The assent of New foundland to the Confed-
Grafton scheme is not an Indispensable matter.
If Nova Scotia and New b runswick would ac-
cept it, the union could be contaminated, and
the two islands left to come in when they
were ready-which they would be before very
many years. We would regard defSat in
Newfoundland as more to be regretted on ac-.
count Of the effect which the reverse of our
friends might have upon the public feeling i'll

When we consider the hostile attitude which

toward the plan Of Confederation, it must be

A New Actor on the Mexican Stage.
Maximilian, by the grace Of Louis Napole7
on Emperor of Mexico, has lately done a
shrewd thing Apparently recognizing the
fact that his alien rule lacks most important
element OF strength in that it has no support
in, but Is rather opposed by, the sentiment OF
national pride among the people, be has hit
upon ascheme by which he evidently hopes to
enlist that sentiment in his own favor. Child
less himself, after several years OF wedlock, he
has been looking about for an heir such as
might add the strength Of the dynasty he
wishes to found, and has finally hit upon a
young man who j. the son of Don Angel It
urbide, and grandsonof the Mexican Emperor
Iturbide, who was executed in 1924. On the
18th Of September, the anniversary Of Mex
lean independence, this youth Augustus by
name, was formally acknowledged and pro-
claimed heir presunptive to the Mexican
throhe:Tayzk HIS gCaH TUg
Not alone this choice itself, but all the cir
cumstances connected with it, have been most
adroitly managed. The anniversary of the
triumphant entry of the Emperor Iturbide in
to the city of Mexico, September ,30th, 1924,
mas also been celebrated in that capital with
great pomp, and on the sametday monument
was dedicated to Morelos, the Mexican patri-
ct in the war of independence. 1t is said that
one to perpetuate the, memory of Iturbide
himself is soon to be placed in the cathedral.
Everything, in short, which could be done to
aatter and conciliate the national prideof the
Mexcans, yet at the same slime to, sohelly ig-
more the Republic and its c,aims.seems to have
been done. Itisaveryl shfewd dodge on the
part of the Imperial clique; and though its
Importance as a political move, and the actual
extent of its influence on a people so uncer-
tain as the Mexicans cannot, of course, be pre-
dicted, one cannot help acknowledging its in
genuity., As for the young man himself thus

Dear Brethren Editors = willyou permit me to
make statement in your valuable paper, for the
benefltofyour readers who may be afflicted with ca
tarrhal difficulties? Ihaye been much troubled with
catarrh Of the very worst type for some twenty years.
1t gradually grew worse, producing cough and
hoarseness, destroying the sense OF ss and bTeas-
ing down my general health to such degree as COM
pei me to resign my pastorate and suspend public
made dilise Use Of the usual Remedies such as
snuff OF divers kinds nitrae of silver, tar-water,
olive tar and inhalations, but witaOut any very.
sautary effects. Last summer while journcying in
the country for my health, heard oDr. Lighthin's
successful mode of treating eatarrh in Providence,
R. l. visited him, and put myself nder his treat
ment- I began Immediately to. improve, and this
improvement has gone on to the present time. My
catarrh has gradually melted away, my cough has
disappeared, my voice has become natural, and am
once more able to preach the blessed Gospel. The
popularity Of pr. Lighthin is that hscleanses the
inside nasal passage with healing solution, applied
by curiOusly constructed syringe, in the passage
leading from the roof of the mouth to the nose At
ter few efforts and little practice there is pain
or serious difficulty in this mode Of application.
Let me advise all troubled with catarrhal dcnlties
to apply to Dr.. LiahthIll. ?. R. RUSSELL
