WEAK PROSECUTIONS.

In America any person accused Of
crime may testify in his own behalf. This
is regarded as the right of every defend
ant in criminal action. Aside from it's
Inherent justice this plan has been amply
vindicated by results. It has often en-
abled an innocent man to gain an ac-
quittal, and in other cases it has furnish
ed the rope for guilty man to hang
himself. The same right has been granted
to all persons arraigned for trial in
the Australian colonies, but strange as
it may seem, Great Britain still adheres
to the harsher practice of early times and
permits no defendant to give evidence.
The British attorney-general is now try
ing to get bill through parliament
granting this long deferred reform. 1t is
said that the bill will pass, but that it will
not apply to Ireland.
On the other hand the administration
Of Justice in the United States ia not a
source of national pride. We have rec.
ord of 10000 homicides yearly, and the
few convictions secured compare unfa-
vorably with the criminal statistics of
Great Britain and other countries. Great
Britain especially, is far behind us in the
number of unlawful killings, and quite
az far ahead in the detection and convic.
tion Of the killers.

AbOnQinable
Catarrh.

It Is not reasonable to expect to BE-
cured of any disease, no matter how
constant and persevering the treat
ment, when that treatment is alto
gether misdirected, and can not posi-
bly, reach the trouble.
This explains why those af;cted
with catarrh meet with so niue dis
enlargement, Though they faithfully
take the usual treatment consist ng of
sprays, washes, etc., and pass Trough
the summer without much diac omfort,
as soon as cold weather ret, rs, they
find themselves more firmly the grip
of the disease than ever. Such results
could hardly be expected Il The proper
treatment had been given.
Any one who has h; experience
with catarrh will readily admit that it
is one of the most obstinate of diseases;
it is easy to see, therefore, that it is
deep-seated, and that no remedy which
merely reaches the surface can have
the slightest effect upon it. The only
known cure for catarrh is real blood
remedy, one which gets at the seat of
the disease-the cause of the trouble
and forces it from the system. Such a
remedy is S. S. S. (Swift's Specific).
