Our
The German Emperor has a certain personal popularity in parts of the Turkish Empire. The Sherif of Morocco counts gleefully upon his future assistance, and those Arabs of the East African Coast, who have not passed before firing parties, own him as their ruler, but what interest have the Persians, the 70 mil- lions of Indian Moslems, the Kabyles and Arabs of Algeria, and the nomads of Arabia, in furthering the aims ascribed to the Emperor William. Again, what Moslem party does Mustapha Pasha Kamel represent? He may have some influence in Turkey, though we are assured that almost all comment on the "Nationalist," leader in Syria is adverse. Are the Pahjabi Moslem, the Pathan, and the Shiah Persian to be reckoned among his followers. The sons of the hill-men who fol- lowed John Nicholson through the Kashmir gate at Delhi, and who followed their British leaders to victory in the north, are hardly likely to follow "Al Lews," and who are the Pasha's followers in Egypt? A group of young men, who consider them- selves capable of managing Egypt, the Sudan, and the Moslem world; a tiny handful of honest nationalists; and those jackals of every party that opposes progress who were once plea- santly described by an Anglo-Egyptian as "Lew(a)d fellows of the baser sort." Large crowds listen to the Pasha's orations. We admit his eloquence and wit, though we deplore the perversity of his ideas and his entire absence of humour,-but eloquence attracts an Arab crowd before all others. Who of the thousands who crowd to hear and applaud him, will follow Mustapha Kamal.
The Pasha is, in our opinion, acting unconscious- ly as Germany's drummer. THe roll of his eloquen- ce suggests conquest and world-rule, the Kaiser and Sultan Mustapha allied. Emporers of the East and West, but its real onjects is a con- cession for a quay in Morocco or for a railway in Mesopotamia granted to the enterprising Teuton, and perhapsan order for the Nationalist leader, if the German Goverment is really in as prickly a mood as our corres- pondent believes. ASs for the representatives of Germany in Egypt, official and civil, we need not say that theit excellent public and private relations with the British element in Egypt and the representatives of the Occupa- tion are in our opinion a proof that the German nation, whatever the attitude of a vocal Chauvinist section, which is unfortunately too strongly represented if high quarters at Berlin, is ready to accept the British Occupation and the peculiar position held by our country in Egypt as a guarantee of that country's peace and progress. For one supporter, European or native, of Mustapha Pasha Kamel, Lord Cromer and the Egyptian Government reckon thousands.
The butchers' strike here resulted in fierce rioting. The mob
attempted to sack the public buildings. The police fired repeated
volleys. There are 12 killed and 80 wounded. The garrison was absent

However, on enquiring as to the actual facts we were given to understand that something had happen- ed, but that the interests of justice and of the public prevented any disclosures from being made to the Press. We therefore have a right to presume that arrests are impending, and that certain Alexandrian jewellers have been swindling the public for some time.

A marriage was recent ly arranged between a Moslem boy of eleven and a girl of twelve years of age. The wed- ding day was fixed, and at the ceremony the little bridegroom was taken from his home by the "best men" and his friends to a cafe some distance from the house, according to the old custom entitled "El Huroub" (i.e. flight) in which the bridegroom flees from the house which the bride enters in his absence. This action on the part of the bridegroom is supposed to signify that he leaves his boost open to his bride, who must enter first. Tired out by the excitement of the day the bride- groom slept till his friends in the cafe found it time to return and bade him awake The poor child, fatigued and dazed, collapsed and had to be driven, fast asleep again, to the house, where his friends found that mourning and lamentation had replaced the usual cries of joy and musical orgies which accompany a Moslem wedding. The bride, finding the crowd and noise very tiresome, and being extremely bored by the old women who chattwred to her, thought that she might as well leave a cere- mony which she did not understand or appre- ciate, and disappeared. And the strangest part of the story is that nothing has been seen of her since her disappearance.

