TIM NOT THINKING
ABOUT THE WAR
IN THE EAST
To the Editur av all thim
Wingham i'aypers.
Deer Sur:—
A lot av fellahs do be askin me iv
iry day what I tink about the -war in
Choina, an I am afther tellin thim
that I don't tick about it at all, at all,
if I kin' iiilp it, so I don't.
I had a letther from me ould bro-
ther Matt., soon afther the thrubble,
shtarted, an he Could me no whoite
man .cud undershtand how the rnoinds.
av thim fellahs over in Asia wurruk.
Ye will remirnber, what 1 tonld ye
about Matt., an, av how he, shpint
nmosht .av' his life, an made ai lot av
money, wondherin arround in thim
haythen coun:thries, an thin came
home an married a war widdy wid
foive childer, that nivir cosht him a
'cint to rare, an, sittled down wid thim
on a ranch in Alberta. 1 don't hear
from him very often,: but wan ting
T know, he isn't killin himsilf wid
harrud wurruk, fer, shure, shkamin
tings •wus always more in his loine.
Yis, Matt. wus always purty sharp
on a dale, but he often tould me that
he nivir cud git the' shtart av thim
Jap lads. He wus loilce the .Jew in
Aberdeen: he had to lave the place,
arr go .broke. IIe always belaived
that to be a rale good biziness man
ye hev to be a koind av a moind raid-
er, so ye kin guess what the other
'fellah is tinkinabout, but, he said
that no livin whoite man cud look in-
to .a Jap's face an tell what wus on
his thoind. All thim Aistern payples
are good ,at boldin theer oideas be-
hoind a mask, so to shpake, but thim
Japs are the best av anny at it. Fer
inshtanc-e, "see .how they do be liuttin
it over the laige av Nations at the
prisint toime, wid a lot av the
shmartest niin in the wurruid gath-
ered at Geneva.
Fer thim raysons I don't know an
nyting about the thrubble its Choina,
an don't intind to throy to foind •out,
fer, shure, we do' be havin ,enough
worries av our own, wid thim Grits
foindin fault wid iviryting that is
done arr lift undone.
The thrubble down at Parleyinint
seines, to be that too manny fellahs
want to git on the Joineat the same
toime. Mishter I3innitt is doin the
broadcashtin fer this country at mis-
hit, an what might hev them Grits
an Progressives to be - buttin; its?
Shure, they hev no ;say in tings, at
all, at all, so they shudden't be -al-
lowed to shake.
Thin Link. av that bye, Hepburn,'
throyin to hould two jawbs at the
wan toime, laiden- av the Liberal par -
thy in Ontario, an a inimber av the
Dominion Parleyntint. Shure, he is
wurse than a ..man wid two wolves,
an shud be put in jail fer. pollytickle
bigamy.
I don't see that Jarge Shpotton has
been havin much to '.say in Parley-
mint lately, an 'tis plaized I am in-
.toirety that he has sinse enough not
to be afther wastin the toime av the
House inakin spaiches, whin Mis1•tter
]innitt has his nioind all made up
about what he intinds • to do, befoor.

Tory animbers wid plinty av toime to

loss of energy and strength are but
a few of many complaints which
sometimes arise in overweight men

why not lose this superfluous fat—
regain glorious health and good rooks
again—simply take a half teaspoonful
of Kruschen :salts in a glass of hot
water every morning Before breakfast.
Hrusehen is the safe and healthy way
to reduce, based on scientific principle.
The slenderizing action of I{rusehen
can be speeded by cutting out fatty
meats, pastries, and Ong light on,
butter, cretun and potatoes.
Kruschen helps blood, nerves. glands
and body organs to function properly
again—you gain amazing new- strength
and energy --feel years younger—look
better, work better. Why postpone
attractiveness and superb health?—

GENTLE REGULATION
The best way to prevent colic;
doctors say, is to avoid gas in stomach
and bowels by keeping the entire
intestinal tract open, free from waste.
But remember this: a tiny baby's
tender little organs cannot stand
harsh treatment. They must be
gently urged. This is just the time
Castoria can help most. Castoria,
you know, is made specially for babies
and children. It is a pure vegetable
preparation, perfectly harmless. It
contains no harsh drugs, no narcotics.
For years it has helped anthers
through trying times with colicky
babies and children suffering with
digestive upsets, colds and fever.
