~~ PAGE TEN TOSKI IKEHARA Pays Vist to Kingston After Many Years. | SAYS JAPAN IS SURE THE ALLIES © WILL TRIUMPH OVER GERMANY. His Country Is Making Munitions For Russia~--Has Done Good Work Among The Christians In Japan. "Japan Is sure of a complete vie- tory for the Allies," said Toshi C. Ikehara, of Japan, who was a visitor in the city over the week-end. . Nir. Ikehara is well-known in the ecity, having attended Queen's University from which he graduated with the degree of B.A, in 1896, On Sunday afternoon he paid a visit to Syden- ham Street Methodist Sunday School which he attended while in the city and Superintendent T. F. Harrison called upon him to say a few words. Mr. Ikehara stated that although it was twenty years since he had been in the city he was delighted to be back again and to visit the men with whom he was associated years ago. He intimated that he heard in Japan about the death of the late Lieut. Calvin Day. In speaking to the Whig represen- tative, Mr. Ikebara stated that he was secretary of Yokohama Fire, Marine Transit and Fidelity Insur- ance Company, Limited. He said he had left Japan for the purpose of making a business trip to England for the company. When asked about war conditions, in Japan, be had very little to say, other than that Japan had taken the| place from the Germans which they desired and now they were determin- ed to help the Allies in every way possible. He stated that the Jap- anese Government had sent a num- ber of Japanese aviators to join the French army. The Japanese people are determin- ed that this great war shall result ia a win for the Allies, and for that reason the muntion factories in Jap- an are at the present time manufac- turing for the Russian army," said Mrs. Ikehara. About twenty-five years ago Mr. Ikehara, was compelled to leave Jap- an and his parents, due to him decid- ing to become a Christian. He came to Kingston through a meet- ing with the late Principal Grant. After his graduation from Queen's University he went to the Moody In- stitute in New York, and since that time he has been doing good work among the Christian people of his native land. While in the city Mr. Ikehara is the guest of Samuel Anglin. Rivalry For Market Positions There is great rivalry among the farmerp who attend the Kingston market to see who can get on the square the earliest and secure the best places.

The measure was pro- posed by Minister of War Millerand. Pembroke Factory Burned, broke, Ont.,, Aug. 16.-- The Hardware Specialties. Lid. factory was completely destroyéd by fire last night. WHEAT PIT MYSTIFIED | By the Allies Cancelling Big Wheat | Contract. | Chicago, Aug. 14.--The Chicago | wheat pit---the 'pulse of the world's | grain trade, closed yesterday in fev-| erish excitement following the can-| cellation by representatives of the | Allies of grain contracts aggregat-| ing over two million bushels of] wheat, recently bought for Septem- | ber shipment. ; 1 What word the European buyers] received from abroad remained a| mystery. It was of sufficient import, | however, to cause the foreign buyers | to surrender a profit around ten] cents a bushel, or over $200,000, on| the contracts cancelled, so that they might be relieved of them. Not only were cancellations report. ed by Chicago houses, but some of the seaboard exporters claimed to have closed out all open contracts, in one instance the, United Kingdom buyers re-selling at equal to 28 cents under what the same wheat would cost delivered in Liverpool. Canad- fan exporters also reported cancella- tions and three cargoes of Argenti- na corn were cancelled by Italy. France also resold © wheat in this country. Whether the Dardanelles was on the verge of being forced, which would release Russian grain for Eu- ropean consumption, or whether there had been authoritative infor- mation that the opening of the straits was only the matter of a short time, was a question mueh discussed by prominent grain men. They profes- sed to be "up in the air," although intensely interested in an Associated Press cablegram early in the day from London telling of wide circula- tion of a rumor that the Government had received news of "military suc- cesses closely affecting Russia." The report, it was said, was based on the activity and rising prices of Russtan securities on the Stock Exchange. COL. LYNCH HURT IN WRECK Escaped Hanging and Life Sentence --His Stormy Career. Northampton; Eng., Aug. 16.-- Among the slightly injured was Col. Arthur Lynch, Irish member of Parliament, when the Irish mail of the London and North-Western Rail- way was derailed near Stowe tunnel Saturday. Lord Mounteagle is also reported injured. Twelve years ago Lynch was con- demned to death in London for high treason for commanding as colonel the Second Irish Brigade under the Boer flag in South Afriea. Later the sentence was commuted to penal servitude for life. In consequence of his conviction he could not take his seat as member for Galway. After being twelve months a convict he was released on ticket of leave and finally pardoned. In 1909 he was elected to . Parliament from Clare County. He is thoroughly pro-Brit- ish in the present war. Lord Monteagle's patronymic is Spring-Rice, and he is a first cousin of the British Ambassador at Wash- ington, -- IS RUSSIAN EXILE This Story From East Orange Doubt- less Inspired By Germans. East Orange, N.J., Aug. 16.-- Mme. Catherine Breshkovskaya, known the world over eight years ago as "the grandmother of the Rus- sian revolution," now serving a life exile in Siberia, has been transferr- ed to the far northern city of Yak- outsk,, on the edge of the Arctic cir- tle, according to a letter received from her by Miss Alice Stone Black- well and made public to-day. Mme. Breshkovskaya is 71 years old and is suffering from cataracts on both eyes, so that she camnot read. Her only recreation, she says, is sewing for a few hours a day; and then only on white material. Her banishment to Yakoutsk, least desir- able of all towns in Siberia, came at the end of eighteen months' solitary imprisonment at Irkutsk for trying to escape from Siberia, where she had been sent for life. 300 ORPHANS ESCAPE Fire Menaces Baltimore Home--Pro- perty Damage Was $85,000.

