proore,. Of The Peace Conference.

London. April 1.-THE comparatively
brief duration OF the conferences at
Elcrksdorp Is regarded MS an indica-
tion that the Rocr leaders found little
difficulty In agreeing upon some basis
OF negotiation. The transfer of the me-
gotiations to Pretoria. where both Lord
Kitchener and Lord Milner, the British
high commissioner in South Africa, are
at present. is interpreted by the morn

are prepared to make formal peace pro-

that he deserved to have been given

ing nation would have permitted such
interference in its legislative affairs.

Wanted.

We would like to ask, through the col
umns of your paper, if there is any per-
son who has used Green's August Flower
for the cure of Indigestion, Dyspepsia,
and Liver Troubles that has not been
cured-and we also mean their results,
such as sour stomach, fermentation of
food, habitual co~stiveness, nervous dys-
pepsia, headaches, respondent feelings,
sleeplessness-in fact, any trouble con-
nected with the stomach or liver? This
medicine has been sold for many years in
all civilized countries, and we wish to cor
respond with you and send you one of our
books free of cost. If you never tried
August Flower, try one bottle first. We
have never known of it's failing. If SO.
something more serious is the matter with
you. Ask your oldest druggist.

There is no more reason why the Unit
ed States should be specially represent
ed at the coronation of King Edward
than at similar events in other countries.
If gentlemen wish to go at their own ex-
pense, it is not altogether unreasonable
to give them the dignity of special rep
r~esentatives. Not a cent should they
have, though, from the public treasury.
Captain Clark is unfortunate in hat he
has no private fortune. If the rule should
be broken for anybody, it should be brok-

The English Navy.

Although the naval strength of England
is equal to that of any three continental
powers, 1t is stated they are planning sew
eral more powerful warships. They are
determined to nave the best and most eff
cient navy in the world. In the selection
of a family medicine we see this same
spirit being put forth more and more
every day, because the people are de-
termined to have the best remedy thai
can be obtained. 1t Is impossible to pur-
chase a better or more reliable medicine

member of the family can take 1t safely,
with the assuranc that 1t will positively
do them good. 1t will restore vigor to
the system and cure Indigestion, dyspep-

laria.

CLARK AND THE CORONATION.

The manliness of Captain Charles E
Clark in declining to go to the
of King Edward as representative of the
American navy because of his poverty,
cannot fail to increase the esteem in
which that gallant seaman is held by
his countrymen. Other members Of the
special embassy offered to contribute to-
ward Captain Clark's expenses, but he
refused to become an object of charity.
The special ambassador, Mr.. Reid. his
secretaries, and Brigadier-General Wilson
are all wealthy men. They can well
afford to pay their own way and Captain
Clarks too, but he would not permit it.
Naval officers and statesmen. who like
junkets at government expense, are say
ing that an appropriation for entertain
ment of this character should be made
SO that poor men can be selected as spec
ial ambassadors. AS a matter of fact, the
money in the United States treasury
should De used for the benefit of all the
people. 1t is hard to see how a glittering
delegation in silk stockings. gold buck
les, small swords and other things can
possibly benefit the average taxpayer.
Foreign countries are not in the habit
or ending special ambassadors to Wash
ington when Presidents of the United
States take the oath of office.
An American President is surely as
exalted an official as the king of Eng
land or any other monarch. Indeed, he is
more exalted, for he is the one man cho-
sen from millions to be the executive
head of the nation, while kings are kings
by accident of birth. Monarchs are all
right for those who like them. The Her
aid has no fault to find with Englishmen
