If Mr. Dixon hnd done\nthe latter, bo had placed himself within the pale of the criminal codo and\nhnd rendered himself to a year's Imprisonment.

Starting off at 55%c in New\nYork and 2U U-lGtl. in London, prices\ntouched 77Ur' and 3\"-&d. enrly lu May\nand, following a reactionary movement, these figures were closely approached In December. Compared\nwith the low levels of 1015, there was\nan extreme advance of about 31c and\n15d, respectively, and gains of 24'JJo\nand 13Vsd, wore shown over the quo\ntatiuns current just before the war.\nVarious factors combined to explain\nthe great strength of silver prices Inst\nyear, hut the augmented demand from\nthe mints of the entente powers, coincident with a diminished supply, was\nthe immediate cause. Also, larger\nquantities were consumed hy India,\nwhile the business boom in the United\nStates stimulated buying of tlie white\nmetal for use in the arts. At 7-1,061,-\n075 fine ounces, production In this\ncountry gained about 2,500,000 ounces\nin 1015, but the turbulent conditions in\nMexico naturally curtailed tlie output\nthere and tho world's total was considerably reduced, though exact statistics are not available. Domestic exports during 101U showed a material\nexpansion, being valued at $lil,1,00,000\nfor eleven months, against $46,800,000\ni in   1915,   while  the  imports  were $2S.-\n700.000 as compared with j;ii!,ooo.floo in\nthe early   period.\nThe range of silver prices for the\nlast two years is given herewith.

WILLIAM\nPUGSLEY   MEAN?\nPhillip Snowdon, a tliMer edited\nKngtish Socialist, is carrying on In\nGreat Britain an insidious, disloyal\ncampaign for a premature peace. The\nburden of his appeal is the question:\n\"Why should Great Britain, safe behind Its navy, fight on in order that\nRussia may get Constantinople?\"\nSnowdon is one of those men who II.\nH. Asquith recently said were working\nfor Germany just as effectually as if\npaid for their propaganda.\nHas Snowdon it recruit in Canada in\nthe person of Hon. William Pugsloy,\none of Sir Wilfrid Laurler's chief\nlieutenants in the house?- \u25a0 it looks\nvery much like it.\nOn the order paper he has placed\ntwo questions. He wdnls to know jf\nCanada were consulted regarding the\nentente peace terms which are said\nto provide that Russia is tu get Constantinople and, if so, if it approved of\nthem.\nThe questions give the impression\nthat Mr. Pugsley does not think peace\nterms should include Russian control\nof Constantinople, which will be excellent news for German agents in the\nUnited States to wire to Germany for\ndissemination in Russia as part of\nthe campaign to weaken that country's confidence in its ally, the British Empire. They will further have\nthe -effect of encouraging the disloyalist element In Canada to follow\nSnowdon's criminally shortsighted\nagitation and of cementing tlie support or this disloyal element to Mr.\nPugsley and his friends. Surely he Is\nnot openly playing for tho anti-British, anti-war vote?\nMr.rPugsiey should explain.\nMORE OF THAT \"NO PATRONAGE\"\nPOLICY\nThe working out of the Brewster\n\"no patronage\" pledge is again illustrated by despatches published this\nmorning.\nJohn R.

