SAYS HOT WATER
WASHES POIS0NS
FROM THE LIVER
Everyone should drink hot water
with phosphate In It,
before breakfast.

To feel as fine as the proverbial
fiddle, we must keep the liver washed
clean, almost every morning, to pre-
vent its sponge-like pores from clog
ging with indigestible material. sour
bile and poisonous toxins, says not
ed physician.
If you get headaches, it's your liver
If you catch cold easily, it's your liver.
II you wake up with bad taste. furr-
ed tongue, nasty breath or stomach
becomes rancid, it's your liver. Sal
low skin, muddy complexion, watery
eyes all denote liver uncleanliness.
Your liver is the most important also
the most abused and neglected organ
of the body. Few know its function
or how to release the damned up body
waste, bile and toxins.
Every man and woman, sick or
well, should drink each morning be-
fore breakfast, a glass of hot water
with q teaspoonful of limestone phos-
plate in it, to wash from the liver and
bowels the previous days indigestible
material, the poisons, sour bile and
toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening
and freshening the entire alimentary
canal before putting more food into
the stomach.
Limestone phosphate is inexpen-
sive;> any pharmacist will sell you a
quarter pound, which is sufficient
for demonstration of how hot water
and limestone phosphate cleans, slim
ulates and freshens the liver, keeping
you reeling fit day in and day out.

probably, most of all, to the fact
that l have been a church member for
eighty years. AS / look back l can
see how my having become a Chris

were being formed, had great deal
to do with my preservation of my body

THE JAPANESE MENACE.

Senator Phelan has brought to light
the fact that a Japanese publicity man
an agent of Japan in this country
WAS Joint writer of bill introduced in
tho senate for the regulation of i'm
migration. The bill, as it appeared
in the senate, may not be the same in
verbiage, but it is the same in purpose
According to the late Colonel Roose-
welt, we had a treaty with Japan
which permitted exclusion of her cit
liens from this country, But as con-
cesson to Japanese pride that treaty
was repealed and a "gentlemens
agreement" whereby Japan under
took to keep her, subjects from
emigrating to this country, was sub
stituted. F-.
Therein, Japan certainly slipped one
over on us. Since that time we have
been entirely dependent upon Japan's
good faith. Japan asserts that she
has kept the faith in spirit and let
ter, but Senator Phelan says she
hasn't.
In the new bill Japanese immigra-
ton is placed on the same basis with
the immigration from other coun-
tries-five per cent of the number OF
Japanese now in this country may be
admitted annual. Thus. without TAX
ing into consideration the increase due
to birth rate. the population of Jap
anese in America would be doubled IN
twenty years.
This is a condition with this coun-
try will not permit. even If President
Wilson favored at the peace confer.
ence the admission of Japanese tC
this country on exactly the same foot
ing as we admit Canadians.

IN BAD WITH THE WITNESS.
Judge.


There is a lawyer in Toledo, Ohio,
who finds zest in browbeating wit
nesses for the opposition. He rains
insinuations against the integrity of
the persons he cross-eXamines. and
unnerves them. And in at least one
court (where the Judge is an old col
league of his), Mr.. Browbeater gets
away with his deadly work But some
times he slips. even in that favorable
court. For instance:
An old negro Whitewater sat
trembling before him in the witness
chair.
You are Sam Harrison?" demand
ed the attorney.
Yes, sab"
"And you are the Sam Harrison who
was sentenced to robbery"
mo, sah,, Aim not that Harrison
you are perhaps the Harrison who
was sentenced to two years imprison-
ment for grand larceny"
mo. sab. Aim not that Harrison,
either"
Were you ever in PRISON."
Eyes, sad"
"How long were you in there?"
"A whole afternoon"
."And for what?"
''Ah was whitwashin' a cell for a
lawyer who had been locked up for
beatin' his clients"

Gin the Days News"

Sir Herbert Ames, who has accepted
the position of financial director of
the permanent secretariat of the
League of Nations at Geneva. is a
leading citizen of Montreal. who has
devoted much study and time to civic
welfare movements. He was born in
Canada, of Massachusetts and New
York stock, and received his education
at Amherst college. At the outbreak
of the great war he was asked by the
governor general of Canada to assume
the position of honorary secretary OF
the National Canadian Patriotic fund,
which provides for the wives and de-
pendent relatives of soldiers. The
marked success attending this organ
ization was largely due to his initia-
tive efforts, and in 1915 Mr.. Ames had
conferred upon him the honor of
knighthood by the kind. Sir Herber,
has travelled extensively over the
world, and has given much time and
attention to the discussion of trade
questions, tariffs and treaties with
other countries.

MUST BE LEVEL HEADED NOW.

