In January 1900, T warned Professor Steen that trouble might easily arise with the Bishop and in the college and in the church, on account of developments in his teaching.In February, 1900, the Bishop mentioned to me that he had heard of com- Plainte about Professor Steen\u2019s preach- mg.His Lordship did not tell me, nor do I know, what the complaints Were, or who made them.Ait my request, the Bishop allowed me for- the time be- ob to regard Professor Steen\u2019s mises as inadvertences, not to be reported to the Bishop, but to be dealt with by private discussions.mentioned none of Professor Steen\u2019s sermons or opinions to the Bishop as faulty, About June, 1000, I.understood that op Mills, in the discharge of his then official duties as examining chaplain, had been dissatisfied with some answers received at the ordination ex- &mination.On Oct.26, 1900, I was conference with reference ofessor Steen\u2019s sermons preached in the Cathedral.I refused to go to the conference on the ground that I had Dever made any charges against Professor Steen, and did mot wish to substantiate those made by other persons.On the following day, Oct.27, 1900, 1 Téported to the Bishop my refusal to attend the conference, and my reason for to using.| understood His Lordship © approve of my action in the matter.pon Nov.4, 1900, I told Professor Steen Ï at I was going that winter to depart Tom my usual custom of preaching special sermons about the authenticity and value of the Bible, as it was best for us to keep off that subject, lest people invited to a to some of | meztioned in Consequently, I DAILY WITNESS a college committee appointed on that day to go nto the Steen difficulty.n Feb.1, 1901, on a remarkably moderate and charitable report of the above committee, Prof.Steen\u2019s resignation was accepted.The long silence (after fault had been found with the student's answers in June, 1900), and the moderation of the committee\u2019s report on Feb.1, 1901 (at which date I knew nothing of the real merits of the college part of the case), led me to the conclusion that the committee had not found much to complain of in Prof.Steen\u2019s college lectures.Also, I thought it almost certain that the responsibility of addressing young men at an age when faith and principle are so easily wrecked, would have made Prof.Steen\u2019s college instructions in the main reverent and good, and that the painful lesson he had received would ensure caution in the future.I was, therefore, one of several governors who, on Feb.1, 1901, advocated the retention of Prof.Steen\u2019s services in the college until : à ing-dtips-toteave at once, which would have been damaging to his reputation.This explains, so far as I am concerned, Prof.Steen\u2019s retention till May 1, which is adverted to in your letter.On Feb.4, 1901, Prof.Steen told me that he would leave Montreal after May I (Subsequently her ecommended a clergyman as his successor, who accordingly reached in the Cathedral March 19 and 20, Prof.Steen himself suggesting that he would retire before May 1 if necessary to facilitate the arrangement).He explained to me that our many theological discussions had brought him nearer to my views than perhaps I realized.At his own request, Pave him a kind letter of introduction to the Bishop of New York.On Feb.6, 1901 (in connection with an article in an evening paper charging the Canadian church with narrowness), Professor Steen wrote to me that he \u2018was going to the United States because thought was freer there,\u2019 but that his \u2018reported\u2019 language accuses no one in particular, least of all you and the cathedral.\u201d He recognized that he had \u2018exercised a considerable degree of liberty in the cathedral pulpit.\u2019 You will gather from the above facts that during the year before Prof.Steen\u2019s resignation was accepted, on Feb.1, 1001, various persons bad spoken to the bishop respecting Prof.Steen\u2019s sermons in the cathedral.If any of these persons were the same who had spoken to me, they could have told His Lordship that I was not satisfied with some of Prof.Steen\u2019s pulpit uttefances, and that I was dealing with the case by means of private discussions.You will also notice that the bishop had learned direct from me in February, 1900, that I had theo- Jogical discussions with - Prof.Stem, acts explain an imp À your letter.2 Fo another point in your letter, that mons or opinions of Prof.Steen\u2019s ue faulty, nor did, I substantiate to His Lordship the complaints of others.What I stated on this point to\u2019 various meetings at the cathedral during the first half of April was correct.The bishop also knew from myself, on or about Feb.4, 1901; that I approved of Prof.Steen\u2019s going\u2018 to the United .States after May 1 ; IN THE CATHEDRAL.- On April 1, 1901, I learned with much surprise that persons external to the cathedral congregation, and some members of the congregation, had been organizing for several days, and were quite determined that Prof.Steen must be retained in the cathedral after May 1; and that the consequences would be absolutely ruinous to the cathedral and to myself personally, unless I at once persuaded the bishop to either approve of Prof.Steen\u2019s appointment, or assign some good reasons for not doing so.I reported the matter to His Lordship, who spoke to me against the proposal in terms which I could not disregard.His.Lordship on that occasion.refused to give any reasons.: \"On April 6, 1901, the bishop wrote to me reaffirming his \u2018entire disapproval\u2019 of Prof.Steen being appointed as \u2018assistant minister\u2019 in the catbedral.(On being \u201cmade archbishop, April 15, His Grace promised, out of consideration for the vestry, to give his \u2018reasons.\u2019 On.April 25 His Grace wrote, extending his refusal of April 6, to all plans for retaining Prof.Steen.) On the same day, April 6, I was waited upon by ar influential \u2018Steen committee.\u201d I told them of my anxieties with respect to Prof.Steen in the past; but as they considered it essential to the peace of the church that\u201d Prof.Steen should be retained, I promised to do so, out of dei- erence to the wishes of the congregation, subject to a short terminable contract, and subject also \u2018to the bishop's withdrawing his written opposition.I repeated this promise at the Easter vestry meeting on April 8, and at other vestry meetings, and at the ladies\u2019 meetings.The \u2018Steen committee\u2019 waited upon the bishop on the morning of April 8, and found His Lordship quite immovable.THE RECTOR\u2019S ATTITUDE IN THE MATTER Your letter, in several places, refers to my being \u2018opposed\u2019 and to my \u2018opposition\u2019 t® Prof.Steen\u2019s appointment.If this word, taken from Prof.Steen\u2019s letter, is intended to state that, if the archbishop had assented to Prof.Steen\u2019s appointment, I would still have refused to make it, the statement is absolutely at variance with the facts.My public letter of April 25, to the archbishop, requesting Prof.Steen\u2019s retention, or the: publication of the \u2018reasons,\u2019 expressly stated that my action was-antended to prevent \u2018a general exodus from -the cathedral.\u201d The archbishop\u2019s reply seems to clearly state His Grace\u2019s belief that my request, and my readiness to \u2018nominate\u2019 \u2018(which he recognizes.in reason 3, and again at the end of his letter) were due to distressing circumstances, and that I would not \u2018freely\u2019 \u2018and of my own motion, have attempted to go on with Prof.Steen as my fellow-worker, should think that we were preaching agamst each other.On Jan.17, 1901, T refused to act upon ich, of \u2018course, is correct.Rie, Of COLLEGE PLAN.| This \u2018plan\u2019 was, as you state, that Mr.point | did hot mention \u2018to the bistiop any ser- | EFFORTS TO RETAIN PROF.STEEN | MONTREAL, Steen should continue as professor in the college, and as special preacher in the cathedral, after May 1.This \u2018plan\u2019 was frequently suggested to me about the beginning of April.It was simply a prolongation of the then existing state of things.People naturally asked \u2018If it has been allowed to go on since Feb.1, why not allow it to run on a few months longer, for the sake of the cathedral?\u201d At that date, I knew nothing of the college \u2018reasons.\u2019 Circumstances mentioned above seemed to indicate that Prof.Steen\u2019s college lectures were probably not far amiss.I had acted on that view on Feb.1.To many it seemed quite possible that, baving made one compromise, the governors might, after two months\u2019 reflection, make .a further compromise and allow Prof.Steen to re: main a little longer in the service\u2019 © the college.At any rate, I could not throw aside a plan suggested by persons worthy of consideration, without at least inquiring as to its feasibility.I made no \u2018efforts\u2019; jo i : 7 \u201ceven ] mention the plan formally to any of them.I simply made, personally, and by the aid of friends, a few general inquiries from some of the governors as to whether the feeling against Professor Steen was dying out, or was as strong as before.I gathered, that it was worse.One cause mentioned was the \u2018letter\u2019 you refer to.ther than see the cathedral work broken up, I did make \u2018efforts\u2019 for the other \u2018plans\u2019 but not for the college plan, which I found to be, as I stated at the meetings, absolutely at an end.THE LADIES\u201d MEETINGS.Your informants are correct in saying that I read the draft resolution of thanks to the Archbishop et the ladies\u2019 meetings; but 1 see inaccuracies in other parts of their reports to you.I spoke, as I have often done, of the comfort and blessing of looking back upon the useful lives of two clergymen with whose views I had to be very patient long years ago, when they were under me.Your informants incorrectly .represent me as saying that I looked forward to future work with Professor Steen as a blessing and a benefit to myself.Of course I stated, as I did atthe vestry meetings, that if Professor Steen with me, I would, in the future, as\u2019 in the past, do my utmost to make our work all that it ought to be.Your informants report two large meetings as held on April 9 and 10.\u2018There were no meetings held on those days.But there were tree meetings of ladies on April 12: and 13.Some of the statements at the ladies\u2019 meetings with which I am credited in your letter are exceedingly acouracy.\u2026 Tee notes came as a surprise to me, for I had previously supposed that .Prolgssor Steen\u2019s.college lectures were of -g, better character.Cee Consequently, on April 20, T wrote to the vestry committee the following imti- mation that unsatisfactory news had reached me: \u2018Having regard.to'all the circumstances of the case (which are; becoming more fully known to me) \u2026.: I do pot wish to put myself in the posi: tion of breaking a promise\u2019 (viz.,.to continue to work.with Professor Steen) \u2018made at a time when I was less perfectly informed than I am at present.\u2019 At the select vestry meeting on April 27, and again at the general vestry meeting on April 29, I obtained assurances \u2018that the congregation would \u2018allow me a free hand in Seating with any difficulties: which might arise\u2019 in connection with Professor Steen.After my letter of April 20, the committee's report, dated April 22, was evidently mistaken in describing me as desirous of working with Professor Steen.I did not notice this mistake when the report mever -hold myself personally was read.I responsi ble for every word and opinion in long reports read at meetings when I am - It is sufficient for the chairman to watch that there is no discourteous or injurious language inr ts.\u2018THE.PROTEST AGAINST BE \u2018ARCHBISHOP'S ACTION.Your letter describes those who have: left the church as having done so in order to make \u2018a protest against\u2019 the Arch-| bishop's - \u2018mixing up\u2019 Professor Steen\u2019s teachmg in the college with his teaching in the Cathedral, which appears to you \u2018absolutely unnecessary, wot to say, arbitrary.\u2019 You.will allow me to say that you are evidently under a misapprehension respecting an important Church of Eng-, land princivle.; .\u201cOur \u2018Church\u2019s.official \u2018Letters Testi-) monial,\u2019 \u2018signed by three beneficed clergymen and countersigned by the diocesan\u2019 (under which, for example, I was transferred from.Durbam, England, to Montreal) contain the following words, which you will notice apply to a clergyman\u2019s whole teaching in every place and of every kind, viz.: \u2018Nor hath he at any time, so far as we know or have heard, maintained, said or written, anything.contrary to the doctrine or discipline of the Church of England.\u201d The consecration and ordination vows of Church of Eng-: land -bishops and priests are equally wide in their application.In short, our church assumes that an honest man can- pot have two minds or two hearts or two systems of theology.Bishops and rectors are bound to take cognizance of | all that they know, or have heard, about a clergyman in all places where he ministers.To the Church\u2019s eye, Professor Steen\u2019s teaching in the college and in the Cathedral are not two, but one whole.Consequently the \u2018arbitrariness\u2019 in this particular, seems not to lie with His Grace, but rather, with those who would put asunder what the Church has joined together.Your letter describes the \u2018protest\u2019 as \u2018consisting of the withdrawal of persons ; the Cathedral, and \u2018the breaking up and scattering of a united and prosperous congregation.\u201d This is a serious | protest to found upon a.theological mise rector THURSDAY, MAY 30, Seiten were allowed by the Bishop to go on of l'esiiferenés Pep oiled \u201cYo\u201d the | THe \u2018Sbesich was\u2019 employed larg 1901.to inform his subordinates in the Cathedral and the financial warden, that he must have the privilege of suffering first, if it is God\u2019s loving will that suffering must come; the salary of the rector (who is a poor mam) must be the first to fall into arrears.\u2019 I did my best to restore the Cathedral] and support the Mission Fund, instead of having my own salary increased in bygone: prosperous years, when neighboring rectors were receiving well-earned advances.I never spared myself in work.I had a fellow-worker who helped me, as you all know, to be self-deny- ing and.charitable;.God took her, lest the gentlest\u2019 spirit should be broken by your \u2018protest.\u2019 It cannot cause \u2018her a tear now.For \u2018seventeen years I have labored to extend \u2018the constitutional powers of the laity in our church and diocese.I assisted «Archdeacon Davidson \u2018in obtaining \u2018for women their ancient right to be POP Ok FOBVETIR Risen!