Ut. linn. ,\\. .1. Balfour refuted\nthe argument which had been advanced thai the expulsion of Turkey\nfrom Europe formed no true part of\nthe general scheme for peace of lb'1\nentente powers. He referred to the\nfact that the traditional policy was lo\nprotect Turkey but that since Turkey\ncame under German domination tlie\nsll nation had completely changed. In\ntho Hands of Germany it had ceased\nto bear lite appearance even of a bulwark oC peaco and was openly uspd\nas an instrument of aggression, Mr.\nBalfour also touched upon tlie massacres In Armenia and Syria, and to\nthe fact that the principle of nationality, as well as the cause of peace, demanded thut Turkey could be no longer\nallowed to rule over alien races.\nIl, should also be pointed out that\nuntil.Turkey has been driven out of\nEurope, Egypt and the toad to Ind''.i\nwould not be safe. Both would be in\nconstant danger If the only brtrr'.er tn\nGerman expansion eustward were little\nSerbia.\nExpulsion of Turkey from Europe is,\nof course, only part of what tho entente allies are fighting tvf\u2014 restitution, reparation and guaraitocs for future security\u2014but It is a vital part and\nInseparable from the whnl***?\nand energy in purchasing the underwater craft from Seattle at an hour\nwhen protection was urgently needed.\nIn this connection some interesting\nsecret financial history Is given in\nthe annual trade review of the Monetary Times. It states that in the he-\nginning of October, 1914, the British\nadmiralty advised the Canadian authorities that It was feared Vancouver\nand Victoria would be bombardod by\nthe Germans. Banks at the Pacific\ncoast were notified and as a result\nimmediately shipped their specie and\nmost of their notes and other securities to Winnipeg for safely. It was\narranged that Vancouver should\nsettle by draft on Winnipeg.\nLater It became known through a\npublic statement by tbe captain of\none of the British cruisers which destroyed Von Spec's fleet off the Falkland Islands and captured a number\nof prisoners that the presenco of the\nsubmarines alone bad been responsible for persuading the German admiral to steam south Instead of north.\nThe latest report is that Harry\nThaw, who attempted to commit suicide, will recover. Thaw always did\ndo the wrong thing.\nThe German raids on shipping in\nthe southern Atlantic, which are\ncrippling South American trade, will\nserve one good purpose if they cause\nthe South American peoples lo awaken\nto the veal nature of the Germany\nwith whom they have had such close\ncommercial relations in the past.\nPhiladelphia newspapers have been\nforced Ity tho high cost of production\nto double their price to 2 cents a\ncopy. Newspapers all over tbe continent are suffering from the same\ndifficulties as those of the Quaker\nCity.\nDr. Pfleger raised a storm of applause in the German reiehstag by\ndeclaring thai Germany should retain\nBelgium and tlie most important part\nof northern France. The incident is\nsignificant. The spirit which brought\nabout this war is still very much alive\nin the German people and it will remain so until their armies have suffered  decisive  defeat.\nThe Brewster government is displaying considerable celerity in dismissing public servants lo make jolts\nfor party workers. Who is it going\nto appoint to the vacant position of\nsheriff of South Kootenay\u2014an organization worker who lias been recommended for reward for party services\nby the Nelson Liberal executive, or\nSergt.

Even\nMexico would have ceased to be a\nproblem. So Jar as she Is concerned\nshe has been subsisting upon a diet\nof moral suasion for somo yenrs past,\nmainly at our expense.\nPersonalities are always to be avoided and they are not fair when applied\nto presidents who, by the nature of\ntheir office, cannot talk back. It is\nnecessary therefore to consider Mr.\nWilson only In the respect that public\noffice always lays every man open to\ncriticism in the discharge of ttio duties\nof that office, In the discharge of these\nduties Mr. Wilson niter his reelection,\ncontinues to exhibit two qunlitics\nwhich nre not helpful to the solution\nof the problems with which any\npresident at any time is confronted\nday by day.\nThese arc personal ambition nnd\ncowardice. Mr. Wilson would like to\nlie handed down In history ns the supreme mediator in tho world war. He\nis no longer actuated by the desire for\nreelection responsible for the Adamson\nact and othor mischievous activities in\nthe past year. But his ambition is insatiable, nnd lie seems to desire to\nmnko a new record, if Mr. Roosevelt\nearned the Nobel Peace prize mainly\nby keeping his mouth shut at tho right\ntime, why should not. Mr. Wilson earn\nit by keeping his month open all the\ntime?\nBut Mr. Wilson's ambition curiously conflicts with a. cowardice in office\nwhich has made him take back practically every conviction he ever expressed. He has been for strict neutrality and the enforcement of pence,\nfor disarmament and preparedness, and\nfor a dozen other incompatible tilings.\nBut he has been prepared to abandon\n-very one of them when the maintenance of his latest conviction would\nmean a fight.\nlie hns now learned that the constitution u\\' the t'nited States, to say\nnothing of Its traditional policy inherited from Qeorge Washington, and\ntlie obligations of the Monroe doctrine,\ndo not permit the president to engage\nthis country In tt .\"league to enforce\npeace,'*' or vaccination, or birth control,\nor prohibition, or anything else.

