BLLIOTI, PUSLINUER AND PRUPILTOR TO ADVERTISERS Notice of changes mint be left at this , office not later than saturday noon. The copy for changes must be left not later than Monday evening. Casual advertisements accepted up to noon Wednesday of each week THURSDAY, May 20 , 1915 EDITORIAL NOTES Hon. Robert Rogers is the wise boy. He left the Manitoba ship of State be- fore the storm broke with all its fury. The fate of the Roblin Government should be a warning to Hon. R. L. Borden and his followers at Ottawa. The Roblin Government has "taken to cover." When the Royal Commis- sion appointed to investigate the trans- actions in connection with the building of the Provincial Parliament buildings gets under way the reason will no doubt become apparent. If it be true that the entrance of the United States into the war would seriously impair our chance of securing that essential supply of war material now going from the factories of the United States to the allies, is it British war service to call upon the United States to jump into the fight? Is it sensible to ridicule in cartoon, editorial article and public address an attitude adopted by President Wilson, when it is the very attitude British statesmen are praying that he will keep? Is it fair? Is it just? Is it patriotic? The cold fact remains that Germany alone of all the belligerents has been acting to tempt the United States to enter the war. A number of recent incidents establish this fact.—Montreal Star. Among the incongruities of the pres- ent war the one reported from British Headquarters in France is not the most singular. The men in the British trenches have taken in gardening dur- ing their periods of relief' from the front and small plots of primroses and daffodils are growing, in some instances not more than 200 yards fron the firing line of the enemy. tven more extra- ordinary, however, is the case of a German Landsturner who has set up a little shop in his dugout, where he follows bis peaceful occupation of watchmaker, repairing the timepieces of his comrades and even keeping a little stock of watches on sale "cheap and guaranteed for 20 years." - Phila- delphia Record. Considering its small numbers, the Canadian overseas contingent, which has been winning laurels in the fighting line is perhaps the most cosmopolitan force of that kind ever gathered to- gether. Its members hail from all quarters of the globe—Asia, Australia, Europe, Africa, and, of course, Ameri- ca. Its dead and wounded already count not only Canadians, Americans, English, Irish, and Scotch. but Rus- sians, Danes, Swedes, Armenians. Bel- gians. Alsatians, Greeks, Italians, Hol- landers and Montenegrins. Perhaps most interesting in one sense are such names in the casualty lists as Klotz, Scharschmidt, Hertzberg, and many others of Teutonic origin fighting against the land of their fathers, for many of these men are sons of Prussian born. And they are fighting not from compulsion -for Canada's troops are wholly volunteer—but for principle. W. CLEGG, Proprietor.

This total is made up as follows: • Wounded, 3,2 rli. Killed. 678. Missing, 867. The Canadians "saved the situation" on those fearful four days' fighting, but it took a terrible toll. The week- end casualty list contained 534 more named, 131 killed, 251 wounded and 252 A choice between starvation or mer- ciless torture is the dismal prospect before all victims of indigeston, for although they are in need of food to nourish the body, they are afraid to eat because of the long periods of pain and discomfort that follow even the lightest of meals. The urgent need of all who suffer from indigestion is to gain strength so that the stomach can extract nourish- ment from the food taken. Pain after eating is the way the stomach signifies its protest that it, is too weak to do nature's work. To take purgatives is only to aggravate the trouble. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills give new strenith to weak stomach because they*rich and purify the blood supply thu- enabl- ing the stomach to digest food •.. turally. Almost from the first the petite re- vives: then food can be t en without pain and the burden of i igestion dis- appears. The followin ; ase proves the truth of these *item ts, Mr. W. H. Silver, a well now farmer living in the vicinity o . ford. N. S., says: "For upward- seven years I was tortured with digestion; sometimes I was so bad that I would not taste a bit of hearty food. but would have to con- tent myself with a bit of stale bread. At times I suffered excruciating pains in my stomach, and could hardly sleep at night. I tried various prescriptions but got no benefit from them and na- turally I was in a very reduced state of health. I had come to believe that I was doomed for the balance of my life to this most constant torture, when I read of a case similar to my own cured through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. This gave me new courage and I decided to try them. To make a long story short, the use of the Pills for a couple of months completely cured me. This is some 2 years ago,and I have had no return of the trouble, and am able to eat as hearty a meal as anyone." You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills through your medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. missing. Half the missing, o' 127, were from the 2nd Battalion, raised in Eastern Ontario. Thirty-three names of missing from the third Battalion, which contain Toronto units, are also reported. The gallant 7th, which lost' its Commander, Col. McHarg, has re- ported .:5 missing. This total of 4.751 are the casualties firm :Ari: 22nd, the dee the Lig battle opened. However it. also contains the lists of the Princess Patrieias in the recent heavy fighting at Ypr•-s, and a..3o names cf a number of (-'W-.atlaa:n artillery men who have hoax ct ga4•,=.l iso the terrift:; artillery du -I's of he ; :,st two weeks. LIBERAL CLUB FEDERATION OF ` ONTARIO. A record of steady growth in numbers, and ever-increasing importance in the scope of its work, marks the develop- ment of the Liberal Club Federation of Ontario wliich is celebrating its second birthday on Friday, May 21st, with its annual business meeting in the after- noon and in the evening its annual din- ner with Sir Wilfrid Laurier, Mr. N. W. Rowell, Sir Lomer Gouin and Hon. George P. Graham amongits guests. The Federation's officers and most of its members are young men and the movement, quite separate from ary of the official organizations of the Liberal party, represents the young man's place and influence in the Liberal party and in Ontario politics. Just two years ago the Federation was formed by a union of the twenty- two Liberal Clubs then existing in the Province. To -day, the Club member- ship has risen to sixty-three with an in- dividual membership running into the thousands. The Annual Business Meeting on the 21st under the Presidency of Dr. Howard Spohn, Penetanguishene will see a num- ber of live subjects discussed, among them the following—"The Federation and the War", "The Individual Club Problem", "The Federation and the Clubs" and "The Federation's Ideals." These discussions will be led by young men from various parts of the Province. Particular interest is sure to attach to the subject of "The Federation and the War." Ever since the beginning of hostilities, the Federation and its clubs have been holding patriotic meetings, distributing literature on the war and doing their share in the propaganda for recruits and for a realization of the seriousness and the high honor of the task before Canada and the Allies. Further schemes of service along these lines are to be discussed. The following list of Clubs in the Federation will give an idea of the wide- spread extent of the movement:— Ameliasburg, Aurora, I3arrie, Belle- .ville, Berlin, Blackwater, Bond Head, Brantford, Brampton, Brinston, Bur- lington, Caledonia, Cardinal, Cayuga, Clifford, Clinton.
