incompleteness. as compared to his prede-

Government is ignorant Of the fact that
Minister Sargent has expressed himself to

offensive to Germans in America.

AN INTERESTING EXTRACT.-From a
monograph published by the late eminent
surgeon Samuel d. Gross, is made the fol-
lowing extract, which, in view of the crema-
ton of his remains, will bo read with mark
ed interest at this time:
"If people could see the human body after
the process Of decomposition sets Ill, winch
is as soon az the vital spark ceases to exist,
they would not want TO be buried: they
would be in favor Of cremation. BurylnS
the human body, ! think is u horrible thing.
If more was known about the human frame
while undergoing decomposition people
wouId turn with horror from the custom of
burving their dead. 1t sometimes takes
human body fifty, sixty, eighty years-yes,
LONGER than that--to decay. Think OF 1t
The remains of friend lying under six feet
of ground, or less, for that length OF time
Going through slow stages of decay, and other
bodies all this time being buried around the
remains. Think of thousands ofsuch bodies
beinr crowded; into few acres OF ground
and then reflect that these graves, or many
of Them, in time fill with water, and that
vofcr percolates through the ground arc
mives with the springs and wells and river
from which we drink Why, ifpeopie knew
what physicians know, what ,he$ navs

Beecher's Bad Head.

For two months in the year Beecher
can't preach. In August and September
he takes his vacation and endures the
onset of Hay Fever. And it is, so he says,
something terrible and Tremendous. A
man with Hay Fever isn't accountable for
his actions. He is merely wild beast
frantic with snuffing sneezing and head
ache. His eyes are red so is he nose.
Every nerve in his skull thrills with dis
tress and his head is fountain of tears
He lives only to fly from seaside to noun
tain-top in search of relief. And yet,
whether we call this form of Catarrh
Hay Fever, Rose Fever, Hay Cold or
Rose Cold, Ely's Cream Balm will cure 1t.
This remedy is simple, pleasant and easy
of application. Placed in the nostrils it
penetrates and soothes the affected parts
at once, restores the impaired senses and
healthy secretions in cases of the longest
standing. You cannot run away from
Hay Fever, but you can drive it from you
by using Ely's Cream Balm.
