In the recent election  campaign in Great Britain she struck a responsive chord in many minds  when she said:  "Tt is the 100 per cent. American and the out-and-out Englishman I  fear. T think 100 per cent, citizens ought to be locked tip. They are a danger  to the world."  Everybody knows what a 100 percenter, or an out-and-outer, is. He is  to be found in more or less substantial numbers in every country, although  his favorite stamping ground is the "North American continent. The 100  percenter may he distinguished by several well-known characteristics.  In  the first  place,  he hails  as a  great moral principle  the  immoral  dretrine embraced by the famous motto, "May my country be always right,  "but 'my  country right   or wrong."   This  naturally  scales   down  into   "my  state  (or province), my city, my ward, my party"���������and. not infrequently,  "myself."    ' In essence it is placing a nation, or a locality, or a group of  it.  Backache seldom or neverx means  kidney trouble. Tt is no th ting more  than the tired, wornout muscles of.  the back showing their exhaustion  because of the lack of good, pure  blood. . The one generally recognized  efficient blood builder is Dr. Wil-  persons associated  together for some common cause, above every ethical j Hams* Pink Pills.

The best  form Is Phillips' Milk of Magnesia? because one harmless, 'tasteless dose  neutralizes many times its volume In  acid.

They are therefore in need of all the  nourishmenr and strength that plenty of pure red blood can give them.  Unless they have this help, you will  have backache and continue to have  or moral judgment of mankind, above the sense of right or -wrong.  .Another sign of the 100 percenter is a steadfast belief that everything  that is American, or Canadian, or English, or Italian, is right, because it is  American, or Canadian, or English, or Italian. The logical consequences of  of such an obsession is that he cheapens his country's flag by dragging it in  and flaunting it on every possible occasion.  The 100 percenter is not all bad, of course. He merely fails to see tnat.  patriotism is not the cause but the result of a sound and honorable national  life. He is the victim of current standardization of thought which manifests itself in slogans and headlines. Not everyone would want to go as far  as Lady Astor and have hini locked up. Nevertheless he Is a danger  because his enthusiasm is rooted mainly in a mass of intolerances. And  intolerance, as Lady Astor implied, is one great obstacle to civilized social  progress. *  has been improved through the use  of this medicine backache disappears. Mrs. F. Fairbairn, Essex, Ont.,  tells what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills  did forfyhei* iii?? a\ case of this kind.  She says:���������-'T suffered for nearly  three years with a weak back. At  times "the pains were so bad that I  had to walk half; doubled over. I had  tried several doctor* with very little  benefit. A friend urged me to try Dr.  Williams' Pink Pills. I did so, and  oh, the joy of once more being able  to stand up straight without suffering intense pain'. After using two  boxes there was no doubt they were  helping me. I used eight boxes in  all and have not since ..had a sign of  And in civilized social progress lies the hope for tlie ifuture peace of j fjxe trouble.      I can. do all my house  the world. If the American, the Canadian, the Englishman, the Italian  insist upon the acceptance of their particular national views, and intolerantly refuse to see any good or virtue in the views of others, what hope can  there be of the nations drawing closer together? & .    .  And if the 100 per cent, doctrine is sound and right, and the 100  percenter is to have his way, what hope is there for the future of many  nations of today? Take Canada as an example. If tha 100 por ce,nt.  Easterner adheres rigidly to his yvi^ws, declares he alone ts right, but  whether right or wrong, he will not budge from any position he has taken  on fiscal or other questions, and the 100 per cent. Westerner adopts tne  same attitude, what will be the outcome of the Canadian Confederation?  Apply the same attitude of mind in matters of race, language, religion,  and government in Canada,-and in each of the provinces of Canada, becomes  an impossibility. The 100 percenter would wrfitek everything if he does noi  bave his own way.  All history proves that intolerance has been the cause of the world's  greatest sorrows, the underlying, cause of its-bloodiest wars. Intolerance of  race, intolerance of national customs, intolerance of religion, intolerance of  social conditions, the 100 percenter in the ranks of employers and in trade  unions, these are the real dangers in tbe world today as tbey were in tbo  years that are pasfef  The 100 per cent, demagogue with a glib tongue and a reckless  disregard for truth and fact by attracting tbe attention, playing upon tbe  passions, prejudices and sentiment of those who are so swayed rather than"  guided by their intelligence, can undo the work of generations of statesmen,  and render difficult and oftttmes impossible the work of the true reformer.  The man who boasts he is 100 per cent, this or ,100 per cent, that is  merely advertising the fact that he is intolerant in his views and narrow in  his vision and conception of life. He may bo sincere,' but his sincerity is the  outcome of his intolerance, and bis intolerance has its foundation In  ignorance and a prejudiced mind. As such he is a national danger.  work and not feel tired and wornout  as formerly. For all this I thank  Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

Would   Have   Dominions   Agree   On  Signing Of Optional Clause Of  , World Court Statutes  Important negotiations affecting  Erppire affairs, are reported to have  been initiated by the new Labor  Government of Great Britain. It has  communicated with all the Dominions in an effort to gain agreement  on the signing of the optional clause  of the word court statutes, under  which questions of international law  would be submitted to the permanent  court of international justice, at the  Hague.  . The Labor 'newspaper, the Daily  Herald, said also that the Labor Government has informed the Dominion  governments that it proposes to resume diplomatic relations with Russia.  The world court matter requires  .agreement of all the Dominions, and  it is expected this can be secured  without much trouble. Australia,  hitherto, was probably the only Dominion reluctant to sign, the optional  clause, and it is understood this, reluctance has now been removed to a  great extent. In any event, Premier Ramsay MacDonald is hopeful of  being* able to show complete Empire  agreement on joining the world court  when he visits the League Assembly,  at  Geneva,  in  September.  So far as Russia is concerned, the  Labor Government is already pledged to renewal of diplomatic negotiations, this .being a necessary and im*-  portant step towards the desired increase in British trade with the  -Soviet Union.  Will Increase Empire's Trade?  if.8.  Tariff Likely  To   Blvert   Trade  To  British   Dominions  Increased United States tariff  against ^Canadian products will  divert Canada's trade more and more  to the other Dominions of the British Empire, helieves Norton Francis, president of the Canterbury,  New Zealand, chamber of commerce,  and prominent business man, who is  visiting Canada and the United  States for the purpose\ of studying  relations between the fanner and  city industry on  this  continent.  In an interview at Winnipeg, Mr.,  Francis said he does not think  Canada can meet the tariff situation  by further raising her own tariff  scale, but should concentrate on increasing her manufacturing and inter-empire trade.  Search For Oil In Manitoba  Western Oil Fields Arc Gradually  Extending Eastward.

In addition to this amount the  ���������trustees will submit plans for a  badly needed  heating plant for  the central school building which  will cost over $3000.  In the past there has been some  demand for manual training, and  the trustees will put forward a  proposition whereby this class of  instruction can be Jaad to advantage in co-operation with Kaslo  and one other school in she inspectorate. Our information is  that manual training would entail  an expenditure of about $1000 the  first- year, and $500 per annum  thereafter.  In connection with heating the  school something must be done  immediately, as the old plant has  served its day. It is likely the  expense in this connection can be  spread over a period of years.

