Fill the County Court Vacancy X A. *% J; R. Brown, the ex-member for Green wood in the Provincial house, has been appointed to the county court judgeship, to fill the vacancy created by the appointment of Judge Clements to the supreme court of B. C. It is generally conceded that no better selection could have been made, and it is a matter of congratulation that the position has been allotted to one who possesses in bo marked a degree the qualifications necessary in the fulfillment of the duties the office entails. Judge Brown, as he will hereafter be known, and his estimable lady, are receiving the heartiest congratulations from their numerous friends'. While many regret his removal from the sphere of active political life, all unite .with the Times in wishing him a long and successful career in the high position he is so eminently qualified to adorn. John Robert Brown, the newly appointed judge, waa born near Sarnia, Lambton county, of Irish and Scotch parentage, February 19, 1863. He was educated in: the common and hicjh schools of Sarnia, and studied law in the office of James F. Lister, who for many years represented WestLambton in the Dominion parliament, and who subsequently became judge of the court of appeals, Toronto. He completed his law studies in the office of Frank Denton, K. C, Toronto, and was colled to the Ontario bar in the spring of 1897. After practicing his profession for a year in Sarnia, he came to B. C,where he was called to the bar of British Columbia in April. 1899, and has since then practiced his profession in Greenwood. Since coming to Greenwood he has taken an active part in politics and carried the Greenwood riding for the Liberals in the election of 1903. During the three sessions of the present house he took a most active part in all its proceedings, and his elevation to the bench will be a distinct loss to the fighting force of the Liberal party in B.C. ' ;. 7- - : _',' A PROSPEROUS GREENWOODITE The Times notes with pleasure the announcement by the Calgary papers of the promotion of a. strong investment company in Calgary the man a sting director of which is J. M. Humphrey, a former well known resident of Greenwood. J. M. was for a long time a valued member of P. Burns & Co.'s office staff. Since his transfer to the Calgary offices of the company, some three years ago, he has given considerable attention to real estate matters, in which he has been so uniformly successful th���t he has become one of the principals in one of Calgary's biggest real estate firms. That J. M. has retained his habit of making and keeping friends ia demonstrated by the following from a Calgary exchange: "P. Burns is losing all his good men. John Humphrey of the Pioneer market, resigned the first of the year to embark in the real estate business. John's fellow employes remembered him most handsomely in the shape of a fur coat and hat, and the young man is wearing a happy smile. "I hear there is a young lady in the case..

