~â€""Two years ago," he writes, "I was suddenly taken with rheumatism, all down my left arm. I tried many things â€"â€" all to no purpose. I then comâ€" menced taking a halfâ€"teaspooful of Kruschen Salts every morning, and soon felt benefit. My arm, which was painful and nearly useless, to my asâ€" tonishment is now, after a few weeks‘ treatment, quite better. I am more than pleased, as I am a pianist, and playing made matters worse. I am just entering my 80th year, and am in good health.‘"â€"G.L.A.

They also restore the climatâ€" ing organs to proper working order, and so prevent constipation, thereby checking the further formation of uric acid and other body poisons which undermine the health. .0.

While the cause of the origin of the fire is given as "unknown‘" there is a strong suspicion of deliberats> incgndarism. It is understood that Mayor J. A. Stewart has asked Fire Marshal Heaton of Toronts for an inâ€" vestigat.on, and this is being carried on at present. Three months ago anâ€" other fire destroyed part of the same section. Owing to there being no waterworks in the old townsite it is very difficult to fight fire there. In Friday‘s fire the following places were completely destroyed:â€"Mayor Stewart‘s residence, valued at $10,000; A. Husâ€" band‘s general store; the Kapuskasing hotel; A. Sower‘s shoe store; H.
