ENGLISH LEADERS SPEAK.
Premier and Ex-Premier Both Ao'
dress Meetings.

London.-Sir Henry Campbell-Ban
herman, the premier, and Arthur J
Balfour, the former premier. respect
i've leaders of the two great partles
now drawn up in battle array In the
United Kingdom, addressed a large
audience recently.
The premier spoke at Dumferlne'
Scotland, making fiscal reform his
battle cry. In answering a question
he said he did not favor a separate In
dependent legislature for Ireland, but
intimated that that country should
have a legislature subordinate to the
imperial parliament
Mr.. Balfour, talking to a sympathet-
ic audience at Queens hall, London,
asked: Twill you have fiscal reform
or home rule, for this is the true
issue of the campaign"
Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman said
that the liberals would fight prOtec-
ton and fiscal reform during the cam
paign, as they did WINE in opposition,
while the former premier said that fis-
cal reforms wou.u be the first great
question with which the unionist party
would have to deal whenever it was
returned to power, because it was a
question in which the welfare of the
country was bound up.
Mr.. Balfour plainly indicated that
the whole attack of unionists through
out the present campaign would be
centered on the assumed intention OF
the liberal party to give Ireland con-
troll of it's own affairs through an ex-
executive responsible directly to an
Irish elective body. This, Mr.. Bal
four believed, would inevitably lead to
which he admitted would
be preferable to the continued parlia-
turmoil consequent on half
way measures.
Sir Henry ampbell-Bannerman de-.
voted almost his entire speech to an
attack on the fiscal proposition of the
unionists, and said it was the duty
Of the liberals to bury any party sup
porting Joseph Chamberlain.
Sir Edward Grey, the foreign secre-
tary, speaking to his constituents at
Belford. Northumberland, said that
The carrying out of Mr.. Chamberlain's
policy would mean the ruin of the ma
,ional prosperity. He assured his au-
1ience that the liberals had no inten-
ion of granting home rule, but that
hey hoped to do much for Ireland.

Not very long ago. popular magazine published an editorial article in which the writer asserted, in substance. that all disease should be regarded as criminal. Certain il k, that much of the sickness and suffering Of mankind is due to the violation of certain of Natures laws. But to say that all sickness should be regarded aS criminal, must appeal t0 every reasonable individual aS radically Wrong
 It would be harsh, unsympathetie, cruel, yes criminal, to condemn the poor, weak. over worked housewife who sinks under the heavy load of household cares and burdens and suffers from weak nesseS, various displacements of pelvic organs and other Arrangements peculiar to her sex.
 Freouent bearing of children. with it's ex- acting demands upon the system. coupled with the care worry and labor of rearing a large family. is often the cause of weak nesses derangements and debility which are aggravated by the many household cares and the hard, and never-ending work which the mother iS called upon to perform. Dr Pierce, the maker of that world-famed rem edy for womans peculiar weaknesses and ills-Dr Pierce's Favorite Prescription-says that one of the greatest obstacles to the cure of this class of maladies is the fact that the poor. over-worked housewife can not get the needed rest from her many household cares and labor to enable her to secure from the use of his " Prescription i" its full benefits.
