' Huge Industries In America. ' ROME, March 31.-J. P. Morgan is in a most critical condition.' This is the official announcement made yes- terday by the attending physicians. For several days he has been unable to take nourishment, and his weak- ness has given rise to the gravest ap. prehension. Up to Saturday night Mr, Morgan's son -he -law, Herbert L. Satterlee, and the physicians made every effort to conceal Mr. Morgan's true condition. The bulletin issued last night, how- ever, indicates that the worst is to be feared if a reaction does not speedily set in. The physicians, who are in com- aelete accord on the diagnosis, issued the following bulletin: "A week ago Mr. Morgan -was per- ,suaded to go to bed and remain there to ecinserve his strength. Until Wed- nesday afternoon he did very well under tis regimen; he rested and slept without the aid of drugs and took a satisfactory amount of nour- ishment. "Wednesday afternoon be began to refuse food and since then it has been impossible to nourish him. He has lost weight and strength very rapidly. His nervous system is shelving this, and it has added to the strain seri- ously. "Mr. Morgan has not developed any org,atie trouble, but is so exceed- ingly weak that his present condition Must be considered most critical, "(Signed), G. Bastianelli, M. Allen Starr, G. A. Dixon." The only nouriehment which the patient has beee able to receive for several days has been through injec- tions, to which the phyeicians had to have recourse, and they fear that this is not sufficient le sustain him for any length of lime. , 3, P.

' PARIS, lVfarch 31. -President Poin- ,care's first official journey to attend ;the -closing fetes of the National Con- gress of Provident Associations yes- terday further demonstrated the great popularity which he enjoys. He was greeted an every hand with marked enthusiasm. The President, who eulogized the 'good work of the associations, was fol- lowed by the Prince of Monaco, who drew a parallel between .the objects of the associations and the ideal of international arbitration. He urged the associations to strive to hasten the time when arbitration would replace competition in armaments, which squandered the resources stored up by the healthy hscluetry of the nations, Three For Co-Adjutor, KINGSTON, March 31. -There are three names mentioned in connection with the position of oodidjutor for the diocese of Ontarie, which position roust be filled owing to the illness of Bishiep Mills.

Forty thousand persoes must be fed, clothed and housed for a week or more. Twenty thousand persons must be cared for indefinitely. These are per- sons who lost their all when their household goods were swept away. They must be provided -with a few necessary household articles such as bedding, pots and pans, stoves and a few dollars. A half million dollars could be used in this way by the relief committee. Fifteen thousand houses and build- ings must be rebabiEtated. Two thousand houses and other structures, or what remeins of them, must be pulled down. Thousands of tons of debris must be removed. Following are some of ale aecom- plishments since the flood broke over the city Tuesday morning.

In the Majority of cases neither the mo- thers nor the babies received any medical attention, Many of the babies have died from ewposure and hunger; others are in a critical condition, as are probably a hundred prospective mothers.

The Norman nobility, who always had an eye to effect, spent considerable sums of money on their brooches, which were chastely wrought, and added greatly to the beauty of a costume. The earliest buttons were merely adopted as ornaments and fulfilled no useful function. In the earliest paintings one finds buttons without any correspond- ing buttonholes. Buttons were also sewn on shoes, e,nd figured pro:rine:It- ly on the sleeves. The button as an article ol use, and not merely as an ornament, may be Sall to date from the reign of Edward I. These early buttons were of modest appearance and were manufactured from bone and wood. It was the usual custom to have Iwo buttons stitched on the coat at the small of the back to enable a man to button back his coat tails, so that he could walk or draw nis sword the more easily. These two buttons are till retained on modern coats, though any reason for their existence has long since departed. As wealth Increased gold and silver buttons made their appearance. We and Pepys writing: "This morning came home my flne camlett coat, with gold buttons, and a silk suit, which cost me much money, and I Pray God to make me able to pay 1or it." At a later date cloth buttons became yery popular, but when Bir- mingham began to turn out metal but- tons an Act was passed in the reign pf Geoege 1, forbidding the manufac- ture of eicth buttons in 'order that !the neW industry of metal buttons j night 'have a ehrince to flourish.

Boils in themselves are not a dangerous trouble, but still, at the same time are very painful. They are caused entirely by bad blood, and to get rid of them it is absolutely necessary to put the blood into good con- dition. For this purpose there is nothing to equal that old and well known blood medicine, Burdock Blood Bitters. Mrs. James Mageean, Floral, Sask.; writes: -"I was troubled for eight years with boils on my face and body, and I tried everything I could think of. My neighbors told me to drink water off of sour corn meal, but I kept getting worse until one day a woman in town asked me why I didn't try Burdock Blood Bitters. My husband got me two bottles, and before one was gone my bells had all dis- appeared, and I feel like a different woman. I can't tell you how thankful I am for your medicine. I will recommend it to all suffering women." / Manufactured only by The T. Milburn Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont. GERMANY'S AIRSHIPS. Over Twelve Millions Will Be Ex- pended on Fleet.
