action. l lction.) rses hop Ifll‘lO iities NE LNY ’P 'I‘hree years ago, We left the order on the society’s own termsâ€" a paid-up policy for nearly $600â€" re’micing that our monthly pay- ments were at an end, and our beneficiary would. get the “nearly 3mm“ when our time came to pass over to the great majority. The society next discovered that thwy had been working on a van-mg basis since they started, in 1:70. and wise men were called in In right the wrongs. Lots of wrongs were found, and our $600 paid-up policy was found tn be amongst them. We paid in, month after month, 311 we were expectedb to pay, thus carrying out our part of the conâ€" erdge.“ ‘_ What a beautiful gem of advice, and how pleased some of the old members will be to hear it. We ioined the society that has now some dry bones in it in 1896. We stayed. in it for 27 years, mating the promise all the time that if We died our beneficiaries Would get $2,000. 30 they would, if m. died soon enough, but our time hadn’t come. The Wise men made the adjust- HAQ‘HIS. ()ur $600 was reduced to $19, and pvr‘hzlps the time will yet come when other Wise men will discover that our 19 dollars should be only 1Q cents. With only a promise of $19, and no assurance that even that will ever come, we haven’t much vim left to put life into the dry bones of an A. O. U. W. Lodge. A memorial service was held. in the Presbyterian church on Sun- (3ng in memory of the late Pte.‘ Juhn Weir, who died on the bat- rlvfield on the 26th of September. The church was filled. to its capa- city by sorrowing relatives and. friends. Many high tributes were paid the deceased. He was an ex- emplary young man, faithful in the discharge of his every duty. in his home and wherever duty milled him. His pure and untarn- ished life and character were dwelt on at length by Rev. Mr. Whaley, who attributed. much to his early training and a loftiness of purpose that developed as a natural sequence. Much stress was laid on the brave young man who was one of the first to respond to thr‘ call of duty and offered him- self as a sacrifice in defence of righteousness and iustice.

I had frequent Dizzy Spells, and when I took food, felt wretched and sleepy. I suffered from Rheu- matism dreadfully, with pains in my back and joints, and my hands swollen. A friend advised “Fruit-a-tivee” and from the outset, they did me good. Afler the first box, I felt I was getting well and I can truthfully say that The Whistle of the thresher will soon b: a thing of the past for this year.
