BRITAIN HAS NOW NAMED A SULTAN OF EGYPT
London, Dec. 18.—It is officially announced that Prince Hussein Kemal has been
appointed to succeed the Khedive of Egypt. Prince Hussein Kemal will take the
title of Sultan of Egypt.    Egypt will now be under the protectorate of the British.

Petrograd, Dec. 18.—An official
statement says that on the left, hank
of the Vistula there has almost been
a complete lull nn nearly all the
fronts. Repeated attacks have been
made by the enemy In the course ot
the past few days. All of these attacks have been repulsed.
These moves were made In connection with the advance on tbe part
of our troops towards the Bzura
River.
In view of the fact that the Austrians are continually receiving reinforcements in the Carpathians we
have thought tit to rearrange the
positions of some of our armies. We
checked an offensive movement of
the enemy yesterday in Western
Galicia on the front between Sanc.k
and Lisko. We succeeded in our offensive move and have captured
three thousand prisoners together
with several  guns and  mitrailleuses.

ITALY MAY SOON
ENTER THE CONFLICT
To   Master    Adriatic    and     Possess
Trieste anil  Trent Her
Aim.
With a thoroughly homogenous
oabinet, Premier Salandra is working feverishly for Italy's ultimate
participation in the great conflict,
says a despatch from Domodossola,
on the Italian frontier.
"Armed neutrality, with 1,000,-
000 men mobilized, to the end that
mobilization be increased. In general,
however, it is not believed this will
be done until the actual moment
when it Is up to Italy to take possession of the provinces she desires
—the provinces that have been openly offered her by Russia and Britain
—and hold them If necessary by
force.
Italy, at the present, has 500,000
men under arms. These form the
nucleus of all the units that would be
iengaged in a war calling for her full
[mobilization. They have already completed every detail of the organization, so that the final call to arms
merely means the filling out   iiunier-
other infantry battalions are now being organized for service when required later.
?«.\ of the thirteen regiments of
mounted infantry have already been
allotted to districts. The remainder
are likely to be grouped as follows:
Seventh and Eighth regiments to
Toronto, Ninth and Tenth to Manitoba and Saskatchewan, Eleventh to
British Columbia, and 12th and 13th
to Alberta.
The seven extra division infantry
battalions have been in progress of
mobilization for some time at Toronto, Montreal, Quebec, Halifax
Winnipeg, Victoria and Calgary. The
Italy does not lose any rights or advantages accruing to her by reason loally o1' tnese units   already   on   a [nineteen further battalions to be or-
basls  for  war.   For that reason  fur- ganlzed  without delay  will  be  molil
ther    mobilization    at    the    present nzed as follows:
time would only menn additional ex-      Seven  battalions in Ontario:   two
This   is   Italy's
of  her  neutrality
present motto.
Reduced to their maximum terms,
"Italy's advantages and rights accruing to her by reason of her neutrality," mean the redemption of
the two Italian provinces of Trieste
and Trent—Italy's Alsace and Lorraine—and the permanent occupation of Vallona on the Adriatic
These rights mean also the passlna
into Italy's possession or at least
enough of the northern and eastern
coast of the Adriatic to ensure that
she will be mistress of that sea.
In maintaining and holding these
"rights and advantages" Italy will
have the solid support of the Triple
Entente. That has been officially assured. It. was assured even before
Britain consented to supply ^ Italy
with coal and other necessities while
the war is in progress.
The Triple Entente will not allow
any portion of the Adriatic coast to
remain In the hands of Austria which
might eventually afford Germany a
port on the Adriatic. The only othei
countries to whom this can go are
Servia and Italy, and Italy does not
propose that Servia get all.
Premier Had  Difficulties.
Although tli in whs the policy of
Premier Salandra from the beginning of tiie war, a lack of harmony
in his cabinet made it impossible for
hiin to work effectively to that end.
First of all, the lnte Marchese de
San Giuliano, minister of foreign affairs, was one of the greatest supporters of Italy's alliance with Germany and Austria, lie sincerely and
conscientiously believed that Italy
could noi turn against them. Under
the strain of the fight which he man.
aged to keep up for two months he
died. Premier Salandra took over
his portfolio  for the time.
Another obstacle In Premier i?al-
andra's first cabinet was Gen. Gran-
di, minister of war. The chief of
staff of the army, declaring Italy utterly unprepared for war, demanded
immense sums for Immediate preparation, These Premier Salandra
succeeded In getting, but these sums
Minister of War Grandi declined to
spend. Finally he resigned, Gen. Zu-
pelli, fully in sympathy with the
premier's views, was then substl
tuted.
But still another obstacle developed. The $200,000,000 Slgnor Ru-
blnl, minister of finance, wns willing
to give, bin only on condition tlint It
was approved in the usual bureau-
oratli way by n bill through Parliament, Salandra Insisted thai il	
oeptlonnl ei Ists   warranted   the   i \
oeptlonal  ,- lures he Insi   i tl
pense   without  any  advantage.
Quebec;   one,    Maritime    Provinces;
Italy considers herself ready  from'four,   Manitoba   and    Saskatchewan;
now on, and she will be fully prepared, fully organized, and ready to act
when the psychological moment
arrives.

