succeeded Cardinal Gasparri as Pope Benedict's Prime Ministerdispatches direct from Rome credit:4 \u201cmany Italian newspapers and some authorities on Vatican affairs,\u2019 \u2018as ai- firming that Cardinal Gsspart.had resigned.partly becaus: of ill-healh and partly because of the Pope's desire to institute a new policy in relation io Germany.The semi-offictaf Vatican organ flatly denied, how :ves, that the Cardinal had retired.The message received by the Bureau of Information quotes Monsignor Tedeschini as declaring; for a \u201cprace of justice.\u201d It follows: \u201cIn a conversation with Monsignor Frederico Tedeschini new Secretary\u2019 of State of the Vatican, had with the Rome correspondent of th: A.B.C, a spanish newspaper.he made the following declarations: \u201c\u2018Only a Christian peace is desr:- able.because it will be a feac: of jrrstice.Some people have pretended th-e a Chri-tian peace onght to be a white prac: or a peace without resul:; that is.a peaoce bringing the world bark 0 the status quo ante.\u201cThis is not exact.We believe, o~ the contrary, that there are righs v-\"ish fegtice must respect.We can- r * \u201clieve, for instance.that Cathoc Poland will re-ert to the same : as it was before the war As C-stians we cannot approve that Palestine should r:main under Turkis\" voke.\u201cWe believe also that everyone vould be satisfied to see Alace-Lor- roiae returned to France.We believe finally that if the Italian provinces now under Austrian domination would be attributed to Italy, no Christian would oppose it.just as no Christian world declare himself opposed to the unification of Kumania in the east GERMAIN LIBERATED BY THE COURT.Hon.Justice Lavergn: in chambers yesterday morning, rendered pudg- ment in the appeal of F.X.Germain, ex-manager of the Crown street branch of the Sing:r Sewing Machine Company, who was sentenced by the Hon.Judge Langelier, in the Court of Sessions some time ago, to six months imprisonment on the charge of defrauding the company.Hon.Justice Lavergne annulled the judgment of the lower court and liberated Germais on hahbeas corpus proceedings on the grounds of a compromise between plaintiff and defendant.The habeas corpus proceedings were entered on behalf of sfr.Germaiæ by Mr.Henri Bernier, advocate, with Mr.Alleyn Taschereau as counsel, the plaintiff's being represented by Mr.J.A.Lain:, K.C.and the Crown by Mr.Arthur Fitzpatrick, K.C.Previous! show the people vf LORD ROBERT CECI GIVES INTERVIEW SHOWS TREMENDOUS WAR BURDEN CHEERFULLY SHOULDERED BY BRITISH PEOPLE.London, August 10\u2014[,ord Robert Cecil, Minister of Blockade, in his weekly talk with The Associated Press today discussed Great Britain's | war expenditure in the hope that a better idea of its details inight serve the United States what a trem :ndous war burden the people of Great Britain have cheerfully shouldered.: \u201cIn the period from April 1, 1914, to August 4, 1917, the Rritish rovern- ment\u2019s total expenditures has been $26,375,000,000,\" Losd Baber deciers ed.\u201cNearly one-fifth of this heure, or $5,220,000,000 has been advanced to our allies, \u201cHow does this hit the ordinary citizen?Well, we raised a consider able part of this expenditure by taxation, and taxation pcr head in Great Britain has increased irum less than $18 per year befure the war ty $61 yearly at present.Cf this average $61 which every man, woman and child pays annually te the government, $30 is collected hy direct taxa- tien, namely, income tax, excess profits tax, stamp tax and death duties of iulieritance tax.The otiter 511 comes from indireet taxation, naimely, customs or excise.\u201cWe now are raising $510,000,000 yearly by direct taxation and $2,335, 000,000 by indirect taxatior.I: may be added that heavy restrictions have been put on all government expenditure which is not imme liatelv required for war purposes and on private expenditures wherever such restric tion was possible.To take one instance, the building trades have heen practically at a standstill since the commencement of the war so that there is a large shortage of houses at the present time.