No doubt the skunk cabbage has risen from the liquid mud and the Globe‘s editorials, and the Times‘ editorials and the Star‘s editorials have risen from the mud, but with a dying croak have fallen back again and are wallowing there in dismay and disgust. s Still studying the momentous ques tion of the croak of the "frog," the Globe says:â€""Although the first voice of spring was the still tremolo of the toad, the harsh croak of the "frog" . was the first"to declare reâ€" lief from the silencing cold wave." Sure thing!â€"But the still tremolo of the toad, as the Globe describes it does not cut any figure with the deafening croak of the "frogs" when btey saw that their leader, Sir Wilâ€" Yes, it is natural ithat the "frogs" should make:a hbharsh protest at the cold, inconsiderate, calm business proposition made by Mr. Bordin, and no doubt, the sensible decvision of Sir Wilfrid to accept the proposiâ€" tion of Mr.‘ Borden, made all the ratepayers of the country rejoice. They might croak but surely it was more the croak of a dying "frog" than che whistle of a triumphant "FKrog." Continuing this article, the Globe says:â€"*"The richly â€" colored and fleshy cowls of the skunk cabbage have risen from the liquid mud, and the leaves, promising tropical richâ€" ness in advancing summer, are reâ€" appearing like folded points of green. Continuing its meditations, the Globe says â€""It is natural that the ‘frogs‘ should make a harsh protest at the inconsiderate cold that checkâ€" ed their noisy mirth, when all the visitors from the south were freely rejoicing." ; As long as Sir Wilfrid Laurier re fused to accept Mr. Borden‘s proâ€" position to adjourn Parliament, the Globe had lots of editorials on the iniquity and the obstructionists that were trying to hold back the busiâ€" ness of the country and even went so far as to write an editorial to inâ€" troduce "The Closure" in order to put a stop to the rascally work, that Mr. Borden and his followers were carrying on,â€"but just as soon as Sir Wilfrid Laurier decided to fall in with Mr. Borden and adjourn Parliatment for a few months, the Globe decided that it was time to cut out its editorials on reciprocity and start to insert its annual articles on “Fmgs.n Just soâ€"and yet I do not see what there is for the "frog" of the Hamilâ€" ton Times and the "Frog" of the Toronto Star and the ‘Frog" of the London Advertiser and the Globe‘s own little "frog" to croak in triumph about.â€"â€"Borden has certainly beatâ€" en them to a standstill. The Gobe says:â€" "The departed struggle of the reluctant Frost King silen ed for a time the voices of the weedâ€"~hocked pools, but the advancâ€" ing sun has again aroused them to a chorus of triumph." on Saturday, but it had a long leadâ€" er on "Frogs."â€"I suppose that the croaking of the Hamilton Times, the Toronto Star and a few .other papers which are â€" supporting reciprocity, made the Globe think that it was high time, that it was writing its annual article on the "Croaking of the Frogs.

When I worked hard the aching would become severe and I was often laid up for a week at a time.. My family })hysician told me an operation was my only hopeâ€"but I dreaded it. tried several specialists, but soon found out all they wanted was my money. Icommenced to look upon all doctors as little better than rogues. One day my boss asked me why I was off work so much and I told him mK condition. Headvised me to consult Drs. Kennedy & Kennedy, as he had taken treatment from them himself and knew they were square and skillful. I wrote them and got TE® New M:taon TrEzarmExt. My progress was somewhat slow and during the first month‘s treatment I was somewhat discouraged. However. I continued treatment for three months longer and was rewarded with a complete cure.
