Liver
IT Y lIlboGDCgkDNGe,

When the yellow flag of quarantine
is hoisted over a dwelling it means disease
and danger. So when the yellow flag
flies in the face-when the cheek is sallow
and the clear white Of the eye is dyed
saffron there is danger. It is lirer
troviie. The liver is one Of the most i'm
portant organs of the body. On the
proper discharge of its functions depend
human health and happiness. When the
liver fails Of its duty, poisons at once be-
gin to generate, and other organs of the
body become involved. Never neglect
the liver if you value health. If you are
suffering from liver trouble, begin at

like to see America planted in the Phil
ippines, enabling her to exercise po-
tent voice in behalf of the policy of an
open door in the far East, but it is diff
cult to convince the average English
man that he cannot by himself keep
that open door if the ministers show a
stiff enough back and England main
tains the supremacy of the sea.
He begins, too, to appreciate the force
of the opinions of many leading Amer
leans which are being published here.
Chauncey Dewey, for example, has been
very emphatic in insisting that America
must remain absolutely foot-Ioose from
entangling alliances, though that need
not prevent the solidity of the English
speaking race in a common cause.
THE MOVEMENT ASSUMES SHAPE.
1t is only two weeks since the move
ment for the proposed alliance took
definite form in the appointment of a
committee whose duties are to try to
promote better relations and closer
union" between America and Great Bril-
tain. This committee is not to touch
in any way upon the present war Amer
lea is conducting against Spain but
the widespread interest in the alliance
may be inferred when it is repeated that
the committee proposes to enroll ten
thousand representative men and wo-
men of Great Britain on its books.
On the day the first list was pub
lished more than hundred had already
signified their intention of joining the
committee, including the Archbishop Of
Canterbury, the Archbishop Of York,
the Duke of Fife, the Earl of Jersey,
Earl Grey, the Bishops of London, Dur
ham, Winchester, Chester, Hereford,
Liverpool Manchester, Worcester, Ri
pom and Peterborough Viscount Peel,

Of having things just as we want

other countries besides Spain
DO the people on the islands want

yes, most of them do"
"Why?"
"Oh, | don't know, unless it is be-
cause they think belonging to Europe
is more profitable than belonging to
the United States"

as to their extension of their dominions,
until Dewey changed all this by his
victory in the Philippines.
1t was not alone the current of Amer
tcan thought that was changed with the
taking of the Philippines. 1t is a ia
miliar story now, the place the United
States assumed among the Powers with
that triumph of her arms. But no
where was its effect more quickly real
1zed than by the rulers and the ruled Of
England.
To print a1ist of the names of Brit
aims statesmen who have declared
themselves in favor of it would be to
include almost every great name
known to the world at large. Not only
do statesmen favor it, but also the dig
nataries of the church, members of the
diplomatic corps, and all of England S
foremost men of letters.
This new alliance, as it usually al
luded to by the papers here, is net very
clear probably as to the nature and ex-
tent Of its scope to either the everyday
aAmerican or Englishman. And certain
Wy, to Americans, Canada does not enter
very closely into his ideas of what John
Bull is after. If he thinks of it at all,
he in all likelihood, fances that his
! British cousin has his eyes on either
Cuba or the Philippines. But here,
and particularly among the literary
men who take an interest In public af-
fairs, Canada is the biggest toad in the
puddle.
CANADAiS POSITION.
How much this counts with English
men is best illustrated by the remark
made by an English novelist who has
perhaps the greatest hold of any Eng
lish writer on the American reading
public. No" he said, decisively,
"Cuba, Venezuela, and Hawaii don't
really matter. If ever England and
America should be seriously embroiled,
it would be over Canada. That is why,
though / dare not say it in public, my
life would not be worth living in Eng
land If did, I would personally well
come Canada's entry into the repub-
lic"
{, Few Englishmen would avow any
