HER HANDS WERE ALL OUT OF SHAPE In Grip of Rheumatism for 15 Years Here is a letter which shows valfce of persevering with Kruschen: -- "For about two years I hardly went out, it was such a painful effort to walk owing to rheumatism. My hands and feet were the worst affected. * was unable to walk without a cane, read so much about Kruschen, I d cided to try it. I was three months before I felt any better, but I kept and since then I have been line and never used the cane. My hands were all out of shape, but they are almost normal now Of course I could no pect to get bettor all at once, as I had suffered foi IE years before 1 started on Kruschen.-'--(Miss) A. L. Rheumatism is frequently caused by an excess of uric acid in the blood. If you could see how Kruschen dulls " these uric acid deposits, then dissolves them away altogether, you would agrc that the Kruschen treatment should bring relief in cases of rheumatism. Points Out Need Of Reforestaton SIMCOE--What is all this about "conservation?" What has reforestation and tree planting to do ' floods, drought am. soil erosion? swers gathered from prominent in Norfolk County, where refore tion has gained considerable headway, go far to answering these (juestions. Monroe Landon, Norfolk County Chamber of Commerce, chairman considered conservation from its economic and aesthetic side. "All objective of a reforestatio; scheme are not yet clear." said Mi Landon, "Life today is a survival of woodland environment. That environment requires moisture. Forces interlocked to provide mutual helpful effects until we destroyed our forests. Rivers irrigate 1 the land, trees stored The i Ug property v: Act. said Mr : far a concerned. The forestry taxation was oeguii hen it was desirable to have land cleared and in the days when a small amount purchased valuable- timber from which revenue could be derived. Trees are taxed for 40 years, their crop life. 'Municipal Drainage Act needs looking into," he said. According to law a man with swamp land could demand that bis neighbour provide him with a outlet so that he could drain his swamp, thereby destroying the thing which irrigated against drought. What to do about it all? Mr. Landon said consideration might be given to legislation which would zone the province and provide a forester for each zone. Regulations could be made which would require permission before trees were cut; and replacements should be made in most cases. The Norfolk Chamber of Commerce president has taken only part of his ideas from books. Much of his Information on nature science has been gained first hand. He has a case filled with thousands of botanical speci collected by himself. His two greenhouses are his hobby. Here, one is surrounded by strange plants. Bananas have grown here. Rougainvillea, a Mexican red-flowering vine, was in full bloom a few day: ago. Mr. Landon displayed a mon stera deliciosa, strange palm-like plant, with weird roots which branched off into snakey tendrils. Besides farming, including raising of purebred stock, Mr. Landon goes in for nature study photography and •ving. ed a child who has behaved so well as yours."

They are Harold Ohlgran, 28, no-\ an assistant in the physic; department of the University of Minnesota, and William H. Mahle, who is. doing research in chemical engineering. At an interview the two inventors discussed their plans for bringing the farmer all the comforts of city life by means of three acres of clover would, they e. Luated, cost $26 a year for cooking and heating after an tial outlay of $500 foi the apparatus which converts clover into gas. Ohygran and Mahle toid of the problem their chemistry professor had given them as freshmen. An attempt to extract pyroligenous acid from cellulose was co great a failure they reconstructed all their apparatus and then discovered all they were obtaining was gas. For three years they worked on their discovery and, in the course of it, discovereu a new method of extracting gas from coal which they believe is cheaper and Bjotanists Serve Public of Canada Advice On Plant Disease, Insects i Given by Department iLike every other branch of the Dominion Department of Agriculti the plant pathological service o* Division of Botany is at the disposal of the people of Canada, particularly farmers.

Mr. Gravell tjfWiibcs to the axiom that it is his cir.pJoyces who make his business successful; .and that it really paid him to have happy workers because they gave better service, therefore, he was really making a good investment by paying off their house Krtgages. car debts, grocery hills and the rest. Ho paid one debt of $7,000 and another of $6,500 and many smaller sums. To those who were not in debt, he gave small sums of money, as low as $10, according to length of service. Mr. Graveli's theory is right that a man who has no debts pressing upon him makes a good worker because he has no worries, but his own generosity is a bit distorted. If he made the shiftless workers-- some would have been just unfortunate-happy he would quite likely by the same action make the fellows who had scraped to pay their obligations as the.\ went, discontented. They probably denied themselves thing's they might have bought for their $wn or their family's convenience and pleasure. . But they cut their eoats according to their cloth and because they could not afford certain things they went without. Now they find they might just as well have had everything they fancied because their employer would have paid the bills. There will probably be a good deal of grumbling around the Gravell factory. Charity is a good thing, but it has to be handed out with great discrimination and care. Further discoveries have been made near the Sphinx, including another stele--an upright slab or pillar--inscribed with hieroglyphics giving interesting information about the Sphinx, and two dainty feet, on a pedestal. Ventures controls excellent mining enterprises in Quebec, Ontario and Manitoba, and has important interests in the North West areas. Premier Gold has, in addition to British Columbia ind Ontario interests, a very important investment in Australia. Towagmac Exploration has interests in copper, silver, gold, lead and zinc, through Its important holdings in Al-dermac Copper, Francoeur Gold and Lake Geneva Mines. Royalite is a safe medium among the oil holding companies. Market interest, however, is still concentrated on the developing gold properties. The public memory is still fresh with the spectacular movement In Moneta shares, following dia mond drilling results. Federal Kirk-land, with one drill started an,' a second ready to begin, is being watched with great interest. The proximity of its adjoining neighbors--Sylvanite, To burn and Continental Kirkland is the reason. Jellicoe -- in the Little Long Lac Camp -- has reported what promises to be a very interesting development, according to diamond dril-ling indications. Its rich ore discovery is of importance, not only to Jellicoe, but promises much for Bank-field and Magnet Lake. Hutchison Lake should provide market news at an early date. Shaft sinking is nearing the first level. Smelter Gold should provide news from its diamond drilling campaign, already started. nderground work on the Kerr Addison and Martin Bird properties in the Larder Lake District of Ontario is creating a big public following for' ese issues.

Difficulties of British Films The motion picture industry in the British Isles is confronted with difficulties, observes the Gait Reporter. It lost $10,000,000 last year and three independent concerns have been forced into receivership. Liabilities of three companies are said to total $3,000,000. The critcism of the motion picture business in Britain refers to fantastic salaries, attempts to turn our colored masterpieces and competition with Hollywood in world markets. It is said that the future of the business is not promising unless drastic changes in policies are undertaken. It would appear to be a difficult task to bring the motion picture down i earth because of the superlative aditions associated therewith. In the American field, it is the custom exaggerate in every detail relating pictures. The word colossal is rn thread bare in describing productions and the idea gets into all iccessories. It is habitual to brag about the salaries paid the people ho, in many cases, by freaks of luck, have been able to create a pub-mpression. It is not infrequent a restaurant dish-washer be-;s the toast of the picture stage.