Stock Taking Safe fc*SOMKU��.J-'-,*-1-'"l**--,u^^ SEE HAND BILLS FOR PARTICULARS was There never was much doubt regard irijr'the richness of Greenwood's high j^rade belt and every chapter of the history of the Providence mine is an eloquent tribute to its permanency From the days when William Fowler with little capital but Scottish grit and keeu knowledge of a good thing in mineral when he saw it, began to develop this property uutil last evening when the ProvidenceMiuingcompanv, by the unanimous consent of its shareholders increased its capitalization to $2,000,000. Every step in the develop ment of this now famous mine completely refutes the statement that Greenwood is only a low grade camp. Nature in its wisdom has placed within these belts of low grade copper are which have astonished the copper world a zone of high grade silver-gold ore that lifts Greenwood into a high grade camp as well. And it is no geological freak containing nothing but pockets of rich ore that are often an expensive temptation to the investor. Systematic development has demonstrated that here we have well defined veins whose permancy can be no longer doubted. It is now over four years since the Providence Mining Company was organised with a modest capital of 5200,000. But the mine had a history previous to thatdate. The story of how William Fowler took charge of the,Providence in the days when the hurricane deck of a cayuse was the only means of transportation, packed ore to Marcus, 65 miles, ^distant, and thence-by rail. to-Tacoma, how even Providence ore could not stand . such a transportation handicap, how he abandoned the mine and afterwards returned after the railway was built, and finally cleaned up $50,000 by a sale to local people, has often been told in these columns. The local purchasers were afterwards joined' by Mark F. Madden, representing himself and other Chicago capitalis :s, who, like most Chicagoans, knew a good thing when they saw it. Since the organization of the company the Providence has been a regular dividend payer; in fact, was prac tically the first dividend payer in the camp Over 2400,000 has been taken fiom the mine, and last year the value of tne ore extracted was 5*131,000, notwithstanding the fact that for eight months of'the year, no ore waa shipped further than that necessary to pay for development work The shaft was sunk in oro from the 400 to the 600 foot level; drift, and crosscuts were run and a fully equipped plant waa installed. The large amount of development has demonstrated that the veins retain their values and that they run to great depths. All this work has been done from the proceeds of the sale of ore extracted from the mine, and not from the sale of stock. There is no stock for sale by the company. The Chicago end have from time tb time purchased the interests of several of the local people and the majority of the stock Ib held today by. a few Chicago investors. Were the shipments of the Providence limited to the present basis,, the net annual profit would easily be $100,000 annually. That amount is 5 per cent on a capitalization of $2,000,000, and the Chicago investor likes to capitalize the earning power of his money at a proper proportion. An extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders of the company was held in Greenwood last evening; a resolution was passed authorizing the increase of the capital stock to this amount, and the Providence mine takes its place among1 the "Big uns." Two million dollars is a big sum of mney, b.*t,ori the other hand, nothing is capitalized' in Cobalt for less than two million, and the stock ��� is often placed on the market at three times its par value. There are rich mines in Cobalt, but th.re are few more promising than the Providence. In comparison to some Cobalt flotations of today, the new capitalization of the Providence mine is very modest indeed. In addition, it has behind it the inct that after four years of development, it is a permanent shipping mine and a regular dividend payer, which, after all, are the best tests of the value of a mine. - Thrown at the Old Parties on Wednesday Evening in the Auditorium by the Socialists Th<�� first meeting, of the election , brio g, a bout whentheysecure the reina campaign was held Wednesday evening in the Auditorium building in the interests of the Sodialist candidate. Frank Steele occupied the chair, and with him on the platform were Edgar Dynes, Socialist candidate; E. G. Warren, representing the Conservatives, and G. R Naden, the Liberal standard bearer, as well as John Mclntiis, who is the Socialist candidate for the Grand Forks riding, and 'Benjamin Wilson, the wind jammer from California, who is here to instruct the poor benighted Canadian how to vote. The socialist candidate opened the ball by a somewhat lengthy address, in which the "old parties" came in for the regulardose generally dealt out on such occasions, accompanied by the usual profusion of prophecies as to the glorious results that Socialists will of povyer. His services to the public in exposing the methods of the P. Burns Co. were dwelt upon at great length, and the policy outlined which he would endeavor to follow if elected tothe house. G. R. Naden and E. G. Warren, who will each, at a meeting of their own, outline their respective policies, made short addresses, after which Mr.Wilson took the floor, and for the remainder of the evening entertained the audience in his own unique way. In the near future meetings will be held by both Liberal and Conservative parties in which Socialist speakers will be invited lo attend, so that the public will have ample opportunity to hear the questions at issue thoroughly discussed, something which was entirely overlooked at the meeting on Wednesday night. !sgTO3**:w.!��\y..'��.'^.ww.w^^ SHK.-5KWJ ra?ra?6CTC?.)y.*o��u*gggretKa,'c.:)��>y..'CT.v^^ Womens' Goods.

