Lord RoSeberry has declared that
he is nc longer member Of the Liber-
al party and hints that there are
others who think as he does upon the
Irish and other important questions
Of the day.

wrote OF Hon. Joseph Chsmb ,rlain:
"Chamberlain is the first politician
we have had of the American type,
and he is destined to give great deal
of trouble"
The following paragraph may inter.
est all Scotchmen: There has just
died at Gobshealach, Ardnamurchan
Miss Mary Stewart, who had lived un.
der five sovereigns, and whose lite
completely spanned the 10th century.
She was born in 1902, and up to the
middle of last summer she was able to
perform wonderful amount of work,
and was In 4ull possession Of her facul.
ties. Her eyeslght never failed her.
For the past six months, however, ,she
was confined to bed much and lost
strength rapidly. Miss Stewards pa
rents were farmers on the Ardnamur
chan estate. OF the language Of the
Saxon she was utterly ignorant, but
her vernacular Gaelic she could apeak
with singular idiomatic purity. Last
year she received from Queen Alexan
dra, through Miss Knollys, q basket
Of sweets and quantity Of tea, etc.
on the queen ascertaining that sh'
had completed 10S years. The parce
was accompanied by gracious ant

The Health Magazine recommends
that, when you contract cold, before
resorting to drugs of any kind, try the
following process:-1f able, go out into
the open air and breathe copiously and
deeply for about twenty times, repeat
ing the operation every hour until cured.
If unable to go out, have the windows
and doors open, wrap yourself in
blankets or other warm clothing, dur
which time do as just directed. Some
persons having had cough for six
week have got rid of it by this process;
also cured themselves of colds newly
contracted. Therefore, everywhere try
to cultivate full and frequent lung in
flstion by breathing clear out, clear in,
and low downfall is, make all your
breathing as when taking long breath;
and this will have tendency to throw
off the waste materials at The pores, and
revitalise the blood, and thereby impart
warmth and energy to the system. See
that the rooms are we'll ventilated, es
pecially your sleeping apartment. Weal