\u201cThe people have responded wonderfully to appeals for volumtary restrictions in food expealiture, and an increasing proportion of all classes is practising economy in every possibic direction, putting the fruit of such economy at the service of the government in the form of loans.Popular loans have had a wide success and today over 35,000 civillan associations are at work collecting small private war loan subscriptions DISASTROUS DAY FOR .GERMAN AIR SERVICE.British Front in France and Belgium, August 10\u2014Yesterday was a disastrous day for the German air service which again was active after s long spell of bad weather that precluded observation.Scven enemy airplanes were crashed to earth, and another was driven down out of control.The German sausage observation balloons also had a bad time.Two of them were destroyed and four others, emitting smoke; were forced to decend in a yey condition.Three others were hi by British airmen and warez more torced by long range nre from the British guns.GORDONS LONDON DRY GIN CORDONS OLD TOM GIN GORDONS SLOE CIN veu ay Fasewéantant | | east of Goussaseours, BRITISH AND FRENCH ARMIES MADE FÜRTHER GAINS IN FLANDERS-HAIG'S MEN: TOOK GERMAN FIRST LINE POSITIONS FROM FREZEN.BERG TO YPRES-MENIN ROAD \u2014 FRENCH CAPTURED SEVERAL FARMS \u2014 CANADIANS WITHSTANDING INTENSE GERMAN SHELLING.Both the British and French armies facing the Ce¢mans in Flanders have again struck hard blows at their antagonists and been rewarded with further gains in the line of Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavacis.While the fighting has occurred unly on isnlated sectors, it seems evident that the heavy artillery duels that are in progress all along the front from Nieuport to the Franco-Belgiau border are the forerunners of \u2018a resumption of the big Allied offensive which the rain and the accompanying mire stopped almost at its inception more than a week ago.Driving eastward from the sector of Ypres in the early dawn of Friday Field Marshal Haig's men took for their own all the German first line positions east of Hooge hetween Frezenberg and the Ypres-Menin road, including the village of Westhoek, and held them in their «ntirety, net- withstanding the usual counter-attacks launched by the Germans under an extremely heavy barrage fire.To the north near Bixachoote and Langemarck the French troops have captured several farms held by the Germans and also have taken a number of machine guns from them.While these gains are characterized as \u201cslight,\u201d they nevertheless are another step forward eastward toward the Ostend-Lille railroad, toward which the British drive from Hooge also is pointed.The Canadiang lying in their trenthes at the doorstep of Lens and the British forces holding trenches south of the famous Vimy Ridge are coming in for intensive shelling from the Germans.On the long neglected front near St.Quentin the Germans have delivered a surprise attack of considerable proportions, but were unsuccessful in gaining ground anywhere except at several weak points in the centre of the French line.Otherwise the fire of General Petain\u2019s men put down the sally, inflicting considerable casualties on the Germans.Likewise along the Aisne front the Germans have delivered onslaughts against the French, but here also they met with the same result that bas marked the previous attempts of the German Crown ts piesce the I - Moench Hueninfont.~At-vavers?poifity the Qerfians to make their way into isolated trenches, but they met death later in hand-to-hand fighting or were captured.Aside from the front in France little fighting of moment is taking place except in Galicia, Bukowina and Southern Moldavia.In all these sectors | the Germans and Austro-Hungarians are declared by the Berlin War Office to be continuing their pains.South-east of Czernowitz, the capital of .Bukowina, the Germans have penetrated the Russian frontier positions.between the Trotus and Putna valleys and in souchtrn Moldavia, in the region of Fokshani, have thrown their forces across the Suchitza river on a wide front.British laborites at a conference in London by an overwhelming vote have decided to send a delegation to the coming international Socialist conference at Stockholm.PERU MAY BE NEXT.Washington, August 10\u2014Failure of the German Foreign Ofice to placate Peru has forced that country into a position where some officials of the State Department believe it can do nothing less than break relations with the Imperial government.Manuel De Freyre Y Santander, the Peruvian Charge D'Affaires, today was informed by his government that Peru would not accept the new German proposal to submit the case of the Peruvian bark Lorton to a prize \u201ccourt.Unofficial advices yesterday said the Peruvian Senate had endorsed President Wilson's stand in the war, and a break in