quickly. And who was that?" de-
manded Mr.. Carnegie. Robert Bruce"

more, 1900 convinced China that
Christianity is here to stay; the
sword, the fire and the stake of tor
ture cannot extirpate it.
Since 1900 each year in China's his.
tory has accomplished more progress
than formerly was achieved in CEN
turtles. Undoubtedly this country has
made greater strides in the past six
years than in the preceding two mil
lenniums. The change has been so
swift, so startling, so Kaleidoscope,
that the world outside cannot compre-
bend it. Missionaries who come back
after years furlough have to pinch
themselves to make sure that they are

Kai who created and controlled the
modern army of 10000 men which Is
one of the assets of new China. It
was Yuan Shin Kai who made over
into a modern city large part of old
native Tien-Tsin. It was Yuan Shin

Picking police system and fire de.

which have diminished to an enor.

alleys which throughout centuries

lOus than any comment of ours could
make it.
Does Golfers expect to regain any
self-inf1icted loss of prestige by de-
monstrating thru suits for damages,
that it can be more artful in evading
liability for libels than the humble
but resentful victims of it's defamation,
or does It hope for starting a campaign
Of libel suits to silence the popular in
dignation, reproach and resentment
which it has aroused.
Golfers can not dodge this public
controversy by private law suits. It
can not postpone the public Judgment
against it. That great jury, 1.-THE Pub
lie, will hardly blame us for not wait
ing until we get a petit jury in court
room, before denouncing this prod
igal detractor of institutions founded
and fostered either by individuals or
by the public, itself.

business career were ever made

Postum or Grape-Nuts. Medicinal ef-

Thousands Of visitors go thru our

themselves that Grape-Nuts contains
absolutely nothing but wheat, barley
and a little salt; Postum absolutely
nothing but wheat and about ten per-
cent of New Orleans Molasses. The
art of preparing these simple ele-
ments in scientific manner to obtain
the best food value and flavor, re-
quired some work and experience to
acquire.

Nervous Headaches
DIR. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS WILL
CURE MOST CASES.
Starved Nerves Are the Cause and
the Tonic Treatment Should In
terest Every Sufferer.

Nobody who has not endured the
suffering caused by nervous head
ache can realize the awful agony of
its victims. Worst of all, the ordin.
ary treatment can not be relied upon
to cure nor even to give relief. Some
doctors will say that if person is
subject to these headaches there is
nothing that can be done to prevent
their recurrence.
Nervous headaches, as well as neu-
ralgia, are caused by lack of nutrition
the nerves are starved. The only
way to feed the nerves is through the
blood and it is in this way that DR..
Williams Pink Pills have accom-
plished so many remarkable cures.
Mrs. Addie Merrill, of 80 Union
Street, Auburn, Me-, says: "For years
1 suffered from nervous headaches,
which would come on me every five or
six weeks and continue for several
days. The pain was so severe that /
"Ouio OO oDASCu " Ru W pSu LUZ
three or four days each time, 1t was
particularly intense over my right eye.
L tried medicines but got no relief.
1 had no appetite and when the head
ache passed away felt as if had
been sick for month. My blood was
thin and l was pale, weak and re-
duced in weight.
81 read about DR.. Williams Pink
Pills in a paper and decided to try
them. 1 first noticed that they be-
gan to give me an appetite and l
commenced to gain in weight and color.
My headaches stopped and have not re-
turned and 1 have never felt so well
as l do now.'
DR.. Williams Pink Pills act direct
ly on the blood, purifying it and MAX
ing new blood. They are for this
reason also an invaluable remedy in
diseases arising from bad or deficient
blood, as rheumatism, anaemia, after
effects of the grip and fevers. The
pills are guaranteed to be free from
opiates or any harmful drug and can
not injure the most delicate system.

MARINE

With n story of good weather from
Suva to this port since January 30
and rough weather, chased by a hur'
ricane, from Brisbane to SuvaI the
S. s. Miowera arrived here yesterday
morning, day late from the Colonies
The vessel left Sydney, January 81;
Brisbane, January 90. She passed Wal
pole Island on January 27.
A part of the same storm that the
vessels from the Orient reported hav-
ing experienced some days ago was
probably experienced by the Miowera,
for the worst of the hurricane passed
astern of the vessel, going in gen
eral southeasterly direction. SO severe
was the weather that Captain Hem
ming of the Miowera, had to move all
of his steerage passengers up to the
cabin part of his ship, and keep them
there, until after the boat reached
Suva. She loaded 1927 tons of sugar
at Suva for Vancouver. The vessel has
a large cargo, in addition to this con-
signment, so she did not stock up with
the usual amount of coal. She loaded
800 tons of cof' at this port.
Particular interest was given to this
trip of the vessel, for she took 110
Solomon Islands people from Queens
land to Fiji under contract to work in
the sugar fields. Under the recent law
enacted in Australia directing the re-
moval Of all Polynesian people from
that land, the kanakas are being de-
ported. They are very excellent field
laborers and the Fijian government has
taken advantage of the chance to Sc
cure them. The laborers are let out
under contract for a period of two
years, at wage of $40 a year. An
other hundred are to be taken to Fiji,
and 25O more are understood to be de-
sired by that go, ernn snt There are