C. J. Doherty, It is\nknown, has under consideration, and\nnotice bus already been given by\nOliver Wilcox of North Essex, of a\nbill to amend the criminal code with\nthe Idea of limiting the number of nice\ntracks operating In any ono place.\nMr. Wilcox points out that Ihe\nMillar bill provided for one seven\ndays' racing on each track twice a\nyear. The race track men have evaded the spirit of the law by reviving\nold charters and securing several\ntracks in one place, moving the horses\nfrom track to track, and thus providing for almost continuous racing. Mr\nWilcox points out that In the city of\nWindsor the situation Is growing serious. There are now three race tracks\nan application for a fourth has been\nmndo to Toronto, and a fifth\" Is being\norganized. In 11+10. before the Millar\nbill was passed there were 2li dava of\nracing, and tbe Millar 1)111 proposed lo\nremedy tbls situation. Last year In\nWindsor there were 42 days of racing\nand if the two new racing association**\nget their charters Windsor would hav\nno fewer than 70 days racing each\nyear.\nMoney Obtained Astonishing\n\"The amount of money tries*1 track1\nbtko out of the public is astonishing,\"\nRaid Mr. WUcox In discussing his pro\npo<*ed legislation today. \"V am creditably Informed,\" he added, \"that oni\ntrack in Windsor In 11 days mad'\n$126,000, This is bad enough at nn'\ntime, but In war lime is nothing short\nof scandalous, The tracks at Windsor\nare operated by the American Turf\nassociation. They operate in Mexico\nJust over tlie boundary lino, about a\nmile from El Paso, and also In Florida\nIn winter time. For the summer thev\nmove their horses to Windsor. They\nare not allowed to operate at al! in\nsuch one-time famous racing states\nNew York, Michigan, Kentucky and\nVirginia. And yet, now under the\nMillar bill It is proposed to hove not\nless than five tracks in Windsor. The\nsituation Is one which should be end\ned. I propose a very moderate amend\nment which Is designed to carry out\ntho spirit of the Millar bill, namely,\nthat In any city, town or county where\nthere *ls more than one race course,\nor whero there aro two race courses\nloss than 50 miles apart, the race\nmeetings ou all tho tracks shall not\nexceed In number or duration the\nnumber prescribed In the Millar bill,\nwhich was two meets of seven days\neach.'*\nPOLICEMEN\nLETTER CARRIERS\nDRIVERS\nand other workers who mod\nAwe enduring strength, take\nscorn\nEMULSION\nto build up and keep up their\nhealth.

I cannot hand\nmy work over to him any more than\nI can hand over my responsibilities or\nmy gifts, I must do it with these\nhands or these lips which God has\ngiven me. I may do little or I may do\nmuch. That matters not. It must be\nmy own work. And by doing my own\nwork, poor ns it may seem to some, I\nshall better fulfil Qod's end in making\nme what I am, and more truly glorify\nHis name, than if I were either going\noiit of my own sphere to do the work\nof another, or calling another into\nmy sphere to do my proper work for\nme.\u2014.Tohn Ruskin.\nALL   ARE   KIN.\nFirst Church of\nChrist, Scientist\nCorner  Kootenay and  Victoria\nStreets.\nSunday morning service at 11.\nSunday evening service at 7:30.\nWednesday evening meeting at 8.\nReading room In church building\nopen from 3 to 5 daily, except Sunday.\nVisitors   Cordially Welcome.\nEvery Christian man is under obligation to recognize his kindred with\nevery other christian man\u2014his kindred in the deep foundations of his\nspiritual being, which are far deeper\nand ought to be far more operative in\ndrawing together than the superficial\ndifferences of culture or opinion or\nthe like, which may part us.

