Headaches, sleeplessness and ner- vousness are often very disagreeable, but when your nervous system gets Into such a condi- tion that the nerves twitch and Jerk, and you have peculiar nervous sensations come over you there is cause for grave u term. 17verybody dreads the thought of paralysis or locomotor ataxia.

The writer of this letter did not know what to expect, but fortunately began the use of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food in time to head .oft danger, and writes that she was entirely cured of the old trouble. The last paragraph proves that the oure was lasting. Mrs. John McKellar, 11 Barton street east, Hamilton, Ont., writes; -- "I was injured some years ago, and that left me with a broken-down ner- vous system. I could not sleep, and suffered from twitching of the nerves and disagreeable nervous sensations. "I then began using Dr. Chase's Nerve Food, and oan say that I never used any medicine that did me so much good; in fact, I am entirely cured of my old trouble. The Nerve Food not only strengthened the nerves, but also built up my system in every way." Under more „recent date Mrs, McKellar writes confirming her oure, and states that she has had inquiries from many people who had heard of the great benefits she obtained front Dr. Chase's Nerve Food.

"Bill Kaiser" has a withered hand and a running ear. Also, he has a shrunken soul, an,d a mind tdhatreeks`with egomania. He is mastoid degenerate of a noble grandmother. In degree he has her power, but not her love. He has her persistance, but not her prescience. He is swollen, like a drowned pup, with a pride that stinks. He never wrote a letter or a mess- age wherein he did not speak of God, as if the Creator was waiting to see him in the lobby. "God is with us" -God is destroying our enemies" -I am pray- ing our God to be with you" -God is giving us victories" -"I am accountable only to my conscience and to God." This belief that the maker of the uni- verse takes a special interest in him marks the man as a megalmoniac, and the idea, that the nations were -laying for him" is the true symptom of para- noia. His talk of Slav invasion is dtall stuff, subtle and sly, to divert attention from his own crafty designs. . His interest in farming was a pose - his encouragement of business a sub- terfuge. Every farmer between 14 and 00 years of age has been drafted into the rank to be food for vultures. Every farm horse that could carry a man or draw a load has been seized. All beef cattle have been appropriat- ed. Every penny in every savings bank in Germany has been levied upon, and a "receipt" given to the starving hold- er. This loss of a lifetime's savings means death to multitudes of old people, to wiaows, children, invalids, and 9ipples. The money a man might have,left to care for his widow, orphans, or aged parents, is swept away in the mael- strom of blood. Old age pensions, sick benefits and life insurance are only dreams. We are told that the kaiser kept the peace for forty-three years, True, just waiting for this stroke at world dominion. Every male child born within that forty-three years, who can now carry a gun, is taken from useful work, and made to do the obscene bidding of this sad, bad, bloody monster. In Germany no private individual can operate an automobile. All the nil and "petrol" has been seized to incinerate the dead. No slab marks their resting place; no records of the slain are kept. In Germany to -day, no bands play in the public parks; all savings banks are closed; commercial banks pay or not, as the war minister orders; all insur- ance companies both life and fire -are bankrupt; colleges are turned into hos- pitals -all students are at the front; factories are closed; laboratories are memories. All the progress of the last forty- three years lies in a jumbled, tumbled mass of fears and tears in the dust and dirt of the gladiatorial arena. All the wealth gained in that forty-three years is already lost, dissolved in a mulch of festering human flesh. Caligula, that royal pagan pervert, was kind compared with the kaiser. Nero, the fiddling fiend, with his care- lessness in the use of fire, never burned property in all his pestilential career worth one-half that destroyed when the kaiser's troops applied the torch to storied Louvain. What has been done before may be done again. The "Thirty Years' War" reduced Germany to cannibalism. The old and crippled were knocked On the head and eaten. The nunneries were turned into com- munes. Nuns, widows, girls were seized- and distributed like cattle, Every soldier was ordered to take two wives, because the country must be re- populated. Women and children toiled in the fields like beasts of burden to raise crops to feed the people. Family names were Lost, forgotten. A now order prevailed. To commemorate the dead was crime. destroyed, a y matter Why do the German people stand b the war lord? The answer is easy. It is a HEST AND HEALTH TO NAOTHER AND CHILD. Mas.

We make a virtue of the thing we are compelled to do. The marvellous recuperative power of the Teutonic people is proved by the fact that the German race was not wiped out of existence long ago, like the Incas or the Aztecs. The will to live was strong and a new race was ours. Are we to go back to that black night of bloody medievalism? Surely not. Our hearts are with Germany- the Germany of invention, skill -but not with the war lord. The emperor does not represent the true Germany. He symbols the lust of power, the thirst for blood. The crazy kaiser will not win. The wisdom of the world backs the allies, and St. Helena awaits. It must be so. Germany will not be subjugated. but she will be relieved of a succubus that has threatened her very existence,. IIOW'S THAT?

