Ottawa, Sept. 15. -The Treaty of Ver- sailles which took six months and the best diplomacy of the world to frame was dispobed of by Parliament in four days - at Premier Borden's request. This docte ment which determines the relations of the civilized world for the next hundred years was railroaded through the Cana- dian Parliament n ninety-six hours. There must be a reason. What is it? Stranger even than Premier Borden's precipitancy was his peevishness on the sublect. He was even more peevieti about the peace treaty than he was abou titles, although he handled both the sam way -the dire threat in each case bein that if Parliament didn't do as he salci h would treat it as a want of conndenc motion and go to the country. Whic prompted House Leader Mackenzie t put a shrewd finger on the sore spot an remark that if Premier Borden was Pain for a fall he could hnd plenty of issue nearer home to do the trick. Of caw Bernier Borden has no stomach for these home issues. He prefers to go down on grandiose principle like Imperialism 1 which he has, in a considerable meast re committed this country without muc Consent from the people of Canada. Union Government is in a happy posi tion of being able to be defeated alms auy time it likes to pull off an election but naturally it wants to choose the man ner of its exit. It desires to leave th stage with the band playing and bot hands on the Union Jack. The pear treaty and its supplement the League u 1slations covenant are part of the play in fact thr *bole plot of the play. and Premier Borden is not going to have th piece spoilt by blundering intrusions froth Parliament. - Practically he Ism -Ratify or not t doesn't make any difference. But you dori't I'll quit the job.- This throw consternation into both parties, wh naturally want to see Union Governmen crucify itself a little longer. The unfor tunate party that cleasis up the met; which represents the present state o Canada will last just long enough to clean it up and will immediately thereafter re- ceive from the irritated electorate a swift kick in a 'definitely localized spot which will land it somewhere in the next conces- sion. So far no politician or group politicians has expressed a desire for thi sort of to atment. Consequently Pre mier Borden's threat of general election is a real compeller. • Quite as strange as Premier Borden's haste to eet the thing over was Parlia- ment's willingnrss to lose such a tint op- portunity for windjamming. In the old days there were many marathon perform- ers in debate - I remember not with un- mixed pleasure an eight•hour speech by Sir Hibbert Tupper -but now they are all short -distance felows. ,printers for a hundred yards, after which they are all out. Not that they haven't said some- thing in their brief effort, but that they can't go the long journey. Here is a Perliament with its mouth watering for something to talk about. something that will string things out for thirtrone • THZ SIGNAL Get a Packet, and Realize what an infusion of Really Pure Fine Tea Tastes like 11 TOWNSHIP COUNCILS.

