Sir Horace Thin kott, chairman of the Irish convention, writing today to the Express, declared that in "its gravest crisis, the British empire has etaked its existence on the twofold Irish policy of conscription nd home rule." The present government cannot achieve both, he said. If you would only stop and think how much you would save and help to save the war by adopting the "cash" and "carry" gystom. It cost the merchants thousands of dollars each month in this city alone to have goods charged and delivered, and the consumer has to pay for it all. THE FARMERS CASH STORE is milking more money than any merchants that deliver goods free and has them charged.
