Good business, follow- ing upon the heels of a most. boun- tiful harvest and good prices, a fine Christmas spirit, widespread gen- erosity and charity, an outstanding characteristic of our people. have all combined to make the Christ- mas of 1926 one to be lung remem- bered.

THE MARITIMES AND THE WEST

I

A RENEALING illustration ofthe

temper of many people of tho ‘West, says tho Ottawa Journal, in dealing with national problems is ailorded by the comment of tho Manitoba Free ‘Press upon the ro- port of the Maritime Commission. Alter a few insipid introductory paragraphs evidently designed to pretend that it Wows the question in a ‘broad national way, tho iI-‘rec Press discloses its roni ritilttido in this pnrugraphv-

"There are u number o.‘ recom- mendations in the report m‘ no pur- iiculnr gravity; but the major pro- posaF-thai of a statutory railway rate, with the Dominion treasury paying the freight rato coverud b?‘ the reduction in place of the slilp~ peril-is one which is not lightly to be accepted. lit is a principle cap- ablc of extensive application; and if it. is accepted and blessed by Par- liament, wo shall not be surprised if attempts are made in the future to apply it extensively."

Yet this is the game Manitoba Free Press which in 191T fought tooth and nail against suspension of the Crow's Nest rates, notwith- standing that at the tinm those rnten were losing the railways mil- lions which, ultimately. in the case o! the Canadian National, had to he

That they have so decided docs not make it so, and no amount of shouting can make it so. it is simply ahsnrd to fsay that Canada and Great Britain Jar-e on the same plane of nntlou- ihood or possessed of equal powers, prerogatives and privileges.

You will perhaps wonder w-hnt is coming next when you read ‘about the -work two Russian physicians have been doing.

the meanest skin ailments that af- fect the human race.

Although considered "curable", it breaks out so often that some tvlctims have it practically all the time.

Moat of the skin specialists of past days considered eczema as due to "external impressions upon the skin," nltllottgh they admitted that some skins seemed to, be especially prone to contract the trouble.

That disorders of the" digestion,’ liver. kidneys- can cause an ow,‘ break is nowj acknowledged. Some cases have occurred immediately attern shock or great emotional‘ disturbance of" some kind. l These Russian physicians, recog- nizing that the blood carries ever-y- titing to all parts, and recognizing further that the red corpuscles oi the blood are the food carriers, gut the idea that it‘ they could wash these red corput-acles that they could get rid of the acid nr other,

condition that was (reusing the trouble. I Accordingly they withdrew’ a,

t-tinull quantity of blood, lens than on ounce. treated the red corpusclli es with an alkaline solution, anrli then injected these corpuscles back into the patient again. ' i These injections were given twofi or three days apart. and abouti ten injections in all were given, They report that tho patient, felt no ill effects whatever either at the, site of the injection, or in the body! generally. , They report cases oi‘ chronic‘ weeping ezceina as being cured by‘ this treatment without any local Hllhlit-ation whatever.

You will notice that the amount 0i blood withdrawn and put hack iras but a small tinantity", anti yet the effect. was most satisfactory. I Just how fur these or other ru- search men will go with this blood; corpusclv- washing is just a ques-, tiou, but the results wottlil seem‘ to show great wssibiiititts.‘

it will be good nows to sutierorsi with old skin ailments, who have. tried all the various riiutnteujvgj and even X-rny treatment i, vrithoutl ttvttil.
