"Castoria is the best remedy for children Of
which am acquainted. 1 hope the day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the real

destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their Threats, thereby sending

Noble Baldwin,: The committee al
lowed an ample number of men with
ample wages, and have left the sher-
ifs to apportion the pay of the police.
In regard to captains of police, every
district has such an officer. The
amount of duty should regulate the
salary. The native members favor
appOrtioning, because the Marshal has
abused his privileges in regard to the
detective police fund. The committee
has recommended lump sum for de
tective service. 1t would do away
with that obstruction. He favored
voting the pay of police in lump
/ sum, for if not the House will be six
/ weeks longer in the consideration of
/ these items alone. If the House al
! lowed this, then il must apportion the
/ salaries of those in the employ of the
Board of Education. He thought il
was all boys play.
/ Rep. Nawahi stated that he wanted
to see the salaries in the police force
apportioned from the highest TO the
| lowest officer, so as not TO allow any
room for mouse to hide. The House
has the right to apportion the salaries
of district judges, why can't the
House do the same with the pay OF
police. At S:5S P. NJ. he moved that
the committee rise. Carried.
The report of the committe wa:
adopted.

TRADEMARK CASES
Hiram Walker & Sons, Of Canada, Get an
Injunction Against Chicago House.

case recently heard before Judge
Gresham, OF the United States Circuit
Court for the First District of Michigan,
goes to show that persons who use
whisky must be on the alert if they
would escape being imposed upon.
The plaintiffs are Hiram Walker &
Sons, Limited, of Walkerville, Canada,
distillers and bottlers of whisky known
as Canadian Club" Under the Cana
dian excise regulations whisky may re-
main in bond indefinitely, and the dis
tiller may, if he so wishes, bottle it while
still in the custody of the government
officers, and thereby obtain an excise
certificate of the age and genuineness of
the liquor IN the form of an official stamp
over the cork of each bottle. This guar
antee is naturally very much priced by
the distilIers who have the old whisky to
secure it, and all whisky bottled by the
Walkerville establishment is so guaran-
teed.
A Chicago firm have put up a spirit
which they call Montreal Club" al
legged to be made by the Montreal Dis
tiliing Co.," which was shown to have
no existence. In all but name. the
Walker labels were closely initiated, as
was also the official stamp of the Cana
dian excise. The proceedings were rem
dered somewhat novel by the appear
ance OF Mr.. z. A. Lash, Q. c., of Toronto
on behalf of the Dominion government,
to support the application of the plain
tiffs to restrain defendants from further
use of the counterfeit certificate. The
defendants were. promptly enjoined from
continuing to infringe upon plaintiffs
trademark or labels, or to copy the Do
mlnlon excise stamp.
A significant feature of the case was
the production by the defendants OF aft
davits by several liquor dealers of Chi
cage, who could hardly be ignorant OF
the character of the goods in question.
1t would appear that the consumer
must depend upon his own care and
judgment for immunity from such at
tempts to acknowledgements Wine and

notes early in the morI ing as they
lie awake, talking and planning what
they will do and DO in the future that
lies before them. NJ. Renart thinks he
would like to know how many years
will be given him in which to enjoy life,
so he implores the cuckoo to tell him.
Cuckoo, tell me truth, how many years
have to live? wish very much to
know, cuckoo" The cuckoo answered
promptly thirteen times. Then M.
Renart turns to his wife and embraces
her. "Did you hear?" he asks. Sir"
