said she heard a mother _say what she
thought of the Township Council fox'
giving a gift to a returned elan from
another .country away out West. 1
thin she'll have to explain her talking
to that township mother and she'll
have to prove that this ' mother
has live sons and live sons-
in-law who never dfd anything for, the
war, and she'll have to prove that
they , never evt�if gave blood to save
a poor, soldier. Thio. mother will have
to expltliu, in next issue how they

From Headaches
It is hard to struggle along with ahead thet aches
and pains all the time. y .
A headache need not be an illness in itself, but it
may be an warning symptom that there is intestinal
slug ishness within° .
o help overcome the cause of headache it is
necessary -to eliminate the waste matter from the system. Burdock Bleod
. Bitters helps to remove the cause ol; headaches by regulatingthe digestive
and biliary organs, neutralizing acidity, regulating the constipated bowels •
and toning up the sluggish liver, and when this has been accomplished the
headaches should disappear.