combined movement for the destruction of sea-lions, which are believed to be the inveterate enemy of salmon and other food-fishes.The last Oregon Legislature passed a\u2019 bill offering a bounty of $2.50 for each sea-lion killed in the waters of the state or within one marine league of the Oregon shore.Since faulty wording of the bill renders the fund set aside for the purpose.unavailable, the Fishermen\u2019s Protective Union has raised a fund by private subscription to hire men to shoot the lions at their breeding: grounds.How .many salmon each of these mamrhals kills each day is purely 8 mater of conjecture.The lions are numerous at many places along the Pacific coast, but their favorite rendezvous appears to be in the neighborhood of the mouth of the Columbia tiv- er.Countless thousands of them con- egate during the breeding season at Seal Rocks, a few miles south of the Ti- kamook Rock Lighthouse.After lear ing the rocks at the close of the breeding season, the lions are even more voracious than usual.Countless numbers of the lions gather off the mouth of the Columbia river and the sands at the jetty are black with them during the warm hours of the day.on Commercially, the sea-lions are of little value, not enough to make the killing of them profitable.This fact, coupled with the extreme difficulty in securing the carcasses of the animals\u2014as the lions take to the water as soon as they are shot\u2014makes the hunting of them a pre carious means of livelihood and renders it absolutely necessary that a bounty be paid if the lions are fo be exterminsted.The hides, which weigh green about sev enty \u2018pounds, sell for one-half cent 8 pound.The whiskers of the male sell for about fifty cents.A vast amount of valuable fishing-gear is destroyed each year by the lions.À big male lion, while in ardent pursuit of a salmon, will become entangled in a gil net or trap, and before it can possibly be released will, hy its desperate lash ings and biting, tear the web into shreds.> DR.A.W.CHASES OF.CATARRH CURE \u2026 25c.is sent direct to tbe diseased parts by the Improved Blower.Heals the uloezs, Clears Lo oe assages, stops dreppin

