You may talk about your voitures When you're sitting round the quarters. But when it comes to gettin’ bles- sins‘ in, Take a little tip from me. Let those heavy motors be, Pin your faith_t_o Henry F’s. old Hunka Tin. Give her essence and l’eau, Crank her up and let her go, You back-firinlspark plug foulin’ The paint is not so good. And no doubt you’ll lind the hood Will rattle like a boiler top en mute The cooler’s sure to boil. And. perhaps she’s leakin’ oil, Then oftentimes the horn declines to toot. But when the night is black, And there‘s blesses to take back, And they hardly give you time to take a smoke, ' It's mighty good to feel. When you're sittin’ at the wheel, She‘ll be running when the bigger cars are broke. After all the wars are past, And we’re taken home at last. To our reward. of which the prea- cher sings. When these. ukelele sharps Will be strumming golden harps. And the aV'lat-UI'S all have reg’lar wings. \Vhen the Kaiser is in hell, With the furnace drawing well, Paying for his million different kinds of sin. If they‘re'running short of coal, Show me haw to reach the hole, And I‘ll cast a few loads down with Hunka Tin. Yes. Tin Tin. Tin. You exasperating puzzle, Hunks. Tin I‘ve abused you and I’ve flayed you, But by Henry Ford who made you, You are better than a Packard, Hunka Tin.

In many cases this can be done by feeding a few more head of Cattle or Sheep for breeding purposes. .The Deâ€" partment. therefore calls attention to the announcement of the Federal Minister of Agriculture offering to pay freight Ship- ments on car lots from Eastern Stock Yards to country points. Individually or in co-operation with your neighbors you can purchase a car load of Heifers or ewes, or both combined, and have them shipped from any Eastern Stock Yard to your Station Without any cost for freight charges” .You will he required 1:0 make a declaration that the stock is for breeding purposes 011”- Any farmer or drover can purchase a car load of Cattle for feeding purposes on the Winnipeg Mrket and have them shlpped to any country point in Ontario upon paymet of only one-half the usual freight charges.

Twelve hundâ€" red dollars was taken as the ob- ‘jective. and the campaign will be on November 8th, for one day only. The officers and management ap- pointed are as follows: _“ - T Tfn‘llvv Such unusual power of penetra- tion does Zam-Buk possess that it is capable of reaching the under- lying tissues. In cases of skin trouble, this is where the! great- est accumulation of germs is, and until these are destroyed a per- manent cure cannot be effected. Zam-Buk destroys all germs with which it comes in contact. When the diseased part is thoroughly cleansed and purified, the herbal extracts, of which Zam-Buk is com- posed, grow new skin, and a com- plete and lasting cure is the result. Zam-Buk is a. reliable cure for eczema, ringworm, bad leg, running sores, ulcers, abscesses, blood-poi. zoning, piles, cuts, burns, scale, etc. All dealers or Zam-Buk 00..

This. in fact, is the first 1)ers4‘»nal appeal made here for nearly two years, and failure to meet the objective would show the town in a poor patriotic light. Capt.

There is no better judge of a good white lead than a veteran painter. That this white lead has been a favourite among veteran painters throughout Canada is due to its superior qualities. Brandram’s Genuine B.B. White Lead takes hold, wears awaY gradually and leaves a good sur- face for repainting. It does not crack or peel. The ease with which it works under the brush is not approached by any other white lead. It has greater covering capacity and greater lasting quali- ties, conse ‘.:cntly it will protect better and give a more beautiful finish. Brandram’s Genuine BI.
