Snnd,y, of South Victoria to restrict liquor. importations in the event of the referendum! carrying . "I notice ,two bills dealing with this problem" are to be introduced by private members," observed Mr. QTerguaon. "Are we to; understand that as a declaration of policy on the part of the government or is this thing arising in the minds of the members personally?" . "The intention of the government is that every man in the house may be free to vote on his own sentiments in this matter." replied Hon. W. B. Raney. . Are the bills emanating from the .government or at the request of [\tlio government?" Mr. Ferguson demanded; "Do they declare the government's policy?", , "Members may draw* their own conclusion from what I have already said." the attorney-general answered; Mr. Ferguson sought to get an announcement of' the. government's policy, 'but the attornoy-general refused any further -statement.

Mac Donald, representing the Quaker* Oats company and head pf a delegation of representative millers which waited on the government to day to' discuss,the serious situation which Canadian mills jftre' facing as a result of the action of the Canadian -wheat.board In continuing the ^pBferictipn In- the .price ofr ■f-le4V-on- the Canadian market , and the lack of export markets for Canadian flour, The increase will be necessary to meet the increasing coat of manufacture. The scarcity of mill feeds in Canada is directly traceahle- to the lack of a market for floUr and the consequent decrease hi the' volume of domestic milling, the millers state. They have asked the government to modify the regulations of the wheat board and to cooperate with the miners in inducing foreign buyers to take a reasonable proportion of Canadian Wheat as flour rather than as wboat. ; Vast quantities of flour are said to be available in the United States for export and this complicates the Canadian prbblem. Tt is said that more than 4000 men have been already thrdwn out of employment by the forced closing down of some of the mills, of which there nrfe about 500 in Canada.

A move to jam it through the house' Friday took shape, but the Democrats; outspoken in ,thpir opposition, finally obtained an ngree- mertt- to postprihe ennslderjition until Monday. While trying to work out a resolution calculated to suit all factions of their parly, Republican committeemen had arranged to call it up Friday, remomberlng that it was on Good Friday,, three years ago, war was doelared. The resolution introduced ; by Cbairma'n Porter of the foreign affairs committee provides ■ for "termination of a state of war," as soon as It becomes effective. It provides fpr' reciprocal trading with Germany under certain reservations and i for a 'repeal of the pesldent's war powers. Germany Would be allowed 45 days "to notify the president that h> has declared a termination of war," and waived all claims against the United States" thdt it would *not have had the right to assert had the United States ratified the treaty ol! Versailles,' Upon Germany's failure* to send such notification, trading, or the making of loans or credits would be prohibited, except with the license of the president. Republican members of the foreign affairs committee, to which the resolution was read, without comment, worked in conference for more than 11 hours before they mapped out a measure designed to overcome all party objections. The committee will meet tomorrow and it is said will replirl on It to the house. After Chairman Campbell of ' the rules' committee had announced that the resolution would be taken up Friday, with four hours set aside for debate, DbnYoerats objected and asked for more' time in which to study and digest the full text. Tills resulted in a. hasty conference between the Republican steering committee and' minority leaders. It finally, agreed to defer consideration iri the house until Monday. Does Not Expect Anything Better in This Year's Account; Refers to Minister of Finance's Surplus as Bookkeeping Sug^r Coats; *Tells Hira Nat to,Pat Himself on the BacFdver It there existed a trade balance against this country of $500,000,000, On the assumption, therefore, that many years would elapse before that would be adjusted, Mr. Bowser be Hevod that an average deficit of 12 per .cent would not be setting too high a figure. That would be found that British Columbia being the case it would be liable for a semi-annual transference of ?73,G0O in interest payments while the cost to the pro< vince to discharge the principal at this rate would, reach 5249,000 tho total1 reaching'. 5367,500. .On this basis of reckoning, the" leader pointed ou that tho loan even tually would cost the province % or 10 per cent instead of 5%. CZECHOSLOVAK 'ARMY TO MOVE ACROSS CANADA VICTORIA, March 31.