' The movement for a larger Po- land takes new strength from the formation of a national council at .Warsaw,' and from the stirring manifesto just issued in its name by the Polish leaders, Count Pyg- munt Wielpolski at their head. The Poles are now in the full tide of war, and with the exception of.some of their brethren in Galicia, have unreservedly thrown in their lot with the Allies. As .a race they be- long to conflicting jurisdictions. There '' are .'4,000,000 in Prussia alone, west and east ; Austria also has her share. Geographically complex, the pro- blem of "unifying" Poland is also politically difficult, ,for at this 'mo- ment its solution waits OD' the out- come of the war and the goodwill of Russia. Thee its people. are, 'already unified by suffering in common is plainly the conviction of the na- tional council. In two territories they have felt'the heavy hand of the oppressor. Of course, it is the Rus Sian tyrant of 'whom we have heard most. His ruthless suppressions of insurrection are still served up in our. historical textbooks, .and the. story of his attempts to extinguish the language and national seirit of Poland, form a part of every liberal education. But the German tyrant has -also been at work. In 1885 40,000 Poles ,were expelled from Posen because they had not ibecome. Prussian citi- ;subjects, as 'a preliminary to meas- ures for colonizing Polish 'districts with Germansettlers. In. 1873 the Polish language was excluded :from the elementary, and later from the secondary schools of Prussia. In 1905 a:decree"'forbade religious in- struction in Polish, and the, Poles were 'eonlspelle4 to pay for having in districts where the Poles formed lessslYtt per cent nt ofthe popu- lation. - lation. --, It is to 1 f th future It Alt Started • Front a Bad Co14 WATFORD)' M.1N FOUND RELIEF IN DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS. guars for against such procedures as these! that the national council appeals to' the "undivided spirit" of Poland and l.ioks forward to a "radiant morrow of reunion for our nation." The Poles need elbow roomilin two directions. Should their aspira- tions be realized it will be possible for the patri'>ts to erect their long projected monument to Kosxinszko in Warsaw and forever ini;ossible for their -children to be brutally flogged for refusing to nee German in Posen. UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO. 3Iany: Professors and Students have Enlisted for the W'ar, Though the military organiza- tions of the Canadian Colleges were in a much more rudimentary condi- tion than those of the .British Uni- versities, a large contribution has already been made to the Arany for the present war from their gradu- ates and undergraduates. The following is an account of what has been dune by the Univer- sity of Toronto: According to our most recent in- formation there are, besides the members of the staff, 104 graduates and Si6 undergraduates, and of these 137 are uftieers and t13 privates. The chief electrieiau and several of the laboratory assistants are also on service, and their places are being kept for them. Professor de Cham and Messrs. lialbaud and Billet f the Department of French in t'ni- versity College have been serving with the )•renvit army since the be- ginning of the war. At present our information is quite incomplete, but we have the name+.,f 53 graduates and (13 under- fira<luatcs who have been accepted for the second contingent. On Friday,. January 2dnd, 1,500 students with their ultleert were reviewed by His Royal Highness the Duke of Connaught. He a<ldres4ed them in part• as follows; ,.I wish to %press to you m very great satis- faction with the splendid turn out you have given are this evening. When I looked at you and saw how you stood to attention and the ad- mirable way in which you marched past, I saw that your cork Since you wete formed, a very few months ago, has been performed with a will, and I can honestly says that I have never ween better results than you have shown me to -day, 'What pleases me still more is the splendid example you young gentlemen are showing to the whole of Canada. You have come forward at a mo- ment alien every man that is able to do anything to help the Empire in a time of stress is needed, and you have done so readily and in a most efficient manner. As an old soldier and as Governor-Ueneal of Canada, I wish to say that no par- ade that I have seen—and I have seen many lately ---has given me more satisfaction than your parade this evening." At the salve time