No part of a man's or a ivomaa's education i s o valuable, ijoininerciaUy or socially, as a fluent kaowledge of French, To speak French Buently one must leara it i n youth. The child can learn it quite easily, if he or she associate with a Frencli-spealiing personhave a French .governess or a F r c a d i maid in the iotise, A V a l u a b l e Acquiisitton W h i c h C o s t s N o t h i n g Why not .give yaat children this opportunity of securing an invaluahle educational asset? Good French servaots are the best in the world, and coat no more than indifferent English ones, French nursery governesses are generally particularly anxious to come to England.

How To Do If.
An advertisement in the P A R I S " Daily M a i l " i s the best medium for securing a suitable French .maid. A small advertisement therein costs but a penny a word, and the paper will verify references given by applicants.

Engagement of French Servants Made Easy

Many persons hesitate to engage French servants because they have n o practical means of controlling or verifying the testimonials a n d references sent by applicants. The PAR-IS " D a i l y M a i l " furnishes you a means of getting over, this serious difficulty, and placing a reliable French servant within the reach of all who employ servants. .Send as many stamps^ as there are-words to your advertisement, and send stamps for reply, if you. desire the paper to investigate references furnished by applicants. ^ -.

CBIME OF COCAINE. ENDURANCE.

Alivo After Being Entombed Twentysix Days In Rabbit Warren, MLB. LIGHTER.
The Board of Trade Inquiry into the Grantham disaster was held yesterday, but for some reason which is not stated the proceedings were private. Twenty expert witnesses were called, and the same number of witnesses from Grantham Station. Interviewed yesterday, Mr. R . Bell, M . P . , denied the existence of a so-called secret report on

Almost simultaneously with the Imperial Chinesa decree against opium, the Government oi the Punjaub has imposed stringf;iit prohibitions tendering the mere possession o{ cocaine in any quantity a criminal offence. A yesterday's Exchange, message from Lahore says: Consequent on the serious increase in the cocaine habit in Delhi and elsewhere in the Punjaub, the Government has Imposed stringent pfohibitions rendeiifjg the mere'possession of cocaine in any quantity and any form a serious crime,

An extraordinary instance of a dog's wonderful endurance comes from Guildford, in Surrey. Bessie, the dog in question, is a very valuable OBCj and her deJighted mistress regards her escape from death as something like a miracle. That the dog is very little the worse far the adventuie was proved by her lively bark of welcome when the Daily mirror first saw her yesterday. As far back as August 28 Bessie thought she would go on a little sporting expedition of her own in the extensive grounds which adjoin the house, and chased a rabbit dowii a big hole. A Mystericus "Wlaine. Tiiat was the last that was seen or heard of her until Sunday last, when her mistress, happening to pass in the direction of the burrow, heard faint whines proceeding from it. Another dog noticing the sounds made for the rabbit-hole immediately. There his evident excitement made it apparent that he had discovered something extraordinary. The lady herself hardly dared to hope that the lost Bessie had been foundimagining that she had

Two men V7ere quickly on the spot, and with pick and shovel dug open a trench about eight or nine f ^ t long, p n going deeper they found t h e head of the dog wedged between some stones. , Bessie was still alive, after being twenty-six days in that coffin-like space without food, without water, and without any .room to turn, The anima! was tenderly lifted out of the hole, and it was then seen what a change had come over her. " Fat as a young pig " before she went in, she now appeared to be nothing but skin a n d bono, her ribs projecting painfully under her black and tan coat. Boon E e o o v e r e d , Very caicefully she was tak<ai into .the house and fed on warm milk -and water, quickly iscovering, even attempdng later on to playfully " b e g " .some meat from her mistress's hands. T h e effort was too much, and she fell over. A little later, however, the ruling instinct again proved too strong, and she was off after & mouse in the conser/atory, but that effort also was a little too ambitious. Yesterday she looked u p with bright eyes as the Daily Mirror patted iter.

