THE WAR 18 E FINISHED Unionist Leaders Explain Why They Consented To Join the Asquith Coalition Uabinet, London, May 27.---~The Marquis of Lansdowne and Andrew Bonar Law, both of whom mow ocqupy seats in the coalition 'Ministry; explained to their followers at a - meeting of Unionift members of both House of Parliament held at the Carlton Hotel yesterday the reasons which decided them to join 'the coalition Parlia ment. Mr. Bonara Law read a let- ter from the Prime Minister, In which the Premier suggested a coali- tion, saying: "After long and care- ful consideration, I bave 'definitely come to the conclusion that' the €on- duct of the war to a successful and decisive issue cannot be éarried om extept by a Cabinet which repre- sents all the parties in the state. 1 need mot enter into reasons sufficient ly obvious 'which point to this as the best solution in the interests of the country of the problems which the war now presents; nor doés the reco- gnition of its neeefgity involve any disparagement "on my part of the splendid sérvice which in their sever: al spherés my colleagues have ren dered to the Empire. "In this great and trying emergen- my colleagues have placed their refignationy in my hinds, 4nd I am therefore in a position to invite you and those who are associated with ou to join forces with us in a com- fled ~wdnitmistration, "in which 1 11 also ask the leaders of the Irish and labor parties to participate, whote common action, without pre- judice to the future prosecution of our various divergent political pur- poses, ghiould be exclusively directed to the issues of the war" Lord Lansdowne's Speech. Lord Lansdowne, in opening the meeting, sald that ordinarily he dis- liked 'coalition governments, but the conditions at present were extraor- dinary. "The country", He said, "is making the most stupendous ef- fort it has ever been called upon to make, We do not even yet know what dimensions that effort may prove to be, New theatres of war unfold themselves before us; new de- vélopments, some of them of the most sinister and horrible kind, are must all of us: be convineed that at such a moment nothing but a sap: remo effort on the part of the whole lation will be sufficient fo meet the | Qimenlties and the opposition in front of us.* The country, continued Lord Lansdowne, had already experienced not a few disappointments. had been shorfcomings, 'misealculas tions ----- some! probably excusable, some 'of them perhaps not. 'There had been something with the "We are not sure," are getting enough a drimnier gave me a' WE "that the fa of essential munitions, wn Supy!

Ir Election A Disaster. Lansdowne ned that the, oP ioalst Jeaders considered that a general election would have been a national disaster of the first mag- nitude, and, although their unoffi- cial advice had been, accepted by the Government, thus throwing some of the responsibilities = on them, they felt that their share of the respon: sibility 'should be full and complete, They bh therefore, accepted the Premier's 'juvitation. ' "Andrew Bonar Law said that just ad the Unionists had decided that there must be a change, he had re- ceived a letier from the Prime Mins ister Susgesting Snlitior, and b had immediately re; accepting the ins vitation. He at pan that |John Redmond had not joined the Government, which, if it was to suc- ceed, must bea national Government in as 'well as in name.

Where Yor May Boy Back Anything 5 Stolen From You It is only in our modern ultra-civ- ilized day of law and order and the utilitarian thebry of life 'that the bold and romahtic profession of rob- bery is wholly looked dowh upon. Robin Hoof was 4 robber, and yet an honored aud bomorable man, and the subject of more legend than any King. 'And in the brave days that até described [f° "Lorna Doone" a successful highwayman was Bighly regarded for his courage 'and' good marksmanship. In olé Mexico things 'are still ran upon the medieval plan, and the time-honored business of direct and physical * robbery still, bas a good deal of unofficial recognition, Every once in awhile some prominent' Mex- fcan bandit takes a running jump at the Presidential chair, and some of these road agents have a great bold upon the popular 'imagination, and long ballads about their exploits are hung from ome end of the country to the other. Furthermore, the somewhat less spectacular profession of the sneak thief also obtains a sort of vicarious recognition. J "your umbrella or your, silver teapot. is stolen from .your house in Mexico City, you do not 1 'to the police, but go to the "volador'" or public market, $d and spend a few hours wandering along the' crowded aNeys, "fined by filled 'with every conceivable sort | junk. Very probably you will tH Jon lost article among it, and after a good "of "haggling 'Will get it back for 'the best price you ean af- ford to pay. Wery likely the man you buy it from is the very same who stole it; for the thief is protected by #n old custom, which decrees that he may go free of punishment if he displays the stolen' goods in the market upon the iret Sunday after he steals it. This recognition is eéxtémded to thievery + throughout Mexico, and thieves' markets are to be found in a number of cities besides the capi- .

Recently discovered coals tar products, seroms, antitoxing and vaccines 'have revolutionized 'the treatment of ¢cértalr diseases; but opium is the remedy 'which doctors the world over place at the head of the list for usefulness in the greates| number of serious wilments. "If the entire materia medica at our disposal were "limited 'to the choice and use of only one drug." gaid Prof. Maeht, of Johns Hopkins University, rée¢ently, "I am pure that 4 great many, if not a majority, of us would ¢hoose 'opium, * '* * which has proved such a boon to suffering humanity." Jt was unnecessary for him 'to add, What ry 'Intelligent person knows, that the abuse of this beneficent remedy 1» also one of the greatest curses to humanity. Appar: ently it has no rival in &ither field, unless it be aloohel, : The first authentic record of the use of opium is that of Theophras- tus, a G ph; who. lived al- | most 400 years Mefore the Christigy | éra.. Later the Romdns recognized its value as a medicine, and the gréat Roman physician, Galen, laid down rules for its use that 'were guides to physicigns for 1,500 years. According to Galen, "Opium re- sists poison and venomous bites, cures inveterate headache, vertigo, deafness, epilepsy, apoplexy, dimness of sight, loss of voice, asthma, coughs of all kinds, spitting of blood, tightness -of breath, colig, the iliac poison, jaundice, hardness of 'the spleen, stone, urinary complications, fevers, dropsies, leprosies, the trou- ble to 'which women are subject, melancholy and all pestilene Of course, if Galen bad been en- tively right about the uses of opium, most diseases would have vanished from the earth long ago. Neverthe less, he understood the case in Some particulars almost as much as he overstated it In others. 'And the modern physician could make a 1isf of conditions in which opium 'wis the sheet anchor even longer than Galen's, although considerably less comprehensive, and' with less em- phasis on the "cure." . Indeed, 'the drug is of such importanee, and such a4 menace; that it occupies the atten. tion of all lawmakérs at the present time.