The new system of American Jewell filters which have been installed at the Alexandria Waterworks, and which have been supplying the town with purer water for some time now, were formally inaugurated by H.H. the Khe- dive yesterday, in the presence of a purely official gathering. Invitations, which had been sent out by the Alexandria Municipality and the Water Company conjointly, were re- stricted to members, past and present, of the Municipality, the magistracy, the Army, the heads of religious denominations, and the chiefs of the various Government and munici- pal departments.
The ceremony was timed to take place at 4.30 p m., and his Highness arrived
with his usual well-known punctuality. He drove up to Rond Point,
accompanied by H.E. the Go- vernor, and escorted by his Body Guard. On
reaching the grounds of the Water Company, his Highness was received, at the
foot of the carpeted staircase leading to the "settling" basins, by the
members of tho company's board and the Municipal Councillors. After shaking
bands with a number of those present, his Highness conducted by
The water from the canal is pumped first of all by one set of engines into a distributing reservoir, from which it is led off to each of the three settling basins, on its way being mixed with a solution of sulphate of alum which acts as a precipitant, causing a large quantity of mud to deposit before the water reaches the filters. These settling basins are divided by a (mid-wall so arranged that the surface water from the first half of the basin flows to the bottom of the second half of the basin and again from the surface of the second half to the filter tanks. There was a very marked difference noticeable in the clearness of the water between the first and second half of the basins, and still more so between that and the dirty water first let into the basins.
After his Highness had gone over the whole of the basins, listening
attentively to the explanations of
The filter-house proper is constructed on the top of tho filter, water reservoir, in such away that the water from those filters falls directly into this reservoir, whenever it is pumped by a second and more powerful set of electric into the mains of the town.This filter-house is divided into two stages, and a start was made at the upper stage, which is what may be called, the operating platform, where the whole of I the manipulation of the water is carried out. One filter, which had been working for some time, had been emptied for the occasion and a section through the sand made which showed the thick deposit of mud in the top layers of the sand gradually decreasing throughout the depth of the sand until at a depth of 10 inches the sand was quite free from mud. His Highness was then taken to another filter and shown the whole process of filtration, in which he evinced the greatest interest. During the process samples of the water were taken in test tubes each half I minute, showing how the water gradually became clearer and clearer.
His Highness was afterwards conducted to the lower s'age of the filter-house, where tho intricate system of pipes, valves, and regula- tors connected with each filter-bed was seen in working order, and then proceeded to the main engine house, where he was shown the electric recording instruments connected with the settling basins, the filtered water reservoirs, the town reservoir, and the main pumping engines supplying the water to the town. His Highness was greatly struck by the very con- venient manner in which all the gauges and the starting and regulating mechanism of the engines were arranged, a single man being able 'o control the whole of these without moving from one spot. The boiler-house was then visited and afterwards the workshops of the company.
At the conclusion of the inspection the Khedive expressed himself to
An adjournment was then made to a well- supplied buffet, which had been erected in a beautifully arranged alcove in the garden, where his Highness thanked the directors for their courtesy and gave expression to tho pleasure which he had derived from the visit After partaking of some refreshment, and shaking hands with his guests the Khedive drove away, as he had come, attended by H.E. the Go- vernor.
It is interesting to note that the new filter plant,which must be considered
as an immense boon to the inhabitants of the city, has taken ondsr throe
years to lay down. The filters were supplied by the Jewell Filter Company of

It is stated that the most obvious applica- tions of science are treated with, absolute neglect by the War Office. As a medical officer of the Army I have always taken a deep interest to the prevention of the disease, and especially now that I occupy the important paring of Principal Medical Officer of His Majesty's Forces to Indie, and before going on with the principal object of this letter it would perhaps be well to explain shortly the sanitary organisation of the Army in this country. At Army headquarters, and the headquarters of commands divisions, and brigades, there are sanitary officers with laboratories. In each station there are two sanitary officers, one for the cantonment generally, and one for the civil population living to and about the bazaars; a cantonment committee assembles , monthly, and oftener if necessary, to discuss sanitary and other matters, both sanitary officers being members of the committee. In every unit has a medical officer specially detailed to look after its sauitation. It will be seen from this that the sanitary personnel and equipment is on a sound footing, and since the establishment of this schema now in existence about four years, it is claimed that the health efficiency of the Army has been much increased. One of the most recent ap- pointments created is an "Inspector of Heath Efficiency," whose duty it is to teach men personal hygiene, and to bring up to a healthy level those who through ignorance or laziness lower the activity of the Army to this respect
With this scientific machinery at our, dis- pposal we have been successful in reducing the admissions to hospital, the time spent-in hospital, and the death rate, Until today we have the healthiest army in India since 1882. But while this progress has been going On in the prevention of disease, the great stumbling-block in our way has been and is enteric fever.
