ADVERTISEMENTS, Seasickness and Trainsickness. represents the result of four years , MOTHERSILL'S SEASICK REMEDY careful, painstaking investigation and scientific research, based on scientific p^rin- ciples and careful clinical tests. The secret of its success Kes in the fact that it is not a temporary relief, but it absolutely prevents seasickness by maintaining the I)roper equilibrium of the organs that cause seasickness. The popular theory that seasickness is due to a deranged stomach, a weak stomach, or to stomachic conditions is erroneous. In fact most seasick remedies on the Market are utter failures because they aim to correct- stomach conditions. MOTHERSILL'S SEASICK REMEDY will cure seasickness when all other remedies fail, and it will positively prevent seasickness if taten ii^time. On English Channel] Irish Sea and Atlantic. MOTHERSILL'S SEASICK REMEDY has been through every pos- " sible test that could be made within the past three years. In the fall of 1908, Mr. Mothersill gave a series of demonstrations on the English Channel, Irish Sea, and Baltic. It has been said that MOTHERSILL'S SEASICK REMEDY would prove of DO value in these places, where it would be put to the severest test. We proved, the fallacy of this statement by practical demonstrations, the tests being most successful. Equally fortunate were the more extended results experienced - by Transatlantic parties, such as the International Sunday School Association trip . from, Boston to Rome and back, consisting of 600 persons; the Canadian Bisley • Team, under Lieut. -Colonel Labelle; the American Olym^pia Team and many others. Th6se large parties always comprise many who are susceptible to sea- sickness, who by the use of MOTHERSILL'S SEASICK REMEDY were able to take the voyage without any unpleasant symptoms. In fact the results of these various demonstrations were so successful that they were highly commented upon at the time with long editorial articles by the leading British, American, Canadian, and Scandinavian newspapers! BISHOP TAYLOR-SMITH, CHAPLAIN-GENERAL of the BRITISH forces, says:—"T havp ordered at various times supolies of MOTHERSILL'S SEA- SICK REMEDY and found it most effective."

In the preparation of the first edition of The Canadian Who's Who, the desire has been to make it thoroughly repre- sentative of the leading men and women of Canada, whether resident in their own land or abroad. If, perchance, the biography of some prominent Canadian has been omitted, the error niust not, in all cases, be ascribed to the editor,, inasmuch as som.e gentlemen, to whom, circulars were sent, failed to ans7ver them, and consequently their biographies could not be included. Thanks are due to Capt. Chambers, editor of the Canadian Parliamentary Guide; Dr. Doughty, Dominion Archivist; Dr. Benjamin Suite, Dr. Wilfred Campbell, and other gentlemen for valuable data furnished. Suggestions for future issues, corrections of errors, etc. will be gratefully appreciated by THE EDITOR. Press Gallery, Ottawa, May, igio. ADVERTISEMENTS. P. O. Box 183. Cables—"
