For Heartburn, Acidity, etc.

Bome years ago Messrs. Bavory & Moure obtained possession of a formula by the celebrated Dr. Jenner for a lozenge possessing re- markable power to absorb acidity in the stomach. They confidently recommend these lozenges, of which they are the sole manufactureTE as a safe and reliable remedy for HEARTBURN, FLATULENCE, AMIFFY, and digestive disorders. One or two. lozenges give immediate relist, when in the worst cases, and taken before a meal prevent those distressing symptoms due to indigestion which so frequently follow. Thousands of sufferers testify that they have -derived more benefit from Dr. Jenner's Absorbant Losenges than from any other remedy. They are pleasant to take and quite harmless. TESTIMONY.

LAW-AND ITS STAGE EFFECTS.

„[BY PÉTER O'DONOVAN }

"How much is the majesty of the law a matter of stage-setting and costume! 1 could not help asking myself this as I stood very diffidently in a corner of the court of the Lord Chief Justice of England and watched, “*

....... I asked myself this question, not in say spirit Aippabey, but in all seriousness. No ano

could possibly be flippant before that superbly impressive scene. The most resolute jester would-isy aside his motley as an unseemly garment. It is tha majesty of the law is its most majestic.

Even the room itself is impressivo Panelled high in rich, dark wood, its dignified lines are unbroken by windows. The light falls heavily" from "above, the high light which Rembrandt used to love throwing everything into strong relief and shadow.

In such a light and against such a back- ground, even ordinary faces assuze - curious diguity and significance. Every feature, every line, is accentuated. In some respects this is a very severe trat, but it is one which the presiding judges could easily stand. There are few more striking faces than that of Lord Reading, and his strongly moulded features stood out with. the startling vigour of a drawing by Holbein

In fact, the whole scena reminded one keenly of a vigorous and colourful paint- ang by some medieval artist, ». The red robes of the judges, their long wigs sweep ing down about their shoulders, the ermine of their espes, the rich gold chain of the Lord Chief Justice, the sculptured lion and unicorn behind his chair, the black gowns of the barristers, and the curiously aggressive wigs perched high on their heads with the two funny little tails that seemed to come straight out of the Middio Agos Not even the costumes of the onlookers could modernise the scene.

Some minor and technical point of lam was under discussion while I was present

Finally the matter was settled, and the courtrose,'- There was a scurrying of court attendents to hold curtains aside, there was a sweeping of red robes nad lá swaying of ermine capen and long, wigs, and then came out into the hustle and cfatter of Fleet-street to recover my sense of modernity. Perhaps the scene I had just witnessed was all the more impres sive to me because of my recollection of a Western American court which I had once attended during an important case. There the administration of the law was breezy and intensely democratic. The jadge and a very able and distinguished one, too-sat filted back in an ordináry Tarmchair."
