People who doubt whether the Milt- ed. States is an Anglo-Saxon nation or 11,0t had better watch the immediate future of the Philippine Islands and find out. Uncle Sam has enough of John Bull in him to take everything that comes his way, and hold on to pretty much everything he takes. If the great victory of Commodore Dewey has been completed by tbe cap- ture of the Philippines, and the Stars and Stripes have been once hoisted over those far distant isles of the sea, the 'United States has just about enough earth hunger to live up to the motto, "WhatWe Have We Hold." X When the Liberals -were in Opposi- tion they were unsparing in their con- demnation of the practice which per- mitted Clonservative members of Par- liament to receive promises of Govesn- =mat employment, to sit in the House with those promises in their pockets, and. to vote solidly with tbe Govern- ment. It was quite proper that tbe practice should have been condemned; for it constituted a virtual, if not an .a.ctual, breach of the independance of Parliament. But, since the arriyal of the Liberals in office they bave shown themselves neglectful, if not forgetful, of this principle on more than one oc- ca,sion. At least two conspicuous members of the party are now laid open to the charge that they are no longer in a -position to cast an inde- pendent vote on any geestion that may be brought before them. M. C. Otuneron, who is to be appointed to the Lieutenant Governorship of the •territories, and D. C. Fraser, wbo is to be made Chief Justice of British Columbia, are, if the reports be true, in exactly a similar position to that •avhieh the Liberals when in opposition complained of. Defeat has overtaken the Spanish , navy, but not the Spanish war corre- "n-pondent. The American navy contains quite a few men of mark, judging by the way their shots told. Rear Adiniral Dewey is 61 years of • age, Fame came late to him, but it inade up for lost time. W. B. McMurrich has been appoint- ed to enforce the alien labor law at Toronto.

If wheat prices remain as they are till harvest a wheat farm in Ontario or the west will be better than aclaim on Bonanza Creek. Jno. Butler, of Motherwell, met with a painful accident on Monday.

Parliament will be called upon at next session to deal with the whole subject of mutual benefit society in- suranee, and a material increase in rates is probable. The House of Commons approyed of the new contract between the Govern- ment and.Messrs. Peterson, Tate & Co. for the establishment of a fast Atlan- tic serviee. Ridley & Co., clothiers, of Cbatharn, have assigned to C. B. Armstrong, of London. The firm was one of the largest of its kind in Western Ontario, and it is understood that the liabilities will be heavy. Uncle Sarn has a sweet tooth. If he secures Hawaii, Cuba and the Philip- irxee he will have the three greatest cane -sugar producing islands on the earth. The Louisiana, planters can hardly be expected to fearer annexa- tion.

Professor Sohn A.

A protest was flied by the Liberals Tuesday against the return of Finlay F. 5.1a,cDarmid, the Conservatine mem- ber -elect in West Elgin, who won the seat by one vote by the decision of Justice MacLennan, in the court of Appeal.

It adds: "It had been boped lie might have some sense of en- joyment as the warm weather return- ed, and turned the whole earth into a garden but the truth is he has taken leave of all portions of the earth. He is possessed with a sense of departure. His body, mind and soul ask for no food of any kind. His one desire is for peace. He has longer times of quiet sleep, oe rest with closed eyes, than when the morphia torment began, but though he has considerable physical strength, he is unable to listen to any- thing but a short message of one or twn sentences. Even this is often an effort. He has seen three or four friends outside of the family, but no conversation occurred. Nothing but a farewell blessing for each of them."

Mrs, jas Oinerand, Who lives in WI.S.Ston, makes tbe following state - Meat in regard to a remarkable cure effected by tbe use of Dr, -Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peoples—"I ana 30 years of acte and have lived in VViarton for the past 6 years, PreviOttS to this Lsvith my husband,who is itSt011e mason, were residents of Ohesley. About four years ago there came a swelling on the right side of my peck which grew as the time went on instil in about six mOnths it had grown as large as a goose egg. I consulted a physician and he laneed it. This phy- sician diagnosed my case as enlarge- ment of the glands, and said 1 would eet well after it was lanced. Tbis operation gave me temporary relief, but it was only a short tine before the lamp again began to avow and in six months I was worse than ever. In the meantime I had been prescribed for by different physicians and taken several patent medicines, but none of them gave me more than temporary relief. About three years ago 1 left Wiartonfor Chesley,tbinking probably a change would improve iny health. I consulted a physician there and he said the trouble was incurable and might end fatally. Discouraged I re- turned to my home in Wiarton, much worse than I was when I left, and be- lieving I had come home to die. Be- fore I left for Chesley I had been at- tacked • occasionally with • fainting spells ; on my return these occurred inore frequently and were of longer duration. With the least excitment I would faint dead away, I had become very weak and could scarcely walk across the floor and felt mysela grow- ing worse every day. I enable consult- ed the local physician and this time he said it was spasms of the heart and that I would not liye more than a couple of days. While lying in lied a lady of the town visited me and ad- vised me strongly to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I thought it useless, but was ready to grasp at any means of promised relief, and so counnenced to use them. Before the second box was completed I felt myself getting better and. before I had finished ray se-venth box I was able to go about and. do my own work. I continued them until I used fourteen boxes, when I was cora- pletely cured. The swelling has left my neck and. I am now as well a, woma,n as I ever was -in my life. I make the above statement voluntarily, believing it my duty to that which has saved my life and will if necessary make an affidavit to the above facts at any time. A depraved condition of the blood or a shattered nervous system is the sec- ret of most ills that afflint mankind, and. by restoring the blood and rebuild- ing the nerves, Dr. Williams' Pink „Pills strike ab the root of the disease, driving it from the system and restor- ing the patient to health andstrength. In oases of paralysis, spinal troubles, locomotor ataxia, sciatica, rheuma- tism, erysipelas, scrofulous troubles, etc., these pills are superior toall other treatment. They are also a specific for the troubles -which make the lives of so many women a burden and speedily restore the rich glow of health to sallow cheeks, Beware of imita- tions and substitutes alleged to be "just as good."