relations is now expected by many officials co follow shortly.LICHNOWSKY SHOWN UP.London, August 10-(Via Reuter\u2019s Ottawa Agency)\u2014M.Take Jonescu, vice-president of the Rumanian Council of Ministers, in a letter to the Times says that during his visit to London in the second haif of July, 1814, he saw the German Ambassador almost daily, sometimes twice dally, and is in a position to know that the ultimatum to Serbia was known and approved in Berlin; that Tschirschky participated in drafting it, snd that Lichnowsky asked Jonescu to telegiaph Premier Passitch, of Serbia, advising acceptance o fthe ultimatum, promising a modification of its harsh conditions.Lichnowsky told M.jonescu on the 87th of July, 1914, that he no longer believed England would abandon her neutrality.BRIT(SH STATEMENT.London, August 10\u2014The official communication issued tonight by the British headquarters announces that the British trcops have made further gains on the battle front east of the Belgian town of Ypres.The communication says that heavy casualties were inflicted on the enemy during fierce fighting for possession of advantageous positions.The text follows: \u201cOur attack this morning eust of Ypres was delivered on a front of nearly two miles south of the Ypres-Roulers railway.On the right wing of the attack heavy fighting occurred for the high ground astride on the Ypres-Menin road.Some progress was made by our troops in this area and the figliting continues.\u201cIn the centre and on the left our attack, after overcoming the enemy's resistance, resulted in our gaining the whole of our objectives.In addition to Westhoske and Westhaeke ridge, which are now completely in our hands, our troops established themselves in Glencorse wood.In the fierce fighting that occurred heavy casusities were inflicted on the enemy.We took 840 prisoners.\u201cIn addition to th: foregoing number of prisoners, we captured in successful raids last aight east of Monchy-Le-Preux 88 of the enemy.\u201cThe enemy raided one of out posts south-east of Guenappe and two of our men are missing.Onother hostile raiding party was repulsed north.AUGUST 11, 1917.WESTER LIBERALS Farther south, fighting with their allies, they have taken height positions 1 warmer.Gulf and North Shore: Westerly winds, showers in som: places at DISQUIET VETERANS, LATTER 80 DISSATISFIED THEY MAY FORM A NEW PARTY.Winnipeg, August 10\u2014-The formation of a new party, which will hold its own convention, may be the outcome of the dissatisfiction of the, Veterans of the West, over the Liberal convention.J.Hilliard Leech, KC.>f the ea ecutive board of the Ariny and Navy Veterans Association, and chairman of the committee which waited upon the resolutions committee of the Libe1al conventian on Wednesdey morning to urge the formation of a national government, said today that a definite plan of campaign to force a \u2018win-the-war\u2019 government would be adopted at a meeting t> be held cn Tuesday.TAFFS CONDITION WEEK-END SALE Just the sale perhaps thet you have been looking for, For this Friday and Saturday selling the prices are at their lowest ebb.LADIES\u2019 PANAMAS $100 The real kind too.Made of very closely woven Panama Straw.\u2018 Reg.up to $8.00.WASH SUITS, $6.00 $1200 $1125 Reg.twice these prices.Irish Linen Palm Beach, Cotton Gabardine, Shantung.ALL WASH SKIRTS $425 Cotton Gaberdine in Mauve, Grey and Green, some having the large fancy designs so popular at the moment.EE MUCH IMPROVED EX-PRESIDENT DESIRES FOOD FOR FIRST TIME SINCE MONDAY.Clay Centre, Kas., Angust 10\u2014Wil- liam H.Tift is much better tonigm.\u201cHe improved wonderfully today,\u2019 ac cording to the statement of tne attending physician given out tonight.Mr.Taft asked for food today, the first time since Monday when he was stricken with an internal disorder.He : was given a soft boiled egy and some ! toast.Not only is his physical condition improved, but his mental attitude has brightened.The attending physician said it was impossible to state when Mrwould beable to resume his speaking tour.He said, however, that it probably would take some time for Mr.Taft to regain his strength after he leaves his bed.a pa ns pese | The Weather Toronto, August 10\u2014Showers have occurred in southern Alberta and disturbance is now centered n:ar St.|.John, N.B., and has caused heavy rain and squalls near the Bay of Fundy.Elsewhere the weather nas been fair.Temperatures.Min.Max.Dawson Cily .#4 84 Vancouver .46 70 Prince Rupert .AR 00 Calgary.on © .8 ze Regina .0.41 77 Saskatoon .42 80 Medicine Hat .50 Gn Edmonton .42 7 Battleford .42 [0 Prince Albert .42 82 Moose Jaw .62 Winnipeg .76 Port Arthur.7 London.7 Toronto .ee es 78 Kingston .3 it O:tawa .7 Montreal .76 Quebec.\u2026.\u2026.0 78 St.John .\u2026.«iv Lo, 56 6» Halifax.64 74 Forecasts: Low:r Lakes and Georgian Bay: Light to» moderite winds, fine and a little warmer.Ottawa and St.Lawrence: Moderate westerly winds, fine and a little first;

