CE TRE 1 Dear Mr. Editor--F "Wish to tell yop THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG, TUESDAY, APRIL 17, 1917. BISHOP FALLON SCORES LONDON CITY COUNCIL FOR RE- FUSING $3,000 GRANT To the St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Hospital--A Weak Surrender to Anti-Catholic Prejudice. London, Ont., April 17.--_Follow- Ling the recent decision of the City Council to refuse a $3,000 grant to St. 'Jéséph's Hospital, Bishop Fallon hig' called upon London Catholics to giYe their answer by a special volun- | tary contribution. In a paMoral let- ter he says: "Stripped of Wall pre- tences, this reckless economy on the part of a City Council whose man- agement of the civic finances has im- posed upon us a tax rate of 34 mills, was simply a weak surrender to anti- Catholic envy, jealousy and preju- dice." Not Conducted For Gain. In reply to the statement before the City Counéil that St. Joseph's Hospital was conducted for gain, his Lodrship says: "The Sisters of St Joseph's have been engaged for fifty years in the work of housing home- less old age and helpless infancy, and in ministering to the ills that flesh is heir to, No distinction of color, race or creed has ever been allowed to interfere with their chairtable ac- tivities. Like all other Catholic Sisterhoods, the Sisters of St. Joseph are vowed to personal .poverty; no penny of gain has ever reached an in- dividual member. The poor clothes they wear and the humble fare with which they are supplied constitute their sole drain on their financial resources. What becomes of the gur- plus funds resulting from the person. al sacrifice and remarkable econ- omies of the Sisters of St. Joseph? The answer is very clear. The Sis-] ters have purchased property of Protestants in the open market, and have paid the stipulated price to the last dollar, Protestans architects, Protestant buflders, Protestant bank- ers, Protestant manufacturers, Prot- estant merchants have practically monopolized the profits, ------ . Meagre Payment For Services, "Whatever Protestant money has Tound.its way into the treasury of the Sisters of St. Joseph has been--with a few honorable exceptions--but a meagre payment for services ren- dered, and the institutions which the Sisters control stand to the credit and the benefit of the Protestant city officials, It -is to their .credit- that the property is vested in the Sisters, but they can neither run away with the buildings nor eat the land. Any one would have expected to find in the City Council a' broad civic pride and generous recognition of the un- selfish effort to rebuke the ill-man- nered bigots and bankrupt politicians who raised objection to a small meas- ure of decent justice being rendered to St. Joseph's Hospital."

The great mistake that people make is in not realizing that both of these have the same cause at the root of them, namely, poor and impure blood. Either bloodlessness or some trouble of the nerves will be found to be the reason for abmost every ailment. If you are pale, suffer from 'headaches or breathlessness, with palpitation of the heart, poor appetite and weak digestion, the cause is almost always bloodlessness. If you have nervous headaches, neuralgia, sciatica and other nerve pains, the cause is run- down, exhausted nerves. But run- down nerves are also a result of poor blood, so that the two chief causes of illness are oné and the same, This accounts for the great num- ber of people, once in indifferent health, pale, nervous and dyspeptic, who have been made well and hearty by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, for no medicine ever discovered .is so valu- able for increasing the supplysof rich, red blood and giving strength. to wqrn-out nerves. Men and women alike greatly bhenefif from a course 'of the splendid blood builder and nerve tonic. . It your dealer does not keep these pills you can get them by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. A LEADING QUESTION Call to Enlist Now For Canada's Déténce. The chief question which all men in Canada must ask themselves to- day is, "Am I doing my share in helping the War? If I am not, why not?" Unless the country fully wunder- stands that every fit man of military age is needed, and needed * badly, there will be some who are failing in their duty to Canada. The greater part of the wdrld engaged in the greatest war of al times. "It' is no easy struggle, and, despite the good news which comes from the front, the war is far from an end, The demand for men is so great that all the overseas troops in Canada are being rushed across the Atlantic as quickly as transports can be found for them. Up to the pre- sent the overseas troops have under- taken the defence of the country, but) when the last of them leave there will .be no defence force here, With a view to preparing for this, and being reddy for any emergency which may arise, the government has issued a call for 50,000 men to take up arms for the duration of the war and for six months afterwards to sorve. in Canada aud contribute to the national safety. tir The time to enlist in this force is now. Terms of enlistments, subsis- tence, clothing and equipment are the same as for oversoas service, and sep- aration allowances are given in the case of married men.
