"DISTORTION OF FACTS"

Mr. Lloyd George has replied to rértain passages in the late Vis count Morley's "Memorandum on | Resignation." published recently, in which he gave his reasons for leaving the Liberal Cabinet on the outbreak of war with Germany.

Mr. Lloyd George says:

is unfair to them to suggest, as Lord Morley does in his memoran- Idum, that we deserted him at the last moment. As a matter of fact, it was he who deserted us when he had to come to a painful decision.

It is fair to stata that it is my recollection that Mr. John Burns was opposed to war in overy con- tingency and he was no party to the agreement about Belgium.”

What Lord Morley Said One of Lord Morley's main points was his conviction that the invasion of Belgium was leas important than It is very difficult to answer a commitments to France in post-humous attack, especially from bringing Great Britain into the war. an old colleague for the fact that He afirms that up to the last he is dead makes it invidious to say moment Mr. Lloyd George was with quite freely what one thinks either him and Mr. John Burns (who alko of the attack or the attacker. resigned) in opposing war even in

Later the same day he says:

The next day he explains Mr. Lloyd George's decision not to re- sign by suppoaing him to have been Liked round", by "the splendid condottiere at the Admiralty" (Mr. hurehill), and to have "found in

With the exception of Mr. Burns, the members of the Liberal Cabinet who were opposed to the war were all in complete agreement that it Germany invaded Belgium we should have to take up the position which Mr. Gladstone assumed in. 1870-that Britain was in honour bound by her treaty obligations "to defend the integrity of that little country.

.No Alternative: When it was clear that Gormany intended marching her forces through Belgium I felt that we had no alternative but to stand by our treaty obligations. When I put that to Lord Morley he agreed. "But," he said, "if there is war I shall be of no ase in the Cabinet

Energy

"The longer I live the more I am certain that the great difference between men, between the feeble and the powerful, the great and the insignificant, is energy- invincible determination, a purpose once fixed and then death or victory. That quality will do anything that can be done in this world; and no talents, no circum, ... stances, no opportunities, will.make, a two-legged creature a man without it,”

Sir T. F. BUXTON, Bart.

The use of Sanatogen for a few weeks means an entire overhaul of the whole imechanism of Health. Sanatogen, by power of its two constituents-albumin and phosphorus-re builds every cell of your body, renews the blood, gives new strength and energy to the debilitated nerves and enables you to do twice- as much twice as well. Sanatogen is a true conqueror of fatigue. Prof. Mann, formerly of Oxford University, wrote:

*A building-up process goes on in the nerves

after the administration of Sanatogen.”

Start taking Sanatogen to-day. Irritability, depression, sleeplessness, fatigue and all other symptoms of nervousness will quickly vanish" and you will begin to enjoy better Health, greater Energy and a happier life.