It is needless to remark that with such success already gained in the field of pre- ventive measures this disease has not been lost sight of.
We have tried numerous plans and system-, and the boiling of water advocated
by
But during our close and continuous scien- tific investigation of this
disease in recent years it has been forcibly brought home to us all that
enteric is seldom waterborne in
But
These were the people, I assume, who formed the bulk of the population inhabiting the Assouan camps, and it is not surprising under the circumstances that they were free from enteric fever. It would have been difficult to give it to them. Another consideration worthy of notice is that, if there, is one axiom more generally accepted in sanitation than others, it is that long occupation of camps tend to make them unhealthy, at all events for the British soldier, even if the strictest precautions are taken.
I should have liked to pay a surprise inspec- tion when
I assume, therefore, these Assouan camps ware not quite as perfect as they might be, and if an immune population had not inhabited them, enteric fever would have been with difficulty excluded from them.
Another point is, these camps were adjacent to the desert on one side and a river on the other, the fiie air therefrom helping to a great extant to keep up their reputed high level of health. Finally, the camps must have been- almost totally evacuated daring the working hours of the day, thus assisting their aeration and cleanliness.
This is all I have to say about
Then, in his historical review we come to
From my experience in
It pas only when, long after, they went into overcrowded camps and tents after the relief of Ladysmith that the disease broke out in an epidemic form.
Roberta's army at Bloemfontein and Buller's army in Natal are parallel cases in connexion with epidemic disease.
Enteric was not necessarily caused by the rivers at Paardeberg and Ladysmith,
but in my opinion by. the grime, dust, dirt of war, which harbour the
bacilli on the human being on his clothes, on his bedding, on his food,
&, while the overcrowding of tents and ground — a necessity of war —
spreads the disease by contact and by lowering vitality.
The three years subsequent to the introduction of the universal system of
boiling of water are remarkable for an exceptional increase in the
prevalence of enteric fever, viz:- Admissions -1896, 1,795; 1897, 2,010;
1898, 2,375. All the sanitary authorities in
We are the scientific workers, he is the armchair theorist. According to the
annual report for British troops in India for the year 1904, the only
stations where outbreaks are attributed to water are—(1) Mhow, where the
patients say they got it from swallowing water when bathing in the plunge
bath; (2) Kamptee, one case from drinking water from a nullah on a field
day; (3) Bereilly, one case from drinking dirty-water from a pitcher; and
(4) Wellington, where an outbreak of 17 cases was said to have been due to
contaminated er, wat but the bacillus was not found. These are all the
cases, out of a total of 1,384 occurring in-
In your leading article on
It is also stated as a matter of fact that polluted drinking water appears to be the only cause of enteric which need seriously be dreaded or solicitously guarded against." I have already shown that our Indian ex- perience is dead against tom, and in my opinion it has also been absoultely disproved by the American can Commission who report on an outbreak, during the Spanish-American war, in regiments using municipal water supplies, which were decimated, while the municipalities themselves remained absolute- ly free from the disease.