" In England, of course, its sale is restricted under the Poisonous Drugs Act, but, as a matter of fact, an enormous quantity gets into the bands of people who ought to be prevented from using it, " It IS an extremely insidious drug, owing to its pleasant immediate effects and to the mistaken notion that it is perfectly safe. ", Cocainism is one of civilisation's new diseases, falling most heavily upon the extremes ol society the wealthy and the poor; the intellectual and the stupid. " It is a growing habit among the youth of both sexes. " In America theiuse of cocaine is far more extensive than in England. Only about 8 per cent, of the quantity sold can b e accounted for in legitimate ways. There its sale is scarcely restricted. I t is even hawked about by traveling pedlars," As 811 experiment the Daily Mirror called on half-a-dozen chemists and asked for cocaine yesterday.

FARES ON THE DISTRICT.

Monthly Season Costs More Than Fonr Weeks' Baity Rtarn Tickets Counting Six Days Weekly.
Season-ticket holders have just discovered tbaS they have a very just grievance against the District Company. They are paying more for tho privilege of a season ticket than by buying an ordinary return ticket daily. Take, for instance, from Hammersmith to the Mansion House. T h e third return fare is 6d., and the first return is lOd. The monthly season costs 12s. 8d. third, and ^ 1 Os. 6d. first, so that, reckoning six -days' travelling per week, it is cheaper to buy tickets dailyft state of things that does not exist on any other railway in the country. Several passengers on the District Railway who object to pay the increased fares have found a way, to circumvent the company.Say, for instance, a man wishes to travel from Ealing to the Mansion House.

, "Wilfully a n d maliciously publishing certain defamatory libet's of and concerning Seymour Hieks and Phyllis Dare on the 3rd inst." The: change thus tersely set out in. legal phrase-ology is the basis of what seems likely t o . b e one of the most sensational oases that has stirred the tiieatrical profession in recent years. Extraordinary public interest was taken in the preliminary stages of the case before the Liverpool stipendiary yesterday, when a young man, described as " Frederick Vernon D a r e , " was committed for trial- at Liverpool Assizes. The rather squalid police-court was- thronged with theatrical people, many ladies being present. Mr. Seymour Hides, with a grim look on his face, sat near to Mr, Gill, K.C., and Mr. J. B. Langdon, under-slierifF of f,ondon, who instructed counsel for the prosecution. \ The prisoner, who is stated to have been following the occupation ot a meehanical engineer m a Liverpool motor works, was undefended. H e is an attractive-looking man, with clear-cut, cleansh.T,ven features, ftud hair lightly flecked with grey. C o u n s e l ' s S t o r y of L l t i a l s . Mr. C. F . Gill, K.C., who prosecuted on behalf of Mr. Seymour Hicks, the well-known actormanager and hiTsband of the ever-popular Miss Ellaiine Terriss, briefly put the story of the alleged libels and the reasons for the prosecution. " D a r e , " he said, had been arrested on Saturday at the works where he was employed. The libel was exception.iUy atrocious, and the institu - - -^j^ said unfortunately Che report about Phyllis was

Mr, Gill pointed out that at the time referred t'* Miss Phyllis Dare was under sixteen, and the charge which the accused was rhaking was a criminal offence.

the Vaudeville Theatre has been followed by another equally great.

Mr. Charles Frohman, agreeing with Miss Edna ^May as to her reading of her contract, has cabled 'to Messrs. Gatfi, his co-managers of that house, seceding from the joint control of the theatre. The partnership thus dissolved has lasted six yearsMessrs. Gatti are as surprised with Mr. Frohm a u ' s attitude as they are with Miss May's, It is impossible; Messrs. Gatti claim, for Mr. Frohman.to have yet seen the advertisements and bills, because they only appeared last Monday, Miss Edna May's resignation,, though naturally regretted by the management, has so far had no adverse effect on the booking. The remarkable statement was made by Messrs. Gatti's manager yesterday 'that since Saturday applications for seats have increased by 50 per cent. " A t the present time we are making negotiations for some star to fill Miss May's place, but until these are complete her part will be played by Miss Ethel Newman." Miss May's resignation from the cast of " T h e Belle " has considerably upset Miss Camille Clifford. On Sunday ?he was obliged to remain in bed, and though she appeared at the theatre yesterday she was obviously very unwell. Happily, the unfortunate circumstances surrounding Miss. May's retirement have in no way affected her ^eiations with Miss Clifford. They have expressed mutual admiration for one another, both on and off the stage, and when she bade Miss Clifford good-bye on Saturday evening Miss May said: "Please understand that I don't blame you in any way."