\"hibit at the Victoria Rink.\u2019 LIST OF THE PRIZE WINNERS\u2014A 00D ATTENDANCE OF SPECTATORS.The second annual bench show of dogs, under the auspices of the Montreal (znine Association, opened.yesterday at the Victoria Rink, the attendance being very fair, especially in the evening, when the rink was well crowded.3 dog-show at the best is a noisy entertainment, and this one is no exception to the rule.The deafening chorus of barks, whines, yelps and howls which assails the visitor on entering is rather overpowering at first, but as the ear becomes accustomed to it the racket is not so noticeable.The reasons of so much dog-music can be said to be two in number\u2014some of the dogs bark because they like it and seem to know that such exercise is good for their lungs\u2014the others, because they are undeniably home-sick.\u2018The latter especially do not appreciate the interest.taken in them by the onlookers, and appear to wish, as no doubt they do, to be taking à run outside with their masters.Taking it altogether, this year\u2019s dog- show is a good one, and should attract many do fovers.There \u2018are 351 classes mentioned in the official catalogue, in some of which, though, there are no entries.English foxhounds make a good display, as do also the St.Bernards, the Newfoundlands, _wolfhounds, Great Danes, bull terriers, spaniels and others.The collies, too, are well to the fore, and show some fine imens of that | attractive, if somewhat treacherous, breed.\u2019 : The judges, Messrs, Harry Lacy, of : Boston, and.Mr.James Lindsay,

Eton jacket is seen more than any other style of coat, and this in spite of the assertion that large coats are more fashionable.Next autumn may see a revolution, but for the time being the Eton is the correct thing; made with pointed, square or round fronts and short in the back, with a collar or without a collar, of \u2018silk or cloth, or any material, it matters not what.The bolero is more fanciful, more in the line of trimming, and .is made unlined as a rule, of lace, passementerie, cut work (this lined, of course) or embroidery; sometimes of velvet with rich embroidery, sometimes of cloth with braiding, sometimes of accordion- plaited chiffon or mousseline de.soie, with bands of guipure, round in.front or with long points, always effective, and & \u2018most useful and economical fashion, economical, for it can be worn with a \u2018waist that might otherwise be impossible on account of a bad cut or old age.the.bolero is always smart, and there are at the moment many of these jackets to be found at low prices, made of heavy lace, of batiste, embroidered, of lace outlined with gold thread and of jetted passementerie.: When a skirt is trimmed: with several ruffles and flounces it should not be quite so wide as though it were to be plain, for the flounces will give greater width and it must be most carefully fitted, for flounced skirts,unless most carefully looked after, are unbecoming to the figure.The.fulness in the flounces also demands attention, and should be ranged so that there is much more in the back than on the sides or front.Oddly enough, most of the lace gowns are now made of the plain all-over lace in preference to the flounces, and when the flounces are used they are sewed on a most cearefully cut and fitted net skirt that is worn over a silk or satin lining.The price of foulard silk is often less than the new designs in muslin and wash fabrics of any description,it is very nearly if not quite as cool, and possesses that most desirable attribute of not having to be laundered and of looking quite smart even after a season of hard usage.There is a-wide range of price in these silks, but there are many cheap ones which are most desirable.They are not of as fipe a quality, the designs are not the newest, the color is not the latest, but exceedingly smart and attractive they are, and make most charming cos- tomes.The dark foulards for hard wear, travelling, etc., are exceedingly simple in construction.The skirt is not trimmed, the lace revers, cuffs and collars, when lace is used, cre made so that they can be taken off and cleaned, and there For muslin and summer gowns in general | EIA.AN EIR EF.From SATURDAY, june 1st, \u201c THERE WILL BE\u2014 \u2018 A Discount of 9) Percent Trimmed Millinery.Arail

