Holick comments i les perfect instrument in Capt. T. F. Hall purely physical sense, than it was at MFA Hampe twenty five or thirty. That most demman of all hamna afflictious called by Kipling *Anno Domini remains a constant Mr C.E. Hibner source of diminishing vigour. Wise men MrP. Isherwood accept the fact and make the best of it. Mrs & Jenkins They enjoy their middle age as they on Mr Balones joyed their youth and their childhood Mr & M in ways appropriate to the bolily strength vouchsafed them. The sunity which is Mlle Katzord up simposible standards is avoided; the Mr A. Keating spirit of competition, which dictates Mr H. Koner rersive activity, is tempered by common Mr A. Kerwin sense. That, without doubt, is the young spirit in an older frame. For youth sufficient to itself. Those older men who declare that they are as strong as the were twenty years ago betray, indeed, an unconscious sense of weakness They pro text too much. When they attempt to mohroze their words by deeds their case is frequently even more pitiable A eyni Mr & Mrs Childe, cal world does not spare the woman who Mr R. M. Cobb attempts to be younger than she is; it is Mr F.M. Crawford asually more charitable to the man. Yot Mr C. J. Crocker he, too, the but know it, is an object MrJ. E. Edwards of derision. The spirit of youth, even in Mr F. M. Fetterley old people, is beautiful and attractive. But the imitation of south, whether in body or mind, has no lovelines Its T- sincerity is too obviousTimes.

Mr&J Lynch Rach comment has been caused by their & Mrs Don G statement that, under a classe his will all the treasured quarta editions of Shakes peace which were collected by M Henry, Frederic House, reted indian civil beau, are to be barnt A leading article bas been written questioning The Right to Destroy; Shakespearean scholar has publicly expressed the hope that the clause may be overruled and The Times its f made, in the opinion of one who knew Mr. House most unfortunate and unfair inference that the probable reason fer the clauses that others should not avail themselves of the festator's totes and comments or profit by his era.
A moment's reflection would have shown all these critics their mistake and any friend of Mr. House had he been con Bulted, would have told them at once that it was utterly inconceivalle that he should have directed his treasures to be destroyed. What Tas led to the marake is the generosity with whb The Times uses its commas. There are no commas in a will;" and if therefore, instead of all his editions of Shakespeare, with his S. notes, shall be burnt," we read all his editions of Shakespeare with his ME. notes ahall be hurrt, we shall see clearly and correctly Mr. House's intentions,
All the alilions which contain Mr. House's noter are, representative of The Chere was authoritatively in formed modern editions, of no special value and if o guess may be hazarded. allout the reason for their destruction, it| is that Mr. House felt that his notes were incomplete, and that, though he spent many years with bis book, his life was not long enough to enable him to realise Lis au bitions. All the quarto plays and other treasures which his collection con tains are now being ca'alogued for sale and they will be offered by auction either at the end of this year or the beginning of Text.

BRIMFUL OF ENERGY
Two of the main reasons why so many people are lacking In energy are Imperfect digestion and constipation. If your stomach and liver are not doing their work effectively your system will not be properly nourished. If your bowels are Irregular, a certain. amount of waste matter will be retained in the system which will adversely affect the purity of the blood. Now, Beecham's Pis have an excellent effect upon the digestive and eliminatory organs and exercise a tonic and energising influence upon the system generally. If you would be healthy, energetic and cheerful you should take a few doses of this reliabla medicine,
