Riess, wife of a prominent business man of this place, has been in a serious "condition at her home here, suffering from a badly swollen inflamed arm, the result of a bite fro, a black spider. She was taken ill a week ago, but at first paid little heed. Her arm, however, quickly began to swell und a physician was called. It became ne- cessary in order to prevent the pois- oned matter from spreading to blister her arm, and for several davs she suffered excruciating pain. Her arm swelled to twice its natural size and for a time it was feared that compli cations that might result fatally would ensue.

There comes a time in the life of all women when they 'are face to face with a grave crisis; when there are distressing backaches, dizziness; when even some women are threatened with the loss of their rea- son; when they sufier because they are women. The happiness of women for the rest of their lives depends upon being safely tided over this crisis. Dr. Williams Pink Pills have proved a blessing to women and are particularly valuable at two riods--when gulbhood is critical pe merging into womanhood and when women are approaching the turn of life. These pills make the rich, red vlood that stimulates all the organs of the body, expels disease and makes the weary sufferer bright, active and strong. Mrs. A. Jones, Cypress hiver, Man., sayd: "Out of gratefulness feel that I must let you know the ood Dr. Williams Pink Pills have lone me. For years I suffered from in- flammation of the womb and kindred troubles. Only those who have been similarly afllicted can tell how much 1 suffered, or how dreary life seemed.

The | HICKS-BEA CH CAREER OFF AMOUS STATES MAN, ABOUT TO RETIRE. | The Many Important Public Of- fices He Filled With Credit And PBrilliancy--Is Not a Fossil At Sixty-Seven -- Works Of a Great British Statesman. Rt. Hon. Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, ive fias held many high positions in government, the last having been the . post "of _chancellor-ol the ex- wer, announces that he will retire rom the House of Commons at the end of the nt British parliament. It is at of sixty-seven that | Sir Michael s-Beach so 'soon fol- lows Sir Will Harcourt into re- tirement. He was born in London in 1837. The record of his life is with- out great event or stunning deed. He was educated at Eton and at Christ church, Oxford: At the age of twenty- seven he entered parliament and in {1868 had become parliamentary score tary 'to the poor law board. Thence on his life partakes of the terrible sameness which marks the careers of front bench men. Ancestors who toil- ed and spun; Eton and Uxford; the charmed commons at (wenty-cifht 'cr thirty; an undersecrotarvship of state two years later; high government of- fice three years after that; then a seat in the cabinet; then the invari: able chief secretaryship of Ireland, birthplace of reputations, where they succeed colleagues physically prosetra- ted by Irish persiflage. Only Sir | Michael seems mever to have been so prostrated. The remainder oi his ca- reer is mainly a string, of dates He was chief secretary for Ireland front February, 1874, to February, (1878, and -seovetary - of state for the Pale People® on the wrapper around | colonies from the last date to April, 1880. He was appointed---chancellor lof the exchequer in 1885, and again | secretary for Ireland in i586. He re- | entered the cabinet: in Uebenary, 1888, as president of the board of trade | Rgain he was chancellor of the ex chequer during the Boer war, which | sarved to heighten, before the Pritish ublic, a prominencé which before that i ual been slow com ag Not A Fossil. The disputes rife at the time suh- jected the character of Sir Michael to | analysis that often was far from kindly. Said one of the critics at the +Sir Michael Hicks-Beach is sixty- two years of age, slightly Mr. Cham- berlain's junior, and between six and seven years younger than Lord Salis- bury; so you eannot, even if you do not like his old-fangled views on cer tain subjocts, describe him as a fogoy or a fossil. He is certainly not a mere old fogey in his way of speak- ing, which is forceful and emphatic, and you would not call a man a fos- sil who has been in the inner ring of the cabinet since the present govern ment came into office, and had his say in all the great deliberations of that 'body. . Looking through his record as r minister, bearing in mind the esteen in which he is certainly=held--particul arly, it is whispered, when not speak ing on ticklish foreign affairs--amon; his colleagues in the government, an recalling. his patriotic speeches on th Egyptian question, among others it recent years, you will recognize tha he js very far from being a cipher and that for good or evil he, whii chancellor_of the exechequer, has hac a great hand in the war." Critics of the day, much more candid held that the refusal of Sir Michael t provide necessary fnoney for transpor to South Afiica ca many of tbh serious hitches in the South Africar campeign. "But," adds one of them "in- all probability the general view of the public and of both great po litical parties, if it could be expressed would be that he prove himself on the whole a good peac minister in the days gone by, and n one would desire to rob him of hi well-earned reputation as a faithfi! and reliable coll e and a hard working man in his rtment.