The matrimonia! advertisement, cause of so many troubles, figured yesterday in a case at Croydon Police Court, when John Purdyj a dairyman, was committed for trial. Purdy is charged with iiKving stolen about .94 from his wife iraiaediateV after their honeymoon, and also with having fraudulently oljtained .9 from Sarah Elizabeth Winter, P u r d y , so it is stated, met the lady whom he married by answering an advertisement she inserted in a local paper. After the Honeymoon. The honeymoon was spent at Worthing, and on their return to Croydon Purdy is alleged to have induced his wife to withdraw a sum of ^Si from the savings bank. When he-had obtained possession of the money he disappeared. Mrs. Purdy, a thin, frail woman, garbed in blade, denied in the box that she had described herself as a widow, and the marriage certificate was produced in confirmation of the denial. Then Mrs. Winter, a widow, living at Thornton Heath, told of her relations with Purdy. In April last she wanted to sell her general business in Ellen-road, and prisoner, who gave the name of .William, called and discussed the sale. W i d o w ' s S t o r y o P r o p o s a l . During the month of May the prisoner saw her frequently, and on his proposing marriage she accepted him. H e suggested after some weeks that thej' should go into the greengrocery business together, and on a Sunday, either at the end of May or the beginning of June, she gave him two .10 ilotes. The shop was not opened, but the comparative cost of marriage " b y b a n n s " or special licence Was discussed, Shortly afterguards she lent him .15, which was to . be repaid with ^ 1 interest. H e repaid this sum with the interest at the end of a week. H e then told her he was going to take a public-house, saying that he had one in view at Bromley, and she gave him .30 and afterwards another .5. Further meetings followed,' and at one of them he gave her_ ^ 3 towards the rent in accordance with a promise. On July'2fi he called upon her and said he would have to break it off. " H e told m e , " went on witness, " t h a t a girl who kept house for him had cried and threatened that she would do away with herself if he did not marry her.

City men were agreeably surprised on arriving at their offices yesterday morning to find the American mails, which left New York only last Tuesday, awaiting them. This was due to the fact that the Kaiser Wiihelm TI., of the Norddeutschei-Lloyd, was able to leave H e w York two or three liours earlier than usual owing to the tides, and also to the fact that she made a very fast passage, beating her own record b y four minutes, and occupying only five day& eight hours sixteen minutes in the voyage.

O N S I D E R A B L E surprise has been expressed that the late J . I Toole should have left behind him so large a fortune. T h e net value of the estate has been sworn at a little under ^80,000. ,,^ There is really nothing wonderful about the ma^er. For something over thirty years Toole was the pet comedian oE Great Britain and Ireland, I n his own sphere ,he occupied a position analogous to that held in the realm of graver drama by his friend, Henry Irving.

ferred omnibuses to cabs, and third-class to firstclass railway carriages, because they afforded the best chances of studying character. So it is no matter for wonder that, despite his liberality to his unfortunate professional brethren and others who fell by the way, he should have left so much.

I t is, oi course, true that during the earlier years of his success the stage was not so rich a gold-mine as it has since proved. T h e half-guinea stall was an unknown quantityin fact, when Toole began his career the stall did not exist. T h e dress circle * * Jf was regarded as the best position in the. auditorium, There is also a story told by Mr. George R. and the pit came right up to the orchestra. Thousands of people can remember the storm of Sims-H3E which I do not guarantee the veracity disapproval with which the setting hack of the pit of how he once met a policeman in the neighbour-

The bear who aroused such consternation in Gray's Inn-road has had several predecessors. There was another beara Javau black bear, the strongest and most ferocious of his kindwhich escaped from Mr: Jamrach's depot in the East E n d , and was captured and brought back by his owner, single-handed. There was a tiger, who was discovered quietly trotting through a London street, with a baby, held by the petticoats, in his moutli, probably looking for a quiet spot where he might have lunched^on the b a b y ^ i n peace, and who quite amiably submitted to incarceration in a police cell imtil his proprietor came to claim him.