No gum, we believe, ever before had so much care put inte its manufacture. This care 1s to insure the six features listed below. ? ~ The 7th point will not be announced for the present. wt From a Daylight Factory We make Sterling Gum in the sunlight - where everything is spotless. During every working hour, the daylight streams through the broad, high windows of our factory. There are no dingy corners. Cleanli- ness everywhere. This environment, too, naturally has a wholesome effect on our employes. 6 Untouched by Hands But Sterling purity.and a daylight factory need this Sterling 6th point to provide a genuine hygienic safeguard. A company rule makes each employe wear spic-and-span uniforms and caps__and gloves of white. These white gloves are Crowded with Flavor : Crumble-Proof 5 Heat, cold and humidity do their best to make gum crumbly. And they have their way very often, as you no doubt know. * We decided that Sterling Gum must be "crumble-proof." First of all, we gave our attention to flavor. ~The highest grade of pure extracts was naturally needed. After securing the flavor, a still greater problem remained. How were we going to drive that flavor fairly through and through --so that it stays in the gam? Right there was one great stumbling-block in the produc- tion of a high-grade chewing gum. After long experiment we finally made Sterling Gum by a new process. We -- well, this isn't to be a lecture on science. The point is this: No matter'when or where you buy Sterling Gum, you will find it "crumble-proof." You will find that each It is a stumbling-block which we have fick guiskly becories a. velvety-hodiod removed through an exclusive process which . makes the Sterling Flavor permeate each stick -- makes the gum, in short, "crowded with' flavor" -- cool, refreshing peppermint, or cinnamon--cinnamon that is fascinating in its delicious spiciness. Velvety Body -- 2 NO GRIT Next we set out to produce a gum that was absolutely free from grit. r 4 Sterling Purity "Purity" is too often a vague claim. Sterling Purity is an actual fact. That means extreme purity of all in- gredients -- extreme cleanliness of plant and employes. fvesh-laundered 'every morning, That insures Sterling Gum Point 6, "Un touched by Hands." @ Wiax 2 The 7th point of Sterling excellence we are keeping in reserve. We will not make it public for the present. But that 7th point is there for a very good reason. It is perhaps the most impor- tant of all 7 points of Sterling excellence. ¥ Let's see if you find Point 7 in the gam. Just one incident to explain our ideas on the subject. All gums use pulverized sugar__the same pulverized sugar that you put over your berries and cream in the morning. Clean, } isn't it? Of course. This was a matter of refining and re refining the chicle--a long, tedious process. But worth the trouble as every gum chewer' will agree. : So Sterling Gum has a Velvety Body -- NO GRIT. That is point 2. Rather im- portant, too, isn't it? . But not as clean as we whnt i So we Jbuy our sugar in granulated form and do our own pulverizing. The difference is not apparent to the eye, but, nevertheless, it is there. It is attention to details like this which we sum up in Point 4, "Sterling Purity." os ------------------ a ----------. ---- ---------- ts PEPPERMINT AND CINNAMON FLAVOURS Made in Canada THE STERLING GUM COMPANY OF CANADA, Limited Washington, Aug. 16.--The na- RE ture of threatening letters received| Christiania, Aug. 18.--via Lon-| | by British Ambassador Spring-Rice.
