he was illicted to TIL United States

or six of my friends who have been troubled with
catarrh, and they have been cured also. I am salts
fed that if anyone will use DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery and Sage's Catarrh Remedy as
directed, they will be able to cure the worst case of
catarrh. I find the Golden Medical Discovery, the
greatest preparation for coughs-one which cures
them in a few days.7

cards up his sleeve.-Whist Opinion.
Sound Advice.
Perhaps more tricks are lost in i'm
portant whist matches through a lack
of courage than in any other way. A
failure to support the hand of the
partner properly is the secret OF a
large proportion Of the losses OF this
nature. On the partners call for
trumps the veriest tyro at the game
knows enough to lead the ace If he
happens to hold it regardless of the
number held in the suit, but how many
players realize that this play is in a
certain way applicable to analogous
situations in plain suits? Players are
quick enough to learn the importance
of throwing such strength to partners
support as they may happen TO hold
in his clearly declared suit. The ace
at the top of four or % would only
be led in rare cases, but with three OF
the partners suit no hesitation is
shown in leading the highest, and if the
lead is held following with the next
card in value. Tt is in cases where
there is some doubt as to the partners
suit that players are wanting in cour-
age. Often, although perfectly aware
that the suit that they are about to
lead is the only n in which the
partner can hold 'any strength, they
evince an unwillingness to render him
assistance to the extent of their abil-
fly. Heavy losses are often occasion
ed by the timidity of the course taken.
Recently in one of the big progressive
games after one enemy had shown
strength in diamonds a player found
himself in this situation. He had the
potential tenace in spades, his partner
having shown weakness in that suit.
He preferred to open his club suit,
leading the deuce of clubs from king,
ten, deuce. The result was that the
lone queen won fourth in hand, and
the ace was still retained second hand,
while his partner, holding five clubs
to the knave. was prevented from
making four club tricks that could
easily have been established by a lit
tie more forward play on the part of
his partner.
Anoth@ case was noted where north

One of the men behind the scenes in South Africa just at the present
time is Colonel Hire, the talented premier of Natal Owing TO the fact that
Natal has CHANGED to be the theatre Of such important events in the devel-
opment of the struggle between the Brttsher and the Boer, and even more
because of what is known Is "the black menace" the lei who are e
sponsible for the guidance and control of that colony during the last few
months have had their hands full. The political and administrative affairs
of Natal are looked after by a governor and a premier, who has the assist
ance of a. executive and legislative council The former body is composed
of the chief Justice of the colony, the senior officer commanding the
troops, the colonial secretary, treas urer and attorney general, the secre-
tay OF native affairs. the colonial engineer, the general man
ager of government railways and two members nominated by
the governor. The legislative council has 81 members, seven OF
whom ire crown nominees. The accompanying portrait of Colonel Hime
is from = recent photograph taken of that gentleman engaged with at
fairs Of state at his Office.

the lungs to each part of the body. As the iron
decreases there will be a deficiency in the oxy-
genizing of the blood. Instead of being bright
scarlet, it will be dark purple-as it is in forms of
lung disease terminating in consumption. If the
stomach and organs of digestion and nutrition fail in
their work, the health of the body at once suffers.
Whether you are weak or strong depends upon the
ability of the blood to select and distribute the nu-
tritive elements for the several organs. The blood is
made chiefly in the stomach, and uweak" stomach
means "weak" blood, blood deficient in vital energy.
The great curative power of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery lies in its power TO heal diseases
of the stomach and other organs of digestion and
nutrition, so that the processes by which nature
~sustains life may be ~unhampered and unhindered.
"Golden Medical Discovery" can't make a drop of
blood, can't weave a strand of tissue. 1t can and
does take away the diseased conditions which OBJ
struct these processes of nature, and hence, vweak
lungs, " vweak nerves, !" "weak heart" ETC., are per-
fectly and permanently cured by this great remedy.
Persons suffering from chronic forms of disease
are invited to consult DR.. B. v. Pierce, by letter
absolutely without charge. All correspondence
private. Address DR.. R. V. Fierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
