BRITAIN NOT KEEPING FOOD FROM POLAND Sir Edward Grey Declares in Reply to Question in House of Commons. London, Feb. 18.—Great Britain has not refused to allow food to reach Poland, according to a statement made by Sir Edward Grey, the British foreign secretary in reply to a ques- tion in the house of commons yester- day. The forelgn minister added that the entente allied governments had been approached with a request to permit food to be sent to Poland under neu- tral control but that the allies had re- plied they could not consider the question until the various ‘“methods of spoliation” adopted by the Central Powers had ceased. To do otherwise he said, would be merely to supply food to the Germans. Under the guise of a question to Sir Edward Grey, Laurence Gingell, nationalist, made the allegation that pressure had been used by the en- tente allies to dissuade the Belgian government from accepting from Ger- many an offer to re-establish the in- tegrity of Belgium, to restore her in- dependence and fully to compensate her for damages sustained. This brought a blunt answer from the foreign s statement made in question is entirely untrue.” Sir the st to Belgium was also untrue.

The life of a corpuscle is usually six weeks and must be replaced, science tells us, at the startling rate of 8,000,000 per second. Good blood is the foundation of good health and can only be attained through a stomach in good condition. The source of most ills is traceable directly to the stomach, which acts as a power plant, converting the food we eat into blood. Like all machinery the stomach occasionally fails in its duties and requires assistance to put it in proper condition, Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey a product of nature, being made from clean wholesome grain thoroughly malted, is invaluable in assisting the stomach in its important duties, by stimulating the flow of gastric juices necessary for the proper digestion of food. If the stomach is kept in good condition, health invariably follows. I ; Better health awaits you if you take a éfi tablespoonful of Duffy’s Pure Malt Whis- = key in equal amounts of water or milk be- fore meals and on retiring.
