Learned from a Sample Nineteen Years Ago That He Could Depend on Dr. to Cure Many of the Common Ills of Life. Ney Living eighteen miles from a drug store Mr. Carr found it necessary to keep in the house some treatment to regulate the action of liver, kidneys and bowels. « To the habit of keéping these im- portant organs active by the use of Dr. Chase's . Kidney-Liver Pills, when required, he attributes the good health of his large family. Here, surely, is evidence of the va- lue of these pills as a family medi- cine to protect the members of the family who use it from the common ills so many of which arises from constipation of the bowels and torpid condition of the liver and kidneys. Mr. James Carr, Maynooth, Ont. writes: -- "About 19 years ago I re- ceived an envelope containing two of Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills. I was doctoring at the time with two doctors, and: as they did me no good I used the Pills, and by the time I Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills had finished one box I was cured of the pain in th ck.and sho TS. £ a Bandon 12%. "We have Chase's Medicines. I have a family of ten children and have never had a doctor in the house for any of them, We live eighteen miles from a dryg store and find that these. Pills cure nearly all the ordinary ills by regu- lating the liver, kidneys and bowels, That we are all well and sound I at- tribute to their use and I have recom: mended them to hundreds and given away many a box because I believe there is no medicine so good." By awakening the action of liver, kidneys and bowels Dr. Chase's Kid- ney Liver Pills cleanse the system of poisons and remove the cause of bili- ousness, headaches, backache, lum- bago, kidney disease and rheuma- tism.

M. C. A. Has Done, If the Y. M. C. A. work among 'soldiers and civilians Is to be carried on successfully during the coming year, the citizens must contribute the sum of $5,000. . During 'the presént week practic- ally every citizen will be waited up- py a member of the committee in rge of the canvass and asked to give a subscription. Although the young men and boys who are members of the association Pay a subscription fee this money only covers about one quarter of the expense ,0f running the association's work, which means that the rest must be borne by the citizens at large. . On Monday eveniug a large num- ber of the members of the Board of Directors, Young Men's Cabinet and friends met in the Y.M.C.A. parlors and commenced the work of thé cam- paign which is going to be waged during the present week. W. Hobart Dytle, Chairman of the'Finance Com- mitted, explained the scheme. .The Leam n this year is a combined one, that is funds must be raised for the thilitary work and also the as- 'sociation work. The following state- ment, given oii by the Secretary shows importance of giving towards the fund : During this great nauwnal crisis this association has shown its real worth in anticipating and meeting the needs of the men in khaki, For more than a year the Kingston "Y" Nhas been a veritable 'Soldiers' Club." All 'men in uniform have had free use of all socia] privileges including reading room, writing room, piano, victrola, games, etc. Some 30,000 sheets of writing paper and envelopes have been given free to the dreds of soldiers who frequented the rooms-daily. Large numbers of sol- dier members from other associations have used all Physical Department privileges free, and those having no association affiliation were given full privilege tickets for six months at a very nominal rate. From time to time bathing parades of whole com- panies of soldiers were accommodat- ed free of charge. In order to/ do this latter work successfully, exten- sive 'and costly repairs had to be made to the bath room, heating ap- paratus, dnd this expengp..tggether with the increased .expendituré for Hght, fuel, stationery, etc., was met by the Finance Committee with a greatly reduced budget, feeling that the year's shortage would be cheer- fully met by an appreciative public when the annual canvass was made. In addition to the work conduct- ed in the city association, a military branch of the Y. M. C. A. is being conducted in the basement of Brock Street Methodist Church, through the kindness of the Official] Board of that Church in permitting the use of their rooms. $, Last fall it was found necessary to have a special secretary devoting his ston. C. V. Farmer, Toronto, was 'secured for the work and since last November a quiét though effective work has beek going ion in the diff- erent barracks. Concerts have been arranged, song services conducted, Christmas cheer provided, etc. The fective way with the different chap- lains in arranging athletics, games, ete. From personal talks with the men and letters weceived from the different home towns, the military secretary 'has discovered numerous ways in whidh- he can be a real friend to the soldier. The Military Oommittee 'have exercised great faith in undertaking such a pro- gramme without a budget, and in re- sponse to the united appeals of the City and Military Associations, the kind and liberality of the citi- zens is looked for in spite of the oth- er worthy appeals made to their gen- erosity during the yast year.

Hewitt, sporting editor of the Toronto Star pays this tribute to a Kingston hero : No one acquainted with Captain George T. Richardson of Kingston, who made the supreme sacrifice for his country, expressed surprise at his last request, made public in hig will, by which the children of the disabled sured of an education--he bequeath- ed the sum of $30,000 for that pur- tic of the man, He was a clean-liv- ing, whole-souled, unselfish, loyal young Canadian, the very best type of citizen, who of necessity made a | great soldier. An athlete from boy- | hood, and one of the most marvel- ous exponents of Canada's greatest winter game, hockey, he always prov- clean as a whistle in his play} always considerate of an opponent, and nev- er guilty of taking an advantage of | his rivals. { tional, and in civic and business life | these traits of character always pre- standing figure, not only in his own if not by Canada, since the war be- gan. ) As a soldier George proved himself to be one of the best, cool, daring, resourceful, courage- ous, in fact, with every attribute that a good soldier required. made a specialty of gerous of all spots, it was certainly that the work would | me well and thoroughly done. The | the young Kingstonian is best ex- | pressed in the simple but eloquent | inscription they put on the wreath | they laid on his grave in France : | "To cne who played theegame." |.

"Over half the male members are in uniform and the fees may have to be increased to keep the club solvent, if continued.

Upon the Boldt property is located the field of the Thousand Island Pelo club, which will open its fourth season this year with a regulation size polo field. » This year the polo season will] open August 19th and close on Sep- tember 4th. . Efforts are to be made to have the Islanders take an interest in the club and give all of the assistance pos- sible permanently establishing polo. The support received last season was considered satisfactory, but it is now aimed to increase it. John Hays Hammond contributed an extra family membership and among those who already hold this form of membership are George C. Sherman and John B. Taylor, Water- town. Other distinguished members of the club are: George C. Boldt, George C. Boldt, jr., Commodore T. A. Gillespie, Clifford Sifton, and Mr. and Mrs' A. Graham Miles.