The multitude of difficulties with
which the country is struggling must
be dealt with collectively as well as
separately They are all related in
some degree. But it will require time
and patience, as well as intelligence,
to deal with them in a way to reach
permanent remedies, Nearly every
condition, which evokes complaint is
the result of other conditions.
Not only that. but there is no class
or group trade or organization, that
is not embarrassed by the high cost
of living and other temporary coAdi-
tons incident to the war and to the
reimbursement now in progress.
1t is no time for any class or group
to be giving ultimatums TO the public
or to the public's government,
! threatening strikes or demanding con-
cessions or policies that affect the
whole nation. That is the last word
in folly.
The adjustment of prices, salaries,
wages and all other elements and Incl
dents affecting transportation must
come, but ii must come in connection
with similar adjustments in produc-
tive lines, and with the rights of the
ultimate consumer always fairly con-
sidered.
Moreover, all demands which affect
the public or government must be
subjected to intelligent and fair in
vestigation, which will accord full
consideration to every other interest
affected. 1t is not possible to grant
the arbitrary demands of any group
Independent of it's relation to other
groups. All must be considered alike.
No group is entitled to considera-
ton that other groups may not re-
ceive, and any government that would
countenance such special treatment or
privileges not only could not long
survive, but it would not deserve to
survive
The useful activities of a nation are
all inter-related, r-dependent and
essential to each other. 1t is proper
for each individual. group or interest
to seek justice-not only proper. but
imperative. But its claims must be
subjected to fair test in considera-
ton with the interests of the whole
mass. Otherwise it is not seeking
Justice but an arbitrary advantage
| thot will inyariahiv fail
Ultimatums are dangerous and
usually indicative of poor leadership,
and when they are handed to the
sovereign power of the people as rep
resented in their government they in
vite the destruction of those who is
sue the challenge.

THE REAL PROBLEM.

We can get back TO normal condl-
lions, no doubt. but if we do so there
must be pulling together instead OF
milling against each other. What we
now witness is a struggle of various
groups to raise the price of what they
produce. II is a feverish. unnatural
struggle. which involves as q danger
Gus by-product the cutting down OF
production.
Also this hot race Is to the strong
10 those groups that are well organ
lied or hold strategic positions In
kew Industries. They can force higher
wages and higher prices.
But what of the weaker groups, the
unorganized workers, the clerks ana
salaried people, these and the ill-paid
professions? How are they to Keep
themselves on a parity with the ad-
vances forced, now here, now there,
by the strong groups? .....
Many widow who has prudentiy
nut what her husband left her from
his life insurance in safe. but low
interest bearing securities now finds
herself in trouble. Because she must
help pay the higher cost of living
forced upon her in order to proVlde
incomes for the stronger groups her
income will purchase little more than
half what it would buy of the neces-
sites of life IN 1913.
The saving bank account may be OF
the same size and the interest the
same, but the income from it is worth
little more than one-half as much as
formerly. Even the good reliable
farm mortgage isn't worth so much
even though the farm itself has
doubled in value.
There is but one remedy; Greater
production. Our social machine IS a
highly complex affair. and all OF Its
parts must work in harmony. and to
the limit of efficiency, so far as human
intelligence can make it do so, II we
are to avoid a blow-up before great
while.

going to give the hundreds Of thou
sands of private soldierswho did their
duty as Loyalty as he. and who suffer-
ed personal discomforts and perils
that his rank permitted him to avoid?
1t is not surprising that irritation
is being expressed The cost of the
war has been heavy enough to British
taxpayers, and they are in no temper
to acduiesce in such needless largess
as this-needless, because the generals
ana admirals who are thus rewarded
are already provided with large
salaries and will in the future also
get substantial pensions.
The granting of rewards on such a
scale is repugnant to the democratic
spirit. Popular acclaim and the sat
isfaction of having done their duty
should be recompense enough. Amer
lea is grateful to its generals. but ii
has not been thought necessary to
give them half million or so apiece.
France is letting Foch. Joffre and
Petain worry along on moderate
salaries.
If the temper Of the people OF
Canada, who recently through their
parliament asked the sovereignty to
confer no more titles on Canadians,
is an index, the people of the British
empire are becoming tired of the
creation Of new peerages. Making
Haig an earl will add nothing to his
popularity. The democratic leaven is
working.

A BRITISH BLUNDER.

In comforting upon little group
of its military and naval command
ers the titles of earl, viscount and
baronet besides giving them three
million dollars-half a million each to
Haig and Beatty--the British govern
ment was ill-advised. With England
seething with unrest, manifested in
strikes and threats of strikes for
higher wages and better living condi-
tons, 1t would have been the part
of wisdom to POSTPONE the granting
of awards or to have attempted to
collect the gifts by public subscrip-
ton. If the government can afford
to give half a million to Haig, the
