How You May Reduce Varicose or Swollen Veins—Heals Ulcers A Simple Home Treatment The world progresses. Today many minor ailments that took weeks to overcome can be helped much more quickly. If you have varicose veins or bunches, start today to bring them back to normal size and if you are wise you will do so. Just get an original bottle of Moone’s Emerald Oil at any dispens­ ing pharmacist and apply it night and morning to the enlarged veins. In a short time the veins should be­ gin to grow smaller and by regular use soon approach normal. People who want to- reduce vari­ cose veins or swellings, should not hesitate to try a bottle at once. It is so penetrating and economical that a small bottle lasts a long time.

Old-Fashioned Blizzard An old-fashioned blizzard struck this town Sunday and raged foi* most of the day. The day was cold the mercury having dropped to about eight degrees above zero. Motoring was difficult and dangerous. No. 4 highway was cleared with the -snow­ plow. The change tn weather was quite sudden as Saturday was a mild day with slush on the streets. At County Council IFormer Reeve Thomas Pryde, Councillor B. W. Tuckey and Assess­ or John Hind were at Goderich on Friday of last week attending the County Council and listening to the debate on the report of Mogg and Quinlan on the equalization of Hur­ on County.

The regular monthly meeting of the W. C. T. U, was held on Thurs­ day, January 19th in the James St. Church parlor. The devotional exer­ cises, singing, scripture lesson and prayers were led by Mrs. Abbott. The president, Miss Harntoll, then took charge of the business. A reso­ lution was passed protesting against any .change in the Sabbath observ- sance act, that would lessen its ef­ fectiveness as a safeguard in the keeping of the Lord’s Day. The cor­ responding secretary was instructed to forward this resolution to the pipper authorities, The subject for tne day was beer advertising. Last year there was produced in the United States nearly three times as much liquor* as was consumed. Therefore “the trade’’ is anxious to extend business by adverising. The brewing industry has unlimited wealth foi’ advertising and some of their advertisements are beguiling indeed. But this latest objective is to convince the houeswife that beer is a foodstuff and needed by her. family, In the Brewers Journal 'Of June 1’, 1937, Ralph T. Kettering, secretary of the American Brewers’ Association, urges tills line of ad­ vertising. “The time is at hand to begin a concentrated campaign to sell beer to the housewife. Why not enlist the brewers of the nation in a campaign to place beer in its right­ ful place alongside or the bread and other foodstuffs in the pantries of the homes? After all, it is the house­ wife who holds the purse strings of the family. Why not, through a considered advertising and publicity campaign among all, place beer on the family marketing list so that the good housewife, with market basket on arm, will consider her family shopping incomplete unless there is an ample supply of beer on hand for the family over the week-end. Once we convince the housewife that beer is both a temperance beverage and a foodstuff, we have placed beer, its brewers and distributors in a solid firm position to. combat its unfair attackers an’doconstantly growing un­ fair regulations. Why not encourage good will, public approval and a happy future by going to the very heart of the problem in enlisting the housewife on our side and through her the family and the on-coming generations.” Now the following is a true state­ ment. The alcoholic content o-f the beer not sold in hotels runs from more than 9 per cent, to as high as 15 per centt. proof spirits. In Ontario in our beer parlors if a man sits and drinks for any length of time, 'he gees home fuddled and drunk. Ac­ cording to Odette the alcoholic con­ tent of Ontario beer is 5 per cent. But beer is a harmful drink it is in­ toxicating accordng to the verdict of both experience and science. The February meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. Will Cook. A jealous person can always find something to be jealous over. GET A SAFER CAR TODAY ...Tomorrow may be too late! WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO YOU IF A TIRE BLEW OUT AT 50? YOU’D BE SAFER WITH HUDSON’S EXCLUSIVE AUTO-POISE CONTROL WHY? Because this revolutionary mechanical invention (patent applied for) automatically, helps to keep wheels on their course—on rough roads, in heavy side winds, even when a tire blows. The operation of AUTO-POISE CON­ TROL does not require special tires, tubes or extra equipment of any kind. It is standard at no extra cost on all 1939 Hudson passenger cars; NO OTHER CAR HAS ANYTHING LIKE IT. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO YOU IF HYDRAULICS SUDDENLY FAILED? YOU’D be SAFER WITH HUDSON’S EXCLUSIVE DOUBLE-SAFE BRAKES WHY? Because, even if hydraulics should sud­ denly fail through accident or service neglect, the driver of a Hudson just pushes farther on the same foot pedal and STOPS.Thanks to Hudson’s exclusive Double-Safe Brakes—two braking sys­ tems (finest Bendix Hydraulics and a separate reserve mechanical system) working automati­ cally from the same foot pedal. Many letters in our files tell of accidents prevented by Double­ Safe Brakes, standard in all 1939 Hudsons. NAWl A DELUXE HUDSON 112 PRICED DOWN WITH I1VVV.

WOODHAM There were no services held at our church last Sunday owing to the storm. Some of the young people from here attended skating at the Kirk­ ton arena at Kirkton Saturday even­ last. Rabbit hunting these days is quite prevalent among our young men. I was carried unanimously by the congregation, expressing a desire that no change be made by the Pro­ vincial Government in the Sunday Obesrvance Laws. Some of our “flu” sufferers are able to be out again, we are pleased to report. Miss Rhea Mills R.N., is at pres­ ent nursing a patient in Strathroy. The annual congregational meet­ ing will be held on the evening of January 25th. Miss Marjory Laing, teacher of Stephen School spent the week-end at the home of her parents, Mrs. Jas.

Wheezing In The Bronchial Tubes Bronchitis comes from a neglected cold or cough and begins with a tightness across the chest, there is a difficulty in breathing, a wheezing sound comes from the bronchial tubes, and considerable phlegm is raised when coughing takes place. On the first sign of bronchitis you should check it immediately by using Dr. Wood’s Norway Pine Syrup and thereby preventing it becoming chronic, and, perhaps, developing into something more serious.

HUDSON HUDSON 112 • HUDSON SIX • HUDSON COUNTRY CLUB SIX AND IIGHT LEFT THE ARMY WITH RHEUMATISM Now Fit to Join Again Twenty years ago, he left the army constipated and rheumatic. Today, he is fit and nimble — a merry, romp­ ing granddad, 61 years young. “I came out of the army with rheumatism,” he writes. “It was es­ pecially bad in my feet. I started taking Kruschen Salts, and in a lew months I found relief from my rheu­ matism. I became nimble on my feet. Now„ at 61 — weighing 16'8 — I am cheerful, energetic, and always ready to' play with my grandchildren.”— F.E.B. Many people grow old long be­ fore their time because they neglect one vital need of health — the need for internal cleanliness. Evenutally, they adopt the healthy Kruschen habit. Then, probably for the first time: in their lives, they start get­ ting, rid every day cf waste matter from the system, The result is re­ newed health and vigour. Ailments- due to a clogged system vanish, youth returns, and life becomes- really worth living. Liberty means barbarism — re­ straint develops civilization.
