M. Gachhoff, remarking that the country was particularly sensitive in regard to questions connected with the Far East, pointed out that, although Japan was reducing her Army, her economic conquest of Korea, Southern Manchuria, and part of Mongolia constituted s real danger to the integrity of the Chinese Empire and made it ineumbeat on Russia to pay particular attention to the economic interesta of her wealthy hat undeveloped Eastern possessións. There could be, of course, caid the Octobrist leader, no question of revanche, but sacrifices might be needed to maintala Russia's position in the Far East. should be understood the: the internal pacifion tion of Russia guarauteed the au dess of a fresh attempt that she might make to defend

M. Milyukoff also raised a warning against erosive optimism in regard to Manchuris, where the policy pursued, he said, was not one of open doors but of apheres of influence. It was argently nessary to pay attention to the chorus of compteint in the Far East against the action of the Japanese in Korea and Manotaris, and, be remarked, it would be an extremely unscund policy to permit complacency regarding the Far Eastera situation as it would lead to the indigene of dangerous enterprises in the Near East an enterprise, the Constitutional Democrat leader declared, was that involved in the pro posal of Sir Edward Grey to secure the appointment of a "Christian Governor General" iu Macedonia,

Ac- cordingly there was nothing to prevent Russia, which required pesos abroad and tranquil regeneration at home from stretching out her hand to her opponent In Japan, too, pacific endeavours were undenbtedly to be perosived. Last summer Russia, concluded an Agreement with England, Japan's ally. It was true that only special questions in Contral Asis wore the subject of this Agreement, but it was undoub tedly a moral pledge for the maistenance of universal peso mad for the permanence of Husie's new relations with Japan. and the United States, too, with which Rusta maintained historically established and sincerely, friendly relations, were striving for the same goal as Russis, namely, the creation of a fem equilibrium and peace to the Pacific Ocssa. A whole network of international agreements consequeatly existed at present in the car Esal, The political atmosphere was especially favour able Dot only for Eussia, in particular bat als for general peace.

One's outlook on life is very largely a matter of temperament, which again depends on the bodily constitution. But to say that a person hat a good constitution usually means that he, or abe, is blessed, with naturally round internal organs that the digestive system is active doing its work well. And that is exactly why Mother Seigel's Syrup is such a power for good. It practically builds up for you a good constitu tion, because it tones up and strengthens every organ of digestion and enables you to assimilate Mr. Raymond Blathwayt. the well-known your food easily sad thoroughly journalist, writing in the Morning Leader" of June 27, 1906; says:-"There is not the slightest doubt but that a bottle of Mother Seigel's Syran can change the whole of one's outlook on life." Mr. Blathways had tested the Syray himself, and in the same article he says:"I susure you I have never had indiges- tion since that time."
You see, it is just like this! You must have food or you cannot live. You know that. And when you have a ten the food you must be able to digest it and get the nourishment out of it, or, again, you cannot live. Undigested food is of no more use to goa in your stomach than out of it-indeed, for a time you wou'd be much better off with an empty stomach! Of course, we do not mean to say that with indigestion
