tant Matter.
Curiously enough, the United States
was the last of the sigratory powers to
ratify the treaty for the suppression of the
African slave trade which was signed at
Brussels in July, 1890. The treaty was
signed by representatives OF seventeen
powers, of which the United States was
one. 1t was sent to the senate nearly q
\ year ago, and in few weeks the time
allowed for the exchange of final ratifica-
ton would have expired. The delay on
the part OF the senate in Tatieying the
treaty was caused by disinclination on
the part OF some OF the members of the
senate to recognize the justice Of parti-
ton of Africa among the nations of the
world. This feeling received expression
in one of the resolutions which was made
part of ratification, and which declared
that the United States, having neither
possessions nor protectorates in Africa,
disclaims any intention in ratifying the
treaty to indicate any interest whatso-
ever in the possessions or protectorates
established or claimed on that continent
by the other powers, or any approval of
the wisdom, expediency or lawfulness
thereof, and does not join in any express
sions ON the said general act which might
be construed as such Q declaration or
acknowledgment, and for this reason
deems 1t desirable that copy Of the res.
olution be inserted in the protocol to be
drawn up ct the time Of the exchange Of
the notifications of the treaty ON the part
OF the United States.

Little Barney's mother died when he

he soon took to catching and playing
with frogs and lizards and from that to
serpents. This his grandfather whipped
him for, bot all to no purpose. He was

Honey as Food and edirinp


From an article which appears in the
Horticultural Times We quote:
The extensive use of sugar on fruit is
not as bad as the cake mania that RACES
In so many kitchens. The fruit acids
largGiy neutralize the indlscri inmate and
injudicious use of sugar. 1t is no serious
thing to eat considerable saccharine food
in pure state, but not in the form OF
pure refined sugar.
If eaten and taken in the form of honey
1t at once becomes valuable medicine
and food. Instead of having it given us
IL this form in mixture with bulk foods,
as in the cane and beet, we have it mingI-
ed with fruit juices exuded from flowers
highly charged with medicinal properties
N the alchemy of nature and the apothe-
cary of the beehive.
The advantages of honey as a medicine
or food are too extensive to be considered
at length here.
Honey taken as food becomes POWER
ful medicine TO the sugar-fed and half
diseased, and many must begin on small
quantities and acquire an appetite for it.
Foul air, improper ventilation, coal gass,
together with the sudden change and ex-
pc sure of lungs and threats to zero wealth
