teaches mon that there are two ways of looking at everything. Be this as it may, quarrels are hardly ever per- sisted in at the Bar, and causes of' strife, which would separate two neighbouring vicars or fellow-church- wardens for ever, are frequently set at rest by barristers in the luncheon in- terval next after they arise.

CHAMBERLAIN'S COUGH REMEDY TS intended especially for coughs, colde, croup, whooping cough and influenza. It has become famous for its cures of these diseases over a large part of the civilized world. The most flattering testimonials have been received, giving accounts of its good works; of the aggravating and per sistent coughs it has cured; of severe colda that have yielded promptly to its soothing effects, and of the dangerous attacks of croup it has cured, often waving the life of the child. The extensive use of it for whooping cough has shown that it robs that disease of all dangerous results. It is especially prized by mothers because it contains nothing injurious and there is not the least danger in giving it, even to babies. For It always cures and cures quickly. 2208 salo by All Dealers; WATKINS Ltd., GOD.

"THE LADY OF OSTEND."
It was the genius of the comedy writers of the period of the ruff and the pointed beard which first secured for the stage a really solid foundation of general popularity; it is, still, the art of laughter making which maintains the security of this structure. The Lady of Ostend, played last night by Miss Janet Waldorf's Co., is a comedy of the most modern English School. It may not have the grace or the literary merit of picces such as The School for Scandal or the Rirals it has no claims to such-but in its stage depiction Buronnd's story appeals toy us twentieth-century folk far more offec. tively than the jests and the satires of Sheridan and his three bottle' friends."

9.30. a.m.
On my arrival the gates of the yamên were thrown wide open, and I was received by Mr Liang, the Viceroy's interpreter. Having arrived thirty minutes before the time appointed, I had a very interesting chat with Mr Liang about the Viceroy and his movements. Mr Liang is n Cantonese, and has been with the Viceroy for many years. He is a good English scholar, very intelligent, and a perfect gentleman in his bearing. He evidently has the respect and confidence of the Viceroy, and the Viceroy through him is kept well posted in all mat tors connected with the outer world. Punc- tually to the minute the great Viceroy made his appearance, and gave me a very hearty welcome. Though desiring to see H. E. for some years, I had made up my mind never to ask for an interview. Others had applied for the honour, and had been told that the Viceroy was very busy, or somewhat indisposed. Personally I have a decided objection to being snubbed, so I thought it best to run no risk.