Agein, no one will deny, that hr had a way of forming his views or great political tions which cam within his --proviage. When his min ; with \ { 3 was made up he shut it as tight and as sharply as Dickens my iss Murdstone snap together her reticule. Unlike the amiable Sir Henry Camp- bell-Bannerman, Sir Michael Hicks- Beach recognized very clearly the truth of the old Latin saying that ft is 'a vain thing to try and please everybody. . "Sir Michael Hicks-Beach 'is not ex: actly a man giited with a lofty im- ination, and that he is a complete stranger to the glowing imperialist fecling of England to-day bas long been perfectly evident. His refusal to help Mr. Rhode's great scheme of com- munication between South and North Africa, which so delighted the Litde England Press and Sir William Har- court, is but one instance out of many which show that his enthusiasm for what may be called the new national litics, -if-it exists at all, is kept under remarkably good control some people may still remember the awkward hitch about Australia. and the duties on wines.' At the commencement of Queen Victoria's jutilee this 'posi (ion was far from comfortable. It was then that he had been re-appointed for another term at the Irish office. His health was bad. His eyesight had be come affected. = And: presently Mr. Bal four was ruling the office in his stead. A great continental oculist cured the invalid, who soon returned, though never quite to the same prominent po- ition in his party. The presidency of the board of trade was at once turned upside down and emptied for his benefit; since 1805 he has been chancellor of the exchequer. But priar to his Sabbatical year, besides the Jast mentioned office, Sir Michael bad held the leadership of the Housq of Commons. Only once, some six yéars ago did this parliamentarian, whose chily manner had kept as an abstraction, drop his veil for the moment, and the British had a glimpse of passion in his dramatic declaration before the cominons that the government was resolved to maintain the "open door" in China, '"'evén at the cost of war." fhe popular imagination seized upon the phrase, and next morning Sir Ni chael found himself the most talked-of man in the kingdom. But the' lavish exploitation of his name, and the hy} sterical outery for war that followed were so little to his liking that he withdrew again quietly into his offici- al, shell, and, though the phrase is still remembered, Sir Michael is the last person in the cabinet to be identi fied with a rash and impulsive. policy. Perhaps the only other salient indi- dent in his life was his later elevation to the House of Lords. If his party did not love him, thev all respected hin, He was not faceti ons; -notoriginal, and in addressing the House of Commons he gave the impression of a man repeating his periods from memory, and, as he ap- neared to he often on the razor-edge of forgetfulness, the effect was rather painful. But he spoke with singular force, and could give new interest to the trite subject of finance by the hap- py faculty of conveying a<vast am- ount of valuable information on the old theme in an extremely clear, and concise wav. At times he used plain. down right English, where more dip- lomatic speakers prefer gentle lan. ruage. At the time of the Fashoda af- fair, when France exhibited a good leal of feeling against England, he said 'that the latter was not on that account "to be worried out of Eq pt." Of a retiring disposition, he is the least known of anv prominent English statesmen. He wears wretch- edly cut. clothes, seldom talks for pub- lication and never submits to @&n in- terview, His FPorsonal Appearance. Very tall and spare, Sir Michael was as straight as a poplar. The um- srella, without which he js rarely seen sutside, looked strangely short as he swung it in his hand, crossing Palace card, He has a thin, refined, though ruddy face, with delicate forehead, on vhich the hair curls slightly. Lhe nose vas straight and the mouth rather ard, withthe expression of a man wecustomed to bitter thoughts. Feards are out of fashion among modern tatesmen, but Sir Michael was one of the few front bench men who aia not shave. At his short. dark heord, turning" gray, he - picked nervously ith his taper LDR ul be 80 wid the treasury bench. He usually sat Jdoof from the others, and |stened to obate for a long spell without ex- hanging a word with a colleague. For QOSsip light talk he appeared to have nogf¥nclination. Many of the (uestions "which interest the metaphy- sical mind of Mr. Balfour must ap- sar to practical Sir Michael to be 'ain and idie. When parliament was not sitting he was seldom in his office, but either at 1is London house or his country seat, vetherhaven house, in Salisbury, vhere he kept two alert private secre taries terribly busy; and he had a third stationed at "the treasury" to 'vok after things there. Sir Michal had a great knowledge +f men and affairs, was a staunch 'hurechman, and an excellent represen- ative of the governing country gen- lemen aud quarter sessions statesmen vho have dove so much for the honor wl dignity of their country. "Agri. -ulture," he once, said, "is after all he greatest interest of England." He somes of a family--the Hickses--able 'o trace their forebears back to the time of Henry VII Campaign managers sometimes were wthered in introducing a speaker vearing so awkward a name.