the women stu- dents of the University have shown their determination to be of service by occupying the lhours from foul'. to six in the afternoon, when there is no instruction given in the Uni- versity, with sewing and other work for the Red ross Society. SENSE ABOUT FOOD. Facts Worth Knowing. It is a serious question some- times to know just what to eat uihren a person's stomach is out of order and most foods cause trouble. Grape -Nuts food can be taken at any time with the certainty tliat it will digest. Actual experience of people is valuable to anyone inter- ested. A woman writes: "I had suffered with indigestion for about four years, ever since an attach of ty- phoid fever, and at times could eat nothing but the very lightest food, and then suffer so with my stomach I would wish I never had to eat anything. "I was urged to try Grape -Nuts, and since using it I do not have to starve myself any more, but I can eat it at any time and feel nour- ished and satisfied, dyspepsia is a tilting of the past, and I am now strong and well. "My husband also had an experi- ence with .Grape -Nuts. He was put under the doctor's care, but medi- cine did not seem to do him any goad until he begap leave off ordinary foods and use Grape Nuts. ' It was surprising to see the &lenge in him. He grew better right off, and naturally he has none but words of praise for Grape -Nuts. "Our boy thinks he cannot eat a meal without Grape -Nuts, and he learns so ,fast at school that his teacher comments, on it. I am satis- fied that it is because of the great nourishing elements in Grape - Nuts." This mother is right. Grape Nuts food is a certain and remark- able rebuilder of body, nerves and brain. "There's a Reason." Ever read the above letter? A new one appears from time to time. They are genuine, true, and full of human interest. Mr. ltobt. Taylor, Sr., After Sutter- • ing for Two Years, Tells at the Benefits Ile Got Fro'n Dodd's Kidney Pills. Watford, Ont., Feb. 8th (Special). —Mr. Cobert Tay!,>r, Sr., a. very estimable man .living here, is telling his friends that the pain in his back, from which he suffered for• some time, has disappeared, and that he gives all the credit to Dodd's Kidney Pills. "My trouble started•eith a chid," Mr. Taylor states, "and though I was treated by a doctor I get no permanent relief. I had cramps in my muscles and stiffness in my joints, my sleep, was broken and unrefreshing and I perspired freely with the least exertion. I had at - teaks of rheumatism and sciatica, and though I tried many medicines I found no relief till I tried Dodd's Kidney Pills- 1 must say they were a great benefit to me." Mr. Taylor's ,troubles came from hie kidneys. The diseased kidneys failed to .strain the Marie acid out of the blued and the results were as he has stated. Dudd's Kidney Pills put the kiclrteys in we,rking order, the uric acid was strained out <if the blood, and the troubles went with • TBE BRITISH NAVY. Saving Nation an Enormous Amount of Money. In the course of an article on "No Naval Battle—Why i" which ap- pears in the Fortnightly Review, Mr. Archibald Hurd says that the Gentian fleet, which, daring the past fifteen years cost .4:W5,000,000to maintain, has completely failed to fulfill any single one of the hopes on which it was based. Declaringrl that the British people would do well to be duly grateful for the blessings which have been theirs owing to naval predominance during the past three months, Mr. Hurd says that in the absence of complete command of the sea, the British people would have had to face the following weekly bill: Increase in the -cost of food by 50 per cent., raising the outlay per head of the population from as. to 22s. a week, £9,000,000. Decline in wages bill, about £2,- 000,000. Increase in cost of other necessi- ties and luxuries, £t1,000,000. Loss of shipping, •1'1,000,000. Decline in national income from investments, £8,000,000. Total loss per week, £16,000,000. We thus reach the conclusion, adds Mr. Hurd, that during the past four months of war the navy has been paying dividends to the nation at the rate of £16,000,000 per week, without taking into account the fact that it has spared us moral and in- tellectual damages which are in- calculable. Battle or no battle iu the North Sea, the people of the United Kingdom, not to mention the peoples of the far-flung Domin- ions, have reason for satisfaction that during the years which pre- ceded war they turned a deaf ear to those who urged that the expen- diture on the fleet should be re- duced.
