THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT., THURSDAY, SEPT. 6, 1928 Fights for Life in Manitoba Woods Lost Man Faces Hunger and Fatigue and Wins Through warmthIn water Makes Bed of Moss and Boughs by Side of Lake The Pas, Man.--How he fought death during one of the 46 nights he wandered lost in the northern wilderness was told here by Andy Taylor while .slowly winning back his strength In the Pas hospital. Drenched and chilled by an all-day rain, nearly dead from hunger and r-posure, Taylor dug himself a hole the ground for a bed--a bed that he felt might he his grave when the next day dawned. "I had walked many miles that day through a pouring rain," he stated from his hospital cot. "As ni.sht come on I knew I could go no further. My clothes--what was left of them--were soaked. The wind was cold ana raw. To stop meant perishing of cold. I was completely exhausted. Staggering up and down, beating my arms for warmth, I tried to think of a plan to weather the terrible night. "I felt the water in the lake. It seemed warm In comparison with the wet and cold. I slid into the black water and found it pleasant for a few moments. Then it got cold. I fhiver-ed there under the water, and my teeth chattered fit to shake them out of my mouth. "I swam around a bit and felt warm again. Whenever I stopped I became numb. I knew I could never last until morning. I dragged myself from the water into a grove of spruce. Some of the dirt close to the trees was dry. With my bare hands I dug a hole between the roots big enough to lie in and more than a foot deep. • "Then I gathered up the drj di around other tree trunks and ji ed beside the hole. Although the mo was wet I got a big pile of it and sor spruce boughs. Then I took off r clothes, wrung them out and put the on again. When I had everythii ready I lay down in the hole and pac ed the dirt and moss and boughs < and around me. "Before long body warmth began return again, and in two hours I w fairly warm. By morning my cloth were fairly dry. That discovery sav my life, not only that night, but i many later ones as I staggen through the wilderness." itiful English Res Indians Seeking Self-Governing Constitution Representatives of All Parties n.

But now, alas! it finds itself up against some of its own worst faults intensified by the Labor parties of the Dominions.

She says:--"I was a very delicate girl going into womanhood, when I first found benefit from Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I was a sufferer with cramps and pains every month and was hardly able to move around at all. One day when I was very sick friend came in to see me, and she said to my mother, 'Why not try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, I know they will do her a world of good."

If the rate of increase in automobile purchases is maintained for the next few months, the million car mark will soon be reached. More than 45 per cent, of all the automobiles owned in Canada at present are registered in Ontario. The province's total Is 436,12, or an average of 13.7 cars per 100 population. Quebec ranks second with 128,459 , or 4..9 per hundred. The prairie inces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, where farming is experiencing a rapid ^development in the areas served by the Canadian Pacific Railway, have a combined car registration of 244,329; British Columbia '7,617 cars; Nova Scotia 30,059, and New Brunswick 24,544. "Canada is building good roads to keep abreast of increased automobile ownership. Reports from every province received by the Canadian Good Roads Association, indicate that more money will be spent on highway construction of a $50,000,000 asphalt road this year than in any in history.
