It may seem an exaggeration to state that 90% of all human ailments SUAULC JU q UL dill IHUILIOLZIL L 4B WbA are caused by constipationâ€"but it is so. ‘‘And what causes constipation and how may it be cured ?‘‘ you ask. The answer is simple. Constipation is a result of our qverâ€"civilized habits and diets, lack of vigorous exercises and lack of natural foods. The cure for constipation is simple, tooâ€"and effectiveâ€"just warm water. When you are constipated you are holding in your colon, or bowels, an accumulation of waste matterâ€"viruâ€" lent poison. That waste can be washed out with the J. B. L. Cascade. It gives a ‘‘high enema‘‘â€"that means it sends warm antiseptic water right through the colon to the very end. â€"It softens and dislodges all waste. Only a ‘‘high enema‘‘ will do that. Oncé these poisonous accumulations are removed the cause of rheumatism, sick headaches, biliousness, appendiâ€" citis, impure blood and a host of other i#lls, is gone. â€" :+ ---‘l, °-â€"â€"v ‘*High enema,‘‘ an exclusive, priceâ€" less feature of: ‘the J.

RADIO OPERATORS WANT TO ACCOMPANY PROSPECTORS Mr. M. J. Cavaney; of Sandy Falls, P.O0., who has both receiving and broadcasting sets and is well known as one of the pioneers in radio in the North, informs The Advance that he receives from time to time inquiries from young men radio operators who desire to accompany engineers, surveyors or prospecting parties during the summer. The idea would be that the radjo operator take on the duties regularly assigned> to one of the working crew, in addition to keeping the party in touch with their headquarters by radio daily, at a nominal salary. In most cases the operator is in a position to furâ€" nish his own radio equipment.

