Richard Rus, of Philadelphia was in
the year 1923 American minister to
London. He relates a conversation
which took place between Mr.. Canning
and himself on the 10th of August,
1928, upon this subject. Mr.. Rush
states that he inferred from a remark
of Mr.. Canning. and so Informed him.
that England would not remain passive
if France should attempt to seize the
recently liberated South American col
onies. Mr. Canning replied by asking
"what l thought my government would
say to going hand in hand with Eng
land in such policy" \ formal agree
ment, he thought. would not be neces-
sary and that it would be sufficient to
have it known that they held the same
opinion on the subject. to put down the
intention on the part of France if she
entertained it. Mr.. Rush waived di-
rect answer and said that he would
communicate the suggestion to his gov
eminent. This was the entering wedge.
On the 22d of the same month Mr..
Canning renewed the subject. He ask
ed if the moment had not arrived when
our two governments might understand
each other as to the Spanish-Amerlcan
colonies and, if so, whether it would
not be expedient for ourselves and ben
eficial for all the world that our princi-
pies in regard to them should be settled
and avowed. These principles were
briefly set forth on England's part as
follows:
First.-She conceived the recovery of
the colonies by Spain to be hopeless.
Second.-That the question of their
recognition as Independent states was
one of time and circumstances.
Third-That England was not els
posed, however. to throw any impedi-
ment in the way of an arrangement be-
tween the colonies and mother country
by amicable negotiation.
ForHth.-That she aimed at the pos
sessiuh of no portion Of the colonies her
SELF y
Fifth.-That she cOulQ not see the
transfer of any portion of them to any
other power with Indifference.
On the following day Mr.. Rush gave
a written answer to Mr.. Canning, in
which he cordially responded to every
statement and sentiment. including
disclaimer of any purpose or wish ON
the part of the United States to possess
any of the South American countries,
but said that he was not authorized to
declare in what manner his government
might deem it most eXpedient to avow
these principles or to express its disap-
probation Of the exceptional projects al
luded to. He informed Mr.. Canning
that he would promptly make known to
the president these views and princi-
ples of the British government.
When Mr. Rushs dispatch was re-
ceived, John Quincy Adams protested
vigorously against the acceptance of
Mr.. Canning's proposal, taking the
broad ground that if the United States
wished to do anything in the matter
she should act alone. He insisted
and his opinion was shared by Thomas
Jefferson, though combated by John c.
Calhoun-that England's motive was
purely selfish one, designed to involve

It'sa pitiful sight to look upon per-
son who is wasted to a mere shadow
with disease. So completely in the grasp
of the little death-dealing germs that her
every action, her voice, her stare, her
tread, all tell too plainly that the de-
mons are soon to have her life. Have
you not seen such a person, and felt a
lump rise in your throat as you tried to
offer her some cheering word, some sug-
gestion of comfort? If after seeing such
a person, and having the impression left
indelible on your mind. so that you would
remember her for days and weeks, you
should suddenly run across the same per-
son 4 few months afterward, and behold
in her quite a different person, this
time instead of hollow-chested, sunken-
checked, pale, stopped woman, with a
dep cough, which raised blood and
mucus, you should see bright-eyed
woman, straight, erect, tinge of color
in her cheek, her face full and round, her
figure plump and robust, her voice soft
and sweet, with no cough, her suffer-
ings all gone, her disease entirely over
come and almost forgotten-whatw would
YOU think? Would you not ask quickly,
Why! What has wrought this mira
Gle ?" Now that is the exact experience
that I passed through with Miss Nettie
Clark, of Hanson Street, Boston. Miss
Clark had consumption, and she had it

given up to die. One day met her and
never beheld such a change in person
in my life. 1 could hardly believe my

