BOBS’ DUKEDOM.
MONETARY REASONS WHY IT PROBABLY WILL NOT MATERIALIZE,
That Lord Roberts should receive the Order of the Garter left vacant by the death of the Duke of Argyll, is ex- tremely fitting and probable, since it is a distinction that is far more highly prized by Englishmen than any other gifs in the power of the Crown to bestow. No Briton called upon to
hoose between the Order of the Gar- ter and one or more steps in the peerage, would hesitate for one single moment, and would invariable select the Garter, which, during the century now drawing to a close, has never been conferred for military services save in the case cf the great Duke of Wellington. ‘There are not more than 20 British nubles of the highest rank who are decorated with the Blue Ribbon | the other knights consisting of foreign, | sovereigns and only five members of the English Royal Family. Nor is there a single English peer under the rank of earl who possesses the Order; and it may be added that neither the Duke of Argyll, who is the son-in-law ot the Qneen, nor the Duke of Fife, who is the son-in-law of the Prince of
omg
most ancient and the most illustrious order of knighthood in the Old World.
While the gift of the Garter would be to Lord Roberts a peculiarly appro- priate token ef the recognition of his
the one which he would himself prefer and value more highly than any other, it is extremely unlikely that he will be created a duke. Iam sure that if it were offered to him he would decline
the offer will not be made. It is not
serve the very highest homours in the power of a grateful nation to bestow; but it is owing to a question of money. Lord Roberts is not arich man; in fact, it is doubtful whether he has any fortune to speak of. . Now, in the only two cases in which the English Crown conferred dukedoms for military ser- vices—namely, those of Marlborough and of Wellington—hereditary pen- sions of $20,000 a year were granted in each instant, added to which, the first Duke of Marlborough as well as the first Duke of Wellingten received considerably over $5,000,000 apiece in the shape of Parliamentary grants, 11 order to enable then to maintain their dukedoms in a fitting style. Besides
| Duke of Wellington receiving Strath- fieldsaye. Now, the English Government, and, | in particular, English Parliament and | English taxpayers, has become much more niggardly in the disbursal of pub- lic money and of national funds than one hundred and two hundred years ago. And there was so much trouble in getting Parliament to pass even the small $150,000 grants in favour of Lord Kitchener, Lord Wolseley, Lore Napier, etc., on their elevation to the peerage for military services that it Is difficult to imagine for one moment that the legislature would be willing te- day to vote a stm of several milo: dollars 'in order to dower a dukedom for Lord ‘Roberts. Yet, without an endowment of this kind the gift of a dukedom would be something akin to a white elephant. A poor duke, that is tosay one who has'not the means adequate to s‘up- port his rank, is an anomaly, and far worse off than a pauper, since he has no means of fulfilling the obligations of his position. So thoroughly is this realized that there are several cases on record in English history where the sovereign has deprived a duke of his rank on account of his being without | sufficient property to maintain the dis- tinction with pestige and dignity. Lord Roberts, who is now a barea, will probable be raised to an earldom, and inasmuch as he lost his only son during the war the patent will be made

his death pass to his eldest daughter, and her heirs, male or female. This, together with a_ grant of say $500,000, or pernaps only half that much, will, in conjunction with the Order of the ! Garter, constitute in a probability the reward of Lord Raberts for bringing the Boer war toa_ successful conclu- sion, and for adding two valuable provinces in the English Empire.— Ex-Attache, in N.

VARIOUS ITEMS.
The failure of the United States wheat crop will make itself most strongly felt just about the time the farmers are called upon to vote for
‘Mckinley and prosperity.”
Recent events in China bring to mind the fact that General Gascoigne is in command of the British troops in
Hong Kong. Mrs. Gascoigne, in let- ters written after taking up her resi- | dence there, appeared much pleased with life in the Chinese city, but it may be that it will become impossible for foreign ladies to stay there in comfort. That is,if Russian complications should
ensue.
War has its uses. Having been thoroughly instructed in the geography
of South Africa, civilization is now
turning to the study of the map of China. Mr. Fielding frequently boasts of his surplus. Mr. Paterson has just declared in North Wentworth that if the Conservatives had been in office the surplus would have been $6,000,- ooe larger.
Lord Salisbury seems to be among | those who think that the Chinese
trouble will b2 settled without war
with the whole empire, and that quick-
ly. There is a possibility of this, and
because Lord Salisbury is not usually
given to look en the bright side of
things many will expect the possibility to become a fact. China is the freak
of the family of nations in many ways
When then British troops entered Heidelberg bells were rung and flags hoisted in token of welcome. There seems to be those among the burghers who will be glad to see British rule es- tablished. It may be that when peace is made they will be found to be a majority.
Had Piles For 9 Years
Dominion Inspector of Steamboats Cured
by Br. Chase’s Ointment.
False modesty and fear of the sur- geon’s knife prevent most people from appealing to their physiciaus for a cure for piles.
Many people suffer on year after year, robbed of their rest and sleep by the terrible itching, when they could be entirely cured by a single box of Dr. Chase’s Ointment.
Mr. O. P. St. John, Dominion inspece tor of steamboats, living at 246 Shaw street, ‘Toronto, states:—‘‘I suffered for nine years from itching piles, at times being unable to rest on account ef the annoyance caused by thera. After trying almost all remedies in vain I pegan the use of Dr. Chases Ointment, which entirely cured tne. I cannot speak too highly of it. I have recommended it to severai friends, all df whom have been cured by its use.”
Dr. Chase's Ointment is recognized by physicians, druggists, and the pub- lic in general as the only absolute -ure for piles; €0 cents a box, at @t) dealers, or Edmanson, Bates and Co., Toronto

i have some good advice tor vou, My merry litt'e man;
‘Tis thig: Where’er sour lot is cast, © do the best you can;
Anq find the good in everything, No matter what o where; \_
And don’t always be looking for The harde-t thing to bear.
O do no stand with idle hande And wait for something grand, While precious moments slip away Like grains of shining sand! — Bat do the duty nearest you, And do it faithfully; For stepping stoaes to great-r things These little things shall be.
There’s work fur ali co do;
Jast measure by the Golden Rule, That which is set tor you,
And try it with the square of truth, And with the line of right:
Iu every act and thought of yours O keep your honce bright !

—The Glasgow Weekly Mail publishes the following verbatim report of the chair- man’s speech in giving the toast to“ The Queen ” at @ recent agricultural show dinner ia Scotland: “ Noo, gentlemen, willye a’ fill your glasses, for I’m about to bring forrit’ T«e Queen.’ Oor Qa een, gentlemen, is reslly » wonderful woman, if I may tay it ; she’s ane o’ the guid auld sort.
