THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT., THURSDAY, JULY 28, 1927. DEBILITY DUE TO INDIGESTION Perfect Digestion Comes Through Rich, Red Blood There can be no perfect digestion unless you have rich, red blood. This Is scientifically true. It is also true that there is no tonic for the stomach that is not a tonic for every other part of the body. The way, then, to tone up the stomach is to tone up the The many so-called stomach remedies merely try to digest your food for you. How much better it is to tone up the stomach so that it will do its own work as nature intended. There is no pleasure in eating predi-gested food. Tone up your stomach and your appetite and digestion will If your digestion is weak and your blood thin you need the help of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to enrich the blood and restore strength. In addition use care in the selection of your food and your stomach trouble will soon pass away. Mr. Gordon Dundas, Peterboro, Ont., tells as follows what this medicine did for him. He says: "Something over a year ago I wal a gasoline salesman when I was taken sick. I felt very miserable and lost twelve pounds in weight. I did not sleep well and could not eat as I could scarcely retain anything in my stomach. I went to a local doctor who told me the fumes of the gas had got into my system. He gave me some medicine and told me I had better go to the country for a change of air. I did so, but I still felt restless and groggy, and had no ambition. On the advice of a friend I decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I had not been taking the pills long before I was beginning to rest better, and to eat fairly well. I kept on taking the pills until at the end of the seventh box I knew I did not need any more, as I had gained the weight I had lost, slept well and could eat anything. I have since had splendid health and cannot say too much in praise of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. You can get these Pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cts. a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. "I swill not use tobacco," Said little Robert Reed.

Rare Gases Now Work for Man. New Uses Are Rapidly Being Discovered for Parts of the Air We Breathe--Helium in Flying and Diving rSPfcGTACLES On 30 Days' Trial Send No Money -- Perfect Sallsfaction Guarantee In advertising signs that have recently appeared on the. streets of American cities and in the apparatus that builds up the animated picture in the television process, the orange-red .glow of the neon tube arrests attention and aroused curiosity. For the moment neon is the most discussed of the so-called "rare gases," though some of the others are of greater economic importance and all are likely to bring about new sensations in the future Their discovery was the greatest sensation of all. For generations chemists had supposed there was nothing more to be learned about the composition of the atmosphere. In 1894, when Lord Rayleigh and Sir William Ramsay found argon, they thought at first it was merely a modified form of nitrogen. Even now it is hard to understand how this gas, which forms nearly 1 per cent, of the air we breathe, could have escaped detection so long. During the succeeding four years Ramsay and other chemists demon- •ated that four more previously unrecognized gases occur in the atmosphere--all, however, in extremely small quantities as compared with argon. One of these, helium, was not actually new to science. It had been discovered with the spectroscope as a constituent of the sun back in 1868, but had not previously been located on earth. It forms only 0.0005 per cent, of the air of the earth by vol- Of the other gases discovered by Ramsay and his associates, neon is present in the air to the trifling extent of 0.0018 per ce'nt., krypton 0.0001 per c product of the more important industry of producing oxygen. Before the year 1918 helium was so scarce a commodity that it was valued at about $2,000 a cubic foot and probably not more than 100 cubic feet of it had been extracted from all sources throughout the world. Scientific interest in it centred in efforts to liquefy and freeze it; in its remarkably high electric conductivity, and in spectroscopic evidence of its abundance in the sun, stars and nebulae. Next to hydrogen it is the lightest substance known. Like the other rare gases, it has practically chemical affinity for other substances (though within the last three years it has been made to combine with mercury under special laboratory ditions). Helium in Airships. As helium will not combine with oxygen, it is non-combustible. The idea of using it as a substitute for the dangerously inflammable gas hydrogen in filling balloons and airships occurred to British wartime chemists. The fact was recalled that as early as 1907 it had been found latively abundant in certain deposits of natural gas in this country. Experimental plants for extracting it were opened in the United States and Can- The subsequent operations of the largo helium production plant maintained by the U.S. Government at Fort Worth, Texas, and the use of this gas for filling the airships Shenandoah and Los Angeles, are developments with which the public is familiar. Besides non-inflammability, it offers the advantage over hydrogen that it does not diffuse through the gas cell so Traces of ' rapidly. Its lifting force is about 93 per cent, that of hydrogen. Two years ago another use for helium was found, and this now promises to be as valuable as its use In aeronoutics. Men engaged in deep sea diving and caisson work breathe air compressed to three or four times its normal density. The air is dissolved in the blood, and when the pressure is removed tends to form bubbles which bring on the distress-ink and often fatal malady known as caisson disease, or "the bends."

