Stairs, East Water- ville, N.B., writes®--"[ have raised a family of ten children and have al- ways used Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Strawberry for summer com- plaint, and It has never failed. Four years ago, when the cholera was about, some of my neighbors call- ed in the doctor, but could get no re- lef. I told them about "Dr. Fowl- er's,'" and after taking it they were soon well again. I also used it for two of my own children at the same time when they were passing blood, and a few doses soon made them well." If you want to be on the safe side ask for Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild + Btrawberry, and insist on getting what you ask for.

M. writes: I cannof keep the headlights of my car light- od two minutes at a time, as the bulbs burn out almost immediately And the fuses melt out also. The generator has recently been over- hauled and a new battery has just been put in. What do you think causes this? Answer: This is evidently 'a tase of excessively high voltage, dccasioned by the failure of {ps generator to regulate. Unless the sircuit from the generator to the battery is complete and of nor- mally low resistance, generator voltage will Increase greatly, as the engine speeds up. Even a cor- roded connection between the gen- erator wire and the battery term- inal will cause this. Your generator is regulated by a reversed series winding'on the flelds, through which the charging current passes and if tho amount of this current is less than it should be, from any cause, or If the series winding was mis- connected or cut out, by accident, when the generator, was over- Aauled, the enormous rise in volit- Age, which burns out your bulbs, would be accounted for.

B. G. asks: Can you Suggpst the cause of a peculiar loud, buz- zing noise, which seems to come from underneath my car, when It reaches a speed of about 18 m. p. h.? At first, I thought it must be something loose, like the pan or one of the brake rods, which was set shaking by engine vibration but I have gone over the whole chassis several times without find- ing anything that can shake in this way. Answer: It is possible that this may be a muffler noise. If a baffle plate has come loose inside or it one of the shells is insecure in the heads, there is likely to be a vibra- tion set up, when the exhausts enter the muffler at exactly the right frequency. The vibration, thus started may continue through quite a range of speed. If by striking the muffler with a mallet, it gives out a noise similar to that which you have been hearing, it 1s most likely the source of the sound and new muffler will be required, unless you care to take the pres- ent one apart and try to tighten tery is taking the full normal it up. Low Economy Adil Power From Leaky Cylinders Adility To Hold Its Charges Is A Fundamental Engine Requirement RECENTLY, OUR ATTENTION was called to a second-hand light six-cylinder car, the owner of which complained that he could not run over 8 or 9 miles per gallon of gasoline nor more than 200 miles per gallon of oil and. that it on a gallon of oil. A glance at the "wouldn't pull your hat off." usually travel 16 or 18 miles on a gallon of fuel Cars of this make and at least 500 miles smoky exhaust, the inspection of a spark-plug and a moment's use of the hand-crank, whidh offered prac tically no resistance as the which was that the engine cycle--directly contrary to customary four-stroke cycle a re-grinding of the valves at once engine was turned over, discloeed the trouble, Was running practically on a non-compression @ the precepts of is attributed.

F. W. asks: How can I stop the valves of my car from clicking ? : First sae that there ir the least allowable c nce be- t R each push-rod and the end of the valve-stem upon which it acts. The correct clearance is a matter of a fow thousandths of an inch and is doubtless specified ex- actly In your instruction book. A strip of sheet metal of the right thickness is very handy in adjust. ing these clearances. If the valve. gear is still noisy, it is probably because one or more of the push- rods is worn in its guide, because & cam or cam-follower is badly worn or on account of wear be tween some of the valve stems and their guides. Unless the acting end of the push-rod and the end of the valve stem are both flat and true it will be impossible to set the clearance so that quiet operation will result. Be sure that the clamps, which hold the push-rod guides in place, are tight. answered by Questions ¥r.