The following letter was xeceived this week :â€" To the Editor of _ The Advance, Timmins. . k4 Dear Sir:â€"Will the Porcupine Dog Race Committee explain the happenâ€" ings on the Freight Race# In the first meeting it was said that. each dog would get one hundred pounds dead weight, but in weighing of loads several men were weighed in, and what the man was less than a ‘hunâ€" dred. pounds, some gravel was put on the sleigh. Bu; when I asked why this was done, they answered that they were crippled, who can‘t run. There would be nothing to say if they stayed on the sleigh as a dead gravel, which was used instead of the load. But when on the road and the sleigh ran in the ditch the man got off the sleigh and pulled the sleigh on the. road again and drove ahead. When, asked why he did this, he answered that he helped the one he was passing. The ones who said they were unable to run could help the others. : First he had his team fixed. The other cripple had a good sized stick, which he used to push the sleigh and beâ€" sides that used His feet which were handy where in the middle of the road was no snow. Everyone could realize that no man could race the team which the driver sits on the sleigh and helps. It is easy to realize that a good driver could run after the dogs for one mile at once. But when he stands on at the back, the dogs will have one hundred and sixty or one hundred and, seventyâ€"five pounds more and how can anyone with a difference like that go on a race? Would like to know who had to win,â€"the driver and the heavy load,â€"or the cripples with no 1-oad? Who do you think had to win? I could have brought a receipt from the doctor that I am short winded and can‘t run behind a dog team for three miles, and would have to be weighed in the load. If the crippled had such good feams, why did they not take a driver and themselves. stay on the sleigh as a dead gravel bag, which has to be taken off the sleigh, when fallen in the ditch, but worked with feet, hands and mouth to help their teams. In the meeting or when entry was made and paid ‘the five dollars entry fee; nothing was said about it. At the meeting it was stated that there would be men placed in Schuâ€" macher on the turns to see that noâ€" body took short cuts. One team came in Schumacher at Melntyre Hall. The numbger is known and can be proven. Th. PURNIS. Note:â€"It may be said in regard to thé above letter that in the case®of crippled drivers it has been the cusâ€" tom to allow them to weigh in as part of the load in past was the dog team drivers themselves who unanimously agreed to this in the case of the freight race some years ago. Another year the drivers also agreed to one crippled man sitting on the sleigh as part of the load and also having a.driver. After the race the drivers thought this was too much of a handicap to the others, but the Weigh; ing in of a erippled driver as part of the load has always been allowed. From ‘faraway Norway this week there comes a card of thanks expressâ€" ing appreciation for the kindness and sympathy shown by the people of. Timmins at the time of the death of R Sranal whose sister writes from North Bay Nugget:â€"A British moâ€" broke all speed records by drivâ€" ing his racing car at 206 miles an hour. A British airman broke five aviation records when he made a solo flight from England to Australia in 15 days. Those slow British!. Mrs.. F. M. Burke and ned last week from a visit South Porecupine, Ont., § March 14th, 1928. vices, mome oT these TaACtS Nad Aiâ€" ready been published in the press from his data in most interesting way and his address throughout held the elosest attention of all and was generâ€" ally considered as a most valuable one. The population of the town was given as 11,652, and the area as 740 acres. There were 2550 separate premises here. In the year there were 230,144,â€" 000 imperial gallons of water used by the town, this being apart, of course, from the amount used by the Hollinger.â€" The Hollinger operates the new pumping plant, charging the: town at cost for the service, the cosp including operating charges and a perâ€" centage of ca>pitz?l _ The per capita consumption of water in town was given by Mr. Murdock as 34 galâ€" lons per day, or 340 gallons for eacn _house here. Last year the waterâ€" works system earned $56,305.0U, inâ€" eluding the $6850 for hydrant rent charged to the fire department. . The expenditures were $57,300.00, leaving a net loss of approximately $1000.00. The expenditures. were:â€"Hollinger, for pumping, $13,600.00 ; debentures, $26,050,00; and 250 services installed, $16,000.00. . The latter item in. most places is charged to capital expendiâ€" tures, or there are so few new serâ€" vices that the item is not important. Here, however, the large number of new services installed each year and paid for out fif.,current ‘lf.venqe.mgkes a notable difference.. With this item paid for by debentures, the waterâ€" works system would show a good yerly profit. However, as Mr. Murâ€" dock noted in passing, the waterworks last year had only a $1000.00 loss on the books, while for the previous year the bookkeeping loss shown was $90770.75. The waterworks debentures sold total $325,000, of which $200,â€" 000 are still to pay. There are 14\ miles of. water mains, from 4 to 20 inches in, diameter, seventyâ€"five per cent. being six inch. There are 137 4 7 e mt s# ’UULME 4J A 4A % it ES SWn fire hydrants. The valves total 363, of these 137 being on hydrant branches and 183 on mains. There are 139 meters, out of the 1950 services: Mr. Murdock favoured an extension of the meter plan for the following reasons : it seems the most equitable way, light and power being sold this way in preâ€" ference to flat rates; you pay for | what you use, no more, no less, unâ€" | der the meter plan, and meters p_'re-| vent waste, by inducing general ca;re-t CC 0 @ .“ #@ © * 00 4 0 <€ %4, 0 @ % “.- * % € 4. 0 % 09 #, @ 4 .“ 4@ * pola«ie« 0 oto * =» ~ e # ® y eb . . o M e 120000000 00e cte stectocte CR SE3 ed $4%.84, evtrectodies 3 ouoouoouoouoouoouoou fu‘u’u‘n‘uo.00.0000000000000000\‘0303000000030300000003030 L C e Ne e n oo io P PP P P iqh oo oo s 5* o *n "o" 0 0 0 ©0 0‘ 00 0 O * of these facts § sewers, and activated sludge disposal plant.

The three princiâ€" ‘ples were:â€"(1) dilution; (2) oxygen aerati®n and putrification combined; (3) settlement of solids. There are $180,000 sewers debentures sold, with $150,000 still unpaid. The yearly cost of the sewers is $9,000.00, inâ€" cluding the cost of 92 sewer connecâ€" tions. . The sewerage disposal costs $3500.00 for the year; the garbage disposal, : $14,000.00; :~and : $4,500.00 tor the incinerator.