Helium is extracted from natural gas. Rare Gases Utilized.

The helium replaces nitrogen, which forms about four-fifths of the air and is of no direct value in respiration. This "synthetic atmosphere" is much less readily dissolved by the blood than is air and comes more quickly out of solution. It was successfully used last Autumn by the U.S. navy divers who salvaged the S-51, sunk by the City of Rome in Long Island Sound. NO BETTER MEDICINE FOR LITTLE ONES Is What Thousands of Mothers Say of Baby's Own Tablets. A medicine for the baby or growing child--one that the mother can feel assured is absolutely safe as well as efflcent--is found in Baby's Own Tablets. The Tablets are praised by thousands of mothers throughout the country. These mothers have found by actual experience that there is no other medicine for little ones to equal them. Once a mother has used them for her children she will use nothing else. Concerning them Mrs. Charles Hutt, Tancook Island, N.S., writes: "I have ten children, the baby being just six months old I have used Baby's Own Tablets for them for the past 20 years, and can truthfully say that I know of no better medicine for little ones. I always keep a box of the Tablets in the house and would advise all other mothers to do so." Baby's Own Tablets are sold by all medicine dealers or will be mailed upon receipt of price, 25 cents per box, by The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

It is getting people out of doors to a far greater extent than was possible in the days when the railroad was the only means of extended travel. "Each year," says Mr. Jason, ' camps are being formed to meet the demands of the thousands of motorists who take to the trails. Most of these camps are equipped with every modern convenience, but if you don't wish to camp at all you may simply travel in your car from plai place and be assured that you a d a comfortable tourist inn or hot the end of each day's drive.

The Storage of Home Canned Products The storage place for home preserved fruits and vegetables should be cool, dark and dry. Heat favors the growth of bacteria, light causes fading, while dampness furthers the growth of moulds and even causes rust on the metal fastenings of the glass jars. These and other pointers for the housekeeper are given in a new bulletin of the Dominion Department of Agriculture on preserving Fruits and Vegetables in the home. When dark storage is not available the jars should ae wrapped in paper to exclude the ight. When canned vegetable pro-lucts are removed from the jar after .torage it is a wise precaution to boil them a few minutes. When they are e used cold, as fcr salads," they may be set aside after boiling and chilled before use. The Colonial Empire London Observer (Ind.)--The Col-lial Empire has an area of two million square miles, a population of fifty millions. Though we have, in Lord Milner's measured words, "neglected nd starved" them, the trade between the United Kingdom and this great section of the Empire has trebled in past twenty years. If the whole force of finance and science at. our command could be organized to bear upon that connection, the trading figures could be trebled again. The modern colonial system has stood the political test. Britain has to justify it henceforth by the economic test. own interests require it; the world, with its growing interest in market* and raw materials, expects and the advancement of the peo-5 under her rule is a mere aspira-i without it.

Gum-Dipping A Firestone Contribution to Economical Travel The greatest enemy to tire life is not the chopped-up road, the broken pavement or the harsh grind of rough city streets--but heat, which is created ' by internal friction. Heat not only weakens the fabric, but also softens the the rubber and causes blowouts and tire failures. Firestone chemists and engineers knew that if they could find a way to eliminate this destructive heat and internal friction, the mileage-giving qualities of tires would be greatly increased. Such a method was found and called "Gum-Dipping." The Gum-Dipping process is one of Firestone's contributions to economical travel--in insulates and impregnates every fiber of every cord with rubber, reducing internal friction and at the same time binding the cords together by a stronger union of rubber, thus giving greater strength and flexibility to the tire. Firestone dealers everywhere--familiar with Gum-Dipping and its advantages --will gladly explain how thousands of extra miles are built into Firestone tires by this exclusive method. Take advantage of the Gum-Dipping process to lower your tire costs this year.
