If you do not treat it in time it will, in all posaibility, develop into bronchitia, pneumonia, astluna, or some other scrims throat or lung trouble. On the first sign of a cold or cough it is advisable to cure it at once, and not let it run on for an indefinite period. For this purpose there is nothing to equal Dr. Wood's 'Norway Pine -Syrup, a remedy that has been universally used by thousands for over twenty-five years. • You do not experiment when you buy Mrs. W. 'G. Paquet, Smith's Falls, Ont., writes: -"I was troubled with 1a - grippe. I caught cold and neglected it, and was sick for several months. I took three bottles of Dr, Wood's Norway Pine Syrup, and before I finisled the last one I was entirely cured. 1 would not have any other cough medicine in the house. it. It also cured my baby, whp was very sick with kasisehitis. She had the doc- tor three timei, and he recommended °Dr. Wood's., I highly recommend it to those who need a snuck eire."

Some years, ago he appears to hake come to the 4onclusion that the edi- torial page in that a newspaper ought to have no more opinion a than a stock market ticker.

Not infrequently la bash of 70 or 80 leave a small village to work in Ger- man?, and though the majority, re- turn as soon as possible, their !story does not deter others from chancing their luck.' HOW THEY GOT HERR BOLO PH American SAm sympathizers with the Sinn Feiners have been. deprived, of a weapon they intended to weild with great vigor by the official announce- ment that O'Leary, Ryan and other Irish .Americans under indictment for indictment for conspiracy with Ger- many were rim down as a result of American investigations and that no foreign Government was concerned in. preparing the evidence against them. It has been an old pretence among a certain -class of Americans who hate Englanonore than they love the Ifuited States that in entering the war the United States has been used by Great Britain, that President Wilson was, to use the words fre- quently printed in the Hearst papers, "playing England's game." These men, if they are caught,v011 not,be ac- cused of conspiring -against Great Britain; they will be accused of trea- son to the United Ste*, and if con- victed are likely to be shot or hanged. We regret to report that at the pres- ent time'they are in hiding, probably in Mexico. _ While the United State$ is entitled to the credit for having unearthed the conspiracy, it seems reasonable to suppose, since the conspirators were indicted in ethe State bf New York, that the , State deserves particular credit. It is. jast now being realized in New York State that there are some remarkably stern laws in force there, which were quietly ipassed by the Al- bany Legislature as war measures, and which nobody paid much attention to at the time of their enactment. One of them is a "peace 'and safety' law," which puts into the hands, of the Governor of the State and the Attor- ney General almost unliniited power. The Legislature voted a considerable sum which was to be, spent by them Jointly in the investigation of any crimes committed within. the State which had for 'their object the ham- 'pering of the war energies of the coun- try or any, of its Allies. There was to be no auditing of the account. It was to be spent in secret. Agents for pro- tecting the State were appointed in secret. Nobody would know anything. about them but the Governor and the Attorney General s and these agents were .given such powers as are only deposited in atate commissions as a rule. They could examine ,witneeses under oath. They' could sendto ejenl witnesses who refused to answer questions. In tithe of peace the pass- ing of such a law, the giving of such authority to unknown agen'ts, would be unheard of. It worked to good advantabe in the case of Bolo Pasha, who -svas shot a few weeks ago as a traitor. The most important evidence against him was secured in New York by agents of Govenor Whit - Man and Attorney -General Lewis Last fall the Govenor was appealed to by the French Consul -General in New York, on behalf . of Embassador Jus- serand, who said that the French Government had suspicions about Bolo, but had no evidence upon which to act. The Government, it appeared, was prodding the Am- bassador over the cable every day, but the '*Inerican Federal Laws ate - peered not to cover the case. The New Yerk State law, however, seems t& have been designed for just - such an emergepcy, since' the trans- action which it' was desired to investi- Ote bad occurred in the state. So the dogs of war were loosed and it was not long before the necessary evid- ence was accumulated. On a previous visit to the United Stat ea Belo had borne unimpeachable letters of introduction. He had ap- peared as a distinguished Fienchinan with equally unimpeachable American affiliations. For instance, Morgan was his banker and the Royal' Bank of ' Canada did business with him. The right to walk into 'a bank, demand an inspection of all accounts and corres- pondence was one of the teeth in, the Act of the New York Legislature. Thus the American investigators were able to track Bolo. Be had come to the United States for the purpose of getting $2,000,000 from Bernstdrff to buy the Paris Journal, and he got the money. It was necessary, of course, that there should be the utmost pains to conceal the origin of the cash, and therefore some complicated banking tricks were adopted. Nevertheless • because of. the loyalty of New York State and the energy of its agents, a correct account was presented; ande evidence sent to M. Jusserand. e was dumfounded at the implications, • but told the American investigators 'that nothing. was to be, concealed. He cabled to France and the next day Bolo was arrested. • Reviewing the evidence as mention- ed in the New York Times, it is not plain whether Bolo wanted Germany to win the war or whether he wanted to make a fortune. To be charit- able we ought to admit the possibility • that he had both ends in view. From Senator Humbert he had received an option on the Journal He ca -me to the United States and sought an in- terview with a known German and a pre -German. To hien he confided his enterprise and said that he wanted .the loan of $2,000,000, without interest, for the period of the war. He was told that this was not a banking pro- position, and that there was only one man in, the United States who would consider it. That man was Bern- storfr. Bolo professed indifference as to who might produce the money, and eventually he got it from Bernstorff His execution followed. • RCM............ ''''' ' .
