FROM THE DOMINION CAPITAL. The general opinion at the capital is that Controller Hanna is a clear thinker but not a prompt doer. What the public wants is somebody who will fix prices, not a temporizer who feeds us from time to time with beautifully worded essays on the Duty of Star- vation. . . 'Food Controller Hanna's latest state- ment is that he cannot fix prices of staple articles of food without ruin- ing a host of middlemen in every town, village, city and hamlet in Can- ada. - This is an exaggeration. The middlemen will stand a little ruining. They use the war as an excuse for making the people pay through the nose for the necessaries of life. Their ,interest- in the war is 'as a means of getting -rich quick. They are in no hurry to :have- it end. Food Controller Ilanna doesn't want to ruin these gen - 'time's, who could be docked' fifty per cent, .of their profits and still have a fat jibing. He prefers to ruin the arra 'of consumers the toilers in the shops. and factories, at counters and office desks the wage-earners, who do not. 'share in this artificial war pros- perity which Big Business is now en - joking. Food Controller Hanna's idea is that these are the people who ought to suffer. Food Controller Hann's high analyt- ical mind finds that seven main fac- tors govern the present prices of food. These seven main factors Mr. Hanna places before- the public in his usual. crisp way and puts up as good a case as can be • expected of a man who seeks to make the worse appear the better reason. The Food Controller has stated the premises correctly, but his conclusions are all wrong. His seven main -factors are no news to the public at large. All Food Controller Hanna has done as .a clear thinker is to make them a little clearer. Logic. misapplied at that, is not what the People ask from Mr.Hannanot logic but action. Little hanks are . due to Mr. Hanna for telling us seven things that we knew quite well before. What Food Controller Hanna is asked to do is to remedy a condition, not inform us it exists. All the logic that Food Controller Hanna has in his system is no answer; to . the fact that bacon sells for thirty-eight cents a pound in Detroit an for fifty-five cents a pound . d Y in. Toronto, which is Sir Joseph Fia- velle's home town. Food Controller Hanna mentions as one of the seven factors the unre- strained competition between the great foreign buyers of food stuffs in our markets. This factor has already been investigated by the Trades and Labor Congress, which has suggested from time iro time that the army needs be met first; the home needs be met second,. and that then the surplus shall be : available for export. It should not be the privilege of the pro- fiteer who squeezes the home market in times of peace to desert it for a more remunerative market in times of war. In return for .his fat graft in normal times he has a duty to sell the public what they need at reasonable prices in time of crisis. A competent Department of Agri- culture at Ottawa would know to the last pound what was the production of Canada, and would regulate its, dis- posal equally among those who have claims upon it, the claims being taken in the order of their importance. A competent Department of Agriculture would also see to it- that the surplus production -in one ' provina was . avaii1- agle in another province 1 here.short- age exists. If. it was. 'nding its own business, one of its first duties would - be to equalize distribution throughout Canada and put the kibosh on No. 3 of ,Food Controller Hanna's objections to doing anything about it. But the Department of Agriculture, which has as its Minister, a foxtrot - ter, a golfer, and a social butterfly, seems to have overlooked this little matter. . As for the Bprden Govern - lent generally it has the-. N. R. eal to pull off, which aims t� loot this craw, of $200,000,000, and it can't fford the time to put a little pep in the Hon. Mr. Burrell and his ass s- ates. d a Food Controller Hanna mentions very briefly both. in his text and in his exposition of his subject -the food speculator. Sir Joseph Flavelle, the Brief friend and backer of the Borden Government, the man who gave a million- dollars to the Tory campaign fund in 1911, with the full assurance of getting it back a hundredfold, out oft the bacon and egg eaters of 'Can- ada -Sir Joseph Flavelle is • the arch - type of the food speculator.

" We have used "Fruit-a-tives" in our house for over three years and hays always found them a good medicine. Our little girl, Hattie, was troubled with Kidney Disease. The Doctor said she was threatened with Dropsy. Her limbs and bony were all swollen and we began to think she could not live. Filially, we decided to try "Fruit-a-tives ". She began to show improvement after we had given her afew tablets. Ina short time, the swelling had all goaiedown and her flesh :began to look mare natural.