OMILLINERY.The sailor hat worn in New York.at the present moment is a most elabordte affair, but later there will be a return to the style that has only the plain band\" and is finished in every respect like the \u2019s sailor.The trimmed ones that aré now worn are made of fancy straw with.a medium width brim, short at the back, with low crown, and trimmed with black velvet ribbon and bunches of small flore: ers, like primroses, cowslips or smal}: poppies.Some of the hats also have: the brim at the side turned up, show-° ing underneath a black velvet bowy Large flat hats are exceedingly smarty: and now that they are so universally \u2018to be worn seem much more becoming.The crowns are low, round and of good wire.The brims are wide in front and at the sides, gradually growing smaller at the, back, and are covered with folds of chif- ion, tulle or mouseseline dé soie, and ocy, casionally are covered with long ostrich: feathers.One favorite style of flat hat: bas the brim quite narrow, and -the: feather encircling the.crown falls partly.over the brim.Black hats are always fashionable, but white, grey and all light colors are, considered very smart, and often the hat is made to match the color of the gown exactly, the exception being\" when a strong contrast is worn, and the red hat with black or light tan is\" always in favor.\u2014Condensed from the \u2018Catholic

of mechanics in Great Britain a few years ago, On the whole the men have go far gained their point with regard to rates of Pay and shorter hours.To some extent the employers have been put fo trouble and extra expense, but business is pressing and profitable, and the tendency of capital to combine has.made it less resistent than it might bave \u2018been under settled and severely competitive conditions, Changes must, however, supervene which will reveal the \u2018real problem.If employers can so ar- renge their undertakings as not to lose by shorter hours and increased wages, the men will have gained an advantage.But in so far as higher Pay, means increased cost of production, this must be met by the consumer, and will\u2019 be governed in the long run by, the law of supply and demand.Concerns which have granted higher wages will be at a disadvantage as compared with those which produce under untrammelled conditions, and unless the former output is maintained the reduction of bours must increase the disadvantage.This difference must tell sooner or later in the decay of business and the dismissal of bands.One effect of artificial interference with the cost of production

port did so, fear without sufficient reason, surmised at Ottawa, because it was not the Canadian flag, he was right in that view, and was doing us a good service.The true \u2018Canadian flag we have hardly ever seen flying.The true Canadian should have the arms of Canada and nothing else on the fly.It is a poor device, but, such as it is, that is it.There should be no white spot, no wreath of varied flowers and leaves, no lion, no crown, no beaver, nothing but the arms, Moreover, it.should be the Canadian arms, which it never is.Strange to say, on no flag and nowhere else is the true Canadian escutcheon ever seen.The escuteheon of Canada consists of the arms of the first four provinces, in the four quarters.This haa never been altered by authority, yet even on the letter paper of the publi¢ departments and of the premier\u2019s own office it hag been departed from by the introduction of the so-called arms of all the other provinces.-| Not only is the escutcheon thus paraded

way, grave institutions go sufficiently into this child\u2019s play to arrogate bearings to themselves which were never granted them by the Herald\u2019s College.But no ong can question that flags are important.Flags are necessarily matters of heraldry, and to convey true meanings should follow its rules.We shall be glad to see the day when the whole menagerie of our provincial arms shall be banished from our Canadian flag and replaced by a simple emblem which all men will recognize and understand as representing Canada.That emblem should be a golden maple leaf, -\u2014\u2014 , Mr.Rolland made a very apposite criticism on a resolution before the Business Men\u2019s League, urging the City Council to find money to clean up the streets and the lanes, whose present condition \u2018brings reproach on the city in the eyes of all visitors, and is thus -mak- ing it a-by-word.for untidiness the world over.He said \u201cthat such a resolution would only.advertise the city\u2019s nastiness s0 long as, when the council took the Mecessary steps to carry out the advice thus given, involving a vote in îts favor by the property-holders, only three votes were polled in the business werd.This rebuke was \u2018the more stinging as the vote was for fire protection and the ward in question was the very one which had been recently swept by fire.It would not have done any good to have withdrawn\" the resolution on this account, utterly as the facts put it to i It is Just as well to look unpleasant facts in the face.- The fact is that our community has not yet learned the very beginnings of responsible self- government, Probably not two percent of the voters distinetly resolved not to go to the polls at that polling.Probably, à large majority intended to vote.But the day came and went without their taking note of it, and when it was over no doubt they reproached them- belves.There was.no notice of it hanging among the memoranda of their ap- \u2018Ppointments.\u2018They had never looked up Where their poll was.There was no propaganda as \u201cthere is at election times, o do all this for them, and consequently How any say that interest in the prohibition plebiscite We cannot see, seeing\u2019 how vastly better the electors urned out to Vote against their own firinking privileges than.to.protect them- \u2018selves against fire.What was rendered obvious; however, Was that even our one can, after such a result, find time in business hours to meet to discuss the welfare of the city, need educating in the matter of self-government.The referendum is a grand engine of self-government for a People which takes en interest in its own affairs, if such a community there be on earth.In most countries it only serves to prove that people deserve to be the prey of interested schemers.It having been thus glaringly shown that the people need training in citizenship, the Business Men\u2019s League finds a fine task cut out \u2018for it on the next occasion when a pub- Tie question is submitted to the voters, namely, the task of pointing them to their polls.Unless somebody does this the people may as well flounder on and leave the advocates of devouring esr- Porations to mismanage their affairs.\u2014 The last census of the several Australian colonies hag just been completed, and the result of the combined returns of those colonies, now termed states, which form the Commonwealth, is a little disappointing.The increase dur ing the last decade is less than eleven percent, the total pépulation being now about four and a Half millions, The rate of natural increase alone should have been greater, and this, of course, includes the increase owing to immigration during prosperous as a whole for some years, as has been,

The exhaustion of the gold mines, together with the decline in the wool trade, left Eastern Australia without attractions sufficiently strong to draw immigration half way around the globe, in the face of the inducements held out by, the prosperity apd progress of the United States, only three thousand miles away.The opening up of Western Australian gold fields added little to Australia as a whole, as the miners drawn thither were largely, from Victoria and the other Australian colonies.The Australian provinces made the great mistake of adopting protection as a remedy for their depression.This involved commercial barriers against one another, as well as against the rest of the world, and their trade naturally suffered from the effects of a policy so restrictive, The population of Victoria, outside of the city of Melbourne, shows an absolute decline during.the decade.New South \u2018Wales, which alone among the colonies maintained a free trade policy, shows \u2018a feir increase.of about

