C, Dec. 3.\u2014President\nRoosevelt today sent his annual message to congress., it is a voluminous\ndocument making about thirty ?hou<\nsand words The president's opening\nwords are an answer to criticism of\n- his policy towards large corporations\nwhich his critics have sought to show\nare responsible for the recent financial\nhurry in the country.\nThe fundamental business conditions\nof the country are sound, the president\ndeclares, and it Is foolish for people to\nwithdraw their money from the banks.\nMoreover, he continues, the business\nof the people Is conducted with honesty\nand propriety although in*any large\nbody of men there are certain to be\nsome dshonest, when the misdeeds of\n-these successfully dishonest men are\ndiscovered suffering comes, not only to\nthem, but upon the Innocent men whom\nthey have misled, in an effort to punish the guilty tt Is both wise and\nproper to endeavor to minimize the\ndistress of those who have been misled but U Is not -possible to refrain because ot such distress from striving to\nffit an end to the misdeeds that are\nthe ultimate cause of the suffering snd\nas a means to this end where possible\nto punish those responsible for them.\n\"Interstate commerce must be controlled,\" the president coontlnues, \"and\nonly the national government can in\nthorough going fashion exercise the\nneeded control. This does not mean\nthat there should be any extension bf\nfederal authority, tor an authority already exists under the constitution \\iu\namplest and most far reaching form,\nbnt it does mean that there sbpul^ be\nan extension of federal activity,\"the\nmost vital need ts In connection with\nthe railroads. As to these, tn ntf\njudgment, there should be either y*\nnational corporation act or a law\nlicensing railway companies to engage\nin Interstate commerce upon certain\nconditions. The law should be so\nframed as to give to the interstate\ncommerce commission power to pass\nupon the future Issue'ot securities,\nwhile ample means should be provided\nto enable the commission, whenever\nIn Its judgment it Is necessary, to make\na physical valuation of any railroad.\nAs stated In my message to the congress a year ago, railroads should be\ngiven power to enter into agrecmeiu\nsubject to the agreements being made\npublic In minute detail, and the consent of the Interstate commission being first obtained. Until the national\ngovernment assumes proper control of\nInterstate commerce In the exercise ot\nthe authority It already possesses It\nwill be Impossible to either give or to\nget from the railroads full justice.\n\"Moreover In my judgment, thera\nshould be additional legislation looking to proper control of great business\nconcerns engaged In Interstate business, this control to be exercised for\ntheir own benefit and property no less\nthan for the protection of investors\nand of the general public. As I have\nrepeartedly said ln messages to the congress \"and. elsewhere, experience has\ndefinitely shown, not merely the unwisdom, but the futility of endeavoring\nto put a stop to all business combinations. Modern Industrial conditions\nare such that combination la not only\nnecessary,, but Inevitable. It is bo in-\nthe world of business just aa in the\nworld of labor, and it is not my desire\nto put an end to all corporations, or all\nbig combinations of capital any more\nthan it Is my desire to put an end to\noomblnatlons of labor. Corporatou\nand labor unions alike have come to\nstay. Bach If properly managed Is a\nsources of good and not evil.\n\"The antl-tnwt law, should not be\nrepealed, but lt should be made both\nmore efficient and In harmony with\nactual conditions. .It should be amended to forbid only the kind of combination which does harm to the general\nPublic, such amendment to be accompanied by, or to be an Incident of, a\ngrant of supervisory *ower to the gov-\n..\u2022rnment over these big concerns engaged In Interstate business. This\nshould be accompanied by provision for\nthe compulsory publication of accounts\nand the subjection of books and papers\nt\u00ab the Inspection of th\u00bb-government\n\u2022fHclnts. A beginning has already been\nBade tor such supervision by the <*\u2022\ntabllahment of tbe bureau of corporations  . v.   -\n\"The design should be to prevent the\n. abuses incident to the creation of unhealthy and improper combinations in.\n\u2022lead of waiting until they are ln ex-\nstence, and then attempting to dwtroy\nt\u00bbetn by civil or criminal proceedings'\n\"A combination should not be tolerated If it abuse the power acquired\nby combination, to the .public detriment. No corporation or association\n\u2022Tany'klnd'should be permitted to en\ngage In foreign or interstate commerce\nthat Is formed for the purpose of, or\nwhose operations create a monopoly or\na general control of, the production,\nsale or distribution of any one or more\nof the prltfce necessities of life or more\ntides of general use of necessity. .\n\"Suoh corporations are against public\npolicy, tbo violation of the common laW,\nthe doors of the courts are closed to those\nwho are parties to them, aud I believe that\ncongress can close the channels of interstate commerce against them for lta protection. Reasonable agreements, between,\nor combinations uf corporations -hou d be\npermitted, provided they ale first submitted to and approved by some appropriate government  body.\n\"Provision should also be made for complete publicity In all matters atteot'ng the\npublic and complete protection to the in-\nVesting public and the shareholders In the\nmatter of Issuing corporation securities.\nThose who fear, from any reason, the extension of federal Activity wll^ do well to\nstudy the history, not only of the national\nbanking act, but or the pure food law,\" and\nnotably the ment Inspection law recently\nenacted The pure food law was opposed\n\u00abo violently that Its passage was delayed\nfor a decade, yet it has worked immedlhte\ngood\n\"In my message to congress a year ago\nI especla'Iy called your attention to the\ncondition of onr currency laws I aga'n.\nurge on congtess the need of immediate\nattention to this matter We need a greater elasticity In our currency, provided, of\ncourse, that we recogn'se the even greater\nneed of a safe and secure currency There\nmust be rigid examination by the national\nauthorities.

