Wonderful relief from pain Backnche is one of those wearying complaints which bind all their victims together with a common bond of misery. And when any one sufferer from backache finds a sure remedy, fellowship prompts the quick report of that discovery to others. Here‘s a woman who has her friend to thank for knowledge of a remarkably successful treatment. Now gratitude compels her, in turn, to pass along the good news to you. “ I am writing to tell you of the great benefit I have received from Krusehen Salts. My friend, Mrs. 11., had received so much benefit that she begged me to give Knnchen a trial, although at first I was doubtful, because I had tried so many thin . At last, however, I tried some of fer Kruschen, and, feeling hopeful, I purchased a bettle. and I can honestly say that before I had finished the bottle my backache was gone. I have suffered for with kidney trouble and dreadful headaches, and now to be free from pain altogether is wonderful.”â€" the (Mrs. C.)

Last week The Advance received the following letter which was too late for insertion in the last issue but is pub- lished herewith. On several occasions The Advance has received letters from this reader at McIntosh Springs and these letters are always interesting and thought-inspiring. McIntosh Springs, Ont.. Sept. 15th, 1935 To the Editor of The Advance. Timmins. Dear Slrzâ€"Permlt me the privilege of your valuable space. and I trust the indulgence of your readers. by referring to Mr. Preston’s letter of last week and making some observations in connec- tion therewith. In so doing there is no attempt to appropriate Mr. Preston’s “thunder” or the vividness of his literary lightning. His silence of some months has been productive of bringing forward several potential ideas. Myself. not having. like our modern‘ Moses, scaled the dizzy heights of Cook: Mountain, and seen with prophetic eyes the panorama of a scene suggesting more Hollingers. Domes, McIntyres. Lake Shores, etc., I will assume a les- ser role by having perhapn. ascended part way up other mountains sufficient- ly high, I hOpe, to see over the tree tops, and while I hope Mr. Preston win live to see many big mines in his ter- ritory, I will not concede to him a monopoly of possible big mines in the North. There are numerous pronerties in the Porcupine camp that will some day rate favourably with anything hereto- fore develoqfizd. Last spring in conver- sation with a well-known mining en- gineer from Cobalt. the relative merits of Kirkland Lake and Porcupine were discussed. He stated Kirkland Lake is a very much richer camp in grade of ore but will never have the long life f Porcupine. To refer back to a period of some five years ago, I can now. I believe, quote the words of an official at the present time not connected with one of the ‘ozg three in the Porcupine. His intimate knowledge of the possibilities of this camp induced him to sayzâ€"“It has the goods.” Of course. he said, the policy of many mining companies is to strangle, freeze out, property owners. "That is business" was his statement. If such be the facts, it is indeed very poor business for the prospector and property-omrer. Perhaps, Mr. Preston could make some suggestions to remedy the evil if such exists. I have some ideas of my own which, perhaps, I will advance at some other time, as with the prize list of the Porcupine fair and other items, your space will 'be crowded. Yours very truly, C. J. DAWSON. Note:â€"â€"-In fairness to Mr. Preston it may be added that he is in agreement with Mr. Dawson in reference to the possibility, nay, the probability. almost indeed, the certainty of there being ,several more important gold mines in ;:his Porcupine area. All the facts of i the case seem to suggest that there are : other big mines in this immediate dis- itrict. From his high tower at Cook ‘Mountain Mr Preston may see visions. of big mining properties in the area liatround him, but for years past he has lal so urged the opinion that Mr. Daw- 1 son new advances so skillfully and v: all â€"the opinion that the Porcupine still 1 has many notable new mines to be de- ' 'velopedâ€"the opinion so 0 ten expressed ‘by TheA Advance in years pastâ€"‘ that the country has scarcely been scratch- I ed as yet. BIG AIRPLANE PASSES OVER THE NORTH LAND LAST \VEEK The Haileyburian last week says:â€" “The biggest thing in flying machines that; has been seen in this part of the country so far is a big Sikorsky 8-38 monoplane, which landed here on Tues- day with a party of eight men who are travelling over a portion of Northern Ontario and Quebec. The big machine is driven by twa Wasp motors. mounted one on either side of the cabin. It has a wing spread of some 76 feet and a to- tal weight; of 10,500 pounds. It. is equipped with booth pontoons and Wheels and it is stated that it can be handled either on water or on lane. The plan bears the name of Sikorsky AerOplane Corporation. of Bridgeport. Conn. Mr. E. E. Johnson. the head of the' party travelling in the plane. was very reticent as to the purpose of the visit here. He gave his home town as Port Arthur and stated that. with a party of friends and associates, he was just? “seeing the country." He said that1 they had been east to the Island of Antieosti on a fishing trip and had come north to have a look over this section and also a part of Quebec. He declined to state more definitely the object of