—Criticism of the budget by W. J, Bowser, opposition leader, was the feature in the legislature today. Harking back to the fiscal year 1918-19, he reminded the house there had been an actual* deficit in the trading account of the province amounting to $1,181,006. He proceeded1 to show that in the year in question there had been expended on "current, account the sum of $9,887,744 and $2, 224,541 on capital account. To set against this sum he recalled to the house that the receipts for the same period did not exceed $10,931,279.. On that account, he said, it was useless of the minister of finance*- to pat himself on the back in respect of surpluses which as a -matter of fact were nothing more than bookkeeping sugar coats. In connection with the 1918-19 discrepancy-' he emphasized, the government had been obliged to borrow to meet it. Nor could it be expected, lie proceeded, that the year 1919-20 iwhich ended today, would show any better resultB. What fortune was in store for the year 1920-21, cmeried the opposition leader, as he proceeded to enumerate the various amounts to be expended and received during the twelve month period which commences to: morrow. "You are going to spend the sum of 513,960,711 on current account, and you are going to spend another ,53,449,961 on capital account," said Mr. Bowser, as he totalled' up the amount to $17,410,961, as the record spending year in the history of British Columbia. Against this sum your estimated revenue does not go beyond 5i3,978,- 245. In other words you will find a deficit at the end of the year amounting to 53,422,428," he declared. "You are going to spend tbi record sum of $17,000,000 in the next fiscal year," said the ex-premier as he asked the occupants of the government benches If they knew what the people were sayihff. "The people want to know where the administration is going, anfl'your answer is 'We don't know whpre we are going, but we are on the way.' What wlft the people get out of this expenditure?" asked Mr. Bowser, "except a deluge of increased taxation." There was nothing startling in Mr. .Btiwser's opinion, in the. fact that |;fehe revenue this year had increased * Sinn Fein propaganda, which he exclaimed, pointing to the government, "you are doing nothing to counteract." "Do you suppose that if I worked against the bill and if. it. was killed and the 1014 act becomes effective T could call upon my' tt>\-\ lowers to get. their rifles to maintain our position In ihe sis Ulster 'counties, when this bill-gives us the rfght U* control ' those i.oimtlieft." asked Sir Edward Carson. He declared that Mr. Asquith, by liis proposals for amending the 1914 measure, "'killed his own child" which was so distasteful to UlBter. He promised that Ulster would do the best It could tinder the two parliament plan. Attacks Asquith Plan Premier Lloyd Oeorge also allocked tho Asquith plan, saying that ii was leading to the proclamation iif an Irish republic and secession. William. Adnmson. Labor leader, said he was opposed to the bfll and that his followers had adhered to his decision in a vote, but he did not outline any definite plan for n. solution. He stated his personal views which, he said, should not bo confused with the views of his ; party, ffs he had not placed them before the leaders of Labor. He was one parliament with full powers' {•cessation of butchering at the stockyards. Dennis. Lane, international secretary of the Meat Cutters union, with which striking workmen, are affiliated, was expected to arrive tonight to aid .In bringing about :i settlement. Denial that the union had asked [l'fop federal mediators was made by LMartin Murphy, president of the stockyards labor council, who declared the meV would "stand by their [/guns and fight.'' Packing companies today found themselves •with scant material to keep their plants in operation and faced the prospect of closing before Saturday unless the strike ends, A shortage of fresh rheat in .the Chl- ,cago area brought abpilt; a sharp advance In prices. Patrick Griffin, a union official, today declared if the controversy was not settled in a few days, stock handlers In packing houses In all [jimrts of the country would be called out. Meantime, stock normally destined for Chicago was routed to other packing plants In the west. Chicago packers Usually send out$3,- 000|0fi0 a day at this time of ttfe year for livestock, and this huslnens has stopped.

Gives Wider Scope LONDON, March St.—The Ixmdon Times considers that the very .rob- sumiiul majority secured by the government on the second reading oC the home rule bill, gives It ''wider freedom to. frame and pursue In accordance with the high principle a great meas.ure of constitutional reform." •in Us present form," The Times continues, "the bill is far from an equitable settlement and it will require cogent evidence than ^parlia- memary division list to persuade the lrh.h people to the contrary. Nevertheless, we hold that it is withla the powers of parliament, vastly lo> improve u. Now that I'lster has given her grudging assent, there remains to be fuirilled the paramount duty of securing" for the' nationalists of Ireland a measure which will at ,east he a fair installment on the- hopes."

