THE LIBERAL (`ONVENTION
A. G. MacKay is right to call a
convention. The Liberal party in
the Province of Ontario will have
something to look forward to when
a truly representative convention
declares for progressive legislation
and public rights.
But Mr. MacKay should not de-
lay calling this convention until
next June. Is he to have no policy
during the next session. no man-
date from his party? Let him call
a representative convention to
meet, not next June, but next Feb-
ruary. The delegates will do well
to see the legislature at work. and
the Liberal legislators—many of
them—may be delegates to the
convention. •
No doubt Mr. MacKay evil 1•be
tendered the leadership He may
regard its acceptance as involving
a sacrifice, a call to public dill,
and he should so regard it. He
should notify the convention that
he will acoept no salary from the
government and he should peretnp•
torily decline to have the hat pas-
sed around for his support. Above
all things he should refuse to be
"grab -staked" by rich men, public
service corporations or by any ono
else.
The leader. of an opposition must
keep himself clear from all entang-
ling alliances and encumbrances.
He mist he his own man and come
to power free from. any obligations,
express or implied, with no interest
to secure except the public inter.
est.
Under our system the province
is only less interested in an efficient
a nd public-spirited opposition than
it is in u, good and progressive
government, Mr. MacKay will do
well to start early and start right.
There are seine big questions up
now that he ought to "get right
on" at once !—Toronto World.

as statesmen and generals, and who

A, LONDON DOCTOR
'rens How to Cure Stomach and
Liver Troubles.
A distinguished London physidait
during the course of a recent lecture
on stomach and liver troubles, gives
the following advice:—
"Be moderate in the use of heavy,
rich foods. Do not eat hurriedly,
and thoroughly masticate the food.
If your habits are sedentary, take a
moderate amount of exercise before
retiring and immediately upon aris-
ing. Do not use strong cathartic
pills, many of which are advertised as
sure cures, but in reality do injury
by :weakening the system.. If you
find it necessary to use any laxative,
stick to the old-fashioned vegetable
mixture, viz. ;—
Fluid Extract Cascara 34 oz.
Syrup Rhubarb ... i oz.
Carriana Compound .. i oz.
Compound Syrup Saisapatilla s oz.
Take one teaspoonful after meals
and at bedtime. .
This acts in a gentle, natural way,
and is free from the weakening
effects of strong purgatives.
The ingredients can be bought
separately, and anyone can mix them
at home. This informattolt will be of
benefit to our readers and is tivotelt

BLISTERS ON TLIE BRAIN
Life is only some great kaleidos-
cope, and we all look through it at
a central figure. We look again,
and, behold, the scene is changed.
Lest Wednesday Longboat's face
was flashed out in the press of
America, a champion and a hero.
Today, again, it is something new;
tomorrow something else is seen.
We demand the unusual, or we
give no special heed, and even then
we refuse to be surprised for more
than a moment. We have • little
use for the commonplace. Long-
boat's legs have won him a niohe
in the hall of temporary fame.
Johnny Hayes was there, but he
fell. Dorando was there, but he
toppled over, and people no longer
point and say : "There goes the
champion." And one day some one
will conte along, and Tom, too. will
be keeled over, and a new champ-
ion will stand where he stood. The
world is full of ex -champions, ex-
members of Parliament, ex•gover.
hors, ex•mayors, ex aldermen, to
say nothing of the host which the
XXX has put out of business,
whioh only goes to shyw the un-
certainties of life. .And we are
prepared to hear anything. We
have heard of operations on the
heart, that organ being stitched.
between beats ; we have heard of
the grafting of skin, and a father's
veins being tapped to give life to
the son, and pease to marvel at the
wonders of surgery. We have
heard of flying machines that twist
and turn imaginary corners,
against the wind or with it, rise or
fall at the will of the operator, and
we refuse to longer wonder. Some
of the greatest marvels are now
commonplace. We no longer give
a second thought to the wireless or
or the phone or telegraph, while
we forget our forefathers and the
tallow dip. We have delved into
spirit land and a leading reputable
magazine now photographs spirits
as they have been materialized by
the medium whose genuineness is
vouched for by world renowned
scientists, and we would not be
terribly surprised if a spirit would
flit in some night and watohus eat
our supper. Getting back to Long.
boat and his legs, his feet were
blistered. Well, you see, that's
where the friction is in a long dis•
tame rico. Going a degree higher
up in the scale of brain power, the
blisters appear on the hands, and
we have the ball player, who must
first blister ere he callouses. But
it's the fellows.who get blisters on
the brain who get there. The fel:
lows with the blisters'. on his feet
got $a"",000 for his race in the Madi-
son Square Garden. The fellow
with blisters on his brain, if he is a
money -getter. gets $500,000 or a
million. If it is in exploration he'll
find a new mine; if it's in stock
raising he'll raise the best pow or
sheep; if it's in the dairy business,
he'll have the best butter, or sell
the best milk. If it is geology he'll
unearth a mastodon or strike rare
relics of an extinct race, or dig up
something to rivet the attention
of the world. If the blisters on
the brain run in the prosaic line of
storekeeping, his store will be up
to the minute. Longboat's blisters
will heal, and his star must sooner
or later be eclipsed, but the fellow
with the blisters on the brain is as
hard to heat in his chosen field as
Honorable Thomas Longboat,
world's champion, and idol of the
hour. C. F. R.—Tho News.