PATRIOTS AMERICAN NEED STAND AGAINST GREAT BRITAIN DECLARED RESULT OF GERMAN PROGRAM.Chicago, Il\u2014\"There is a tendency in certain quarters to depreciate Great Britain.It is à part of à program of | German propagandists, organized in committees,\u201d Dean Shailer Mathews of the University of Chicago, told a large gathering of business men in the Chicago Association of Com-| merce.Dean Mathews is known in-; ternationally as head of the univer | sity\u2019s theological school, but perhaps more broadly as president of the Fed-: erated Council of the Churches of | Christian America.\u201cThis tendency takes various forms,\u201d continued Dein Mathews.\u201cMayor Thompson of Chicago, for: instance.He says he wants a real; American patriotism.Otbers assert | that they are pro-American and not | pro-English.You meet it in the talk on the street, in which we are told that England is a hypocrite and has\u2019 got us into this war simply for the purpose of furthering her commercial interests.We are suspecting that much of this propaganda has Germaa } money back of it; but whether it has | or not, we ought to tell every man who attacks the Allies, and especially unconsciously or imentionally he is engaged in German propaganda.He may not know it, but whether he does | or not, he should keep still.And if he will not keep still tell him that you will take steps to see that he does keep still.\u201cMeetings fer the alleged discus- manipulated by people who speak English with a German accent.ist.Tt is a program we must meet which amounts to this: We are in the midst of war, and whoever undertakes to confuse one\u2019s mind to weaken our sympathies with our allies, or cause suspicion of Great Britain, is an enemy of the United States of America.\u201cGreat Britain is a leader in this movement to recognize the rights of nations.There is something wonder ful in the capacity of England to breed democracies that are loyal to herself.No other nation in the world has done it.Alexander did not do it; Rome could not do it, and Napoleon could not.England has.Look at Cansds, à nation almost as independent of England as the United States, yet from her 8,000,000 people she gathers $00,000 volunteers and throws them in the fight for democracy on the plains of France.\u201d SUMMER CONPLANTS NUL LTTE ONS.At the first sign of illness during | the hot weather give the little

JEWISH STATE IN FAR SIBERIA HATRED OF RUSSIAN BY JEWS HAS VANISHED WITH REVOLUTION The attitude of the Jews in the anti-German countries toward the New Rassia has never for a moment been in doubt.In the twinkling of an eye hatred of Russia or sullen acquiescence in the alliance to which the devil of miltary necessity bas driven démocracy, was transformed into, that trinity of emotions\u2014\u201cad-4 miration, hope and love \"\u2014by which according to Wordsworth, Rumanity lives.There is even among her escaped stepchildren a nostalgia for Russia and a palpable movement back, retarded only by the absence of ships.Imponderables, as Bismarck knew sometimes count more in politics than concrete and measurable .factors, and who can estimate the shy.riad influences by which the old Jewbaiting and Jew-hated Russia was environed?Some of these negatives may now be appraised by their positive aspects.The New Russia has, for example a good press\u2014and the Jews are 3 people of journalists.New Jewish Orientation In 1851 Mr.Punch was righteously indigant with the Austrian Jew dc- cause, according to a Viennese correspondent of the London Jewish Chronicle, they would have nothing to do with the Austrian Joan until they had received the government's assurance that they would be left in possession of their liberties.That they should thus provide \u2018ha!