There is general surprise in theatri- cal circles that Beerbohm Tree was | given the "cold shoulder" and passed | over in favor of John Hare, who was knighted on the king's birthday.

The following, however, for the cure of rheumatism und Kidney and bladder troubles receives the greatest praise, viz, Fluid Extract jon, one-hali ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup lla, three ounces. These simple, harmless in; jents can be obtained at any preséription phar- macy at little cost and are mixed by shaking well in a bottle. "The dose for adults is a teaspoonful ing a full tumberful of water after each dose. It is further stated that this prescription is a positive remedy for kidney trouble and lame back, weak bladder and urinary difficulties, espe- cially of the elderly people, and one of the best things to be used in rheumatic afflictions, relieving the aches and pains and reducing swellings in just a short while.

Pet erboro Examines. The plea of Hon. Mr. McKay, the liberal Ontario leader, for reform of law procedure in the direction of pre- venting the big purse trom oppressing tl r suitor, receives point from the fact that the Toronto Street Rail way company refuses to pay a widow $2,000 damages, the amount fixed by a judgment of the court as damages for the death of her husband. The company takes refuge in an appeal. Without reference' to the merits ot the case, this seems to be an instance of Providence being on the side of the big battalions--or big corporations. Mr. McKay points out that a rich corpor- ation, by appeal after appeal, can wear down a poor suitor and compel abandonment of a claim by default-- a tragedy in which justice plays no part. The long purse is stronger than the long arm of the law. He advo- cates a simplification of process which will prevent justice being drowned ir the abyss of a deep purse. Law isa good thing: but justice is a better, and equity an improvement on both. All Algne. Loudon Chronicle. . Some legends, especially those with a moral, die hard.