Finally your leading article dealt with the Japanese, stating that they have
applied
I yield to no one in my anxiety to effect progress of the adoption of schemes which will fit in With the whole organisation and administration of the Forces, no matter from whom they emanate, but I cannot advocate a lopsided arrangement like the Reyel Water Gone, which only proposes to stop a small by- path on the many roads to enteric
Under existing circumstances the Army machine is becoming daily more complex
and expensive, and I do not think the present time favorable for the
organisation of a spe- cial sanitary corps with full disciplinary and
executive powers, and until the opportune moment arrives we must rest
content with the advisory sanitary system which I have sketched in this
letter (and which to a great extent will follow the Army into the field) and
the educa- tion of the Army in general sanitation and per- sonal hygiene. Do
what we can,. I am afraid We can never abolish enteric; which
I may add to that I am not in favor of limiting exercise, as it is the foundation of the British character, and interference with the development of this cannot be seriously con- templated.

The American Government has already notified the release of the Russian ships in- terned in its porta That action may serve to reassure oar own shippers and insurers as to the operation of the newly ratified treaty. Though there is as yet no official announce- ment on the subject, the prompt recognition of a new order of things both by Japan and by the United States carries the logiocal im- plication that the disabilities which existed on Saturday disappeared yesterday. Oar fleet in Japanese waters contiunes to enjoy unbounded popularity and to receive lavish hospitality. The fraternisation of the men seems to be as complete as that of their officers, and the result can only be beneficial alike to ourselves and our allies.
"Telegraph."
Japan is free from alarm, and the most reckless of adventurers would hesitate to attack a country which, having proved itself so doughty a defender of its rights, can now claim for them the additional protection of the greatest naval Power in the world. These are the two considerations which have canned all civilised countries to welcome the Anglo- Japanese Treaty as pacificatory in aim, object, and essence. And Japan's appreciation of this- __the supreme merit of her agreement with England—:is being shown by the splendid reception accorded to Admiral Noel's squadron in Japanese waters. In all the functions and speeches which are recorded there is an entire absence of any note of arrogance or defiance ; the Japanese are proud of their military and naval achievements, as they have every right to be, bat they do not "crow" over their successes, as Powers with older claim! to civili- sation have been known to do. The fleets of the allied Powers now riding the waters of the Pacific in unquestioned superiority will never be called upon to engage in a struggle for conquet and annexation.

We are are all thinking of Nelson. His genius and daring are in every mind. Daring the coming celebration of Trafalgar, perhaps most men will be inclined to regard him as brave rather than as skilful, forgetting that no amount of bravery would have saved England. It was Nelson's brain which did that.

I suppose nobody has now any doubt that Germany was trying by every means in her power to make it clear to France that if she would not accept Germany's extended hand she must suffer the consquences. German emissaries acted upon all classes of society in France. They acted upon the Stock Exchange by hammering down French rentes. They acted also upon politicians. Tho editor of a promi- nent French army paper was shown by German officers orders which told them that in case of sadden mobilisation they would have to join their regiment at Nancy. Furthermore, a large order for ammunition was given to a French firm, and openly sent by the French railways to the German frontier.
"Couriers Della Sara. " (Milan.)
The "Corriere della Sera," discussing the political situation, remarks that, although at one time itself a warm supporter of the Triple Alliance, the present European situation leaves it uneasy as to the coarse which Italy should take in the event of a war between Great Britain and Germany, which would set Europe in a blaze. The journal urges above all things the importance of preserving the Anglo-Italian entente, and recalls the historic dictum of Bismarck on the subject of the repudiation of alliances which are no longer consonant with a nation's interest*, when the circumstances in which they were concluded have altered.
"Patria."
The "Patra" sharply rebukes the "Corriere della Sera" for raising this question, which it says can but lend weight to the unjust imputation that Italian foreign policy lacks sincerity,
The publication of the full text of the Russo- Japanese treaty definitely
clears up several points of interest which have hitherto been the subject of
divergent statements, and brings to light several points as to which there
has been up to the present little knowledge. Among such points may be
mentioned the concluding paragraph of Article II. regarding military
measures on the Russo-Korean frontier. Previous summaries of the treaty have
con- tained in Articles III. and VI. clauses pro- viding that the rights
acquired by private person or private enterprises (a term covering important
Russian concessions in Manchuria) should be respected. In the fall text
these clauses do not appear, possibly for the reason that their retention
would imply the exercise of sovereign rights in Manchuria on the part of
In Article III. the deleted clause is super- seded by a declaration on the
part of Russia that none of the Russian concessions in Man- churia confer
any territorial advantage, impair Chinese sovereignty, or are inconsistent
with the principle of equal opportunity. On the Other hand, in Article V.,
which deals with the session to
In several of the articles recognition is made of the obligation of the two contracting Powers to obtain China's, consent to the proposed arrangements.
