e THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14TH, jos? Do you realize what causes a good deal of rheumatic pain? Nothing but sharypâ€"edged uric acid crystals which form as <the result of sluggish eliminaâ€" ting organs. Kruschen Saits can alâ€" ways be counteg upon to clear those painful crystals from the system. ""I was taken ill with terrible rhcuâ€" matic ~pains in my legs. They were badly inflamed, swollen, and they were partly cover(d with red, hard lumps. To put my foot down to the ground was agony. Afiter I had been in bed for 16 days, suffering agony all the time, my husband said, ‘You can‘t go on sufferâ€" ing like this,, let us try Kruschen Salts.‘ He got a bottle, and almost from the first I folt benefit.

The almost universal local custom was that stores should kesp open until 9 t o‘clock on Saturdays and pay nights. It was resolved, after much discussion, that starting from January i1st, 1938, | the stores of the Society should close at 6 o‘clock every night of the week, and that in the meantime through notices and the Society‘s fortnightly magazine ’the members should be intormed of the lfact, and of the reasons for which this | course was being taken. It was felt | that as the membership of the society was mostly composed of working men.l ‘that the society should give the lead in the matter of reducing working hours, even though in the transition, there should be some slight inconâ€" venience urtil members became used to the new hours. The Board were authorized to spend $7500 on' the purchase of land for the erection of warehouse and bakery and other manufacturing plant, which would be needed in the near future. The general manager (Mr. C. M. Haapanen), commenting on the inâ€" Coal sales at South Porcupine adâ€" vanced considerably after the increase o¢f warehcusing space some 1% times.

The rickshaw is not very lethal; in fact I‘ve never heard of anyone being knocked down and killed by a rick-‘ shaw. If this did happen, I feel cerâ€" tain that he would go down to history bracketed with the man who perished by the butt of a malmsey or with him who was bitten by a surfeit of lampreys. (Calcutta Statesman) Although one soon gets tired of being restricted to the four or five miles per hour of the rickshaw, Simla shares with many other hill stations the inestimable advantage of having no "death on the roads" problem.

And, if he car help it, no parent will allow his youngster to go through life with an unsightly spinal curvature. If, however, there are two curves in the spine, one to the lefitâ€"and the other to the right, this is true lateral spinal curvatureâ€"scoliosis, and the spine canâ€" not be brought straight by the method used in false curvature. An ortopedic specialist should be consulted. j When there is just one long curve present in the spine, usually to the left, it is because the youngster has the habit of standing on the right foot. This puts the left shculder high and the right shoulder low as mentioned above. By lowering left shoulder | raisingâ€"rightâ€"shoulder the spine can be brought into a straight line, with the tops or bottoms of the shoulder blades (the wings) even with one another. If the youngster is instructed to bend forâ€" ward, with hands well above the head, the ‘curve‘‘ sideways disappears, as l:hei spine becomes perfectly straight.. By hanging a few times morning and evenâ€" ing on a pair of rings with the one on the low shoulder side higher than the other, and having the younster stand on the opposite leg whenever he thinks about it, this "false"" type of spinal curvature can be corrected in a few months; the younger the child the shorter the time necessary to obtain the correction. Most school physiciars are fortunateâ€" ly quite familiar with true and with false curvature and can give the necesâ€" sary instructions as to what is necesâ€" sary. True and False Spinal Curvature You may have noticed that your youngster, more often a girl than a boy, seems to have one shoulder higher than the other or one shoulder lower than the other. You notice also that the youngster seems to ‘rest his or her weight on the one leg, usually the right, which lowers the shoulder on that side or lifts the shouxder on the oppoâ€" site side. Ycr may or may not be surprised then when the school physician reports that there is a spinal curvature present and that treatment is necessary. After election of the pansl from which the directors will be elected at the next annual meeting, refreshments were served. Two cf the three delegates of the society to the Canadian Coâ€"operative Congress in Montreal (Messrs. Heino and Clifton) gave accounts of the proceedings at the Congress. The gerora manager touched furâ€" ther in his report on the slight dectine in ccal sales for Timmins and Schuâ€" macher branches. He reminded th: members that while their present faâ€" cilities did not permit them to supply coal on day of order, as the private dealers could, that in 1935 prior to the entrance of the society into the field of ecal distribution the generali level â€"f corml prices in the camp was $1.50 and more bner ton higher than it was after the society commenced offering effecâ€" tive competition.

It is mentioned several times in Lewis Collins‘ "History of Kenâ€" tucky" which traced: referencesâ€"to it back to the operations band of French explorers in 1754. Swift, according to the story Kopf heard, had found the deposit, only to lose its location when he went blind, and had spent his declining years in a ~search for it with a faithful halfâ€" breed Indian. The Indian was supposed to have been murdered when he refused to aid later searchers. Burtedâ€" Silver Swift‘s jourral, adding to the fabuâ€" lous legend, told how the adventurer and his companions had buried $30,000 worth of bar silver before: they were driven from the country by hostile Inâ€" dians. $25,000 Capital Kopn! would not reveal the exact loâ€" cation of the mine. He said he had cbtained mineral rights to 6348 acres of land surrounding the mine, and that he would begin mining operations as soon {s he could raise $25.000 operating capita‘!. Kop{ said he first became interested in the legend six years ago when h# heard the story of the adventurer John Swift, who joired in operating the mine at various periods between 1762 and 1768. I. E6. Kopf. who, with his searching party. found the storied mine after folâ€" Icwing the fork of a into a steep canyon in the mountainous terrain of Wolie County, said that assays of its ore revealed a gold content of $i60 to $180 a ton.
