"A system of protection can sur- vhe ill Canada only if it beneﬁts the great majority of Canadians and, therefore. it is recognized that the support. of consumers must be sought by bending every energy to producing articles of ﬁne quality and selling them at reasonable juices. Protection is, and will be, on trial in Canada and the beneﬁt certain to accrue to the country as a whole from its proper appli- cation must. not be impaired in any degree through improper use by in- dividuals of a system intended and planned f0.‘ national WQIIBJC."

If this official statement from the

ClvLA. represent-i the unanimous view and intention of its members, it speaks well for the leaders of

Canadian industry and promises well for the future of the country.

Whatever may or .inay not be agreed upon at the present Imperial Conference, the conference itself may be reckoned as a substantial item on the right side of the account. It brings tlic Empire a step nearer tlic goal of economic unity. Even if Premier Bennett's propositon be not concurred in by the present British Government. a feeling of disappoint- inent should not be entertained by advocates of an Empire trade policy, There was no general expectilon that a British Government so strongly committed to free trade a‘; that new in office would embrace the Bennett idea. Most people were prepared for the MacDonald Govcniinents rejec- tion of the idea. but did not anticip- at: so hearty a reception of it by the British people, as well as by the representatives of all Caniiclas sister

dominioiis. Sure ground has been géined. There will be no turning back. What matters if the seal of

Empire acceptance bc affixed now or a year or so hence, so icing as the mass of the Empire peoples nin their faith to the policy? The next British Government is pretty certain to dc- clare for it, thereby making the self- governing countries under the Union Jack unanimous.

When you have a. rheumatic pain whether it is in the joint or muscle your ﬁrst thought is relief for that pain.

As a medical student I tried to learn tho different types of rheuma- tism, acute. chronic, muscular, gout

. and so fortii, because there were dif-

ferent remcdcs for the treatment of each type, and also little precautions to take in regard to diet and exer- cise.

As to the cause of rheumatism we were not very sure, and so treatment was tlic big factor.

Nowadays when practically all rheumatism can be trnccdto infec- tion, the first though‘. is to ﬁnd out just what point or points in the body

is responsible for the rheumatism pains. At one time the tonsils were

thought to be practically the only cause. and as removal of same brought about relief it. was B. great stride forivartl, flcivcvcr where and rheuniatirzin occurred, something else had to be found and so in turn it was learned that ihc teeth, the sin- 1150s. the gall bladder. tlic appcndx

and the large intestine could cause‘-

rheumatism.

This has been one of the greatest advances in the history of medicine because it has not only saved many from years of suffering, and prevent- ed the crippling of joints, but has also prevented inuny thousands of eases of heart disease.

However" when rheumatic pains do come, and you are actually stiiferitig what should be clone?

Where a joint is red and swollen it is consdcrtid unwise to move or mas- sage it. Rest and heat is best. If pnén without swelling heat. massage, and the use of olntments or llnimcnts Vllli-Hillilifl oil of Wintergreen have been found most reflective.

The muscles or joint ‘is ﬁrst heated by hot applications or baking, then massage/and moving of the muscle or joint ilicn hot applcations again, and ﬁnally the use of the ointment.

Sometimes gauze 01' a bandage is put over a part to help the ointment. or lininent to be more effective by keeping up mere warmth in the pert.

Br-Canada is suffering 'from a wave of depression at this time. Of all people ln the world we have least cause for pessimls 1. If our people could only see that truth and act as if they believed lt, we should soon see‘ Canada on the high road of prosper- ity once more. To this end, I have written a little booklet under the title of “You're one of the ton mil- lion," a copy of which I shall be glad to send free to any of year readers who will send me a stamped, self- addressed envelope.

I am confident that the reading of this message of this booklet by any Canadian who Is in tlie doldrums of pessimism about conditions in this dominion will soon banish his fears and get him seeing things right and whole. This is all that is needed to bring back prosperity to Canada.
