There is no doubt that many distressing di- #eages are caused by constipation It gives rise to sick and billous head- #ches, jaundice. heartburn, floating specks before the eyes, catarrh of the stomach, billousness and the pain- ful, troublesome piles. Therefore, it f8 of supreme. importance to. health that the bowels be "kept regular. Simple food, fruit, ete., should be used, and rich food and stimulants of all kinds avoided. This, with the use of Milburn's Laxa-Liver Pills to regulate and establish healthy action of the bowels cannot fail to give permanent relief in the most obsti- nate cases. Mrs. Letitia Wainman, Orillia, Ont,, writes: -- "From a child I was always very badly constipated, and I can well remember 'when quite young, my mother giving me senna tea near- ly every morning, and I got to dread it.

McCrackan, C.8.B), Historian of Switzerland, Lecturer, and Editor. Article No. 4. We have all played the game of going to Jerusalem, and at present the parlor game is eusier than the actual trip to the Holy City, These ars the days of the winding up of the war. There are many loose ends to be tied, and until the knots are good and fast, war regulations and armies of occupation are the order of the day. As I write, nothing has been offici- ally and internationally settled about Palestine. The British army---thanks be to God--is in possession. The Turks arc out. But the Peace Conference has yet, and se going to Jerusalem is still somewhat of a game of chance, and a difficult one at that, How soon present conditions may change, --tomorrow, next week or next. year, will not apparently depend as much upon Jerusalem as upon Paris. The questions involved are sup- posed to a to the grand liquid- ation of war claims and to depend for their solution upon conflicting nation- al ambitions. That is the common be- lief. As a matter of fact the future of Palestine has long since been termined by prophecy, It is to be re- stored to the Twelve Tribes of Israel; and this is the time of the restoration. The Ishmael-Esau days have passed irrevocably. As soon expect to put Judah and Israel back again under the Saracons as to p:rmit the Arab heel upon the neck of Palestine. The world clock cannot be set back, The prophesies of Daniel, ™ and the word of Jesus to John in the Apocalypse forbid the further punish- ment of the Twelve Tribes, for they are now called to rule, where they once slaved. The last attem to nullify the word of the ebrew prophets failed when the Turko-Ger- man treachery was punished. Today the British commanding general sits in the German Hospice, which was | to threaten Jerusalem. The picture of | William the Second side by side with { God is shown as a curiosity, and the | other German strongholds, camouflag- {ed as charitable institutions with { Turkish connivance, are put to decent | local uses. Jerusalem will never again feel the | rule of the oppressor and the high- | sounding hireling, but will be a sheep- | fold under its own good shepherd, ap- { pointed from time of old to rule in | equity and freedom. : { The British Empire watches over | Jerusalem. The little British Military { Cemetery on the hillerest leading to | the Mount of Olives seals the right of the English-speaking race to preside | over the future of the Holy City. { Those who gave their lives to take Jerusalem have a right to be heard i and their ery to the world is to restore | Israel. Already they have given water {and a reasonable cleanliness to u city { which under Turkish slavery drank | from foul cisterns and lived in filth, { The British have lifted the fear from Jerusalem, which hung like a heavy pall over the land--fear of disease and death, fear of violent conversions, fear of injustice in the courts and { degradation in the army, fear of being {thought prosperous by robber pashas, fear for the safety of woman and child, fear for honor and for per. =~~Choi~s Pork Piles. ==Choice Blood Puddings, web de Head Cheese. ==Cholce brand Mince Meat. ~All kinds of Fresh Meat at lowést prices.
