For five years I was so affected that it was able to carry on my business. I may say I am a barber by trade. After having tried numerous remedies, I was finally advised to try 'Kruschen. I ,am pleased to say that after hav- ing used Kruschen for some twelve months, I am now freer from aches and pains than I have been for some ten years. In fact, I consider I am rid of rheumatism, thanks to Krus- chen Salts."--W. M. Two of the ingredients of Krus- chen Salts are the most effectual solvents of uric acid known to med- ical science. They swiftly dull the sharp edges of the painful crystals, then convert them into a harmless solution. Other ingredients of these Salts have a stimulating effect upon the kidneys, and assist them to ex- pel the dissolved uratic needles through the natural channel.

The bird at the moment is the object of considerable attention in the Old Country, and concerning it the "Spectator" says -- "Few successes of greater interest and practical pos- sibilities have been won in the field of agricultural biology than the making. of the new Cambridge hen. Her chicks declare their sex at birth, because the males and females are differently marked. This is a. great advantage to the poultry industry, since chicks travel safely and well only during the first two days of their life. The new breed, known as Cambar, was developed by Dr, R., C. Punnet and his associates at Cam- bridge, England, by the application of Mendelian principles. By the use of the Canadian Barred Phymouth Rock (supplied by the University of British Columbia to Cambridge Uni- versity) both silver and golden Cambars have been evolved. They are prolific layers of large coloured eggs, whilst still possessing the vir- tue of sex-linked chicks. These chicks mark an epoch in the scientific breeding of poultry." Amazing New Cure Found By British Woman Doctor Characterized as "amazing" by a University College official, a drug treatment discovery by Dr. Mary B. Walker of St. Alfege's Hospital, Greenwich, is described by the Lon- don News Chronicle's special re- presentative as "compared in im- portance with that of the insulin cure for diabetes and the liver cure for anaemia." Myasthenia gravis has baffled the doctors of the world for years, the paper says. It afflicts people be- tween the ages of 20 and 30, affect- ing all the voluntary muscles and causing almost complete paralysis similar to that produced by the cur- "| are poison used by Indians to poison their arrows. - Dr. Walker experimented the drug, prostigmin, obtained striking results, and recently demonstrated section of the Medicine. Royal Society of ers decided to test prostigmin on a girl art student of 28 suffering from myasthenia gravis in such an ad- vanced form that she could not sit up in bed. This was their own report: "Three weeks ago the patient was treated at home with prostigmin. For 10 minutes no change took place. Twenty minutes after the injection, the patient was asked to raise the arms above the head. This was done immediately, although for 10 years she had been unable to raise her arms even to the horizontal position and keep them there." Improvement continued and the reports stated that shortly the girl was able to dance. : "No one must be allowed to suf- fer for lack of life's necessities, but self-reliance must be encouraged and thrift rewarded." -- Jesse H.

A Horse's Intelligence Writes the London Spectator-- "The tale of an incident reaches me (from an Australian Rectory) that should qualify the view held by some of our biologists that the horse must be put down as one of the least intelligent of animals. The thesis has been very highly maintained of late; and one of its advocates is Miss Frances Pitt, the best of all our natural history writ- ers on the subject of mammals. The incident is as follows: During a flood in New South Wales, small "foal - : "caught in a paddock near the racecourse, apparently too fright- ened to follow its mother when the rising waters forced her to leave, or she may have been driven out in a mob. Several men watching with keen interest the little animal careering around on the dry ground determined to rescue it by boat, if it did not ..come out. Presently several horses were seen making their way back through the flood waters and ,surounding the, baby with almost human intelligence, coaxed it through the shallowest part to safely. Their delight on being able to rescue the young- ster made a deep impression on all who were fortunate enough BIG Value BIG Satisfaction BIG BEN THE PERFECT Chewing Tobacco The Toll Of The Roads Says the London Daliy Herald: The real problem is not so much how people use the roads, but what kind of roads are provided for them to use. In narrow, congested streets, in wide roads without facilities for pedestrian crossings, in all thor- oughfarés "where traffic of vastly different kinds is mixed up to- gether, accidents will occur. They are -inherent in road chaos, and we wish we could feel sure that there was at the Ministry of Transport as much appreciation of the need for road reform as there evidently is for safety devices.
