Hot Water For Cough.

A sudden and wearing attack of
coughing often needs immediate
attention, especially in consump-
tives and those chronically ill. In
an emergency, that ever-useful rem
edy, hot water, will often prove
very effective. It is much better
than the ordinary cough mixtures,
which disorder the digestion and
spoil the appetite. Water, almost
boiling, should be slipped when the
paroxysms come on. A cough, re-
sulting from irritation, is relieved
by hot water through the promo
ton of secretion, which moistens
the irritated surfaces. Hot water
also promotes expectoration, and so
relieves the dry cough.

Colonial Secretary Makes a Tart Reply
Rosebery's Talk About the War.

Rosebery's Talk About the War.
| London. Oct. %. Parliament was
7 prorogued yesterday after the war
credit had been passed. The
| queens speech simply thanked the leg
| islature for supplying funds to carry
ON the war and expressed her sorrow
at the loss of valuable lives as the
result of the war. Chamberlain was
attacked for the last time this session.
the first assailant being Gavin
Brown Clark. Radical. formerly consul
general of the TranSvaal, who ac-
cused him of publishing an emasculated
version of the Boer franchise bill
passed by the volksraad. Chamber
lain tartly repudiated this. He said
the bill was published exactly as re-
ceived from Secretary of State ReitZ.
Then Lloyd-GeOrge. Radical. de-
cIared that the offers OF the Transvaal
had been misrepresented, whereupon
Chamberlain jumped up and protested,
and the speaker interviewed. Lloyd
George then withdrew his expression
regarding misrepresentation
Probably the most important speech
recently was that of Lord ROsebery at
a private dinner of politicians Wednes-
day. in which he said that the Trans
vaal was not a very complicated ques-
tion. but merely the effort of a com
munity to put back the clock. Refer
ring to Majuba Hill. Lord ROsebery
said that GladstOnes action in 1881
was determined by the belief that the
power of Great Britain was great
that she could afford TO do things other
uations could not afford to do without
risk. The Beers regarded GladstOne's
magnanimity as IA proof of weakness
upon which they could encrOach.
Dwelling upon the uufriendliness of
the foreign press and foreign public
opinion he said: This is no little war.
There are nations watching with eager
ness every "trip. every stumble. and
much more. every catastrophe and dis
aster that may overtake Your arms.
War waged under these conditions,
therefore, is not Il little war. l do not
know why we should attract such ILL
feeling. There is one simple test that
will apply to the British empire 40
compared with other empires who
watch her with so much-l won't say
malevOlence. bu: candid feeling
IIaughterl-we would be only too glad
at the present moment to strike bar
gain with the rest of the world that
every frontier should remain as now.
''Of what other empire can that he
said? Yet we. who are not trying to
gain but to maintain an empire: We,
who in the best and highest sense are
the most conservative forces in the
world. are the object of the concealed
dislike of governments who. | think.
are less single-minded than ourselves"
in an impassiOnrd peroratlon calling
upon the nation to maintain a united
front. after speaking of Great Britain
as this lonely island in-theSe northern
seas viewed with such jealousy. Such
hostility, such Jared ambition by the
great empires of the world. who count
their armies with embattled millions"
he concluded amid stormy applause
with Shakcspeare's words:
'NauEht shall make us rue.
IF England 10 herself remain but
true"
