Bodily Housekeeping
CBY Y. M. PIERCE, M. d.

CBY V. M. PlERCE, NJ. ~
The subject of drinking water with
meals has been misunderstood.
In recent years investigation by
means of X-rays, the observations Of
scientists such as Cannon, Grutzner,
Pavlov, Fowler, Hawk, prove that an
abundance Of water taken during d.
gestion is necessary in good bodily
housekeeping.
If your kidneys are sick, or you suf-
fer with Iumhago or rheumatism at
times, pain in the back or back of the
neck, take little Anuric before meals.
This can be found at any good drug
store. Therefore my advice to young
or old is, always drink plenty Of pure
water. And for long life, occasionally
take tablets of Anuric three or four
times day.
Anuric acts-much more quickly
than lithia. You will find it dissolves
uric acid as water does sugar.

NO MORE TIMBER
T0CANADA FROM
UNITED STATES

Montreal. March 16.-There will be
no more timber imported from the
United States to Canada for Domin-
ION government work. The fact that
the administration has decided on this
step and that the Canadian Pacific
Railway also recently announced its
intention Of following a similar course,
has been hailed in conductive and con-
servation circles in the Dominion as a
proceeding which will work great
benefit to the Canadian lumber trade.
Southern pine. even in 1915, when
Canada was at war and when there
was great decrease in consumption of
lumber. was imported into Canada to
the extent Of 100000 feet. having a
value Of over 100000. In previous
years, very much larger quantities
were imported, despite an adverse
trade balance for Canada. and in the
fact of the supply in Canada Of bet
ter timber at an equal or lower cost,
grown and manufac tured entirely in
the Dominion.
The Dominion government has in
past years used many million of
southern pine in various public works,
but henceforth Canadian timber will
be used to the exclusion of the foreign
article. Douglas fir will replace south
ern pine in such works as Quebec and
Montreal harbor improvements and
hudson Bay terminals. Douglas fr has
been used in the Toronto harbor works.
as a clause was inserted in that con-
tract calling for Canadian material.

Paris, March 1.-the third battle in

sons have not attempted to follow up

Meanwhile the French reserves

cam up and won back most of the lost
ground. according to the reports from
the scene of the fighting. The official
statement of Wednesday reporting this
movement only mentioned the re-
capture of positions near Hill No. 265
northwest of Dead Mans Hill, but II
is generally believed here that the
counter-offensive went farther than
that during the day. it being the hab-
it Of the general staff only to announce
advantages when they are definitely
won.
The abrupt halt in the German Of
fensive after what, according to the
official reports, were the small sue
cesses won, is regarded by military
opinion here, as a highly significant
symptom, it being considered that
from the heavy forces engaged in Tues.
days attack the Germans had a
greater objective than the capture OF
few advanced trenches.

The report that has been going the
rounds that tho civil engineers who
are to have charge Of the work on the
new bridge at Fairfield and the yard
extensions in Waterville this summer
for the Maine Central Railroad, had
made arrangements to occupy the
Gerald hotel in Fairfield and to have
their own cooks and walters there. is
declared by the management Of the no.
tel to be without foundation. Mr.. AL
len, the owner is now at work having
the interior Of the building changed
over so that it will contain II rooms
and a dining room, what was the din
ing room and Office having been let for
mercantile purposes. There seems to
be considerable question as to when
the work will be completed and the
hotel again opened to the public. In
the meantime the rumor that 1t Is to
be occupied by a private party Of rail-
road men for the summer seems to be
dispelled.