tariff, made arrangements to establish factories in Australia.If that be the case, it is clear that the Canadian manufacturers believe that the low tariff will be effective as against them.Of course, the transportation of machinery from Eastern Canada across the continent and across the Pacific must in itself constitute a heavy, tax upon the importation by Australia of Canadian machinery and implements.MR.BORDEN IN ONTARIO.The new Conservative leader, Mr.R.L.Borden, received a hear'y welcome in Toronto, which returns a full Conservative representation of four members to parliament, and is the very citadel of Conservatism in the Dominion.He deserved \u2018the hearty \u2018reception, the congratulatory words of his associates, and the encouraging applause of his audience.He has undertaken an exceeding ly difficult task, and although the prize at stake may be large, it can only be secured at great sacrifices in\u2019 private life.And the new leader, Mr.Borden, is entitled to the special consideration, for he accepted the office not when the fruits of victory were about ta be gathered, but after a defeat in which older and more experienced leaders had failed and fallen, and when the hopes of the followers were temporarily crushed.There was something in the situation which could not \u2018but evoke sympathy.That Mr.Borden is an able, industrious man, his successful career at the Bar amply proves, and his career in the House of Commons has.certainly been worthy of him, During the last parliament he was à loyal lieutenant, and.his one session as leader of the Opposition shows that he is not lacking in qualities that are of service to the House and to the country, and tend to success in the highest positions of public life.He has shown a disposition to play the political game in a clean, manly fashion.As the new Conservative federal leader Mr.Borden Was accompanied on his visit to Ontario by Mr.Monk, the Englishespeaking Conser- vätive leader in Quebec.On his first appearance in Ontario Mr.Borden was able to make a strong appeal on behalf of the local Conservative leader, Mr, Whitney, and his party, as the.Ontario elections will -be held within\u2019 the next year, perhaps within the next six months, Cautious as Mr.Borden is by nature, he was able to speak most confidently of the prospects of Conservative success and the return of Mr.Whitney and his colleagues to power as a result of the coming elections.The activity of the political leaders and orators of both sides of politics seems to indicate that the Ontario elections will be held during next autumn, and in that event the extraordinary law providing for an extension of the life of |.the present legislature will not be taken advantage of.Mr.Monk held out hopes that the next federal election will prove that Sir Wilfrid Laurier\u2019s Popularity will be no more permanent in Quebec than was that of Sir George Cartier or of Mr.Mercier, whoin Mr.Monk\u2014probably to the astonishment of Ontario people\u2014 seemed to regard as the greater man.\u2014\u2014 INCREASE IN THE WAGES OF ARTISANS, The recent labor troubles at various Places in the State of New York have led to inquiry into the rate of wages prevailing in the trades in which the majority of the artisans of the country, find employment.An examination of these statistics shows that there hag been a pronounced upward tendency in the prevailing vates of wages in nearly all trades.In some cases wages have increased, in others the hours of labor have been lessened, and in many cases both conditions are present, so that the workingmen, as & rule, receive to-day more money, for less time employed than wag the case twenty years ago.The artisans engaged in different branches of the building trade have always heen among the.best Paid, especially thosa employed in the cities, where the work generally, requires the highest skill and greatest despatch, In New York at present the union rate of wages for bricklayers is $4.40 a day of eight hours, with half time and half pay on Saturdays, Masons working cn the fronts of buildings in the LUSY season often make as much as $1.10 an hour.Those who enjoy such wages have as compared, for instance, with the average brain toiler what may be vâlled a very soft snap indeed.That it ig possible to keep the hungry millions out of it is one of the worst of tyrannies.In 1883 masons worked ten hours a day and eight hours on Saturday for four do) lars a day.According to the New York \u2018Post,\u2019 other prevailing wages, all minimum, in the building trade for eight hours a day are as follows: \u2018Marble-cut.\u2018 ters, $4; marble-carvers, $4.50 (boih of \u2018which will be increased 50 cents a day \u2018after Aug.1); painters, $3.50; carpen- YB yh in THURSDAY, May 30, 1901.Ny \u2018ters, $4; plasterers, 84.50; roofers and \u2018 metal-workers, 83.75; steam-fitters, $4- tile-layers, 84.50; hod-carriers, 22.65.\u201c

pg seen that as a rule there has been a marked increase in the money earned while the week\u2019s work has been shortened by fourteen hours.There has been & more marked increase in the earnines of mill operatives.Prior to 1519 the average earning of an operative m à cotton mill was 8125 a year.In 1840 the rate had risen to $175, and in 1883 to 8287, besides a lessening of the hours of labor.A statistician has collected the wage figures of one hundred establishments in twenty-two different industries in the United States for a Period of forty years, that is, from 1850 to 1890.He found that the average annual earnings of each man was $247 in 1850, $335 in 1860 $375 in 1870, and only $348 in 1880, but by 1890 it had risen to $484.Whey our Own census returns are compiled and published they

and the result has only been obtained at the cost of both time and money, It 18 quite certain, however, that we must remain on the watch, ag there is evidence that renewed attempts will be made to

enclosed our annual subscription to the Citizens\u2019 League, We must say that you have done very good work in closing these low class theatres; lave two of them near our place of usiness, and we know what they are; we called them \u201cThe corridors of hell\u201d; they should be closed altogether.At night, between the hours of eight and ten we have noticed quite a number of Youths going in there, What they learn there you can imagine.It ig not so much the songs, dances and high kicking that will turn the poor little fellows heads as to be in contact with women of bad reputation, to say nothing mo who distribute \u2018liquors of all kinds, an whose conversation is far from moral, \u2018We think that it would be a ve ood idea to have all girls banished from ouses retailing liquors; it is mot their place at all, and they are the cause of immorality \u2018in nearly every case.After the closing of the musical theatre sa- oons, it would be of a good effect to start another campaign

\u2018Some amongst us are American born end owe full and complete allegiance to the United States, but I believe the greater -number are, like myself, Canadian citizens, either by birth or by adoption, and owe their allegiance to the flag of their own country.Nothing, however, in the rule was ever intende to incite any one of us to become false or disloyal to his own country.For us it simply means that whilst being faithful to our King and to our flag, it is our duty to preserve.that friendly spirit for our American brothers which our past association, with -them-in the \u201cur: danger must have aroused Hour \u2018minds, and this we certainly intend doing.| Ag to \u2018encouraging the spread of universal liberty, equal rights and justice to all men,\u2019 it is a suggestion which will find as proper an application with us as it would in any part of the United States, and perhaps more so.Let us Lope that love for liberty and equality will prevail in our free Canada, and that some day the war of races and thie conflicts between religions will be looked upon as a thing of the past.ACROSS THE LINE.New York, May 30.\u2014In spite of wet streets and every indication of

