Indigestion and Catarrh.
40 Kentish Road, Handsworth, Birmingham, Dear Sirs,It is now about five years since Angier's Emulsion was recommended, to me by a doctor, and I have found it invaluable for indigestion and stomach catarrb, as well as for toning up the system, I was very much run down when I first took it, but improved immediately, and gained in weight 15 lb. in twelve weeks: I have recommended the Emulsion to 'several of my friends for various complaints, with good results.. It proved especially good for a friend who suffers from inflammation. of the bowels, who was completely cured, and has been at work regularly ever since.

THE MAN OF THE HOUR,
LORD LÁNEDOWNE
HAAR BY WILLIAM MAXWELL To Lord Lansdowne in committed to-day a solowa daty and privilege. As Leader in the House of Lords he is called upon to assert the right of the nation to be master of its fate. No man has stronger claim to this privilege of responsibility, for none has served his country more faithfully or inspired his countrymen with
more confidence. The man whom Gladstone
and Falisbury and Grauville and Jowett chose for the highest office of State, and who during forty years of publio life has given so many proofs of capacity and pledges of devotion to the interests of the country, is entitled to this privilege.

"COURAGE AND HAPENESS,"
12
Nature and training have endowed Lord Lansdowne with the qualities of a statesman, Though he has never striven to dazzle the maltitude, his unvarying prudence, sound judg. ment, clear apprehension, and honesty of pur pose have compelled ita confidence. Brought ap in the Whig faith, and enlisted in its service at an early age, he has allowed experience to correct his prepossessions. Cautions in di-posi tion, his changes of opinion have been slow and deliberata: they have broken "no promise, served no private end." He has betrayed no man and so cause; yet whom he has obtainedi enlightenment on a great truth h has embraced- it without counting the sacrifice. "Courage and safoness," according to Lord Robarts, were the distinguishing qualities of Lord Lansdowne sa Governor-General of India, and safeness and conrags have been the qualities of his official life fr Canada, at the War Ofoe, at the Foreign Ooo, and in the House of Lords,
But those who know Lord Lansdowne only." from his record of public service know only half the man. The spare, alert figure, well groomed and debonair-n contrast with the late Lord Salisbury, whose devation and qualities be shares the well-bred air and the courteous reserve of speech and manner these outward manifestations of race and character are familiar to the public. But boneath the polished and silent exterior are qualities of heart as well as of mind that hayo attached to him with bands stronger than steel the affection of kindred and friends Like his great predecessor at the Foreign Oco he has also the saving grace of humour, without which, as Lord Salisbury was wout to declare, the life of a public official would be intolerable. Under this benigo in- fluence, as under the pressure of great motives, vanishes all coldness of manner, and word Lansdowne becomes in private the gay and brillinat companion and in publie the earnest apostle.
A GREAT CAREER
Of Lord Lansdowne's services at home and abroad history must be the judge. Contens- poraries can only record his achloroments.
ho was a great administrator India and Canada testify. Despite differences of opinion, which Mr. Gladstone FRS always ready to overlook, Lord Lansdowne was appointed Governor-General of Canada in 1883, and justi fied this confidence by his wisdom in dosling with the Louis Riel rebellion and in removing the Fisheries question from the list of diplo matic disputes with the United States. If Lord Lansdowne was no "evanescent eidolon in the Dominion, neither was hb. “a fleeting abadow" in India. No Viceroy was ever more populer, and few did more to promote the wal fare and security of the Empire. He establish- ed our relations with Afghanistan, strengthened our frontiers, regulated the employment of children, restricted child-marriages, and saved India from bankruptcy by closing the minis for the free coinage of silver and giying to the rupse an approach to a standard valne,
Ten years of exile were rewarded with the office of Secretary for War- reward that brought many trials and tribulations and threatened at one moment to destroy the re putation of this successful Governor.” The evil has not yet been drawn aside that covers the period of the Boer war, but onough has now been revealed to show that Lord Lansdowne did. not merit all the condemnation of those early days of alarm. If he turned a deaf ear to the warnings of Lord. Wolseley, it was because the Government wished to avoid oven the ape pearance of seeking a conflict with the Trans-

would have been to precipitate a quarrel not in South Africa alone but on the Continent. When the die was cast Lord Lansdowns showed that he could be resoluto. The removal of the orduanes factories from the control of the Finance Department to that of the Inspector- General of Urduanca was wrong from the De fence Committee of the Cabinet in spite of opposition. The grant of £11,500,000 for the automatic replacement of stores and ammunition was wrested from the Chancellor of the Ex- chequer-whose strong personality dominated membore of the Government-after a atormy scane. "The service that Lord Lansdowna rendered to his country in those days has yet to.

THE FOREIGN OFFICE.

No. Department of the State demands from its chief so many qualities of judgment, tact, and knowledge of men and affairs. You may make a Chancellor of the Exchequer or even a Prime Minister, but a Foreign Minister is born-net made, Lord Lansdowne can claim this distinction. As Lord Granville said of him when Jowett mag- gested that he should become his assistant at the Foreign Office: Ford Tausovun kas all the qualities-fact that never fails, cory. that never lige, tempor that a man can raffle, capacity for secreting international prece-- denta that none can riral" `A fine and recep once courteous and reserved, and a wide and tive mind in perpetual exercisa, a manner at intimate acquaintance with foreign countries ware not the sole qualifications of Load Lan downs for this important post.
