EDITORIAL NOTES
The fate of the Empire, which hangs
upon the issue of the great war, the
part that belongs to Canada in the con-
flict, and the necessity, more particular-
ly in the face of recent grave compli-
cations, that the efforts already made
by this country, splendid though they
have been, shall be at once redoubled,
was emphasized last evening before the
Canadian Club by Mr. N. W. Rowell,
leader of the Liberal party in Ontario,
in one of the most eloquent and stirring
addresses eyer delivered before a Regina
audience. The distinguished visitor
from the East made a most profound
impression upon his hearers, and the
applause with which his remarks were
frequently broken, and which, at their
conclusion, was long continued, was, in
its spontaneous enthusiasm, as far re-
moved as it could well be from the
somewhat formal tributes common to
such occasions. -Regina Leader.
PROTECTING THE PEOPLE.
To the Editor: -
In 1910 Governor Stubbs of Kansas
delivered an address in Chicago in which
he spoke in part as follows: "Prohibi-
tion in Kansas is net the result of at-
mospheric conditions. Reason was at
the bottom of it all. It was not brought
about by fanatics but by sane, sober,
patriotic folks who bad longer heads
and more common sense than the aver-
age American people had at that time.
It was not a theory. It was as
old as the abuse of liquor. Eleven
hundred years before Christ an Emperor
of China decreed that all the grape
vines be pulled up by the roots and
hnrnt to ashes. China has a sober
nation ever since. Centuries before
Christ Lycurgus the great law giver of
his people did precisely the same thing
in Greece. The Carthaginians prohibit-
ed drinking in the army 300 years before
the Christian Era. Draco, in his laws
made drunkenness a capital offence.
All through history you will find it and
wherever it was observed the nations
became greater and more virtuous.
Prohibition is the doctrine of self-de-
fence. Kansas is simply protecting
its people from the arch enemy of
human happiness. Kansas homes are
protected from an infinitely worse
enemy to society than the burglar.
Prohibition has simply muzzled a brute
that is ten thousand times more vicious
than a mad dog. It has merely cut out
a useless expense that was more bur-
densome on the people than all the
state and county taxes combined."
When the people of Canada wake up to
the terrific truth of that last sentence
the liquor traffic will be doomed.

Is a Hustler.
Mr, H. B. Elliott has just completed
eighteen years as editor of the Wingham
Times and twenty-seven years of ser-
vice on the paper. He is a hustler, does
a big business and turns out a good
sheet. -Listowel Banner. Thanks for
your kind words, brother. The editor
of the TIMES received his first instruc-
tions in the printing business in the
office of the Listowel Banner.
Choice Strawberries.
Mr. Chas. Campbell, of East Wawa -
nosh brought four choice boxes of
strawberries to town on Monday. Only
thirty berries were required to fill each
box so it will be easily understood the
choice quality of the fruit. The berries
were sold to Messrs C. C. Munro, N. S.
McGee, A. J. Nicholls and H. Campbell
at 50 cents per box and the S2 was
handed over to be applied to the funds
of the Red Cross Society.
Best Dressed Window
J. Walton McKibbon of the Rexall
Store, agent in Wingham for Patter -
son's Chocolates, was successful in be-
ing prize winner in the recent contest
for the best window display of "Pat-
terson's of Toronto" Chocolates. There
were 1I2 contestants in the display con-
test scattered all over Canada. The
window was dressed by Mr. A. P.
Knechtel of the Rexall store staff.
Rebate for Ford Owners.
Big business men compelled to sign a
couple of hundred checks for incidental
expenses every month occasionally
realize what is meant by writer's
cramp. The Ford Motor Co. is making
preparations to attend to a little office
detail of this kind in connnection with
the $15,000,000 bonus to be distributed
among Ford owners in August. The
company is about to write 300,000 checks
for $50 each, to be mailed, to owners
throughout the world. A staff of 30
stenographers is to be emptoyed in this
task requiring 6 weeks for completion.