WOMEN'S VOTING STRENGTH IS LESS WASHINGTON, March 29.—Bat* lots cast by women In the coming presidential election will fall short of the potential men's vote by over 2,500,000, provided the suffrage amendment in ratified and slate registration laws enacted in time, to permit women all over the country to participate, according to, estimates by the National Woman's party. - With the 1910 census as a basis, the Woman's party estimates the number of men eligible to vote nt 29,1)77,ti!)0, and the possible woman voters at 26,883,'5G(i. In 19_.fi, however, the actual vote cast for all various presidential candidates was 18,528(743, omitting ballots thrown out for cause, which loaves over 11,000,000 possible votes unregistered. If as largo a proportion of the men voters remain ^indifferent in the coming ' election, women political leaders here -say that 'the eagerness of women to exercise their newly acquired privilege iiiyy more than offset the disparity in' numbers between the sexes. In five of the states, moreover, women of voting age outnumber the men. Massachusetts has the greatest preponderance of women voters with 58,264 more -women than men, North Carolina is next with a women's majority of 15,288, and South Carolina with 10,307 is third.. In Rhode Island women of voting age outnumber the men by 3190, and. In Maryland by 12S2.

March 31.—(Canadian Press}—A' rtum'ber of bills calling . for' 'tariff readjustments whicn affect Canadian interests are now before the United States congress. Oiving to the pressure of other business * tht*se measure have received but little attention from the members of the United States house this session and it now appears likely that most of them will he sidetracked. Nevertheless their Introduction indicates that the United States has not abandoned Its high protection principles and it is generally bglteved that had it not been for. the favorable balance in trade with Canada, some of these measures might have been pressed, more strongly than Ihey have beon. Two of these bills propose to put a duty on wheat and flour. Cne, introduced by Representative Young, of North Dakota, calls for a duty of 25 cents a bushel on wheat, and $1.32Vj per barrel on flour, with a 10 per cent ad velorem duty on ■ semolina and other products oE wheat hot specifically mentioned in the act. This bill has met with a good deal of opposition and it is not likely to be passed. Mr. Young has second bill, which is now before the Committee of Ways and Means, and which proposes, a duty of 10 cents per, bushel on wheat and 45 \ cents per bushel on flour and oilier; wheat products, as well as 25 per ent ad velorem upon potatoes. These bills indicate that Canada Is till regarded as a competitor of the U. S. in wheat and flour. A bill which has attracted a tfood deal of attention in view of Senator Underwood's campaign to 'force the cancellation or modification of Canadian provincial regulatiotis limiting the export of pulpwood to the T/n- ited Slates,, was introduced by Representative Hull, of Tennessee; Senator Underwood's proposal was to appoint a, commission to study the question with a view to discovering what measures could be adopted to induce the provincial governments to let down the bars on pulpwood and his resolution merely contained a hint of retaliation. Mr,I Hull goes him one better. ! His . bill includes a provision in-' tended to penalize Ontario and Quebec for their export ...prohibition on, wood used foi*'-fthe • manufacture of! wood pulp. It calls *for a duty of 12 per eCrit on printing paper valued above 8 cents per pound, "provided, however, that of any country, dependency, province, or other subdivision of government shall impose any export duty export license feeLi, or other ' charge of. any other.kind whatsoever ^whether in the form of additional charge or. license . fee or otherwise) upon printing paper, wood pulp, or wood used in the manufacture of wood pulp, there shall lie Imposed upon printing paper, valued above 8 cents per pound, when imported either directly or indirectly from such country, dependency, province,' or other sub-division of government, an additional duty equal to the- amount of the highest export duty or other export charge imposed upon either printing paper or upon an amount of Vood pulp or wood for the manufacture of wood pulp necessary tQ manufacture such printing paper." The- effect of this would be force the American customers of Canadian millsJ to pay extra duty upon imported from the t provinces j which have pulpwood exportation restrictions, and would mean the penalizing of United States newspapers, which ;ire forced to look to Canada for a large percentage of their print paper supply. The bill is now before the Ways and Means committee. The general opinion is that it has but. little chance of being enacted, Other bills still under consideration which: affect Canada include jthe following; A bill .providing for a duty on magnesite ore of one-half cent per pound and a higher duty on manufactured mughoslto. In the year 1018-19 'Canada sold the United States magnesito; to the value oi ^79fi,23fi., A bill' proposing to regulate the importation of, coal-tar products by prohibiting the bringing in of any of these- products If they Can be secured In ;the the United States.