R. -Naden deserves well from the people of Greenwood. To him is largely due the credit for rescuing the city from financial bankruptcy, iu which position it was left by some of the men who now find more congeniality in the Conservative party, and are shouting for Warren Greenwood today is one of UK- best governed cities in the province, and the soundest financially. A man who made a good mayor will make a good representative. All it requires is brains, .honest\ and determination. Geo. R. Naden is rich in all these. He is the ideal candidate whom one can work for and shout for, full of confidence that he will always make good. W. W. B. McINNES. ,. Conservatives dp not like W. W. B. Mclnn.es' re-entry into pro- yincial. politics, and consequently he is now enjoying the torrents of abuse which are being daily poured upon him by the frantic . apologists of the McBride government, '������'.'. Mr. Mclnnes went to the Yukon and made good. The Yukon, : like South Africa, has been aptly dubbed the graveyard of reputations, but Mr. Mclnnes came out without the slightest blemish on 7~his record. He demonstrated what an exceedingly able and 0 tactful man can do when put to th.* test. Mr. Mclnnis is easily the best platform speaker iri Can- : ada; in addition he is blessed with a personality which wins .votes. W. W. B. Mclnnes is a splendid .fighting lieutenant for J. A. Macdonald. Together they make the "strongest fighting team which has ever appeared in provincial , politics. SITUATION IN GREENWOOD in the general provincial elections of 1903, with the e_*Cu>;.U7- that in the coming elections the Conservatives have a much weaker candidate than they then had. Ou February 2 Mr." Naden will poll a few more votes than did Mr. Brown in 1903, and E. G. Warren will poll a few less votes than'did-Dr. Spankie. There has been no serious turn over of public opinion aud new comers and registered voters are about equal in number to those who have left the district. But the suggestion that the Conservative is the stronger candidate is made for a purpose. The majority of those who are ' responsible for Mr, Warren's nomination c"fii see nothing, wrong in the unhory alliance between McBride and the Socialists for the last three years. They much rather see the red flag of anarchy flying over the capitol buildings at Victoria than have a sane and'sound Liberal government installed in power. They are determined to perpetuate the alliance between Conservatives and Socialists. Thev do not expect to win themselves but they hope by circulating bold aud impossible statements to stampede sufficient votes from Geo. R. Naden to make possible the election of a Socialist iu the Greenwood riding. The trick is too transparent, however, to deceive the intelligent elector. The issue in this campaign is the same as in 1903. Those who want the rich and prosperous riding of Greenwood to be forever cursed by the election of a revolutionary Socialist will cast their votes for E. G. Warren, those who want to prevent, such a disaster will vote for Geo. R. Naden, EVASIVE TACTICS. 7 The statement that E. G. Warren will poll more votes than Geo. R. Naden inithe Greenwood elect- eral district is absurd. The position in reference to the Liberal and Conservative parties in this riding is about the same as it was Viewed from the poiut of numbers in attendance, the meeting of Weduesday night in the interests of the Socialist candidate was a success. Viewed from any other standpoint it was an absolute failure. It is safe to assume that the majority of those present at the meeting went there in hopes of hearing an intelligent criticism of the political parties that Socialism seeks to demolish, and a justification of the attitude of the Socialistic leader in the Provincial house on the various matters of prominence that have occupied public atteution during the life of the legislature just dissolved, especially those that related more particularly to this and adjoining ridings. It is plainly apparent tbat the Socialist candidate for Greenwood is either painfully ignorant of the McBride-Ha wtboruthwaite record, or else, realizing his utter inability to either defend or justify them, he seeks to evade the issue by swamping his audience Shape Expression HE beauty of a violin lies iu its lines.

These may be weighty matters, but they have nothing to do with the question at issue, which is simply this: Whether the destinies of this province are to be controlled by a combination of ranting incompetents whose sole object appears to be that of squandering the public domain, or that there be placed in control of affairs men of proved integrity and busines* ability, who will give to B.

A.'i.P.A.Vjincoiivri' D.P.A.NelFou Bo&OOOBOOv . .. JOOOOOOOOOOOOO Premier McBride never commanded the confidence of the people of British Columbia. He is an accident resulting from the peculiar topsy turvey condition of provincial politics in previous years. When the Prior government was defeated, largely through, the effective work of John Oliver and Smith Curtis, and.,other Liberal members of the legislature, Mr. McBride, who happened to be nominally leader of the opposition at that, time, was called upon to form a government. He immediately deserted fhe men who were responsible for his reaching a high position, and organized what he was pleased to call the first Conservative government in British Columbia. Of -mediocre ability, without any genius "or statesmanship., he never did possess the confidence of his bwn party, much less that of the people of the province. Notwithstanding the fact that he was in power, and that the Liberals were disorganized1 and without a leader,* he did not come back with a majority in the elections of 19037 He then,-] without any regard' for the traditions of his party, or the repu-] tation of the province, made an alliance with the Socialists, and by pandering to then, and meekly answering to the lash of the Canadian Pacific railway he has been able to keep himself in power since then. This could not be done without a sacrifice of everything that would command the respect and confidence of a discerning������'electorate. - The cold-blooded pilfering of 800.000 acres of the peoples' domain in the interests of a" railway corporation, the refusal to tax the land grants of the C. P. R., the disreputable transactions with a band of adventurers (male and female), the contemptible knocking of the Midway & Vernon deal, and the generous potlatch of a large sum of money to prosperous farmers a.;d specu- 1 a tors in hisow n consti mi ency of Dewdney, who refused io~meeT their honest obligations, make up a record characteristic of the man and the debasing alliances which he formed. In the meantime, the Liberals have become thoroughly organized with a strong leader who has seriously applied himself to matters affecting the best interests of the province. Mr. McBride has done nothing since 1903 to strengthen him with the people of the province. He was a weak man then, he is a much weaker man now. He and his government are doomed to defeat on February 2nd. A decisive defeat is not without its compensations. It will be a good thing for the province and eventually a good thing for the Conservative party.