I 1 Is all foolishness. but it goes to show o that the Treaty ol Versaille• is not the t consummate instiument its authors pro- s The debate disclosed a paradox which f• was not solved when the speaking- ended i Indeed. it will not be solved until there is . plainer speaking. The, paradox is that ' Canada is an indepenaent nation within 1 the British Empire. and also that she 1 isn't. ' If she cannot make peace or war ; on her own account- but don't let,us quarrel. Thr main point is that. so far as Canada is concerned. the Treaty of Vetsailles reduces to writing a doctrine which we may have admitted in public , but Always with ' mental reaervations. namely. that when the British Empire is at war Canada is at war. Events' :go to show that this is. in practice:Attie. When we fought in the South African war it was, as some might say. an acsident. When we bore our part in the Great IVar it became a nabit. To that habit we set pur hand and seal in the Treats. cf. V illes. Perhaps our best defence asainst the massing move- ments of alien meet. is to share the dangers and protection'ef the. 131g Show .which is known as the Brinell Empire. . and perhaps it is not. Tirrwal te:l. but meanwhile our politicians, bay as little about it as possibie. It does hot escape notice. however; that with a resident ! NE/lister overseas. an Empire Council and other matters. we seem 1, be dividitig the interest ahich was formerly concentrated on Canada. The debate in Parliameast .said nothing of changes in our constnue Pon. probably because such are not apprehended. Meanwhile th- Prince of ! %ales makes a triumphal tour of the ! country. In due course Viscount Jellicoe . will visit us to preach -a standardized navy for the Empue. and after that Marsha ' Hai„ will -probably give our army the once-oves. 0( all this embroidery on our home rule , Parliament muttered little. l'PAINFUL RHEUMATISM wor ing days -which is about six weeks by the calendar-- and it meekly agrees to to take four weeks to swallow. 1 repeat tnat this is passing strange, because th$ fashion of long speeches has pne out add the ability to make them -has also disappeared. Once upon a t ime your long-distance rhetorician did won- derful things with the baldest topic. ' He would speak it first in the active voice, then translate it into the passive voice. If that did not eat up enough time he would prcbably put it in the subjunctive mood or change the tenses or otherwise diversify it. If there was still an hour or two to spare he could put the record on backwards and deliver it that way. Time was an enemy that our forefathers did not fear -they could alway s tire it out. Some of their speeches must have encroached on eternity But now -alas! or ha! ha'. -which - ver exclamation you prefer- there is a hinge. Budget speeches are delivered n forty minutes, the most momentous deliverances consume a bare half-hour. We art all for crispness. Brevityo has become the soul of wit even in Parliament. speeches that tvill keep two thousand five hundred dollars in sight there is nobody to make -them. Did I say nobody? 1 except LaFortune of Jacques Cartier, who is a fount of eloquence running o'er, but he does not exercise hid gift. INhat Parliament asks now is not long speeches but long subjects. fruitful themes which will accommodate a large number of orators. The l'eace Treaty and the League of Nations look like ,uch a theme, • bu it is deliberately surrendered by a , Parliament which is still a legal three! weeks away from that twenty-five hun- dred dollars! What Is the rea • i? of the House regar e as a ticklish - topic, something to be skated over lest • somebody should ripe up and call some- I body el -e disloyal. There was a general lack of frankness on a subject which has, been debated in England for more than four months and wh ch has called ftarth • journalists and statesmen who do not ! believe that the Treaty of Versailles and ' the League of Nations are the last word of wisdom. On the contrary. they see many grave mistakes -too mucn kirglefess to the Hun, too much truckling to Presi- dent %Yaw" tan much latitude for the reparation committee. too much consider- ation for the internationel Jew in the financial clauses - and they make no bones of saying so. The debate tn the Caliadian Parliament was not only brief but timid. Only two Quebec members, like LaPointe and noon, showed boldness. It lacked ank- ess. It touched only the fringe of emendous subject, fraught with "Faye milts to the aestiny of Canada. Both sides seemed to want to get away from a topic which placed the lighted candle on the powder barrel. Truth did not emerge naked from her well. She was hinted at rathe• than blurted out. In some re- spects -notably when it comes to diecum- ing Imperial relatione - we are not only more English than the Englith but more English than the -forint English.

In the days of our fathers and grand- fathers rheumatism was thought to be the unavoidable penalty of middle life and old age. Almost every elderly person had rheumatism as well as many young people.

It was thought that rheumatism was the mere effect of exposure to cold and damp, and it was treated with liniments and fait applications. which sometimes gave temporary relief, hut did not cure the trouble. In those days there were thousand: of rheumatic cripples.

An Old-timer Recalls Elections in Huron FA% Years Ago. The following letter appeared last wee in The Seaforth Expositor: .. Port Hurun. Mich., Sept. 6, 1919. A short time ago Mr. Isaac Carling barrister. of Exeter. gave me a copy of th poll books for the townships of Tucker emith and Hay at the election in 186 in which his father, the late Isaac Carling. was the Conwrvative candi date and Robert Gibbons. of Gode rich, was the Reform canchdate for the local House. The election was held in the harvest season, and there were tyst days' voting, and as this was prior to the introduction ol the ballot every man' name was taken down and he voted operilSr for the candidate of his choice.

Both Govern- i merits at their inception were stionosed I to be coalitkm, but it was not long til both were charged with being Tory. and The Globe, wh ch at this time was very ably_ edsted by the late George Brown, vigorously opposed both.
