SIR ALFRED MILNER

A " OApb Oolohist," writing to the London Times, defending Sir Alf red Milner from charges of parti sanship brought i against him by Boer symathisera, says:—" No Governor l into whose bands the destinieß of this I colony have been placed evinctd greater anxiety from the first than did Bir Alfred Milner to win the esteem and confidence of every nationality in this colony, especially the Dutch ; and to this end, acting on the well known maxim that to understand a people thoroughly, their tastes, sentiments, and ideas, you must in the first place itudy and become versed in their lan guage, Sir Alfnd Milner set himself I (notwithstanding hia multifarioui duties) to acquire a perfect knowledge of the Dutch language, engaging a Dutch Reformed Church minister as hia tutor, and so well did he succeed that at the late conference with the Presidont, Paul Kruger, he addressed him in good Oape Dutch instead of in stiS official English, conceiving that he could pay him no greater compliment than in 6iokiag for the time being his own anguage. Notonly so, but from'the ftrat Sir Alfred Mifner traversed the col ony from ?&it to west, attending every public function and entering heartily and with sympathetic interest into every effort made for the amelioration of the people of this colony, and so assiduously did he cultivate the good opinion of the Dutch colonists, that a leading member of the community, in speaking of him, said his only fault [was his 'Dutch proclivities.' But, alas ! his knowledge of the Dutch lan guage and his carelul daily perusal of the Dutch newspapers revealed a state of thing* for which he was wholly unprepared. In the pages of a large section of the Dutch press he first learned of the deeply laid schemes of tho Afrikander party to • throw off the foreign yoke* and to establish a Dutch Republic, and hia speech at Gr af Reinet was, I brieve, made after be had heard that some Afrikander at that place had fired at the Queen's flig. The p sition of Sir Alfred Milner hns for tho past six months been one of extreme difficu'ty and painful isola tion. With au unsympathetic, if not actually hostile Ministiy, with no official friend in whom he could confide and take" counsel, and with a full knowledge of the disloyalty and dis affection of a large number of Afrikan der colonists and renegade Englishmen, he has had ' to battle the watch alone,' conscious only that he was treading ihe path of duty to this colony and to his Queen afid country."

J <?*£ A JJ A T j 0 THE GREAT HERBAL REMEDY. ANOTHER GRB4T TRIUMPH OVB "HYDATIDS" A gratefnl Patient givea" unsolicited and valuable testimony to the (ffioaoy of this pteafc Herbal hprn-^y. Read carefully and investigate for yourself. 29 Paokmgeton at., St. ktlda. Mr S A Palmer, Vitadatio Institute, Bourke tt. Sir,—As loonsider Webben' Great Herbal Remedy, "Vitadatio," has been the sold means of saving my life I think the least I an do it to hand you this testimonial, to that others suffering the same as myself maj know that there is a certain reliable cure tot them in " Webber's Vitadatio," if it is only given a fair trial. The ample facts of mv case are as follows:—For the past 10 yean I haw been under the treahnentof doctors in Fil«rof and vSt. Kilda, as well as aome of the beet in Collins street. Soms were of opinion that I was suffering from consumption, whilst others crated it was pleurisy. At any rate they could give me no relief, let alone curt me. You can easily imagine that I had little hope of ever being cured. But one day-I noticed an advertised oure by "Webber's Vitadatio," and the symptoms of th« patient being somewhat similar to my own, I though! I would give it a trial, with the result 'that mnoh taking only two large bottle*, I fell) after better, and continued the medicine. Ky the time I had taken eight bottles I wasj wonderfully recovered, but one day took very ill, and vomited up a lot of slimy muter, which was afterwards examined by the doctor, and pronounced to be Hydatid*. I continued to vomit these "Hydatidt" for some time, bat at last it died away This naturally left me weak, but I continued with the " Vitadatio," and gradually my strength returned, until to-day I can honestly stara I have never felt better in the whole of my life. I consider "Webber's Vitadatio" a miracle-worker. I am well-known in Fitsroy, and ther<s are many others just as much astonished at my cure as I am. I shall be pleased to speak to anyone an<l give (beta my own experience of the worth of " Webber's Vitadatio." Y> v are et perfects liberty to make what u«- yon like of this testimonial. I may add I am r.™ able to do all my own household work ; a thing I bate been usable to do for years.—Yours very gratefully, Mrs) CARRIE HOCKING Witnees-G E Richardson, 19/9/99 VITALJArJUI-S v TRULY »iUt*L>ER* FUL MRDIOiNK.

N.O. It may be a question whether the editor of a newspaper has the right to publicly recommend any of the various proprietary medicines which flood the market, yet at a preventive of suffering we feel it a duty to aay a good word for Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera end Diarrhcct Remedy, We have known and used this medicine in our family for twenty years ana have always found it reliable. In many oases a dose of this remedy would save hours of Buffering while a physician is awaited. We do not believe in depending implicitly on any medicine for a cure, but we do believe that if a bottle of Chamberlain's Diarrhosi Remedy were kept on hand and administered at the inception of an attack much suffering might be avoided and in very many cases the presence of a physician would not be required. At least this has been our experience during the past twenty yeaw. For sale by A|fe« burton Drug Op. Pricei h, and }■ 6a,