Party ties are mighty strong after all when Chas. A. Semlin, after 35 years of strenuous political life fighting those who are now merged into the Conservative party, will leave his beautiful ranch in order to do battle in a Liberal stronghold simply because he is^r Conservative " Ore cannot but. admire his fightiug qualities even if he doe's lack discretion. Ernest Miller has received the Conservative nomination in Grand Forks. The training, which he received while a member of the board' of license commis: siouers, which was under the personal direction . and control of Geo. A. Fraser, should eminently fit him for the duties of representative of this very important district. There may, of course; be some people in Grand Forks who are -firmly convinced, that those manifestations of statesmanship during his brief career as a license'commissioner are the very strongest possible reasons why Ernest Miller should be left at home, but even these hypercritical people must admit that whatever else may.be said of the training ih the Geo. A. Fraser school, it was at least thorough. Bob Green is too busy to remain in the McBride government, but not too busy to carry the sack to the various constituencies throughout the province. Associated with him in this important work is one Mr. Gass, who acquired his early training in the Northwest territories, and who is closely identified\with J. S. Den-: nis, the C. P-.'.l.. .land commissioner, he who directs the. forces at Victoria whenever a fresh block of land or some other concession is wanted by. the C. P. R. It is scarcely complimentary to Bob Green th.at Mr. Gass should be selected to accompany him on his pilgrirnage. among the. faith? ful, but if he were considered too wicked to remain in the highly respectable McBride government dufihgan election campaign it is not surprising that the masters of the situation should exercise ordinary business precautions. PAY ORE COLUMN There are four disgruntled Liberals in Victoria. One is disgruntled because he couldn't get a county court judgship for a partner he wished to get rid of; another is disgruntled because he couldn't get a county court judg- ship for himself; a third is disgruntled because a rival firm got a Dominion government contract, and the fourth is disgruntled be- cf^��_e���well, because \he is dis- '> untied. The Colonist tells the sad, sad story on its front page. The fact that there are four dis gruntled Liberals in Victoria is bound to become historical, but we can find consolation in the fact that there were also three tailor* of Tooley street. The new owners of ��� the Fremont mineral.claim are installing a plant on the property, preparatory to sinking the,Nshaft to the ISO foot level. This crii*irhasabeen=*iirider"lease=at^difFereri!- times and a shipment of ore sent to the Trail smelter-by Messrs. Galloway and Robinson pf ave good returns. Work in the shaft, however, was abandoned upon encountering-a break at a depth of 40 feet or better. A little exploratory work by the new owners at the bottom of. the shaft showed that the break was only a small one, a single round af holes revealing a strong ledge carrying high values, chi(*fly in silver. Considering fie loca'ity of the property, with JJhe Providence on one side and the Strathmore on the other, there is every reason to believe that the-Fre- mont, with judicious development will, within a year or so, rival either of its neighbors as a produce- of high gr.tde ore. The shaft on the Tip Top is now down ��0 feet with the ledge still rein lining strong arid well defined. A whim is being installed and a gallows frame erected which will be completed in a few days.

The only business befoie the meeting was the application of C. S. Galloway for a transfer of the license now held by him for the Victoria hotel to the new owners. The transfer was allowed. The city council met Monday, evening at the usual time with a full attendance of members, His Worship Mayor Naden in the chair. The only matter to be disposed of was an application from Fritz Haussener for remuneration for damage done to a colt through injuries received from the wire fencing- surrounding the city farm. The letter .-was.; filed pending advice from the city solicitor as to the city's liability in the matter. Hugh McKee, who is running a logging camp on the main Kettle river, was in town for a few dayt, after more horses, He reports a busy winter on the river between Westbridge and the Sullivan ranch.

