Morin'e "Theory and Pri of English Government," in J which he explodes the erroneous idea-- he theless frankly admits $ one pop held--that here Rave baen only slight changes in the English governmental system dur- ing the past century. Dr. Morin claims {| --what is well known to all but those shut in by their Chinese educational methods of history teaching--that in the last hundred years 'great revolu- tions have taken place in the English constitution with little stir and com- plete success. The development of the represcotative system has brought it about, that under monarchy the re presentation is even more sensitive to the sentiment of the people than in the United States, which is, in this res | pect, a republic that has not been able to profit by the experience of the past hundred and twenty years." This statement reveals the true test by which we may always 'udge the freedom. of a people--the sensitive re- sponse of government to the will of the governed.

A POLITICAL STRATEGIST. Mr. Chamberlain is the strategist of the ape politically. He seems to be taking a position in imperial poli- tics peculiarly his own. His was an independent mind and opinion when he announced that though a free trader he had the conviction that the time was near, if not at hand, ST | when the fiscal policy of the old land would have to be vevised.! The "new liberglism"' of some Canadians has heen sneered at. What Mr. Chamber lain's politics may be has not bed described, but it is evident that he iy about to lead off in a mew directidh and become the head and leader of a new party. The chief plank in his platform will be the preference. which he thinks Bri- tain should show for the products of the colonies. He has not made his position on this point very clear, but he has enunciated the idea that the interests of the empire would be very much improved 'by a fiscal policy || which was expressly favourable to '| trade within the empire. He has mow, as a subsequent and surprising | proposal, declared afresh for old age pensions, and he has let it be known that the new policy at which he aims may be. contributary to the revenue which is essential and necessary in { hehall of the pension" scheme, ¢ Politieal = economists stand aghast 'Wt the new combination to which Mr. Chamberlain has resorted, and with | which hei appealing fox popular | "support, Th stu goo 40 politiont ™ by some shallow mia 'x may | @hpire. ; appats ah fionol we, | > dominant fort it could not continue.

Oswego contemplates the paving of several of her streets with asphalt or bituminous macadam.

Mr. Chamberlain expects to raise the millions called for by his old-age pension schéme from the .taxes or non-colonial imports. It may be a dream, but Mr. Chamberlain is trying to give it a semblance of reality. The kaiser says his boys can marry whomsoever they like, that marriage with them will be a case of love ra- ther than of politics. If the young fellows are like their fathers they will probably please themselves anyway.

Resurrection'" on Noy night was good, the English play, "Lord Stratbwore," on Tues day might, was infinitely better, for it gave Virgil Drew 'Trescott, the leaching lady, a chance to prove that she merits the title she gets as a celebrated emotional actress. Alexan- der Frank, her principal support, is a sterling English actor. The play was greeted by a very smal house, when there shold have been standing room only. The play unravels, in five acts, and the evidence of a) iation was the fact that until the final words of her, whose life had heen such 'an ad mixture of happiness and misery, joined the two bands of those whom she intended to wrong, the interest of those present never wavered, and many curtain calls were generously given from spontaneous fevlings. It is a play that has many counter- parts in real lile to-day, where youth and beauty selk themselves for title and position; but in this case her visions of regal life, perchance made her oveflook the fact that it was ne- cessary to be legally married to pos- sess the title which was only secure to her so long as her gouty old lord fawned upon her. leantime in her gorgeous surroundings she had not been idle in making her grace and beauty count with nobility of whom rincipal fly in the web is the $i and digniied Lord Strath- more irmselt, who was willing to re nounce his claims to a most honored position for the charms of a design- ing woman.

THE WAY TO BE WELL. The Blood Must Be Kept Rich and Pure and the Nerves Strong. Good health is the most precious tréasure any man or wonlan can have. But good health can only be had by keeping the blood rich and pure, and the nerves strong. If the blood is allowed to hecome weak and watery, the whole system is weakened and falls an easy prey to disease. There 'is no medici ine can equal Dr. Williams' Pink Pills 'in keeping the blood rich and pure, and the nerves vigorous and strong. Every. dose helps to create new blood, and by a fair use of the pills, pale, sickly peo- plé are made bright, active and strong. Here is proof. Mr. Robert Lee, New Westminster, B.C., says:-- "Before I began using Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, my blood was in a very impure state, and as a result pimples that were ' very itchy, broke out all over my body. My appetite was fickle, and 1 was easily tired. My wife urged me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and 1 got half a dozen boxes. By the time 1 had used them I was completely restored to health, my skin was smooth and clear, and my appetite good." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills do not purge--they simply make pure, rich biood. That is why they cute such troubles as indigestion, neuralgia, rheumatism, anaemia, partial paraly wis, "St. Vitus ' dance, scorfula, ery sipelas, and the ailments so common to women, young and old.