- ters for the patriots of Hungary,\u2019 on a condition of being left free themselves seemed monstrous to Mr.Punch, who in fact, proposed the very next week that, in recognition of the Sultan's services in saving Kossuth from Francis Joseph, a British three-decker should be presented by national subscription to the gallant Abdul Medjid.and should sail up the Bosporus, manned for the nonce by British tars.To me the monstrosity lies in the fact that the financial weapon, recommended by the Jewish correspondent, should have remained so fong unused.A minority must fight for its liberties with whatever weapons it possesses and the only thing in Mr.Punch's article is the assumption that the liberties of the Jews do not count, though Hungarian liberty is holy.In this Austrian instance, however the bargaining was purely local and egoistic.To Mr.Jacob Schiff, the American banker, belongs the glory of the impersonal pioneer of liberty for his financing of Japan in her war against Russia was deliberately belligerent.That he should now declare himself a \u201cvery sbstantial\u201d contributor to the Russian liberty loan and should moreover present a complete hopsital unit to Russiais significant of the new Jewish orientation and disposes finally of the foolish attempt of the London Times to represent him as a pro-German puppet.Loyalty of 6,000,000 Pariahs And his fellow-Jews in America, reacting more intensely than ever their fellow-Americans to the great events in Russia, are they not, as Great Britain just now, that either\u2019 prima Lazarus said, the \u201cintensitive ! mood\u201d of the nations with whom their lot is cast?\u2014have set on foot a national project for presenting Russia with a replica of the Statue of Liberty\u2014a symbolic offering which the new Russia has known how to appreciate.In the great and wonderful London meeting to celebrate the Russian revolution, at the Albert Hall, it fell to me to give the first expression to an open question are being used with | ing rid herself, not only of the Roa sturdy type of German propagand- | manoffs, but of her suicidal poliey of degradiug 6,000,000 of her ablest sbjects.The leaders of the new Russia had indeed, long since come to understand with the old Franciscan Father that \u201cwhatever \u2018a man does unto others he does unto himself\u201d and they have long blushed under the humiliations of their Jews as something that tainted themselves in the eyes of civilization.The loyalty of these pariahs, their devotion to the common fatherland, has displayed itself in many touching forms during the war, and the great fund they are now raising with the same symbolic instinct as their American hrethern\u2014to establish and endow a \u201cpalace of equality\u201d in Petrograd, shows how deeply they have felt their lack of status and how ardently they welcome their inclus- jon in the new fraternity of creeds and races.Their Industrial and commercial genius, given for the first time free play fn Russia, will save her from future German penetration and supply the mising factor necessary to bring her into fine with the West- | ern Powers to whom she Is now al- tied, and who\u2014by an irony of history \u2014she is now destined to liberalize, Stearn Roller Antiquated For not all the \u201cRussian Suppiements\u201d of commercial journalism can gloss over the fact that the steam rolier is a rusty, ramshackle, antiquated and hopefess piece of machinery, and that Russia with her dearth of roads, railways and business capacity, is as il} equipped for either war or trade as she Is rich in every human.snd material potentiality.Not, gifted as Russie Is spiritusily ean she fail to profit by that \u201cim- QUEBEC CHRONICLE.re re

prisoner\u2019s honor when a guard with a gun stands close by.The warden at Great Meadow did not speak to Yhe writer of the gun which some of the guards carried, and several of then may not have been armed at all.But in two cases at least guards were seen carrying revolvers at their belts, and at all times, in a little house within plain sight of the prison entrance, bloodhounds were held in readiness to overtake men attempting to escape.Guards and guns and dogs, in the view of the advocates of self-government methods, make it impossible to regard any system in which they are used to hold prisoners in leash, as an honor system.These weapons of discipline, they say, hold power over the prisoners, not through his sense.of honor.but through his fear of the cons: .quences.The real honor system, ae- cording to this opinion, releases the prisoner outside the walls on their own responsibility.without guns a» cape.WHEN USING Far more effective than Sticky Ply Catchers.Clean to handle, Sold L Nacapiaty and Cenanrs tv \u2014 dogs as caution against attempted © There are a certain number of students of penology who take a middle course in this connection .One of these is Dr.Orlando F.Lewis, general secretary of the Prison Association of New Yory State.