ness of Mr.. Adams and doubtless also
by the fact that the other members Of
the cabinet sided with the secretary Of
state, Mr.. Monroe finally yielded.
That portion of Mr.. Monroe's mes
sage which has come to be known as
"the doctrine was as follows:
1--WE owe it, therefore, to candor and
to the AMIGA bic relations existing be-
tween the United States and those
powers [any European poWer] to de-
clare that we should consider any at
tempt on their part to extend their
system to any portion of this hemi-
sphere as dangerous to our peace and
safety. With the existing colonies or
dependencies of any European power
we have not interfered and shall not
interfere. But with the governments
who have declared their independence
and maintairc it, and whose indie
pendence we have on great cOnsidera-
ton and on just principles acknowl-
edged, we could not view any interpo-
sition for the purpose of expressing
them or controlling in any other man
ner their destiny by any European
power in any other light than az the
manifestation of an unfriendly DISPOSE
ton toward the United States"
Upon only two occasions before the
present one has the principle of the
Monroe doctrine been dangerously
trenched upon The first trouble occur
red during Mr.. Cleveland's second term
as president. 1t arose over dispute as
to the boundary line between Venezue-
la and British Guiana. England's at
titude had become very aggressive and
it was certain that unless interfered
with she would attempt to enforce her
alleged territorial rights. Then Presi-
dent Cleveland stepped in and announc-
ed that the United States would ascer-
tain the location of the true boundary
line and would then ''resist by every
means in it's power as willful agrees
sion upon its rights and interests, the
appropriation by Great Britain Of any
lands or the exercise of governmental
jurisdiction over any territory which,
after investigate we have determined
of right to belong to Venezuela"
The second case in which the Monroe
doctrine became prominent interna-
tional issue occurred in 1895. when a
British squadron appeared in the har.
Dor of Corinto. Nicaragua. for the pur-
pose of collecting claim for damages
of $77,5OO. England had notified the
United States of her intentions, and
there had been no objection. President
Zelaya protested that the British claim
was unwarranted and upon the receipt

If any one will stop and think minute,
and ascertain how "Blood Wine'' works,
he will readily see why it cures disease.
Consumption is produced by little germ
not one but millions. When the lungs
are weak they swarm into them, and
gnaw down the paper like walls. This
decomposition of the lungs is consump-
ton. These germs only thrive where
there is weakness. The person never lived
who contracted consumption with a pair
of strong, healthy lungs. "Blood Wine''
prevents consumption by keeping the
lungs healthy. 1t cures consumption by

THE DYING SOLDIER.
The sun was sinking in the west
And fell with lingering rays
Through the branches OF forest
Where a wounded soldier lay.
Meath the shades of the palmetto tree,
Meath the southern sultry sky,
Far from his loved New England home,
They laid him down to die.
A group had gathered round him,
His comrades in the fight;
A tear courSed down each manly cheek
AS they babe their last goodnight.
One dear old companion
Was kneeling by his side,
Striving to stay the life's blood,
But all in vain he tried.
His soul filled with deep anguish
AS he saw it was all in vain;
Upon the form OF his loved companion
The tears fell down like rain.
"Harry;" spoke the dying soldier;
Harry, weep no more for me,
For l am crossing the dark river,
Beyond where all is free.
"Listen, comrades, stand up nearer,
Listen to what l have to say,
l have story l will tell you
Ere my soul shall pass away.
sit is far away in old New England,
In the old Pine Tree State,
There is one who for my coming
With her saddened heart shall wait.
ga fair young girl, my sister,
My darling and my pride;
My loving care from bOyhoOd,
For I'D no one else beside.
"When our country was in danger
She called for volunteers,
She flung her arms around him
And, bursting into tears,
"Whispered, go, my darling brother,
Drive those traitors from our shore;
Though my heart needs thy presence,
But thy country needs thee more.
"Though my heart seems breaking
l will not bid you stay,
But here in the old homestead
will wait you day by day.
"I've no mother, she lies sleeping
Meath the churchyard sod.
1t is many, many years
Since her spirit went to God.
"I've no father, he lies sleeping
Deep in the cold, dark sea;
I've no brother nor no kindred,
There was only Nell and me.
81 have served my country truly,
l have given her my all,
And but for that dear sister,
l would be content to fall
''Stand up nearer, comrades,
Listen to my dying prayer.
Who will be to her a brother,
Shield her with fathers care ?'
Then the soldiers spake together,
Like one voice it seemed to fall;
eve will be to her a brother,
Protect her one and ALL
A smile, radiant in it's brightness,
A halo around him shed;
One quick, convulsive shudder
And the soldier boy was dead.

With his knapsack for his pillow
And his muSket on his breast