Will any gentleman who is anxious to make him*. self an efficient shot on an outdoor range kindly send me his name and address on a postcard? I have placed a scheme for the formation of a " Legion of Riflemen " before several of our most prominent soldiers, and they look upon it as praclicable, providing a .snfTicieiit number of membera could be obtaineci. Ten thousand would make the "legion a success, and rifle-shooting an fullyetjuipped outdoor ranges would soon become one of our great national piislimcs. T h e cost to each member of such an association would be about Ml per auiuim, and if that patriotism which is supposed to exist in Uie hearts of Englishmen docs acUially e.xist, then there should he little dotibt as to the success of such a movement.

I feel perfectly convinced that the only possible solution of this terrible disaster is the theory that it was a case of mental aberration on the part of the driver. This has been my opinion since the lirst details were published. Many people seem to have forgotten the circumstances connected with the G.W.R. smash at Slough a few years ago. I n that case the signals were dead against the driver, but he ignored them and ran into a train standing in Slough Station, Both the driver and fireman were saved, but the decision come to by the jury at the inquest on the bodies of the victims of the disaster was that it was a case of mental aberration on the part of the
driver. Q . COLR.

A L O N E L Y WOIL-VN. ARE CORSETS HSALTHV ?

I a m sure your readers are deeply grateful for allowing this important subject to be discussed. It is too of ten. tabooed. I should hke to ask how it is that a lady who, by skilful dieting and use of her corsets, retains a slender and dainty waist, is open to censure, while one who neglects her figure and becomes a shapeless and panting mountain of flesh goes free. I^ never see a husband accompanied with an example of the latter without a fervent prayer that such may never be my fate. Which aUo is the healthier here?

Your correspondent, " Tight Laced," is right. Nothing is more pleasant than the sensation of being tightly laced in a pair of perfect fitting corsets.

Toole's hold on the metropolitan public was probably greatest at about the time when he produced the late H . J . Byron's comedy, " The Upper Crust," at his own theatre in King William-street, which place, alas I knows it no more. I n subsequent years his popularity in London steadily declined. But, up to the time of his last tour, the provinces were un%vaveringly faithful. A fortnight before his arrival in Birmingham or Liverpool the walls and hoardings broke into a rash of bills announcing in huge letters, " T o o l e is c o m i n g ! "

The terms he received in the provinces were probabi;:' unrivalled by those accorded to any other Englisii actor of his generation, with the exception of Irving.

I n the " smalls " he look the theatre, paying the rent, plus a profit rental. And, as a "Toole h o u s e " was for years the current expression in the provinces for the best business, he must have made a large revenue. * * ^tOne of the most charitable and generous of men, his personal expenses were very sUghf. A quiet glass of whisky and water with a friend when his day's work was over was the limit of his dissipation, H e was never a heavy smoker, and towards the end of his life hardly ever smoked at nil.

An ingenious computation in the columns of our Parisian contemporary, " L a Libert^," estabhshes that the price of government is steadily rising with each generation. Under Napoleon an hour of government cost 115,000 francs. Under Louis Philippe it rose to 150,000; under Napoleon I I I . to 249,000. Now, under the beneficent regime of the Republic, it has risen to 300,000 francs per hour. It would considerably reduce taxation if governments were paid, not by the hour, but by the job. Anyhow, France, as Artemus Ward might have said, appeora to be " governed too much." Wc learn from W i l h f b a r r c (Pennsylvania, U.S.A.) thatPinkcy, " the richest cat in the world," is dead. T h e report is mistaken in its terms, inasmuch as a relative of Finkey is still alive, and has inherited the wealth of his lamented predecessor. Consequently, the surviving feline, whose nameregrettably for the fair fame of American journalismis not given, is tv/ice as rich as Pinkey could have been. H e is, in fact, sole owner of a properly left to himself and Pinkey by. the late Benjam.in 1'". D d k y , estimater! at the value of .e8,nno.

I agree with " F . P.'s " views on tight-lacing in every particular. T h e idea prevalent among females in general, that a waist of the smallest possible circumference is essentia! to-a good figure, I consider preposterous. As for men aping this " disease," had I my way, they shoidd have three months without option. Ai.ors. Westminster. IN MY GARiSEN.

