THE PEAN OF PEACE.

With ever some wrong 10 be Fighting,
With self ever seeking for place,
The world has been striving and fighting
Since man was evolved out of space
Bold history into dark regions,
His torch-lignt has fearlessly cast,
he shows us tribes warning In iegions,
In the jungle of ages long passed.
Religion, forgetting her station,
Forgetting her birthright from God,
Set nation TO warning with nation
And scattered disssnsion abroad
Dear creeds have made men kill each other.
Fair fate has bred hate and despair,
And brother has battled with brother
Because of a difference In prayer.
But earth has grown wiser and kinder,
For man Is evolving soul;
From wars OF an age that was binder,
We rise to a peace, girdled goal.
Where once men would murder in treason
And slaughter each other, In hordes,
They now meet together and reason,
With thoughts for their weapons, not swords.
The brute in humanity dwindles.
And lessons as time speeds along,
And the spark of divinity kindles
And blazes up brightly and strong.
The seer can behold in the distance.
The race that shall people the world;
Strong men of 6odlike existence
Unarmed, and with war banners furled
No longer the bloodthirsty savage
Mans vast spirit strength shall unfold;
And tales OF red warfare and rayage
Shall seem like ghost stories OF old.
For the booming OF gurs ana ne rattle
OF carnage and confiisS saal cease,
And the bugle CALL leae iag - battle,
Shall change TO paeaa e Psice

Lamar. Can Re Cured.

Sister Rose Gertrude in Ladies' Home Journal.
Thomas the Apostle himself was not
more hard to convince than is the world in
general with regard to the cure OF leprosy.
And yet, in reply to the many skeptics l
meet, can only reply that have seen
the most obstinate symptoms disappear;
and have seen people declared by the
four examing physicians "Lepers," and
the same brought up for examination,
after the lapse of some months and dis
charged by the board of examiners as
"Not lepers." The treatment carried on
at the Kalihi hospital is no secret; 1t has
been fully explained in the reports OF Dr.
Lutz, its originator. may say, however,
that the most beneficial medicines used In
the treatment of leprosy are sallcyiate OF
soda and salol in high doses. There are
also a variety of external applications
suitable to the form of the disease, and the
peculiar conditions and constitution OF
each patient. This treatment, besides hav-
ing so marked an effect on the disease,
seems to improve the general health and
inyigorate the lepers themselves. They
often said they had never felt so inclined

Uses OF Hot Water.
Ladies Home Journal.

Hot water is one of the best among
simple remedies. For instance, headache
almost always yields to the simultaneous
application of hot water to the feet and
back of the neck.
A towel folded several times. and dipped
in hot water, and quickly wrung out and
applied over the toothache or neuralgia,
will generally afford prompt relief.
A strip of flannel, or napkin folded
lengthwise, and dipped in hot water and
wrung out, and then applied around the
neck of a child that has the Group viii
sometimes bring relief in ten minutes.
Hot water, taken freely half an hour be-
fore bedtime, is helpful In the case of con-
stipation, and has most soothing effect
upon the stomach.
A goblet of hot water, taken just after
arising. before breakfast, has cured thou
sands Of indigestion, and no simple remedy
is more widely recommended by physi-
clans to dyspeptics.

The Post must be = very vsrd-

the reason. The old abortion
doctors of San Francisco have
helped all classes OF people in
those unpleasant emergencies that
require prenatal child murder.
When they are arrested on the
charge OF abortion they threaten
to expose all their wealthy clients
in the event Of conviction.
The money flows In like water,

Mob Hill and everywhere, and they

One big abortion case in San
Francisco came to standstill

unpleasant intelligence that the
man he was after had rendered 4
similar service for a sister. He
dropped further investigation and
