■ ITGHIHEiBBf' OF THE BKIN. __—> —. Ever have any irritation of the skin P There are many forms of it, any of them.bad enough to tax your patience. ■Heniorrhoid a plague of the' night; uo rest for the sufferer from this'complaint. , Eczema, too. Hives don't sound dangerous, but they cause much misery to those unfortunate enough tc be troubled with them. But Doan's Ointment is a " Wonder" for any such trouble; no irritation of the skin can resist its healing, soothing influence. Lots of Blenheim people know this now. -Mr C. Perkins, High Street, of this town, says:—•" Doan s Ointment has given me relief in a case of Eczema of twenty years' standing. It is the first and only thing I ever used that gave me any satisfaction. This remedy is splendid in allaying irritation. 'It acts very quickly, and in fact relieves immediately. I've not the slightest doubt about this remedy being a cure for such cases. Even if it did nothing else but relieve th« way it does it is in^^luable in all cases of eczema. I obtained it at Shaw's Pharmacy." Doan's Ointment is splendid in all skin diseases, eczema, piles, hives, sores, insect bites, chilblains, etc. It is perfectly safe and very effective. Very often two or three pots have cured chronic cases where other remedies have failed for years. Doan's Ointment is for sale by all chemists and storekeepers at 3s per pot, or will be posted on receipt of price by Fos-ter-McClellan Co., 76, Pitt Street, Sydney, N.S.W. ■ But be sure it is DOAN'S. 3 BRIWIAND AUCA. : —* _ WOULD THEY FIGHT OVER ■ ■ .. JAPAN? THE TERMS OF THE ANGLOJAPANESE TREATY. ~, {Napier .Telegraph.) ; ; There" is : a ipiaper in the TJnited States called' the Sun. It is of strongly marked anti-British leanings. Well, the bun has recently been trying to convince the" American people that they will have to fight Britain within the next twenty-five years. Its methods to this end are peculiar. It first receives from Berlin, a cable message setting out that the British Admiralty know that war between Japan and the United States must come within twenty-five years, and may come within five j-ears. Then the Sun proceeds to quote the treaty of 1905 between Japan and England to prove that when Japan fights the United States Britain will be fighting against the United States also^—that she must do this or break her treaty obligations. In support of this it quotes article 11. of the treaty, which provides that if either of the contracting Powers should be involved in war by unprovoked or aggressive action-on the part of any other Power .or Powers, the other contracting Power will come to the assistance of its ally "and will conduct the. war in common." The Sun professes to set out fully article 11., and having clone so proceeds to establish its theory that since Japan and the United States must fight, and since if they do fight it will be owing to aggressive action by California, Britain must range herself with Japan and seek to destroy the United States. This is very stupid or very vicious. An important- part of article 11. is omitted. It is that which sets out that one of the contracting Powers shall help the other if engaged in war " in defence of its territorial rights or special interests mentioned in the preamble of this agreement." The preamble reads as follows:— (a) The consolidation and maintenance of general peace in the regions -of Eastern Asia and of India; (b) _ The preservation of the common interests of all Powers in China by insuring the independence and integrity of the Chinese Empire and the principle of equal opportunities for the commerce and. industry of all nations in China; (d) The maintenance of the territorial rights of the High Contracting Parties in the regions of Eastern Asia j and of India, and the defence of their I special interests in the said regions. | —The position is thus perfectly clear, and the anti-British Sun stands convinced either of gross ignorance or of degrading malice.