Flaring sunflowers, graceful golden rods, rndbeckias with dark centres, are seen in semi-wild corners; where the ground is moist, white and red Japanese anemones are banks of colour. Monthly, Bourbon, polyantha, and other roses still put forth lovely bunches of flowers. Pale blue autumn crocuses peep from the thin grass. Scarlet lobelias greet one near the pond.

A great many people know nothing of these things, and are content to allow their money to remain in savings banks where the interest yield is so small as to be' practically worthless. Three per cent, may be all very well for the htdk of a man's spare capital, but it should ahviiys be remembered that very much larger yields can be secured with scarcely any risk. It is not, of course,, urged that a man should endeavour to utilise all his spare money at a high rate of interest, but that a certain proportion might be so used is coming to be a current view of the right side of things.

Miss E. Doris Appleby, of the Vicaragej Larobourn, Berks, was one of those many young girls who suffered from ansemic weakness. She used to be overcome by a feeling of weariness and helplessness which made it practically impossible for her to work or even think. Frequently slie would faint away. She was very much run down

fits caused through general weakness of the system. I have been taking your Iron-Ox Tablets for but a little while and already I am a different girl. My colour has greatly improved, I feel brisk and energetic and the fainting fits are a thing of the past.- I only wish that I had taken Iron-Ox Tablets long before. I shall tell my friends of their value. (Signed) E. DoRis APPLEBY." Just think of the change which Iron-Ox Tablets have wrought in Miss Appleby's" life. From anasmic weakness they have brought her back to vigorous strength. She is no longer subject ^to the terrible fits of faintness.which formerly attacked her. Hef colour has come back. Her appetite has improved. She has rriore energy and vigour. Now she takes an interest in life and is able to perform her household duties without difficulty. The secret of Miss Appleby's cure lies in the fact that Iron-Ox Tablets supplied her system with iron. They fed the red corpuscles which aro the, source of strength and vigour. Iron-Ox Tablets stimulated her appetite, improved her digestion, and enabled her to obtain full benefit from her food. They gently regulated Miss Appleby's system, and they purified and enriched her blood, thus removing the trouble at its source, A? Miss Appleby says in her letter she is a different girl now, thanks to the help she received from Iron-Ox Tablets. And this Splendid tonic-laxative will do as much for every other girl who is weak, ailing, and anasmic. Throughout the country there are thousands like Miss Appleby who can say: " I am well to-day and I owe my present good health to the healing powers of IronOx Tablets." Why should you endure that terrible weaknesswhy should you go on suffering' why should you be weak and enervated and oppressed^why should you let your ailment deprive you of half the pleasures of life when right within your reach is the remedy that cured Miss Appleby and can cure you ? It is well for you to know that Iron-Ox Tablets are a n absolutely safe remedy. They Can do you nothing but good. They help Naturethey do not attempt to force or stiain.

^ou must digest your food

If you are not digesting your food properly your body is not receiving proper nourishment, your nerves, your brain, your muscles are not receiving the fuel, the energy which they must have if they are to properly perform their functions. As a consequence of faulty digestion t h e organs of your body are not working properlythat means that poisonous waste is gathering in your blood. When we tell you that Iron-Ox Tablets can permanently remove all your digestive troubles we are stating a fact that has been proved in many thousands of cases. Men and women in all parts of t h e British Isles can testify from actual personal experience that Iron-Ox Tablets cure indigestion when other remedies are powerless t o help. Hundreds of doctors who use Iron-Ox Tablets regularly amongst their own families and patients have proved time and again that this wonderful remedy is the safest and best cure for all forms of indigestion. Iron-Ox Tablets will not only give you good digestion. They will strengthen your wlfole system, purify and enrich your blood, soothe and strengthen your nerves, give you good appetite, and help you t o sleep soundly and quietly.

Miss Appleby heard that Iron-Ox Tablets were curing anaemia and bringing strength to thousands of girls like herself. She made up her mind that she would let this wonderful remedy help her.

