FINALLY
DR. WOOD'S
NORWAY PINE SYRUP
CURED HIM.
Mr. Wallace H. Grange, Vancouver,
B.C., writes: "During a cold spell here
about the middle of last October (1913),
I caught a cold which got worse despite
all treatmeuts I could obtain, until
about November. 22nd, a friend said,
'Why not try Dr, Wood's Norway
Pine Syrup?' Really, I had no faith in
it at the time as 1 had tried nearly every
other remedy 1 had heard of, to 310 avail„
but I thought I would give this last
remedy a trial. I purchased a 50 cent
bottle, and in three days I was feeling
a different man. My cold was so hard,
and the coughing so prolonged, that
vomiting occurred after a hard spell of
eoughing. I carried the bottle in my
pocket, and every time I was seized with
a coughing spell I would take a small dose.
I can most heartily recommend Dr.
Wood's Norway Pine Syrup to anyone
with a severe cold, as its powers are most
marvelous, and I never intend being
veithoutit at all tines."

that you get what you ask for. It is

trial and financial institutions in

borough in 1850 and has been en-
gaged in business in Lindsay sinoe

been connected with public under-
takings of one character or an-
other. In 1904 he -was appointed
to the Dominion Grein Survey
Board; is a Councillor of the Cana-
dian Manufacturers' Association;
Chairman of the Ross Memorial As-
sociation; and is a generous patron
of amateur sport, and is one of the
most widely known curlers in Can
-
oda.
Mr. W. S. Dingman, Vice -Chair-
man, is known throughout Canada
as an enterprising and successful
journalist. Born in 1858; he ap-
proaolfed the editorial chair

One .of the first duties of the
Board will be to inalce-ti survey of
the Provin.oe, and establish new
districts, fewer in number than the
101 that now exist.
The appointment of this Provin-
cial Commission is the outstanding
feature of the new Liquor Lioense
Legieletion, The Board has juris-
diction over the entire Province
and will supersede altogether the
old Boards. The authority of the
Board in the ecianinistration of the
Liquor License Law shall be su-
prenie and absolutely independent
of political control.
The Board shall have all th.e au-
thority of the present Liquor Li-
cense Commissioners and ma,ny
additional far-reaehing powers.
The powers conferred by the Act
upon the new Board are all of a
restrictive nature.
The Boards has full authority to
place sueh further restrictions upon
the liquor traffic as it may deem
advisable, but it cannot enlarge its
privitlegers beryond what now ex -
lets.
Care has been ta,ken in the fram-
ing of the legislation creating the
Provincial Board to provide ma-
chinery that will enable the Board
to administer the law in conformity
with publie sentiment in every
locality.
The law provides that two mem-
bers of the Board will form a quo-
rum. The purpose of this is to en-
able the members of the Board to
visit every part of the Province and
to examine into local conditions.
The Booed roust hold at least one
meeting eaoh year in every county
town in the Province, 'such meeting
shall be open to the public -
1. To hear applicants and con-
sider applications for licenses.
2. To hear representations from
any source in opposition to the
granting of any license.
3. To hear re,presentations of any
other nature regarding the
Liqu•or License Law or the en -
farce nt of it
me •
- 4. Notickroof such meetings must
be advertised locally for two
weeks, and such notice must
contain -
(a) The nam•e of the applicant.
(b) The character of the license
applied for...
(c)A description of the premises
sought to be licensed.
(d) The total number of existing
tavern and shop licenses in
each municipality in the
. county.
(e) The total number of applica-
tions for t'a.vern and shOp
liceeeses in each municipality
in the county.
The extent and far-reaching ef-
fect of the new law and the advan-
tages that will follow from the ex-
haustive powers conferred upon the
new Board will readily be appre-
ciated when it is understood that
the new Board may -
1. Subdivide th.e Province into
new license districts in sueli
manner as experience and in-
vestigation may show to be
advantageous to the better
administration of the law.
2. Issue any form of restricted or
special lieeneet such as a
"beer" lieen.se in any locality.
3. May issue licenses at any time
of the year for any ecriocl of
the year.
4. May shorten the hours within
which, liquor may be eold in
taverns or shops throughout
the Provinee, or in any por-
tion, but cannot extend the
hours beyond what the law
now provides,
5. May make regulations for im-
proved hotel eceommodation
to meet the requirements in
any locality and enforce the
same either by suspension or
cancellation of the license.
6. May, in its ddsoretion, suspend
or cenoel a lioense at any time.
7. May conduct inquiry into any
matter the Board may d.eern
necessary and requrre evi-
dence to be given under oath.
a May supersede, the neoessity

