arrangement was entered into by all
parties, the price Of lead was cut and

SALISBURY A ToIlER


British fremiers Health Affected by
~Unremitting Labors.
Lord ~Salisbury's condition of health
is a subject of the closest interest in
every chancellerie of Europe. For
many years his devotion to work and
neglect of exercise tended to accumu-
late physical troub.ss which are diff
cult to shake OFF in the evening of life.
A visitor at Hatfield, when Lord Sal
isbury was still foreign secretary, de-
scribes the life led by his lost as N
of continued and unrestricted toll. re-
lieved only by conversation with his
guests and his family during meals.
After a hard mornings work. Lord
Salisbury would come to luncheon,
which would occupy about th%ree-quar-
tiers OF an hour. He would leave the
table and return Immediately to his
desk, II with the interval of a few
minutes would work straight on till
dinner time. At dinner he would de-
light the company with the brilliancy
OF his conversation, but Immediately
after dinner he would return to his
desk and work on till IL or IL 80. Few
business men or lawyers have toiled
at the desk with more persistency or
concentration Of purpose thar the pres
ent premier.
His only fault as an administrator
has been the inability to delegate to
others the most trihing duties. He has
been in the habit of answering with
his own hand letters of little impor-
lance written by people who have no
claim upon him, The consequence OF
this patriotic devotion to duty has been
premature old age. The actual bur-
den of letteT-writing now resting upon
Log Salisbury is lighter than at any
period during his previous tenure OF
office.

Old JOE, THE NIGHT wAroHMAN

U-U JOE, HE CHI WATCHMAN
(From the Pail Mall Gazette, London.)
How often on returning home late
on a dreary winters night has our
sympathy gone out to the poor old
night-watchman as he sat huddled up
over his cage fire, overlooking the ex-
~cavations which our city council in
their wisdom or otherwise, allow the
different water companies to make SO
frequently in u congested streets.
In all weathers and under all climatic
conditions. the pool old n~ight-watch-
man is Obliged to keep watch over the
companies property, and to see that
the red lights are kept burning. What
a life. to be sure; what privations and
hardshipsI; no wonder they have aches
n pains. which nothing but st. ia
cob's Oil can alleviate.
"Old Joe" is IL the employ of the
Lambeth Water Works, and is well
and favorably known. He has been a
night-watchman for many years, in
the course OF which he has undergone
many experiences. What with wet and
cold, he contracted rheumatism and sci
atica, which fairly doubled him up, and
u began to look a serious matter for old
Joe whether he would much longer be
able to perform his duties, on which
his good wife and himself depended
for a livelihood; but as it happened, a
passerby, who had for some nights no.
ticed Old Joe's painful condition, pre-
sented him with a bottle of St Jacobs
Oil, and told him to use 1t. Old Joe
followed the advice given; no crawled
home the next morning and bade his
wife rub his aching back with the st.
Jacobs Oil "a gentleman gave him."
and undoubtedly his wife did rub, for
when old Joe e on duty at night he
met his friend n benefactor. to
whom he remarked: Them Oils you
gave me. Guv'nor, did give me a doing;
they was like pins Inc needles for a
time. but look at me now" and old
Joe began to run and jump about like a
young colt. All pain. stiffness and
had gone: he had been tell
Ing everybody he met what st. Jacobs
Oil had done for him. Old Joe says
now he has but one ambition in life,
and tina is to always to be able to
keep a bottle OF st. Jacobs Oil by him
for he says there is nothing like it in
the world.
st. Jacobs Oil serves the rich and
the poor. high and low the same way.
1t has conquered pain for fifty years.
and 1t will do the same to the end of
time. 1t has no equal. consequently
no competitor; 1t has many cheap imi-
tations. but simple facts like the above
tell an honest tale with which moth
Ing on earth can compete.