" A l a s ! There is no royal road of preven-, tion; but here are one or two of the latest ideas for alleviating the horrors of mal de mer and its after-effects. An American who lately crossed the herring pond says that just before sue sailed her medical man advised her to take with her a tin box of pop-corn, and directly she felt any indication of nausea to eat freely of the corn. Well, she didj with the result that never before had she travelled with the. same degree of comfort. T h e pop-corn acts as a counter-irritant on the digestion, and is, for reasons unknown, more efHcacious than the nibbled green apple or captain's biscuit, to which some people pin their faith. What to give the convalescent when recovering from seasickness is another problem. The foHowand the dangerous results of deck draughts. Miss Ellen Terry never fails to give advice to any friend starting for the other side: " D o not'forget your bag, whatever happens," and I here venture to quote her words. A most important purchase for any woman .with lank, straight hair is a "transformation" of naturally curly and short hair, which will stand wind and rain on deck, and will help to smarten her appearance to her journey's end. One. word now about the mosquito, that travellers, more especially in Italy, find sO trying at this time of year. The best way to keep him away is to screen doors and windows, and mosquito-curtains must besides be hung ovef tlie bed. Before retiring, rub on the face and hands some pennyroyals vvhich has a strong odour, but not an unpleasant one, and the mosquito will keep at a respectful distance. Eucalyptus and camphor in glycerine are also valuable preventives, and an aggravated bite may be treated with an application of one part of ammonia to two of water.

Walton in Brilliant Form, and Tottenham Win by 5 to 1. The Importance of Waitingf for Further DevelopmentsTo-day's FULHAM'S POOR FORWARDS, Newmarket Programme.

O n the d a y ' s play they were about the strongest side that has been seen out this year. T h e reason why was Woodward, _ , The whole team seemed to have four times the life and dash that they have shown before, Walton, of course, was the great star of the d a y : he played a wondertui game all through, skowed great pace, fine, head work, and t a e uaselfiahness. A^ has been said about him, h e is generaily about the best or quite the worst player on the iield. Yesterday he elected to be quite the best. Woodward and Hewittwho was grand alt throughfed him assiduously, and he picked up bis openings splendidly. T h e "Fulham defence, which has been so very strong, was absolutely beat for pace. T h e idea has been that it is nearly as easy to get inside a safe with a lobtnpicK as to get a goal against Fulham, T h e 'Spurs made nothing of their opponents' great reputation, played them like a team of schoolboys, and whacked them to death. T h e Fulhara halves and backs were good, of course, and they stuck to their guns like m e n : but luclt was not with them, and their forwards let them down hopelessly. Bell and Fraser worked very hard on the right, but their efforts were abortive. If Fulham mean to win _ the Southern L e a g u e they must get a new centre q u i c k ; " and that's sans phrase, a s Sapt likes it, to quote Anthony Hope. -T<) Tottenham, therefore,, " h a t s off"; improving, a s they have done lately, every time they get on the field, they.should do a big thing in the Southern L e a g u e , and represent the South with fine effect in the Cup-ties. .

But we were not bigoted in-those days, and when it became apparent that professionalism must come as a result of the great growth of popular favour for the s a m e we took the inevitable with a S^od srace^, and our F.A. councillors then as nowmen of absolute "pr'sW.neB3 and integrity-legislated for both classes "npartialiy, as they do to-day. And may I say I right here there h a s never been a breath of scandal against the administtation of the F.A. . , London for a long time remained amateur In name, ii not in heart. W e all k n o w - I d o , a t any rateof many clubs in the membership of the London F.A. who are really amateur In name alone. Some have been loumi out and ostracised, other* have been inspected and have escaped with verdicts of not p r o v e n ; bu si 11 there was the taint, and all wa3 not a s it should be in the mammoth inembership of the L.F.A, Meanwhile t h e game grew in the South, a n d , pa'tj^aU r l v in London, fiour shed exceedingly. Good class S sprang u p ' o n all hands. T h e Southern L e a g u e became a power'^ in the land. tS.e Arsenal got into t^f First-Division of the League, the 'Spurs won the Cop, and money flowed into the coffers of these cl^bs. Hut meanwhile they liad uo local autltority or asspcmtion to control their affairs, and the F . A . - t h e parliament of the g a m e - h a d to devote much of its time, o work of t h e parisTpump order, a great tajj on fairly tard-wovked committees. If every centre had kept aloof ! ' ' ' " ' * ^ ^ ' * lis part in the work a s ' London has done, matters would have become chaotic, instead, of working with the Well-oiled wheels of properly supervised macliiuery. So It came about t h a t tht F.A. said we have had *nouKh of this. T h e local association, if it js t o b e t h e governing council of any one district, must extend its membership to admit all Its parishioners, and London was called upon to take u p ils legitimate;part in the government of the game. ,For a long time this illadvlefed body was recalcitrant. I t owed no duty to the s a m e , and none to the public who yet paid their sijtpertces to see the play. I t wanted all the beaefita of good management and none of its duties. * tt * But this state of affairs ended. Levelheaded men saw the Inevitable just as they had done in the early days of the p r o f e s ; - ^ a l moveraent, and the wider scope of the association will e n a f e l ^ t h e L.F.A, to once more take u p its proper position in the world ot tootbaU, tnat of t h e most powerful affiliated association in the merabership of the parent body. I t is from this that the amateur defence council wishes to preserve us. I t would 68 a retrograde step really, and the wish is the outcome Of a spirit of snobbishness a n d class legislation whieh_ Is absoliitely at variance with all the best and truest inieresta of sport, wherein all men, whether pro. or amateur, Should be equal on the field. But of this more anon.