In Article VI., a clause included in two of previous versions to the effect that both parties Are-at liberty to take any measures they please in the expropriated (railway) territory does not appear, and Article VII. shows that the restriction of the use of the railways in Manchuria to commeroial and industrial pur- poses does not apply to the Japanese portion of the Liao-Hing leased territory.
The concluding clause of Article IX., relating to the La Perouse and Tartary Straits, is one of the points regarding which the most con- flicting statements have at different times been published.

Cours de l'Association des Courtiers en Marchandises
When in a secret not a secret t queries the Parisian. When it is a State
secret? We know this bat too well. Yet the term, State secret, should fill
the ordinary mortal with awe, com- mand respect of the journalist, and the
silence of those entrusted with the State secret. But nothing of tho kind ;
the present â€" century Frenchmen will have no secret, he calls for above
board attitude and policy. Secrets are, however, of absolute necessity, a
useful gar- ment at all events, for a; on certain secrets being faithfully
kept depends the security of a country. Somehow or other, this cannot be
understood by some Frenchmen, who argue that there is in reality no such
thing as a State secret, for all secrets must come to light sooner or later.
The mere existence of a secret calls for its being revealed. Nature has
itsâ€" secret; mankind, wishing to imitate Nature, creates secrets, but
these are always let out A strange argument, for sure, but which is deeply
rooted in the Gallic mind. What is the reason that the Latin race cannot
keep a secret t History shows us over and over again that such is the case.
Has Lombroso ever studied this point 1 if not, he should afford os
interesting reu arks thereon. Meantime, State secrets are being let loose
with alarming rapidity, much to the disgust of friendly Powers, and of all
honest, staunch Frenchmen. I shall add that those responsible for the
violating of State secrets are not ladies, nor are they military men, nor
journalists, but Government officials, Deputies, and Senators, each seeking
the friendship of the Powers, in view of the next Presidential election. A
deplorable custom in vogue with Latin statesman is that as soon as a
Minister or politician is ousted from his seat of office he at once applies
to a newspaper for a situation as "redacteur.†In this capacity he
furnishes as the paper with manuscript cotes carefully collected or
purloined during his term of office. It is evidently interesting reading,
sends op the circulation of the paper, but in many cases causes grave
trouble to the Government, which dare nut call on the ex-official to
restrain his ardour to open the eyes of the public, fearing that he will
“go one better.†Few Latin politicians, from a Prime Minister to a
Prefect of Police, would consider their careers at a dose had they not
published their memoirs or cotes or souvenirs, or a reproduction of every
document which had been pat before them. 1 shall afford one instanceâ€" a
French Minister of Foreign Affairs, at present holding a high position on
one of the best known Parisian dailies. He is not afraid to sign his name to
leaders, if not to other dubious paragraphs. This same Minister has
sufficient ' materiel†up his sleeve to keep Europe lively for several
years, in particular those financial magnates interested in Russia and
Russian loans. The descendants of Naundorff invited their friends on Monday
to celebrate the anni- versary of Marie Antoinetteâ€"s death. The mass,
which was said ih- La Chapelle, Saint Denis, was red, “the liturgioal
colour reserved fora martyr/â€" as the invitation cards said. The chief
figure in tho celebration was Prince Jean de Boubrbon, who is called by bis
friends "Jean IU. of France.†With a large moustache, blue eyes, and a
good figure be looked like a cavalry officer. The characteristics of his
alleged Bourbon ancestors' certainly needed come looking for. On his right
hand was a charming little boy about six years old. The Naandorffists spoke
