“The policy of the Reform Government,” says the Prime Minister, “is to get the country back to prosperity by reducing expenditure and taxation and by increasing production; by seeing that the producers get a square deal, that employment is stimulated, and that the burdens of the people are made lighter as quickly as possible.” Said never to have had a day's illness in his life, Charles Anderson, 51, of Pembury, near Tunbridge Wells, died suddenly in bed. At the inquest a doctor said he found in the body : —Signs of old pleurisy, heart as big as a bullock’s, liver bigger than any lie had ever seen before, and a large and congested bladder. The kidneys were also abnormally large and were also diseased. The frame that encloses “The Virgin and Child” at the Milan Cathedral is said to be the finest the world possesses. Some idea of its value may be obtained when it is Mated that the frame is eight feet long and six feet wide, formed of hammered gold, with an inner moulding of lapisdazuli. At the corners are hearts designed in large pearls and precious .stones. This picture frame is probably worth upwards of £520,000.
