The Herald, 1912-06-14, Page 6RELEASE OF KATE MAIECKA AN ENGLISHWOMAN EXILED TO SIBERIA.. Sentenced to I'm Years ht, Prison in Poland and Exile After, wards. Urgent and influential appeals ere being addressed to the 'British Government to take immediate ac- tion to secure the release of Miss Kate Malecka, the young English- woman upon whom the brutal sen- tence of exile to Siberia has been passed after a trial in Russia. A deputation. of members of Parlia- ment has waited upon Sir Edward Grey to lay before him certain facts. The statement that Miss Malecka will be exiled to Siberia for life was confirmed by Reuter's Warsaw cor- respondent, who telegraphed as fol- lows :— "According to an explanation re- ceived from Miss Malecka's counsel, the sentence passed upon her in- volves the deprivation of all civil rights, and. after. the four years' penal servitude, exile to Siberia for life. In Siberia she will be obliged to live where ordered to by the police, without having the right of leaving the ,prescribed locality." This is the first time that such a sentence has been passed upon A BRITISH SUBJECT, and is causing the deepest resent- ment among all classes in Britain. The announcement that Miss Ma- lecka's real sentence' is one of four years' penal servitude, to be fol- lowed by exile to Siberia for life, has kindled a great fire of indigna- tion. What the horror of her posi- tion. will be is not even yet quite understood. r there are no penal servitude pri- sons in Warsaw. She will there- fore, in all probability, be sent di- rect to one of those infernos of tyranny, the prisons in or near to the penal settlement of Siberia it- self, and will serve the four years Mistress of Ceremonies and Carver there before she tome's to the corn- —Announced Courses. partitive enjoyment of such liberty In the matter of old time as is obtainable by the exiles. eti- She will be at the mercy of the quette at the table one recalls the most inhuman creatures of Russian part played by the lady of the brutality.

Up the Stomach to do the Work Nature Intends It Should. Indigestion should not be neglect- ed far a moment, for by depriving. the body of its proper nourishment through the food, the trouble grows steadily worse. Neither should stimulating medicines; which ruin the already weak stomach by making it work beyond its strength, be used; nor pre-digested foods, which do not excite a flow of the digestive fluids, and by disuse cause the stomach to grow weaker. No- where is the tonic treatment by Dr. Williams' rink Pills, more clearly ueefnl. The principle of this treat- ment is to enable the stomach to do its own work by building up the blood and giving -tone to the nerves. When these are once restored to their normal health and indigestion disappears and the cure is perma- nent. Here is an experience with this treatment. Mr. John Brenen- stal, Calgary, Alta., says: "For years I was an almost constant suf- ferer from indigestion, and natur- ally because there was much nutri- tious food which I could not eat ow- ing to the pain and discomfort which followed, I was .becoming much run. down. I tried many medi- cines, but none of 'the'm helped me until I began the use of Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills. After taking a few boxes I was much better and in the course of a couple of months was quite well, and could eat any food set before me." If you are a sufferer .from indi- gestion, or any trouble due to bad blood ox weak nerves, you can be- gin to cure yourself to -day by tak- ing Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

