TAKE TREATMENT NOW!

Time and again the physicians of
the Scott Medical Institute have adj
vised patients in desperate stages of
catarrhal trouble to wait until sum-
mer before taking treatment. Time
and again they have urged the neces-
sitv of taking treatment while the
weather was favorable to n cure.
Now is that time. Those who suf-
fer from catarrh should take advan-
tare of all the influences that operate
now in favor of n cure. They should
not put off treatment until next Win
tiers stormy days. but should Pru-
IDENTIFY mend their roof while the
sun shines" Now is the time. and
the opportunity is just what is de-
sired for the worst cases. Do not let
it 90 by, but place yourself under
treatment of the Scott Medical lnsti-
tutc. and have done for you in the
next month or two what might not
be possible to do until next summer.

If so, you are an easy victim for

The President Is Not Bank Robber, But
Simply Enforced Court Order.
New YORK, March 21.-Tbe story
from San Domingo to the effect that
the president of San Domingo had
broken into the safe Of the French
bank is not generally credited here.
f. l.. Vasquez of san Domingo, con-
sui general, explains that an interna-
tional misunderstanding occurred be-
tween his government and France
over the settlement of supreme court
decision in favor of the president In
his personal capacity, who sold the
French bank in San Domingo City for
$4,000. The bank officials declined
to obey the orders of the supreme
court and upon ito threat to
enforce the decree appealed to the
French consul who called for the sup
port OF man-of-war then in port.
Vasquez also gave information of the
incipient revolution inaugurated by
the Dominians on the Hoytians near
Monte Christie. These defeated 400
government troops in one battle. Re-
Inducements were sent to the spot by
President Henreaux, who also pre-
pared to follow when he received
word that the revolutionists had been
driven over the bordef. These prepar.
ations, the consul thought, may give
rise to rumors of flight on the part of
President Henreaux.

Our Father, Thou hast entrusted US

their pressure, and to respond with all
our strength to their demands. May
we labor as those who esteem duty
and honor above the applause of men
and W no love truth because it Is the
speech of God; sanctify to our personal
good, not only our experience in this
place, but all the manifold discipline
of life. Give to us such control of all
events and circumstances, that out of
the very chaos of things there may
come forth Thine own woDdrOGs order
and beauty. And to Thy name be all
the praise now and always. Amen.

sunshine, in addition to a vegetable diet,
are the best medicines. She has prac-
ticed faith healing from early girlhood
and is credited with some remarkable
cures One of her notions is that the
elixir of life will soon be discovered.
For the past two years Lady Paget has
been what she herself calls "a full blown
vegetarian" though she does not go to
the extreme of excluding eggs, butter
and milk from her diet and admits that
at dinner party she is sometimes forced
to take very small piece of fish or a
scrap of an entree, ssjust to avoid being
too peculiar"
Lady Paget alleges that she was led to
adopt vegetarianism because of the re-
voting disclosures of some papers she
read about the transportation of cattle
and slaughter houses, but says she was
also moved by the feeling that she had
no right to indulge in food that necessi-
tated any one following "a brutalizing
and degrading occupation like that of a
butcher" Vegetarians, she admits, may
be faddists and eccentrics, but ''they are
invariably high minded, well disposed
people, and l believe that the practice of
vegetarianism will play an important
part in refining the masses and render
ing them less coarse and brutal"
One of the corollaries of vegetable
diet, Lady Paget says, is the ability to
bear fatigue. .'Since have abstained
from flesh I can climb hills with great
easy and never get out of breath" An
other is that ''vegetarians have in
variably bright, clear compilations" and
still another that sit is convenient when
travelling to be able to make meal
off piece of bread and an apple" It
will not be long, she thinks, until we
come to exclude meat altogether from
orr diet.

A melancholy interest attaches to this
son from the unfortunate outcome OF a
love affair. He was for several years en-
gagged to daughter of General Waldo.
He had erected a fine house for her, and
the day was set for the wedding, when,
for some unknown reason, he wrote her
asking to defer the wedding until another
day. This occasioned a GOODNESS, which
resulted in her breaking off the engage
ment and hastily marrying Thomas
Fluker, the Provincial Secretary. 1t was
a daughter of this marriage who became
the wife of General Knox.
Sir William Pepperell survived his son
eight years, and died greatly lamented
by all July 6, 1859, leaving an immense
property, principally in land, but no
one to perpetuate his NAME

bitless bride, automatic horse cover,
electric wire cutter, tin roof cutter, Gel

His team gave daily exhibitions in
London, and the cockneys said it was
better than circus. Tt was a circus of
its kind, for two of his men were old
tumblers, and when occasionally they
rushed up ladder, turned couple of
somersaults in midair, lighting on their
feet ON the ground and then grabbed a
nozzle, turned a handspring and tore off
up the ladder again, the Britons thought
it part of their regular drill.
Only one London fire company had
the nerve to tackle Chief Hale's team in
a speed contest to see which company
could get out of bed and be ready for a
fire quicker. 1t took the Londoners a
minute and II seconds, while the Amer
leans were in the street in just 81 Sec
onds. The latter had the advantages of
brass sliding poles, swinging harness
and trained horses, however, all of which
were unknown things in London, though
they will probably be adopted there and
in other big cities in England and on the
continent, along with the water towers
and other inventions of Chief Hale.
The chief is q native of Cotton, N. Y.
and about "A years of age. He was a
machinist and engineer and was ap-
pointed chief of the Kansas City depart
ment in 1879. He is small, snug and
wiry, quick and alert, and has just a
sprinkle of gray in his Jet black hair.

Mayor Carter Harrison has been q
widower for a good many years, and
some of the good people Of his bailiwick
seem to have supposed that he was bound
to remain a widower, for the recent an
nouncement Of his approaching mar
riage to Miss Annie Howard OF New Or
leans, schoolgirl friend of his daughter
inslaw, created quite ripple OF sur
prise. Carter appeared to enjoy the
mystifcation of the general public on
the subject, and his utterances seemed
to indicate that while he did not wish
the matter unduly advertised he had no
desire to conceal the facts.

The imperative need of the protection
afforded by Life Insurance is made man
fest every day. Of late, the grim spec
tre Death has stalked abroad in it's most
hideous forms: accidents of the most ter
rible character-some resulting from. nat
ural forces, others from the carelessness
of man-have been recorded day by day.
Immunity has been accorded to none;
neither age, youth nor status has claimed
exemption-the old and the young, the
rich and the poor, have alike fallen be-
fore the scythe of Deaths ayenging
angel. 1t is this uncertainty of life-the
converse of deaths certainty-tha caus-
es those who reflect to avail themselves
of the benefcence of Life Insurance.
When death in it's terrible swiftness en-
tiers household, the pangs of the suffer-
ing bereaved are sufficiently acute with
out being added to by any prospective
view Of penury and want.
Life Insurance is duty; one of the
most sacred attaching to any bread-win-
ner, and terrible responsibility rests
upon the shoulders of those who are in
any way neglectful in this connection.
