mouth disease. He perhaps calls it by
its right name. He calls it dry gan

"There is some slight suspicion that
the man who pressed the passage of.the

They are designed to scare the Chicago
stockyards men, who command great
influence. l know that similar dis
eases, that is, diseases that presented
the same symptoms described, have
occurred before in Kansas. l do not
know whether it was in 1870 or 1871.
They occur after every hard winter in
these districts, where cattle are shame
fully neglected; where they have to
huddle around straw stack and wade
up to their knees in old manure. l
lived in Kansas six years, and in those
years about forty per cent died. If this
were foot and mouth disease, it would
not respect any class of cattle, but this
disease seems to be confined to stock
cattle; in other words, to cattle that
have been poorly treated. All these
cattle have a good appetite; they eat
well. Cattle that suffer from foot and
mouth disease cannot eat, because they
have too much pain in their mouth.
We have never had foot and mouth
disease here. If we were to get 1t the
probability would be that there would
be but one center of infection, and
from that center it would rapidly
spread.

American BOYS.

Lecture of Dr. John q all, of New York.
In like manner the circumstances
which are about us, our manner OF
living, the times in which we live and
our surroundings generally will 60 a
good way toward accounting for the
kind of dreams by daylight in which
we indulge. Young people are apt to
dream that life will be happy for them,
that the earth will be beautiful and that
fortune will be favorable to them. |
do not object for a moment to the
dreaming of young people. 1t often
gives them ambition that is good to
have and leads them to wish to be
something in life. Do not stop with
mere dreaming. Let your day dreams
be motives and hopes to impel you to
action. Keep moving in the direction
of your dreams by daylight and they
will be realized as much as it is good
for you and those around you to have
them realized.
In repairing and decorating my
church and the Brick church the skilled
workmen who earned 81 and SIS day,
were all foreigners who could scarcely
speak word of English. Why do not
young Americans become skilled work
men and earn a good living rather than
struggle along on $40 or $12 week as
so many do in stores? 1t is because
they have the stupid notion that mere
handicraft is beneath them as degrad-
ing Don't let it come into your
minds for an instant that honest toll is
degrading.
There are some dreams by daylight
that all of us as American citizens in
dulge in. People find fault with politi-
clans and call them hard names, and
think that by abusing them their little
faults will be corrected. But politicians
are not apt to reform themselves. You
who do the voting must look about you
and get good men for the nominations
and put only good men in the offices,
and make them feel if they would keep
their places they must do right. Poll
ticians will be very much what you
want them to be. If you want them to
be of the highest type you must be of
the highest type yourselves. Many
good people throughout the land in
dulge in the day dream of prohibition

strong the laws are they will be carried
into effect only so far as the deep, prac-
tical conviction of the masses of the
people carry them into effect. There
is wish expressed in many places that
the newspapers should be purer and
better. If people want sugar there
will be sugar stores. If they want
baked beans there will be baked bean
or silk stores. If people want to know
every real or imaginary thing about
fashionable people, or about criminals,
the newspapers will give them what
they want, nothing more nor less. They
will follow the principle of supply and
demand. We must raise the taste of
the people and get them to long for
better and higher things if we would
improve the newspapers.

Two young ladies committed suicide
in Council Bluffs, Iowa, on the 18th: Miss
Ivey Steward, bright young girl about II
years old, took poison and died shortly
after. She left note saying the cause Of
the act was the cruelty Of her step-father,
who, she alleges, the day previous had
given her severe whipping. The name of
poison q few moments before she entered.
She gave as the cause, desertion by her
lover. These two cases. and Lulu Masters,
who was buried on the 18th, makes three

Discomfort


Two boats rocked on the river,
In the shadow of leaf and tree;
One was in love with the harbor;
One was In love with the sea.
The one that loved the harbor
The winds Of fate outbore,
But held the other, longing,
Forever against the shore.
The one that rests on the river,
In the shadow of leaf and tree,
With wistful eyes looks ever
To the one far out at sea.
The one that rides the billow,
Though sailing fair and fleet,
Looks back to the peaceful river,
To the harbors safe and sweet.
One frets against the quiet
OF the moss-grown shaded shore;
One signs that it may enter
That harbor nevermore.
One wearies of the dangers
or the tempest's rage and wall;
One dreams, amid the lilies,
OF far-off snowy sail.
or all that life can teach us
There's naught SO true as this:
The winds of fate blow ever,
But ever blow amiss.

Exploration of New Guinea.

s'In connection with the
Waltham Watch Company, it may be
stated that when the proprietors of The
Age desired to present Mr.. G. E. Nor
rison (the explorer of New Guinea)
with reliable chronometer, acting upon
the advice of Mr.. r. L. j. Ellery, the
government astronomer, two Waltham
watches were, however, procured for
Mr.. Morrison instead. These were kept
at the Melbourne Observatory for a
fortnight, and thoroughly and carefully
tested, and were pronounced by Mr..
Ellery, at the end of that time, to be
better suited for Mr.. Morrison's require-
ments than any thermometer. Extract

The Cattle Foot and Mouth Disease.

Inter-ocean.
The reports that the dreaded foot
and mouth disease had infected cattle
in Efingham county, in the southeast
ern center of Illinois, have caused
much CONSERVATION among stockmen.
Concerning the reports a prominent
veterinarian of this state, gentleman
we'll versed in the cattle business, said
yesterday:
"Those cases reported to exist in IL
linois, I am morally convinced, are not
foot and mouth disease, for the follow
ing reasons: Effingham county has no
imported cattle; they do not import
any there. Foot and mouth disease
has no spontaneous origin on American
soil. 1t can occur only if imported
with forei cattle. The statement of
MIR. J. II. Sanders that two Scotchmen
came over and carried it in their
clothes is mighty thin. In bingham
county cattle, as a rule, are poorly
taken care of. There are plenty of
stables and barnyards where the ma
nure is very old and caustic, and this
caustic manure and the frost we had in
January would be aptsto produce just
SUCH luOlU lo ShduSOS do hdtO OCOh lC-
ported. Besides that the morbid
changes, as reported, are not such as
are characteristic of the foot and mouth
disease. All the characteristics found
in that disease in the mouth are want
ing, and the only thing that is serious
is sloughing of the feet, and even that
is not characteristic of the foot and
mouth disease. The sores ON the mouth
reported in few cases may have come
from licking the sores of the feet. Gan
creme is corrosive, and would produce
such mouth sores.
GAS to the cases in Kansas, have
also my doubts whether it is the foot
and mouth disease. have not seen it.
But foot and mouth disease always
spreads from center to circumference.
The alleged cases in Kansas have oc-
Cured at isolated spots. Then it is
stated that in large herds only
four, six or eight animals are af-
fected where the disease has been
noticed since January. That could
not be if it were the foot and mouth
disease. One of the papers contained
a report of Governor Robinson. He is
an experienced cattle man and thor
oughly reliable. If he is correctly re-
ported then it would not be foot and
