Great Service To Mankind If Scientists Can Discover Cause and Prevention of Common Colds The ambition to "make colds as rare as smallpox" la said to be the moving force behind the proposal of the Chemical Foundation to organize and support extensive and intensive scientific research into.tho cause and prevention of common colds. That this ailment yearly takes an 'enormous toll in discomfort and Ju loss of energy is well known. That It ls ono of the most difficult lo guard against Is also accepted. Hut many persons have long felt that medical and lay men alike havo been too much inclined to regard colds as inevitable. The former havo not devoted enough attention to prevention or cure and tho latter have not realized the dangers and Responsibilities o>f infection. If, therefore, some organization of a scientific character can undertake an exhaustive study of colds in al) their forms, and can find for them the preventives which,, unless tho lessons of checking much more dangerous diseases are to be ignored, must exist, it will bo doing a great' service lo mankind. Even when colds are not followed by graver illnesses like influenza or pneumonia,'they inevitably lower the individual's resistance to all types of sickness.���-New York Times.

When called upon at 3, Bushncas Avenue, Mrs. J. h. Zealley, daughter o/ thclateDr.Bevan.of St. David's,S. Wales, said:���"My boy Alfred scratched his leg^with the brass tag of a shoe lace.^ A nasty poisoned sore developed and it defied all the usual ointments. Hearing splendid reports about Zam- Buk I decided to give it a trial. To my prcat relief, the balm soon caused healing to uet in. All inflammation and poisonous matter was ouickly removed i>y Zam-Buk, and it healed the sore without having a scar. "Again when I fell over a steel fender and injured my knee badly, Zam-Buk alone saved me. My daughter, a nurse, was of the opinion that only an operation could remove the mass of inflammation and pus. But I again pinned my faith to Zam-Buk, and it cleansed and healed the wound."

Relics Of Franklin Expedition Mute Evidence of Tragic Sattle Against Hunger and. Cold Further relics of the ill-fated Franklin Expedition have come to light���a skull, fragments of navy cloth, a piece of shoe leather, and a piece of oak from an ico sled, picked up by a trader, Peter Norberg, at Thunder Cove, Adelaide peninsula, ten miles across tne Simpson strait from King William land, off whose northern point the "Erebus" and "Terror" were abandoned, seventy-eight years ago. J. 1<\ Moran, inspector Tor the-. North West Territories and Yukon branch of the Canadian Government, brought back, iheso latest Franklin relics���ior (here is liltle reason lo question lhat such they are���on his return, from Ak- lavlk, in the Mackenzie delta, to Edmonton. - Medical men aud anthropologists have examined the skull and pronounced it to be chat of a white man. All (he toe Ih save ono molar are absent from the skull, aiul the jaw bono is pitted as though rotted with.,._curvy. The navy cloth Is faded and stained from conlacl with iiea water audi from long exposure in the t-lemenls, but It is clolh of the type used for genera- lions, in theunalcing of the uniform of P.ritish seamen. ' The piece of oak is apparently part of a rib from a snow sled, shaped and cut' ojf at one end with a saw. Thc strip of leather is evidently part of a white man's shoe. Finally, the location of the relics llieinsclves lends color to the theory ihat these are relics of lhat tragic battle, against hunger, cold and exhaustion which ended in death on the inhospitable rocks of King William's Land., or on the ice of Simpson strait., as the last survivors dropped the frozen traces from their bloodless hands and laid, themselves down to wall, the mercy of deaih, Thunder Cove, of Adelaide peninsula, is almost in the direct, line 'which the men would, take as they followed Ihe west coast of King "William's Land southward to Simpson strait nnd headed south and oast toward Ihe estuary of Great Fish river.

Since the discovery of the Potosi; mines, 400 year's ago, over 20,000 tons of bar silver have been taken from this one mountain alone, enough to form a column of solid silver one square foot in section ancl rising to 1.6,000 feet. ' In addition, immense quantities of tin, gold, bismuth, copper, marble, ancl sulphur have" been produced. It was Potosi that supplied tlie bulk of the precious ingots that found their way lo Spain, in the treasure-galleons of history. -' , , The'city was'founded, in .1546 by treasure-hunting Spanish adventurers, and the story of its foundation and growth is told in the ancient archives which still exist in the-city loday. , At the height of its prosperity It could boast of 60 'churches and a population of 160,000. 'But with tho abolition of bimetallism and consequent depreciation in the value of silver the city fell upon evil .days. The d,isusea factories in the city outskirts and tho many, magnificent public buildings falling into ruin today tell their tale of decay. It is still, nevertheless, an active and wealthy city. Canada Should Develop Strong National Spirit Children Must be Taught to Take Pride in Being Canadians Says the Horder Cities Star:"If Canada needs anything it is the development of a strong national spirit. Our children; from coast to coast, irrespective"of racial sources, must be taught to glory in'the 'fact. Just the other day the writer of these lines* talked to ari.eager-eyed, olive-skinned lad, obviously the son . of South ' European parents. "And what country do you belong .to?", the' boy was asked. His reply was prompt, "I'm a Canadian!" he said, and the words were uttered with pride. That is the spirit. Let's have more of it. And at the same time it would be .well, for-Canadians of Anglo- Saxon slrain to be more considerate in their use of Urn word "foreigtu*." Except for the Indians, we are all for-' eigners more or less. Canada lias grown to her present position because so-called foreigners were willing to come. in. Many millions more of them will be required here before we reach the national success for which every true Canadian should strive. And in Canada, let us make sure, every man who is willing to work should he given fair opportunity and equality of treatment.

