The two nations have made common cause in the defence of freedom and justice. In ithe 'future days of peace may they continue to stand side by stile to at- tain the 1e ideals and aspirations.

E. O. McCormick, of San 'Fran- cisco, replied briefly on behalf of the Americans, thanking his Majesty and expressing the pleasure the visit had afforded the delegates, and how they appreciated it. yi Each member of the delegation was presented to King George and Queen Mary, as well as to Princess Mary, and nearly an hour was spent in informal conversation.

Kingston, Ont., May 18. -- Blood poisoning seems to become more ~ommon from year to year, and the dread of it is ever on the increase. Im the case reported here the doctor {id net seem able to get rid of ft, and after three weeks of suffering the patient was almost 'a nervous wreck. Mrs. Susie Thompson, Smith street, Kingston, Ont., writes: "Karly in the fall of 1916 I had a painful accident. I ran a sliver un- der my thumb "nail, and neglected having it extradted. My thumb fes- tered very badly, in fact my arm was fearfully swollen up to the etbow. It developed into blood poison, and { had the doctor lance it several times, but it failed to get better. With the intense pain and loss of sleep 1 became a nervous wreck, After fol- lowing the doctor's orders for three weeks and not getting any benefit 1 wrote my mother about it. By return mail she sent me a box of Dr. Chase's Ointment. The very first application eased the pain and I slept that night quite easily. I kept using the Oint- ment regularly, and by the fifth day all the swelling was gone, and also the inflammation. "During this time I had become so weakened and ruu down that my whole nervous system seemed affect- ed. I was very nervous and rest- less, appetite became poor, and I had frequent headaches. 1 decided to try Dr. Chase's Nerve Food, and had the same splendid results from this as from the Ointment. Using the Nerve Food internally built up my system and made me strong, while using the.Ointment externally heal- ed my sore thumb. I am now quite well, thanks to your wonderful reme- #es--the only regret I have is that did not begin using them earlier, and saved myself months of suffering, to say nothing of Doctors' bills."

London, May 17.--At a dinner at the British-Russian 'Club of London lant night, the speakers urged the necessity of countering the efforts of Germany to gain ascendeney in Rus- sia. Sir John Norton Griffiths said that the Government, in the work of reconstruction, should not forget to take advantage of the material Rus- sia could place at the disposal of the British Empire. Sir George Buchanan, late Am- bassador to Russia, fervently hoped that Russia would arise out of the present chaos and become once more a great, united country allied to Great Britain, "We must not despair," he said, "but look ahead and wait patiently for the hour of reaction. We must be prepared for that moment and hold out a helping hand to Russia. If Germany is permitted to control Russia's man-power, natural re- sources and unexplored wealth she would become mistress of the east, and, whatever conditions we might impose upon her in the west, she would have won the war." ITALY WANTS US. MEN On Its Battlefrort to Inspire the Na. tion. Washington, May 18.--Italy, in an informal way, has made known to the United States that the presence of American troops on "he Italian front is greatly to be desired. A few thousand men under the American flag, Italian officials feel, would hearten the Italian civilian population and their troops. Italy has an abundance of man power, but desires the inspiration that would be afforded by the pres- ence of American force. / ------------ er dermites « Girl Accidentally Shot, Belleville, - May 18.--~A shooting occurred in Trenton. s A number of young men were examining a revolver in front of a store when one of them, J.
