COLD BROUGHT
ON RHEUMATISM

Pain is the symptom Of rheumatism
that every victim recognizes but the
physician appreciates that thin blood
is a marked Characteristic of the dis.
ease. Trying to cure rheumatism
while the blood remains thin and weak
is an almost impossible task because
there is nothing to build on.
Mr.. Harry l.. Seaver of 60 Union
street, Lynn, Mass, carpenter, was
subject to rheumatic attacks, and his
experience will interest others who
suffer In that way. Mr.. Seayer saws:
II had rheumatism off and on for
twenty years. My work at one time
kept me out in all kinds of weather,
and danpness and exposure caused
my affection. l had dull aching pains
In the left shoulder and in the right
knee. They were so severe at times
that they made it impossible for me to
rest at night. Isuffered with headache,
had dizzy spells and was nervous. My
stomach was out of order. ] learned
of person who had used DIR. Williams
Pink Pills as treatment for rheuma-
tism, and this decided me to try
them. They helped me and relieved
me of pain. They have never failed in
my case and / have recommended
them to many Others"
In no disease does the blood show
more altering and thinning than in
rheumatism. No permanent relief is
possible until the blood is restored and
the rheumatic poisons are cast out.
You can get DIR. Williams Pink Pills
at the nearest drug store wherever you
may live, or they will be sent by mail,
postpaid, upon receipt of price, fifty
cents per box, six boxes for two dol

Travel to Canada.

In some mysterious way--perhaps it
is one form that German propaganda has
taken-the idea has been spreading that
big obstacles are at this border to greet
persons seeking to enter Canada from
this country or there to dieter them
when they seek to return. " aadians in
this country wishing to visS their old
homes and Americans planning to 60,
say, to the Thousand Islands or to Nova
Scotia, for vacation trips, have been
much disturbed by stories of these OBJ
stacles.
Well, the simple truth of the matter is
that the obstacles do not exist. Through
official channels the Canadian govern.
ment is trying to make the situation
understood on this side Of the border.
For example, a Newtonville housemaid
heard that if she visited her old home
she would be held for some form of
war work and not allowed to return here.
The Canadian superintendent of immi-
grafton, W. d. Scott, writes her that a
woman does not need to have any pass
port, permit or any other paper to enter
or leave Canada, and that there is ALSO
lutely no regulation that interferes with
any travel by tourists, whether men or
women. The only persons who have to
get permit to leave Canada are male
residents of that country between Is
and As years of age-and residents OF
this country can 60 and come across the
Canadian border, on business or pleasure,
as freely as before the war. No registra-
ton in Canada is necessary, as reports
have persistently had it, and no pass
ports are required. The one thing neces-
sary from Americans when crossing the
border is papers that show American cit
izenship. The holder of such papers is
given an identification card by the i'm
migration officials, and that is the end
Of it.-Boston Herald.

jam in Place of Butter.

In foreign war countries janis more
than ever taking the place of butter. The
ingenuity OF the French housewife even
makes a marmalade Of some uninterest-
ing vegetables, but we here can still hold
to fruit. First among the fruit for can
ming and making the most delicious jam
OF them all, is the strawberry both
garden and wild. Where the saving Of
sugar is an inducement, it is well to
know that the longer jam is cooked, the
less sugar need be used. OF course it is
not safe TO cook any acid any length of
time in anything but enameled ware, the
smooth surface of which is entirely inn
pervious to the action of any acid. Long
cooking will darken the Jam, but much
less so if cooked in enameled ware than
II In contact with metal. While the jam
may not be SO pretty when boiled for
such long time the taste will not be
impaired. Cook the strawberries then
until they are like thick marmalade;
then add brown sugar in the proportion
OF one-half cup of sugar to one and one
half Of the jam
Strawberry jam can be varied by the
addition of cherries The cherries should
be balved and the stones taken out For
some reason cherries do not bear very
abundantly with us and have usually
been used in making preserves This
method, however, takes much sugar and
is not to be recommended for war time
Place the Strawberries and cherries in an
enameled ware preserving kettle, and let
them cook until they are thick rich
mass. While this long cooking will dark
en- the color, it will not injure the flavor
Of the product. This jam cen be sweet
ened by some Of the cheaper grades Of
sugar. Add the sugar just before remov-
ing from the fire. One cup of sugar to
two of jam win usually be sufficient,
though should the cherries be very acid
it may be necessary to add more.

She had no regrets when Bill con-
fined their stay to the time necessary
to turn his gold into a bank account,
and allow her to buy a trunkful, more
or less, of pretty clothes. Then they
bore on eastward and halted at Ash
croft. Bill had refused to commit
himself positively to a date for the
eastern pilgrimage. He wanted to see
the cabin again. For that matter she
did. too-so that their sojourn there
did not carry them over another win
ter.
From Ashcroft an auto stage whirled
them swiftly into the heart of the
Cariboo country-to Quesnelle, where
Bill purchased four head of horses in
an afternoon, packed, saddled. and hit
the trail at daylight in the morning.
The vanguard of the land hungry
had already penetrated to Fort George.
Up and down the Nachaco valley, and
bordering upon the Fraser, were the
cabins of the pre-emptors. The roads
were dotted with the teams of the
incoming. A sizable town had sprung
up around the old trading post.
''They come like bees when the rush
starts" Bill remarked.
Leaving Fort George behind. they
bore across country toward Pine river.
Here and there certain landmarks,
craven deep in Hazel's recollection,
uprose to claim her attention. And
one evening at sunset they rode up to
the little cabin, all forlorn in its clear
ing.
Inside, a gray film Of dust had ac-
cumulated on everything, and the
rooms were oppressive with the musty
odors that gather in a closed, unten-
anted house. But apart from that 1t
stood as they had left it thirteen
months before. No foot had crossed
the threshold. The pile of wood and
kindling lay beside the fireplace as
Bill had placed it the morning they
left.
"Be 1t ever so humble" Bill left
the line of the old song unfinished, but
his tone was full of jubilation. Be
