Women will know, This to be True! |

Haven't you found this to be trus—that one ‘batch of flour will five you certain results but that the next.time you botight the same brand your results would be quite different. Now, the - big flour companies employ chemists to see ‘that’ their flours are kept to a constant standard. Drugs. like flours, may be thoroughly pure but of a variable standard, means in the effectiveness of your doctor’s prescreptions.

“Ormes buy their drugs only from manufacturers © who guarantee that their products are not only 100

’ per cent, pure, but that their strength is as unvary- ing as the daily round of the sun.

The prosperity of Canada is some- thing which politicians particularily

|delight in talking and writing about.

There is a measure of truth in, the claim too, if the vast income of the Dominion ts taken as a cviterian. . If the argument is allowed then it is time the Dominion Government either gave up its telephone’ system, and even its telegraph system, or made such im- provements to it, as are necessary. to meet the requirements of the commun- ity it-is supposed to serve. The tele-. phone service is particularly poor, in fact it is not a service in any sense of At the present time: there

that line is the poorest possible, that business men are disgusted with it,

‘Jand the mining companies are-not tak-'

ing it on. Many business men will

“| discontinue to use it unless it is put on

—

‘if the

n more satisfactory basis. There is lots of business for,a telephone service ‘service was available The Dominion’ Telegraphs -should either

‘| provide that service or get out of the

business,

Whnt o difference there was in the editorial whine of the Prince Rupert News after the provincial election to that published . 2 couple of years ago after the Dominion election. Af- the Dominion election when a Liberal

News asked that government to pun-

‘}ish Prince Rupert and the whole north}

for having elected a Conservative, and that government has punished Prince itupert and the north.. Following the provinelal election the News asks the New Conservative government: to bless Prince Rupert for having elected o Liberal .

The News of Prince Rupert need not worry about’ Prince Rupert not be- ing fairly treated by Hon, Dr, Tolmie and his.’ government. He is a much’ bigger man than many in the. Ottawa government and is not one - possess: ed with a spirit of revenge. - Prince Rupert has alwoys’ lived on politics, But there is hope for that city, even with the News and its -prattle.