St. Swithin is the patron saint who causes rain without restraint; for forty days it rains apace for weal or woe of human race. The farmer wears a face of woe; his crops are cut and still they grow; he'd gladly gather in his grain, but still St. Swithin sends more rain. It rains and rains, and still it rains; the farmer grouches and complains; each shower then two showers brings, 'twould be as well to laugh and sing, for skill St. Swithin lets her go; the rain comes down like sheets of snow. That patron saint is full of glee; he's got the farmer up a tree. We change our song -say we're content, Our land is not with battle rent; we read our daily, and we find that war goes on to curse mankind. We say we're not shot up by guns, nor trampled down by wicked Huns, We hold St. Swithin in disdain, and then we get more sheets of rain. We think of ruined fields of oats, by now it's time to milk the goats. Our chores done up, we go to bed; 'neath lowering skies our prayers are said. We go to sleep 'mid blissful dreams of sunshine coming down in streams. We wake at five or half -past four, St. Swithin's giving us some more. Our grouching has been all in vain, likewise our sanctimonious strain. Small wonder that the heavens weep when men do slaughter men like sheep. Let's all cheer up, a brighter day is dawning for the world they say. St. Swithin is a good old saint; we'll take the rain without complaint. Those forty days will soon be o'er, the sun will shine for forty more. We'll gather in a goodly yield from hayland and from storm -tossed field. Every town has some one store where the loafers congregate to regulate the universe. Every town has a postoffice and a lot of folks who call for mail every day and never get any. Every town has a horrible example. He'gets drunk. won't work, but his wife supports him and loves him with a doglike fidelity no decent man can ever hope to receive. Every town has its old skinflint who discounts notes, buys up land, dresses like a tramp and won't get his wife a new stove. Every town has a bad boy, that all parents hold in horror, and all boys love. Every town hits its champion liar that lies for practice, when he can't find anything to lie about. Every town has its vicious tongued woman who makes trouble as the sparks -fly upward. Every town has its arguer, who will challenge any statement you may make, and prove it's not so. Every town has its giggling girls who go over to the railway station about the time Number Six is due and walk up and down the platform with their arms about each other. Every town has its leading citizen, who leads every committee, and always has a seat on the platform when there is anything going on. Every town has its nice speak-easy, handshaking creature, who tries to be popular with everybody and whom no - 1 body likes. Every town has its grouch face who is unfailingly confident that the worst is yet to come. Every town has a group of men who know that the town is morally the worst in the province. Every town has a man who never wears a collar, and a dude who pastes hiC hair down and sports a pink striped sht. Every town has its bully who is afraid to death of his life. Every town has its own particular brand of big fool. Every town has a man who laughs like an idiot at his own wit. In other words, every town is like every other town. Why mete?

' 4 PATRIOTIC GOODS 1 "Moat parts of Canada where live stock production prevails are suitable to the raising of Angoras, especially if the land is high and dry the greater part of the year. They will withstand. the rigor of even the coldest winter and do not require any greater shelter than a shed to prote"t them from wind and storm, providing a sufficient quantity of nutritious food and pure water are supplied. The Angora goat performs a two-foldservice in the Canadian scheme of farming. It produces a high grade of mohair and at the same time may be used for the destruction of underbrush on lands to be broken for subsequent cultivation." Such is one of the opening paragraphs of Pamphlet No, 12 of the Sheep and Goat Division of the Live Stock Branch devoted to the Angora Goat and a general dis- cussion of methods of management, feeding and breeding, andof mohair production, by T. Reg. Arkell, B.S.A„ B.Sc., and Horace V. Bent, B.S., that can be had at•,no cost whatever by ap- plication to the Publications Branch, Department of Agriculture, Ottawa The Pamphlet gives a brief sketch of the origin and history of the Angora, which from being a native of Turkey in Asia has travelled somewhat extensively into South Africa, is fairly well known in the United States and not as web known in Canada as desirable. Mohair, of which. Turkey, in times of peace, supplies 10,000,000 lb. annually, South Africa 15,000,000 lb. and the rest of the world 6,000,000 Ib., is the technical name given the hair of the Angora goat. The word is derived from the French "mohere" and, primarily, from the Arabic "mukhayyar", meaning mohair cloth. This, with a vast deal more information about a particularly useful goat, is,furnished in the pamphlet under notice. Nature and the necessary treatment for breeding and raising are set forth with details of market possibili- ties, of shearing, or grading and of preparation for shipment. Extracts from letters written by successful breeders in Canada and the United States telling of their experience are printed as well as some account of the complaints to which the animals are occasionally subject, with advice as to preventives and remedies. Illustrations of types and the fleeces carried at various agesjend impression, expression and interest to the pamphlet. The storeroom of every good house- keeper should contain a goodly supply of chocolate. It is full of nutriment, fattening in quality and can be develop- ed into all sorts of dishes tempting to the eye and the palate alike. Nervous, thin children should be al- lowed to drink all the chocolate they want. In making chocolate to drink, about four ounces of the unsweetened chocolate should be allowed for each quart of milk, and it should be sweet- ened with brown sugar rather than white. Boil down until :t has the con- sistency of cream, and just before re- moving from the fire flavor with vanilla. For afternoon tea for grown-ups it is web to add a liberal dash of port wine as a flavoring. The chocolate should not boil after flavoring has been added, as the heat will kill it. Chocolate Pancakes. -This makes a delicious desert for luncheon and one that is quickly prepared. Mix together two eggs, yokes and whites, with two heaping tablespoons of sweetened chocolate that has been grated of un- sweetened brand is used, then the mix- ture must be sweetened to taste), half cup of milk, half cup of flour. Beat all together well. Fry like ordinary pancakes, brown on both sides and roll them, lay on a hot platter, sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve im- mediately. Hot Chocolate Sauce for Vanilla Ice Cream. -In a porcelain saucepan boil together one cup of water and half a cup of granulated sugar. Let it boil for five minutes and then stir in slowly five tablespoons of grated chocolate that has been dissolved in a gill of rich milk or thin cream. Stir until thick and smooth, remove from the fire, add vanilla flavoring to taste, beat thor- oughly and serve. Chocolate Filling. -Melt two squares of chocolate in a saucedan, add half a cup of sugar and half a cup of water. Stir until well mixed, then add one tea- spoon of butter, one teaspoon and a half of cornstarch mixed with half a cup of milk, and stir until boiling. Re- move from the fire, and add half a tea- spoon of vanilla. Spread on the roll while still warm. Children Cry FOR. FL,ETCHER'S CASTORIA Waterloo Council votes two machine guns. .