Wm. Powers' saw mill at Rock Creek, was burned on Friday night. The mill was a small portable one, placed there by Mr. Powers to handle the lumber required by the Kettle River Irrigated Lands Co. in the conatruc- tion of their flume across Rock creek. The loss was not heavy, as much of the machinery is but slightly damaged and very little of the lumber or logs being destroyed. Hew the fire originated is not known. It is likely the mill will be rebuilt at once as there will probably be a heavy demand for lumber in that locality during the coming spring. Wednesday afternoon Greenwood suffered from an epidemic of runaway teams. The Hunter- Kendrick team started the business by taking French leave, and in passing down Copper street adjacent to the Greenwood Liquor Co. store, started their delivery into action, as well as the handsome team owned by the Dominion Copper Co., of Boundary Falls. The latter was the only outfit that suffered. Contact with an electric light lole effectually snubbed them, breaking the sleigh pole and otherwise damaging the rig. The other rigs were uninjured, the teams being caught without much difficulty. Dr. Simmons, dentist, Phone 96 Wallace-Miller Block, open evenings. Greenwood fire brigade had a run Sunday i night about 10 o'clock. Fire brke out in an unoccupied shack in Andaconda belonging to J. Wbalen, a miner at the Mother Lode. Whalen had been down from the mine in the afternoon, and left a fire in the stove on re turning home, and it is supposed that a spark from the stove did the rest. The building was a total loss, as the fire had completely gutted it before the alarm was turned in. C. V. Semered, well known in Greenwood in the old days, is registered at the Windsor. Mr. Semered left here five years ago, locating in Edmonton, which was then on the eve of its great boom, where he has prospered exceedingly. Since establishing himself in Edmonton, he has not confined himself to any particular business, - but has been in a number- of enterprises, nearly all of a profitable nature. At the present time real estate is engaging his attention, his partner in the business being I. L. Smith, who formerly conducted a grocery business on Copper street near the Imperial hotel. Mr. Semered, who is an enthusiastic advocate of the Edmonton district, was more than surprised at the evidences of substantial progress made in Greenwood during his absence, and is likety to make heavy investments here before returning home. The recent cold snap brings back memories of the winter, of 1898-99, this being, perhaps, the very coldest weather experienced in the Boundary district since that time. There is as much difference in of the readings of the various thermometers around town as there is in the prophecies of the different political parties as to who will- represent Greenwood in the next legislature; but to strike a fair average the glass must have registered something near 20 below zero. Several citizens have cause to regret it on account of demoralized water pipes, while the fast diminishing wood pile is a source of concern to even the most optimistic. But '��� 'tis an ill wind that blows nobody good;" The woodmen and the plumbers wear a broad and con ten ted smile, and the icemen are laying aside blocks of clear, frozen aqua, that would do justice to Winnipeg. It is fortunate that an extra heavy fall of snow has protected the water mains, as without it serious damage would inevitably have occurred. ORE SHORTAGE The C. P. R. has intimated to the B. C. Copper company that for some time to come the railway will be unable to deliver ore at the smelter ��� from any point except the Mother Lode, not even from the Emma mine at Deuoro will. ore be moved. A similar notice has been received from the Oreat Northern hvregardtotqe product of^theTNapol-- eon mine at Marcus. As the ore from the latter property is of special value as a flux, it will be a difficult matter to keep the smelter in operation, thouerh this will be attempted by utilizing the heavy sulphide ores on the 400 foot level of the Mother Lode mine. No reason for the railways action is eivenj but it is understood that all available rolling stock is being- utilized to rush soal to the various points in the North- west, where a fuel famine exists. ODD FELLOWS SUFFER Local Odd Fellows will hear with regret of the serious loss sustained by the Vernon lodge, last Wednesday night, their commodious Kail and lodge room being totally destroyed by fire. It is not known how the fire originated, but as the building was beitig heated for an entertainment by Mc- Ewen, the magician, it is assumed that some part of the heating apparatus gave out, and coming in contact with the wood work, caused the conflagration. The fire had gained such headway before being discovered that little effort was made to save fhe building, the firemen directing rheir efforts to prevent adjoining stru.*.ture8 from falling a prty to the flames. With the exception of the piano, nearly everything in the hall, including the regalias of- the different societies meeting there, was destroyed. The loss on buildings and equipments will reach $6,000, while the regalia of the different societies is valued at S3.000 more. In- suranceon tne building amounted to $3,000, with $1,0< 0 on the regalias. The Odd Fellows will at once rebuild and have already secured a good siite adjacent to tne Vernon News uilding, temporary quarter*, having been est. b- lished in the Ellison warehouse. h 5 I \V-- g IN THE HANDS OF AN INEXPERIENC- H ED PERSON.

