PREMIER SCHREINER

ani;

vcisational, almost jerky in speech, but with aflavor of bitterness added to his reason.” I ilu these terms did the late Mr. G. \V. Steevens sketch the Prime Minister of Cape Colony, after the brief visit to the Capetown Parliament last October.

This capable, boyish-looking politician

has had to play it part of supreme diffi- culty during thc past eight mouths and more. As a. Minister of the Crown he determined to act with loyalty, but as at leader of the Dutch Afrikander party no policy of aggressive loyalty was possible, otherwise is influence viou ave been shattered. His followers would have re- volred from him, and there woul_rL_li§_v;e been a. general risingof the Cape Dutch.;| |

¥Villiam Philip Schreiner was the son

of u German missionary in South Africa. His mother is an English lady, nee Miss Lyglall-a name his sister, Olive Schrein- er, introduced into ‘The Story of an Afri- can Earm.’

AN AXGLO-AFRICAN EDUCATION. ~

At the South African College in Cape-

town one of the finest educational insti- tutions in the British colonies, Mr. Schrein- er went to school, and at once gave proof of his great talents. When he left the college he carried with him the Chief scholarship-one of £200 a. year-awarded to a student proceeding to an English university.

Thus to England, while still a boy, came

Mr. Schreiner. Cambridge he chose, and his name was enrolled at Downing College in 1879.Further honors lay beforehim-the greater ones in the examination rooms, lesser ones under the open sky. For hr rowed in his college _ boat what time Downing stood high in the first division on the Cam. _

Begginning with a small law scholar-

ship, the colonial undergraduate concluded a. brilliant careerat the university by com- ing out first in the Legal Tripos, and being acclaimed Cha.ncellor's legal medallist. His high success gave pleasure to ai host of friends, for Schreiner was a most popular man at Cambridge, and Downing elected him a. Fellow.

\Vhile still an undergraduate, Schrein-

er had eaten his dinners at the Middle

hundred in ox-waggon and mulecart. But to the young barrister this was high holiday, for his early home was a mission station in the wilds of Kaffraria, where he used to wander far afield, his constants companion being his sister Olive.

His success at the Bar was instant and

great. In addition to legal attain ment of extraordinary merits, Schreiner-en.i0Y@<l an intimate knowledge of the Dutch lan- guage, Dutch character. “ml D““’h “U S'

“ Doctors failed to

reach my case and advised me to try a. higher air.” I

There is no greater irony than a recom-

mendation of change of climate to those whose circumstances make change of

climate impossible. How many a suf- ferer in suc a case has wistfully watched the flight of the south-seeking birds, and cried with the Psalmist, “ Oh that I had wings.” But suppose you can fit the lungs to the climate instead of fitting the

climate to the lumps. That is what has been found possib e by those who have used Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis- covery. It so urifies the blood, remov- ing the clogged)a.ud poisonous conditions favorable to disease, that the whole bod is strengthened. With new strength comes new power, and disease is resisted and thrown off.

There is no alcohol, whisky or other

intoxicant contained ip

“ I feel that I owe a debt of gratitude to you

for preparing _such grand reme ies. for chronic diseases especially, which the doctors failed to reach,” writes I. B. Staples, Esq., of Barclay, Osage Co., Kaus. “ I am a railroad agent, and four years ago my work keeping me in a warm room and stepping out frequently into the cold air gave me bronchitis, which became chronic and deep seated. Doctors failed to reach my case and advised me to try a higher air, but, for- tunately for me, ri friend also advised me to try Dr. .'Pierce’s medicines. l commenced taking 5-_our ‘Golden Medical Discovery,’ and by the time 1 had taken the Srst bottle I was better, and after taking about four bottles my cough

was eutirelfv gone. This was a vear ago last winter; an again last winter I tool: about three bottles to prevent a return of the trouble. I have found no necessity for seeking another climate."

Rebuked For Liquor At Fairs.

Catholic societies cf Chicago which per mit liquor to be sold at picnics and fairs recived it severe arraingement from speak- I ers at the meeting of t-he Cook County Board of the Catholic Total Abstinence union at Handel Hall recently, and a campaign for temperance among Catholic was outlined.

Don’t liiperiment,

Diarrhoea and Dyseutry are too

dangerous for you to triile with untried remedies.

Refuse any of the dangers or worth'

less diarrhoea compounds that may be offered you instead of Dr. Fowle{’s Extract of Wild Straw- berry.

Dr. Fowler’sExtra.ct of Wild Strawberry

for the past half century hashad phenome- nal success in curing Diarrhoea, Dyseu- tery,Cramps Colic, Cholora Morbus, Sum- mer Complaint, and all bowel complaints ofyoung and old. ~ Both the medical profession and the people have given it their entlorsatioi :as the only reliable and safe remedy for these dangerous and distressing- diseases.

There are some unscroupulous persons,

though, who hope to profit by the merit and popularity of'Dr. Fowler’s Extract of Wild Strawberry. They put up a so called “Stawperry Compound,” and some times succed in selling it to druggists and and general merchants representing it as the genuine. Even the wrapper is yellow in color, like Dr. Fowler’s, so as to decieve the very elect.

If you want to be on the safe side, if

you dont want to experiment or take; chances as to results, refuse any and every

n_ii_i§t_urc or compound that may

liable genuine Dr.Fo\vler’s Extractof Wild Strawberry, and every honest druggist and medicine dealer will give you what you ask for.
