"Before I learnt about Trait -a -fives' I felt tired out and run-down, and my nerves were completely gone. Work seemed impossible, Since taking 'Fruit-a- tives' I feel like doing my work. Life is worth living again. I owe my present good health to 'Fruit-a-tives' and unhesi- tatingly recommend them." So writes Mr. John 0. Ringheim, of Wynndel, B.C., whose experience is typ- ical of thousands restored to health by this fine fruit medicine. When the bowels and kidneys are not functioning properly and the stomaRk� is hampered in its work, nervous troubles often follow. "Fruit -a -fives", the natural medicine, sets throes richt: quickly and safely. "Fruit -a -Lives" is composed of fresh fruit juices, intensified and com- bined with tonics ---a wonderful medicine.

DEATH RATE AMONG MOTHERS IN CANADA MUCH TOO HIGH "Thr mortality Talo for women in childbirth in North America is ono . THF BRU:3S LS POST The Night Attack at Stoney Creek. o'Wase '.!! sep , • of the highest among the civilized nations of the world," said Dr. C. L. A. Winslow of Val., University anei a Past President of the American Public Health Association, in speak- ing on April 26th to the Social Wel- fare Conference in Toronto on "Pub- lic Health and Community Well Ile- ing." Of the many new problems arising in the realm of public nealth one of the very greatest is that of maternal and pro -natal mortality, The only two countries in the world which at all adequately deal with these important matters are Holland and Denmark. In both countries such death rates are very low be- cause the health authorities have made generous provision for skilled and supervised nursing caro for mothers before, after and at the time of the birth of their children." "Education," the speaker went on to say, "is the only thing which can successfully change people's habits of living. In such education the public health nurse is the dominant factor and we are conning more and more to see that individual rnstrucion such as is given by the nurses of the Tor- onto Health Department, a depart- ment which is one of the most won- derful in the world, is the only satis- factory solution of the problem offer- ed for our too high death rates among mothers." The figures to which Dr. Winslow referred including Canada. as well as tho United States—show that in the Dominion in 1925; the last year for which detailed statistics ere available, 1,196 mothers were lost 10 childbirth, over half of whom were in the prime of 1ife.

Brock, the inspiration of its defense, had been killed at Queenston in September. York, the capital of the province, had been captured, and its public buildings burned, in April, Fort George, the northern key to the Niagara peninsula, and Newark, at the mouth of the river, nad fallen to the American invaders after a severe engagement, from which the 'British force had extricated itself with heavy losses. The Niagara frontier lay open, while from the west the Americans were preparing to ad- vance from Detroit. The British cen- tre army had fallen back at the end of May to the strongest position in the neighborhood and entrenched it- self on Burlington Heights at the western end of Lake Ontario, within the limits of the present city of Hamilton. The invaders were an overwhelming force and the situation most of the provinces, there died 28,- ,310 infants under one year of age and exclusive of the stillborn. The total les:es of infant life throughout the Dominion in that year, therefore, amounted to 30,353 babies, Realiz- ing what these far from creditable and largely preventable losses moan to Canada, where new settlers are being brought at great cost from long distances to populate the coun- try, both governmental and volun- tary agencies in recent years have been making real efforts to provide y�,crspc,dmz']e Vm�vem,mrt,TIRl3: Aginatal TTEETAT Vented .vr;�gltt�� We pay Highest Cash' Price for Cream. fl cent per .ib.
