When peevish, erose, listless, pale, sleep, doesn't eat or act na- turally, or is feverish, stomach sour, breath bad; has stomach-ache, sore throat, dia.rhoea, full of cold, give a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs," and in a few hours all the foul, constipated waste, undigested food and sour bile gently moves out of its little bowels without griping, and you have a well, playful child again You needn't coax sick children to take this harmless 'fruit laxative," they love its delicious taste, and it alwayr makes them feel splendid. Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of "Cal.fornia Syrup of Figs," which has directions for babies, chil- dren of all ages and for grown-ups plainly on the hottie. Beware of counterfeits sold here To be sure you get the genuine, ask to see that it is made by 'California Fig Syrup Company."

Four of the vacancies have been caused by the resignation of Conser vative members In King's, N.S, | and in Carleton, Ont., Messrs. Foster land Garland resigned practically un der compulsion, because thy had been implicated in war contract irre gularities In Brandon and in Lis gar Sir James Aikins and W. F narpe resigned for purety political urposes, in the hope of defeating he Liberal party in Manitoba, No fassurance has heen given that these members will not one and all again seek re-election In fact, it is known that both Mr. Foster and Mr. Garland are again out after the nominatiom, and it is credibly report ed that Mr. Foster, who was respon sible for 'the Nova Scotia horse pur- chasing scandal, is practically sure ance that he will not be Gpposed by publ d Parliamentary morals Ih the cases of the vacancies rais "ed through death, namely, in Hamil ton, Restigouche and Prince, PEI, there is, of course, no disagreement, acclamation whenever the Go ment desires i It is plain, however, that in con | nection with the four other constitu encles Sir Wilfrid Laurier would have no right to commit the party and the constituencies to the uncgn ditional return of the former mem bers, The threats of an election in case Sir Wilfrid and the Liberal party do not at ofce agree unconditionally to the proposals made by the Prime Minister are not taken very seriously in well-informed political here. and these vacancies may be Sisk by! by Che Daily British Whig RE . a ee + 8 UJ JO 11 fh SS + { ia u wiGv | a a, KINGSTON, ONTARIO, "ALMOST THERE." import | MONDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1915 George Frigeault wa nstantly I'he 48th Highlanders will form a More than 700 cars of grain were killed and Mr Fdgar Methot fat reserve regiment, under Lieut.-Col. | received at Port Arthur elevators on njured, when a buggy was stru« James Cooper Mason's scheme, the | the C.N R., a record for one day ~ at an I.

SECOND--ecaiise it is the only paper in Kingston® afliliated with the Au dit Bureau of Circulations of Chicago. THIRD--Because it has the largest circulation and is supreme in adver- tising Being an evening newspaper in a field where an evening paper is widely demanded, its circulation must necessarily represent the pur chasing power of the people of Kingston and the territory of which the city is essentially the ready market place. FOURTH---B¢cause of the typographical appearance of the advertisements and the care which is evidently given in the mattér of make-up and po sition FIFTH--RBecause of the carefully planned and maintained cireulation dis tribution facilities. and continuous effort" to have the British Whig placed in the hands of its readers at the earliest possible moment, and vel carrying the latest and most* important news, 8IXTH--Because the British Whig is in all intents and purposes a real "home" newspaper, appealing directly not only to men but to the wo men of the household, who do eighty per cent. of the purchasing of family requirements. SEVENTH--Because the British Whig is recognized by men and women in all paths of life as the standard, competent newspaper of its field. NW Spaperdem congratulates the management of the British Whig upon the fact that the Whig is justly entitled to the honor we have given it of being one of Newspaperdom's "Winning Dailies."" Less than 200 newspapers in the United States have been given this classification, ac- cording to the acid test applied before making our final decision: SANEWSPAPERDOM. - ~ Note.-- The above article is copied from the Nov. 36th issue of "Newspaperdom." an influential New York magazine devoted to newspaper work.
