BALFOUR Will WATT
CABINET COUNCIL DECISION IS
AGAINST HURRIED ACTION.
Suaqe stiOn in official Organs That
Premier Should Resign Caused
Quite a FURRY in British POlif.
iCaI CirCleS-NO Official State.
ment Likely.

London, Nov. 24.-Tremendous ac-
tivity developed in political circles
yesterday, consequent upon the circu-
lation of well-founded report that
Premier Balfour had decided to bring
his ministry to a close and to directly
or indirectly appeal to the country.
Rumors regarding the resignation of
the cabinet and the dissolution of par
lament have been thick for three
months past, but when two of the lead
ing government organs yesterday al
most in the same terms "suggested"
the immediate resignation Of the pre-
mier OIL account of the unmendable
breach in the Unionist party over the
fiscal question, the "suggestion" was
looked upon as having been instigated
by Mr.. Balfour himself. This was
strengthened by the knowledge that
prior to the publication Of the editori-
ais Mr.. Balfour met certain influential
persons at his official residence in
Downing street.
The Liberals are inclined to resent
Mr.. Balfour's resignation at the pres.
ent moment. They contend that the
premier should remain in office few
weeks longer and himself dissolve par
lament and appeal to the country.
The Liberals see no reason why the
political opposition should put them
selves to the inconvenience of forming
a government in the dark without
knowing what forces they were COM
msndipg in parliament, and they OBJ
ject to what they designate as Mr..
Bslfour's tactical mancuver," where
by the Liberal attack would be turned
into a defense before election and Mr..
Balfour would be given free hand to
arrange with Mr.. hamberlain for
concerted action against the Liberal
party.

Liberal Leader for Home Rule.

Stirling, Scotland, Nov. 24.-Sir
Henry Campbell Bannerman, leader Of
the Liberal party, speaking here last
night, plainly outlined his attitude to-
ward home rule for Ireland. He said
that the only way to heal the differ
ences of the Irish government and to
make Ireland strong instead of weak
was to give the Irish people the man.
sgement of their own domestic affairs.
Opinions regarding Ireland in this re-
spect, he said, were becoming stronger.

FREE TREATMENT,
FREE MEDICINES,
FREE CONSULTATION.
This is Dr.. Krum's Liberal Invitation Addressed
to All Chronic Sufferers.
He Welcomes Every Sufferer From Catarrh Bronchitis,
Rheumatism, Stomach, Liver and Kidney Diseases,
or Any Other MaIady, to One Weeks Treatment and
Medicines Free Of Charge-What He Means by Free

You have heard of free doctors, of free
medicines Of free consultation, ana of
free treatment. You have had much eN-
perience with these schemes; you have
come to know them in their. different
guises. In spite OF the apparent gem
uineneYs, and the apparent generosity OF
the word free" has been used as a bait
for profits. Underneath somewhere there
has always been the idea to exact from
the patient payment for something II not
for consultation, then for treatment; Is
not for treatment, then Tor medicine, II
not for medicine, then for eXaminatiOn.
The bait has been free, but the fish have
been fried just the same. This thing that
can be called by no lighter name than
fraud has turned the credulity OF "A natu-
rally credulOus people INTO suspicion and
contempt IL is for this reason that in this
announcement Dr.. krum is compelled TO
make it very clear and very plain and
very emphatic that this invitation means
Just what Il says. and all who come to
the Offices OF the krum Medical Institute
VIII, without the paysnent Of one penny,
be received rs cordially, examined as
carefully and supplied with medicines as
hberally and as consceE.iously as though
they paid the highest fees ever charged
by specialists.
The purpose Of this invitation is simply
that the public may obtain without tax,
charge or assessment an adequate idea
Of what can be accomplished by the ap-
plicaton OF modern methods and con-
scientiOusly applied scientific treatment.
Every person to whom life has become
a burden by reason Of the flthiness and
suffering OF common catarrh of the head,
nose ana throat may, before February
I, apply at the offices Of the Krum Med
cal Institute. 604 Market street. and re-
ceive from DR.. krum one weeks treat
ment and medicine free of charge.
Every person who has become dis
couraged and tired of the vain fight they
have been making against the cough.
