Beware of ScrutuLn

scrofula is probably more general than any
other disease. 1t Is insldious in character,
and manlfests itself in running sores, pustuAar
eruptlons, boils, swelllngs, enlarged joints,
assesses, sore eyes, etc. Hoods Sarsaparilla
expels all trace Of scrofula from the blood,
leaving 1t pure, enriched, and healthy.

TWO OF A KIND,

The report of the United States consul at Canton, China, relative to the persecution of Christians in that district is interesting. The prosecutions of which report is made consist of robbery, destruction of chapels, beating, blackmailing and boycotting of native Chris tians, often with the encouragement of local authorities, and the refusal of the authori- ties to punish the offenders, protect the Christians or take measures to secure restitu- tion.
 This is in heathen China. In the Chris tian United States of America there have re gently been some performances that would be very bitterly denounced if they had taken place in China. Some Chinese miners in Wyoming territory were set upon and killed. At Seattle, in Washington territory, the white miners served notice upon the China men at work there that they must leave the place within twenty four hours. The China men having obeyed, their property was promptly seized by the whites, and pillaged other similar occurrences are more than half defended by some of the western papers, and yet this is not heathen country 1.-The treaties with the United States, as well as with Great Britain and other European powers, guarantee to converts to Christianity in China protection from persecution and un- disturbed freedom of religious opinions and practice, and, therefore, the protection of our government is invoked for these con verts. It will be interesting to see what is done. Perhaps before this country makes a demand upon the Chinese government for the protection of Chinese Christians it would be well for it to attend thoroughly to the persecution of the Chinese heatlen which has occurred here. At least fifty Chinamen were massacred in Wyoming last summer, and many others were driven into the noun tains, where some perished from hunger and exposure Those who did this have not yet been punished, and no effort has been made to punish them. The stolen property has not been restored, nor any compensation gwen for losses and sufferings. Under these circumstances the Chinese minister of for eign affairs would doubtless be pleased to re- ceive demand from the United States for the better protection of Chinese Christians. Such demand would make even heather smile.

merchant navies of the world which has just been published in France shows that Great Britain possesses 22, 800 trading vessels, with an aggregate tonnage of 100000 tons. Of these vessels 4,649 are steamers, with 8 tonnage of 5,919,O0 tons, or rather more than half the grand total of burden. The United States makes very bad second, with 6,6OO sail and 2,70O, GOO tons. Norway has 1, 200 vessels, with 1,5O0,000 tons, and Germany, which comes immediately after her, has 5000 sail, with a total of 1 400, 900 tons; France, Italy and Russia bring up the rear, each with less than 5000 vessels. greater importance than the total number of ships engaged in trade, and in this regard France..stands second, altough she has but 459 steamers, of 667, 900 tons in all, to Great Britain's 1, 4,649 Germany presses her close Iy with 420 steamers and 475, 900 tons.
 A novel suit against telegraph company has just been disposed of by the Texas court of appeals. A sheep raiser went to the office of the company to send a message to his ranch. The operator handed him blank, whereupou the Texan, remark ing that he knew "nothing of the business" and had never written "a message in his life, D asked the operator to write it. He dictated this-''Meet me with two horses and Shep." ''Shep." was the name of his dog. The ope- rator wrote: 'Meet me with two horses and sheepn He showed it to the sender, who pronounced it satisfactory. When the Tex an reached the specified place he was met, much to his surprise, by his men with a drove of twenty-five hundred sheep. The sheep had been driven a long distance through the wintry weather. Many of them had died and others had suffered seriously from exposure. The owner sued the compa- ny for damages and won his case in the lower courts. The court of appeals holds that the company is not liable for the consequences of the error in the despatch. It says that in writing the message at the request of the sender the operator acted as the agent of the sender and not of the company.