\u201cThere is no one honor system,\u201d said Dr.Lewis to a representative of The Christian Science Monitor.\u201cIn Great Meadow you have a wall-less prison, with ag- rlealtural and some industrial work, and with the squads of men accompanied by guards, some of whom are armed and some not.In Colorado you have a system by which she men are allowed ia some cases to go off at least 100 miles from the prison to build roads.In New Jersey 40 \u2018or 80 offenders sentenced to a reformatory work on a farm many miles away.\u2018Then there is the story of Governor West of Arizona, wbo, when the honor system was in its infancy, sent for a certain lifer reputed to be a bad man, and arranged that the prisoner should come to him, in another city, unguarded; the man came, did the work the Governor wanted done, and went back, alone, to his cell to serve out his life term.That was a most radical variation of the bomor me thod.And Judge Lindsay out in Colorado uses stil} another varistion.He turns a sentenced man loose with his commitment papers and tells him to appear at the reformatory door at à certain time, and in nearly all eases Judge Liadeay\u2019s trust le not broken.In Jeffersonville, Ind, the Stats prison, twice during recent yests, has sent out prisoners to fight flood or perform guard or other emergency duty for the protection of the public.\u201cNow in all these varistions of method there ls a single, common sle- ment, and I believe that to be the trust imposed upon prisoners when out of sight or away from direct supervision of the prison authorities or under no few guards ae to make eo cape possible.There sre gradations of this trust in different prisons, and with the same prison.These gradations range from the minimum of privilege granted within the prison, to the temporary releases of men to go on long errands or to camps some distance away unguarded by anything except the confidence of thelr warden in thelr sense of honor.\u201cHonor systems grow omt of the old trusty system.The trusty was chosen by the warden to enjoy privi- feges not granted to the prisoners getierally, for three chief reasons, long residence within the prison, marked intelligence of trust worthiness.The trusty was frequently a stool pigeon, that is, a spy.As the honor system has developed and has included a very much larger number of men, the atool pigeon element has decreased, and the choice of men to receive the privileges has come to be made not necessarily for length of term, good conduct or inteHigence.The honor system has developed so that it now includes all who can be trusted.\u201cThers is, too, what 1 may call the \u2018quid pro quo\u2019 element in the honor system.Great Meadow grants io- creased community freedom.Colorsdo grants both that snd a consider able commutation of sentence, 10 days la 30.Covernor West's early experiment with the lifer gave the man a sudden, unexpected and daszl- ing liberty.Judge Lindsay gives the prisoner the satisfaction of helf-res- pect when he expects it least In return for all these similar privileges under the honor system, the prisoner practically binds himself not to escape and not to break the prison peace.The honor system is a mutual agreement between the warden and his men.It is a personal act of reciprocity.The warden is like a central telephone exchange; every inmate is a wire which runs into that exchange.\u201cTherefore the warden must be a big man.He must have a strong personality.He must be an efficient administrator, as well us a firm beHever in the theory of the honor system.And he must command from the men a certain amount of affection, for men in prison have to focus their attention on definite things much more than do men outside.The warden\u2019s grasp of his prison must be firm, and he must have the power of individuality which will make it easy for the men to respond to that grasp.