prohibiting the sale or other
disposal of liquor in any por-
tion of the Prbvinee- ,
(a) For all time,
(b) For any particular day.
(c) For any special period.
(d) To any class of persons.
(e) During any special. hours.
The new license law further pro-
vides that all liquor shops through-
out the Province shall h.ereaS ter be
closed at seven o'clock pan. every
night, and adds Labor Day to the
list cifNry days.
Industrial Conditions in Germany.
The American As.sociation of
Commerce and Trade in 13erlin has
published regularly since November
7, 1914, a weekly report on the gen-
eral conditions in Germany during
the European war. Its contents
may- well serve to offset the exag-
gerated tales of .sUffering and fam-
ine reported .at the beginning of the
wa.r; but the picture is in many
ways dark enough. There are fig-
ures •showing the number of anion
workers now at the front -from the
metal trade 170,677; from the wood
workers 43,877; from the factory
workers 51,166; from the brewery
workers 14,966. The writers of the
report are satisfied because unem-
ployment has steadily and notice-
ably decreased. They do not con-
sider that the state of the families
of the enlisted .men is even now
precarious in the extreme, and that
when the men return from the war
unemployment stares them in the
face. The industrial world will be
in no position to employ tarp
faeces of workers or to pay good
salaries, and thousands of men will
be idle. The condition of the wo-
men at the present time is deplor-
able; the majority of the female
members of the factory workers
union are said to be out of work.
Economy in production is of course
.felt by the workingmen sooner than
by the producers. The amount paid
for workmen's insurance has con-
siderably deerea.sed and the de-
crease is not entirely due to the fact
that there are fewer workers.
The Association is optimistic in
its final statement. We .can draw
seaurs :own conclusions. The report
Says:
'In summing-, up the situation it
can be safely estimated that ebout
one-third of the German industry is
suffering under the war, one-third
is able to shift alone comfortably,
while the remaining'nthird isoccu-
pied to its fullest capacity.- The
confines .between these groups re-
mained clearly outlined in the be-
ginning, but pre.graduaely growing
less distinet as the adaptation40
the situation progresses, and a
more even distribution of work is
now taking place, and while the
industries are not gaining in
strength they are in no way losing
any of their vitality. In conclusion
one may say that Germany's indus-
try after the war will undoubtedly
resume its peaceful activity with
undiminished vigor.'

III. Saul Overcome by an Evil
Spirit (Verses 8-12).
8. A great slaughter - David's
great victory which saved Saul
from destruction was the cause of
the new outburst o.E Sa,u1's un-
quenchable hatred of David.
9. An evil spirit -See 1 San. 16.
14. The result of Saul's jealousy
was an unholy brooding which
drove him to fits of madness. Saul's
jealousy did not have its origin in
David. David, it will be remem-
bered, was brought to Saul for the
purpose 6f dispelling his distem-
per. Had David not com4 across
his path, Saul's jealous.. spirit
would have . been kindled to red -
heat by some one else. •
With his spear in his hand -The
spear was the scepter of the king,

house the spear in his hand; at

Sam. 20. 33); when he slept in

ra'elicustom lives in that of the
modern Arab.
10. David fled --This was the be-
ginning of Da.vicl's life as a. fugi-
tive (see Psa, 59.-3, 4).
11. In the morning-- Saul was
not SO much crazed as to be bereft
of all his wit. "He imagined that
])avid would go home to his wife.
He knew that to seek ham out there
would rouse the townspeople, who
would rally to the protection of
their favo-rite hero. Saul, there-
fore, would, wait until the morning,
when David happened to leave his
house, before making any attack on
him. As Psa. 59 shows, David was
in danger not from Saul only, hut
from Ruane in Saul'S employ.

TRIBUTE 17.0 BRITISH PRESS.
Italy Admires Work of Raising
Army Even by Reveres.
The Tribuna, of Rome publishes
an article from its London 'corre-
spondent, Signor Ga,stene Chiesi,
entitled "The 1arvels of Britisek
Patriotism : What the Press lies'e
Done for the Army," in which the
following eloquent tribute is paid
to the work of .British journals and
journalists during the war;
The very re.verses of the allies in
France during the first month of
war were .ebly used by the press to
stimulate patriotism and to induce
young men to enlist without delay..
A consciousness of the national and
Imperial peril that seemed to be -
imminent was created in the
masses. . . . Having thus received
the first impulse, the great patriot-
ic movement continued in wonder-
ful fashion. One may term it &pro-
duct of the press, since it was the
press that aroused the youth of the
country, apparently inert and a,pa.-
thetic, or absorbed in its usual
sporting pleasures; it was the press
that cried silence to the working
classes complaining of wages or of
excessive hours of work; it was the
press that 'threatened the specula-
tors and those in seareth ,of illielt
gains; those who held up. food sup-
plies, the ishippers who demanded
exaggerated rates for fre*lats, the
mining companies which rMsed the
price of coal " without reason -the
press which brought about the in.-
tervention 'of Parliament and of tltis,
state in their affairs.
Watching, encouraging, warning,
the daily press has not left.. the
brain of the British citizen a -
meat's rest. It has obliged him to
think da,y and night of the war, of
its fluctuations, of possible dangers,
of incumbent duties and necessary
sacrifices.

This is the contribution spontane-

en by the press to the country. Eng-
land, perhaps, will never succeed in
appreciating at its true value what
she owes to her journalism and to
her journalists.