29.\u2014Bushels of small green and black lizards caused the train which conveys freight from the Stoning- ton line steamers to Boston to come to a dead standstill just this side of Bolton, Conn., during the heavy thunder shower shortly after midnight on Thursday night.The train was long, and as it puffed slowly up the grade through a marshy piece of land after passing the Bolton station on the New England division of the consolidated railway, the wheels of the locomotive began to slip, and finally, when no further progress could be made, the brakes were applied to prevent losing ground.At first the engineer and fireman thought the downfall of rain was.causing the difficulty and the sand box was opened wide, but to no avail.Then the crew of the engine jumped off and looked about the wheels with a lantern.They found the rails covered with a\u2019 slippery matter, while along the track for 300 ards ahead were myriads of lizarda.hey lined both rails and as the locome- tive came along were crushed.The train hands went to work with shovels, and after a half hour's work cleared the track of the lizards.The men told the story on their arrival here, and said they thought the reptiles came down with the rain.frre THE MOSQUITO NUISANCE HARTFORD METHOD FOR EXTERMINATING IT PROVING SUCCESSFUL \u2014 Hartford, Conn., May 30.\u2014The Hartford Board of Health 1s endeavoring to

His university career was distinguished not less by the enthusiasm of his'student THE LATE COUNT WILLIAM BISMARCK diversions than by his remarkable career as \u2018a duellist while there.\u201d One of his duels, in which he was seriously wounded, caused his life to be despaired of during \u2018the six weeks which followed.At the comparatively early age of forty- three he was appointed to the important post of Konigsberg, a significant favor rom the Emperor, which gave the greatest satisfaction to his distinguished father and the family.On March 12, 1895, he was appointed.to succeed Count Stol- berg Wernigoïode as president.of the provinée of Kast Prussia.Four days ater he made his first appearance in the Reichstag, - astounding everybody by his remarkable resemblance to his father.He was tall and commanding, the shape and contour of his head and shoulders, his demeéanor of extreme haughtiness and eccentricity in gesture being, the exact facsimile of those of the Iron Chancellor.His maiden speech was a fiasco, and, as a member of the Reichstag tritely remarked after that performance, \u2018Only one thing is lacking\u2014genius\u2019 He leaves four children\u2014three daughters and-a son, of whom, by his own expressed wish, the German Emperor became godfather on May 29, 1896.J re > FOUND IN A CELLAR IN BIRMINGHAM.\u2014 London, May 30.\u2014A sensation has been caused at Birmingham by the dis covery oË thirty-one bodies of infants in a \u2018cellar beneath an undertaker\u2019s\u2019 establishment.The bodies: were in various stages of decomposition and huddled tô- gether in soap boxes.The establishment was conducted by a widow who to-day was charged with causing the infants\u2019 deaths.The prisoner was remanded.\u2014pnma\u2014 A WET SPRING LAST TWO MONTHS BEAT THE RECORD.New York, May 30.\u2014Mr.Emery, forecaster of the local weather bureau, finds from his records that the current May and April have been the wettest two spring months ever recorded here.Thus far in May the rainfall has been 6.97 inches.The rainfall in April was 6.82 inches.\u2018The only time that can compare with this dreary spring was during 1874 when the rainfall in May was 6.58 and in April, 7.02, the total for the.two \u2018months being a little less than the drenching New York has received this spring.: Among a number of despatches to the \u2018Tribune\u2019 one from Philadelphia says that the entire month of May in that region has been one of rain and cloudy days.Out of 28 days there have been six clear ones, 19 rainy days, and four classed as partially cloudy.This beats the record of May for the last thirty years.The rainfall recorded up to to-day, is 3 3-4 inches, almost three-quarters of an | inch above the average for May in.the past.A NEW YORK MYSTERY.New York, May 30.\u2014The almost nude body of a man, with throat cut from ear to ear, hands ; y L body covered with cuts, drifted in with the flood tide at Coney Island to-day.The cuts may have been made by the propeller of a steamer.From the drifting ashore of the body on Coney Island the police are inclined to believe that it may have been thrown overboard froin some incoming or outgoing ship.There is nothing about the body which at present gives promise of affording a clue to its identity.| OXFORD COUNTY ALLIANCE, Woodstock May 29.\u2014The Oxford county branch of the Dominion Alliance \u2018has been called to meet in convention here on June 15 to appoint delegates to the pru- vincial \u2018convention at Toronto in July, and to recommend what action shall be taken in view of the approaching provincial elections.\u2014_\u2014 MR.BORDEN BANQUETED.Niagara Falls, Ont., May 30.\u2014The Hon.R.'L.Borden, leader of the Conservative party in the House of Commons, was anqueted by the Borden Club here last evenjng.: \u2018 after a brief illness.He was born in 1852.| +o4+c+o#ot+o+o+04+04+0404o40t0 0404 40H0H04040 4040 H04040404040H0 40404 backed off and the.c \u2014\u2014\u2014 404040 ELECTRIC bi Comm ADVERTISEMENTS.24 +040404o404 >> SHADES.Largest Stock!

advertisements of an indecent: character.The Rev.Father Quinlivan of \u2018St.Patrick\u2019s Church,and the Rev.Father Strubbe, of St.Ann\u2019s, both gave their opinlon as to the tmmorality of the publications, which were produced in Court.Mr.J.C.Walsh, speaking for the defence, showed that Miss Milloy was not liable for all the literacure which happened to be in her store, which she had worked