The lord\nlieutenant and Lieut-Gen. Sir Bryce\nMahon wore nmbng the distinguished\nguests  present.\nIn reply to a toast Mr. Massoy said\nhe was glad to find that Ireland, his\nnative country, was prosperous. There\nwas a parallel between Ireland and\nNew Zealand In the matter of agricultural prosperity, and in his adopted\ncountry, thnt prosperity, he was pleased to say, depended upon tho energy.\nIndustry and enterprise of Its settlers\n-Its farmers\u2014who, tn a large extent,\nhailed from Ireland. Irelnnd had taken a somewhat prominent part In the\npublic affairs of N>w Zealand\u2014Its\npublic affairs both legislative and nd-\nminlstrative. Lord iMunkelt. an Irishman, Who was well known in Dublin,\nwns governor of New Zealand a few\nyenrs a*0, and at that time the speaker nf the legislative council was nn\nIrishman, the speaker of the house of\nrepresentatives was nn Irishman, and\nthe leader of the opposition was an\nIrishmnn. The author of their education system, which hart stood the test\nfor 40 years, was n graduate- of Trinity college, and probably one nf the\nbest speakers who ever presided over\ntlie legislative assembly, was nn Irishman\u2014Sir Maurice O'Rourke. Irishmen, he went on, had done credit to\ntheir native land in the war. and he\nhoped they would come in increased\nnumbers, so as to nut a victorious end\nid the struggle, They should all lie\ncareful that reinforcements should he\nkept up. He had not the slightest\ndoubt about Hip result of the war. Rut\nIf they did not do their duty in the\nmatter of reinforcements a\u00abd supnlles.\nthe end would be unduly delayed. It\nwas the duty of every citizen of tho\nEmpire, no matter where he was located\u2014to do everything In his power\nto bring the war lo a satisfactory and\ndefinite conclusion.\nNew Zealand, out of a population of\nl.tOO.QOO. had sent out 75,000 soldiers\nto assist the Empire In her struggle:\nthe expenditure of the colony was over\na million a month in connection with\nthe war. The people of New Zealnnd\nwere noxious, as soon as it could he\narranged, that there should bo a closer union between them and tho centre\nof the Empire. Ho thought they wore\nentitled to It. Thoy wore anxious to\nwet nwoy from the relations which\nthoy bad with Germany prior to the\nwar, and they felt that It should not\nbo necessary to go outside the Empire\nlo got all the things that they required.\nEvery ship sunk by the Germans, every\ncrime committed, should he a Htronger\nreason for golnif on until il. was made\nimpossible for Europe to experience a\nrepetition of this war for centuries to\ncome.\nAs a race we are said to be addicted\nto eating of hot breads.. But it is\ndoubtful If there Is anything heavier\nand more indigestible in the cook's list\nof hot breads than English muffins,\nSome of the Viennese breakfast breads\ntoo, are a bit heavy, and probably ev\nery country of Europe would havo to\nplead guilty ut the bar if accused of\nproducing breakfast breads that defy  tho requirements of .digestibility.\nWhatever the real situation with regard to hot breads may be, the fact remains that good muffins or other hot\nbreads makes breakfast worth the eating. And the Canadian cook who has\nmastered the art of muffin making\nmay he counted successful.\nThore are two tests to put to breakfast broadH. One is put by the cook,\nand that has to do with the tlmo and\ntrouble required In tholr preparation.\nTho other has to do with flavor and\ntexture, and that comes from those\nwho oat thom.\nAlways let breakfast breads cool\nslightly on a cloth or wire rack before\nsending to tho table. They will then\nbo moro .digestible and more easily\nhandled than If sent to the table literally piping hot.\nHeat all muffin tins before putting,\nin tho muffin mixture. The muffins;\nrise more thoroughly and more quick-1\nly when put Into hot tins. Remember,\ntoo, that most muffins need a quick\noven. Dopove.rs need a quick oven, but\nthoy also need long and thorough cooking, and some popover cooks let them\nstay In the oven 40 minutes.\nI'opovers\u2014I'opovers, robbers* caves,\nor wheat puffs, as they are variously\ncalled, are not difficult to make. The\nIngredients needed are two unbeaten\neggs, two cupfnls of milk and two cup-\nfuls of flour, with a quarter of .a teaspoon of salt. Ileal all thoroughly to\n(father until not a lump remains, and\nthen pour the mixture into very hot\nmuffin puns, well greased, filling them\nabout half full. Cook thoroughly until one broken open is hollow inside\nand shows a firm wall or crust.\nEmergency Biscuit\u2014Mnko a good\nbaking powder biscuit dough and drop\nit, by spoonfuls, into well-greased muffin pans. These biscuits nre crusty\nlittle things nnd especially delicious if\nyou have tho continental habit of serving honey or Jam at breakfast. A good\nrule for the dough is this: Mix six\neven teaspoonfuls of baking powder\nand one of salt with throe, cupfnls of\nflour. .Sift all together three times and\n[\u25a0^hen chop in, with a silver knife, six\ntnblesponnfuls of butter, lord or some\nother shortening agents. Mix together quickly with a knife, and add a cupful of cold water. Mix lightly and then\nput In a greased pan with n spoon.\nRice Mufffns\u2014Rice muffins are\nmnde with one cupful of boiled ri*'c,\ntwo eggs. t\\v<y cups of flour, n table-\nspoonful of melted butter, three cups\nof milk and salt to taste.

