Away with this religion of spooks
Laughter For mans honor and wom-
ans integrity let that doctrine go down
never again to rise. 1 wish 1 could gather
up all the raps it ever heard from spirits
blest or banished into one thunderous rap
of humiliation on its own pate. Again, l
indict this crime of spiritualism because it
is the mother of insanity. Go into the
insane asylums between Bangor and San
Francisco and you will find in all of them
the victims of this evil. But l have the
most fearful indictment to. bring against
spiritualism in the fact that it ruins the
soul. First, it makes man a quarter OF
an infidel, then it makes him half an in
fidel, then it makes him three-quarters of
an infidel, then it makes him whole in
fidel.

A Whole Family Burned.

ARLINGTON, Neb., May AT 6 o'clock this
morning a fire was seen on the farm of the
widow Freeze, one mile out, which was sup
posed to be the barn of her son-in-law and
family who lived with her. 4 posse of citizens
went out at s o'clock to see if all was well and
were Mortified by finding the eharred remains
of seven human beings, only identified by their
statures as follows: Old lady Freeze, Fred
Gratchuschen, his wife and three children, and
Freds brother Louis, scattered in different
parts of the barn, among the horses and COWS,
some fifteen of which were also burned. One
theory is foul play, another Is that each one of
the family aimed 10 save an animal and all
failed and wertsuffOcated. A daughter, who is
away visiting, is the only survivor of the family,
but it is reported the hired man can not be
found. 1t was a horrible and pitiful sight, the
laying out of the charred remains of the total
family which fell among twice their number OF
dumb brutes The wife was found under a
horse The coroner has been called. No feud
has existed in connection with this family and
no enemies are known.

A wild rose elanlbering Ger,
And a woman with baby
Standing In the cabin door.
In the field a man is blowing,
Aud whistling as he goes,
While the woman and the baby
Are counting all the rows.
And the forest stands around them,
The sky is spread above,
And everywhere IS written,
The mystery OF Love
IT'S hons that Love is planting,
Where strong young life shall grow.
Would had the artists power,
That simple home to show.
Iwould paint the lights and shadow
OF that young face so fair;
I'd copy all the poesy
Baby had written there.
I'd paint the wondrous symbols
That baby fingers trace
Upon the fathers cheek and brow,
The love-illumined face.
The promise ana the mystery
Unfolding baby life.
And loves divine fuliillment
In welded man and wife.
Just a cabin in q clearing
A Wild rose clambering DER,

To Tighten toll and care,
And love on swift wings mounting,
Heavenward those hearts doth bear.

COMMON SENSE

Should be used in attempting to cure
that very disa2reeable disease, catarrh.
A oatarrh originates in impurities in
the blood, local applications can do no
permanent good. Tho common-sense
method Of treatment is to purify the
blood, and for this purpose there is no
preparation superior to Hoods Sar-
saparilla. That this peculiar medicine
does cure catarrh is shown by the many
testimonials from people who have
found relief uwon using it when all
others have failed a look containing
statements Of cures sent on receipt of
two-cent stamp. By c, l. HOOD eco,

EPOCH.

The transition from long, lingering,
and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch in the life of the in
diyidual. Such remarkable event is
treasured in the memory and the agency
whereby the good health has been at
tanned is gratefully blessed. Hence it is
that so much is heard in praise of Elec-
trio Bitters. So many feel that they
owe their restoration to health, to the
use of the Great Alternative and Tonic.

LEPERS IN HAVANA,
A Stroll Through the Wards of Cuba
Leper Hospital.

stroll Through the Wards of Cuba's
Leper Hospital.
There is leper hospital in Havana,
and one day DIR. Burgess took me
through its wards. 1t is devoted ex-
clusively to the care of lepers, no other
class of patients being admitted. The
sights that met my eyes were far more
interesting than pleasant. Persons who
have read ben Hurn do not need a
description of the ravages of this hor-
rible disease, and nobody wants it.
One fact which | learned during my
visit may be a surprise to many; it was
that never since the foundation of the
hospital, and during its occupancy.
has there been known an instance in
which the malady has been propagated
by contagion. Nevertheless, observed
that when DR.. Burgess gave a trihe
OF money to some of those who
were more severely afflicted than
with them. There were about forty
inmates, male and female, the majority
being males. Among them were per-
sons Of all nationalities represented in
the island, many of them being Chinese.
These poor creatures do not enter the
hospital for the purpose or with the
expectation of being cured, there being
no successful method CT treatment
known. They go there only for the
purpose OF being cared for until they
die.
Subsequently, during my stay | saw
in Havana and other parts of Cuba as
many as dozen other lepers in whom
the disease was in various stages of
progress. Some of these were engaged
in selling matches, articles of food, or
lottery tickets, while others were down.
