"ČKY, DRM, KDİROM OF CERUSERY," LANDED
It took years of agitation to gað, sha Crown to move in the matter of bogus baronete, but the necessary steps have been taken, and we are now in a fair way 10 109. the hareditary-tities of the peerage and baronetage cleared, and kept free from, im- postura.
Now we need another Home Office Com mittee' to consider the question of the remaining beroditary titles, the much more oludiva ** The,” and anch other descriptions sa have been in use as designations indica. tives of the headship or chieftainship of s tribe or clan. Badly put is there the smallest justification for any of them? Are they not now all long since extinct?
In England we never suffered from the malady, at all. With us the power lay it the peaceful possession of the land, and wa were always content to call our leacht lords of the territories they owned. `
Even in Wales those tribal titler buye not survived, although there, as in the rat of the Callis fringe; the chief source of worlth, and amuament "was to be found in taking.away the property of somebody ales or in defending one's own. Ideas, of course, are traditional from one generation to another—hence the Budget-but that is by the way.
It Scotland and Ireland, however, the craving for those old designations is an ob session. Thore is an old Scottish saying that in that country there are but three Tha'i"The Chisholm, The Mackintosh, and The Devil, Nowadays, there is a good deal of dispute as toho The Chisholm is, while I understand 'that the claimante to the chieftainship of Clan Chatian are legion.
In Ireland the position soems to me to be a good deal clearer than can be said to be the case in Scotland. The Irish tribes" wore many in sumber and very varied in power and influence, Some called their chiefs kings, and appear to have had no little justification for doing so. Sobe unquestionably wore kings in fact; others did not sepire to such high dignity. The
crucial fact romains that in all cases the right to the chi labip, whatever it might be called, was not hereditary but was. elective, aut among the tribe but by the tribe, among the members of the ruling | house, this legal principle, howevor, by the nature of the Trial boing much tempored by ioforuality of election, assassination. warfare and self-assa;tion. · At any rate the elective principle was there, firmly established, an absolute bar to mere hereditary primogeniture.
When Henry VII abolished the Breton law and pub English law in its place, the right of election ceased to exist. Most of the principal chiefs were, one by one, made poors, and that fact and the use of their peerage designatioas led, except in possibly or two cases, to the actual dis. continuance of these tribal titles. As`s matter of cold fact it was not until the latter half of the eighteenth century that we beard much more about them:
008
I submit that with the exception of The MeDermot and The O'Conor Don, both of which have been recognised constantly by the Crown, nothing in the nature of real proof of light can be offered, in sub stantiation of any of them.
Io Scotland the case is not so clear. The clana, never reached the sovereignty of| some of the Irish trilies." There was siwaya one King of Scotland at the head,

Nervous Breakdown, Paralysis-
The master force which conquered the most perilous afflictions, and enabled him to endure amazing hardships, says. Captain Henderson, is derivaid entirely from Phosferice. Exposed by his adventurous life to an extraordinary series of misfortune from being disabled in action, to sunstroke, enteric fever, and paralysis of the legs, this gallant officer was yet able, matizely owing to the aid of Phosferine, to leave the hospital and fight through to the end of the Boer War Under blows which make men reel and fall, Captain Henderson was so upheld by the vitalising and bracing qualities of Phosferine, that actually on his-return home ha was robust and vigorous enough to win four military prices in one day, including the famous Victoria Cross Cup!
Cured with Signal Success.

Captain D. E. Henderson, 1, Marino Avenue, Clontarf, Dublin, writes: "During the late Boer War, I. had a severe shock from lightning, and an injury to the spine through my horse being killed in action and rolling on top of me. In Jodia, some years previously, I had an attack of sun- stroke, and was five months in hospital with Enteric Fever. These troubles told upon me, and ultimately resulted in a complete nervous breakdown when in Pretoria. I was admitted to hospital when I had lost the use of my legs. I was treated for neuritis and sent out only partly cured, and then started taking, Phosferine systematically and regularly. The benefit. I received was marvellous; in two months time I was back in the field and fought right through until the end of the war. Owing to a great financial lass, which preyed on my mind, I had a second break". down, and the doctor told me that I would probably be paralysed for life. I thought again of Phosferine, and after using it about three weeks my.... strengil gradually returned and the frightful depression and weakness left me. The proof of which is that, in the military sports, I won four prisss jiz our day, including the Victoria Cross cup."-July 14, 1911.