The tilt is no longer with\nus. We did not accept this fact at\nits start with any degree of faith at\nits lasting, but we now realize that it\nhas gained a strong grip and Intends\nto dominate all other fashions in millinery.\nNot only is the straight line across\ntlie forehead, but it touches the eyebrows and fashion demands that it\ndocs not dip down at the back, but\nmust keep In a straight line around\nthe head.\nThis is a difficult trick to accomplish. It is very hard to keep a Rus7\nslan turban, for instance, from dipping\ndown at the hack, unless one keeps a\nknot of hair there to keep it straight.\nWith all other shapes the work of\nkeeping the hat straight Is not so difficult; the new ones have brims that\nturn up and not down, and the headband is so smalt, no matter how widely\nthe hat flares above it, that It has a\ntendency to slip down to the nape of\ntbe neck.\nIt is suggested by experts that, instead of the tight, French twist, the\nhair will soon be arranged broadly\nncross the back in wnves, if the hats\ncontinue to show so much nf it. The\nl-'rench twist Is attractive for the nf-\nternoon, but the meagre beginnings of\nit. just above the nape of the neck, nre\nnot very attractive showing for three\ninches beneath the hat.\nClean, bright utensils mean clean appetizing food\u2014-use\nOld Dutch\nChamberlainV\nCojttgH Remedy\n* ALWAYS fiELIEVES* m\nAnd U PLEASANT sod SAFE.\nly.\nRye Gems\u2014Rye Is not in as general\nuse as corn anil wheat and Graham\n'flour.

So\nunquestionable has it become, that,\nshould the conference, on electoral reform fall In recommending, some practical scheme for the franchise Including both men and women, a serious\nsituation would threaten the country.\nThe object of the memorandum is to\nlay facts so clearly before the public\nas to avert this situation by prompting\na timely recognition of the urgency of\na franchise reform which will admit\nwomen as well as men to citizenship.\nThe government, the memorandum\npoints out, has given certain pledge,\nto labor which will have to be redeem\ned; but to find a way of redeeming\nthese pledges without injustice to women and without economic loss to the\ncountry will be difficult. If parliament\nattempts to solve this problem while\nwomen are still disfranchised, It will\nlay itself open tn the charge of protecting Interests of voters at tho expense\nof those who are not voters. There\ncan be no doubt of the readiness of\nwomen to recognize tho paramount\nclaim of those who have given un their\npositions in industry to answer the call\nof nrms. . . . with their quickened\nand deepened sense of citizenship they\nare not willing that their interests\nshould bo bargained away by a parliament over which they have no control, or that they should be treated as\na football in a gamo hetween capital\nnnd tabor with tbe government acting\nns umpire.\nIt would be a pity in a survey of the\ndetnlls sot forth in this memorandum.\nengrossing as thoy aro, to fall to grasp\ntbo extraordinary significance of tho\nrevolution In the economic and soclnt\nltfe of the country which it denotes.\nThe war has swept away the four main\ncauses which hindered women from\ntaking their due place In the industrial\nlife of the country: (a) The tradition\nthat restricted woman's \"place to the\nhome,\" (b) the belief that women, with\ncertain exceptions, were Incapable of\nnny but tho lightest form of work, fc)\ntack of training which stood in the\nway of skilled employment, (d) the opposition of trade unions. As to this\nlast deterrnnt to woman's work, it Is\nnot yet wholly destroyed, though, owing to the country's need, the nntago-\nhlsm of trnde unions has heen allayed.\nBefore the war, as Is shown by the\nmemorandum, though women wero\npractically excluded from nearly all\nskilled trades, with tho exception of\nthose regarded as peculiarly women's\nprovince, this exclusion was never legalized and was carried out without\nconflict between either men or women\nor men and employers. Rut this tacit\nacceptance belongs to the pre-war period. Conditions have so radically\nchanged that such a solution, if it can\nbe termed one, can no longer he accepted,\nEven more unacceptable, because\nfurther removed from justice, Is the\nundertaking given by the government\nto trade unions that women shall he\nturned out at the end of the vttit Such\na.faot, states the metnorandum, is a\nwholly now oho in\" English Industrial\nhistpry. Both employers find trade unions, it goes on, will have political\nmenus bf Influencing legislation, but\nremain voteless, possess no such Influence. 