It is the most effective way to break a cold and oure grip, as it opens the; pores, relieving congestion. Also loos- ens the bowels, thus breaking a cold at once.

Remarks on Bobby. Upon the introduction of the speaker | of the evening, who made his maiden appearance before the club as a speaker, Mr. Brown remarked as fol- lows: Mr. President, members and friends of the Burns club; the committee in charge of this, our seventh annual Burns celebration have asked me to give a short address on Burns. ) am glad to have the honor of re. sponding to the immortal memory in my own humble way when you con- sider the many elaborate addresses we have had at our previous celebrations. I must thank the committee for ask- ing for a shart address, otherwise I would have found it beyond my ability to respond at this time. The out- lines of the life of Robert Burns are well known, no doubt, to all of you. Born in the year 1759 near Ayr, Scot- land, the son of a poor, but intelligent and pious farmer, his early life was spent laboring upon the farm. In 1736 at Kilmarnock he had published a small volume of brilllant poems written mainly during the preceding vear and a half, including ‘“The Cot- ters’ Saturday ight,” “Hallowe’en,” “The Holy Fair,” “Hoaly Willie's Prayer,” “Address to the Dail,” and addresses to the mouse and the daisy. Success attended the publication and in November he was invited to Edin- burgh where was accepted as the lion of the season. Burns' Marriage. After various tours Scotland, Burns married on the farm of Ellisland, near Dum- fries. After this date his finest songs were written and in 1790 he wrote in one day his Immortal Tam O'Shanter. Farming did not prosper with him and later he engaged in the calling of an exciseman. At the early age of thirty-seven he died at Dumfries. What concerns us herc is the mission of the poet and the songster to his coun- try and ta the world, and in that re- gard, as Wadsworth says, ‘Deep in the general heart of man, his power survives, he came ‘at a period when the feeling of nationality ger of extinction, and he not saved, but succeeded in glorifying idealising it." “Among Scottish tion aof assured to Robert Burn the foremist national songster world. Many of his songs owe their principle charm of the plicity and absolute naturalness words. The best songs of Burns, T think, are ‘Duncan Gray’ and ‘Last May a Braw Wooer. The spirit of purest poetry he has rep- >nted in ‘O Wert Thou in the Could ‘Ye Banks and Braes,’ ‘to in Heaven’ and many others The love that has staod finds fitter Anderson throughout and settled only and songsters a posi- pre-eminence belongs as he is admittedly of humoraus \Ial\ just as good. the test of years nowhere than expression in ‘John CASTORIA For Infants and Children. .The Kind You Have Always Bought ?Bears the = Signature of e, = . = memorative of the 134th anniversary of Robert Burns' birth.

There was neither fortune or title in this man’s pedi- gree, and yet he sprang from the salt of the earth, for he came from that lowland Scattish peasant stock, which was one of the finest stocks that the world could show, if one might judge from its results. The limitations of these men might be marked, but there sprang from them every now and ain one who could voice the feel- ings of his fellow men, and in this | preme. But over and above all this he was perhaps the first he re- mains the greatest inspired pleader for the solidarity of our common human- as ‘He came when poets had forgot, How rich and strange the human lot, How warm the tints of life, how hot, are love and hate. And what makes the Truth divine, and what Makes manhood great.’ | “Then again no nobler watchword | of humanity is demanded by his fore- most advocates than the Inspired vision and prophecy. ‘It's coming vet for a’ that, That man to man the world o'er. Shall brithers be for a' that.’ The Burns Spirit. | “In closing I will say | the Burns' spirit will | glory over the old land, and through- | out the world, wherever the English language is spoken, be it in the pal- ace of the king, the humble cot of the laborer, or in the trenches. where our Scottish soldiers are battling, for the civilization of the world, there will be heard the matchless songs that have so stirred the world’s humanity for more than a century, with the ! sweetest thought of Bobbie T will now that this week hang, like a ask you all to rise and drink a silent toast to him.’ | The singing of “Auld Lang Syne” | bringing the program to a close, dane. ing followed and wound up the even- | ing.

TENDERED ACH OR SUPPER. | Michael Smith, of the Herald, Sur- | prised at New Apartments. Michael Smith, the popular lino- tyvpe operator, was tendered a plea- | sant surprise last evening by his as- sociates of the Herald composing room. The affair took the form of a bachelor supper with card playing and musical selections as entertain- ment. The party was a complete surprise to Mr. Smith who was com- fortably seated in his new apartments on Main street when the members of the Herald chapel descended upon his stronghold. That the invasion was not unwelcome was evidenced by | the hearty reception given his fellow | emploves. During the course of the evening Mr. Smith was presented with a fine picture emblematic of the Elks, of | which organization he is a member. | The invaders on Mr. Smith’s soli- | tude were Thomas Crosby, William McAllister, Thomas Lawlor, William | O’'Brien, Wilbur Edwards, Daniel | Pouzzner, Harold Lindberg.
