Fools Use washes and Snuffs Thinking perhaps they will cure Ca- tarrh—but no one ever heard of a gen- uine cure following such senseless treat- ment. There is just one prompt and thorough cure for Catarrh and it is fra- grant healing Catarrhozone which goes right to the root of the trouble. It de- stroys the germs, heals the iuflamed membranes and cures any case no matter how obstinate or long standing. "I ex- perimented for years with Catarrh rem- edies but found Catarrhozone the most rational and satisfactory," writes W. J. MacEachern of Waterville. "It cured me for all time." For a sure cure use only Catarrhozone. Complete outfit $t, trial size 25c. JAMESTC\VN. Miss Maggie Wheeler of Wingham Junction is visitiug friends in Grey, on lst line.

Every day we hear of someone being taken by pueumonia. The ouly prevent- ive is to get strong and keep your body healthy. Take Ferrozone which makes the rich red kind of blood that nourishes and stimulates the entire system. "I was all ruu down and an apt subject for pneumonia writes A. B. Carters of Bur- lington, when I tried Ferrozone. I didn't believe it was possible for Ferro - zone to build me up so quickly.

All people who want to see the boss look alike to the office boy. Lazy men aro always boasting of what they are goiug to do to -morrow. A snob's opinion of a superior person is one who has more money than himself. A girl is never really in love with a. 'man until she 1•egins to worry about his neckties. Wine either improves with age or turas to vinegar—and it's inucli the same with. people. When a man taken up the reins of govenrnent he always finds himself be- hind a team of kickers. When on woman says that anothesis clever slie means that she is either home- ly or unamiable. --The Medical Talk says: ---There isn't anything in the world more disagreeable than a whining person. Ile whines if it is hot. He whines if it is cold. Ile whines at that, he whines at everything. Whines, whines. whines. It is jest it. habit that he has fallen into. There is nothing the matter with him. The whiner is generally an idle person or e. lazy one. What he needs is to bo set to work—mental or physical.