of him whisperingly as “the Dauphin.†The mother of the Dauphin is the
daughter of a wine merchant in Lunel. Prince Jean, in claiming Bourbon
descent, through Naundorff, keeps alive the belief that Naundorff was the
son of Louis XVI. and Marie Antoinette. The Prince was left penni- less and
almost starving by bis parents. He and his brother were adopted by a rich
Naon- dorffist, M. Cuillie, a wine merchant Jean learned the business of his
adopted father, and in doe time married Mile. Cuillie. Such was tho family
which played the chief part in the Red Mass yesterday. The priest prayed for
the speedy accession of Jean III. to the throne of France, and at the end of
it all Paris was moved in the same degree that Lon- don is moved when the
Jacobite League is good enough to decorate the statue of
The tragic death of your great actor has created a profound-feeling of regret
throughout the French artistic world, where he was looked upon as the
English Talma. With all due respect to the British theatrical community, it
may be said that Irving was a much greater actor than Englishmen gave him
credit for. Much of his extraordinary genius passed unob- served by his
countrymen, but was fully recognised by the Frenchman. He was looked upon by
the societaires of the “Francais†as the greatest living actor, as the
worthy suc- cessor of the immortal Talma. When Irving was created a knight
it surprised many Englishmen, but not the French. His mag- nificent career,
his glorious death, will hold a prominent place in the annals of stage
history, says his greatest admirer, M. Mou- net-Sully, who speaks of Irving
as the great tragedian, the incomparable comedian.†Admirers of Whistler,
and they are legion, will not fail to pay a prolonged visit to the Salon
d'Automne. Nine hundred pictures are exhibited out of 4,000 submitted to the
jury. Retrospective art is admirably represented by Ingres and Mane*, while
the Impressionist show a strong front with Rencer, Cezanne, Raffaeli, and
Carriere. Exhibits by the younger generation present inequalities naturally,
ne- vertheless, the “toiles†signed Charles Guerin, Soi, Maurice
Gurfroult, Vuillard, Desvalliire, Bonnard, and Sternberg-Davids may be
regarded as chefs dâ€"ceuvre, affording striking evi- dence of their
paintersâ€" efforts to seek careful composition and fine harmony. The work
of Mr. Lavery, an Englishman, comes in for a deal of deserved attention. The
French medical world is bitterly com- plaining that trade was never so bad
and com- petition so keen, with the result that many medical gentlemen, to
avoid starvation, have had to don a white top hat a yellow took out a whip,
and drove a cab. Others see their few patients leaving them, disappearing as
if by magic. Matters have reached each a point that a congress has been
summoned for April, 1906, to discuss what measures should be taken for the
suppression of the medical world microbe, alias, the quack doctor. This
party within the last few years has grown in- solent in the extreme. He
defies doctor and justice, and rules the patient The impudence of some of
these quack doctors is such that they style themselves Professor at the
Faculty of Medicine, or Physician to the French Re- public I Some change
their names to Brouardel or Dieulafoy, or Noux ! But the ordinary quack
doctor is satisfied with filling three columns with his advertisement
recommending his infallible cure. Matters have reached a climax
necessitating protection of the weak of body and mind against these
impostors. -Will your medical board be represented at this Congress? America
surely will not, as natives from that continent reach Europe either as
colonel, or professor, or doctor, or “tout ensemble.†âm dead," remarked
an elderly lady to an official in Paris to whom she had gone for advice
regarding her identity, and she polled forth from her pocket documents to
prove that, so for as the law was concerned, she has joined the silent
majority, and had no more concern with the material things of the world. The
official, fancying from the extraordinary nature of her explanation that the
lady most be a lunatic, and possibly a dangerous one, was about to ring the