for tne Board oË lradé, and which was introduced to.the:Harbor Board by Mr.Cratliern.\u201c- Mr.Milés also reminded the commissioners that it: was the fix principle of the trade organizations th; no harbor property must be alienated.Mr, Arthur J.Hodgson, chairman of the Harbor and -Navigation Committee of the Board of Trade Council, explained to the commissioners that after going very carefullyinto the question of cost and the convenience of trafic, the.whole; trade had come to the conclusion that two elevators were necessary To serve the central part of the harbor, and that the situations shown .in the Jamieson plan were unquestionably the best for efficient service to all the wharves.The cost would not exceed $1,000,000, all the buildings to be of fireproof construction, and it would be most unfortunate if any of the money granted by parliament for elevator building were diverted.Mr.Alex.McFee assured the commissioners that business was being diverted from this port because of a lack of terminal facilities, and because of a question of rates.As a grain man he saw great difficulty in increasing trade if grain could not be transhipped immediately from the elevator to the ship.Past experience had shown that when a\u2019 shi was berthed, she.would not move until loaded, excepting under very exceptional circumstances.If, then, only half the wharves were served with one elevator as would be the case, the grain would have to be lightered to the ships berthing at the other half, and a lighterage charge would be a tax the traffic could not stand.The elevator facilities must therefore be concentrated at one point.An elevator at Windmill Point or anywhere but where the trade organizations recommended would be a grave error of judgment.Mr.L.E.Geoffrion, president of the Chambre de Commerce, said that the body he represented approved unanimously of the viéws already expressed.He considered that building the two eleva: \u2018hors so as to fully supply the central part -of the \u201charbor: wis the: best: policy.= - Mr.H.D.Metcalfe, president of the Corn Exchange Association, said he understood that fifteen or sixteen steamers could berth at the new piers when completed, and that five or six would be wanting grain every day.Two elevators were absolutely required.They would be especially useful to the railways and induce them to bring more grain here, The Grand Trunk was bringing down from Midland two.or three million bushels of grain to this port, and the lighter- ing was costing half a cent a bushel.As the railway was getting only three cents for the whole distance from Midland to Montreal, it would be seen that elevating directly into steamers from the -ele- vators would be a great saving.Mr.D.A.Witt spoke.for the shipping interests in the same sense as previous speakers, strongly insisting upon the un- \"wisdom of alienating any harbor property.Mr.Robert Mackay, president of the Harbor Commissioners, did not reply very encouragingly: to the advocates of: two elevators.He said that no plans had really been.considered, except.in a general way, as the money had only been voted a few days.They had to consider now, however, that the $1,000,000 had been voted for other terminal facilities, as well as elevators, so \u2018as to make the best possible use of the harbor.It seemed to him very important to provide facilities for package freight, and they had not an unlimited supply of money.They had always paid the interest on their bonded indebtedness, and he hoped they would continue to be able:to do so, although he would like the country to relieve them: of the burden.There was nothing decided upon, however, as to ter: minals, and would not be until the commissioners: returned.from their trip to the lakes.; | To MR.TARTE SPHAKS.The Hon.Mr.Tarte, who was received.with cheers, laughingly suggested that the.question between building one or two elevators at the location suggested, was a matter of very minor importance.\u2018Why,\u201d he exclaimed, \u2018when _our route Js\u201d fixed all right, we shall have dozens and dozens of elevators, like Buf-| falo\u2019 That would come in a comparatively short time, when.they began to transport by the St.Lawrence route a goodly proportion .of the forty million Down the bad, but \u2018be just to the good.The Soap - Powder which tries your

outlet.The Port Colborne works were now begun and would be completed in two seasons.The breakwater must be built before the entrance works to the canal were commenced, asthe waves there were as large as those of the Atlantic.\u201d Had they considered that there were no Canadian boats to carry eny increase of traffic and would they allow American vesels to do this busi- mess?These were grave matters for consideration.Captain Wolvin was provided with boats, \u2018and: perhaps might do part of this trade.They must take a -broad view of these matters, putting \u2018aside sectional feelings and \u2018considering.this the national port.It was true that interest had now to be paid on Harbor bonds, but he did not think half a century would elapse before the port would be really iree.In a short time he hoped we should have free canals, a free port, and a large share of the trade of the great lakes.; There were other great works \u2018to be carried out besides those at Port Col- - borne.At Parry Sound the government was about to supplement the work done by Mr: Booth-at- his own cost.In the Georgian: Bay he bad had a survey made; : 3 i e ion doi de hiy\u201d miles from Parry Sound to North Bay twenty-two feet deep .and provide the three locks necessary.The French river scheme _ was most important and would have to be carried out.When.he considered all these things ahead the \u2018building of one or two elevators seemed a\u2019 small thing to him: There was the \u2018basin again at Windmill Point, suggested to the Department of Public Works by Mr.Gil- dersleeve, well, that was a grand thing, too, and would have \u2018to be done some day, when elevators would be built all around it.Of course, all these things cost money, but Canada was growing bigger and richer every day: The Great Northern was about to\u2019 come into the east end of the harbor and they would want money to.build an elevator there.| Then he thought Mr.Booth wanted to \u2018come in over.the Same road\u2014be was not sure, but he thought so.Ce The St.Lawrence must be.lighted welland dredged well.There were now five dredges at work on the route and within two years it would be deepened to thirty feet and widened.to four hundred and fifty in the narrowest part.In the bends it would be widened to from five \u201chundred to six hundred feet.There had \u2018recently been discussed the danger of the north \u2018channel of the Island of Orleans, rand\u2019 it \u2018was a fact that most bad accidents occurred below Quebec.There were no bad accidents between Montreal and Quebec, because: we had not \u201cwater deep enough to drown a boat.Ii he were in parliament next.year he would ask for the money to build a dry dock, and he felt certain he should get it.As for the pilotage,-he was quite decided that it must be thrown open to close corporations.Whenever he had attended an enquiry into the grounding of a ship he had always come away.con- infed \u2018fhat 3 the pilot: had Been petent the accident.would not have \u2018oe: curred.He thought the matter of one.or two elevators now was not of vast importance, and, at any rate, it was a subject he would like to discuss with them again.\u2018 Mr.James Crathern moved a hearty Public Works for his attendance and the expression of his views.He did not always see eye to eye with Mr.Tarte, but he must do him the justice to acknowledge that he had done more for the port of Montreal than any former minister.The motion qu seconded by Mr: Henry es, \u2018and supported by Messrs.\" L.E.Geoffrion and John Tor-

commence to fence in the street, on both sides of Prince.Ars thur street, and also-at a.distance.of.some: 100 feet north and south.of Prince Arthur street.The: history of this affair is briefly as follows : Mr.J.S.Thompson having acquired from the Frothingham' estate a quantity of \"land including the portion of Hutchison street now being fenced in, divided it into building lots, relying upon plans prepared by the city for the opening of new streets, and these lots were sold to different parties, who.proceeded to erect buildings thereon, among others the Masson estate, Mr.J.Whelan and the Hutchison Riding School.Meanwhile, Thompson, not having paid the whole purchase price of the land bought by him from the Frothingham estate, there remained a mortgage thereon, \u2018which \u2018mortgage was transferred to Mr.J.C.Halton, in 1892.The Thompson estate having.gone into liquidation, Mr.Halton, as mortgagee, caused the portion of the street affected by his mortgage to be sold by authority of justice and bought it \u2018in himself.Relying upon his title of proprietor,Mr.Halton is now fencing in the street, which was never regularly expropriated by the city, although all the improvements, | such as drains, water pipes, gas pipes, etc., have been placed therein.It seems that the :proprietors claim to have been under the -\u201c-jimpresston that the street was the actual .} property.of the city, and interesting litigation in connection with this matter is expected at an early date.- WANT TÉE SANCTION OF.THE COURT.An action for $2,000 has been entered.by, G.Paccard

