The words OF praise bestowed on the
several ingredients entering into Doctor
Pierce's medicines by such writer's should
have more weight than any amount Of
non professional testimonials, because
such men are writing for the guidance Of
their medical brethren and know whereof
they speak.
Both medicines are non-alcoholic, non

Training Both Hands.

An interesting discussion is being
carried on in England In connection
with the question Of ambidexterity,
says Harper's Weekly. There being
a certain number of physicians and
psychologists who are recommending
that the child should be taught to
use the left as well as the right hand
and with equal facility. There are,
however, those who advise that tho
left should be used for left-handcd
motion, inasmuch as 1t Is not an ex-
act copy of the right, and must
possess corresponding limitations,
While the advanced ambideXtcrist3
believe that In addition to its ordi-
nary duties the left hand should bo
taught to copy the movements OF the
right, such as In ordinary writing.
the moderate advocates think that,
recognizing It's limitations, the left
hand should be made to do on the
left side similar things. These, of
course, would be done by move
ments In the reverse direction, and
therefore, II absolute ambideXerity
were required, as in turning a screw
or in writing. a screw with reversed
thread should be used and a reversed
form of writing devised.

John Burns has learnt his oratory
In the open-air school, which de-
mands loud voice, plenty Of fire
and vehemence and accentuated ac-
tion. He throws back his broad
shoulders, rolls out his long SEN
tences and rhetorical phrases in a
Hyde Park voice, and as he finishes
each slip of his notes he crushes It
in his right hand and thrusts 1T into
pocket of his pea Jacket
John Morley is a speaker of quite q
different stamp from the member for
Battersea. He Is normally quiet and
unemotional; stands by the chair
mans table with his left hand play
ing neryously with his waistcoat
buttons, while he points the index
finger of his right hand at his audi
enCe.
Mr.. Asquith has a fine, clear voice,
and excellent delivery and an attrac-
tive presence. , His speeches are de-
li@htful to listen to in their smooth,
easy, sonorous Aow. He is very spar
ing OF gestures, but the nervous
movements of his hands betray his
state Of tension,
James Bryce is man of prodigous
learning and ability, but by no means
n stimulating speaker. His speeches
are really lectures, brimful of In
struction. but delivered with SOL
emnity and immobility which makes
them not little tedious.
Mr.. Saldane Is another minister
Of immense cleverness and wisdom
who IS not an alluring speaker. He
eschews oratory and gestures and
with arms folded across his huge
chest reels out his speeches in a
voice which seems ludicrously small
for his big body.
