 AND STATESMAN

Alexander Mackenzie the stone mason who became one of the fore
 most statesmen of the British Elm pire, died 27 years ago today, in his 71st year. Born in Logierait, Perth shire, Scotland, in 1922, he had scant educational advantages, and in his youth he became a stOnemasOn. At the age of 20 he came to Canada and for a time worked at his trade, spending his leisure hours in study, and with such effect that at 30 he was qualified to occupy the editorial chair of a Liberal newspaper In 1861 he entered the Ontario Parlia- ment where he soon became the Lib eraI leader His party leadership be- came national in scope upon the for nation of the Dominion Parliament in 1867. Six years later, with the Pacific railroad matter as an issue, he overthrow the Conservative gov ernment, and became the first Liberal prime minister of Canada, his ad- ministration lasting until 1878. While premier he visited England and was an honored guest at Windsor Castle. On three occasions he de- c1ined knighthood His memory was remarkable and his brain was storehouse of facts on a wide variety of subjects, making him one of the best debaters in the history of the Canadian House.

fore his ills become serious. During 8 hard winter or the following spring one feels rundown, tired out, weak and nervous. Probably you have suffered from cold or infu- en7a which has left you thin, weak and pale. This is the time to put your system in order. It is the time for housekeeping.
 A good, old-fashioned al- terative and temperance tonic is one made of wild roots and barks without the use of alcohol, and called Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery, in tablet or liquid form. This is natures tonic which restores the tone of the stomach, activity of the liver and steadiness to the nerves, strengthening the whole system. Send Dr. Pierce, Buffalo, N.

SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE
 AND CONFEDERATION

It will be 13 years tomorrow, April IS, 1906, that San Francisco was shaken by a convulsion of the earth and afterwards scourged by a confla agration which wiped out a large part of the city. In those 13 years which have elapsed since the Golden Gate City's day of trial the citizens have succeeded in wiping out nearly al the scars of the disaster and in rebuilding not only a new and bigger city, but four years ago created the great city which housed the famous Panama-Pacific Exposition. The City That Was has become again The City That Is," and those pessim- istic prophets of 13 years ago who predicted that San Francisco would never rise from it's ashes have been conclusively refuted.
