12 THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG. IMIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1920. Stop That Tickling A BIRD OF A FEATHER | a IN THE THROAT u By Using Dr. Wood's Norway Pine : Syrup. That tickling tn the throat sensa- tion is most distressing and causes a nasty, irritating, dry cough that not only keeps you in misery all day long but also prevents you enjoying a good night's rest. Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup, which is composed of the most sooth~ ing and healing expectorant herbs and barks combined with the lung- healing virtues of the world-famous Norway pine tree, will give almost in- stant relief in all cases of this na- ture. i Mr. E. A. Price, Port Carling, Ont., writes: --"For about a month last fall, I had a bad cold and cough and a tickling in my throat. I cough- ed nearly all the time. I tried differs ent remedies and cough syrups, but could get no relief. A friend advised me to use Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup, and before I had used two bottles, my cough was all gone, and gone for good. I have not coughed since." Rr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup is put up in a yellow wrapper; three pine trees the trade mark; price 35c. and 60c. a bottle at all dealers; man- ufactured only by The T. ' Milburn Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont. COMB SAGE TEA IN /"FADED OR GRAY HAIR If Mixed With. Sulphur It Darkens So Naturally Nobody Can Tell, Grandmother kept her hair beauti- fully darkened, glossy and attractive with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever the hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was: applied with wonderful effect. By asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound," you will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe, improved by the addition of other in- gredients, all ready to use, at very | little cost. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair. 1 A well-known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound now be- cause It darkens so naturally and! evenly that nobody can tell it has | Reen applied--it's so sasy to use, | too. You simply dampen a comb or | 80ft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at a time, By morning the gray hair disappears: ~after another application or two, it is restored to its natural color and looks glossy, soft and beautiful. $900,000,000 A YEAR Such is Cost of This Luxury to Italian Workers, Rome, Nov. '12.--Professor Ugo Ancona, formerly under secretary of | transportation in the Italian cabi- met, has just made public a state- ment that while the Italian govern- ment has spent more than $1,000,- 000,000 a. year for bread for the people, the Italian workers have spent $900,000,000 a year on wine alone. ; | The government's expendituf® tor bread has resulted from its under- taking to pay the difference between the.cost of 'producing wheat and the price of bread. In consequence of this the Italian workers have been able to buy bread at the rate of one lira for each kilogram of 2.20 pounds. Professor Ancona says that while the workers refuse to pay more than this, they have no objection to pay- ing four or five lire for a quart of wine, which before the war cost about twelve cents a quart. He asks whether it is just that the Italian government should continue to sup- ply over $1,000,000,000 annually for bread when the people do not grudge $900,000,000 a year for the luxury of wine. The professor advocates that the Italians should eat less' bread and pay what it costs and that they should drink less wine and export more of it, so that the profit on wine would help to pay for importation of bread. The amount of land given over to wheat production in Italy greatly de- creased last year. The disastrous result is that the imports are in- creasing dally. | | | | | | Grape : By Juanita Hamel yourself the benefit of the doubt. flying favor with just ONE !! with a single trophy ? a feather are a fateful combination.

His friend sald, "Take my advice and don't, an ostrich egg weighs two or three pounds you know." What a differ- ence to that most lovable and inter- esting character Chopin, his delichte touch was full of expression and ex- quisite grace, his physical condition debdfred him from every bodily ex- ertion. He was seriously restricted always by a lack of strength, and died at the age of forty. ' Listen to what Chopin said of himself, "I am well and in good spirits, why, I @o not know, but the people here (Vien- na) are astonished at me, and I won- der at them for finding anything to wonder at in me. My manner of play- ing pleases the ladies so much, 1 move in the, highest circles and I do not know how I got there. I am in the world like an E string of the violin on a contrabass." Living during the same period but in the little country of Belgium was de Beriot, a man of different habits, This talented violinist was appointed solo violinist to William I. King of the Netherlands.

The violinist con- sumed the wine and returned the em- Pty case with his card, on which he had written "encore." His patron did not resent this, but sent a second lot with his visityng card, on which he had written the word "finale. Joachim was another-gréat violin- ist who is known as the most dis-~ tinguished teacher and greatest vio- linist of recent times. Joachim in- sulted the Kaiser, for when the Kaiser asked Joachim to teach two of his sons the violin, Joachim re- plied, ** Your Majesty, I fully appre- clate the honor of teaching your sons. but I am very SOrTy to say that all my time is so taken up with talented students that I find it impossible to accept your majesty's offer. Ever after that time Joachim was no long- er a favorite with the Kaiser. Joa- chim was the greatest teacher of his time, he took no pupil at any price who was not already an artist of tal- ent, yet we often think of the words of Jacob Abbott who said "never get out of patience with dullness or stu- pidity," but we are inclined to ques- tion when we read of an examiner asking the following questions and receiving these replies: What is a double sharp?

Marshal Foch, who, it is under- stood, attended some performances | of Wagnerian dramas while in Ger- | many with the French Army of Oc- | cupation, was recently asked--so the | story goes--to take. under his patron- ronage the propo yat-of Wag- | ner in Paris. He declined, saying: | "As for music, I only know the first | two measures of 'Madelon." I can't recall any longer what follows them." Now that women have the" vote, they should set about having them- selves engaged as players in sym- phony orchestras. There is no rea- sod why they should be barred from those positions if they have the neces- sary qualifications. England is ad- mittedly slow about recognizing the rights of women, but the symphony and theatre orchestras of London have been usimg female players for many years. ; The yisit of Walter Damrosch and his New York Symphony Orchestra to Europe this summer was somewhat | of a regal tour. The governmentg of italy, France and Belgium issued of- fical invitations as soon as the trip Was mooted. In France, the Paris Grand Opera House was placed at the disposal of the orchestra, and the ministers of fine arts and public works saw that special facilities. were accorded the musicians by the rail- ways. "Certainly a fugue of Bach takes in « different significance," says | Charles D. Isaacsoh of New York Globe, "if John Sebastian, in his wig and lace collar, is seen smiling at you, As the music is played, it is pleasant to visit' with the composer at his home in Leipzig--there he is, sitting in a great, wide-armed chair, smok- ing a deep-bowied pipe and sipping occasionally at a mug of creamy ale; on his lap two children, several more on the floor, and several more hustl- ing around the pots and pans, help- 8 the young wife to sign for the guests--and finally Fuiciig his music late at night--that +» but | hear, and coming the children sleep; feeling much better thank God." 4 " Have Paid $2.50 For The Same Identical Tie In Toronto"!
