The Horror of it.
THE HONGKONG DAILY PEESE, SATURDAY, APRIL 5TH, 1919,
Vigorous, healthy folks simply cannot imagine what a horror, what a death- in-life Indigestion really is. They speak lightly of it and "say: Foor and-So bas Bome trouble. So
stomach.
Some trouble," forsooth.
Of all the ills that afflict humanity none causes more misory than Indigestion. When digestion fails, life itself ebbe away, just as a steam engine stops when the coal gives out. If you cannot digest your food as the furnace barns the cond --your heat, power, energy must run down. Continuo this condition and your engines will stop!
is simple matter to take thirty little Mother Seigel's Syrup in a drops of water whenever you feel the tendency to liverishuces or have partaken heartily ei food that is liable to disagree with you; yet thousands of people avoid the con sequences of biliousness and indigestion ru just this simple way
Over a long period, I was attacked by judigestion, and it would be impas sible to exaggerate my misery and suffer ing. I was unable to keep any food down, and after eating suffered from tar- rible pains in the stomach and chest, and around the heart. At night was restless, and unable to alcop, and

INDUSTRIAL UNREST. FINAL EVENING PERFORMANCE
DEBATE IN THE LORDS.
The House of Lords on February 18th, on the motion of Lord Buckmaster, con- sidered the problem of industria) unrest, and so many Peers were anxious to speak that at dinner time the debate was ad- journed. The Lord Chancellor took the occasion which offered of making his maiden
speech in the House over which he presides, and intervened early with a declaration of Government policy. He had little, if

most grave, yet assured that the good sense of the. British working-classes could safely be trusted, and that the small section which was sedulously spreading revolutionary doctrine could be kept well in hand.
There will be no want of firminces," said the Lord Chancellor, in dealing with these, and he took comfort from the fact that in the period immediately. succeeding Waterloo and the end of the long French War the spirit of sedition wha much more widespread in England than it is to-day.
The message which ho gave to the miners and to all the other classes of workmen, who are now in negotiation for the realisation of their respective national prógrammes, was, Trust the
fellow-coun- doverament. Trust your
trymen. If you can point to a single wrong it shall be remedied. If you can show that others are receiving more than their share of the profits of labour, the matter can be dealt with at the National Conference." The Governmcut, he said, were anxious to get at the truth, and Lord Birkenhead suggested that when they go at it they could be relied upon not to shirk the responsibility of acting. While analysing with his usual dialec tical skill the leading causes of the industrial ferment, be

The Lord Chancellor put it ovan more incisively, "The nation," he said, has been living on its capital, and- This, however does not liking it.
frighten the majority of the working- classes. They turn a deaf ear to theso who prophesy calamitons results, for they firmly believe that there exists, in Lord Buckmaster's phrase, an unfathomable reservoir of public wealth," from which, with the aid of the Government, they can draw at will. The only chance of safety is to expose the fallacy to the working

"BLED WHITE BY TAXATION."
Lord Lansdowne agreed with Lord Buckmaster that one of the main chuses of "barest had been the inmenso profite made during the last few years, even though so large a percentage of them has boon taken by the State in the shape of excess profits He owned to a feeling of profound dismay when he saw how our indebtedness way increasing Five millious a day were still being added to the debt, though the taxpayer was being. "We must bled white by taxation." have sounder Inance," was his conelu- sion. Frugality and industry were the only way. Yet from all sides, as the Lord Chancellor said, there is köpt up a continued and increasing pressure upon the Treasury. Moreover, it was tacitly admitted by all the speakers that vast sums would have to be spent. Stress was laid upon the horrible hous ing conditions of large sections of the population; the Government were urged by Lord Buckmaster to yield to the very last inch of just concession, so that if, unhappily, it came to pitched industrial etrife, the public conscience could be easy that nothing had been left undone. He suggested, again, that it would be bet ter propagande to convines the British people that Bolshevism had proved. ghastly economic failure in Russia than to go on recounting stories of the hor rible atrocities committed by its votarios; Yeti, as he says, the people do not believe the horrore how are they to be convinced of Hussin's industrial ruin. and the evil plight of her workers?
A SUPER-WHITLEY COUNCIL The speech of Lord Islington was ́ORSÍ in a different mould. His main concern wils to sketch out a plan for the creation of permanent machinery for remedying evils which are universally deplored. How can unrest be prevented from reach. ing the dangerous pitch at which it stands now! How can industrial dis putes be settled before they become dangerous? Lord Islington's idea is to develop the scheme of the Whitley Councils to its fallcat capacity, to make them obligatory in every industry, to make every trade union an incorporated working at society, and make every man
