A canvass of "Republican sentiment throughout the country recently completed shows that Republican State leaders are agreed the 1918 Presidential candidate should be conservative.
A surprising featur of the canvass is that this aliment seems to be strong. especially in those States where Progres- iyos have been most active during recent years. Itepublican factions appear to be getting together with old-line Republican leaders taking charge.
In Progressive States like, Iowa, Minne sota, Nebraska and Wisconsin there is a demand that a candidate be named who shall be acceptable to the Progressives, an i incidental to this demand is found" senti ment for Elihu Root.

MONEY WASTED ON FOOD,
Every penny counts in the kitchen nowa- days, Food prices have mounted rapidly. They are likely to keep high. You can't afford so waste; that is very certain..
To go hungry because food is not obta.... able is bad enough! But to starve in the midst of plenty-with good money in your pocket and no hindrance to buying-19 infinitely worse. Yet, this is what a host of people are doing today. Starving, mind you, not for the lack of food, but because. their digestive organs have lost tour and cannot properly digest the food they eat.. Remember, it is not what you eat, but what you digest, that nourishes your body and sustains your life.

In confirmation of the remarkable efficacy of Mother Seigel's Syrup, read this letter from Mrs. M. Peterson, Oxford Street, Wynberg, Caps Province, on April 18th. 1914: For A number of years I suffered very much from a complication of stomach disorders, and was reduced to a sad state of weakness and nervous debility. My appe tite disappeared, and the little food I ate, was generally the forerunner of a billous attack. I also suffered from constipation, flatulence, and dizziness, had many restless and sleepless nights, and on rising in the morning was usually afflicted with a split- ting headache, and found food utterly dis tasteful
"I tried all possible means to combat my complaints, but nothing helped or gave my any relief. Two years ago I was recom- mended to use Mother Seigel's Syrup, ani that seemed to be the remedy I had been in search of. A few doses gave me relief, an Tadon recovered my health and strength. I sttribute my recovery entirely to Mother Beigel's Syrup, and as I have not suffered since from any of the above symptoms it proves the cure a permanent one."
