The high ministers of the Crown continue to give their secret sympathies and aid to the cashiered General Tung Fu-hsiang and the ex-Prince Tuan, because this is pleasing to the majority of the Princes. Hence those who really oppose the above outlaws d re not openly show their feelings, content to 'await the decrees of fate. A little over three weeks ago news from Kansu gradually filtered into Peking that Tung Fu-hsiang had proclaimed adherence to the depose Teir Apparent, Pu Chus, son of ex-l'rince Tuan, and was prepared at any moment in march with 200,000 men upon, and seize xian and make that city the capital of the new Emperor. This news getting to the ears of certain of the Foreign Ministers in Peking they informed Prince Ching of it. Although this was known to that personage it was not until than that his Highness thought of telegraphise to Linchou (capital of Kansu)

REFORE, WE CAN

use them, iron and gold must first be got our of the ore. The same principle applies to cod liver oil. Its virtues are not in its fatty matters; much less in its sickening tasty and smell. No consumptive, or sufferer from any other wasting. disease, was ever greatly bene- The shock it gives to the nerves, the repulsion filed by the so called "plain" cod liver oil.

and disgust it excites in the stomach, the autrages it commits upon the senses of smell and taste, are enough to spoil any medicinal potency that may be in it for the majority of people. This-to say nothing about its being indigestible. Yet there his always been reason to believe that, among the elements which form cod liver oil, there existed curative properties of the highest value. But it was necessary to separate them from the nauseating waste material with which they were com bined. This was successfully accomplished in

WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION and in this effective remedy, made palatable as honey, we have the very heart and soul of Pure Cod Liver Oil, combined with the Comp. Syrup of Hypophosphitea and the Extracts of Malt and Wild Cherry. These constitute a tissue-builder, a blood purifier, a health renewer beyond comparison. Disense yields to it with a completeness and rapidity which astonishes medical men quite as much as it delights their patients. In all wasting cor- ditions, Screfuia and Blood Disorders, La Grippe, Chronic Bronchitis, Pulmonary

Affections, etc., it never fails to relieve and

cure.

Dr. Louis W. Bishop says: "1 take pleasure in saying I have found it a most efficient preparation, embodying all of the medicinal properties of a pure cod liver oil in a most palatable form." It stands in the front rank in the march of medicine. No slow or doubtful action. Effective from the first dose, "You cannot be disappointed in it." Sold by chemists here and everywhere and. A. S.
