(Canadian Press Despatch) MONTREAL, Jan.23 \u2014 Freight rates on regular steamers plying between Canada and the British Isles have dropped to $1.50 per cubic foot.This announcement by shipping companies is accepted by local shippers as indicating that in the next months J space will be seeking cargoes, thereby j reversing conditions that have pre-! vailed during the past four years.The rates before the war were thirty cents a cubic foot.The amount given in up to noon was $809, making a total of nearly $1700 for the two days.The formation of a ladies\u2019 committee is in progress, a meeting being called for four o\u2019clock this afternoon at \u2019the Red Cross rooms, at which Miss Eva White will occupy the chair, and teams to cover the women\u2019s canvass of the city will be elected.Ensign Graves will be present, and speak on the work for which this money is being requested.Ensign Graves reports good success in the outlying districts, the response and interest shown being most grati- es-Nations.This question promises to command virtually the undivided attention of the delegates until their action regarding Russia shows results one way or another.Out of the Russian negotiations it is hoped that some unanimous agreement\u2019 will be reached that will bring representatives of that country into further sessions at Paris.The solution to the Russian problem proposed by the Supreme Council of the Peace Congress is considered here as the first visible manifestation and realiation of British and American accord on great issues before the Peace Congress.This accord was pledged in speeches and in pri- fying.The slogan, \u201cThe Salvation ! vate expressions in England by both Army spends where it does the most good,\u201d is recognized by not only the soldiers who have been cared for, both physically and spiritually, but by men, women and even children, who realize what it means to have the S.A.men and women looking after the soldiers and their families.\u201cNo social organization has a cleaner record than the S.A.,\u201d it is stated.SPAIN TO RESUME PRE-WAR POLICY SAYS PREMIER Count Romanones Would Not Discuss Anything About

were loyally impartial, j The armistice being signed, we can no longer be neutral.We must resume our pre-war policy.\u201d Count Romanones recognized that Spain\u2019s policy in Morocco had been a

ness to co-operate, social efficiency, which also means individual efficiency.; We have sübmitted to interference I with our personal liberties, and in| small ways have gone without things ; we regarded as necessities, in order; that the war mijght be won.The spirit \u2019; of the war has brought out that strong ! feeling of Christian chivalry, the chivalry which made Great Britain rush to the defence of Belgium, and made Canada hasten to her assistance, brought our young men in hundreds to enlist under her flag.Are we to allow this Christian chivalry to drop out of sight now that the war i over?Can we not use these same forces for fighting the battles of peace ?Then ! there is prohibition.Five years ago j if anyone had told me that Canada! would be \u2018dry\u2019 in 1920, I should have : | laughed and thought speh a person : possessed with anything but insight1 K and good judgment, but prohibition is *f coming and that is a great victory.: The men have wen it, and with the ; entrance of so many women as voters it is hardly likely that it will be lost 4 again.\t1 \u201cThe enfranchisement of women has ' been brought about by the war spirit.!

Social VVelfare Magazine, a report on' conditions in the army overseas, was! most enlightening, and certainly, if it made us feel less proud of our civilians, made us more proud of our men in khaki.The safest place for a young man was the army, as far as this terrible trouble was concerned.Child Dca#i Rate Cut Down.\u201cThe terrible death rate among children is opening our eyes to the necessity of child welfare work.In the three and a half years of war, 36,000 of the.best of our young men perished, and we are saddened by these figures, but! the medical statisticians tell us that during one year only 35,000 Canadian ! children under five years of age died.Has society no responsibility for this?| We are working for sanitary housing,, for playgrounds, for pure fresh water, ' an abundant supply of pure milk and! other foods suitable for little children,1 at a price within the reach of -\u201d16 poor.What proportion of these 35,000 children belonged to Sherbrooke ?Do you know?Have any children died in Sherbrooke for want of these things?\u201d continued the speaker.The Rev.Mr.Perry acted as chairman of the evening, and the Revs.G.E.Read, A.Bright and E.C.Russel! were also on the platform.$27.00 Small China Cabinet, in select Empire quartered Oak.Very neat and attractive design.Strong construction and fine finish.Worth $24.50.Our special price $16.5» These are only four of forty bargains we have to offer you in China Cabinets.Call and see them, ' Crockerf Remember that our new Crockery Department can fill your every want.Our stock is well assorted and prices are low.A visit will be very much appreciated.Echenberg Bros REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS Registrations in the Sherbrooke 1 Division Registry Office during the1 week ending January 18, 1919, arc: ; J.A.Leclerc to J.M.Nault lot 1537-81, south ward.Price $800.Mrs.Oedeon Sylvain to R.'B.de la \u2019 Rruere, lot 3b, range 8, Compton, i Price $8,000.Valmore Larose to Alfred Bolduc.: part lots 147 and and 148, village of Compton.C.B.Howard to Mrs.E.F.Olivier, S.E.part lot 217 and N.E.part lot 221 north ward, and lot 220, part lots 213 and 219, nqrth ward.Price $10,000.Arcade Cote to John Cote, lot 548 and part 350, Orford.Price $3,000.R.C.Young to C.W.Peterson, lot 204, WaterviUe.Price $1,000.Daniel Hallett to W.J.Armstrong, lots 866 and 867, and part 574, north ward.Price $1.i W.R.Thwaites to Joseph Dezan, 1 part lot 86, WaterviUe.Price $225.The school commissioners of the | township of Ascot to Frank R.Tit-'combe, lot 17d, range 2, Ascot.; j Price $300.Mrs.J.J.Pcnhale to T.S.Som-j ers, rights in lots 669, 671 and 672, | north ward, and lots 112 and 113,!

