Much so-called stomach trouble is
really chronic appendicitis. This can
often be relieved by simple glycerine,
buckthorn, bark etc., as mixed in Ad-
lerika. ZfIost medicines act only on
lower bowel but Adlerika acts on
BOTH upper and lower bowel and re-
moves all gasses and poisons. Brings
out matter you never thought was in
your system. Excellent for obstinate
constipation. W. S. Cole, Druggist.

AT HOME
I'nz glad to have a pleasant home,
with costly chromos there, the lamp
light glowing on my dome, an aunt
in every chair. These simple pleas-
ures do beguile the night hours as
they sail; I play the phonograph a
while, and hear great singers wail;
I ; ead : a volume large and, thief Xeee
dominoes I play-'I`'take' a'drink that
has no kick, and hie me to the hay. -
I'd rather read a goodly book before
the evening fire, than roam the town
and meet a crook who'd rob me of
my lyre. The folks who stay at home
o' night, aunts and other pets, may
miss some garrish wild delights, but
they have no regrets; their simple
life is sane and wise, their accidents
are few, and in the ,morning when
they rise, they are good as new. The
list of crines would quickly slump,
if giddy gents and dames would
gather round "the 'kitchen pump and
play some homely games'. I'd rather
see the homes restored to what it
was Lang Syne, when children group..
ed around the board till half past
eight or nine; they'd read strange
tales from Mother Goose concerning
Miss Bo -Peep, and when the .bedtime.
hour cut loose, they promptly went
to sleep. Old ways are gone and
out of sight,, and won't come back, I
guess; where are those kids of ours
tonight, as we proceed to press?.

YOUR. LOCAL NEWSPAPER
Aside 'from the limited: .number of
single track minds found in every
community, the people generally ap-
preciate and accord liberal support to
the local newspaper -that very inti-
mate medium through which is mir-
rored each week the collective com-
munity activities. •
Your home newspaper bridges the
gap; its chronicles of local news and,
views complete a cirtult of informa-
tion impossible to attain through any
other medium of human locomotion
or mechanical device It brings the
local community as vividly to the
fireside” as the morning sun reveals
,the surrounding landscape.
It is a human institution and there
fore is imperfect; but the courageous
and Sincere newspaper unalterably
stands four square for what it be-
lieves to be the ultimate good of its
town end district and province and
country. Your. .bCirte newspaper en-
deavors to .radiate development - in
trade, health in the lioane, progress
10 civic affairs and good -wilt in the
intercourse between them. In. the
performance of its service it is bound
to run counter to the views of some
--often of many, but 'if it hews to.
the line the chips of respect will not
remain uncounted.
Yehr newspaper, no natter what
•petty differences may arise is the
friend, and .advocate of, every good'
citizen, ali.hough ii,� eeremoi:uit aim
must obviously be 0 better "destiny