AUSTRIA IS'DOWN IN THE MOUTH VIENNA, March 31.—A wave of pessimism has swept over tho coun- since Baron Koranyi, minister of finance and food, controller, returned from Paris with empty hands except for some small food credits. Newspapers express regrcat at tho delay of the hoped-for American loan and publish warnings of approaching exhaustion of food supplies and of another crisis. Depression prevails in f business circles. Manufacturers declare that these driblets of loans for food pur chases aro futile and that onl: credits sufficiently large to . enable business to get on its feet by the purchase of coal and ruw materials will, postpone the complete break down of Austria. One of the't basic causes of the country's paVnilJsis is lack of coal due to the failure of the coal supplying nations, to live up to their agreements. For this reason industries are Idle,. Austria's natural and logical coal supply lies in Bohemia* and Prussia; or Upper Silesia. ' Under present arrangements cc;al is secured what there Is of it, under agreements he tween state governments and upon arrival here Is distributed by government officials. The supply is so small that virtually all' of it needed'for limited railways operation, the gas and- electric plants and limited private domestic use. ■ - None remains for industries and no factories except those producing the necessities of- life" are1 in con atant operation, , For ■ instance, the great Florisdorf locomotive works, with a capacity, of. 150. locomotives a year, have been idle for four weeks While all Europe. Is crying for rait- way motive pqweh , The demand for freight cars ia insistent and yet the Graz caj> factory .with -a;, potential capacity*of" 80j cars a month'produces less than fifty, because coal ii not to be had and consequently they cannot secure wheels, axles and structural iron for bodies. Vienna is surrounded by a forest of factory stacks, but smoke Issues from but few of them. This has been true ever since the revolution fifteen months ago. Manufacturers say that if coal can be assured in sufficient quantities, they will man- ago to flrid raw materials enough to start with and slowly build up credits for more. Commission after commission has vainly tried to obtain deliveries of the, conl for which contracts were made with Czecho-Slovakia. ! The reason for "this failure, is unknown hero. One expert says that unless Austria is allowed to gel coal from the Upper SHeshun fields, whence has always, come tho bulk of Austria's supply, her population must be de* ported or the country will perish under starvation and anarchy. This solution, he says, lies In the hands of tbe^powors.

There does not appear to be any other course open. Certainly they are not disposed to go and get him. From the ex-kaiser's viewpoint it would not appear to matter much whether he is kept in ignominous imprisonment on his own estate at Doom or whether he is held a prisoner at some point outside Europe on a judgment of an international court. Perhaps his chances of escape and of causing more trouble .are a little better, but at the present time Wilhelm is haidly likely to attempt an escape into Germany. There are many there^who would welcome him with something other than th« glad; Band.

Hiram Johnson of California, for example, and Senator Poindexter of Washington are*'men of long experience in American politics and both have a large following. Hoover is being put forward as a business man who will save the country during the reconstruction period. . He has a magnificent record as an organizer and business man and stands high in the eyes of the commercial world. ■ But big successful business men do not always make a success in public life. Nor do men who have -made great successes in politics often prove successful if they leave politics ana devote their whole efforts t^'busihe1--.-' Jt. is natural that the' average man' should be a greater success in his chosen occupation than in some other. That is the reason that so many men successful in business have failed badly in politics It requires experience,^ training and natural aptitude to be successful in politics, in public life, just as it requires similar qualities to be successful in business.

