(Toronto Star.) A German paper says that (creat Britain has been compelled to Copy Germany. "We are now England's sehoolmastera. 'Militarism' and `organi- zation' are in England to -day the catch- words upon which the life of the nation turns." Well, that may be true. We may have to borrow some ideas from Ger- many. We would be very foolish not to buy more machine guns because Germany pays special attention to that weapon. But is Germany really pleas- ed? We read in another German paper a bitter complaint at the dropping of bombs on Karlsruhe. We do not ob- serve that the writer chuckles and says, "We are now England's schoolmasters." We do not want to copy Germany's brutal treatment of civilians, but if Germany takes such pride in being our schoolmaster, it seems strange that Germany should complain if her own practices are imitated. It is quitt. likely' that Germany will succeed in hardening the heart of the world against herself, but that is a very doubtful triumph. Germany is despotic. She may succeed in making free countries consent to limit or suspend their freedom. But will that please or help Germany? Germany is the great exemplar of militarism. She may con- vert pacifists of other countries into militarists, in order to smash Germany. But is Germany really eager to sacrifice herself in order that she may be able to boast of being the schoolmaster of the world? It used to be said that our own Ned Hanlan could beat all his rivals easily until he taught them how to row. We do not like to drag Ned Hanlan into the discussion even by way of illustration. But suppose we take some lessons from Germany, which of us will benefit? The South Bruce election petition filed December 5, 1913, by James T. Crawford and J, A. Garland protesting against the return of Reuben E. Truax, Liberal, has been finally abandoned, and Charles Garvey secured the return of the $1,000 deposit placed with the ac- countant of the high court at Osgoode Hall. It is understood that the cross - petition against Weliington D. Cargill will also now be abandoned. The seas are open to us, and the con- tinuance of that state of things was never so secure as it is now, The enemy's submarine "blockade" has had no effect whatever in restricting our imports of food, and it is hard to see how many imaginable development of it could be otherwise than negligible in this particular connection. But what we have to face is the prospect of an altogether unprecedented competition for the surplus produce of the neutral food -growing countries in the evitahle and universal economic disturbance that lies ahead; which means higher and higher prices imposed where our own Government can do nothing to control them.

It may arise from a variety of causes, such as lack of exer- cise, hard study, improperly ventilated. rooms oil workshops, poor digestion, etc. The chief symptoms are extreme pallor of the face and gums, rapid breathing and palpitation of the heart after slight exertion, headaches, dizzi- ness and a tendency to hysteria, swelling of the feet and limbs and a distaste fur food. All these symptoms may. not be present, but any of them indicate anaemia which should be properly treat- ed with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. These Pills make new rich blood which stimu- lates and strengthens every organ and every part of the body. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have made thousands of anaemic people bright, active and strong. The following is one of the many cures. Mrs, Phillips, wife of Rev. W. E. Phillips, Princeton, Ont., says: "Some yehrs ago, while living .with my parents in England, 1 fell h victim of anaemia. The usual compli- cations set in and soon I became but a shadow of my former self. My mother, who had been a former nurse of many years experience. tried all that her knowledge suggested; tonics of various kinds were tried, and three doctors did their best for me, but without avail, and a continued gradual decline and death was looked for. "Later my parents decided to joinmy brothers in Canada, and it was confident- ly expected that the ocean voyage, new climate and new conditions would me. For a time I did experience' 1 ary benefit, but was soon as it ever. I was literally bloodl extreme pallor and genes; appearance of my cAnditi many experiences THE PEOPLE ARE TO BLAME. (Montreal Mail.) The secret of the various political scandals which engage the attention of the Canadian people from time to time, and of which the Manitoba case is the most spectacular at the moment, is campaign funds, says The Winnipeg Telegram. This is so true that it is surprising so little attention is paid to the fact. Everybody seems to be willing to condemn graft and corruption, once the graft and corruption are discovered. Somebody rings the fire alarm, and the people rush to stand around and deplore the holocaust of reputations and ideals. But nobody seems to take any preven- tive action before the fire starts. Can it be that the public enjoys the "fun"? It costs a great deal of money to run a political campaign. This money may amount to a large sum and yet be spent in legitimate campaign expenses, such as advertising, the renting of halls, transportation expenses, the payment of speakers and canvassers, etc. This money has to be procured, and to pro- cure it is one of the duties of political leaders. The people who are ready at the slightest chance to talk "corruption" don't give a cent. The members of the party give a certain amount. That makes up the only a small part of what is required, and to furnish the balance business men who demand value for money expended are usualy ready. The system is ridiculous, and yet it is in vogue all over the country. With publicity of campaign contrib- utions demanded frcm each and every political party, ninety per cent. of the scandals which have shocked the public of this country during the past ten years would never have developed. Scores of the public men whose reputa- tions are gone would be living to -day without a stain, and this would mean much for them and for their families as well as for the country. Secret campaign funds are unfair to the men in puplic office and unfair to the people themselves. The public which rests complacently under a sys- tem like this has no right to raise its hands in holy horror when the truth sometimes comes out, through some particularly clumsy transaction on the part of some particular political lead- ers. The horrors of Germany's method of waging war are not so disgusting as 120 acres, 100 acres cleared, 20 acres hard wood bush; well fenced; good state cultivation; wind mill; good water; bank barn 82x52; good out -buildings; two storey brick eattaire. 11 rooms.

To the Editor:— Here is a lesson that might open the eyes of anyone. The facts here stated are on the authority of the Attorney General of Kansas City, Kansas. , While the State of Kansas has had a prohibition law for over thirty years, there were a number of cities and towns that resisted the law adopted a system of monthly fines which amounted to as much as the license fee, and among these was Kansas City, Kansas. Right across the river was Kansas City, Missouri, and between these two cities there was naturally great' rival- ry. . In 1006 Attorney General Coleman signified his intention of obeying the law and closing all drinking places on the Kansas side of the river. This caused consternation among busi- ness men who feared that the majority of business would go to the wet side of the river. A large and influential depilta- tion of Kansas City Politicians, banters, lawyers. merchants and others called on the Attorney General to pursuade him to drop a project which they felt sure would ruin that part of the city and their arguments were very im- pressive. The Attorney General list- ened patiently but informed them that he was there to enforce the law and that he intended to do his duty. They went away an indignant and angry lot of men. A year later Mr. Jackson was appoint- ed Attorney General and it was rumor- ed that he would not enforce the law. Soon a deputation of the same men as had called on Attorney General Cole- man called on Mr. Jackson, but they came on a different mission. They said "For God's sake don't let the old rot- ten order of things return to Kansas City, for it never was as prosperous as is now." Cases like the above make one won- der why business men don't continue to drive out the drink traffic that is such an injury to business. I suppose they think, like the men who first called on Attorney General Coleman, that prohib- ition would injure business. Wbat a mistake they are making. H. Arnott. M. 3., M.
