Mrs. John Miller, Minburn, Alta., writes: --*I had a very bad cough for three years. I went to several doctors and tried different cough medicines, but nothing seemed to help me. One day a friend told me about Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup, and after using several bottles I became com- pletely relieved. I always keep a bottle In the house, and also recom- mend it to others. Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup has been universally used for over 30 years, and so great has been its Success, it is only natural that a great many imitations have been placed on the market.

Vancouver, B.C, Jan. 19. --"px- tremely fair and highly moral, but deadly dull," is how the Vancouver Sun describes the civic elections un- der proportional representation which took place last Thursday. Re- turns were finally completed late Sunday. The Sun says : "A proportional representation el- ection is an election with the kick taken out, a non-alcoholic beverage, a christening in which the baby can- not possibly refuse to accept the name bestowed upon it. So long as an election is more uncertain than a horse race, you can get"the elec- tors worked up to a pitch of ex- citement, but take away the element of uncertainty and you take away the element of excitement." Only six thousand voters out of forty thousand turned out to cast their ballots. -------- China Wants Raincoats.
