Britain's rejoiner to Secretary of

The chief points in the note are the
assertion that the time is not yet
ripe for arbitration of the Panama
dispute and a disagreement with the
Knox Interpretation of the "all ma
tons" clause Of the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty The American note held that
England could not claim the same
toll rates as the United States, even
under the treaty provision that all

Ahab, $50 B. c., these inscriptions are
considered to be one OF the greatest

Ahab and Amri for three years.
They found labels on wine and oil

which the wine was laid down In the

LAND OF OUR FoREFATHERs
Edward Everett's Tribute to England
as the Cradle and Refuge Of
Free Principles.

For myself ] can truly say that
after my native land | feel tender
ness and reverence for that OF my
fathers. The pride | take in my own
country makes me respect that from
which we are sprung. The sound of
my native language beyond the sea
Is music to my ears beyond the rich
est strains Of Tuscan softness or Cas-
lillian majesty.
the panegyrist Of England. ] am not
dazzled by her riches nor awed by her
power. The scepter, the inter and
the coronet, stars. carriers and rib
bons seem to me poor things for great
men to contend for.
But England is the cradle and the
refuge of free principles, though often
prosecuted; the school of religious
liberty, the more precious for the
struggles through which 1t has passed;
she holds the tombs OF those who have
reflected honor on all who speak the
English tongue; she is the birthplace
of our fathers, the home of the Pill
grims; 1t Is these which | love and
venerate in England
should feel ashamed Of an enthu-
siasm for Italy and Greece did / not
also feel 1t for land like this. In
an American it would seem TO be de-
generate and ungrateful to hang with
passion upon the traces of Homer and
Virgil and follow without emotion the
nearer and palmer footsteps of
Shakespeare and Milton. l should
think him cold in love for his native
land who felt no melting in his heart
for that other native country which
holds the ashes of his forefathers.-

makes the kidneys sift out and filter
away. all the uric acid and poisons
from the blood, and leaves the kid
Ineys and urinary organs clean, strong,
healthy, and well,
1t matters not how long you have
suffered, how old you are. or what
you have used. the very principle of
Croxone is such, that it is practically
impossible to take 1t into the human
system without results. There is
nothing else on earth like 1t. 1t

he was robbed OF $4,000 worth of

The San Luis Potosi plan or procla-