Lewis Mulligan in the Toronto Globe; Indeed the aurora which appeared on Monday evening was not In tho form of the usual Northern Lights; It spread out northwest to southeast from a point at the zenith* like a pair of ethereal wings, radiating in a southern direction. Tho centre of radiation did not change, for it Wiis observed tu keep constantly in the region of a brilliant star,1 a little south of the zenith. At times this centre, or nucleus,' seemed to swirl or writhe as if a puff of smoke; had been blown Into the atmosphere' from without. It would them radiate in a wing-like form across the whole of the sky in the direction above described. The edge of the "wings" were sharply defined as if tho rays were prevented from completing a circular fan-like , movement. These facts should be Intorcating —if not valuable—to scientists, in view of the mistry that surrounds this beautiful phenomena^ * Of one thing we are certain; that these luminous rays are electrical. This is very obvious to the unimaginative telegraph operator, whose business of sending out electric waves is ;erlously interfered with by these ethereal communications., it is not suggested here that, the aurora is a visible demonstration of an attempt on the part of one of the planets to communicate *by wireless with the earth,, though there is an excellent pportunity for the more fanciful to work out a theory along these lines The present writer has no doubt that the aurora was not of a terrestrial origin, but that it was projected into the atmosphere from some near or distant outside source. The sky waB perfectly clear, and the stars could be seem even through the thickest parts of the aurora, so that the lectric energy could scarcely be generated by any disturbance in the atmosphere itself, as is the earth with an electrical storm. This theory finds some definite snpporl from Dr. Ronald Campbell Macfie, the poet, in his remarkable book, "Science, Matter and Immortality." In a chapter dealing with "Electrons and the Aurora Uorealis," Dr. Macfie says that the spectrum of tho aurora shows that it is largely produced by vibrating molecules argon, krypton, xenon, neon and other rare gases of tlie air which collect in the upper layers of the atmosphere. The presumption Is, therefore; very strong at the Aurora BoreallB Is caused by electic discharges — dicharges of electrons through the upper layers of the atmosphere. But where do the electrons come from? After explaining tho effect of sun-spots in sending cut showers of electrons into .space, EJfia Macfie concludes: In brief, the Aurora Borealis is due to the bombardment of the rarefied gases of the outer atmosphere by electrons ejected by the sun and borne across space by light pressure." This explanation, while it is interesting, does not quite satisfy us, so far as the aurora Is concerned. The idea of tho "bombardment" is all, but if there was such a bombardment it was directed at one definite point in the atmosphere, and the projectiles were of an explosive nature, as indicated by the central swirling movement and the ever-shifting, fan-like rays. If the aurora were caused by the "pelting" of our atmosphere with electrons the illumination of the rare gases would' be of a' nebulous or cloud-like character. This theory does not account for the ray formation of tho auror, which is an Important discrepancy. It should also be noted that the recent display was not colored, but was pure white in every part. This may have been due to the fact that it appeared in the zenith and that the prismatic effect usually seen in the Northern Lights is caused by the location on the horizon, like he georgeous coloring of clouds and amosphre at sunset. ■ WIRELESS TO MARS Marconi, Edison, Tesla and many of the greatest men science are today testifying that they have received Wireless signals they cannot account for or explain. These signals show ft definite code of some sort, but not the morse code! They Save also received in various parts of tho world at the same time seeming to show that some outside scourco is sending these messages. Another argument liV favor of this belief '_$ the fact that these wireless waves are so long that, no station on this earth would bo big" enough to generate and scud them. Thus, M, Marconi says that in order to Kond such wireless waves a station carrying ■ antennae wires approximately tw« miles long would be necessary-rand we' know wo have no such station on our" earth.