Purchasing Securities on. the Instalment Plan. The articles contributed by "]investor"' are for the sole purpose of gutdtng prom pectve investors. and, if possible, of ear (ng them from losing money; through placing it in "wild -cat" efiterprises. The. Impartial and reliable 'character of the information may be relied upon. The Writer of these artielea and the pabltsher of this paper have n&: interests to serve in commotion with this matter other thee those of the render. The French are .generally known as a nation of savers. They are, .:however, more than this, they are a nation of In- vestors. Every French man and woman have an inherent ambition to lay by a small amount from each year's Earnings to keep them in their old age, and most of them do so. For investmen0 they par - chase the "renter" --which is the Govern- ment bond of the French nation, and which may be had in small denominations. However, it isn't about the French that T want to talk. Canadians have in tome measure fol. lowed the lead of the French. The amannt of savings bank deposits per 'o•tpita is very high—about $95 for each inhabitant, or taking an average of four to the fam- ily, about $360 for each family. On tnis sum. however, the income is not gre+,i— $10.40 a year. A Chinaman, it is said, can subsist on about $10 a year—in China —but no white person would care to try. However, this sum only represents a part of the savings of Canadians. ,Many of those who build up a reserve ngriost a rainy day invest the money in aecurilies, and some, unfortunately, in mining stocks. The amount of the former, if they could be compiled, would certainly more than double the per oapifp, amount of savings. However, the point is that. Canadians as yet are not an investing nation. The number of Canadians who hold Domin- ion of Canada, bonds are so few thatone might almost say they could .be counted on one's fingers. Very few Cauadians own any of our Provincial ',bonds, :and scarcely fifteen per cent. of our munici- pal debentures were placed here during 1911. When it comes to other classes of bonds there is a different story, for the greater part of 1911's output of . Canadian Industrial bonds went into the hands of Canadian investors. This shows a distinct distaste on the part of Canadians for conservatism. In- dustrial bonds, as a class, are by no means the highest type of investment, al- though there are several issues on the market that ono can purchase without misgiving. However; this shows some- thing more. Practically no bonds but in- dustrials are, as yet, issued in denomina- tions less than $600. I say as yet becausb there is an unmistakable tendency on the part of all corporations to issue "baby bonds." as -they are often called. The fact that one may invest so small a sum as $100 in a bond which is certainly, in the majority of cases, is far safer than even most investment stooks has induced many careful people of small means to invest . in the more stable security. This, no doubt, accounts in no small measure for the popularity of industrial bonds, though, of course, the higher rate that they bear is a contributing factor of un- questionable importance. The inexperienced investor, however, is prone to overlook the foot that even where bonds are issued in denominations greater than he can afford at the mo- ment he may still purchase them, A nuiuber of Canadian investment houses are prepared to sell bonds on the install- ment Plan so that one may buy a sound $600 or $1,000 municipal debenture, pay down oneor two hundred dollars and pay' up the rest when convenient. Of course, the house charges interest on the unpaid balance, but at the same time this is offset by the interest which the bond itself bears. Many investors like to pur• chase bonds in this way, as it gives them an incentive for saving, as they are na- turally eager to pay off the balance due and receive their security. By laying up a reserve of this sort and. as a result of the forced saving, invest- ing becomes a habit. Undoubtedly, not only saving, but investing, • becomes see- ond nature to most people who have gone in for it seriously, and like all habits, it is hard to break. Unlike most other ha- bits, however, it is one which no thought- ful person would discourage. The French have the investment habit and it is time for Canadians generally to acquire it. A little practice is all that is required for a large number of people who make no attempt at saving, for, un- til one makes a determined effort, it is not fair to say that one's income is too small to admit of nutting any of it by. When Canadians acquire this habit—and our savings bank deposits show that no small proportion have it in an enoouraging measure—our prosperity will no longer defend, as it does now, on the willingness of the British investors to take our se- curities.

Not Injurious to the Eyes if a Few Rules Are Observed. To those addicted to the practice of reading in bed the remarks of Dr. Carl Seiler will be of interest. He states that there is no valid rea- son. to be urged against using the eyes in a proper manner in a re- cumbent position—such use is the least tiresome and can be persisted in for longer periods without dam- age than any other position, says the London Globe. We all know that grave damage is often done by reading' in a re- cumbent posture, but therein possi- bly some oculists are at fault. Had it been the universal practice dur- ing the last twenty or thirty years to give careful directions how to read lying down instead of saying to one and all, "You must not read lying down," there would be less near sight and better eyes in the community than now exist. Three easily avoided errors cause all the harm possible from reading lying down, the first often leading to the other two. They are insuffi- cient or wrongly directed light, short reading distance, and tipping the book out of n plane at right an- gles to the line of vision. If, however, every one reading ly- ing down will so arrange his lounge or bed that the light comes over the head without striking the eyes, and falls well upon the page; if he will hold his book at a long reacting dis- tance and_take care that the line of letters shall be. at right angles to the line ofvision he can be sure of doing his eyes no more harm tha if he were sitting up. More than this, there is much -pa itively in favor of reading lyi down. Dr. Seiler concludes: "T recumbent posture allows more r of the bodily structures than, sitting posture, and there is gre possibility of resting and repai that position."