\u2018Fire: Committee meets this afternoon they will find that two of the city fire stations, No.1 (Craig street), \u2018and No.9 (Centre street); \u2018have been condemned by the city\u2019s officials as unfit for habitation.The building.inspector, Mr.Chaussé, has made a report, showing both of the stations to be in a state of structural collapse, No.9 being especially dangerous.He urges the demolition of both buildings, - Mr.Dors, the Sanitary engineer, officially condemns both stations as being in violation of \u2018the sanitary by-laws and a menace not merely to the firemen and their families, but to public health.\" Dr.Coyle, the diagnostician of the hygiene department, was called upon to inspect NO.1 station, and he unhesitatingly condemned the building as being vnfit for human habitation, and further declaréd that three cases of typhoid within the station were directly traceable to its unhealthy state.The floor of the cellar is saturated with filth from the stables; the plumbing is: old, and in bad repair, and the closets are of types forbidden by the health by-law.There is no adequate ventilation.| Chief Benoit says that in view of these reports he will ask the fire committee for permission to put the men, horses and apparatus of these two stations under canvas.PERSONAL.Owing to change made in sailing date; Bishop Newnham, of Moosonee, and family will not

advancement to show to its sharenolders, and the public, as a resul of the past year\u2019s business, At the thirtieth annual general meeting, which was held at Toronto yesterday, May 29, and \u201cof which the official report \u2018will be found in another column, the net profits are | shown to be $275,192, which.is 11.27 per- , cent upon its capital of $3,440,200.Lhe \u201cresylty however, is really better.than jt, thus appearsy.as.the.capital stock.last.year was increased gradually by the sum: of $840,291, and some of this could not have been in the bank's hands long enough to share largely in the earnings.The premium on the new.capital stock, amounting also to $940.201, has been transferred to the reserve fund, and.causing the \u2018rest\u2019 account to equal the paid-up capital stock account, as before.Four quarterly dividends have .been paid, amounting to $206,766, or ten :and a half percent.The deposits of the public have increased nearly three million dollars compared \u2018with last year, which is proof positive: that the business methods of the bank are appreciated by the cities in which it-is established.A very strong feature of the statement is that while its liabilities to the public amount to $20,368,256, its asséts amount to $25,623,245, of which $11,858,647 are practically cash: \u2018 BISHOP MOREAU\u2019S FUNERAL CITY OF ST.HYACINTHE

This result is mainly due to the practical completion of the Uganda Railway, which .the Bishop describes as a most wonderful engineering feat, and one of which the importance has not been suffi- having reached the summit of the Mau escarpment, 8,000 feet.above the sea.All In:the course of ite 700 miles the line twice rises to a height of over 7,000 eet, Us : It is interesting to learn that the railway has already secured a considerable amount, of trade from the neighboring province of German East Africa, but it is less satisfactory to have to state \u2018that all the.trade from the coast is in the hands of German lines of steamers, which are subsidized by the home government.Bishop Tucker considers the establishment of a regular service of English steamers from Mombasa a necessary.result of the completion of the railway; failing this, the advantages of the line will be stultified, just as.they would if a service.of steamers across Lake Victoria.were not established.It is when this line of steamers is started and the railway complete to Kisumo that the Bishop anticipates the- journey from.Mengo to.England taking: only: three weeks, and.looks forward to a large.increase of \u2018British trade \u2018and the.further opening up to commerce and civilization of that part of-Africa.Lie _ With to the work which Bishop Tucker has particularly at.heart\u2014the \u201cwork of the Church->matters in Uganda are eminently satisfactory.Three years ago, he says, -there were but 13,000 native Christians; now there are 30,000.Moreover; there are twenty-seven native clergy and 2,000 teachers and workers -in the country.who are completely gelf-anp- porting.This, says the Bishop, is quite & unique experience in the mission: eld.The.kings.of the neighboring districts of Unyoro, Toro, Ankole, and .dkedi have become Christians, and there is no doubt Christianity 2 eqot be the pre vailing religion in the whole country.Asked if hte were any special.induce- | ments for: colonists to settle in the protectorate, the Bishop thought rot at present.If the government wished col- given in the shape of cheap lgnd | The climate is an excellent.one for Europeans, but bad for horses.This-led the Bishop to.say \u2018that something ought to be done towards training the wild zebra to domestic purposes.There are thousands and thousands of them on the lains, he said; splendid animals suitable for any purpose for which the horse is used, and the way this great natural \u2018force is neglected is a standing reproach to us.NEWFOUNDLAND: AFFAIRS.8t.John\u2019s, Nfld., May 28\u2014The premier, Mr.Bond, returned.here to-day from his mission to England and Can- The French shore matter is awaiting the action of the French Government, The Canadian cabinet is still considering the Bond-Blaine convention.À séttle- ment has been reached with Mr.Reid, and the whole railway question wil} be Teadjusted during the pending session of the legislature: Mr.Bond\u2019s cabinet begins a consideration of the railway prob- em next Thursday, when the terms of the gompromise will doubtless be disclosed.CHIEFS OF POLICE IN CONGRESS.New York, May 28.\u2014The eighth annual convention of the National Association of chiefs of police of the United States and Canada, began in this city to- ay.- A.H.Leslie, chief of the Pittsburg, Pa., force, and president of the \u2018association, presided.Inspector Cross, -of this city, delivered an address of welconie.Propositions for member- to the committee for decision, after \u2018which the meeting adjourned.CONFERENCE PRESIDENT.Toronto, May 29.\u2014The Toronto Methodist Conference will meet in Elm Street Church here on.June 6.The choice of the conference for president will be between the Rev.J.F.Ockley and the Rev.James Allen, ADVERTISEMENTS, CANCER SUFFERERg \u201cGAIN STRENGTH, The Now Constitutional Treatment Not Only Eradicates the Digease, but Renews the Exhausted Strength.A great many people suffering from cancers.and tumors, find zueir strength rapidly' slipping-awey.These terrible diseases undermine.the health and sap the vitality.To operate or use plasters, simply means further exhaustion and depletion, The new \u2018Constitutional treatment, instead of weakening, actually builds up the strength and invigorates the entire system;