P. R. for the wholesale\nimportation of \u25baheap Japanese lalwr\ninto this province. The terms of Cuns-\nmulr's contract with the Japanese\nagency Indicate clearly hts contempt\nfor the laws of tne province aud it\npublic opinion and by the provrsions\nof the C. P. R. contract all maintenance of way work on the western lines\nof the railroad corporation would\nsurely have passed into the hands of\nJapanese coolies had it been possible\nfor the Nippon Supply company to\nhave fulfilled its part. The gravity ot\nthe conditions the consummation of\nthe Dunsmuir and C. P. R. contracts\nwould have created cannot be overestimated and lt Is abundantly clear\nthat legislation must be enacted that\nwill prevent the big corporations from\nflooding this province with Asiatics\nwhenever they feel so disposed.\nThe News-Advertiser report reads as\nfollows:\nThe agreements with the' colliery\ncompany bore the signature of lion\nJames Dunsmuir, lieutenant-governor\nof the province, and H. Morris Hills,\nsecretary of the Wellington Colliery\ncompany, while that with the CT P. R.\ncompany was signed by F. F. Bus-\nteed and Alan Purvis\nThe agreement dated .The Slst of\nJanuary, 1907, between the Wellington\nColliery company on the one part and\nthe Canadian Nippon Supply company\non the second part, provided that the\nSupply company will within the next\nfour months supply the Colliery company with some 600 Japanese conf miners of requisite skill, phyalque'aml efficiency for the working of the colliery for a period of five years, and\nthe Colliery oompany will employ such\nminers as-long aa the mines are being\nworked on the terms hereinafter mentioned. How many should be common\nlaborers, how many miners and how\nmany mouMers was next given, and\nthe provlsj) that If any legislation was\npassed which would prevent complying\nwith the terms of the agreement,\nneither party should be liable to the\nother for the damage sustained. The\nColliery company to pay over the wages\nto the Supply oompany and the Supply\ncompany to pay the same to the miners\nand Indemnify the oompany for any\nproceedlnn, claims or demands against\nthem.   The 'Supply company  also   to ,\nkeep proper hooka of accounts, payrolls, etc.\nThe scale of wagea payable to such\nminers and which were to be paid to\nthe Supply company were to be as follows: Common laborers, third clase,\n|1.36i second class, $1.46, first class,\n$1.56. Moulders, machinists, carpenters and miners, $1,60 to $1.90, payable\nfor every day of eight hours under\nground and ten hours above ground.\nThe Colliery company was not to employ any Japanese miners during the\ncontinuance of this contract except in\nsuch case where the Supply company\nfailed to supply the men.\nThe Colliery company was to do all\nIn Its power to protect Its miners from\nattack and furnish suitable police\nsupervision In their behalf. In the\nevent of any strike taking place, the\nSupply company was to use Hs utmost\nendeavors to prevent its miners joining\nthe same, and in case they did strike,\nthe Colliery company was to be at liberty to terminate the agreement. This\nagreement was to remain 1n force for\nAve years, except' after sixty days'\nnotice on the part of one of the par.\nties of Its desire to terminate It.\nGotoh's negotiations with the Colliery company fell through and the\nagreement did not take effect.\nThe Nippon company has a similar\nagreement with the C. P. R. which\nholds good from 1907 to 1912 and which\nhad been drawn up on June 1. There\nwas a scale of wages mentioned in the\nagreement. The men were to receive\n$1.65 per day tor those on extra gangs,\nwhile $1.35 to $1.50 was to be paid to\nmen on section gangs. The company\nreserved the right to terminate the\nagreement. The contractors were to\nhave charge of all men and to he held\nresponsible. Each year the company\nwas to furnish the contractors with an\nestimate of the number ot men that\nwould be required. If the contractors\nwere unable to supply '.he number asked for the company reserved the right\nto employ others.\nOn April 15 ot the present year the\ncompany had advised the contractor\nthat from 500 to 2,009 would be required this year.