NERVOUS CHILDREN
Hardy Study and Too lithe
Koro's a Taneie.
How easy it is to mix up the aver-
age business man was demonstrated
the other day when the son of a local
merchant leaned against his father's
Exercise Leans to $t. knee and innocently asired:
"Daddy, is today tomorrow?"
Vitus Dance
"No, my son, of course today isn't
There is much criticism of modern ( "But you said it was," continued the
tomorrow," answered the father,
educational methods that require too
much work of school children, allow-
ing them too little time for play and
preventing sufficient out-of-door exer-
cise. When the study of music or any
other accomplishment, with the neces-
sary practice, is added the strain is in-
creased. Under these conditions the
blood becomes impoverished and fails
to nourish the nerves. The child be-
comes restless, and twitching of the
muscles follow. Sometimes the child
stumbles in walking and drops what it
tries to hold. Pallor, listlessness
and irritability are symptoms that
early show that the blood and nerves
are failing to meet the demands made
upon them, and that St. Vitus dance
has fastened its hold upon the child.
In this condition there is no tonic
can equal Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,
which build up the blood, strengthen
the nerves and safely help to meet the
demands of the growing child. Out-of-
door exercise, nourishing food, plenty
of sleep with these tonic pills will
cure even the most severe cases of St.
Vitus dance. We offer the foll. Ing
proof: "Up to the age of ten ; ars."
says Mrs Johnson, of Hem N. S.,
''my son, Calvin, was :.-••'.ealthy and
rugged as any child •.uld be. Then
he began to ..mp that his eyes
hurt him, and f . ' . s in the head, and
began to fall . k in bis studies at
school. The .oticed a twitching of
the muscles . his face and arms,
and later his whole body seemed to be
in constant motion. Our family phy-
sician was called in and pronounced
the trouble a severe attack of St.
Vitus dance. He was under the doc-
tor's treatment for some three months
but did not seem to improve. We had
taken him from school, and were care-
ful that nothing should excite him,
but notwithstanding he grew worse,
and the least start would bring on at-
tacks of hysteria. This went on for
some months until Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills were brought to my attention
and we decided to give him this medi-
cine, After using a few boxes there
was a noticeable improvement, and by
the time he had recovered his former
good health. There has been no sign
of a return of the trouble, and I can
scarcely say how thankful we feel for
the complete restoration of our son's
health."
Parents who find their growing boys
or girls becomine nervous should lose
no time in giving them Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills. You may ward off an at-
tack of St. Vitus dance, or if the trou-
ble has reached that stage the Pills
will effect a cure. Sold by all medi-
cine dealers or by mail at 50 cents a
box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr.
Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville,
Ont.

"When did 1 ever say today was to-
morrow?"
"Yesterday," answered the son.
"Well, it was; today was tomorrow
yesterday, but today is today. just as
yesterday was today yesterday, but is
yesterday today, and tomorrow will be

yesterday and tomorrow ail at once.

sigh of relief. -Louisville TImes.
Origin of "Hip, Hip, Hurra 1"
"Hip, hip, hurrah!" our modern yell
of delight, is said to have an ancient
origin. The word "hip" is supposed to
be composed of the initial letters of
the Latin phrase. "Hierosolyma est
perdita," meaning "Jerusalem is de-
stroyed." the "I" in "hip" being sub-
stituted for the "e" in "est." Wben
the German knf.ghts were persecuting
Jews in the middle ages they are said
to have run. shouting. "Hip, hip!" as
much as to say Jerusalem is destroyed.
"Hurrah" is said to be from the Sla-
vonic "hu -raj," meaning "to paradise;"
hence "hip. hip, hurrah!" would mean
"Jerusalem is lost; we are on our way
to paradise "-Indianapolis News.
Another Topsy.
Little Mary had beard it said that
sister Kate "belonged to her mother's
people," that baby brother was "bis
father over again" and that "Albert
was a Brown."
"Little Mary," the relatives all said,
"doesn't look like anybody."
She followed her mother about the
house one day with an anxious look.
"Mamma," she finally burst forth,
"ain't me people ?"-Indianapolis News.
Coward.
"Before we were married you said
you would gladly dare anything for
me."
"Weil?"
"And now yon stand there and ad-
mit that you're afraid to ask your boss
for a raise." -Detroit Free Press.
Another Job In Sight
"Another good job is going to be
made in the office for somebody."
"How do you know?"
"The boss' daughter is going to be
married and he'll have a son-in-law to
place." -Detroit Free Press.
