Bal- four in an address yesterday after- noon before the two houses of the Canadian parliament asserted that the British empire had “staked its last dollar on democrecy’ and that if de- mocracy failed England and her pos- sessions would be “bankrupt indeed.” Mr. Balfour added, however, that he knew democracy would not fail. He sald in part: “I know the democracies of the old world and the new will come out of this struggle, not merely triumphant in the military sense, but strengthened in their own inner life, more firmly convinced that the path of freedom is the only path to mational greatness. I do not believe that anything more unexpected to the outside world ever occurred than the enthusiastic self- sacrifice with which the great self- governing British dominions have thrown themselves into the great con- test ‘at the side of the motherland: “No greater. miracle has ever hap- pened in the history of civilization than the way in which the co-ordinat- ed British demiocracies worked to- gether’ with a’ uniform epirit of self- sacrifice in the cause in Which they be- Heved mot merely their own individual security but the safety of the empire and the pragress of civilization and liberty itself were at stake.” Mr. Balfour charged that “autoc- racy, enthroned in the Central Pow- ers, -;précipitated the war to gain dom- ination of the world Democracies near and far, he added, have aligned themselves in the battle to resist au- tocracy. Premier Borden in introducing Mr. Baltour paid .tribute to the United States. “The people of Canada,” said the premier, “welcome the advent of their great neighbors. into the fight for the liberties of the world. As the streams from both countries, the trib- utarieg of the St. Lawrence, cast their waters into one great river that flows ‘| forever to the sea, so I am sure the 'EORCH; RUGS IN VARIETY Quaiity in Every Thread HERE'S A TIP—Owing to the great scarcity of Porch Rugs of the better grade, order nOW.

COOK. — Pastor of Trinity Methodist Church Given Additional Vacation. The official board of the Methodist church met last evening and voted to grant Rev. Warren F. Cook additional leave of absence for vacation time. The family of the popular clergyman plans to leave for Kansas in July and he may accompany them. The usual month for vacation for the pastor is August, and it was to meet this emer- gency that the board took action last evening. M. L. Bailey and Mortimer H. Camp were ‘appointed a committee to ar- range for the pulpit supply in the event of Mr. Cook accepting the of- fer. In past years it has been cus- tomaty for the pastor of the South church to fill the pulpit during the vacation of the Methodist church pas- tor, the congregation’joining in wor- shipping dn the Congregational church. Possibly this plan will be conducted again this year. Rev. Dr. Dent of New Haven, superintendent of this district, presided at the quarterly con- ference held last evening. THANKS FOR SMITH. The Y.

BRAZIL TAKES FIRST STEP. Chamber Passes Anti-Neutrality Bill on First Reading. Rio Janeiro, May 29.—The Bra- zillan chamber yesterday passed the first reading of the government meas- ure revoking Brazil’s neutrality in the war between Germany and the Unjted States. The vote was 136 ‘to 3. The measure under consideration by the Brazilian chamber was dra{md by the committee on foreign relations. It recommends the cancellation of the decree of April 25, 1917, which de- clared the neutrality of Brazil in the war between Germany and the United States. Under the bill President Braz is authorized to take the necessary steps to make the measure, effective. WENT FISHING, THATS ALL.

Correspondent of the Asso- clated Press).—The old adage of “all work and no play” has its application in war as well as in peace. The baseball season on the western front is in full swing. Under the very shadow of Vimy ridge a great &ame was played yesterday afternoon before an all-khaki audience on a bit of the battle field on which the shel] holes had been filled in and a rough grandstand erected for the offi- ters and other spectators, including General Horne, commanding the first’ British army, who has become an en- thusiastic fan. The game was between teams rep- resenting two Canadian brigades. ‘As a matter of fact ali the teams in what may be called the world war league are now composed of representatives of the numerous Canadian brigades, and all the players are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the American forces to arra.nge for an inter-league series. The second Cansdlan brigade beat the third by the score of 7 to 1. The second brigade had a great left hand- ed pitcher whose delivery the third ‘brigade batters could not solve at all. The third brigade team also had a good box man who formerly played with Ottawa in the Canadian League.' The catcher was unable to hold his delivery well, and this fault accounted for many of the runs scored by the winning side. The game was remarkably free from errors, confidering the battle field diamond on which it was played. All the equipment had been brought from America, including the base bags. ‘As a side show it was possible from the grandstand to -see an occasional German shell ‘dropping half a mile or 80.away. Alfplanes were humming overhead. There was typical rooting by the Canadians. and Americans among the khaki-clad spectators, and much wagering on the game. One subaltern bet enough, he said, to pay his ex- penses on a three weeks’ leave in Paris, but’ he chose the wrong side and his leave was indefinitely post- poned. The games are played twice a week in this strangest of all baseball league. Are Proprietary Fraudulent? Undoubtedly, there may be some that are, but on the other hand, there are many proprietary remedies -that are as standard as any prescription that any present day physician can write, and .in thousands of homes you will find these old, reliable remedies in every day use with satisfactory re- sults. Such a medicine is Lydia E. Pinkhani’s Vegetable Compound, which, for nearly 40 years, has been alleviating the suffering of womankind and overcoming some of the most se- rious ailments of her sex. If you are suffering from any of the ailments of women, just give this medicine a trial and prove its worth for yourself. SPANIARDS DEMAND BREAK Crowd of 20,000 at Madrid Bullring Hears Speakers Urge Diplomatic Rupture With Germany. London, May 29.—A despatch from the correspondent of the Times at Madrid describes the mass meeting at the bull ring, in which resolutions ‘were adopted urging that Spain break with Germany. He says 20,000 were present. The despatch follows: “A strong revolutionary tone rang through all the speeches. Their ef- fect was that the present war is a con- flict between absolutism and democ- racy, and therefore the speakers were heart and soul with the Allies. “The speakers agreed, however, that Spain’s active intervention in the war was undesirable and impossible, owing to the state of impotence in which Spain finds herself after years of misgovernment, but the honor and future of the country demanded an immediate rupture of diplomatic rela- tions with Germany. Many hard things wefe said about the Spanish reactionary party, which has been pro- German throughout, and the mon- archial regime.” A despatch to the Times from Tene- riffe, Canary Islands, says: ‘he largest political meeting ever ‘held in Teneriffe took place under the auspices of the republican party, though men of all parties attended, to show sympathy with the Allies. The meeting enthusiastically demanded that Spain abandon neutrality and range herself openly with the Allies. RAT EORN Kills RatsazMice Newington Jet., Conn, Plantaville, Conn. EALERS.
