to maintain proper standards of dignity and honor between all return-
ed soldiers.

fered and died for the nation. To see to the erection of monuments
to their valor and the establishment of an Annual Memorial Day.

families of enlisted men.
We need your co-operation, "Unity is Strength," our aim is
to see that the man who served his country in its hour of peril is
given a square deal, we don't want charity, we don't want the public
imposed on by men claiming to be returned men and appealing to
them on the statement that they have served at the front and are now,
reduced to selling from door to door shoe laces, pictures and useless
magazines.
Those who are disabled should be paid adequate pensions, and
united we shall see that they are paid, all who are able to work should
be given employment and it will be our duty to see that they get it.
We want you and all returned men to join us, we need you and
in your own 'interest you need us.

Goderich Signal:—At the service in
North street Methodist church last
Sunday morning the pastor made re-
ference to the great loss sustained by
'the country in the passing of Sir
Wilfrid Laurier.
"Few, perhaps, in the congregation,"
said Dr. Rutledge, "agreed with Sir
Wilfrid Laurier in everything, Some
scarcely agreed with hint in anything,
but, whatever tate political affiliations, I
am sure we are all agreed that he was
tt flan for whom Canada should be
thankful, and of whom we must always
be proud.' Like his great opponent,
Sir John A. P1cDonald, his personality
was unique and fascinating, and mag-
nectic to an extraordinary degree. In
their ability to win the admiration of
their 0ppolhents and the passionate
devotion of their followers these two
great Wren stood alone in our national
life. You have heard' much of Sir
Wilfrid's moving eloquence; whetiner
you agreed with hint or not, you always
felt he agreed with himself, and ,you
found it difficult to get away from the
charm of his oratory, Those who
syinpalhetically followed his policies
tv(11 all admit that he was a courageous
ratan, which partly accounts tor his
hold on the popular heart, People will
excuse mistakes, but they have no
liking for a coward. Ile was at clean
main with every opportunity for enrich-
ing himself, no bribe ever stack to his
hand, His personal life required 110
explanation or apology, and ' to his
honor be it said, he insisted on the
sante standard for all his colleagues,
Perhaps one of the finest things about
this dead leader was his home life.
It was (deal, and an example for all
men. He • loved Canada, and. was al-
ways loyal to the British Empire, This,
as most of you know, is not an easy
country to govern, The two great
races which snake up the bulk of our
population have more antagonisms than
affinities. As a Mediator between the
tivo peoples., we owe the great states-
man an over whelming debt, and he
host be an intensh marrow partisans
who dues not feel the loss that has
fallen. upon the comniiy in this respect
in the removal of Sir Wilfrid. Few
of us agreed with all that lie did, and
the positions he .sometimes' took, but
with all impulses and mistakes reckon-
ed—and there were some, and inane•
tinges serious—still, most of us believe
that he tried to do his duty, as God

Laid /p For 2 Months
WITH PAINS IN BACK..
Pain in the back is one of the first signs
showing that the kidneys are not in the
condition they should`be and it should
be gotten rid of imnlediateiy,'if neglected,
serious kidney troubles are . likely to
follow.
There is a way to "shake off" for ever
the constant pain of backache, the annoy-
ance of urinary troubles and all 'dangers
of kidney ills. Go to your druggist or
dealer; get a box of Doan's Kidney Pills;
take a few doses and see how quickly
your backache will disappear.
Mr. laugh Morton, Daysland, Alta.,
writes:—"I am glad to feel it my duty
to let you know what great relief 1 found
by using your Doan's Kidney Pills. T
was laid up for two months with pains in
my back and I found relief after having
taken half a box of "Doan's." I cannot
recommend them too highly to anyone
having weak kidneys, as they have been
a great help to me."
The phenomenal success of Doan's
Kidney Pills in all parts of the world has
brought forth many imitations. See that
you get "Doan's" when you ask for them.

A car following another car ha:: a
' richt to pass the car in front but
>hould first give n, 1150 and enable the
a.ther car to pull off the road. Where
1 t Sratries to pass the car hi front it i roust slake sure there is ample room
and it is responsible if there is not.
1 in this case there was plenty of room -
1 end defendant is responsible for the
accident, A car following another car
should follow at such a speed that it
can he stopped at any time if the car
in front stops, There are many reas-
ons why a car may be stripped un-
avoidably and suddenly and the car:
following must be far enough behind
or going so slowly as to be under
con trot.
The evidenoe as above sunnmarised
clearly points to the cause of this'ac-
cident. The defendant was driving -
close to the plaintiff, He knew, or
should have known the car might stop
suddenly or stall- without the driver
being able to warn anyone coating
behind. It was therefore his darty to•
Ise on the alert and have his car fully
under control so if a sudden contin-
gency arose, as it did here, he would'
he in a position either to stop Iitis car
or turn to the left and pass the. plain-
tiff's car without being in sucib a posi-
tion as he found himself so close to.
the plaintiff's car that he was camel" -
led either to run Into it or attempt, to
tura out and dash past. He chose the
' latter course and, as might naturally
be expected, he ran into and injured
the plaintiff's car, It was fortunate
that the injuries were no worse. The
occupants of both cars. amongst whom.
were ladies and children, aright have
been seriously injured and Hie conse-
'quences very grave. I can't help stat-
ing here that this should be' a warming
to all car drivers You don't own, the
roads. You have, like others, a right
to use the roads but in doing so you,
should take care in fact it is your duty
to remember the°bther fellow, If driv-
ers could only get this idea firmly
fixed in their minds accidents would
not happen and people who use the
roads lawfully for either business or
I pleasure would be ahre to do so with
some degree of cotrnfurt. The reck-
less or careless driver must be taught
to be careful not only for Isis own-
safety
wnsaafety but for that of others.
Again remarking that it is very for-
tunate that the accident was not mare
serious, I have 00 hesitation in giving
Judgment for the plaintiff for the dam-
ages Incurred with costs 10 be paid hi