tell for assistance when he realized that what she said was the truth. Sort
enough, there was a paper setting forth that a woman bearing the very name
that she had given had died in the month of January. After this document had
been duly perused by the official, another, which conveyed fall proof of the
identity of the lady, was produced, and it was followed by others, which
left no possible doubt as to hie truth of her statement "So you see that I
am legally dead,†she remarked, “though I am talking to you here, and in
the best of health. Then she went on to relate, that her husband, who was a
retired officer, had deserted her about five years ago. He died in August,
and when she went to the Prefecture of the Seine to apply for the boon of
the management of a newspaper kiosque as the widow of a retired officer, she
was informed, to her otter amazement, that she was potting in a false claim,
as she had predeceased her husband in January. Inquiry led to the discovery
that her flighty husband had taken up with another lady, who had herself
died at the beginning of this year. The retired officer had passed this
person off ai his lawful spouse, and when she died had given the name of his
real wife to the authori- ties. The mat er is considerably complicated by
the fact that the latter knows absolutely nothing about the woman who took
her place. But she is bound to persevere, as until she succeeds she will
remain dead in the eyes of the law. Saturday night "specials†announced in
bold type that “Noovelle Zelaude bat North- umberland par 31 points a
rienâ€â€"news which created little surprise in the French football
community, who are seriously thinking of inviting the team to Paris “to
get a licking.†The football craze has rapidly spread over France, and so
keen is the interest displayed in that game that every paper of any standing
is bound to give latest results of important matches in Great Britain. It
is, indeed, inte- resting to hear the young Parisians, in lycee uniform, or
in blouse, gravely discussing the strong points of the Bolton Wanderers, the
failings of the Sheffield United I Sands) morn- ings, trains, â€"buses,
trams, are crowded with footballers in full war-paint, on route for the
football field, where thousands of interested onlookers witness spirited
contests ; now and again honored by the presence of a Cabinet Minister or a
General, who congratulate winner and loser at the end of day. The Frenchman
is rapidly gaining prominence in the world of sport, a fact regarded as
impossible some five years ago by himself. Now he is getting cocky, is ready
to face
LOW VITALITY. ENFEEBLED NERVELESS MEN GAIN VIGOUR FROM DR. WILLIAMSâ€" PINK PILLS. Men who drift into a state of low vitality are easy prey to serious diseases. To regain energy and nerve for work they need the rich new blood supplied by Dr. Williamsâ€" Pink Pills for Pale People. We quote the word of Mr. H. D. Lloyd, of Foel- bach farm, near Corwen, North Wales:. "Many months ago I became very weak and ill, after feeling “run down†For a long time I had to' give up work. I had terrible pains in the stomach and some- times vomited blood. Doctors said I was suffering from gastric catarrh but though I consulted three, my state of health was most serious. I touched scarcely food, for my stomach was too weak to digest it, and attempts to eat were followed by intense pains. My face became haggard and I lost weight, while my weak- ness increased. Not until August last did I find a real and permanent cure. Then I read of a case like mine being oared by Dr. Wil- liamsâ€" Pink Pills, and I gave them a trial. After two boxes of the pills I felt better in every way. I continued them, and my strength re turned. I could digest food and enjoy it More than that I was able to resume work. I should add that my sister was oared of rheumatism by Dr. Williamsâ€" Pink Pills.†For men whose vitality is low, and women languishing from anaemia, Dr. Williamsâ€" Pink Pills are unrivalled. They make rich red blood and fortify the nerves. They have cured also indigestion, Bile, Kidney Disease, Rheuma- tism, Paralysis, Locomotor Ataxy, and ladiesâ€" ailments.

