FOUNDED IN HONOUR.

No doubt you have seen in the
papers such announcements as
this concerning some medicine or
other: elf. on trial. you write
chat this medicine has done you
no good we will refund your
money."-Now, we have never
had reason to speak in that way
concerning the remedy named in
this article. In a trade extern
ding throughout the world, no.
body has ever complained that
our medicine has failed, or asked
for the return of his money. The
public never grumbles at hon.
estly and skillfully made bread,
or at medicine which really
and actually does what it was
made to do. The foundations of
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
are laid in sincerity and honour,
the knowledge of which on the
part of the people explains its
popularity and success. There is
nothing to disguise or conceal.
It was not dreamed out, or dis
covered by accident; it was stu
died out, on the solid principles
of applied medical science. It is
paiatable as honey and contains
all the nutritive and curative
properties of Pure Cod Liver
Oil. extracted by us from fresh
cod livers, combined with the
Compound Syrup of Hypophos-
phites and the Extracts of Malt
and Wild Cherry. This remedy
is praised by all who have en-
ployed it in any CT the diseases
it is recommended to relieve and
cure, and is effective from the
first dose. In Anemia, Scrofula,
Nervous and General Debility,
Influenza, La Grippe, and Throat
and Lung Troubles, it is a spe-
cific. DR.. Thos. Hunt Stucky
says: "The continued use of it
in my practice, convinces me
that it is the most palatable>
least nauseating, and best prep
aration now on the market"
You can take it with the assur-
ance of getting well. One bottle
proves its intrinsic value. You
cannot be disappointed in it."

TESTIMONY
On SAKE
Commissioner Mailing
Finishes Taking
Dispositions.

The taking of dispositions in behalf of
! the appellee in the sake cases was con-
cluded by United States District Court
Commissioner Mailing yesterday. A
japanese witness called to testify as
an expert as to whether sake was more
like wine than beer, or more like one
wine than it was like another was
put through his PAGES and incidentally
put away a lot of booze at the behest
of United States Attorney Leavett.
of Washington. who is looking out for
the governments interest in the case.
The japanese was game. He went
from port to sherry, and from sherry
to claret, and back to sake, and
through it all. for long time and in
many tests, he picked out the sake
every time by the taste and said shat
it was like neither port, nor sherry, nor
claret. and that any of these was more
like any other than either was ike
sake.
This sort of thing was kept UP. Mr..
Leavett changing and shifting the
glasses again and again as if trying
TO catch the witness, until at last the
japanese threw up his hands and said
he could not taste anything any more
unless he were permitted to go for a |
short time and have a drink of water. |
After this incident, Thos. McTighc |
was called and said that he did not |
and would not drink sake. DR.. F. 3. |
Humphris, on the invitation of Attor- |
ney Tom Fitch. took a jolt of sake and |
was asked to say how it impressed him. |
The doctor said it did not taste like |
any wine with which he was acquaint-
ed.
Manager Hertsche of the Moana said
that sake was not like any wine with
which he was acquainted, and all the
testimony of the session went the same
way.
The dispositions will be sent on to
and the question of the
of duties will be fought cut
there. A great many local importe. S
are interested in the matter, as the
question is whether sake shall be class
ed for duty purposes as beer or a
vine.

LOVE DEAD TWO
YEARS; DIVORCE
French Commission Prepares Unique
: Grounds for Legal

SCPabdkISIs
Paris, June 12.-The marriage re-
form commission, which a been
working on a project of reforming the
marriage and divorce code, now, aft
er making o between married cou-
pies obligatory, reached the question
Of divorce and worked out a scheme
of reforms.
The starting point in the divorce re-
form is the equality. of the sexes in
the dissolution Of the marriage tie.
While, according to present French
laws. misconduct Of the wife is suf1-
Gent grounds for G..vorce,s il. is no so
in the case Of the husband. The reform
code calls for absolute equality in this
matter.
Divorces. according to the new
project. may be obtained not only on
mutual agreement of incompatibility.
but also on a petition from either side.
If love has ceased on one side. the COM
mission says. that side has a right to
petition for divorce. But the divorce
will not be granted Immediately. The
proposed code provides tina the cou-
pie should continue to live together
for two years from date of the first
petition, during which time the petit
toner must his or her request
for divorce every six months, to make
sure that the original petition was not
the result of a moEnentary whim.
Habitual drunkenness will also be in
cluded among the sufficient grounds
for divorce.
