THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT., THURSDAY, MAY 17, 1928 RHEUMATIC PAINS DUE TO THIN BLOOD Relief Comes Through the Use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The most a rheumatic sufferer can hope for in rubbing something on the swollen, aching joints is a little relief, and all the while the trouble is becoming more firmly rooted. It is now ; known that rheumatism is rooted in 1 the blood, and that as the trouble goes on the blood becomes still further thin and watery. To get rid of rheumatism, therefore, you must go to the root of the trouble in the blood. That 1 is why Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have proved so beneficial when taken for Ihis trouble. They make new, rich blood which expels the poisonous acid and the rheumatism disappears. There are thousands of former rheumatic sufferers in Canada, now well and strong, who thank Dr. Williams' Pink Pills that they are now free from the aches and pains of this dreaded trouble. One of these, Mrs. W. F. Talt, McKellar, Ont., who says: -- "I am one of the willing ones to tell you of the great benefit I received from the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. After lying in bed for seven weeks suffering untold agony with inflammatory rheumatism, relief finally came through the use of this medicine. I could not move in bed only as they lifted me, and T could only sleep when opiates were given me. The medical treatment I was taking seemed of no avail. Then I was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and Boon I began to get relief. After taking six or eight box*s the rheumatism was banished and I had never felt better in my life. It Is several years since this happened and I have had no return of the trouble since. I may add that 1 recommended the pills to two of my friends who were suffering with rheumatism and the pills were equally effective in both cases." Try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for anaemia, rheumatism, neuralgia, indigestion or nervousness. Take them as a tonic If you are not in the best physical condition and cultivate a resistance that will keep you well and Btrong. You can get these pills through any medicine dealer or by mail at 50c a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Hawaii To Celebrate Discovery of Islands Honolulu--The Cook sesqulcenten-nial celebration planned by residents of the Territory of Hawaii for Aug. 15 to 20 to commemorate the discovery of the Sandwich Islands in 1778 by the great English navigator will not stop with a mere marking of the cryptic cycle of 150 years since the ships of i the British voyager dropped anchor ln the bay of Waimea, Kauai. In addition to ceremonies prepared for Waimea, the landing point; Keal-akekua, Hawaii, the spot where Captain James Cook was killed, and Honolulu, the celebration will give to the world In a series of addresses by eminent scholars and authorities on political, diplomatic, commercial, geographical and maritime sciences the results of what might be styled the "timely arrival" of the explorer. The revised scheme is the broader conception of the original plan to note merely the anniversary of the discovery of the islands by the civilized world. An invitation committee has been appointed composed of Bruce Cartwright, student of all things Hawaiian; the Right Rev. Henry Bond Restarick, Bishop Emeritus of Honolulu's Episcopal diocese; Dr. Herbert E. Gregory, director o* the Bishop Museum^ and Albert Pierce Taylor, keeper of the archives. Letters hav« been forwarded to the British Government suggesting topics and the names of men who might prepare addresses on these subjects. Similar action hag been taken in regard to the Government of the United States. The subjects which it is hoped to discuss will involve Hawaii and foreign influences ln the Pacific during the last 150 years, as regards England, Prance, Spain, Russia and the United States. The Governments of New Zealand and Canada have been asked to participate. The commissioners have completed plans for a week's celebration, with the exception of the exact details. That portion at Waimea will be carried on by residents of the island and will Include the dedication of a Cook monument at the point where Cook and his men first stepped ashore. include <!-ion i Bathtub Cars Henry Ford watched pensively, last week, while a line of motor cars no bigger than bathtubs moved briskly toward completion in the huge, humming plant of Morris Motors Ltd., at cowiey, England. Because there is a crushing British 'ax on engines of Ford dimensions, the tiny and lightly taxed Morris-Cow-leys are bought in preference to Fords by thrifty Britons. Through minute after minute Henry Ford watched the swift, straight line of bathtub cars with a fascinated gaze. "You English," he observed at last, "are further ahead here than most Americans realize." Formal entertainment proffered last week to the visiting Motor Man included a luncheon given by-David Lloyd George in the Members' Resturant of the House of Commons. "My goodness!" said Mr. Ford, later, of Mr. George, "how that man can ask questions about Am- guests and visiting officials to the Captain Cook monument, a tiny patch of British soil beside the blue i bay where he saw the last of his life.

