POET LAUREATE. OF ENGLAND
IN manque toijonrs quelque chose Ia belle
vie, qui fnit pas sur lie champ de bataille.
sur .rechafaud. on en- prison. -Lamennaisl
Tho we must die. let me not die
Fin ignominious strife,
With fate invincible, and sigh
To linger out my life;
With powers tlecayed. exfeebled. mind
And slowly slackening breath,
Burden. of pity to my kind,
And dead before my death:
No. let me perish, sword in hand
At Honor's sudden call,
Guarding my menaced MotherIand
And for her safety fail.
Or mount the scaffold with firm gaze,
Martyr to some great cause,
And end mS not inglorious days
For Freedoms outraged Laws.
What is this life except a trust
For nobleness and right
The torch which, while, We may, we
must
Still bear and keep alight; -
And when from our exhausted will
It fiickers, hand 1t on.
That 1T may burn and beckon still,
TIL Time itself be gone
But it, in unheroic days.
No great deed may be done:
Let me at least deserve this praise:
He lived and died as one
Who looked on Life with fearless eyes,
And with intrepid mind.
So leaves, where now he silent lies,
An honored name behind.".

-HE internal resources and for
eign commerce OF Western Aus
tralia, one of the largest states
of the Australian Common
wealth. are set forth in a report made
by Special Agent BurriIl TO the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor of
the United States.
The extent and value of the COM
merce is shown in the statement that
in 1891 the imports aggregated only
S. SOC, geo, while in 1905 they were
$4,000. 900 The exports in 1891 were
s4,00O.00O and in 1905 approximately
$4,000, 900. Mr.. Burrill's report In
part is as followss
Western Australians one of the larg-
est states OF the commonwealth In
area, containing approximately 1,O00,-
600 square miles, part of which is
enormously rich in mineral deposits
while within its boundaries are nne
grazing, farming and timber lands,
natural advantages which make 1t diff
ficult satisfactorily to explain It's popu-
lation of only 100000 In round numbers
Too. much Importance, however, should
not be attached to these figures, for
the growth OF the state during the
earlier years of its settlement was ex-
eeedingly slow. and ii was not until
1885, when gold was discovered in
what was known IS the Kimberly dis
trict, that steady increase was OBJ
servable. Subsequent rich mineral dis
coveries, the opening up of other great
natural Industries OF this state. and
the development OF general trade and
public works consequent upon these
discov cries have led TO a wholesome.
II comparatively small, annual increase
in the population, so that now pros
perity in Western Australia Is an es-
tablished fact and its inhabitants are
of the intelligent. energetic and ambi-
tious type. calculated further to pro-
mote ii.
Keeping pace with the development
of the natural resources of the state
has been the expansion of trade in all
classes of commodities, and in this ex
pansion the United States has partici-
pated to an enviable extent. How much
she may benefit in the future through
her commerce with this thriving COM
munity depends largely, as has been
pointed out in reports previously sub
can manufacturers. In 1891 the i'm
ports amounted, in round numbers. to
$500. 900, while in 1905 they were val
ued at approximately s35.000.000. The
exports OF the state show an increase
of from $4,000, 900. in round numbers,
in 1891 to approximately $50. 000.0 600 in
1905. The principal articles of import
in 1905. together with their estimated
value. in round numbers. are herewith

Bad Stomach Makes
Bad Blood.

You can not make sweet butter in a
foul, unclean churn. The stomach serves
as a churn in which to agitate, work up
and disintegrate our food as it is being
digeSted. II it be weak, sluggish and
foul the result will be torpid, sluggish
liver and bad impure blood.
The ingredients of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery are just such as best
serve to correct and cure all such de-
rangementS. 1t is made up without a
drop of alcohol in its composition: chem
icaIly pure. triple-retned glycerine being
used instead OF the commonly employed
alcohol. Now this glycerne is Of itself a
valuable medicine, instead OF deleteri-
Gus agent like alcohol especially in the
cure Of weak stomach. dyspepsia and the

pose. Ii is one of the best manufaCt-
ured products Of the present time in its
action upon enfeebled. disordered stomachs:
