We are ready for a decided advanci of democracy toward a ��� real and responsible government In which both rights and duties arc equalized, The present conscription has elements in it which were impossible to lhe days of sixty-one. Our railways arc passing under government control, The manufacture of steel is no longer an Intcndcut enterprise, Pood supply is becoming a matter of legislation. The need of governmental direction which the prophets have seen ami felt is being puslf-d forward as a war measure. In three months wc have gone farther toward the'elimination of the trust than-in the thirty years preceding, and can anyone believe that we can ever return to the situation of even one year ago?

Father -The idea of vour calling your teacher a nuisance? What do you mean, sir! Tommy���Well, that's what you call me when 1 ask questions! an' teacher don'l do nolhin' else. --Boston Transcript. When Dr. Michaelis spoke for th* first lime, as Imperial chancellor, to the Reichstag, he made no rcfirence that Germany could hope to accomplish ber objects by the operations of her armies. He addressed himself, in the very first placi, to the. sub marine campaign, expressing complete confidence that it would bring victory to Germany and her allies. The direction of the submarine campaign has evidently been taken over by the military authorities, and it was General von Ludehdorfi, and not the chief of the admiraliy staff, who said that the submarines would reduce our tonnage and diminish the supplies of ammunition available fot our troops. Evidently llie German) have two main objects in view. The military staff hopes that by molesting our transport their ends may be attained. The bankers, financiers, and shipowners of the Fatherland indulge the expectations that our mercantile marine will be crippled by the end of the war, just at the lime when enormous subsidies applied to their own are bearing fruit. There is no real reason for alarm in lhis country, but the people must realize the situation if the economy campaign is to have proper result*. The prime minister, with well-trained optimism, said that our losses were not so great as they were, but our output of mercantile shipping was increasing rapidly, which will upset some German calculations, and that our food supplies are assured. It will bc observed, however, that the measures referred to are mainly of a defensive character���the building of ships, which may yet be tar- gels for submarines, and the conservation of national resources. The submarine will be suppressed only by offensive measures and the destruction of the U-boats or the crushing of them at their bases, The principal areas of activity may be brought under better control, for there are regions of peculiar peril to shipping and others where it is practically immune. The navy must do the business. Sir F.ric Geddes, speaking to his constituents at Cambridge after his election, said one of the soundest: things that has lately heen said about the navy, and it had reference to the suppression of submarines. "It is my duty to know what the Sea Lords are proposing tn do, and to get through the material and resources at their disposal, to form an independent opinion as to whether they have enough or should have more, and in every possible way, as far as a civilian can, help them in their work." This is the right spirit. The public must put trust in the navy, and help it also with their confidence and their economy in the use of national resources. They must not under.!'." Ihc real seriousness of the submarine menace, nor. think that we are Hearing llie end of its ravages. There is no single or finally effective remedy for it. The navy was never at a higher pitch of efficiency than at the present time. It has full confidence in Its chiefs afloat and ashore, but there it a feeling that it is not given a fair chance. Let it have every engine it requires in abundance, and then by vigorous action tlie submarine^ me.n- ace will be brought tinder stronger control.���London Daily News. Hospital Slacken How a Fourteenth Century Humerv ist Outwitted the Imposters Stories o_ how to outwit imppsters who report sick in order to loaf In hospitals are among the oldest traditions of the medical branches of all armies. A fourteenth century collection of anecdotes shows that the malinger was known in those days. ;��� nd-Cardinal de Bari, who had a hospital at Verceil, found its resources were being exhausted by men of this type. Onc day he sent one of his subordinates to investigate. This man, Petrlllo by name, who was something of a humorist, dressed himself In ihc robes of a physician and assembled all the patients for an examination of their wounds. Then he gravely said: "There is clearly but one remedy needed to the cure of ulcers of this character, and that is an ointment made of human grease. This very day I Intend, in consequence, to dravy by lot one amone- you who will be plunged alive into boiling water and cooked for the salvation of all." Seized by fear, all the patients made haste to report themselves as fully recovered from their ulcers and consequently there was room in the hospital fo. those who really needed care. Phy* sicians today, by the use of similar ruses, have discovered many "hospital slackers."

Price of Bread The Prospective Price of Bread and Flour in the U. 8. The average retail price of Family Patent 1'lour in New Vork from April to August, inclusive, this year, has been $15.36 per barrel. Upon the declared fair price for wheat thc New Vork price of Family Patent Hour in the larger packages should retail In at between $11.75 and $12.75 per barrel, depending Oil the milling yield of wheat this year and the price of mill feed. 'The. price of bakers' Patent flour to small bakers and retailers iu jute packing, allowing for llic millers' and jobbers' costs ami profits, should range between $10.35 and $11.25 per barrel, depending on the milling yield of wheat and lhc price of mill feeds. At the present tiin�� contracts arc being made in New York for wholesale lots of bakers' Patent llour in jute bags at about $10'65 per barrel to jobbers, whose present, basis of distribution would make the flour cost llie small baker and retailer about $11,011 per barrel. The price in Boston will prubobly be 10 cents inure per barrel, while :iat in Pittsburgh should bc 10 cents less; in New Orleans 25 cents less; Chicago 35 cents less; in Minneapolis 50 cents less, and in Kansas City 60 cents less per barrel. Ai the prospective prices for flour it is improbable that a full 16 ounce loaf can be delivered lo the consumer for less ihan 10 cents per loaf, unless the consumer will join with the bakers and retailers in eliminat- ig needless cost. It may be pos- hle to reduce the cost of bread by about two cents per loaf if co-operation of bakers, retailers and consumers ran be secured lo effect a standardized loaf, and if wasteful practices which have, grown up out of competitive conditions can bc eliminated, and a rclliction iu deliv ery and credit brought about. Some bakers of u large volume and with special delivery conditions, may even bc able to increase this savings somewhat. 'The baking of large loaves under non-delivery and cash sales conditions iu large sections of Kurope would permit the sale at the bakery door of a 16 ounce loaf from this prospective price of flour for six cents. The higher labor, fuel costs and methods of distribution through retailers, delivery, credit and other expensive re-handling systems In the United States increases the price. Utilization of Waste The utilization of waste in the battle-wrecked pans of France has been reduced to tl science, All the pieces of shell, cases, itncxplodcd bombs, haversacks, heliuets, canteens and even old rags are picked up and sent down to the base to be utilized in some form or another, At one spol 50,000 old shoes were bring repaired when a war correspondent visited it. The Upper part of an old shoe is often converted into shoe laces by an ingenious machine invented by an Irish .shoemaker. One thousand five hundred French girls arc employed al one salvage shop convert ing overcoats picked up on the fields. For many years to come lhe beef cattle business will be more profitable than in the past. The reason is that then: is a world Shortage of cattle. Europe is depleting itself for war purposes and il is estimated that Kurope alone will stand in need of from 15,000,000 lo 20,000,000 cattle at the end of llie war.���Breeders' Gazette.

' Women Workers in Britain Jh One County 1,500 Women are Employed in Farm Labor In one county in England 1,500 women arc officially reported cm- Igloyed in farm labor of one kind or another. This is according to a .'Statement from the oflicc of lhc food sontrollcr of Great Britain. This indicates to some degree thc Icpcitdcncc of England upon thc farm labor of women. Soldiers stationed in England, however, arc being used to as large an extent as possible iu the harvesting of the .rops. Miss Talbot, director of the Woman's Branch of Agriculture of Sreat Britain, reports that the conditions for the women working on the land are being made as pleasant .3 possible, and that they are doing all classes of farm work. Iu speaking of the different types of women ivlio have laken up farm labor she rays: "There was the cottage woman hedging and ditching alongside the university woman. In the milk shops and out in the fields where the hoc- lug and manure spreading were going on, 1 came across a tea shop waitress, a housemaid from the Mansion house, and hh officer's daughter. This is surely something akin lo the ranks of the new- army, filled as tlicy are wilh men of all classes. The farmers seem to agree lhat women have a special aptitude in the case of stock. "Tlicy arc gentle, and that tells with an animal,' they reported." Official reports from every county In England give due credit to the as- slstancevbeing given by women in lhc fields, snowing how widespread their work ou the land is. Rocks for Ammunition In the ' semi-official correspondence from the Russian eastern front pitiful stories are related of soldiers driven mad for the lack of shell and rifle catridges, who turned to the ground on which they were making a stand and dug up big stones and hurled them at the oncoming foe. And in that brave, desperate man ner tlicy fought till they fell. they Imow itis good for them W. N. U. 1171 Buckwheat Screenings E. S. Archibald, Dominion animal husbandman, reports that buckwheat screenings as a feed for swine of all ages is very valuable, For finishing and young growing hogs well-ground buckwheat screenings will produce as great gains as will a mixture of wheat shorts three parts, fine ground corn three parts, linseed oil meal one part. This latter mixture at present prices is worth fifty-four dollars per Ion on eastern markets. BABY'S OWN TABLETS ALWAYSJN THE HOME Mrs.. Eugene Vaillancourt, St. Ma- tliieu, Que., writes: "My baby suffered greatly from constipation so I began using Baby's Own Tablets. I was surprised with the prompt relief tlicy gave him and now I always keep them in the liouse." Once a mother has used Baby's Own Tablets for her little ones she always keeps a supply on hand for_ the first trial convinces her there is nothing to equal them in keeping her little ones Well. The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

Should lac Pish Substitution of Fish to Save Meats Is Recommended The. campaign lo substitute fish to save meats has been so successful that fifteen additional refrigerator cars are to bc used for transporting Atlantic fish to central Camilla. Arrangements for the extra service were made al> a special meeting between the fish committee under the food controller of Canada and representatives of thc railways and fish producers. The new arrangements include increased service through special trains, when necessary from the seaboard to interior points. The increased service will make possible a much wider distribution of fish and will insure the arrival of the fish at their destinations hi good condition. While substitution of fish for meats is a comparatively new thing in Canada, made necessary by the imperative demand to conserve meats for export to the Allies, its growth has been remarkable, and the need for stabilized market conditions in interior points that an adequate and steady supply of fish might be depended upon, made the new irrar.gcmcnts Imperative.

This drug dries at once and simply shrivels up the corn or callus without even irritating the surrounding tissue. A small bottle of freezone obtained at any drug store will cost very little but will positively remove every hard or soft corn of callus from one's feet. If your druggist hasn't stocked this new drug yet, tell him to get a small bottle of freezone for you from his wholesale drug house.

NeSau-l-i.'iitE.eCtaieril Licensing of the Sugar Trade Is the Next Step The licensing of all manufacturers, refiners and importers of sugar has been officially determined upon by President Wilson as thc next step in the control of staple food commodities. The critical situation in the sugar markets, anticipated during the fall months, makes prompt action necessary, and the proclamation of the president will require the licensing, by October 1, of "all persons, firms, corporations and associations engaged in the business cither of importing sugar, or manufacturing sugar from sugar cane or beets, or of refining sugar or of manufacturing sugar syrups or molasses." The issuance of liceusi s, llie promulgation of rules and regulations for the. government of licensees, and general control of the sugar industry will rest with the food administration and has been already generally dis cussed and approved by the leading men in tlie industry. General liccns ing of thc industry will serve as a slep toward lhc regulation of prices by the prevention of speculation and the securing of equitable distribution. The. sugar problem being one of distribution as much as of supply, the solution is to'be brought about by voluntary agreements with the trades, the essential principles of which have been already settled.

THE PROPER WAY TO USE COPENHAGEN CHEWING TOBACCO Copenhagen Qhewiug Tobacco is entirely different from the ordinary "plug" or "fine cut".

What answer will Canada make? What answer will you make? Shall it be said that Canada spares not her sons from the sacrifice of battle, yet withholds her dollars to give them victory? Rather will it be said that Canada once more, for the fourth time in three years, cheerfully puts up her millions upon millions for the cause of freedom, righteousness and justice. Canada's answer must be, ���that the Canadian hand to the plow of Victory holds steadfast and firm. ���that Canada is in deadly earnest when she says the "last man and the last dollar." That is the answer Canada will give to our boys in the trenches, our kinsmen in Britian, and our Allies everywhere. That is the answer we will give to the Huns who thought and said that Canada would desert the Empire before she would fight or pay. Every bond you buy is an answer.