At all dealers or sent postpaid on receiptof price by Fruit a- tives Limited, Ottawa. stand up all the qualities that make the food speculator and biggest hog on earth. Sir Joseph not only` col- lects leets two profits on the on he • sells to the British. Army and -what is equivalent to four profits on the bacon he sells to us poor people at- home, thome, but he hides his Car►adaian pro- fits away as "rest funds" and kin Eng- lish profits as "commissions" .,and dodges the war tax in ,both •countriese Sir Joseph is a food speculator. He., is not only a food speculator in Can- ada, but a food speculator, in the. Un- ited States and a food speculator in England. And he does ,it all under the shelter of the Borden Government, Finance Minister White being his man Friday, and letting him dodge what taxes he pleases. To curry favor with the .great man,Finance Minister White only the other day did all he could to take the tax off the war profiteer and put in on the little fellow who is earn- ing three thousand dollars a year and having a hard time to keep his head above water. Sir Joseph is not only a food speculator iii two continents, butrumor has it that he is a munition speculator beth in 'Canada and the United States, where. hegets his bit in several. companies Which have him as a sleeping partner. Sir Joseph, his bank and his trust company are also interested in the C.N.R. deal, the object of which is to make Canada pay two hundred million dollars more for a railway which it owns already. This is one of the reasoais why the Borden Government goes on stacking the cards in order to win.the election. It has got to get back to see the thing through. a o • Food Controller Hanna promises to issue statements from time to time, giving further reasons why he doesn't dare to disturb current prices. Evi- dently Food Controller Hanna believes in the east wind as a nourishing diet. At any rate that is all Canada has got from him so far or has any chance of getting from him in the future. Fuel control is another joke. A hard winter is approaching. The rich peo- ple bought their coal at bottom prices in April. The coal companies, fos- tering an artificial scarcity, tell the poor people that they can't deliver coal now and that when they do it will be at top prices. There is more coal available in this North American con- tinent now than there ever was but that doesn't make any difference to the coal profiteers. Everybody's do- ing it, and they are going to have their share of the swag. Fuel Controller McGrath, though animated by the highest motives, has done nothing at all to alleviate the situation. One wonders if Canada' wouldn't get more action from a Fuel Controller whose relations are not in the coal business. H.F.G. MARVELS OF WAR SURGERY It is probably no exaggeration to say that in three years of war surgery has made more rapid advances than might be expected in fifty years of peace. The reason is that surgeons get more practice; more surgeons practice, and with increasing exper- ience comes increasing daring, so that experiments which they might well hesitate to attempt in time of peace are tried, and if one- man is success- ful, there are hundreds of others with equal skill to follow his lead. It is well known that after the Crimean War a considerabe advance in surgical skill was registered in England, but unfortunately it appeared that sur- geons used to the operations of the battlefield 'had little compunction sawing off a civilian's leg er arm ever afterward. The contrary -is the case among the British surgeons in the present instance, and what is true of probably British ,surgeons is true. of the medical riled in all the belliger- ent nations. They are more reluctant to amputate now than in times of peace, and they have found substitutes for amputation that were undreamed of three years ago. Some marvelous operations in nerve and bone surgery have been accom- plished, the former being a compara- tively new branch of the art.. There are many thousands of cases in which a bullet -wound heals rapidly and only a scar remains after a few weeks with the slight difference that r ' the bullet has severed a nerve and an arm or a leg, for instance, is power- less. Nowadays surgeons will careful- ly tie up the ends of the cut nerve, and the limb will function as well as ever. I1 it should happen, as is often the case, that part of the nerve has been carried awav they will subtsitute an- other piece of nerve. In one case a piece of shell had carried away the fleshy part of a soldier's arm, and with it four inches of the nerve that controlled the movements of the hand. The surgeon who operated in London, telephoned to several hospi- tals, and at last found one where a leg was to be amputated . -No sooner was it nut off than sev- eral inches of practical living nerve is brought about usually by what is a saline bath and then rushed by taxi -cab to the other hospital. It was then spliced to the ends of the nerve in the wounded man's arm, and the circuit thus re-established. Probably hundreds of similar operations have been performed since the beginning of the war, the patients being thus rescued from cripples' fate. As far as bones are concerned, they are mended patched, spliced and otherwise treat- ed as boldly as though they were wood and the surgeons cabinet mak- ers. A man who had a part of his jawbone carried away was supplied with the missing bone from'his own shin, where the fragment will never be missed. Another patient has three inches of his left fibula neatly mor- tised in his right humerus, and both leg and arni will be practically as sound as ever. Hundreds of soldiers have 'emir supplied with new roofs to their mouths, some of metal, some of bone, either subtracted from some other parts of their body or rived from somebody else's. anatomy. One case that, has attracted a good deal of attention was - of a soldier whose leg had been broken, reset hur- riedly, with. the result that the ends overlapped and one leg Was six inches shorter than the other. At London the bone was broken, and a steel plate set in with screws. This operation made the legs of equal length, and the soldier now :walks with not even a limp to indicate .anything abnormal. Another remarkable operation was performed on a guardsman at the Qnenn Alexandra Hoa ital at Mill- bank. A pieta of shrapnel as large as a halfpenny; and much thicker, had penetrated his breast, and actually lay touching his heart, whose action it interfered; with. His chc,st cavity was opened, and the surgeonthrust in his hand ,and reproved the bit of metal. The fear in this operation was that the lungs would eoll#pse under anaes- thesa, and 'therefore ether was pump- ed into them to keep them distended. Sepsis that creeping death of the tissues, which is the dread of the sur- geon, is very often encountered and was removed from the calf, placed in called "gas gangrene," which in its turn is produced by a sort of bacillus that cannot live in air. but exists in cultivated soil . A bullet that richo- chets frona the ground or that passes through a bit 'of earth -stained cloth- ing before entering the body may very well carry this infection into the wound. Once there it sets about pro- ducing tiny gas bubbles in the tissue, and this is called ='gas gangrene." These bacilli are met by,the introduc- tion of oxygen. For instance, a hole through the shoulder will be sterilized by introducing a -wick, which conveys peroxide from a tank hanging over the bed, to the infected tissue. Some- times the wound is sprayed with ozone, and in other cases treated with oxygen gas from a cylinder. One of the reasons why some of the o`p- •erations described, all of them severe, can be so confidently attempted is that there has been a great improve- ment in anaesthesia, which is due to the increasing use of oxygen with the anaesthetic. � Fresh and Refreslilng 76 is composed ofclean, whole young leaves.
