Mr Cecil Rhodes.

To be disliked, or even hated, by tho c in opposition, and to ba respected and

I loved by those who give support, is the j 100 of many men who weild great power, j Particularly true is this in the case of Mr I Oacll Rhodes fsays the King), bat it is ai I difficult to understand why he is disliked

by some ac it is may to understand why he is liked by others. If his pereonalty reroaitip, perhapa, for ever, a puzz c, 1b li merely because Rhodes is a greater man than most) men, and the doings of great) men often remain misunderstood for years. He has no religious beliefs, except hip belief that religion is *to work for the betterment of the human befogs who surround ns,' and once, when the Bishop of Derry, who was then in South Africa, said to him, ' I fiuppnse yon are coming to hear me in jlondbosoh Church,' Mr Rhodes replied, * No, elr j I have mj own chapel!' ' Where is It V said the Bishop. 'Icis up the mountain,' was the reply. He is tenacious of money, for ha believes, rightly or wrongly, In its power* Gordon once bold Rhodes how he had been offered a roomful of gold by the Chinese Government for subduing the Taf Ping rebellion. * What did yon do V said Rhodes. ' Refused it, of course,' eafd Gordon. * What would you have done 1 ' I would have taken it,' answered the future * Empire builder' and as many more room fala as they would give me. Id is no use for us to have big ideas if we have not got the money to carry them out. He has faced death often and bravely. Like Gordon, who went through the dangers of the Chinese war with nothing bat ft cane in his hand, Rhodes faced the Msfabelea with a switch only, unguarded and unarmed. He is no coward, and the strength and fulness of his jaw, the grim determination of his tightly pressed lips, prove it. He is stubborn, too. *Yon are one of those men, 1 said Gordon, * who never approve of anything unless you originate it yourself.' Yet when Gordon was {starting for Khartoum, he wired for Rhodes, to join him, Gordon went to Khartoum and died. Rhodes, however, accepieda political office, and lived. ,It wae the parting of the ways between two great:inon, Mr Rhodes has often been heard to say, If I had only been there I believe I could have saved Gordon, and, whether or not, 1 am sorry I was not with him.'

September 3, 1901 DEAR Sir,—Possibly the short account contained in this latter., in reference to the use of PLAKTEKOA OINTMENT, may be of interest to you. We had jaafc removed from Blaekbridge to the Nai Nai whea my daughter Ethel had the misfortune to step on a broken tumbler, making a fearful gash, catting into the ball of the foot. *nd laying open the big toe in two halves. We hod it attended to, bub it seemed to bo getting worse, when, about five daya after the EC.'idcnt, we were advised to use PLALV TEKOA OINTMENT, baing assured that i PLAMTEKOA would booii heal it. At this time it was very bad, the foot; swollen and hard, and the wound had an angry j fiery appearance, and looked as if blood poisoning was setting in. However, we faithfully applied Plantekoa Ointment, and without going into details, soffloe to say that in a short time the f.oot was healed, she was able to pat her boots on and attend school again. I woold also like to state that t used Plantekoa Ointment for my son, who had a gathering or abscess in the eae. He was homo from work for some time with it and was in a bad atata. The discharge from the e;ir was of such a character that it would set up irritation on the side of the face, and the pain was vsry severe. In this case PJantekor* Ointment; was success* fully applied, and in a few daya my eon resumed work. I cannob recommend Plantekoa Ointment too highly. Yonrs sincerely, Mrs Jank Swan. This wonderful ointment onght to be in every home, not only to be there in case of accident or emergency, bob for everyday purposes, its uses are legion. It is sold by all the leading storekeepers and chemiste at 2h per large box, or sample boxes for sixpence, while to meet the demand for this ointment from fanners and others, for use with horses and cattle, ib has been placed on the market in half pound tins ab 4a 6cL Unsurpassed for sore shoulders, girth galls, etc. Have you tried PLANTEKOA, the Great Herbal Remedy for the Blood OHEAP MONEY CHEAP MONEY IN BUMS OF «§XQQ to £IC,QOO. | I /"COUNTRY, CITY, AND SUBURBAN FREEHOLDS AT 4J PEE CENT.

Ross Antidote Company. Dear Sirs, —I feel it my duty to give you this enclosed testimonial In favor of Ross Antidote for purifying the blood; I have been a great sufferer for many years from ulcerated stomach, indigestion, etc. My life was a perfect misery, and I was almost a wreck. I grew l tired of trying different medical men and ! reraedJes, of which I had triei almost every known one bat yours, and one day some eighteen months &(*o & gentleman came into the shop where 1 was employed. Ho remarked Mack, you. look very ill' (and you may depend I was), Be added,' Will yon take some medicine if I procure it; I replied I will cake anything. He brought mo a bottle of your Antidote, ana I took it accordingly aa directed, and to my ! delight I began feD geb well, and after taking three large bottleo I was a new man—thanks to your great discovery. I always keep ib by me, and find a few doses occasionally keep me in perfect health, and I wish you the success with ib that each a medicine merits. You can make what use you like of this. —I remain youre, etc, J H Pauling, Masteefcon Mf*y be obtained from Mkssus Fletcher , Bros and Shearman Bros, Aahburton " 9232
