A Pleasant story About the Kaiser.
Berlin papers recall an incident
which gives a glimpse of the kaiser's
character under it's most genial aspect.
Two or three years ago.. when Mcneil
had just kept his eightieth birthday,
his imperial patron resolved to give
him a pleasant little surprise. He IN
vited him to party, and when the old
painter entered the drawing room he
found himself face to face with a liv-
ing production Of his own picture,
Frederick the Greats Flute Concert"
All the members Of the court circle, as
we'll as the emperor and empress, wore
the exact costumes and assumed the
precise pose which he had delineated.
The young kaiser then stepped forward
and welcomed the guest, and at the
supper which followed Mcneil was put
in the place of honor on the right hand
of the kaiserin.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine IN the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for indigestion or bill
iousness. Doctors were scarce and
they seldom heard of appendicitis
nervous prostrstion or heart failure,
etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fer
mentation of undigested food, regu-
late the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of the
system, and that is all they took
when feeling dull and bad with head
aches and other aches. You only
need few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form. to make you

The Future of south Africa.

Lord Salisbury, who was enter

South African policy.
"The stop the war party have used
my name," said the premier, SIN sup

promised there should be- no annexa-
alton of territory or annexation of
gold fields. I never gave a pledge.
I never meant to give a pledge, cloud
Cheers)
II stated simple historical fact.
We we're accused of going to war for
lust of gold and territory. It was
one of those calumnies which, under
the favoring influences of DR.. Leyds,
spread itself over the press of Eu-
rope. Nothing could be more untrue.
We went to war to abate oppression
of the queens subjects IN the Trans
vRal and because our remonstrences
were met by an insulting ult1metum,
to which, if the queens government
had submitted, her power, not only
tn South Africa, bat over her colon
les and dependencies, would have
been at an end. We were forced in
to war by the action of our oppon-
ents.
"To say that because we repudiat-
ed the greed of territory we therefor
bound ourselves never to annex any
territory is a most Ridiculous miscon-
struetion. dwell on this point be-
cause this matter of annexation is
about to become burning question.
I'VE have made tremendous sac
rifce of blood and treasure in this
conflict. There are misleading proph-
cts. whose action bulks as large in
the columns of newspapers as the
action of more influential and power
full people, who misled the unlueky
rulers of the Transvasl to continue
resistance far beyond the time when
all resistance has ceased to be even
possibly successful. These men are
Perpetually pressing Us to make some
conditions, to offer some arranged
stipulRtions that shall leave a shred
OF independence to the republics.
Our only certainty of preventing re-
currence of this fearful war is to in
sure that never again shall such vast
acCumulstions of ornaments occur,
and that NOT A SHRED OF THE
FORMER INDEPENDENTS OF
THE REPUBLIC SHALL RE-
MAIN. (Oheers)
"We are not yet at the end of the
war, but shall venture to lay it
down as a primary condition of any
future settlement that precautions
will be taken of such character that
such g war will never oesurr again.
OF course, what measures will be nee
sssary it is impossible at any moment
to determine because that largely, de-
ponds upon the action and temper of
those with whom we have to deal.
81 have already intimated that
their resistance has gone beyond the
aimit to which resistance could wisely
go. It is not for us to criticise their
acton in what they IRE pleased to
call self defense, but they have acted
so that every bitterness created by
the war and every severance of class
90 and races have been stimulated nv
every measure they have taken; and
30 they go on.
SIT will also be our duty to protect
those native races who have been sc
sorely afflicted, and at the same time
80 TO conduct their policy that SO far
