Mr. Lloyd George, in proposing the despatch of the Note, con- tended that the Germans had committed an act of great disloyalty. The Germans, however, deny that they went behind the backs of the other delegates, asserting that they discussed the Treaty with the British delegation officials four times last week.

M. Litvinoff interviewed declared that the Treaty had been It is unaccompanied by any military pablished in its entirety. convention.

The French contend that the agreement as involving Germany'a renunciation of her credit account with Russia violates Clause 260 of the Treaty of Versailles, which reserves German assets in Russia in favour of the Allies, and the Reparations Commission will prob ably declare this part of the Treaty null and void.

New York, April 19.

It is reported from Washington that President Harding and his advisers are ready to accept the Russo-German Treaty at its face value as a financial and peace settlement without any sweep- ing political significance. They are of the opinion that nothing in the Treaty condicts with the German-American treaty, inter- feres with American interests in Russia cr Germany or materially alters the status of Russia.

Genoa, April 19.

German circles informed Reuter that the German' reply to the Allied Note will be delivered to-day. It declares that the German delegation is ready to submit the Russo-German Treaty to the Con- discus- ference, but protests against exclusion from Russian sions, pointing out that this is a matter for decision by the whole Conference and not the Allies only.

In consequence of German assertions that they previously dis- cussed the Treaty with British officials, Mr. Lloyd George issued a statement to the French Press emphasising British loyalty to the French stipulations concerning the scope of the Conference. He declares that Britain and France will continue to co-operate and affirms that Britain is opposed to all ascendencies in Europe, be leving peice to be the great common interest.

London, April 19. From Genoa a report is current among the Baltic delegations to the effect that the Russo-German Treaty contains confidential clauses virtually constituting a new treaty having exclusive re- ference to coaditions wherein Germany and Russia lend each other military aid It is stated that Poland is drawing up a Note pro- testing against the Treaty and declaring it will not alter Polish polley which is based on the.

Loadon, April 19.

The Daily Mail contends that the Russo-German Treaty nakes! Russia practically a German colony, adding that if the reports are correct that Japan is seeking a rapprochement with the Bolsheviks. the Allies will be faced with something very much like an alliance between Germany, Russia and Japan, wherein the German militarists will pull all the wires.

Several of the morning papers are inclined to consider the Allied counterthrust to be mild. The Times complains of the ab sence of measures na regards the Russians, and the Independent Liberal organs on reflection find little fault with the Treaty, as a recognition of facts, though they criticise the Russo-German procedure.

A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY

7am-Buk

The Magical Herbal Healer For All Skin Diseases & Injuries

Over two thousand years ago the athletes and fighting gladiators of the Roman Empire, to ensure speedy healthy healing of wounds, sores and injuries, anointed them with magical herbal oils and balms. Taking a lesson from the Ancients, eminent scientists undertook a search, to recover these lost secrets.

Their attention was gradually directed to the extraordinary medicinal properties of certain rare herbs. Scientifically treated, these were found, to yield rich oils and essences of astonishing soothing, healing and disease. dispelling power Steps were next taken to bring these potent extracts to a bigh point of refinem it and in such perfect combination as would be most The result was, that, after lengthy experiment effective for moderu use. and with the aid of many delicate scientific processes, the new wonderful healing substance-ZAM-BUK~was at last discovered.

This super-balm has revolutionized treatment of skin-disease and injuries. Wherever Zam-Buk is applied to a wound, sore or other trouble, it instantly soothes pain and irritation. It is so highly refined that it acts below the skin surface. Powerfully antiseptic it removes all poisonous impurities and KILLS AND EXCLUDES THE GERMS THAT CAUSE INFLAMMATION AND ULCERATION.

Common salves and ointments with their rancid animal fats and coarse mineral drugs are totally superseded by this pure herbal Zam-Buk. Even long-standing cases of eczema, ulcers, abscesses, scalp diseases, bad legs. piles, poisoned wounds and chronic sores yield readily to its curative influence. It is also the ever-ready antiseptic for everyday accidents. A touch of herbal Zam-Buk on a cut, burn, scald, bite or sting takes away all" pain and ensures speedy clean healing. Invaluable in a hundred emergen- cies-Zam-Buk is indispensible in every Home and Workshop.