\u201cBut 1 do not think it is wise to call a system which insures, as a primary requisite, that at all times the warden shall be in absolute control of his men, either personally or through guards, the only system of benevolent despotism.It may s:em to be such a system, but every prison, under any system, is despotic.And in speaking of the new penvlogy the word \u2018despot\u2019 and its derivatives is not a good on: to use.The warden needs to be supreme, not only for the purposes of discipline, but because the men need somethng to tie to, something to look up to.In this respect they are not unlike men owl- side prison.Whole peoples are lel tn look up to certain men.loffre and Hind+nbury are of such *y,>:: Roosevelt is also, and so was Kitchener \u201cThe advantages of the honor system are obvious It devel ns seli- respect among the prisoners, helps them mentally snd rhyrcally, insures better discipline in the institution, and wid:ns the possibility of the prison becoming what it should be, 2 training place for men regard+d as criminals.\u201d \\ The Mutual Welfare Lezgue, es- | tablished by Thomas Mott Osborne, after he had served a term for invest igation purposes in Aubuen State Prison, was beyond the honor system, since it added to the benefits accruing from that system a spirit of community co-operation among the prisoners which to a certain extent remained with the maîter their re- ; ienne.The league was a system of | veli-government which went further than any other prison administrative system toward placing the prisoner entirely on his own responsibility.4 tar, one that - vit See our Exhibit in the Transportation Building, Canadien Nation! .Exhibition, Toronto, Aug.25th to Sept.10th The Car Ahead to oa ons that has bn Tot ches of | Drive whine you will, you are sure to see an \u2018\u201cKightyx wii be out se haspower A \u2018Moreover, isa amooth-running, -ciding family D will accommodate five comfortably | À Tou can $ave your choice in this model of either a four, cylinder engine or a the Pour is 112-inches-the exceptional values, = A demeiistration wil convince you.y Por thoes whe like smaller cars these-ase EUG.JULIEN & CO.LTD, Distributors, 1200 St.Valier St.Phone 6530.Quebec Willys-Overland, Limited ( Wibys-Enight snd Overland Motor Cars and Light Commercial Wagons ui Head Office and Works, West Tosonto, Ont.- The wheslbase of Six 118-inches.3 Both are : Touring Roadsters Country Club $12.0 a certain quantity of Many tles, Costumes, Dresses and other clothing, slightly shop worn, worth as high as $12.00, Saturday, 31 5 As long as the goods last.O FOR $1.95 It Is Incredible, But It\u2019s True On Saturday we shall offer Continuation of Our Grand Inaugurafion Sale thought, had tended to over-empha- size its spectacular features, such as At first this system, Dr.Lewis its court.But now he believed the emphasis had shifted to the voeation- al activities of the leagues, and this promised well for the permanency of the system.This was an example that the self-government system enabled the men to create privileges for themsslves, whereas under the honor system the men were recipienty of privileges from the warden in return for the promise not to make troubls, and not to run away.The one government was from without, the other from within.Dr.Lewis believed firmiy that prisons were developing into a marked likeness to universities.The prison of the future, in his opinion, must be a training school to fit men for worthy lives after they have served their sentences.The prison had been a guard-house for human flabilities long enough.The old-time prison authorities could not save the so-called soul Ite real guards were the men them- ocivet, agement hth À Loi the peisonee by: exesusive crunities.| \"Willie TRADE MARK NEQMTLRLD J.CGIGUERE, Pro.\u2018 286 St.John St, Quebec Don\u2019t Take Any Chances Your battery won't tcl you when you're overworking it or starving it or neglecting it.It will just quit when you have gone the limit.Don\u2019ttake any chanceson reaching the limit.Let us Lest your battery regularly, LOUIS LAVOIE, Telephone 4096.184: Queen Street We are glad to test your battery at any time \\ » A\u201d on à sealed packet is our absolute guarantee that the Tea contained therein is \u2018Pure and Good\u2019.Black, Natural/Green } Steadfast! or Mixed.\u2026.J Refuse Substitutes.PAR RAA EEE = Quebec Skate Mig.& Rep.Co, Rey RIDE ONE OF THE INDIAN FAMILY Big Twin, Powerplus.The machine with the Power.Lightwin, three speeds.Opposed engines weighs 140 lbs.: : INDIAN BICYCLES.Ladies and Gents Roadsters, Gents Motobik i i en ike, with or without Adto Tires Vulcanized Phone 4999.Bicyc::s Repaired.306 St.John St.FRUITS PLUMS, PEACHES, PEARS, RASPBERRIES, i CREAMERY BUTTER.SPECIAL FOR TODAY: 7-lb.Bag of \u201cFive Roses\u201d Flour.58c S.O'CONNOR, \u2014 Grocer \u2014 Corner of ST.MICHAEL AND ST.JULIA.STREETS.'
