with his new affilia­ tion. The way he puts it is this: “Consolidated Industries 'is entire­ ly Canadian in its set-up. It owns, the Canadian pjatents on a great many well-lfcnown products includ­ ing Norge electric Refrigerators, sHammond electric clocks, Conlon Electric Washers and Ironers, Mag- navox loud speakers, Crosley radio receivers and others.

FAT IN 3 JJ0NTHS AT THE AGE OF 40 M I was very stout, and I have take® Krusclicn Salts for 3 months, and have- reduced from 212 lbs. to 182 lbs, (age 40). I am a hearty eater, and have (never dieted in atiy way. Also I havWr never felt any ill effects whilst I have* been taking Kruscpen salts.’’--!. H. That is an instance of Kruseheu succeeding without assistance. But if any fat person will be satisfied with a. moderate diet, and will take one holC teaspoon of Kruschen Salts in a glass- of hot water before breakfast every morning—they can lose fat in just the- same way. This is what Kruschen Salts does— it cleans out the impurities in your blood by keeping the bowels, kidney* and liver in splendid Working sliaj>c^ and fills you With a vigor and tireles* energy you’d almost forgotten liadi existed—you get the needful exercise.. As a result, instead of planting your­ self in an easy chair every free moment and letting flabby fat accumulate, yow feel an urge for activity that keeps your moving around doing the things you’va- always wanted to do and needed to do to keep you in good condition.
