THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT., THURSDAY, SEPT. 22, 1927 THE TONIC THAT GTVESSTRENGTH After Acute Diseases the Blood Must be Built Up Before Recovery is Complete. Fevers and other acute diseases like pneumonia and influenza, leave the patient weak, with thin blood and strung nerves. The period of i valescence is often long and trying, and years of poor health have frequently followed so brief an illness as an attack of influenza or pneumonia. Much of this sort of misery could be avoided by taking steps to" build up the blood so that it can carry to the nerves and other tissues of the body the elements they need to restore their normal functional activities. To build up the blood and restore it to its rich, health-giving vigor, no other medicine can equal Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Prom first to last it is their mission to improve the blood and thus restore good health and vigor. The value of these pills in conditions described above is shown by the statement of Mrs. Rebecca O'Brien, Pembroke, Ont, who says:-»-"In Nov., 1923, I was stricken with pneumonia, und at the time but little hope was held out for my recovery. However, with the best of care I was able to walk about after some months. But I did not recover my strength. The doctor told me I was anaemic. My appetite was poor, I grew nervous and restless, I was deathly pale and practically gave up hope of ever being strong again. However, remembering that in my girlhood I had taken Dr. Williams' Pink Pills with decided success, I decided to try them again. By the time I had used two boxes there was no doubt the pills were helping me. Continuing their use I was soon able to attend to my household duties. I continued taking the pills, however, until I had used twelve boxes, by which time I was enjoying better health than at any time in the previous ten years. In gratitude for what the pills have done for me, I give this statement in th» hope that it may point the way to health to some other weak, despondent woman." 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.

Mothers everywhere who have used Baby's Own Tablets for their children speak in enthusiastic terms of them. For instance, Mrs. Zepterin Lavoie, Three Rivers, Que., writes:--"Baby's Own Tablets are a wonderful medicine for little ones. They never fail to regulate the baby's stomach' and bowels, and make him plump and well. I always keep a of the Tablets in the house and would advise all mothers to do likewise. Most of the ordinary ailments of childhood arise in the stomach and bowels, can be quickly banished by Baby's Own Tablets.

Simply Told Dr. MacMurchy is to be congratulated upon the simplicity and clearness of the language with which she tells her story of how to care for young Canadians. Dr. MacMurchy used to be teacher of Literature in the Old Grammar School or Jarvis Collegiate Institute in Toronto and well does the reviewer remember how colloquialisms and Popular expressions were frowned upon by the Doctor when she endeavored to teach him the rudiments of the English language. The Doctor, a master of English, has worded her book in the simplest id where populi the baby," picking up the darling," "cuddling the little pet" is past and Dr. MacMurchy h;is stressed the point so often forgotten that the first year of a baby's life is made up of sleep, food and bath. The reviewer's personal experience, arrived at through watching and helping his better half raise a fair sned family fully confirms the Doctor's methods.

To stress the important points Dr. MacMurchy has resorted to repetetion so that any one seriously wanting to benefit by her instruction cannot possibly fail to have her truths driven home. She has written, for good of the great mass of Canadian women in average circum-ances. Her simple, direct and inti-ate language proves her as great a aster of English as o' pbyscology.

This job of trampling in the silo is one of the most disagreeable ones on the farm, and the good wages demanded adds quite a little to the cost of filling the silo. The high cost and scarity of labor led a number of farmers in diffeffrent sections of the'eountry to try the plan of filling without trampling, and several have used it the last three or four years with perfect success. Many claim that there is less loss- from spoilage in silos filled this way, than under the old plan of two or three men trampling down the silage. By not trampling the silage, and us>-ing a small ensilage cutter and tractor, and a binder with bundle-loading at- j tachment, a farmer and his hired or boys can fill the silo without extra j help, greatly reducing the cost and I labor of filling the silo. The advocates of the non-trampling j an recommended cutting the silage I one-fourth-inch lengths, adding j enty of water if the corn is frosted j id dry, and directing the filler pipe at . e centre of the silo, allowing the j isilage to fill up in a conical shaped pile, the center tending to pus'i down id out, packing the ensilage tightly :d eliminating air spaces. Experiments carried on at some of the agricultural experiment stations ate that these farmers are right, and that where the silage is cut rather 3 and made rather wet, that there little, if any, more spoiled silage than with the older and more costly method. It is important that the silage be quite damp, so that water can squeezed out of a handful, that the > not be filled too rapidly, and that it bo refilled after settling. Also, it is recommended that the top two or three feet be even wetter than the average, and be tramped well.--I.W. Classified Advertisements SITUATIONS vacant letter only.
