which anyone can perform for himself
in the following manner: Cut hard
boiled eggs into very small pieces, as
it would be if masticated, place the

at the end Of which time the egg will
be as completely digested as 1t would
have been in the healthy stomach OF

The point of this experiment. is that
what Stuart's DYSPEPSIA Tablets will do

the egg or meat in the stomach, and
nothing else will rest and invigorate
the stomach so safely and effectually.

criticism here of the State Depart
ment's suggestion that embassies here
after shall be called american" thus
uttered a respectful protest against the
assumption of the larger name, Sir Ed
ward proceeded to refer to the miser-
able underpayment of American judges
and Americas waste of energies in pro-
viding for survivors of the Civil War
and in building ironclads which she
would never use.
ambassador Choate, replying, said
that Americans were quite satisfied
with their name and then referred to
the recent election in the United States
as a splendid tribute to a great man.
Having remarked upon the regenera-
ton of public life in America regard
less of party, Choate alluded to the
ever-growing friendship between Great
Britain and America as a reason for
Thanksgiving, and added: II asked
Lord Lansdowne If he was ready to
negotiate a treaty of arbitration.
" Why said Lord Lansdowne, it
goes without saying.
Continuing, Choate maintained that
many things go without saying be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States; above all, that they should avoid
all possible causes of offense and settle
their differences by peaceful means.
He paid a high tribute to the Arch
bishop of Canterburys 'rediscovery of
America and dilated upon the value
of visits to America by such men as
the Archbishop and John Morley.
The Archbishop of Canterbury, pro-
posing President Roosevelt's health, ex-
pressed sincere thanks for the great
hospitality with which he was received
in America. He said America faced
problems greater than the world had
ever seen, but by a stroke of genius
had found the man to conquer the diff
ficulties.
I'VE on this side,' said the Arch
bishop, mot less than brothers to you

take courage because the destinies OF
America are safe in Roosevelt's hands.

LED HIS COUNTRY SAFELY.

Leu Ills OOUNIh1 SAf ELI.
Chiefly, however, the value of his in
fiuence was shown when the time came
to solve the problems of the Philip
pines. No other statesman could have
led the people of the United States to
agree so nearly unanimously in the an
neXation of those far off islands and
the acceptance of the responsibilities of
their government. He led us safely
into this path because he made it clear
to us that 1t is the right path; that for
America, empire does not mean impe-
rialism; that there can be an expan
siCn of liberty as we'll as an expansion
of despotism: and that when the stars
and stripes are carried across the seas
they take with them every guarantee
of present good and future hope that
they have held out to humanity since
first they were unfurled in the cause of
freedom by the hand of Washington.
Like all great men, Mckinley be-
lieved the duties of life are decreed
for us by an overruling providence.
and that in its highest sense history
is nothing less than the record of
Gods dealing with mankind. Over
and over again, while the issue was as
yet undecided in the public mind, did
he impress upon the people that the
establishment of order in the Philip
pines is a duty which under divine di-
rection we owe to humanity even
more than to ourselves. Once he
said: Wherever we have raised our
flag we have raised il not for con-
quest, not for territorial aggrandize-
ment, not for national gain, but for
civilization and humanity On an
other occasion he said: Porto Rico
and the Philippines have come to us
in the providence of God and we must
carry the burden, whatever it may be,
in the interest of civilization, human
ity and liberty So again he said:
when the mists fade away and we
see with clear vision. may we not go
forth rejoicing in strength which
has been employed solely for human
ity and always tempered with justice
and mercy, confident of an ability to
meet the exigencies that await us, be-
cause confident that our course is
one of duty and our cause that of
right?''
Holding these high aims ever in his
mind, and mounting steadily to ever
higher planes of craftsmanship, his in
tellectual horizon widened as he rose.
In the end he became not the leader
of a nation only, but a great master
of world politics and stood unques-
toned the foremost statesman of his
time. When the long menacing
problem of China precipitated itself
upon the world by the Boxer outrages,
civilization looked to him for light and
leadership; nor did it look in vain
His declaration of American policy
toward China not only satisfied the
interests of the nations. but cheered
the conscience of humanity itself, and
the time may yet come when the
American people will uphold the Nc
Kinley doctrine in Asia as they up
hold the Monroe doctrine in America.

and enduring part of an inviolable
foreign policy.