'And It must not be forgotten\nthnt any legislation directly bearing on\nthe position of those women who are\nnow doing skilled work or other work\nwhich is regarded as specially men's\nwork, must affect tbe whole of the 6,-\n000,000 women employed, insofar ns it\nnarrows or widens the possibilities of\nemployment open to women, and also\nInsofar as It affects the question of\nwage rates. The problem, therefore,\nIs not confined to the reinstatement of\nmen in positions that during the wnr\nhave been filled by women, but extends to the whole question of the status of women in the economic life of\nthe nation, and the parliamentary solution of this problem calls for the direct represcntution of the Interests of\nwomen.\nThe board of trade statistics quoted\nby tho national union's memorandum\nsho wthe number of women employed\non commercial and industrial work\n(excluding outworkers and domestic\nservants) to have increased during the\nlast two years by StiG.OOO, the total In\nJuly lOlfi being approximately 4,080,000\nOf this number 710,000 are reported by\nemployers ns directly replacing men or ,\ndoing work formerly regarded as men's\nwork. With regard to the testimonies\nof efficiency in skilled work, many nf\nwhich are quoted in tho memorandum,\nIt Is to be noted that in most cases the\nindustrial training received by the women concerned has been a very short\none, as compared with the men, by\nwhoso standard they are judged. The\nopinion of a number of public men as\nto the effect of the adoption of woman suffrage on the stales which they\nrepresent is also given at the close of\nthe memorandum. Tho most remarkable Of theso testimonies is that of the\nAnstrllnn senate embodied in n resolution passed on Nov. 17, RI10, It said:\n\"That this senate Is of the opinion thnt\nthe extension of the suffrage to the\nwomen of Australia for stntes and the\ncommonwealth parliaments has had\ntho most beneficial results. It has led\nto the more orderly condiu-l of election,\nand at the last federal election the women's vote in a majority of the states\nshowed a greater proportionate increase than that cast by men. It has\ngiven a greater prominence to legislation particularly affecting women and\nChildren, although the women have not\ntaken up such questions to the exclusion of others of wider significance. In\nmatters of defense and imperial concern they have proved themselves as\nfar seeing and discriminating as men.\nBecause the reform hns brought nothing but good, though disaster was\nfreely prophesied, we respectfully urge\nthat all nations enjoying representative government would be well advised\nin granting voles to women.\nBLOUSE' NOTES      '   '\nMany little hew\"ideusarc' being In-1\ntroduced in the blouses of the season.|\nThe larger \u2022sailor collar and the har-\"\nrow deep square collar are still muchl\nused, but a-bib-effect has. been addedf\nto the early spring models.

It is consequently! able to provide a great export market for a pre-eminently industrial country such as Great Britain;\nand at the same time constitutes an\nadmirable sphere for the Investing of\ncapital for the development of local\nIndustries. Italy Is very rich in every :\nkind of agricultural and natural product, and can therefore, become an Inexhaustible source of raw materials\nfor British Industry and trade. Tho\nItalian colonies in the Mediterranean\nand the Indian ocean have an area of\nsome 766,000 square miles. These can\nlikewise become an immense and excellent outlet for English manufactures\nand capital, and on the other hand, for\nIhe exportation of raw matorials to\nEngland, to the mutual advantage of\nthe maritime trade between tbe two\ncountries. Long before the outbreak\nof tho war Germany had realized the\nimportance of the Italian market and\nhad established there, for her own advantage, very considerable banking\nand commercial interests.\nThe Economy of the Best\nis realized by the\nmillions\nand enjoy\nwho\nuse\nThe\nOriginal\nand Genuine\nWorcestershire\nSauce.\nIt goes further and adds more to the\nzest and flavor of food than any of its\nmany imitators.\nSold by Grocers Everywhere.\nWrite for our Kitchen Booklet to H.
