Chill Danger
IN
N. our climate, with its trying tem- peratures, everybody needs to take Peps. Even the strong chested are liable to be laid low by those sudden chills which, striking at the lungs, set up bronchitis, pleurisy and pneumonia.
Make it a habit to dissolve one or two. Peps tablets in your mouth whenever you go out into the chilly night air or any throat soreness or sneezing attack warns of a threatened cold..
The healing germicidal fumes given off by Peps swiftly destroy the gerins of colds, influenza, cic. Peps soon cnd mischief in the throat and tender breathing tubes. Anydrritation and that teasing, tickling cough is quickly allayed by Peps and the semi-inflamed bronchial tubes are soothed and healed. Peps fortify the entire breathing system. They ward off dangerous chills and fevers.

MBRIAND'S NEW YEAR. REVIEWS:
Park, Jan. 3.
The most notablo International achievement of 1926, according to M. Briand, writing in the Matin. was the construction of a peace framework, which might take time to shake, but constitued an instrument of appreciabile solidity against the risk of war, M.. Briand roviowed the numerous recent international agreements, Including the Italo-Gorman trenty, drafted in "unexceptionable terma."
He was a sincero friend of Haly and always ready for a rapproche- ment with her, Pantang
France adhered to the spirit of the Washington agreements, and entertained a legitimate desire not to allow her honourable. Interesta. to be assalled, but would refrain from interference in Chinese internal politica, and do nothing against the unity of the country. Thereby he was convinced she would find herself in agreement with the Washington signatories. Reuter."

BRITAIN AND CANTON:
RAMSAY MACDONALD'S
OPINION.1
London, Jan. 3. Mr. Ramsay Macdonald in an article in the Socialist Review.says the Canton Government is natur- ally in a truculent mood, and believes it has beaten us.
The Cantonese are prilikely to take us at our own valuation. We must put ourselves right with them, but a mere scuttle will not do that. The old conditions of China have imposed on us obliga tions which remain until we are relieved of them by negotiation.
"Canton must be assumed to have commonsense, and once it is assured by the genuineness of, our desire to come to terms on a basis
ink recognition of China's nationality and right of self-go- vernment, it will surely not object
