Ti^HEproposed half-million loan -which is oc- ~» - cupyiug the attention of our politicians pales into insignificance when compared with the news flashed to us from, Europe along the electric wires. The disturbing elements of discord in Paris, the progress of the German Emperor in the East, the haughty attitude of Russia, plainly displayed through thoge modern military spies and detectives, the Embassies, to say nothing of Chinese incidents, point to a serious complication of warlike preparations which will require all the diplomatic skill and adroitness of the Ambassadors of peace-loving- nations to prevent. It is to be regretted that the proposal of the Tsar of Russia for the disarmament of nations is not adopted. Men could then live in peace with one another. They could now if their livers wero in g-ood order and they wore free from biliousness and indigestion. The whole of the liver troubles arise froi i causes that are both cured and prevented by the use of Nurse Woodward's Health Syrup, made from pure herbs gathered at the foot of the Mount of the Holy Cross, and sold by all chemists at 2s 6d per bottle. SPOILING FOR A FIGHT. f | THINGS are lively in French naval circles -*- just now. There is .an intense desire to pay England out for Lont .Kitohener's generosity in rescuing Marchand from hostile niggers and starvation. This is the ostensible reason for French naval activity. The real one is that the politicians, military chiefs, and wire-pullers in Paris are at sixfcs and sevens, and the Dreyfus enormity is so certain to wreck reputations that it is deem ed expedient to divert attention from domestic scandals by picking a quarrel with England. The Gallic cock takes periodical fits of crowing, and when out of breath he usually climbs down again. This is called enthusiastic patriotism. The last time she had it bid Fiance went in search of glory to take Berlin, and tho Minister of War reported " everything perfect down to tho last gaiterbutton," and in less than a month the gaiters and the gaiter-buttons, the army and the Emperor, were all under lock and key. The watchword in the British Navy is, "Ready, aye ready." Officers and men, guns and shells, torpedoes and tinned meats, coal and cutlaßses — everybody and everything ready for what may happen, whether a battle or a ball. It is all one to Jack. And when it comes to hard pounding, the man behind the big gun who keeps his head cool comes out on top. The experience of the past ten years goes to prove that for clearness of brain and eyesight there is no spocific possessing virtues equal to SURATURA TEA, owing to ics absolute purity. It stimulates without exciting, and is equally adapted to the warrior, the thinker, and the worker. Suratura Tea is not blended with Indian or China Teas. HOLIDAYS.
