Old age--the picture that springs to every
ones minds an aggregation of infrm-
tiles.
Men and women are growing old before
their time.
The work and worry of to-day plunges us
into an old age early; many die of old age at
so instead of 20, and the causes that occasion
this premature old age bring exaggerated
dotage, melancholy and often insanity
While old age is thus associated with
rheumatism, govt, and various morbid con-
ditions, it is nevertheless possible to have
an old age free from them, and, as Sir James
Brown says in the British Medical Journal,
"to run the course to the century goal with
out being complicated by any of the senile
infirmites enumerated"
These infrmities, regarded as maladies OF
old age, are not essential to it, but due to
overweight nervous systems and blood
that fails to nourish the nerve centers.

DOMESTIC IN BRIEF.

REV. DR.. f. p. TIMING of Brooklyn, N.
Y, the well-known Congregational mission
airy, died recently at Canton, China.
Mrs. PHILLIP KERcHNER, an insane
woman Of Parkersburg, w. Va, murdered
four of her children last week, and then
threw herself into a well containing eight
feet of water.
THE towns of Virginia and Mountain Iron,
in Minnesota, have been swept by forest
fires. In Virginia there are 1000 homeless
people without food or shelter. The loss
by fire is nearly $l,000,000
A FAST freight was derailed at Carbon
Hill, Ala, last week by train wreckers,
who spiked crOss-ties on the track. The
engineer was killed, and the fireman and

hounds were put on the track of the wreck

A DEFALCATIoN of over $4,000 in the
Order of the Unity has just been discovered
at the headquarters in Boston. Charles A.
Kimpton, supreme treasurer of the order,
through whose hands all the money passed,
has been missing from his residence in
Somerville for nearly fortnight, and can
not be found.
j. w. FLOOD, formerly cashier Of the
Donohoe-Kelly Banking Company OF San
Francisco, has recently been convicted of
embezzling $164 600 from that institution.
The defense introduced no testimony during
the trial and made no attempt to show at
what time Flood had taken the money or
what disposition he had made of it. Flood
had never made an admission to any one in
this respect, and the only explanation he
would ever give was that he had paid the
money over the counter OF the bank in the
regular course of business.

digestion, cheerfuness, and the workings
of asound body may follow
That melancholy and mental depression
felt by so many men and women, showing
only their first gray hairs, is lamentably
common complaint. Paine's celery COM
pound has cured hosts of such cases. Has
ignorance of the virtues of this wonderful
preparation been allowed to stand between
you and health?
Physicians recommend it, and the testi-
monials of some of the best men in the medi-
cal profession may be summed up in the
words of DIR. f. A. Smith of Brandon, VT,
one of the best known physicians in YER
mont, whose portrait is printed above, who
says /" prescribe Paines celery compound
because l know its great worth"
The names have been published in these
columns within the last month of some of the
best authorities among the practitioners of
the country, who recommend the use OF
Paine's celery compound in the highest
terms. 1t is better than all the patent medi-
cines and ordinary tonics in the world. 1t
makes people well, and cures where all else
fails. Try it, and you'll soon be con-
WINGED of its worth.

Cruel Treatment by the Military and Police
THE riots in Germany have been violent
driving the strikers and their families from
houses which the men have rented from the
colliery owners. Although in most cases
the rents have been paid up to date, and in
many even for a month to come, the author
cate the houses within forty-eight hours
Those who took refuge with neghbors in
houses owned by the companies were driven
out in the fields, where they and their fam
lilies were compelled to sleep without COW

troops were pursued by hussars. Some were
ridden down, others were slashed with

Vigorously Denounce the Speech of Count
Kolnoky,
MUCH irritation and evaporation has been
caused in Germany by the speech Of Count
Kolnoky, the Austro- Hungarian minister
OF foreign affairs at Berlin, in which he took
an optimistic view of the prospects of peace
and spoke with much emphasis on the i'm
provement of the relations between Austria
and Russia. The National Zeitung does not
conceal its annoyance at the character of
Count Kolnoky's utterances, and hints that
the military question would be much sim
plified if Germany could take the Austro-
Hungarian premier at his word and leave
him to complete the relations with Russia
of which he speaks, thereby enabling Ger
many to discard the contingency of having
to carry ON war on two fronts.

SALISBURY OPPOSES HOME RUIZ

And Attempts to Excite London Against
the Measure.
AT a meeting of unionists held last week
in the Royal Surrey theater, London, the
Marquis of Salisbury spoke forcibly against
the home-rule bill. He illustrated his opin-
ion of Mr.. Gladstone's action toward Ire
land with an elaborate metaphor based on
the account of the recent disaster in Wash
ington. The premier, he said, was digging
a cellar under the ancient fabric of the EN-
pire. He was working carelessly, as did
the men under the old theater in Washing
ton. If he should be allowed to continue
his task, all three floors of the imperial
building-throne, church and parliament
would come crashing down around the
heads Of the destructive liberal party.
