THE WATERTOWN BE-UNION. a \TO FORTY DREN'S HOME, CHILDREN IN CHIL- ;AYS THEY OWE GOOD HEALTH TO FATHER JOHN'S MEDICINE \I have 40 or 50 children hore at the children's home constantly. When they are weak or run down I always give them Father John's Medicine to build them up. They all gain rapidly under the treatment the medicine affords. Whenever they get cold or have a cough or throat irritation Father John's Medicine gives prompt and sura relief. \(Signed) 'Ellen 0'I.eary, Matron, Children's Home, Lowell, Mass.\ Father John's Medicine does. ^t contain opium, morphine, chloroform or any narcotic drugs—so it is a Bala medicine for all the family.

When you get exhaust- ed over bridge he prescribes dancing as a rest cure.\ SYRUP OF FIGS FOR A CHILD'S BOILS |t is cruel to force nauseating, harsh physic into a sick child. Look back' at your childhood days. Remember the \dose\ mother insisted on—castor oil, calomel, cathartics. How you hated them, bow you fought against taking them. With our children it's different. Mothers who cling to the old form of physio simply don't realize what they do. The children's revolt is well-found- ed. Their tender little \insides\ are Injured by them. If your child's stomach, liver and bowels need cleansing, give only deli- cious \California Syrup of Figs.\ Its action is positive, but gentle. Millions of mothers keep this harmless \fruit laxative\ handy; they know children love to take it; that it never falls to clean the liver and bowels and sweet- en the stomach, and that a teaspoonful given today saves a sick child tomor- row. Ask at the store for a 60-cent bottle of \California Syrup of Figs,\ which 'has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly on each bottle.

I kept gradually losing my health, but 1 used to say 'nonsense, It don't hurt me.' \Slowly I was forced to admit the truth and the final result was that my nervous force was shattered. \My heart became weak and uncer- tain In its action and that frightened me. Then my physician told me that I must stop drinking coffee or I could never expect to be well again. \I thought of Postum but could hardly bring myself to give up the coffee. \Finally I concluded that I owed It to myBelf to give Postum a trial. I got a package and carefully followed the directions, and what a delicious, nour- ishing, rich drink it was! Do you know, I found it very easy to shift from coffee to Postum. \Almost immediately after I made the change I found myself better, arid as the days went by I kept on improv- ing, My nerves grew steady, I slept well and felt strong and well-balanced. Now the old nervousness i s gone and I am well once more.\ It pays to give up the drlnlc that acts on some like a poison, for health is the greatest fortune one can have.

MODEL OF CHURCH TO COST $5,000,000 THE BUILDING The Natural Nde of Those Who Take Part in It- To those -who. have built railroads through and across the prairies, of Western Canada, connecting that great empire, of. grain and cattle,, horse and _' sheep with the world?S'markets< in, the ' east,, must .be awarded the privilege' of looking upon their work, and its results with pardonable pride. If they reminisceuce, and tell of the hardships and the privations, why shouldn't they? The broad prairies on which the buffalo roamed and fed, are now alive with cities, towns and villages, Farms—large and small—on which machinery has chased the bugaboo pi laborious work off, the farm, and mak- ing farm life one of the most pleasant - and prosperous of occupations—are being cultivated by men of the highest, . stamp of manhood. Many of these have inherited from their forebears the physical strength and the high type of manliness that was theirs in the days when they hewed their homes out of the virgin forest, and made, them what may be seen today, beau- tiful farms in the east. On the whole the western prairies breed a high type of manhood, wrest from him faults and diseases which would be his were it not for the upbuilding influence and character of prairie life. When the builder of the western Ca- nadian prairie looks upon the result of. his work, why shouldn't his chest/ex- pand? It was probably some of fMa feeling of pride that took possession of Sir Donald Mann, vice president of the Canadian Northern Railway the other day in Winnipeg, when he said: \I am not in the habit of giving ad- vice, but I have no hesitation of advis- ing the young men of Canada, every young man, to get out and get a piece of western Canada's land that now can be had for the asking and be their own masters.\ \It was 36 years ago when I first came to Winnipeg,\ he said. \At that time there were less than 150,000 people west of Lake Huron in Canada, and the only bit of railway in opera- tion was between St. Boniface and Em- erson—about sixty miles. Today theri are nearly 20,000 miles of railway in actual operation and the population i s over two and a quarter million, a won- derful achievement in such a short pe- riod you will agree, when you have contemplated it a moment.\ \At that time all the flour, meat and many other supplies for our contracts were brought from the States. Now consider what the west is doing to- day. You have a grain production ex- ceeding a billion bushels and yet only a comparatively small area- of the till- J* able land of the country is occupied. Five years hence you will be more than doubling that.\—Advertisement. Vacation. SCook—What is your definition of a vacation?

Says Drugs Excite Kidneys and Rec- ommends Only Salts, Particularly If Bladder Bothers You. When your kidneys hurt and your back feels sore, don't get scared and proceed to load your stomach with a lot of drugs that excite the kidneys and irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your\ bowels clean, by flushing them with- a mild, harmless Baits which re- moves the body's urinous waste and stimulates them to their normal activ- ity. The function of the kidneys Is to, filter the blood. In 24 hours they strain from it 500 grains of acid .and waste, so we can readily understand the vital importance ol keeping the kidneys 'active. Drink lots of water—you can't drink too much; also get from any pharma- cist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning for a few days and your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in- jure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep their kidneys clean and active. Try this, also keep up the water drinking, and no doubt you will wonder what became of your kidney trouble and backache.—Adv. .^^ Contrasts. {^ \What's meaner than to pea#w v \Or lovelier than to be oheF^-Al- bany Argus. - ^ - ' ' • • • - —,— •-. — < _ Important t o Mothers \ Examine carefully every bottle\of CASTORIA, a safe and sufe.rernedy Jor' infants and children, and see \thajr it Bears the Sigriaturpof i ^ In Use for Over 30'Years.
