PINE GROVE CEMETERY MEETING The annual meeting of the shareholders of the Ontario Pine Grove Cemetery Company was held in the Treasurer's Of- fice on Monday, the 21st inst. 'The auditors' report showed that the total amount received by the treasurer was $2134.51, but $600. was received for per- petual care of individual plots, leaving a working balance of $1537.61. The total expenditure in connection with the upkeep of the cemetery for 1923 was $1552.92, making the expendi- tures $165.41 more than the re- ceipts, The Directors for 1924 are: John Jeffrey, W.L. Parrish, S. Jeffrey, J. Stonehouse, Peter Christie, W.H: McCaw, J. Rolph, A. W. Allin and M. Campbell. At the Directors' meeting, J. | Jeffrey was re-elected President, J. Rolph, secretary, J. Stone- house, treasurer and assistant secretary. House and grounds committee are: W. L. Parrish, M. Campbell and the President. A committee was appointed to revise the by-laws, which is made necessary by a decision to increase the charges for the care of plots and other charges. A large share of the income which is used-for the upkeep of the cemetery is derived from the sale of lots and which must necessarily cease in the near future when the lots are all sold, and the Directors see that the income for upkeep must be put on some permanent basis. All money paid in for perpetual care is required by law to be invested in Government security and only the interest can be used for the care of the lots. scale of payments for perpetual care is to be changed from $50 for one to four lots to $35 for 1 lot, $45. for 2 lots, $55 for 3 lots, $60. for 4 lots, and $56 for each additional lot. The annual charge for lots not under per- petual care will be 5 per cent. on the above amountsi.e--b cent on $35. would be $1.75 for a single lot of 10 x 10 feet, per annum; $2.25 for 2 lots and so on up. These rates will be made imperative in the future and the caretaker has beeh instructed to see that all arrears for care of lots must be paid before any further interments are made. The cemetery has been made a beautiful place in which to lay away our loved ones but it now requires a large sum to be ex- pended for stirs re ch hy past year one tem {of During $160.00 was received | not be d and used for, abo.

Clarens Ave., 'l'oronto, was a victim ofchronic constipation and all the distressing symptoms that follow this unhealthy condition of the bowels. Dreco, how- ever, brought immediate relief and toned up his whole system. "For some time, "says Mr, Mould, | suffered' from gas in the stomach, which caused bleating and heartburn. My bowels were terribly sonstipated and I had to continually take harsh laxatives. Headaches bothered me greatly and 1 would get up in the mornings, tired and drowsy after a night of restless tossing about in bed. Fipally, a pain developed in my right side, just over the appendix and with it came a lump. This was so dis-|g tressing at times that I could hardly | sa carry on with my work. 'My appetite became very poor and I could hardly eat a think, the result being that my , F. A. system became greatly weakened | eg through lact of proper nourishment. "It was then that I learned about Dreco and decided to try it. I have only taken four bottles, but my pains have disappeared. .My bowels act regularly, I have a good appetite and sleep soundly. Dreco has certainly done me a whole lot of good." If you suffer from headaches, stomach pains, sluggishness and are generally out of sorts, Dreco will help ybu.. This fine tonie and cor- rective relieves constipation, the prime cause of most of these troubles and strengthens and regulates the liver, kidneys and stomach as well. Dreco is prepared from herbs, roots, bark, leaves and contains no mercury, potash or habit forming "drugs. Dreco is being specially introduced in Port Perry by P. G. Morrison, and sold by a good druggist everywhere. Lee CHEMICAL .EXTINGUISHER| A NEEDED.
