What about the soldiers who are in the fighting line here at iome--the soldiers of toil? In this war the sol- | diers may be. divided into two class-] es*--the soldiers who dare and' the The soldiers who dare are over in France--their qual- ity is courage. The soldiers who bear are here in Canada--their qual- ity is fortitude. In peace we would say that one quality was as good as another, but war may have given them different values. At all events the soldiers who bear have a tough fight. It is they who must bear the assaults of the food. exploiters. It is they who realize that the high cost of living and giving their families enough to eat is as bitter a struggle as anything that goes on in Europe. For the soldiers of toil, the sol- diers who stay at horthe and bear the chief burden of war by way of a forty per cent. tariff on the neces- saries of life, for the patient masses who send their sons, husband, fath- ers, sweethearts to the war, Premier Borden's conscription bill does noth- ing whatever. The United States, when it adopts conscription of life, follows it up with the logical sequel --conscription of the means of liv- ihg. The United States-has already appointed a food dictator with wide powers and is now about to regulate exports with a view to the proper nourishment of the workers at home. Although Premier Borden's con- scription bill has been on tapis six | weeks now not a thing has been done {to relieve the food situation. On the contrary the Borden Gov- | ernment as categorically refused to | ralieve it. Since the conscription i bill was first announced by the Bor- den Government the following things have happened which go to show that the unfortunate consumer is to chapter. (1) The Minister of Labor went through the staple articles of food, explaining that im each case the price was reasonable and that nothing could be done to reduce it. Potatoes in food-straitened Eng- land cost $2.25 a bag. In Canada they are $4.25 a bag. A four pound loaf made of Canadian flour that has paid freight across the ocean costs 23 cents in England. A three pound loaf costs 24 cents in Canada. Mr. Crothers says nothing can be done about it. ~ y ! (2) The Finance Minister speak- ing for the Government, has reject- ed resolutions to reduce the tariff, to increase the British Preference, to take off the duty on agricultural ek implements. (3) The Governments hints at a curtailed franchise and open vot- ing. The Junkers are not all in Germany. Y ¢4) Bacon is now fifty-two cents a pound and Joseph Wesley Flavelle has been made a baronet.

Every now and again don't you get one of those fearful headaches that drive you to do anything to get relief P Remember, though, its a mistake to just 'smother" the pain'without removing the cause. Nearly all headaches have their beginning in the stom ach, liver or Bowels, and the best remedy is Chamberlain's Tablets, which tone the liver, sweetens the stomach and cleanse the bowels. This not only cures the head- ache but prevents its return. «Al dealers 25¢10r by mail from Chamberlain Medicine Co., Toronto " CHAMBERLAINS | WISE 1] \Y N ------ | "Dellevill dn LOW FARES "Geolug each TUESDAY from MAY STH to OCTOBER 30th, 1917.