Old Chicken Dishes Spring chickens are still too high priced to serve frequently, but don't have the older ones always plain stewed. Try some of these unusual ways of cooking. In Florida th*y have a delicious way of adding cocoanut to stewed chicken. Prepare the chicken as for any stew and boil gently in water to cover until tender, about three hours. Have ready a pint of young spinach, measured after cooking. Grate a medium-sized cocoanut or take its equivalent in the fresh canned, pour over It a pint and a half of milk and let it stand twenty minutes, then put through a sieve. Add the spinach to the chicken, let boil five minutes, then add the cocoanut milk and boll up once. Remove from the fire and add pepper and salt to taste, the latter last, to prevent any danger of curdling. Sprinkle some of the drained cocoa-nut over the top and serve. Another splendid chicken dish is made by boiling a large chicken in just enough water to cover it until it is tender. Remove It from the fire and add to the water in which It was cooked two minced onions, one tablespoon of chopped red pepper, half a can of tomatoes and salt and pepper to taste. Cook this down until thick. Stuff the chicken with mashed potatoes, moistened with gravy and two tablespoons of raisins mixed with the potato. Have you ever tried a Yankee pot roasted chicken with cranberries? Prepare a three-pound chicken as for roasting, brown it first in three tablespoons of hot fat. Remove from the pan and add three cups of water, stir until boiling, then add two cups of cranberry sauce made less sweet than usual. (Canned sauce Is available the year around.) Replace the chicken in the pan with this gravy-sauce, cover and proceed ln the ordinary way, adding salt and pepper to taste when cooking is half finished. Fricassee chicken with asparagus sauce is especially delightful. Boil the fowl until tender, adding a bit of chopped celery while cooking. Cut ln neat pieces for boiling, discarding all bones, and put into a double boiler to keep hot. For the sauce blend two tablespoons of butter and two of flour, add one pint of chicken stock, a slice of onion, a small slice of carrot, one bay leaf, a tiny bit of mace, a sprig of parsley and salt and pepper to taste. Heat slowly, stirring. When heated to boiling set back and simmer twenty minutes. Put the tender green heads from a bunch of asparagus In a cup of boiling water with half a teaspoon of salt and half a teaspoon of lemon Juice. Cover, boil twelve minutes, drain, rub through sieve, combine with the other part of the sauce and heat to boiling point and serve over the fowl.

It seems that recently a line of buses was put on the road that passes in front of the residence of Rudyard Kipling. This was unpleasant enough, but Kipling is a public-spirited citizen and made no complaint. But one day an auto-bus smashed off a branch from one of Mr. Kipling's trees. Then he wrote a letter of protest to the proprietor of the bus line. No response. Soon afterward another branch was broken off. Another letter from the author of "Mandalay." No response. Mr. Kipling wrote again. And somebody "put him wise." The bus proprietor is an eager autograph collector. MISTAKES MOTHERS MAKE IN CARS OF LITTLE ONES Many mothers give their children solid foods at too early an age and say proudly that their babies "eat everything that grown up people do." Such a course is almost certain to bring on indigestion and lay the foundation of much ill-health for the little one. Other mothers administer harsh, nauseating purgatives which In reality irritate and injure the delicate stomach and bowels and at the same time cause the children to dread all medi- j Absolutely no meat should be given to a child until it reaches the age ol 18 months, and then only if approved j by the doctor. For medicine, all strong, disagreeable oils and powders should be abandoned and Baby's Own Tablets given instead. Baby's Own Tablets are especially made for little ones. They are pleasant to take and can be given with absolute safety to even the new-born babe. They quickly banish constipation and Indigestion, break up colds and simple fevers and make the cutting of teeth easy. They are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

Wilkins Plane Was Ideal for Job Murray Bay, P.Q.--The flight across e top of th world by Captain George H. Wilkins, which was achieved with phenomenal success recently brings to the attention of persons interested ln aviation a plane about which little is known. The Lockheed ship which the Australian explorer selected for his ven-s designed and developed on the Pacific Coast. Planes of this design have attracted much attention in California and Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh, during his recent visit on the coast, flew one of them. Marked By Efficiency The plane Is characterized by its extreme lightness in design, its turdiness and the efficiency with I'hich the general trim of the ship has >een marked.

Baby specialists agree nowadays, that during the first six months, babies must have three ounces of fluid per pound of body weight daily. An >i:;ht | pound baby, for instance, needs twsn-. ty-four ounces of fluid. Later on the rule is two ounces or fluid per pound of body weight. The amount of fluid absorbed by a breast fed baby is best determined by weighing him before and after feeding for the whole day; and it is easily calculated for the bottle fed one. Then make up any deficiency with water. Giving baby sufficient water often relieves his feverish, crying, upset and j restless spells. If it doesn't, give him a few drops of Fletcher's Castoria. For these and other ills of babies and children suoh as colic, cholera, diarrhea, gas on stomach and bowels, constipation, sour stomach, loss of sleep, underweight, etc., leading physicians say there's nothing so effective. It is purely vegetable--the recipe is on the wrapper--and millions of mothers have depended on It in over thirty years of ever Increasing use. It regulates baby's bowels, makes him sleep and eat right, enables him to get full nourishment from his food, so he increases in weight as he he should. With each package you get a book on Motherhood worth its weight in gold. Just a word of caution. Look for the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher on the package so you'll be sure to get the genuine.