T h e Western L e a g u e gama at Chelsea, between the Second League -Side and Reading, was a_ very tame affair. Neither side put much spirit mto their play,_ana the exclianges were for the most p a r t conducted in a most leisurely manner. Nothing was scored. Aston Villa aad Birmingham met o n t b e Villa, ground, before a crowd of 8,000 spectators, in the final of the Birmingham Charity Cup, and an even game ended m a draw, Garratty scoring for the Villa and Beer for Birmingham. tt * Several games were played in the Scottish League, the Michaelmas holiday being observed in the North, i n e r e were p r t y big crowds. At Northampton a fast and wellcontested game under the cariymg eodc, between ISIorthampton and Plymouth, was won by Northampton by the narrowest possible margina penalty-goal and a try (6 points) to a placed S O C (5Apoints). .

YOUNG CORINTHIANS.

When I saw the 'Spurs beaten by W e s t H a m on ie openlhg day of the season I predicted a good season tor them. They have got off slowly, it is true, but that has been their only defeat in the League. Yesterday they joet Fulham, and, with V. J. Woodward playing his second came for the 'Spurs, the forwards were' absolutely brilliant, and many fast and clever Corinthian forvjard.iines would have m no wise made them look slow or aachine-like, It'-was, in fact, brilliance, added to clever combination, ti'hich brought about the rout of the vaunted Fulham flefeiice. and wo all know how good t h a t is. Walton, oa the right wing, ran just far enough, and always outpointed Thorpe, the opposing back and made Goldie look ft most moderate half. T h e first three goals were all due t o hiin and Woodward, although Reid got the credit for scoring two'and Dow the other. There was, in fact, only one weak spot in the Tottenham a t u c k , and that was Dow, at outside left. H e fs clever, but is still a trifte on the slow side. I n the second half, Tottenham still out-' Blayed Fulham nearly all the time, and Hewitt scored \ couple of clever goals for them. F u i h a m ' s point was fhe repult of a p e n a l t y k i c k given for " h a n d s , " and was Moored by Ross. "- -^ .^ ' \ I was glad to sec " Sandy " T a l t playing more like his self. His partner, p the Fulham forwards, but his Sid the feeble attacks ofChaplin, was good in breaking IcMiking lacked accuracy and power. Whitbourne kept Hoarfairly well, and was an Improvement on Eggett on Saturday. I should think t h a t the latter was indisposed then. H e was certainly out of form.

ARMY BOXING CHAMPIONSHIPS.

One did not see the Fulham forwards at ali hardly. They rarely looked dangeroun and T a i t and Chaplm held them comfortably. Hamilton was an utter failure, and would have been better out of the lino, and only Bell;was at all worthy, on yesterday's play, to be dcseiibed as first-class. But this, of course, was not the true form. They were, however, to be sympathised with, Bceing'that the halves concentrated on d e t e n c e . a n d left Jhe forwards to do their own fetching and carrying for 'the "most piirt-'K state of affairs which did not suit Hamilton, West H a m , who have already been spoken of as the l^tobable champions, had a rude set-back at Bristol Jestefday when they were beaten by the Rovers by 3 to D. Their defence, particularly Kitchen in goal, was exCelleiit u p to a point, and then gave way. Playing with great dpsh, Clark, Young, and -Walker beat Kitchen .(iflitly in the second half, and so were W e s t H a m beaten.