\nCross-examined by Mr. Wilson, the\nwitness said tbat when the Nippon\nSupply company was organized he\ntransferred all his business with the\nC. P. R. to the company. He has given\nemployment to about 1,400 men here\nthis year, but no laborers had been\nbrought here by the company.\nWESTMONT MINING CO.\nFRANK   GRIFFITH'S   LONG   FIGHT\nIS SUCCSfiWUL.\nSLOCAN PROPERTY LIKELY TO BE\nLARGELY  DEVELOPED.\n(Special to The Dally News)\nSlocan, Dec. 3.\u2014Frank unffuns, ons\nof the owners ot the WeBtmont, on\nTwelve Mile, was lately called to Toronto and In company with Ellis, of\nToronto, the other owner of the property, has put through a deal, by which\nthe Westmont has been acquired by\nthe Westmont Silver Mining Co,, which\ncompany has been formed Ior the Purpose of working the mine.\nThe formation of the company, with\nthe strong likelihood of development\non a large scale, is the successful culmination ot a long and courageous\nstruggle, Mr. Griffiths having worked\nthe property single-handed for fifteen\nyears.\nThe property is now and has been\nfor some time, a shipper, and will very\nprobably become a leading mine, under\nnew and more extensive working.

L. COCKSHUTT   REPLIES.\n(Special to The Dallv News)\nOttawa, Dec. 3.\u2014A number of measures\nthe mapirty of wnich are familiar In\npast sessions were introduced today\nbefore proceeding wltb 'the deate on\nthe address, among them being Turriff's proposed amendment to the railway act. Turriff said that in the past\nicharters were secured Iby dozens oi]\ncompanies who had no Intention of\nconstruction but who would build n\nmile or so and then apply tor an extension at the end ot Ave years and\nsecure it without much trouble, thereby\npreventing companies that msap business from getting charters; Lancaster's\nbill to prevent trains running at high\nspeed through towns and villages;\nMonck has reintroduced his bill aiming at the establishment of a system of\nco-operative Industrial societies, In\nfavor of which a special committee reported last session.\nIn reply ft a question the mlnfEler\nof finance said that the report of the\nroyal commission on the civil service\nwould probably be made to the home\nbefore the Christmas vacation.\nHon. W. S. Fielding opened the de-\nbate by declaring cabinet appointments\nto be a matter for the .premier except\ntor the regular parliamentary explanations, and pointed out In choosing a\nleader many promlneut (conservatives\nhad been passed over. Passlng.to surpasses he said the conservatives bad\nsurplusses totalling nine and a halfl\nmillions and deficits totalling $12,330,-\nOOu or average annual deficits of $745,-\n000. The liberals gross surplusse's\nwere ninety-four millions and one deficit of five hundred and nineteen thousand, or a net surplus of $93,600,000.\nThe conservatives had special and capital expenditures ot eighty millions and\nhad added sixty-two millions to the\npublic debt. The liberals' special and\ncapital expenditures were twenty-seven\nmillion and they had Increased .the\npublic debt five millions. If conserva7\nfives were not satisfied why did they\nnot move for a change of tariff.\nSpeaking of Borden's western tour he\nasked to what tariff was he committed?\nBorden\u2014\"I spoke on that.\"\nFielding\u2014\"For    or   against   protection?\"\nuorden\u2014\"I declared the highest\n'tribute ever pafd any government was\nthe adoption of the national policy by\nthe liberals.\nFielding admitted-the protective ele-\nmout in tbe present platform but declared the Ottawa platform of 1893 wus\nstill the guiding star of the party.\nAfter defending the government\nagainst the charge of the inadequacy\nof the postal service Fielding condemned Borden for re-opening the\nquestion of provincial subsidies for\nthat question was closed, as far as\nparliament was concerned and It was\na violation of the principles of statesmanship to' projiose to re-open it.\nPremier McBrlde came to the provincial conference not to get a subsidy\nbut to get a grievance adjusted.\nBorden Interrupted to point out tbat\nNew Brunswick and Novj Scotia had\ncommissioners of arbitration. Fielding\nreplied that these were monetary claims\nfor property while the other was only\na grievance pure and simple.\nBorden\u2014\"I do not see the difference,\nmerely money claims on each side.