A SPLENDID BODY

Is rarity, and the reason that few
men or women reach this standard, is
that they neglect themselves and fall
into decline. Some simple trouble of
the blood, lungs, nerves, liver, stomach
kidneys, or genital organs developes
into a chronic character. The effect is
soon observable in the appearance and
feelings of the lovliest women or the
handsomest man. sit is never too late
too mend" however, if Sandaline is
used. The dyspeptic is cured of all
trouble. The nervous sufferer is sooth-

kidney affections, or blood disorders
is thoroughly restored. All those who

TIE FUTURE OF AFRICA.

Speaking at banquet given in COM
melporation of the abolition of slavery,
N. Victor Hugo said Tin the nine
teenth century the white man has
made the negro "a man, and in the
twentieth century Europe will make
Africa world" 1t was on the latter
theme that the great writer chiefly en-
larged. He treated the subject from a
poetical rather than from a political
point Of view. The day had come for
the vast continent which alone among
the five parts of the world had no his
tory to be reformed by Europeans.
The Mediterranean was lake Of civil
lization, and it was the duty of Greece
and Italy, of France and Spain, the
four countries that occupied its north
ern shores, toTecollect that d vast terri
tory lay unredeemed on the opposite
coast. England was also worthy to
take part in the great work. She, like
France, was one of the great free ma
tons of the globe, and, like France; she
had begun the colonization and civili-
cation of Africa. The latter held the
North and East, the former the South
and the West. America has joined in
the task, and Italy was ready to do So.
This showed the unity of spirit which
pervaded the peoples Of the world.

NJ. Victor Hugo then described the
magnificent scenery, the fertility, and
the navigable rivers of Central Africa,
in eloquent language, and concluded
by exhorting the European nations to
occupy this land offered TO them by
God, to build towns, TO make roads, to
cultivate the earth, to introduce trade
and commerce, to preach peace and
concord, so that the new continent
should not be the scene of strife, but
free from princes and priests, should
enjoy the blessings of fraternity.

PUBLIC OPINION.


To the Editor Of the Horald:-In re-
cent issue Of your paper there was a
brief article on the question of physi-
cal pain in the act of dying. / hold
that the conclusion there reached, lie.
that such pains can not be thought to
be present at the last scene, is mat
ter of logical inference as well. | am
not speaking of disease and the suffer
ing which that may bring, but of the
simple physical act of dissolution,
Life is a necessary condition to pain.
Pain implies life just as much as sight
and hearing do. But death, when that
comes, is the cessation of life, and, as
such, it cannot bring pain which it
invoices a.life-poYer to endure.

A MISUNDERSTANDING BETWEEN
ENGLAND AND FRANCE.

A serious misunderstanding between
England and France has grown out of
complications arising out of two sepa-
rate phases Of the interminable Eastern
question. A widespread feeling of dis
satisfaction with the course of England
in relation to the Greek frontier and
the Egyptian situation has been devel-
oped in France which recently found
expression in strong article in the
Repu5ligae FRANCHISE, the organ of NJ.
Gambetta. The ice of reserve in regard
to display of feeling which might be
important in its consequences, having
been once broken, the sentiments of NJ
Gambetta's newspaper were echoed
with a surprising unanimity by other
journals of influence. The DeJats
agrees with the RepaJlique Fraacaise as
to the prevalence of feeling of mis-
trust in England, and dwells on Eng
land irritating and scornful Austen
ton as to Greece, her refusal to remove
difficulties in Syria, and the notorious
activity of her consul in the intrigue
which overturned the Egyptian Cabinet.
The English press were at first disposed
rather to make light of the affair, and
to pooh-pooh the alleged dissatisfac-
ton with their conduct as the mere
creation of the French press. But the
position occupied by the newspaper in
France is very different to that held by
the leading journals of either England
or America. Being largely owned or
controlled by prominent politicians, as
in the case of the RepubN4ue Frapcaise,
it speaks with more authority, and its
utterances are significant of the actual
opinions and intentions of those in
power. 1t does not create public opin-
ion so much as it voices official opinion.
Hence when NJ. Gambetta's organ for
mulates strong declaration against
England's action, or want of action,
its words must be taken as expressing
the sentiments of the Cabinet in which
his influence is so powerful. There is
no British newspaper which occupies
anything like a similar position. The
4 manifestation, therefore. is calculated
to give rise to not little uneasiness,
as its importa nee is recognized in Eng
land, and may seriously affect the har-
mony of the relations of the two coun-
tries. The principal cause of the dis
satisfaction seems to be the pro- Turk
ish sympathies of the English Cabinet,
as manifested in the settlement of the
Greco-Turkish frontier. France being
favorably disposed towards the claims
Of Greece. The French, moreover, ia

to that country are political, prefers to

tual antagonism to the other powers

A STORY FROM New ORLEANs.-New
Orleans is one of the exceptional places
in this country where the hotel guests
do not get their boots blacked. A good
story is told of an Englishmam who
stopped at the st. Charles lately. The
darlley in attendance knew he was
English, and, in anticipation of liberal
fees, took his boots as they We're placed
outside his door at night, and returned
them in the morning well BACKED.
This lasted for day or two, but the
Englishman showed no disposition to
fee the darkey, One morning the Eng
lishman discovered his boots as usual,
but not BACKED he rung his bell,
when the servant appeared. "Why
didn't you black my boots?" "Sah
you said nothing about it," ''What did
you suppose l put them out for %
"Well, supposed, sab, they was fen

took the hint.

COMPLETION OF A GREAT WORK


The completion of the new ACME
edition of CHAMBERS CYCLoPEDIA OF
ENGLISH LITERATURE will mark an
epoch in the experience of many lovers
of good books. The announcement
that they would publish a work of such
superior excellence, in q form so con.
venient and so entirely becoming to
one of such high merit, at price only
nominal when compared with that of
similar books generally, was more than
a surprise to reading people. 1t was
generally supposed to be an undertake
ing impossible of accomplishment, ex
cept at great loss of money. and many
who knew the excellent standing of the

taken too much, and would never be
able to complete the work. But it
seems they knew their ground; they
have not only fulfilled their promise to
tbe public, but by undertaking and
accomplishing something so extraordi-
nary, have attracted the attention of
almost the entire reading community,