MANY TRADITIONS ON HIRAM ABIFF Mm-o legend . than fact, has been woveft around the 'character/of Hiram, tho widow's son,' of Tyro, or ii,s lie fs more generally known, Hiram Ablff. This last name, now- ever, docs not occur in the English liible. It is first met with in the Germtui translation, which was the tt'tirk of Martin Luther. He translated the words: ''Hiram, his father," in II. Chronicle*, ii., 33, and i\\, 1G as "Hiram 'Ablff," , and the same reading is now to be found in the Swedish version. Catmet, in his dictionary of the bible, has pointed out that the word "Hiram" signifies "high intelligence," and says thai Hiram Wan called "father" by'Solomon and the King of Tyre because he was the chief director of the work on the temple. It is clear that Hiram could not have betin tho father elthor of David or of the King of Tyre. It is of interest to recall that Khurum or Hurum. is idential with the Egyptian Her-ra, Hermes or Hercules. The word Abi ' or Ablff. regarded by some writers as a surname, was a title bestowed by the Hebrews as an honor upon their chief advisers and the intimate friends of the reigning monarch. The story of Hiram is given l:i the Old Testament, J, Kinfs. vil, 13-45 and II. Chronicles, If, 11-14. In the first place Hiram is described as the,son of a widow of the tribe of Naprtalll, and in the second as the son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, an, obvious impossibility, as n woman could not belong to two tribes. The Rev, Morris Rosenbaum, a well-known Hebrew and Masonic scholar, maintains that the two Hi- rams are spoken of, and points out that they wore engaged upon different work In connection with tho building of the temple. One was a brass-smith only, but the other was an all round workman, tikillful in every kind of metal work, also in stone and timber; conseouenty,' a builder and a master of device, an architect. One Masonic tradition runs that about four years before the building of the Temple Hiram Ablff, as the agent of Hiram, King of Tyro, purchased some . curious stones from an Arabian merchant, and upon enquiry where he met with them he was told that they had been found upon an island in the Red Sea. King Hiram I at once sent his agent to Investigate ' and he had the good fortune to discover many precious stones, and among the rest an abundance of the topaz, with which the King of Tyro adorned his palaces -and temples, as we read in Ezekicl, xxvlil, 13 Subsequently, according to Pliny, the island was called Topaz, from the abundance of this stone found there. The story familiar to Free Masons Is that Hiram Aljliff was slain before tbe templo-was completed, but if only one IItram.. was referred to in the Old Testament, this story lacks corroboration either there or in ,To- sephns. Masonic tradition asserts that he met his fate within the pre- cints of tbe Temple before the work was completed, which is at variance with I. King vil, 40, and II. Cfirun- icles iv. II. According to Mr. Rosenbaum, the legend . of Hiram Abiff's' murder can bo substantiated . by tho Scripture narrative, although there is no mention of it' in tho Old Testament. "Huram, his father." he contends. rqfers to tho father of Hiram, tho. second, who said in verses Immediately preceding to have carried out the casting of the hugh brass articles, and that the proper interpretation of the passage in Chronicles: "And Huram (the father) made tho pots and shovels, but Hi- rum {the son) finished all the work which he made for King Solomnn," v\7.., the two pillars, the sea and the layers. . In the history of the Masonic degree of architect wo are told that on the stoppage of the work in consequence of the passing of the chief architect of the temple, King Solomon assembled all the masters, who were distinguished for their talents, and formed tKem in a lodge or council to supply the place of HirtitQ Ablff and conferred on them the privilege of entering the Sanctum Sanctorum, on the portal of which had been engraved the letter "O" inclosed within a blazing star. From Um, period the plans and designs o( the temple were placed at the disposal, of the Lodge of Architects. The Ghiblim, or stone squarters, polishers and sculptors, says Dr. Oliver, a high Masonic authority, were tho Dionysiacs, a society of architects, who built- tho temple of Hercules at Tyro and many magnificent edifices -in Asia Minor.; Def ore :;the temple of Splomon was projected. They were the masters and wardens of the Lodge of Masons during the erection of tho famous edifice; to them was intrusted tho execution of those works of art and genius which were projected by the chief architect, Hiram Ablff; they maintained, order and regularity, throughout the vast ■ number of inferior, workmen and laborers. Hiram Ablff lived towards the nd of the tenth century, B. C, at which time, and many centuries later In tfie time 'of Tutmep- HI. (about 1G00 13. C.) Hiram's countrymen were renowned for the productions of works of art. Dr. Anderson, In \ his "Book of Constitutions," issued in 1738, says "Solomon had labor.;rs of his own; but was much obliged to Hiram, King of Tyre,' for many of the Ghiblim and Bonan who lent him his best artists and sent him firs and cedars of Lebanon; but above 11, he sent his namesake, Hiram Ablff. who, in Soomon's absence, filled the chair as deputy grand master and in his presence was the senior grand warden or principal survey and master of work."