\"\nContinuing Fielding, referring to the\nelectoral corruption, said the records\nof each party since confederation were\nalmost parallel. The balance was ot\nthe side of one of the two but he was\nnot certain which side It was on; many\neminent and respectable men had been\nguilty of foolish, corrupt and improper\nthings in matters electoral but the\nconservatives had no right to pose as\nthe party of purity .and he did not seo\nany sign of change ln the Colchestefl\nele$1on. The only dissatisfaction!\nfound ln Nova Scotia was on account of\neconomy on the Intercolonial.\nReplying, W. L. Cockshutt thougbt\ntbe country expects, in view of the\nserious financial situation, something\nelse than a speech marked with levity\nand dealing with everything but tha\nfinancial conditions. Trade figures\nwere not reassuring. Canada had\nbought $121,000,000 more than ahe bad\n\u2022old. They were on the hill of prosperity for some years and were etill\non it but unfortunately, on a tooggan\ndescending fast Cockshutt took \u2022\ngloomy view of the outlook of workmen\nwho In hundreds were walking the\nBtreets. Destitution had already commenced In Toronto. Tbe government\nmust rearrange tha tariff no that Imports and exports more closely correspond.\nThe United States contrived that the\nbalance was always in their favor and\nthat there waa no reason why Canada\nshould not do the same. He declared\ntnat the lime would come when finan\ncial institutions would be able to do\nmore for the minister ot finance than\nthe minister could do for them. He\ndeclared further that the Imperial conference was a failure and proposed\nthat the government collect duty on\nBritish goods and donate preferences\nas Canada's sbajre ot imperial defence.\nHe was not hopeful ot tBe French\ntreaty and concluded by moving ' an\namengnent to the address regretting\nthe financial stringency nnd deploring\nthe reckless extravagance of the\nLaurier government'' which materially\ncontributed, and especially the present\nincrease of taxation, taking money\nfrom people's pockets, thus weakening\nthe financial structure.\nIS NO LIMBER COMBINE\nFIND-NO OF OBIBF JUSTICE SIFTON\nAT EDMONTON\nRETAILER CLARK FOUND GUILTY OF\nCONSPIRACY\nW. A, Anstle, (secretary of the Mountain\nLumbermens\" association, has returned\nfrom Edmonton where he has been attending as a witness -the trial of Vf. H. Clark,\npresident of the Alberta Retail Dealers'\nassociation, in conspiracy In restraint of\ntrade. Chief justice Sifton, in handing in\nhis Judgment said that so far as the relation between the Alberta Retailers' a&aocla\ntlon and the Mountain lumber manm|ic-\nturers were concerned, there was no evidence to hold the defendant guilty on that\nindictment. His lordship decided, however,\nthat Mr. Clark waa guilty, with other retailers, of conspiring to control the lumber trade of Alberta and Imposed a fine\nof $500.\nThe count on the Indictment on which\nthe decision of the court Is founded charged thnt \"W. H. Clark did conspire with\nothers or some of them to unduly prevent\nor lessen competition in the production,\nmanufacture, purchase, barter, ea et transportation or supply of an article which\nmay be a subject of trade or commerce,\nto wit, lumber, and did thereby commit\nnn indictabe offence contrary to the criminal code, section 498.\". The finding of\nthe court will be a bitter disappointment\nto the Alberta retailers, who contend that\nthey have done nothing unlawful in the\nprotection of their Interests and in the endeavor to obtain a fair profit ln 'handling\nlumber.\nIn commenting upon his lordship's decision, Mr. Anstle said that manufacturers\nwould find it difficult to understand how\nAlberta retailers can have \"unreasonably\nrestricted competition,\" when anyone with\nre.(ulslte financial' standing could embark\nin the retail lumber business upon making\nhts wishes known to the mills. It Is true\nthat different individual have been refused lumber by the mountain mills, but\nthe reason has always been that the applicant had not satisfactory rat!ng, or was\nnot a regular retailer. Financial standing\nLs absolutely the only condition thnt mil s\nrequire established by persons app'y'ng to\npurchnse lumber, provid'_i of course that\nit Is -understood that mills generally are\noppo-ed to tho shipping of their product\nto the consumer direct, antl endeavor to\nprotect the retail trade by confining shipments to legitimate retailers only.

