SPRING ADVICE.
Some Timely Hints for All Who Are
Going Through This Trying Sea-

Some Timely Hints for All Who Are
Going Through This Trying Sea-
sen.
From the Scientific Magazine.
Be careful of your diet You do not need
heavy food such as you require during the
winter.
Spring may be beautiful but it is treacher-
Gus. Do not let it deceive you into cold,
a fever, malaria or pneumonia.
Do not throw off your winter aannels too
early. 1t is better to suffer little incon-
venience than to take cold.
If you feel tired, feverish or overheated, do
not rush off and take Spring medicines. y
Cool yourself down and in this way help your
system and purify your blood.
If you feel hot and thirsty, do not drink
large quantities of water or other long
drinks. 1t is much better to take little pure
whiskey and water, which will quench the
thirst tone the system, and fortify against
disease.
Remember that only pure whiskey should
ever be taken into the system, and that the
leading chemists and scientists of the pres
ent day unite in declaring that Duffys Pure
Malt is absolutely the purest and best.
DO not permit any druggist or grocer to
persuade you TO take something else Bear
In mind that this is a medicinal whiskey and
far superior for this reason, while ii costs
more.
II YOU use proper care and follow the ad-
vice above given, you may hope TO go through
the spring. in good shape.

was discussed, and it was decided to
canvass the territory tributary to Bry-

agreed to buy no more butter from
farmers living within a radius of eight

tire refutation. Editors write savagely-
false articles, with the official statistics
by their side which utterly contradict
all that they say.
The whole business is not discussion,
not an argument. but vicious effort to
prejudice the public mind against PEN
sioners and pensions, by the vehement
assertion of misleading statistics and
downright lies.
There is not statement adverse to
the pensioners which is now current

RUssTA'S GRAB.

The latest decisive step in the Asiatic
grab-game has been the virtual seizure
Of the Hermit Kingdom of Korea
by the Russians. This gives Russia o
very valuable base for future opera
tons She ha. so far been greatly ham
pered by the lack of any base Of sup
plies on the Pacific. Her territory
there is an almost unbroken wilderness,
with her only acknowledgements
locked by ice for five months in the
year. Now she comes into possession of
a great peninsula, about the size of
Italy, and lying in the same latitude,
and with population Of about 10000
900. This joins on to her Siberian posses
sions, and will furnish her all the har-
bors, food supplies and depots she needs.
She has shown marvellous capacity for
dealing with and assimilating Asiatic
peoples of the character of the Koreans,
and there is no doubt that if she is not
interfered with she will in a few years
make Korea as thoroughly portion of
=" Holy Russia as she has made of
Turkestan and Circassia. The burning
question is whether she will be intsr-
fered with. England has been looking
with envious eyes upon Korea, and
English officials who have been manag-
ing the Kingdoms revenues have
been displaced by Russian. Japan also
believes that Korea is her rightful con-
quest, and the possession of the peninsula
necessary to her strategic position and to
the extension of her trade and COM
merce. England is being reused by
Russia's bold act, and complications that
may end in a trial of strength seem
likely. 1}}

TEE KEW CRUSADE

The new crusade against pensions
which is now engrossing large portion
of tie space Of certain papers is merely
the periodical recrudescence of the old
time bitter assaults. 1t contains abso-
lutely nothing new as to facts. The
old. timeworn, acknowledgement
lies are reVamped, furnished up, and
made to do duty as facts.
There are always plenty of men viii
ling 10 listen TO and believe these lies
r1s- "a truth. They are:
constructed rebels, who

re too cowardly or selfish
army, and therefore hated

3. The selfish, grasping, money-grab-
bers Of the East, who writhe over the
spectacle Of the peoples money being
distributed again directly TO the people.
4. The lower and baser portion of the
alien element, who have come into the
country since the var, who have no
conception what it cost TO save this
country, and make it what it is, AID who
see in tie veterans the representatives OF
the hated militarism of Europe.
1t is hopeless task to attempt to re-

are now deluged. To show the truth