S . - I p h i ham is not a serious one. West London, the holders of the Shield, will have to travel twice, but they were ex- genia, and that experienced boxer. Private McLaughling, tremely pleased to find t h a t they would have the choice 1st' Irish G u a r d s , was rather unexpectedly beaten 1^ Trooper Cook, of the Royal Horse G u a r d i . of ground when meeting South London. In the other group Greenwich a r e t h e favoured o ! fortune. C e r t a i n ^ they have to go to Hackney, but this is mote than counterbalanced by their good luck In getting West H a m to come to them. Hackney, presumably the weakest of the four, have the advantage of playing at home in two out of their three engagements. T h e Corinthian competition is generally somewhat easy to forecast, and now that the matches are fixed one .can almost assume that Greenwich and West Ham, and West London and South London will be the eemi-finalists. Further than that it would be dangerous, to go. If, however, this prophecy is entirely upset by- the (rood play of sucli teams as Leyton, Walthamstow, and Hackney, it will be all for the good of the competition.

T h e heart is one of the most wonderful machines with which mankind is acquainted. T h e heart is the great fqrcing pump which forces the blood through the arteries, veins, through the lungs, a n d ' b a c k to itself again. T h e action of the heart consists m its contraction and dilation; it contracts over one hundred thousand times daily. Asleep or awake its action goes on, and, under ordinary circumstances, the action is so even and regular that one can hardly detect it. But, in a strenuous life, with the hustle, bustle, and worry of business, the beating becomes violent, and the throbbing can be felt in the head. Palpitation is a sure sign of weakness, cspeeially when it occurs without any ostensible cause, and points to the necessity of invigoration. T h e blood is the fountain of liffe, the liquid source of healtli and strength, the stream, at which the hungry tissues and nerves feed daily. But if the blood is weak and watery, then the flesh is pale, thin, and debilitated, the nerves get unstrung, and the heart loses its vitality. Palpitation, independent of disease, is liable, indeed is very liable, to occur in the young of both sexes, especially in- anaemic cases. The^ remedy indicated is to make every effort to build up the blood, and the best nutrient for the blood is "Wincarnis," the famous restorative. Every young man and every young woman engaged in city life who is thin, pale, and easily fatigued ought to take " Wincarnis " daily as a beverage. " Wincarnis" is the sheet anchor of health, it coun^ teracts the bad habit of taking nauseous, punishing drugs, it raises the stamina, increases the natural capacities for work and thought, generates energy and gives you a new lease of life.

Northampton, April 3rd, 1906. Dear Sirs;I wish to testify to the excellent merits of " Wincarnis " as a restorative and nervebracing tonic. It is certainly far superior to anything I have had brought before my notice claiming this virtue. Its palatableness, coupled with its efficacy, in cases of extreme weakness, both physical and nervous, should procure for it universal reputation. I shall not hesitate to recommend it. Yours faithfully, (Mrs.) E . C. A R I f O L D . Barnstaple, April 23, 1906. Dear Sirs,I have been taking " Wincarnis " for a month, and find I have greatly benefited by its use, I am much stronger and better in health now than I have been for the last three or four years. I shall recommend it whenever I can, it has done me so much good. Yours truly, A L I C E B O Y E S . Liverpool, April 30th, 1906. Dear SirSjI have much pleasure in saying I think " Wincarnis " a perfect tonic. I have derived great benefit from it, and have recommended it to my friends, who also think it invigorating. Yours faithfully, (Miss) M. C R A D D O C K . I^ondon, S.E., April 28, 1906. Dear Sirs,Two months ago I underwent an operation, after which I sadly needed nourishment, but my deUcate state of health would not permit of my taking solid food. I tried several restoratives without obtaining -much benefit, but eventually bought a bottle of " Wincarnis." Before I had finished same I felt stronger and more energetic. I cannot speak too highly of it. Yours truly, S. H . R A W L J N G S .