BEYOND THE VEIL. ARCHDEACON AND THE WORLD OF SPIRITS. Archdeacon Colley, rector of Stockton, bear Rugby, will have made a sensation at the Church Congress, at Weymouth by moving the appointment of a committee representative of the Established Church to inquire into pey- chical phenomena. Archdescon Colley has embodied his spirit- ualistic experiences of thirty-three year in an address, which is to be published in three in an guages, and which is based upon a diary in which he has recorded carefully various super- natural visitations. “My object,†said Archdeacon Colley in an interview with an “Expressâ€"â€" representative recently, “is to explain what I hold strongly â€"that there is scientific proof of life beyond the grave. “Religionists say that we want no proof, but I wish to show that it is a truth that does not depend upon belief, article or creed, bat on proof positive-ocular, auditory, and tangible â€"that these spirit people of whom I speak have been seen, heard, and touched by me. “I give dates for all the ciroumstances, and chapter and verse.â€
In one instance the archdeacon avers that he and four friends were sitting with a medium when the form of a little child was discerned on the medium's left. The child was seen in the fall gaslight, ported her month to receive kisses, spoke, and, on the instructions of the medium, fetched articles from different parts of the room. Eventually an ornament on the mantlepiece was indicated. As the little girl went forward the fire bis zed up with worthing heat, and the drew back in alarm. Involuntarily the archdeacon asked : “Did it burn you, my dear ?†and the reply came back through the medium. “Yes, I felt it†Another spirit form called into realisation through a medium was that of an Egyptian. He was tall, walked about the room, and fi- nally sat by the side of the archdeacon, who examined h:m through a Stanhope lent closely, observing the frontal ornament of the turban. As be passed his fingers over it it seemed to melt away. Altogether the Egyptian remained visible for an hour, and was induced under the in- fluence of the medium to write on the back of Archdeacon Colleyâ€"s card. For this a pencil was placed near him.
Subsequently the card was forwarded to the authorities of the British Museum, and the writing was identified as Coptic Facsimiles have been prepared, which the archdeacon was to produce at the congress.
The archdeacon assigns the wedding, which took place last July between his son, Lieute- nant Colley, and an Irish girl, to a recent visitation. While paying a chance call in London Lien- tenant Colley was told that a lady wished to i see him. He was confronted with a medium, a total stranger, who told him that the spirit of his dead mother wished to communicate with him. A message in a faint voice was dictated by the spirit through the medium, the meaning of which was beyond the lieutenantâ€"s com- prehension. Presently another and strange spirit spoke and delivered a message, which proved after- wards to concern a lady in Ireland. Again the first spirit spoke and intimated that the stranger was the mother of the lieute- nantâ€"s future wife, and that his marriage had been arranged. Quite sceptically the officer informed his father of his amazing experience, and the archdeacon understood the first message as a reference to an incident of bis early married life.
Eventually while delivering tho message to the Irish lady, though still incredulous, the lieutenant became acquainted with the girl, who became his bride a little over two months ago. During a pastoral visitation Archdeacon Colley came an row an instance only a short time ago, in which a widow who was on her death- bed talked aloud for some time with, her hus- band, whose spirit, she declared, was in the room. “I do not believe in pressing these things before unbelievers," said the archdeacon “because life is too short for controversy, and, as someone has said controversy equalises wise men and fools. “What I have learnt I have learnt by ex- perience and patient experiment, and by con- stant fasting. I have not been afraid to imperil assertions in favor of spiritualistic beliefs. It has been borne in upon me that I ought to speak, and I shall not cease to claim that these manifestations should be received as being just as credible as Bible incidents, in which an go's appeared to men. There are many things which mast be left to the scientists rather than the Church. I am ready to be cross examined, and I want inquiry to be made.â€
Archdeacon Colley graduated at Magdalen College, Oxford, in 1869. He has been a curate et Coventry, morning lecturer at St Anne's. Wandsworth, and has worked in Portsmouth.

and a new existence imparted in place of what had so lately seemed worn-out, "used up," and valueless. This wonderful medicament is purely vegetable and innocuous, is agreeable to the taste —suitable for all constitutions and conditions, in either sex; and it is difficult to imagine a case of disease or derangement, whose main features are those of debility, that will not be speedily and permanently benefited by this never-failing recuperative essence, which is destined to cast into oblivion everything that had preceded it for this wide-spread and numerous class of human ailments.

is sold by the principal Chemists throughout the world. Price in England, 2 9 and 4/6. Purchasers should see that the word 'THERAPION' appears on British Government Stamp (in white letters on a red ground) affixed to every package by order of His Majesty's Hon. Commissioners, and without which it is a forgery.
