Of constipation and diarrhea. You can
strengthen the urinary system and cure all
such symptoms of weakness as bad dreams,
milky urine. etc. You can strengthen the
nervous system and rid yourself of that ex-
treme feeling of debility. You can strengthen
your mental faculties and improve your MEM
Dry. You can strengthen your muscular sys-
tenn and increase your power of endurance.
In word, you can be an example of physical
perfection if you desire, by using q scientific
combination OF Yellow Dock, Sarsaparilla.

Turks and High Schools.

wasted" said an old Turk, "ten
years'of my life in one of the high
schools. In consequence of this know
nothing. Had gone to the schools of
the Softas might have become great
teacher. A high school teaches moth
ing that people want to know. For
instance, they teach botany. They
spend weeks in explaining to a young
man that rose is rose! What earth
ly use is that to any one? If a man
knows rose when he sees it, he knows
it without having learned it in a book.
If he does not know that it is a rose, no
book will ever make him care to know
what it is. High schools never did good
to any body in this country" The
Turk was partly right. As in every
thing else, so in education, the methods
adopted by the Turks are mere apish
limitations of what is found in Europe,
and always remain unmeaning forms
OF exercise, a WEAKNESS to both teacher
and scholar. Turkish Life in Var

4 SLEEPER is one who sleeps. A sleeper Is
that in which the sleeper sleeps. \ sleeper is
that on which the sleeper which carries the
sleeper while he sleeps runs. Therefore while
the sleeper sleeps in the sleeper the sleeper
carries the sleeper over the sleeper under the
sleeper until the sleeper which carries the
sleeper jumps off the sleeper and wakes the
sleeper in the sleeper by striking the sleeper
under the sleeper, and there is no sleeper in

comes an exchange with the fol
ing intelligence with reference to the FLIP
PEE trial: "A special to the Cincinnati
Commercial from Washington, February
10, says 1t is quite probable that LIEUTEN-
ANT FLIrPER, of the 10th cavalry, although
sentenced to be dismissed from the army,
will not go out of the service. He was
not found guilty of the charge of embez-
element, but Of deceiving his superior
officer, and in view Of the failure to
prove fraud, and the fact that the govern
ment has lost nothing, the sentence will
probably be mitigated GENERAL GRIERsoN,
and other officers of his regiment, have writ
ten letters, in which they speak in high
terms of LIEUTENANT FLIrrER, and with
such Endorsement, and with no crime
proved against him, the president would
not be justified in dealing with him more
severely than others have been dealt with

PARIS, February 23.-Genoral Skobelefi
has departed for st. Petersburg.
In the chamber of deputies to-day, NJ.
Gerard, minister of commerce, introduced
bill fixing system TO be adopted in
regard to the English articles i'm.
ported into France, and, referring to nego-
tiations for treaty of commerce between
France and England said 1.-THE most
favored nation basis would not have placed
France and England on IA footing of equal
ity BY applying it England would remain
mistress OF our treaties. Despite
our friendship for England we cannot agree
to state OF things which would place us in
position of complete inieriority.n
Article of NJ, Gierard's bill provides for a
date of PRONUNCIATION of the present law;
English goods imported into France will
be treated on the most favored nation
basis.
Article declares that the above condi-
tons are to apply to colonial products
which remain subject to the con-
diton OF general customs tariff
In the chamber of deputies NJ. Defrey-
CHE, replying to an Interrogation, said that
the situation in Egypt has serious
consequences. England, perceiving this
had proposed to submit the matter
to the powers. The existence of European
agreement was alone u guarantee against
extreme consequences The French agent
in Egypt had been instructed, he added, tC
assume an attitude of extreme reserve to
ward the new government.
