SATURDAY, FEB TROUBLED Pwr. CONSTIPATION FROM 16 TO 20, Constipation is one of the com- monest ills of mankind, and one too often allowed to go unlocked after until some serious complication sets in.

Almost Helpless From Rheumatism Only Able to Mave About Crutches ww DroWilliams Pink Pills" Restored Activity. on Inflammatory rheumatism, acute rheumatism and rheumatic fever aie different names for practically the same thing. It comes on with hardly any warning. The pain is excruciat- ing, and there is a tendency of the disease to attack 'the heart when it may have fal results. Any one who has suffered from an attack of inflammatory rheumatism knows that the wmsgal treatment is highly unsatisfactory. External apph- cations of "hot cloths and Hniments and interncl doses of salicylates to relieve che pain are not enough, for they do aot drive tae poison from the blood, and the sufferer is liable to renewed attacks whenever exposed to cold or dampness. To cure rheumatism so that it will stay cured the rheumatic poison. in jthe blood must be driven out, and the blood made rich and red. When the blood is pure there can be no rleu- matism. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills build up the blood, make it rich, red and pure and in this way cure the most obstinate cases of rheumatism. Mr. George Harbottle, R. R. No. 1, Feversham, Ont, is one whose cure through the use of Dr. Williams' Rink Pilis is most striking. His mother gives the particulars of his attack and cure as follows: Some years ago while my son was working as a blacksmith in a Michigan lumber lecamp he was attacked with rheuma- tic fever, He was at once taken to a hospital at Marsenett, and was there under medical treatment for four months with but little or no re- lief. He then decided to go to Mount Clemmens, where he took the baths for nearly three weeks, but did not get any benefit from them. By this time he felt that his 'case was hopeless and decided to return home. When he reached home he could only move around by the use of a crutch and a cane. One knee was so stiff that he could not bend it, and most of his joints were swollen out ef shape. He could neither dress nor undress himself and had to be helped like a child. I urged him to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and finally he been taking the pills a few weeks when he could limp about, without the crutch, and his appetite greatly improved. This gave him new cour- age and as he continued the use of lieved to be one of the world's wet- | consented to do so. He had only!report will be a big wrestling mateh py 1918.

It is a shrine which count- less thousands will visit in the years of peace to come and that should be made worthy of the spirit of true Canadianism, which it will typify to the world and of which Ontario is admittedly the foremost eivie expon- ent, In the rehabilitation of Vimy, On- tario has an unique epportunity un- ostentatiously to attraet to herself, as well as her French godchild, the admiring attention of the world, and to benefit thereby in proportion to the degree of scientific intelligence displayed in such rebuilding. The ancient village being completely razed, occasion is afforded for its re- construction upon the most approved | modern lines. The Vimy that is to] rise from the grave of the old vill- age as Ontario's ward should be, in- deed, the madern village of France and of all Europe. Just at present Ontario must do much for Vimy.

A good cough remedy is one that can be de pended upon to cure coughs. Not one that cures some particular cough, but coughs in general While the causes of all coughs are primarily the same yet the condition of the patient is what makes the difference in the nature of the cough itself. Coughs of healthy persons are easier to cure than the coughs of invalids. The more powerful convulsive cough of a big man is harder to cure than the cough of a baby. If you get a remedy that will cure a big man's cough and yet not be too powerful for the baby, you have a good cough remedy, Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is just this kind of remedy. It is good for any member of the family. It relieves coughs of all kinds. It is composed of things which cure easily and soothingly without harming the delicate tissues of the throat, and is the ideal remedy for coughs, colds, croup, influenza and whooping cough, fours fr PAL Gan) Clim The SAFEST MATCHES in the WORLD Also the Cheapest! -- are EDDY'S "SILENT 500'S" Safest because they are impregnated with a chemical solu tion which renders the stick "dead" immediately the match is extinguished Cheapest, because there are more perfect matches to the sized box than in any other box on the niarket.
