Ii Hung Chang governor of the
southern provinces OF China, Is
Just now the man of the hour. He
represents the policy of the war
and speaks for the party which is
now dominant at Pekin and whose
counsels are prevailing at the
Summer Palace, and he tells our
correspondent that war is unavoid-
able. Chang Shu Sing does not
believe the regulars have crossed
the frontier of Tonquin, but he
thinks perhaps few stragglers
have been attracted by the re-
nown of the leader of the black
flag. His own men still wait for
orders to march. The marauders,
of course, are all for war, and any
body who should propose to settle
the matter peacefully, would run
the risk of having his head cut off.
This is an old story. China is
perpetually showing fight. Some
times, as at Kuldja, she gets what
she wants by bluster; sometimes
she has put troops into the field,
and they soon got the worst of it.
France can afford to let China put
on martial airs and do a good deal
of clustering; and then, if the lat
ter provokes her to fight, she can
go into it with light heart and
easy conscience, and satisfy the
world she was not the aggressor

To Cure CONS.

4 "corn" consists of a small
mass OF the outer layer OF the skin
much thickened. 1t is produced by
occasional pressure from tight or
ill-ftting boots. \ corn may be
hard, dry and scaly, or soft and
spongy, as when it forms between
the toes. 1t may become iniiamed,
and even have matter formed be-
meath it, when the pain IS intense.
The early treatment is simply to
remove the cause and the corn
will disappear. Get well fitting
boots, for boots too loose ara Is
bad as boots too tight. Their mp.
pers should be broad. To eradi-
cate a corn, the best way IS u soak
it in warm water, and for two oF
three nights to keep over it a wa
ter dressing covered with oiled
silk. This softens the cuticle, and
the corn can be peeled with a
knife, great care being taken that
the knife does not go too deep and
inflict an unnecessary wound. After
the removal OF the corn, apply
soap plaster spread on leather.
Glacial acetic acid may be applied
and will hasten the removal OF a
corn. But on no account should
lunar caustic be used. 1t Is dan
gerous' especially foT the aged.
Soft corns are best treated by
placing cotton wool or tissue pa
per between the toes where the
corn occurs. This relieves the
pressure. The corn had better be
busted with powdered starch OF
with oxide of zinc. When it Is
thus converted into a dry corn il
can be eradicated. Corn. plaster:
are much appreciated by some
people, and are well calculated tt
shield the corn from pressure dur.
ing exercise, pending more radica
treatment. The great point is t.
wear boots which fit easily anC
well, to wash the feet regularly il
tepid water, and to often chang,
the stockings.-FdmiIy Doctor,

THOSE WOMEN FOLK.
How Hard Headed Men Estimate
some Things which They
Don't Understand.

Anybody who has led domestic life knows
how common such things as the back
ache, and pains in the chest. are among
the women who do the work. Often-and
perhaps generally-the distresses are borne
without much complaint. The women get
about, and the machinery Of the house goes
on. Beyond this, those coarse-gTained ami
mails whom New England women call 'the
men folks" seldom look. So long as their
wives OF daughters are not actually in bed.
under the doctors care, the average thick
skinned husband and father gives the subject
no attention, At the same time, the poor
household drudges-who deserve a better fate
creep around. broom or utensils in hand,
up stairs down stairs and out-of- doors, doing
that Homan's work. which Is never done"
Losses Of loved wives and fair girls-losses
whose suddenness and unexpeetedness aston
ish those wooden-pated husbands and faith
ers-fall, seemingly out Of a clear sky, and
form the logical sequel to the story Of neglect.
Now. you men who stand at the heads Of
ten thousand such homes, allow us to drop a
word in your receptive years. Ifthese wOm-
en- Of yours are worth having. they are worth
saving. That backache-that PAIN in tie
chest! What are they but indications Of some
organic trouble Of the kidneys, the heart, OF
the lungs? End it at once by the application
Of BENSON'S CAPCINE POROUS PLAS-
TER. 1t will sOOthe that nervous distress,
drive away that pain, Danish that dull, weary
baekache, give new strength TO the body and
fresh hope to the heart. No other plasters
will do this. The Benson's Plaster, however
is not made to sell-but to heal. 1t is 4 rem
eiy which never yet broke its promise-and
never viii. Your druggist has it. But before
paying your 25 cents and putting tho plaster
in your pocket, look for the word CAPCINE
