Some years ago the state department
at Washington receiy ID through the
minister of Ecuador To the United
States specimens of plant known as
oundurango, found in the province OF
Loya, in Ecuador, TO which marvellous
qualities in curing cancer were ascribed.
The physicians in South America expert
mented on this substance and reported
most wonderful cures. Its virtues are
said to have been discovered by accident.
An Indian had been suffering fearfully
for a long time from internal cancer,
and his wife undertook to relieve him
by shortening his life by poison For
this purpose she selected the cunduran-
20, making decoction of the bark. To
her astonishment the first dose appeared
to benefit the patient, and by the con-
tinpance of this remedy he was COM
pletely cured in a short time.-New
York Advertiser.

He Seemed to Live In . Charmed Circle and
Went About with No Fear.
In reply to the question in what en-
Rswements he considered himself to
have been in the greatest danger OF los
ing his life Napoleon once said. I'm
the commencement Of my campaigns "
IniaoDd II further proof were demanded
20 show that he did not spare himself
Ct Toulon IL IL only necessary to add
that during the 10 weeks Of its siege.
Napoleon, in addition to bayonet
wound in his thigh. had three horses
shot under him, while at the siege OF
Acre during the expedition to Egypt he
lost no fewer than four in the same
manner.
During the last days Of his life. when
captivity, disappointment and sickness
had we'll nigh completed their work, it
is said that the agony Of his fatal dis
ease drew from him on many occasions
the pitiful cry of. "Why did the cannon
balls spare me?'
During his long military career Ma
poleon fought so battles, while Caesar
fought but 90. In the early part of his
career he was utterly reckless Of danger
while on the battlefield, and this spirit
of fearlessness contributed largely to
the love and esteem in which he was
held by his armies. There was a curious
belief among the English in Napoleon $
time that he had never been wounded,
and indeed the report was current that
he carefully, if not in a cowardly man
ner, refrained from exposing himself.
Nothing could be more contrary to the
truth, for he was in reality several
times severely wounded, but as he wish
ed to impress upon his troops the belief
that good fortune never deserted him.
and that. like Achilles, he was well
nigh invulnerable he always made a
secret of his many dangers. He there
fore enjoined once for all upon the part
OF his immediate staff the most absolute
silence regarding all circumstances of
this nature, for it is almost impossible
to calculate the confusion and disorder
which would have resulted from the
slightest report or the smallest doubt
relative to his existence. Upon the sim
gle thread of this mans life depended
mot only the fate and government Of a
great empire, but the whole policy and
destiny of Europe as well.

Cost Of Electric Cooking.

Ik has been shown by recent expert
nsnts that there is practically no differ
sace in cost between cooking by elec-
Gicity and by coal, while the advan-
tnees Of the former method in point OF
onfnfort, cleanliness and safety are con
6dersble. OF every 100 tons OF coal
turned in an ordinary cooking stove 96
s6ns are, it is said. practically wasted,
whereas with electricity the expense Is
not 90 much ON the fuel as on labor and
interest on machinery.