One, wliich we think-has-been printed before is that which Browning, the poet, told him of Longfellow. Tlie two poets wero once driving througli the London streets in a hansom cab, when a heavy shower sud: tlenly came on. Longfellow insisted upon thiustiug the umbrella Ihrougn the. trap in. the roof of the cab, so.that the driver might protect himself from ihe rain-���which he did. That is precisely what you-might expect Longfellow to do-r-a kind-hearted generous 'gentleman if ever one lived. Another concerns George Thi Manner, tho famous illustrator and author of Trilby. lTo was always, annoyec: when anyone called him de Maurier instead of tlu Matirier. Tie said once: "Follows will write to me as do Maiv rler; I wish tliey would give the devil his ilu." The third story is about Archdeacon Wilberforce, who was ono of tho earliest foes of the evolutionary hypothesis of Darwin. The Archdeacon was visiting Sir John Hare at his seaside homo at Overstrain!,~ and Hare, who was very fond of dogs and was hardly ever to be seen without one by him, asked hiin this question: "Uo you really believe, Archdeacon in a hereafter for our dogs?" "Indeed I do," said Wilbcrlorce. "But do you mean that 1 shall really see my dog again?" Hare persisted.- '\\ Cy &�� "Undoubtedily���if you are enough," was tho response.11 good Relieves Asthma at Little Expense.

At the end of three years, as a result of a policy of improvement rather than new construction, British Columbia's whole highway system will have been revolutionized. The purpose of this scheme is, first, to give all the settled areas of British Columbia communication with the trunk highways and thus with all the main centres of population; ancl, secondly, to rebuild and relocate all the bad sections-of existing roads.'. Included in the programme are improvements on the Anarchist Mountain road, which links Southern Okanagan and Osoyoos country with the Greenwood area. Four miles of the road over this . difficult ascent must be entirely relocated e and in this seption scarcely any maintenance work is being done meanwhile.

"^EW citizens give thouglit~to"what the Brewing Industry means to British Columbia, as an industry, yet it is an important factor in the industrial life of this province. It is not necessary to emphasize th'e~ millions of dollars invested in the brewing industry. in this province. The thing that must not be lost sight of is that there are hundreds of men. employed throughout the year in the making, storing ancl transporting of the products of the breweries of British Columbia. Breweries are constantly improving and keeping modern their plants. The Amalgamated Breweries of Bntish Columbia have spent over $300,000 in the last few months for improvements and equipment. Breweries are an important customer of the farmers of British Columbia, their purchases of grain and hops running into huge figures each year. There is no British Columbia industry that spends more ^ofiits-total4ncome-right=-in=this=province*than=the= brewing industry. The brewing industry brings large sums of money into the province. British Columbia beer is attracting attention abroad for its purity and high quality. Export markets in Australasia, China and India, are constantly growing. British Columbia beers are winning their way in these countries in direct competition with beers from Great Britain, Germany and Czecko-Slovakia. They are winning their way on quality and they are powerful advertisements for this province. Tacts like these are not romantic, but they are important and should be considered by every citizen. They are not commonly mentioned by those whose business it is to attempt to destroy the brewing industry in their determination that the people of British Columbia shall be prevented from enjoying a pure and healthful beverage in an open and above aboard taanner. Proof of the high quality of the beer manufactured by the Amalgamated Breweries is the remark on recent analysis made by McDonald and McDonald, analytical chemists of Vancouver, "stating: "By the analysis, samples prove to be excellent beer. They are high in extract, nitrogenous matter, phosphoric acid and ash, while the acidity is low and the volatile acidity practically nil, which is proof that the beer is a wholesome nutritious beverage.", (Signed) JtfcDONALD & McDONALD, X y i Per A.
