thin and pale and in time various complications are apt to result. Tanlac is a powerful reconstructive tonic, and quickly overcomes this condition by aiding Nature to eliminate the impurities from the system in a natural way and enable the vital organs to properly perform their functions. That is why it is called Natures Medicine. In fact, there is net a single portion of the body that is not benefited by the helpfi 1 action of Tanlac, which begins its work by stimulating the digestive and assimilative organs, thereby enriching the blood and invigorating the entire system. Next, it enables the weak, worn-out stomach to thoroughly digest its food and convert the nourishing elements into bone, blood and muscle.

For many miles along the riverfront road east to Puce, the lake shore highway on the Canadian side is the sceife of busy operations. Not in much demand now, the 9-inch crystal blocks will Increase in value more than any other commodity before hot weather arrives. Eights cents a hundredweight for ice in summer is like finding money out in Detroit river and Lake St. Clair.

The writer visited the water front at Riverside, Monday afternoon when ice cutting operations were in progress by several crews. On Investigation It was found that all were farmers-of the Sandwich East and St. Clair Shores districts. Apparently the pack being put up yesterday was for home consumption, and a limited sale to the hundreds of cottagers along the riverfront from Ford to Tecumseh. liook Picturesque Looking very picturesque in the bright January sunshine, these French-Canadian ice cutters were working with a vim, and not a moment's time was wasted.

To one who has never viewed icecutting operations, the scene is most interesting. The neatly marked otf squares for the ice cutter, the long channel hewed out for the poling of ice blocks (o the loading chute, and the unique method of hauling the large cakes out of the water by horse power would make an attractive movie film. Work of Catting The cutter consists of a seventoothed Instrument, the steel teeth being directly in Lne and the points on the ice surface about six inches apart. With thi3 instrument drawn by a single horse, the French-Canadian ice-cutter states that he can cut two thousand blocks per day. At 160 to 175 pounds per block, this is not a bad days harvest.

The financial end of it can be deduced when the days cut is figured at the summer price of eighty cents per hundred. The shrinkage between now and summer, If the stock is well packed, would be almost negligible. The Ice-cutter goes over lines marked out, time after time, and at every traverse cuts down a half inch or more into the river floor. This operation is repeated many times until the thickness of the sheet is reuced to a point where safety for horse and driver compels further severing of the blocks ty precarious axe Floated Down Channel A long lane of free water, called the ice channel, is hewed out in line with the -loading shute, which resembles the bathing chute provided at beaches for quick precipitation into the aquatic realm. Along this channel, which extends out into the river for several hundred feet, the cut ice blocks are constantly poled along by three or four men using a regulation steel pointed pole for the work.

This handy adjunct to the work is about nine feet in length and is very dexterously handled by the men running blocks to the leading chute. When eight or nine blocks are marshalled in Ime at the bottom of the chute, a horizontal clamp is laid across the end block. Out on the ice some forty feet away from the chute, a team handled with equal dexterity stands ready for the word to pull the string of blocks out of the water and up the chute to the loading platform. Just on the other side of the loading platform other wagons continually come in line to receive the loads. Hauled Up Chute Gee Dap Thar, says the French-Canadiap manning the ice block team.
