"The reason for the Free State's request to Britain to exclude Mr. Russell, unless the latter under- took not to visit the Free State is explained by the secretary of the Free State Ministry of Justice to be the outcome of the arrest of a man arriving at Queenstown from America last month possessing documents allegedly addressed to republican leaders. It stated that Russell's name appeared therein. The man was arrested and is at present awaiting trial for treason.

DAIRY FARM MILK
- A GUARANTEE
Our fresh milk is guaranteed The Purest in the Far East. It is also unsurpassed in Richness. If the milk of some of the rative dairies shows a heavier cream line than ours, do not imagine that it is richer, -It is certainly not purer. Every ounce,
of milk produced at our Farms is thoroughly filtered and clarified before being bottled. Those processes plus the process of refrigeration which immediately follows, have a decided ton- deney to disturb the normal condition of the fat globuler, which consequently prevenis a great number of these globules from rising to the surface -hence a
thinner cream line than in milk which has not gone, through a cleansing process The cream is there all the same, but a large portion of it remains in the body of the milk. Clarification is now the recognised method by which milk can be thoroughly cleansed and freed of all impurities. All the world's leading duiries clarify for Purity,
Those who realise how important Clean, Pure, Rich Milk is to Health should use DAIRY FARM MILK ONLY.
