FOUL BREATH.
WOMEN'S GREATEST MISFORTUNE.
The old saying that distance lends enchantment was nevermore aptly to the point than when applied to those people whose breath is laden with evil smelling odours. Many persons appear most attractive at a distance, but produce's feeling of pity and disgust when close to because of the condition of their breath. For instance, it makes little difference how beautiful a woman may be, or how charming her
manner if her breath is foul, her charm is gone and she is at a dis advantage when ever she comes in contact with other people. Foul breath in wonien arouses in man a feeling of repugnance and a desire to get out of the company of such a woman as quickly as possible, and even women will avoid her. It is therefore important for every woman who values her personal attraction to take such care of herself that this unpleasant and unnecessary complaint is avoided or corrested. Men, women and children who are troubled with this complaint will drive their friends away more rapidly is an other affliction. People do not realise their breaths are bad because they are like those who are constantly employed among paints and varnishes--they get used to what Is to others a most offensive sracll. In nearly all cases this condition is due to Constipation and a disordered Stomach, and a coated Tongue, slight Headache, and feverishness are the sure signs that the digestive organs are retaining quantities of impurities from which the system a should be free, thereby causing the Breath to become charged with the foul odour. In Dr. Morscs Indian Root Pills there will be found a searching, cleansing remedy which will drive the masses of decaying corruption-that poison the Blood and contaminate the breath from the system through the regular channels. They get at the cause as no other remedy docs. They get at the the foundation of the complaint They give you clean bowels, a healthy stomach, a lively liver, and blood that is rich and red. They are safe, sure and reliable remedy, and will prevent many of the complaints so common if taken once or twice a week to keep the system in a healthy condition. They are purely vegetable, and their action is not accompanied by any muscous or griping sensation, but is mild and gentle.

A REPLY TO AMERICA
Mr. Jacob H. Schiff having given an interrow in America in rolerence to the War and the possible terms of penos Mr. T. P. O'Connor has sent the following roply to the Americau Press:
tho other side, one can understand why a proud Militarist Government like that of Prussia may well hate the idea of giving up land it has occupied for nearly two centuries, and which is associated with Fredorick the Great, the great founder of the modern greatness of Germany.
If we pass from Germany to Austria, the principle of nationality makes demands There are twenty-one millions of Slave in quite as great and even more difficult,

The London papers have published u pretty full account of the romarks which were made by alr. J. H. Schiff with regard to the duration of the great European War. It is impossible to say that his views are shared. His words are, how over, welcomed from one point of view they are regarded as showing that oven strong sympathisers with Germany now realise that if Germany is not yet beaton, it is decided she cannot win,

THE GATHERING HOSTS.
Similarly on the Eastern frontier, there is a strong conviction that the German Staff seriously underrated both the size, the preparedness and the efficiency of the Russian Army, and that the invasion of Germany is, therefore, a much more serious peril than the German Staff were prepared to contemplate. It is assumed that the German chiefs know and realise these facts as well as anybody else. They also realise that as the War proceeds, the forces against them, instead of diminish ng, will be increasing. Britain is acting after its characteristic fashion in so many spheres of its life: it is very slow in starting, but very difficult to stop once the start has begun. She will by Spring have another million of men to put into the field. They will be much better drilled by that time than some of the young Ger- man recruits whose appearance on the battlefield in recent fights has been so "pathetic an incideût.
DAMAS THE ENDING OF ALL WAB
But though this proposition be clear to my mind, I see no sign of any such change present moment to make me hope that they of heart in the German authorities at the would look at any such terms of peace, Indeed, if they remain in their present temper which is much more exasperated which the German authorities will resist than that of England-these are terms until they are beaten to the earth. Yet again I must express the universal opinion to-day of British peoples that these are the only terms which will justify Britain in sheathing the sword and be an adequato return to her for all the precious blood she has spilled in this war-forced, as she holioves, and righly believes, upon hor. For these reasons I am unable at the moment to share the optimism of Mr. Jacob Schiff that this is a war which the intervention of any Power can bring to au early and an abrupt termination. Mr. Schiff has put his own purposes in clear ot be temporary. It must mark the language. The peace, bo says, "must ending of all war" I quite agree with him; but I must invito him to carry these But what will stimulate recruiting more to place the government of the countries purposes out by the only means, namely, than anything else is the entire trans of Europe on the only possible foundation formation of public opinion with regard to the payment of the soldier and of the that can save us from perpetual distur soldiers dependents.

PAS ONE MAN.
Public men of all parties are certainly doing everything in their power to stinu late recruiting. Men of the most conflict ing political views appear on the same platform, po
in adding many millions & year to the
taxation of Great Britain.
It is evident, then, that we are not going "A BURDEN TO MYSELF"
to be tired of the War, even if it should go on for a long time longer. The beavy losses in the field are felt and deplored; in the House of Commons there are plenty of men who have lost their sons, sometimes their only sons; but I find no shrinking in t any class yet from a long and an expensive war. Indeed, the expense has ceased to count. And thus, the big Budget of Lloyd George, in spite of its immense additions to taxation, has practically passed with- out a word of serious criticism.

Headaches arise from various causes, but probably their most frequent origin is in stomach, liver, or bowel troubles, **
If tolerated or disregarded, those afflic tions will surely be succeeded by periods of prostration, dopression, or attacks of dizziness which make life a dull round of misery. You can't expect to excaps signals when something is wrong. worse troubles if you disregard Nature's
It is extraordinary how some people particularly women-will silently and patiently put up with the discomfort of headaches, as if it were part of their mission in life to bear them. It is an entirely foolish notion. By taking pre- cautious to keep the three organs named in healthy working order the bulk of the suffering from headaches, giddiness, biliousness, or constipation could be avoided Mother Seigel's Syrup has in thousands of cases proved ita oficacy to prevent and banish these complaints
Mr. Schiff holds that no great country should be humiliated and unduly wonken ed in this War, and makes a strong plea for Germany. Let me try to convey what is the inner mind and purpose of the British people, and especially of that democratic section to which I belong, on this point, I do not know a single Lineral who wants to humiliate Germany or the German people, or to take from Germans a single font of the land that is strictly and really German, But this feeling is accompanied by another, which is, that German Militarisin is a scourge to the world,