Who knew what might happen to anyone of us ?It might be the fate of oblivion or it might be condemnation to execution.Life hau become intolerable in the presence of this emissary of the enemy\u2014Maclinks.On his side, existence was made so miserable for him that he finally requested to be removed, and a few weeks later he left the jail, never to return.One noteworthy feature of this spying business in Germany is that the authorities can never trust, but are constantly suspicious of the spies they employ.Maclinks, it is true, was allowed to leave the Stadtvogtei, butj he was not allowed his full liberty, i Authentic information we were able { to obtain subsequently was to the e£-j feet that he was moved from one pri-j son to another.Kirkpatrick, who was the oldest: prisoner amongst us, was much liked and highly respected\u2014he was in fact, I as we often told him, our \u201cguide,! ing the singer the jail authorities were seeking.The joke was a good one in the circumstances, and we enjoyed it immensely.(To be continued Tomorrow) -*- CARDINAL GIBBONS RECEIVES GREETINGS BALTIMORE, Md., dan 22.-Without formality, Archbiehip Cer-retti, under secretary of state at the Vatican, today presented Pope Benedict\u2019s greetings to Cardinal Gibbons on the occasion of the cardinal\u2019s golden jubilee of his episcopate.Later in the day Cardinal Gibbons entertained Monsignor Cerretti at dinner.-«-:- NEW ZEALAND\u2019S TOTAL LIST OF CASUALTIES GIVEN AS 57,932 WELLINGTON, N.Z., Jan.22.\u2014 New Zealand\u2019s casualties in the war are placed at fifty-seven thousand nine hundred and thirty-two, of which sixteen thousand five hundred are killed.There were only forty-five pri-roners.% EASTERN rftAor maiih HATS CAPS 14 < W.C.MACDONALD, REG\u2019D EST\\BLISIIKD OVF/R «0 TEARS Tobacco Manufacturers TRADE MARK REflISTKTUCD MONTREAL Plug Chewing \u201cPrince o!

given in this case has shown a dispo- i sition to agree with the contention of : the Montreal Sugar Refinery that the rates established on the Government Railways constituted a discrimination against them, and gives the refineries of the Maritime Provinces an advantage on sugar shipments to western points.Mr.E.Lafleur, K.C., on behalf of j the Montreal and Wallaceburg refine- | ries, this morning strongly supported | and proposed recommendation of the | Railway Board.He maintained that ! the new rate had been imposed as a ; measure of relief to the eastern re- j fineries, who ordinarily get their raw sugar by water, but that they were | adversely affected by war conditions, j He urged that now that the war is t over Montreal refineries should be re- i lieved from the discrimination thatj now prevails and that the sugar rates j be put on a class basis.On behalf of the Maritime Provin- ! ces sugar refiners it was maintained! that the existing rates should be main tained because of the increase in oc-ean freight rates.Hold a cake of Gold Soap7 You will feel how big and heavy it is.You will immediately notice that it is unusually long, that it is proportionately thick, that it is very wide, and that it feels solid and substantial.You will realize at once that it is bigger than any other cake of laundry soap at the same price.You will realize that it is better even before you use it.Cold Soap U made in the Procter A Gamble Factories at\\Hamilton, Canada m W The Ideal Pulmonary Tonic =VIN MORIN: CRESO-PHATES Invaluable to all who are weak chested and threatened with Tuberculosis as well as to those suffering from Anemia, Neurasthenia and Convalescents.On Sale Every where.DR.ED.MORIN & CO., Limited, Qnebee, Canada._________________________________________________ 1 ASK YOU »EI.are you logical in your uao of modi-cine?When your etomach is ailing you take something that reaches the stomach, but whoa the trouble is In your Jungs cr breathing passages, do you taka something that geta there direct 7 This Is where so many people make a mistake.They swallow remedies into the stomach in a vain attempt to cure an ailment which is of the lunge!
