ROBINSON, Auctioneer, Colborne Muriel Watson used to worry about Bob's frequent trips to the "raw edges of civilization"--to mining towns and construction camps where life was rough and comforts few.

"After all", he muses, "you're never out of civilization as long as you have the telephone." n telephone rates--local and long n 1935, '36 and '37 have effected savings to telephone users in Ontario and Quebec of nearly one million dollars yearly. long *1 cted I X J Theobald's Savings Store GROCERY SERVICE STATION Gas -- Oil -- Grease -- Coal Oil OUR PRICES ARE LOWEST Give Us a Trial and Be Convinced Phone 132j - Magazine Subscriptions We are Subscription Agents for all LEADING CANADIAN, ENGLISH AND AMERICAN PERIODICALS Also Foreign Ones most likely to be asked for GET OUR CLUBBING OFFERS ! Reduced Rates on Any Combination of Magazines THE EXPRESS Phone 44 Printing Office Doesn't It Pay? Occasionally some one gives us this ae: "Advertising doesn't pay. It takes all the profits of the sales to pay for it. Everybody knows where our store is and if you satisfy people they will tell others, and that is the best advertisement of all." That has been said so often to advertising salesmen all over the world that it has become commonplace to them. But the facts are far different. Every product known widely and sold widely to-day is advertised all the time. On the other hand, every product which formerly sold in large volume after its promoter ceased to advertise it. For example, take the sale of citrus fruit in California and in Florida. We read to-day that in 1908 the crops were very large. The orange growers faced bankruptcy. Two schools of thought prevailed. One said that things are so bad we can't change them. The other said that things are bad they can't be worse. An advertising campaign was started and the sales were doubled. In the thirty year period consumption of oranges ias increased from 3(1 per capita to '9 per capita. The public has been educated to drink oranges as well as to eat them, to make them an indispensable part of salads and other appetizers, to use them in desserts. Citrus fruits and health diets have me synonymous. Advertising did it.--iPicton Gazette. United States people have invested $3,630,000,000 in the Dominion of Canada, so it's no wonder President Roosevelt said they'de be ready to fight if any foreign power tried to dominate this land. Fishermen speeded up sturgeon fishing in Siberian rivers before win-caused the water to freeze. Canadian Revenue Down Four Millions in October Ottawa Nov. 6th.--Total ordinary revenue of the Dominion government in October was $34,496,675, compared with $38,680,462 in October, 1937, according to figures released Saturday by the comlptiroller of the treasurey. Special receipts brought the grand total to $34,587,371, against $38,833,-(174. Total ordinary revenue for the first seven mouths of the present fiscal year, starting April 1, was $321,473,-662, against $318,896,931 in the corresponding period the previous fiscal year. Special receipts increased the total to $$321,874,0129, compared with $319,7'57,140 for the previous seven months. Poisonous to Livestock Ergot, bracken, horsetail, darnel, purple cockle, locowood, and water hemlock are the principal weeds which are poisonous also to cattle, sheep and poultry. Swine seem to be immune to ergot but darnel, purple cockle and water hemlock are poisonous 'to them. There are many other poison weeds. For example, larkspur, cursed crowfoot, poison hemlock, water hemlock, water parsnip, laurel, white snakeroot and ragwort are also poisonous to cattle, and in addition, death camas, pasque flower and lupne have been responsibe for the deaths of sheep in Canada. The human brain is exceeded in size only by those of the elephants and some of the larger whales. It is announced that Waterloo County's new registry office will be the first bombproof building in Canada. The defence preparations appear to be spreading to the municipalities.