THE LOVELIEST CURLY HAIR—SO EASY ^TO HAVE Such pretty waves and curls, having, all .the appearance of "Nature's own"—yes, you can have them, easily, quickly, if you will just apply plain liquid sllmerlne before doing up your hair. The hair will have such a lively lustre and wholesome beauty. And it will he fine and fluffy when combed out. If you will get a bottle of liquid silmerine at any drug store and follow the accompanying directions, you will be simply delighted with the result— Which will be in evidence within three hours, and which will last a long time. The hair will be quite manageable, no matter in what fashion It is ■worn. Tin liquid, which is perfectly harmless, wl1 be appreciated also.as a spleiuliiP.lre.,. ing for the hair.- Cuticura Soap Complexions Are Healthy GRIP-FIX HIS T|piS Get It in Capsule Form From Your Druggist; No Substitute Does the Same Wo* While the Spanish InflUerissn prevails the best plan is to play safe. Have two or three boxes of Grjp-KJx In your home and you can laugh at colds and "flu because you have right there the treatment that does the trick. The best thing that doctors can do in 'llu cases, Is to allay the different symptoms as they appear. There is no specific against--*the disease and the treatment of individual symptoms is the uniform method employed in nearly all .cases. The symptoms of cold and 'flu are' nearly identical. In a great many instances medical men ; themselves can. not distinguish between . them. For. many years, Grip-Fix has been relieving colds in a single night. The medicine is in capsule form and gives prompt results. Grip-Fix is swift, safe and su^e. . Grift-Fix is compounded of Phenace- tin, Quinine, Salol, Caffeln Citrate, Cascara and Camphor Monobroinate. These drugs ■constitute the standard prescription that most doctors use for the alleviation of a cold. Ask your druggist for Grip-Fix and Ite sure you get the original. There's nothing else like it.

TD BIG SPOR E Baseball and Lacrosse Being Talked; Cricket Week Possible All indications p'pint to a very active season in sport In Nelson. Air* the old base-ball players and fans are anxious to see some good baseball played in the clty*this. year. Lacrosse, the national gome, has also its coterie of youhg. devotees, who are equally anxious to start something in their line. While track events, running and jumping, are also likely to attract considerable following. Thei* is also talk of a cricket week. The local Y, M. C. A. has already two sets of base-ball outfits on ord- 'er which are likely to arrive in the next week, and is contemplating making the initial steps towards the organization of a city base-ball league, with an eye ' towards the ultimate formation of a West Kootenay league, to include all the district towns on this side of the line, and, if possible, a numbefr of others across the border. There is plenty of promising material In the city with' which to support two or three base-hall and lacrosse teams. Tho high school has a large number of- young fellows who will be anxious to get into the gaim with both feet. And round and about! the city offices, railway shops, and stores in the city there Is any amount of red blooded active men able to give a good account of themselves and hold their ends up oi the diamond, or with the .across* stick. Apparently there will be no need for the games to suffer this yen on account of a lack of outbide opponents. Trail has already organized a base-ball club, and othei towns are expected to fall in line shortly, and there is no reason whj inter-city meets of an athletic nature may not be of frequent occur- ance this spring and summer. In addition to base-ball, Y.M.C.A officials hope to organize loams for tack work in running and jumping and to do their part towards making the athletic side of the Nelson fair attractions thoroughly representative of all sprts of sporting events, with entries from all over the Kootenay. The fair board is prepared to meet sporting enthusiasts half way In the matter, and will no doubt arrange for the best possir g showing of. athletic, events it is possible to stage. , * LOOKS FOR OLYMPIC MEN IN PROVINCE VANCOUVER, March 31.—Accord ing to word received here, Waller Knox, of Orillia, who is to prepare tho Canadian track and field teams for, the Olympic games at Antwerp, Belgium will visit British Columbia cities next month for the purpose of looking over Olympic material.
