No Worms in a Healthy Child
All children troubled with worms have an un-
healthy color, which indicates poor blood, and as a
rule, there is more or less stomach disturbance.
GROVE’S TASTELESS chill TONIC given regularly
for two or three weeks will enrich the blood, im-
prove the digestion, and act as a General Strength-
ening Tonic to the whole system. Nature will then
throw off or dispel the worm s, and the Child will be j
in perfect health. Pleasant to take. 60c per bottle.

The home of Columbus Allsop was
discovered on fire early this morning
and might have been totally destroy-
ed but for the timely arrival of Sid-
ney Hocks, who served valiantly as:
deputy fire department.
Washington Hocks was found sit-

scratching his chin in a deep study
and when somebody passed and asked
him what he was doing he said he was
just wondering who was going to be
elected.

Sile Kildew went to the public

The Town Marshal raided the Tick-

Another stray dog has followed

a rope around his neck to get him to
follow.
Cricket Hicks heard four fellows
sing a quartet at an entertainment in
the Calf Ribs neighborhood Wednes-
day night. He said they all stood up
in a row and leaned against each oth-
er and opened their mouths right
wide, and that the fellow on one end
went like a bull frog.

next month during which,
it is feared, the extremists will at-
tempt to swing the new-born council
in favor of a general strike.
“The People,” published here, de-
clares editorially that Lloyd George
has been maneuvered into a false po-

The laborite extremists,” the paper

for several days, therefore, that
there should be a showdown between
Lloyd George, and the laborites.
Some have counseled a summary
warning from the Premier in Com-
mons that the Government will not
tolerate any such dictation as seems
contemplated by the laborites. Oth-
er of the advisers of the Premier
have suggested a direct challenge of
the laborites’ pretentions through the
medium of a special election before
the “council of action” weapon grows