If the\nformer is- determined In its favor ttie -alter\n\u25a0become* immaterial, therefore I tthaJt fl;*t\ndeal with the former.\nAt the outset I find myself in un unusual\nposition, for- though nominally sitting 09\na Judge of appeal yet th's court hus for\nmany days been discharging the function\nof a'court, of first instance, of a jury,\nin fact, dairlng the hearing before Ua (from\nthe 8th to the fflrd of April, inclusive)\nhavlnt taken a great mass of oral evidence, amounting, when extended, to 673\ntypewrlt#i. pages\nThis from every point of view undesir-\n\u25a0b'e, and I trust not to <be repeated departure from tl'c practice in the case of\nnon-reception of evidence by the trial\njudge, places the parties and ibe court In\na peculiar position for we hnve no finding\nof f\u00bbe_ to assist us because the evidence\nwe took, and whicli is quite inextricably\nInterwoven with that taken at the trial,\nWM_not   be\/ore   the  trial   Judge,   ho   the\nissues are open and must be found by us.\nSuch an unusual state of affairs affects\nttie case seriously because the usual onus\nthrown upon the appellant .to \"show the\njudgment appealed from is wrong,\" Is absent, (see Inverarity v. Hanlngton, April,\n1907, hot yet reported, and the authorities\ntherein cited) and on the other hand the\noriginal onus cast upon the' defendant in\nactions of this peculiar case, to Justify\nlta encroaching workings la as strong as\never  and as  important.\nTho extent to which this latter onus goes\nIn case*, of this nature has been considered In many American oases to whioh we\nhave been referred and which we mu\u00abt\nlook to for guidance, since this difficult\nand distinct brunch of our mining law\ncame direct from that country, and there\nbus ibeen some difference of opinion in ap-\nply'ng it to various circumstances. But In a\ncase case,such as the present I adopt the\nfollowing remarks of Hallett, J., in Lead-\nvU'e Mining Co., v. 'Fitzgerald (1997) 4\nMoit. Min. It., 2S1, cited In Lindl.y on\nMineB, 2nd edition. Vol. 2, Sec. 866 wherein\nthe whole question is ably considered;\n\u2022'Within the lines of each (location the\nowner shall be regarded as having full\nright to alt that may be found, until some\none can show a clear title to It as part of\nsome lode df ore having Its top or apex\nIn other territory. In other words, we may\nsay that there is a, presumption of ownership in every locator as to the territory\ncoveted by his locution; and within his\nown lines he shall be regarded as the owner of ull valuable deposits until some one\ne}ae shall show by preponderance of testimony tliat such depo.lls be'ong to another\nlode having Its to por apex elsewhere.\"\nIn Snyder on Mines flfldi) Vol. 2, Sec, 783.\nIt :_. I think, accurately stated after a\npeVlew of the cases:\n\"While, as we have seen, this extra estate Is b'-ven to every locator of a mlheral\nvein and confirmed by the patent, If he\nobtains one, it ia strictly npo. the oondl-\ntlon that ihe so establish his lines upon\nthe surface as to include whatever portion or his vein he desires to mine out-\naide the vertical planes of hla surface\nground, for however right or wrong the\n\u25a0aw may be, and notwithstanding there Is\na severance of the est ate, as wo dtave seen,\nthe rulo ia so firmly established that the\ncommon law maxim appMes. and that\nagreeably thereto until a .better right U es\ntablishod, he owns the surface Is presumed\nto own all beneath\/'\nAnd In Bar ringer and Adamson Mines\n(1900) the conclusion Is reached (pp. 442-3)\nthat:\n\"The presumption in the first place ls\nthat a'l minerals found within Ms boun-\nfdary planes belong to the owner of the\nclaim. And upon a strange* joftali-6ri\u00a3 ttit\nright to mine inside of the planes rests\nthe burden of proving that lie Is mining\nupon the dip of a vein, whose apex Is outside af the claim, and within a claim belonging to him. That is In order to establish his right and Justify the apparent\ntrespass, he must prove that he is the\nlegal possessor of the vein which he Is flowing. If he fal'e to establish both of\nthese points, he Is the trespasser.