Manufacturers, ommercial interests do

Mr.. John Morley, whose distinction
as a statesman was associated with
those struggles for Irish home rule.
which Mr.. Gladstone lead with spien-
did though unsuccessful vigor, will
write the biography of the greatest OF
Englands S recent public men. He is the
choice of the Gladstone family. For
MANY reasons he will prove most
faithful and discriminating biographer,
and his exceeding charm of literary
sty!e can scarcely fail to make the work
in its way masterpiece, for his mas
te1y in literature was always superior
to his skill in politics Yet one is in
clined to wonder at the selection. Mr.
Gladstone's greatness had many facets,
but fundamental to them all was his
abiding and enthusiastic devotion to the
Christian faith. 1t impregnated all his
life TO its innermost fibers. 1t colorec
all his thoughts. His contributions tC
magazines for many years before ri:
death were in the main in the line o.
religious polemic, and he broke lancei
with such men as Huxley, Renan anC
Haeckel with the zeal Of a paladin. Mr.
Morley, on the other hand, is one o
the most pronounced and cauAtic agnos
tics Of his time. His most brilliant rep
utation was achieved in writing tn
lives OF voltaire. Rousseau and Dide
rot, a work of love, and now he is
write the life of the Christian Glad
stone, which is also work CT love
This shows indeed how versatile MI
Morley is. Yet one would have fancie
that the Gladstones, who fully shal

v tant an element in the character OF Il

That is one of the sublimest lines in all
literature. 1t is the final definition of love
by the worlds greatest reader of the human
who truly love, love in this sublime way.
Men seldom do.
Woman's most glorious endowment is
the power to awaken and hold the pure
and honest love of a worthy man. When
she loses it and still loves on, no one in
the wide world can know the heart agony
she endures. The woman who suffers
from weakness and arrangement of her
special womanly organism soon loses the
power to sway the heart of man. Her
general health suffers and she loses her
good looks, her attr2ctiveuess, her anna
bility and her power and prestige as a
woman. DR.. r. V. Pierce, of Buffalo N Y,
with the assistance of his staff of able ply
sicians, has prescribed for many thousands
of women. He has devised a, perfect and
scientific remedy for women's ailments It
is known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton 1t is positive specific for all weak
nesses diseases, disorders, displacements,
irregularities, and debiitating drains pc
culiar to women. 1t purifes, regulates,
strengthens and heals Medicine dealers
sell it, and no honest dealer will advise
you to accept a substitute that he may
make little larger profit.

They will never do so now.

That the Maine she could sink
And nothing more would be said.

And how our boys one and all have gain

know
Who was the fellow who gave the knock

Steptoe.
But what was it cleaned 'em all out so!
Now the Dockery boys have gone back
to their dad,
And to stay at home | think they better
had;
For since election day their faces have
been sad.
But what was it cleaned EN- out so!
