To those who may not be acquainted
with the value Of SEVEN BARkS we
would say that it is absolutely harm
less and remarkable remedy, made
from the extracts of different kinds of
roots and herbs, every one of which
has great medicinal value, scientifically
blended, and for many, many years has
been reliable remedy for Indigestion,
Constipation, Liver, Kidney and Stom-

them. And the master of the small
craft, on his return, had this explana-
ton TO make-the gentleman had in
troduced himself as "the mayor of Bos-
ton, United States of America" which
the royal yaehtsman, impressed, com.
pressed into the "the mayor of Ameri-
ca" And, of course, a man, who would
dare march onto the royal landing
stage must have stepped onto it with
royal permission.
And so, chatting of kings and stowa-
ways, yachts and intriques, he enters
tains his guests until the Hook is
reached. And as Sir Thomas is never
so we'll cast as when he is playing the
host, it is an enjoyable trip, this lit
tie joy-ride down the bay to the SCI
rious work of the day,
The racing sloops, lying at anchor
with mainssils and club-topsails set,
awaiting arrival of their master, look
as alike as two peas to the landsman.
And the vegetarian smile is carried out
by the hulls, both painted lively Irish
green. The only apparent difference Is
that the Shamrock ". is just little
greener than her partner, for even her
decks are emerald
As soon as the Fictoria's engines are
stopped, the veteran of international
regattas boards his launch to inspect
his craft before they set out. From
that moment he becomes lost to all
but things maritime.
Round the course Sir Thomas follows
his sloops as they race and after the
finish again holds parley with their
shippers. Then it's back to New York
in the eveniDg-the days work done.

Grafton yesterday and faile dto rally.
Lord Fisher began his naval career
in 1854, and while ON active service he
took part in the Crimean, Chinese and
Eoyptian wars. He became lord of the
admiralty in 1892, and first sea lord OF
the admiralty in 1904, which post he
held six years.
He emerged from retirement in Octo-
Der. 1914, to resume his post as first
sea lord of the admiralty and direct
the naval warfare against Germany.
His vigorous policy caused him TO be
termed "the Kitchner of the British
Navy" and chief credit has been
claimed for him for the bottling up of
the Germany navy. Cabinet disputes
led to his resignation in May, 1915, but
he continued to serve the government
in various capacities throughout the
war, and was prominent naval critic:
Lord Fisher was born on the island OF
Ceylon, January 25, lS4l, and was the
son of Captain William Fisher OF a
Highland regiment, stationed in the
east at that time He entered the navy
kwhen only Is years OF age and was
Commissioned q lieutenant IN lSoo.
From this time on his rise in the serv-
ice was continuous. He was married in
1866 to Miss Frances Broughton, VINO
died in 1918. He is survived by one son
and three daughters.
Lord Fisher was for many years
popular idol in Great Britain, enjoying
he affection and confidence OF every
tank of the people. He was known as
the "Father of the Dreadnaught," De-
cause he was the first to realize the
vast power of this type of warship.
During his terms as first sea lord,
from 1904 to 1910, he virtually revolu-
tionized the British ravy. He entirely
changed the oldfashioned and out
worn strategic disposition of the fleet,
and threw no less than $50 warships,
from immense ironclads TO light cruis'
ers into the scrap as obsolete.
Being "a reformer by nature, Lord
Fishers attack on the British naval
administration in September, 1919, in
which he denounced the expenditures
being made as "ruinous," might have
been expected, but it caused great
sensation throughout the empire. Later
Lord Fisher declared that in the sub