Born eighty-five years ago in Tyen- dinaga township, Miss Mary Cather- ine Yourex passed away on her birth- day. Death took .place early Thurs- day morning at the home of her njece, Mrs, A. R. Vandervoort, Bel- leville. She was a daughter of the late William Yourex and leaves one brother, Dr. J. Yourex, Camden East. The late James Yourex, Bel- leville, was a brother also. The burial took plate at Camden East. She came of United Empire Loyalist stock and was a member of Bridge street Methodist church, Belleville, Classic Rome had no street lights. Lord Robert Cecil Exerts Moral Power in Politics He Cannot be Harnessed TOOOPODNPIGETOPITTTIOote Those persons who insist on classi- fying public men have discovered that Lord Robert Cecil can be called a Liberal. Accordingly, they are .dis- | cussing him as a possible successor | to Mr. Asquith. Lord Robert is too rich a personality to be so limited or confined. . In the House of Commons since 1906, and of Cabinet "timber" from the very first, Lord Robert Cecil, | third son of the third Marquis of | Salisbury, is not an aspirant for of-| fice. Hc is in public life by virtue | of his love of sound policies and, | perhaps, as an irresistible urge of his | Cecilian ancestry. It was broad statement of political belief that en- abled the journalists to dub him a Liberal. If he is a Liberal, he is one more in the Gladstonian sense. Like Glad- | stone, he is a staunch supporter of | the Church of England. Besides com- piling a standard work on commer- 'cial law, he has wriften for sheer love, a work, "Our National Church. With no less passion than his brother, | Lord Hugh, but perhaps with less abandon, he defends the establish- | ment from its detractors. | He resembles Gladstone again in a great enthusiasm for Christianity in a wider sense. Kingdom of God on earth, and is ever ready to fight for that consum- mation. wrongs and will never allow Parlia- | ment to become a mere underes | He will denounce moral | men's club. .If Gladstone thundered against the Bulgarian atrocities and | 'the Armenian massacres, to-day this | Cecil raises his voice against the new Turkish manifestations, the slaugh- ters of Christians in Asia Minor. There is nothing of the cold pre- cision of Asquith or the clever com- promise of Lloyd George about this man, who, because he speaks out more boldly than some of his Con- servative colleagues, is held to be a Liberal. The truth is that Lord Rob- ert is: no mere party man. He was first elected as a Unionist in the elec- tion in which the Unionists fell from power. He was a Unlonist Cabinet Minister in the War Coalition, after serving his apprenticeship as Under Secretary. But the technique of partyism bores him, if it does not disgust him. He prefers causes to parties. | Some have charged that Lord Rob- ert's one lack was enthusiasm. If he had no genuine emotional power, how does it come that the Mirrors of Downing Street say that he kept the League of Nations alive at Versailles in a war atmosphere? If he-Jacked the power that comes from: moral earnestness, the London Nation, or- gan of Liberalism, would scarcely say: "Lord Robert Cecil is in many men's thoughts and, indeed, the growing hopes that the standard of public life will rise again after its terrible decline, largely centre on him. What the party wants is a re- inforcement of its energy. Lord Rob- ert is the one man of first-rate ability who seems profoundly to care where Europe is going, and who wants ty make England care too. If I werefa Liberal leader it should be my first thought to enlist such a force as this, and give it {its appropriate work." ' And so the Nation, reminding its readers that he has many wa ad- mirers both in Liberalism and Labor, would make him the liaison officer of & Liberal-Labor administration. They would hardly catch him for so me- chanical and distasteful a task with- out surprising all who know him. He is not a Churchill, either Randolph or Winston. His apparent lack of en- thusiasm is not boredom, but diffi- dence and modesty. What is he really like? One who knows him writes in the London Daily Mail that he is a man of great height, lean and of immense reserve energy, both bodily and men- tal, most self-contained when most aroused, practical and not fanatical. That is not the Cecil that has been painted, but it is the man who, at 68, is a great man and .may, in a year or two become known as a great statesman. But the bright journalists 'Wust be allowed to call him a Lib- eral, a fanatic, a cynic, a Tory, for they do not understand him and he is 50 interesting that they must write about him. "Linky"--as his friends all know him---may never be Premier, but he will be right oftener than most Premiers. English (Caves. The chiet caves in England are about Ingleborough, Northwest YoFk- shire, in the Peak district of Derby- shire, and round about Chaddar, in Somerset. Gaping Ghyll of Ingle borough goes down in one plunge of 360 feet, and was first scientifically explored in 1895 by M. Martel. Below this the cavern opens out, and the lower stage was d by the French speleologist, in the Alpine Journal, as "an fmmense cathedral, unsupported by a single pillar. There Was one vast hall, 500 feet long, 80 to 100 feet high, 66-116 feet broad. Thus it is one of the five or six larg- est cayes known at present to exist In the whole world, and the scene ranks among the most impressive that I ever expected to come across in my underground wanderings." The Derbyshire caves go deep, but they are surpassed in brilliance by the stalactite caves of Cheddar, by the many-hued masses of incrustation in Lamb's Lair, and the snowy ter- races and rich emblazonries of Swil- doi's Hole and other caves fn Somerset. .
