ITS CAUSE AND CURE.

THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, SATURDAY, JANUARY 22nd, 1916.

This distressing complaint so common in all hot countries is caused by the Bile overflowing in the Blood. It is not an in- dependent disorder but the symptoms of other complaints which cause the Bile to overflow in this manner instead of entering the intestines to perform its mission of aiding in the digestion and assimilation of food. Jaundice causes the skin and eyes to become yellow," and vomiting, nausea, diarrhoea, or constipation, loss of appetite, bad taste in the mouth, flatulence, belchs ing and pains in the stomach may all be accompanying symptoms. The disordered condition of the Liver is the most common cause of this complaint and a remedy. that will reach the Liver is the only effective one. Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills reach the Liver as no other remedy does, speedily causing-the-Bile to fow Unimble to cat or sleep.

There is no more effective remedy for this complaint, as a trial will prove, than Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills which are a positive and permanent cure for all Liver and Kidney dis orders, Constipation, Biliousness, Impure Blood, and Female Ailments.

This English battle-cry was taken over by all the Allies. M. Sazoneff, M. Viviani, and M. Briand, repeatedly declared they would not lay down their arms before Prussian and German militarian was con- querod. Moreover, each of the Allies havĆ their own special demands.

Sazonoff hinted very clearly at Constantinople as one of Rumia's war aims. These war objects of our enemies do not correspond with tho real military situation, but I should hurt the feelings of our enemy rulers if I said that I regarded their demands as bluff. The situation is too obvious.

We can openly say that we wish peace because the German people is strong enough and is resolved to protect its hearths and homes, if the enemy does not with pence. We wish therefore that the first decisivo step to wards ending the war should emanate from Germany (Loud cheers and slapping of hands on the Socialist benches.)

TO PREVENT SMUGGLING.

Precautions were being taken in Hal- land to prevent smuggling, and in addition it had been arranged that the books of the margarine factories should be examined periodically by a firm of British accoun- tants who would say exactly what hap- pened to the products of these factories. He hoped that by these means they would be able to prevout fat and oil going through to Germany and maintain our supply of margarine and secure to Hol and the rights of neutral trade to which she was entitled by the fundamental principles of international law. It was impossible to cut off Holland entirely from the outside world, and short of that they could not, by any device, provent smuggling into Germany. They could only minimise it, and that they believed had been done.

As the latest stimulus for inviting the blind rage of war they now place their hope in a war of cxhaustion. We all know that our provisions are sufficient, and that we only have to distribute them properly. Germany is also suficiently provided with raw materials. As to the exhaustion of men in the war, our enemies have learned that it is not only a question of numbers. A fact that cannot be denied is that Franes is Low calling out the 1917 claws, and that sho has already used up the greater part of the 1910 class.

neutral countries could justly and rightly object to. With regard to the export from Germany, Six H. Dalziel had said we had allowed to get out of Germany 37,000,000 tous of goods. He had telephoned to the Foreign Office, and he was assured that the real àgure since March 1st was about 2,750,000 tons, certainly less than 1,000,000

tons.

All these were goods ordered and paid for, or goods that would have to be paid for, whether they were exported or not, before March 1st. We had stopped alto. gether imports into Germany, and it was to the credit of the Foreign Office that they had carried through this important operation without disturbing our friendly relations with neutral Fowers.