his visit. At about the same time a Fokker plane arrive with a smaller party. presumably on a similar mission, but whether in any connection with the larger party is not known. On Tuesday a third plane made a call here, giving the harbour something of the look of a regular airport. Harry McLean, contractor on the T. 8: N. 0. extension to the north of Cochrane. was on his way back to the north fromi may not. be waltlx North Bay and stopped here to refuel. i help comes, but tl The other parties are guests at Hotel,man at the sham Halleybury and will be here for another] and families with day or two. according to Mr. Johnson." in the city. 1 § That Canada is finding one grow ing! market within her own borders for Western Wheat surpluses is revealed by statistics complied over the past few years and released today (September 15th) by the Canadian Shredded Wheat Company, Ltd. The figures. wh1ch are in the nature of a market research, are a wide spread survey of the use of whoi: wheat foods in Canadian homes and show an enormously increased popu- larity for Wheaten articles of diet com- pared to five years ago. This is par- ticularly t1 ue of prepared whole Wheat food. Since (in the case of the Can- adian Shredded Wheat Company‘s pro- duct at least) the sole source of sup- 1 y is Western whole wheat grain, the consumption of crop surpluses in this form has been very coniderable ‘In round figures you can take it that nearly two million families are today including whole wheat foods in their daily diet ” said an offlcal of the Shredded Wheat Company in an in- terview. “Our researches, while not of course covering every home in Canada. tend to show that hundreds of thous- ands of these homes are using today at least one ounce more of prepared whole wheat in the shape of shredded wheat. biscuits, per head of the family, than was the case five years ago. Thus Canada is finding a market for about 2.000.000 pounds more Canadian whea: weekly from this source alone." _ "__U We attribute to growing popularity of whole wheat prepared foods to a grow- ing interest in dietetics on the part of Canadian housewives. Both the medical franternity and the whole wheat food manufacturers have for years been urg- ing and rightly urging, the essential food value and the economy of wheat in articles of diet. The combined propa- ganda is beginning to take effect and as a result, Canada‘s surplus of wheat is being reduced at a time when reduction is badly needed. Minister Announces An Increase in Wolf Bounty anada Finding Growing Market Here for Wheat (From The Sud-bury Star) Farmers. sheep ranchers, hunters, Lrappers and the public generally will welcome the announcement. received by the County Treasurer from the de- partment of game and fisheries for On- tario that the bounty on wolves has been increased. For years the press and many public bcclies have been agitating for this ac- ticn claiming that it will ultimately mean more protection for deer, sheep and farm animals as it would provide an incentive for trappers and hunters to devote their time to exterminating waives. Under the new legislation in the Southern Division of Ontario, in which this section i: located. the bounty will be $25.00 for all wolves over three menths of age and $5.00 on wolf whelps under that age. In the Northern Divlsion. north and west of the French and Mattawa rivers, the wolves must be killed within twenty miles of an agricultural settlement if the increased bounty is to be paid. It killed beyond this limit the bounty will be the same as in the past, $15.00 on welves over three months old and $5.00 on wolves under the age of three months. Unquestionably this new legislation should be of benefit to a large section of Renfrew county. particularly that adjacent to Algonquin Park. Regina Starzâ€"A taxi-driver in New York last week got a call to hasten at once to Apartment 1. 3463 Park avenue. Taxi-men are used to strange requests. but this chap got the surprise of his life. When he reached the address the lady of the house met him and told him that her husband was hanging by ai rope from a beam at the back of the dwelling. Seizing a knife the trusty taxi-man proceeded to cut friend hus- band down, after which he called in the police. The life of the husband was saved, and he was placed under arrest on a charge of attempted suicide. Asked at the police station why she sent for a taxi instead of for the police, the wife made a sensible explanation that she thought a taxi_man would get there quicker than a policeman. This 1 opens up a whole range of new business Ffor taxi-men. The police van may or imay not be waiting when the call for ihelp comes, but there's always a taxi- man at the stand waiting for a call land families with the street addresses RElAY RACE 10 BE HELD AI MUNIEIIH 0N UBIUBER H Northern News Announces Date of An- nual Event.

The race will be twelve miles with each boy running two miles. Part of the race will be on the hack and the balance on the road. Should the weather be inclement. the whole race will be run on the track. Englehart were hot foo: after the race this year but were two days lat; in making application. They howeve have already made application for the 1931 lace and it will likely be held there next year There will be no change in the rue. of the race and entry forms together with a copy of the rules will be for- warded to all clubs within a week.
