Delude Themselves.

1t is a fact little known, but 1t is the
truth, nevertheless, that though Eng
land obtained possession of Gibraltar
as far back as 1904, the Spaniards to
this day contend that they still have
their proprietary interest in that
mighty fertilization, and are not yet
conquered. With this idea ever in their
mind they have appointed since that
date. and still appoint with regularity
and perseverirg conscientiousness, a
Spansh governor general of Gibraltar,
as often as the Office falls vacant. OF
course, the British governor is the gem
uine governor, and the Spanish official
eve sets foot in Gibraltar; but that
little anomaly does not in the least af-
feet the prevailing idea and consequent
action of the Spaniards. When about
two years ago. the then Spanish "gov-
ernor" of Gibraltar died-in Spain-he
was buried with all the pomp BETTING
his rank, and with due solcmnity his
successor was appointed. All of which
evidences the density of the dons to
grasp the logic of events and proves
that though they may ''persevere" in
their claims. the perseverance is not
much to Ee dreaded. Probably when
they lose Cuba the fiction Of a captain
general may obtain in like manner. 1t
will be amusing-not dangerous.

speaks English not only with perfect

proficiency he has given many proofs.

Jams Pink Pills for The First Sergeant
Pale People," said Mr.. Davies, but new
er knew their worth until I used them
for the cure of chronic dyspepsia. For
W years 1 suffered and doctored for that
%aggravating trouble, but could only be
helped temporarily. .
Il think dyspepsia is one of the most
stubborn of ailments, and there is scarce
" a clerk or Office man but what is more
or less a victim. Some days 1 could eat
anything. while al other times l would
be starving. Those distressing pains
would force me to quit work.
81 tried the hot-watee treatment thor
0ughly, but it did not affect my case. I
have tried many advertised remedies. but
they would help only for a time. A friend
of mine recommended DIR. Williams Pink
Pills, but I did not think much of them.
II finally was induced to try the pills
and commenced using them. After taking
a few doses l found much relief. l do not
remember how many boxes of the pills I
used, but I used them until the old trou-
Bile stopped. l know they will cure dys-
pepsia of the worst form and I am pleas
ed to recommend them"
