A Claim to Human Gratitude.

Charlotte Cerday, the sad faced, ten
del hearted peasant girl Of Normandy
made great history by one desperate act,
Sickened by the saturnalia of the
French revolution, aud moved to desper.
alton as Robespierre and Matat were
leading the nbwer of France 10 the
%guillotine, she determined that she would
put an end to Marat's bloody reign,
Marat had demanded two hundred
thousand victims for the guillotine.
He proposed to kill off the enemies of
the revolution to make it perpetual
Horrible thongh't
20 wonder it fired the blood of this
patriotic peasant maid

In the Corcoran gallery at Washington
is a famous painting of Charlotte, repre-
sentcd as behind the prison bars the day
before her execution.
It IL thrilling, Sad plclute, fun of sor-
row fot her suffering country and of un,
~co.nquerable hate for her country's enc
mics.
What q lesson in this tragic story. Two
hundred, nay, 900, GOO people would
Maret have sacrificed to his toholi pas
sion of powes.
Hcthods ire quite as murderous and in
exorablc as men and they number their
victims by the millions.
The page of history is full of murders
by authority and by mistaken ideas. Il
s.le practice of medicine alone how many
hundreds of millions have been allowed
to die aud as many more killed by unjust
itiable bigotry and by bungiingl
But the age is hettprina. Men and
methods arc ~imnrotins. 4 few years

tions kept Il ancestors in perfect health
put forth for the good of humanity by
one who is known all over the world as

highest STANDARD OF excellence.
The preparations are Of decided ant
known influence over disease, and as il

up the wounds of death, SO in Their new
form but o!den power as log Cabin rem