\"\nAnd see also p. 458.\nThe circumstances of tho case at bar are\nsuch that as Llndley says, Sec. 866, p. 1592,\n\"It devolves upon the defendant company\nto establish (t) the ex'stence of an apex\nWithin the boundaries; (2) the Identity and\ncontinuity of the vein from Its top or\napex within such boundaries to the point\nof dispute.\"\nIn regard to No, (2) Llndley observes,\nfice. filR, p. U-i\n\"The legal Identity or continuity of a\nvein on Its downward course, as well as\non Its longitudinal course underneath, the\nsurface of adjoining lands, presents at\ntimes the most serious questions encountered ln the administration of the mining\nlaw It Is impossible to prescribe any definite rule as to what degree of continuity\nor Identity in a legal sense the m'ner must\nestablish when he Invades the property\nadjoining the location containing the apex\nof the vein. Each cose presents Its own\npecul'ar features. Reports of adjudicated\ncases rarely present general discussions of\nthis feature of the mining law, nor are tlio\nfacts usual y stated with such' detail a,, to\nenable the practitioner to utilize the case\nas a precedent. The inf nlte variety of\nStructural conditions encountered in the\npractical operation of mines renders it\nhighly Improbable that a case in one locality can be safely re led upon as a precedent In a case arising in another place.\"\nAnd he goes on to discuss certain general principles as illustrated by leading\nmines. At a trial of this kind in the American courts these questions of facts are\nleft to the jury, and the Judge's charge is\nfrequently given in full ln the law reports.\nOur duty therefore, acting as a jury Is to\ncharge ourselves on the acts before us\nand return a verdict thereon. In such\ncircumstances, as T have before stated, I\ndo not think it. ls a good practice or other-\nNELSON GAFE\nnnt Clin\nla mbbmUM.

It requires lust\na little inconvenience, for lt can't be\nbought already prepared. It ls a simple home recipe now being made\nknown ln all the larger cities through\nthe newspapers. It is Intended US\ncheck the many cases of rheumatism,\nkidney and bladder trouble which have\nmade so many cripples and invalids\nand weaklings of some of our brightest\nand strongest people.\nThe druggists here have been notified\nto supply themselves with the Ingredients, and the sufferer will have no\ntrouble to obtain them. The prescription Is as follows Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound\nKargon, one ounce, and Compound\nSyrup of Sarsaparilla three ounces.\nMix by shaking well In a bottle. The\ndose ls one teaspoonful after each meal\nand at bedtime.\nRecent experiments, even In severe\nhospital cases, prove this simple mixture the remedy for Rheumatism, because ot its positive action upon the\nellminatlve tissues ot the kidneys. It\ncompels these most vital organs to\nAlter' from the blood and system the\nwaste impurities and uric acid which\nare the cause ot rheumatism. It cleanses the kidneys, strengthens them and\nremoves quickly such symptoms as\nbackache, blood disorders, bladder\nweakness, frequent urination, painful,\nscalding and discolored urine. It acts\nas a powerful stimulant to the entire\nkidney and bladder structure, puts new\nlite into them and Invigorates tlie entire tract It makes the kidneys clean\nthe blood. The Dandelion will take\ncare ot liver trouble and constipation,\nand ls flue for the stomach.\nAH the ingredients, states a well-\nknown local druggist, are of vegetable\nextraction, making It .a safe and harmless prescription at any time.\nThose who suffer and are accustomed to purchase a bottle of patent medicine should not let a little Inconvenience Interfere with making up this\nprescription. Wherever this becomes\ngenerally known, states a Targe eastern publication, it ruins the sale of\nthe patent medicines and so-called\nrheumatism and kidney cures, which ls\nits best endorsement of virtue.\nMinard's liniment Cures\nCows\nIf you read the ads regu-arly you do not\nsuffer from the \"blues.\" One whose mind\nla alert through analysing opportunities,\nnever worries over-much.\nJ.