SYNOPSIS  After a night of revelry at, a New  York uptown night club, Marcus, the  famous revue -producer, takes a- party ot four to Blackie Joe's downtown club, which stays open until  sunrise. They are seated at a  "ringside table" by Al Stone,  Blackie's chief comedian anti-singing  waiter, who takesfr t&eir f order for  beer. .Al is- unawares off Marcus's  identity. Grace,* the cigarette f?irl, is  ���������dievoted to Al sind really in love with  him, but he does not see that. Al fills  the^order for beers and? on his return  from the bar sees Molly, the "ballad!  singer in her dressing1, room. He]  moves toward her as if drawn by a'  were impatiently' waiting for them  in the big room outside, forgot  everything* except the girl he adored  ���������Molly. ._  He stood quietly by her .side for  a moment, saying nothing. And  Molly, the ballad singer, continued  deftly the Wtsiness of making up, as  she: sat before. her dressing table.  She wished to goodness that this  singing waiter, who was always  composing silly songs, would transfer his affections to someone else  But, finally, she couldn't escape the  penetrating insistence of his-eyes as  he gazed over her shoulder at her  decidedly attractive reflection in the  mirror. She turned her head with a  ; sigh of resignation, and said ambiguously:,  "A.in;t love grand!"  Al  did  not  know quite   what  she  5 meant by that,   'if  she were spoof-  magnet. He is in love withh^ but* **% bi^ didn't  Molly is indifferent to him.'       r        i mind. Whatever she.did she couldn't  CHAPTKEVIIIyy:  Al entered Molly's dressing room,  de^ositihg^has tray of beers on a  nearby  stand. He    forgot    the  drinks, forgot the party of fashionably  dressed  men  and women  who  ilrwnl  prevent" his loving her. But now her  remark unlocked the flood gates of  his speech,    f.   .  ���������'I Oan't help 'ity Molly, if I'm  crazy about you," he "whispered aife  dently, coming still closer. "Ive  been that way ever since the first  time I saw you. I think you're the  most beautiful girl  in the world ���������  H 8      mlm\*fW%������:'P.-iffBr^ '.-��������� '.   Al longed tofre&ch. out and stroke  her glossy golden hair; he wanted to  catch tier beautiful little white  hands and pull her close to him. But  he realized he couldn't do that now,  her attitude said so plainly, "Stand  off!"-:' ;f .P'''*r'' P-P/y  "������������������'''��������� As" for Molly, she was mildly  pleased and flattered at tlie impression she, had made. No woman dislikes being called the most beautiful girl in the world, even if she  doesn't love the man w1kv says it.  But, after all, he was just a singing  waiter,, a chap with, no prospects,  She said to him crisply::  "Be yotirself, waiter."  The remark should have been-like*  a slap In the'face to Al, ---but it  wasn't. If he had stopped.to think he  would have known 'she addressee  him as "waiter" aimply to humiliate g  him, -   ��������� ������������  "Yoti know, Molly," he began a  earnestly, "I'm. rwt going to be a'2  waiter, all my life. Seme day Tn: \ g  going to sell-some of the songs I've'e  written. Bon't you see, Molly, tnat ||  if I just have you by my side I can't f~  !up aa Al, extended the song for her  inspection.  "Molly J" he plfeaded desperately,  "Can't you see that, although I can't  talk the way I feel, I can write my  feelings into music- I've written  this song just for you. I want you  to do something for me���������^sing it.tonight."  Al's beseeching tone would have  brought a sympathetic response  from almost any woman, but not  Molly. She was humming softly to  herself as if to drown out his words.  Meanwhile, the beers stood on ihe  nearby table, the white, feathery  foam gone, from their tops. Meanwhile, Marcus the- gread producer,  was in the outside room raging at  the dela*y.  He rapped peremptorily on the  table and finally summoned Blackie  Joe himself to make a complaint.  Blackie listened, nodded rapidly, and  headed for the bar in search of Al.  But at the doorway he glanced down  the corridor and saw. hi& singing  waiter in earnest confab with Molly.  Blackie took the situation in at a  glance, "but decided; not to bawl out  Al. After all, when ya^. man's in love,  you must expect him. to be halmy,  reasoned Blackie. He stepped to the  doorway and said, not unkindEy:  "Come on, Al���������on the job."  Al turned to his tray of beers but,  before' picking it up, thrust his precious song on Molly's dressing table  before her.  "Read the words, please," he  begged and, catching* up his: tray  vanished.       - .'   ->yy? -y  ? Blackie Joe stood nonchalantly in  .the doorway, one hand thrust into  his trousers' pocket, staring after  Al's retreating back. Then the proprietor turned to Molly. ���������~-"~:'  Vr"Molly, do your stuff tonight. Mar-  qus is out in front." ^  Molly straightened as if touched  by . any. electric, shock. All trace of  bpredom vanished.  "Shut my mouth, Blackie! You  don't mean it���������hot Marcus who puts  on the roof revues?5' P.  "JTo one else but/' said Blackio,  nodding delightedly.  The glow- in .Mblly*s eyes was replaced by a cool,? ^calculating stare.  Marcus was outside���������what an oppoi-  tunityi Marous, whose ' approval  meant,fame!  . "Blackie," she begged, "introduce  me?"  ^Blackie nodded���������"Okay, I'll, do  that"���������and returned to his floor  show. Two boy hoofers were strutting their stuff near the Marcus table, while Al was serving the belated beers..  As Blackie. came closer, he heard  Marcus's protesting voice:  "There's a fly in my beer I"  Al leaned over, ^quick as a- flash,  and answered:  "Sh-h! Not so loud���������they'll all be  wanting them."  Marcus, turned away in annoyance.  Al shouldn't wisecrack that m way  with such a man, thought Blackie.  It was all right with, the regular  patrons, nut hot with anyone like  Mafcus. But before Blackie could  smojoth things out,. Al had piclced up  the^glass and hurried off to bring a  new? beer^    ~- -,   - - .     ,  At the bar doorway he again con=  fronted Molly���������if? her most gorgeous  costume, garbed for conquest.  "Molly, did you.like it?".  "like what?r'  "My song. Will you alng.it?':  Molly's eyes flashed in sudden  anger. "Por heaven's-sake,- Al,. let  me "alone I I've important business on  tonight. I didn't read it and I won't  sing it! That's flat!" -   >  As Al recoiled before her lashing  words his gaze dropped.
