Germany was gradually crowding in from the At- lantic coast, and Rhodes begrudged them every foot of land which they secured through English inactivity. When the northern boundaries of Bechuenalend were reached there still stretched far beyond a. country item which there began to come sto- ries of fabulous wealth in gold and diamonds. Both Germany and Portu- gal had looked at this great terri- tory with covetous eyes, but a. sav- age monarch, backed by a. horde of fonatical blacks, had proven too much for their courage.

He we: not frightened by Lobensulu, the native chieftnin, but cant commissioners to an: to torn; e, treetv which n.- The year in which Cecil Rhodee dreamed his dream of empire in the shop at Kimberley was the year in which the scramble between the pow- ers for African territory began. Ger- many began crowding England close- ly, and the nation that had been par- amount in South Africa {or so long e time realized at last that if she wished to preserve her standing ad the ruling power she must act halti- ly. So it was in 1885 England con- stituted that part of Bechuanaland louth of the Molopo river and north of Cape Colony English territory. Mr. Rhodes had strongly advocated the annexation of the territory to Cape Colony, but being unsuccessful in this had urged the home government to make of it a. croWn colony, which was done. In the Coming; out of his dream Rhodes was fortunate as to time and events. It was early in the ’80s that England first evinced an earnest de- sire to expand in South Africa. For almost a century previous to that. time the nation had pursued a vacilâ€" lating policy with a. vast territory that might all have been hers for the asking, or even for the taking when asked. But difl‘erent Ministries had diflerent views in regard to the pol- icy of acquiring an extensive terri- tory in the dark continent, and while an occasional ministry would branch out and extend English rule to new territory in Africa. political revolu- tions at home would bring new min- istries, and they in turn would aban- don all that their predecessors had gained. That is the incident. A: Rhodes expressed it, "a. dream," but a. dream that for the past 16 years has been steadily revolutionizing the map of louthcrn Africa, until to-day the dream is all but realized, until there are but two small states in all that great territory over which the Union Jack does not wave signifying Brit- ish sovereignity, and the war with England into which those two little states have plunged may be the final act in this dream of what “as 16 years ago an unknown man. It would be almost impossible to show Mr. Rhodes' connection with African history in every detail dur- ing those 16 years. Even at the time of his remarkable statement in the Kimberley shop he had made a small start in the wonderful career which has been his since that time. In those days election to the Cape Parliament did not mean much in a political way, but Rhodes had se- cured that and made it a. stepping stone to things greater. " ‘I will give you ten years to realize it.’ replied the friend. minutes stepped up to Rhodes and asked Whether he Was attempting to find the location of Kimberley. Mr. Rhodes made no reply for several seconds, then placed his hand over the map and covered a. large part 01 south and central Africa. A DREAM 0F EMPIRE. " ’All that.

The first symptom was a feeling of overpowering drowsi- ness which crept over me at times. Often I would be at work in the field when the drowsiness would seize me and I would find that it required the exercise of all my power to keep awake. In a short time I was attm-k- ed by sharp piercing pains, which shot through the lower part of my back. At first this did not trouble me very much during the day, but at night. the pain became almost unen- durable and often I would not close my eyes throughout the whole night. Gradually a nausea and loathing for food developed. Sometimes I would sit down to a. meal with a keen appe- tite, but after a mouthful or so had passed my lips, sielmess and vomiting would follow. I became greatly re- duced in flesh and in a. short time was but a. wreck of my former self. The doctor said the trouble was disease of the kidneys, but this treatment did not help me. My mother who was something of a. nurse, urged me to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, and at last to satisfy her more than from hopes of being cured, I took up their use.
