The Use Of FIavOrings Deter
mines Difference In Brands

The Encyclopaedia Britannica says
about the manufacture of smoking to-
bacco: s.. =. on the Continent and in
America, certain sauces are employed
>. the use OF the sauces is to improve
the favour and burning qualities Of the

enjoyment depends as much upon the
flavoring used as upon the tobacco.
Your nose is a sure guide in the mat
ter of fiavorings. Try this simple test
with several tobacco brands: pour some
tobacco into your palm, rub briskly,
and smell. You will notice a distinct
difference in the fragrance Of every
brand. The tobacco that smells best to
you viii smoke best in your pipe, You
can rest assured.

JOIN COVENANT AND
TREATY, SAYS CECIL
5RIToNs WOULD INCLUDE THE
LEAGUE PACT IN PRELIMIN-
AIRY PEACE AGREEMENT.
Statement Issued Prior to Dinner
Given in Honor Of President
Wilson, Following Conference
With British Premier.

Paris.--Lord Robert Cecil, after a
conference with Premier Lloyd George,
declared Tuesday night in behalf Of
the British delegation that the league
OF nations covenant, in the opinion OF
the delegation, should be Incorporated
in the preliminary peace treaty.
President Wilson dined Tuesday
might with Lord Robert Cecil, the
British league of nations delegate. and
Colonel House.
Before the dinner Lord Robert re-
ceived the British and American cor
respondents and announced that 1T was
the opinion of the British delegates
that the league of nations covenant
should be Incorporated in the prelfm-
mary peace treaty with Germany.
Lord Robert had previously expressed
this as his personal opinion, but his
announcement Tuesday was after he
had conferred with Premier Lloyd
George and was made in behalf of the
British delegation.
Asked If the covenant might provide
for race equality, Lord Robert said
that this could not be done without
Interfering with the internal affairs
of various nations, which would VIC
late the principles of the league.
Regarding the voluntary withdrawal
of any nation from the league, Lord
Robert pointed out that there was
much to be said ON both sides of the
question.
The Notifications on the island of
Helgoland, Germany's formidable base
in the North sea, must be dismantled.
This decision was reached Tuesday
by the supreme war council.
1t was decided also that the Kiel
canal should be internationalized and
made available to the ships of all ma
lions on even terms. Tolls will be
collected to pay for the maintenance
Of the canal. Germany probably will
retain sovereignty of the waterway.