The Rexall Stores of Canada
CONTRIBUTE TO
The Canadian Patriotic Fund
THE Rexall Stores of Canada, 400 of the leading Drug Stores
iu Canada have unanimously agreed to contribute to the
Canadian Patriotic Fund, FIVE PER CENT, of their total purchases of all Rexall Toilet Goods, Rexall Remedies and oilier merchandise manufactured or sold by he United Drug Company, Limited,
Toronto,  from October   15th   o December lilst, 1014.
This action of the Rexall Drug Stores of Canada has been
undertaken co-operatively, because as a co-operative organization, they realize nw much more can be done unitedly than individually, and it has been taken for two
reasons to fulfill a humane duty in raising a fund for the
relief work of the Canadian Patriotic Organization, and a
patriotic duty in an endeavor to keep n large staff of
Canadian employees busy.
The 410 Rexall Stores of Canada make an appeal to your
sympathy ninl support In their doubly worthy cause for
increasing the funds of th Canadian Patriotic Organization ..nd for the support o Canadian workmen because: —
The fund that would be raised nn the basis of last year's
business can be tremendously increased if every man and
woman in Canada will help a little by the simple process
of purchasing Rexall Goods at the Rexall Stores.
No need to give space in this announcement to emphasize
the high quality of Rexall Toilel and Medicinal goods.
Sufficient to say that 7,00 of the leading Drug Stores in
Canada, (Ireat Britain, ind the United States place their
personal and collective reputations behind them: that the
public in these countries endorse them to the extent of
several million dollars worth of purchases a year.
Beller goods are not made, and you lake no risk in buying, for every Rexall Stnrr will return you your money if
any Rexall Product is not entirely satisfactory and do it,
too, without the sllghtesl objection.
There's o full list of Rexall products waiting for you at
the Rexall Slore In  your town.
Ask for Ii Kindly pa oa he word along to your friends.
It is the collective purchases of all thai wlll make tins
Rexall store Fund for ihe Canadian Patriotic Organization work a bin one.
Tli<- Fund "ill bo collecie from each Rexall Store in Canada by the United Drug Company, Limited, Toronto, und
will be paid bj them ,ln t to the officers of the Canadian Patriotic ni-.-.iii.-,,lion, iin-1 the amount so collected
will  he published  In  this paper  when  paid over.
REXALL GOODS ARE MADE IN  CANADA  and    you
them  in  your town  only  from
to do so. In addition to seriously affecting the bank's policy of collecting, which was being pursued, the
war indefinitely postponed negotiations towards securing additional
capital for the bank, and it has since
been impossible to resume these negotiations.
■'When it became evident that
funds would be required to meet depositors' demands, every possible effort was put forth to secure assistance and it was only after exhausting all available sources that the directors reluctantly decided to suspend business.

Depositors to lie Paid.
"The directors are confident that
the depositors will be paid ln full as
the assets are ample but in view of
existing conditions some time will be
required for full realization. The assets at the close of business yesterday amounted to approximately $1,-
098,000.00, of which about $70,000.-
00 is made up of cash, cheques, bank
balances and deposit with the Government at Ottawa as security for
note circulation. The liabilities are
composed of deposits totalling ?;I79,-
000.00 and notes in circulation
$325,000.00. Attention is here directed to the fact that on the 30th
of November, 1913, a little more
than a year ago, the bank's total deposits amounted to $1,507,000.00
and notes In circulation $373,000.00.
These figures are indisputable evidence of the large reduction which
has taken place in Ihe Bank's liabilities during the past year."
