THE REVIEW

BY BEA BOND

The other evening while
, listening to the Irish Rovers sing
“about “Lydia Pinkham’s Pink
Pills for Pale People,’ I was
reminded of some early ad-
vertisements for remedies and
cures I had read in a 1902
publication. Possibly they may
bring back memories to some of
your readers and a few chuckles
to others.

A Sure Cure for the Tobacco
Habit states: ‘Nicotine is a
virulent poison and the. chief
ingredient of tobacco. It is the
cause of all nervous troubles and
general debility of smokers. Our
Sure Cure will destroy the effects
of this nicotine, chase it from the
system and make weak men
strong again, and impotent. men
gain weight and vigour, make
the old feel young again. —— It is
not a drug; it can be chewed the
same.as tobacco, or taken
dissolved in coffee or hot tea.

And ladies, if your problem is
overweight, possibly you would
be interested in Dr. Rose’s
Obesity Powders. ‘‘People who
have obesity are troubled with
sluggish circulation and labored
action of the heart. The pafient
feels lazy and burdensome.

There is a sluggish condition of

the whole system; they are not
exactly sickly but there is a
feeling that all is not right.” (My

exact symptoms!!) “Dr. Rose’s.

Obesity Cure will reduce cor-
pulency in a ‘safe and agreeable
manner, perfectly harmiess.”’

Do you want a splitting
headache cured immediately?
Mexico Headache Cure positively
guarantees relief. within fifteen
minutes after the first dose has
been taken. ‘No. matter from
what. cause, whether.a. nervous
headache, or from the stomach,
or a severe case of neuralgia, we
: g@uarantee complete relief. It is
_ perfectly harmless and-no. bad

= results follow its use. Rarely is:a
- second dose required except in.

., very, obstinate cases.’
How about. ‘Dr: “Hammond’s
Nerve and Brain. Pills guaran-

teed to. cure any disease! ‘This’
will cure you if you feel generally -

miserable: or. suffer witha

spirits, nervousness, lifelessness,

_weakness, or emptiness of the

stomach in the morning, blurring
of eyesight, poor memory,
lassitude, gurgling or rumbling in
the stomach, drowsiness after
meals but nervous wakefulness
at night. —— They will tone up
the whole nervous ‘system, no
matter how much worn. out,
overworked or depressed you
may be; weak and timid young
mien made strong and bold again;
will give youthful vigour and a
new lease on life to the old!”
Dr. Rose also seems to have
produced French Arsenic
Complexion Wafers . “‘which
possess the ‘Wizard's Touch’ in
preserving and enhancing beauty
of form and person. in male and
female by surely. developing a
transparency and a peilucid
clearness of complexion, shapely
contour of form, brilliant eyes,
soft and smooth skin, where by
nature the reverse exists.”
“Even the coarsest and most
repulsive skin and complexion
marred by freckles and. other
disfigurements, slowly. changes
into an unrivaled purity of tex-
ture, free from any spot or
blemish: whatever; the. pinched
features become agreeable, the
form angular gradually tran-
sforms. itself into perfection of
womanly grace and beauty. Used
by men, the favourable resuits
are the same.’’ WOW!!
“Bristol’s Sarsaparillaand
pills” claimed to be “reliable and
certain. remedies of heart

disease, rheumatism, dyspepsia,-

liver complaint and: scrofula in
all its different forms and stages.

dard have certified these facts.”

Rose’s. Old Reliable Hari and
Whisker Dye (in use since 1860)
and could change colour of the

hair.to a light or dark brown or

black in a few hours. without
doing any. injury to it. Or,
perhaps, you'd prefer “Blon-
dine’, the famous hair bleach.
perfectly harmless, which would
turn the hair from any colour toa
beautiful light brown or golden
blonde.

After the whiskers are dyed:
you might wish to use Pomade
Philacome, ‘‘an_ exquisite
dressing for the hair. and
moustache, nicely perfumed and
highest quality’’ or Olive Wax
Pomatum, ‘‘for fixing and laying
the. hair, whiskers and
moustaches — highly perfumed."'

Do you. want to be beautiful?
Try “White Lily Face Wash" for
“A spotless skin. a matchless
complexion, the envy and pride of
everyone. Permanently cures
pimples or other eruptions of the
skin, completely rernoves tan,
freckles, blotches, sallowness,
roughness, flabbiness, wrinkles
and all other inperfections. of the
skin, face, neck, bust, arms and
hands. Lily White Face Wash is
clear and harmless as water.”

Possibly you’d like some cures
for your animals and pets. How
about these?.

‘“‘A good blister for animals is a

rare and valuable. article” says -
the..ad for Star. Crescent

And, “of course, you “ want..to

praise of the interesting exhibits

Saanich School Trustees
decided Monday to reply to the
Victoria and District Parent-
Teacher Council ‘stating that
discrimination against native
Indians does not exist in School
District No. 63.

Mrs. M. Money, secretary of the
Victoria: group, stating that in-
stances of discrimination had
been brought before the Council
by the Indian's ‘‘Home Makers
Group’ (a_ self-help. organ-
ization.

The letter went on to request
that Saanich trustees meet with
the Home Makers Group with a
view to ‘ending discrimination.”

Mrs. Thomas and. Mrs. Joe

were assured that the Saanich

Board is anxious to hear should

discrimination so that ap-
propriate action may be taken.

A sidelight to the discussion
was the apparent support of the
two ladies of the Home Makers
Group for complete integration of
native youngsters into the public
school’ system,. from _ kin-
dergarten onward. According. to
Trustee MacNeill’s report,