The provincial election has so absorbed public attention that little or nothing has been heard of the civic elections which are now almost due, and from all appearances Mr. H. Bunting is likely to occupy the mayor's chair at the next council without hav ing to conduct a campaign for the position. It is, perhaps, just as well that this should be the case, as it would be hard to find a candidate that could successfully oppose him, or one that would more acceptably fill the position if elected. Mr. Bunting is a enreful, conservative business man, well versed in nearly all the questions- that the council will have to deal with for the ensuing year, and his considerable experience on the board of aldermen lias in every way fitted him for the more important office of mayor. It is possible there may be a contest for seats on the aldermanic board, but so far no new candidates have announced their intention of taking the stump. Mrs. T. P. O'Connor, a Loncloi** Lady | of Wide Renown, .Discusses the Sterner Sex. In an article on Men's Dress, Mrs. Bessie O'Connor, wife of T. P. O'Con nor, M. P., says that "Some men -".re vain enough to imagine that neither men nor women pay any attention to the clothes of a man. There never was a greater mistake thari this. Surely women, who are constantly studying the cut, the linos and thi? fashion of! their own clothes, u-.cossa.rily observe* j the cut and the fashion of men's habil ments. "It was rather the custom of man to associate the idea of a well-dressed man with an empty fop," she forcibly writes. "but the modern man has au eye for beauty and appropriateness of at'.ire. combined with great cleverness in ot Indirections." The Semi-ready idea in men's dross permits tbe wearer to see a suit as it will look when he w*?ars it. He don. it at the Semi n ariy Wardrobe just a- it stands ready to firrsh . up. Tailored superbly, designed in a smp-irt and cultured style, the fabrics arc Hie besi from Ungland's mills. The modern man knows that misfits and c!ie<i|> materials are not economical, for one's success in both social and business life depends upon good tailoring-. There is a Semi-ready tailoring shop in nearly all the chief towns of Canada. P. W. George & Co. vvill be pl**ns>��d to show you how what "Semi-ready.'* tailoring profits the wearer. HAD SLUGGISH LIVEJR AND INDIGESTION CUSTOMS RECEIPTS^ R. R.

The liver rules the body. Bileans rules the liver. "A sluggish liver in my case led to constipation and indigestion," says Mrs. Frances Greene, of Earl street, Kingston, Ont. "I felt dull and sleepy,' had no energy whatever for work, and now and again I had a bad attack of biliousness. The food I ate seemed to He heavy on my stomach aud did me no good. I had wind and cramps in the stomach and bowels from the food decomposing. The constipation was so bad that my bowels had to be forced at each passage. All kinds'of'medicines I tried, but nothing did me any lasting good until I got Bileans. I have uever found anything to equal them for constipa lion and liver and stomach troubles. They soon began to do me good and in the end cured me. Since using theni I feel like a different woman. I,am bright and buoyant in spirits, not dull and sleepy as I used to be. I have .got my energy and activity back, and, in fact, all rny ailments have yielded to Bileans." Bileans are a purely herbal remedy and operate gently on liver and stomach, stimulating those organs to carry out their functions in nature's normal way. Headache, constipation, biliousness; piles, pains in '.he chest aiid back, wind pains and dizziness��� all these symptoms arise readily from derangements of liver and stomach, so that by correcting the root cause of these troubles, Bileans speedily end them all. This i. surely better than taking 'pi'Wders---for-headache,=_h.o.t=_dthi.k*.^f.o.r_ wind pain, and dealing with each symptom piecemeal? All druggists sell Bileans at SO cents per box, or obtainaole from the- Bilean Co , To ronto, upon receipt of price. Six boxes for $2.50.

The leasers, in fact, are working for themselves, and there is evidently no shirking; besides, he has a chance to profit greatly in case a bonanza is struck. The system, while somewhat new in the west, is by no means an American discovery. The "tributer," a.* he waa called in the Cornish mines, represented this same plan at a time when American mining was still v;ry young. BOUNDARY VALLEY LODGE *��ffim*r No. 38.1. 0. 0. F.

The Grip. "Before we can sympathize with others, we must have suffered ourselves." No one can realize the suffering attendant upon an attack of the grip, unless he has had the actual experience. There is probably no disease that causes so much physical and mental agony, or which so successfully defies medical aid. All danger from the grip, however, may be avoided by the prompt use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy, not one case has ever been reported that has resulted in pneumonia or that has not recovered.

Description | The Boundary Creek Times was published in Greenwood, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from September 1896 to March 1911. The Times was published first by the Times Publishing Company (1896-99), and then by the Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company (1901-1911), and its longest-serving editor was Duncan Ross (1897-1907). In April 1911, the Times was absorbed by another Greenwood-based paper, the Ledge. The Times was revived in 1983, and it continues to be published out of a small building in downtown Greenwood to this day. |
