THE BREATH of a chronic catarrh
patient is often so offensive that he be-
comes an object of disgust. After a
time liberation sets in, the spongy
bones are attacked, and frequently
destroyed. A constant source of dis.
comfort is the dripping of the purulent
secretions into the throat, sometimes
producing inveterate bronchitis, which
is usually the exciting cause of pull
monary disease. The brilliant results
by its use for years past properly desig-
nate Ely's Cream Balm as by far the
best and only cure. Call upon your
druggist for it,

WHO WON THE BET "A group of
ladies and gentlemen sat on the piazza
of seaside resort. A little maiden of
some ten summers was busily engaged
in digging the sands of the seashore
with her naked toes. Ever and anon
the music of her sweet little voice went
singing and dancing over the rip
ping waves, losing its swee tne5s in
the louder murmur of the ocean. iii
bet CIGARS" said one, ''she is singing
BY the Sad Sea Waves" '-Oh. no.
said another, ''I'll bet il cream for the
party its What are the Wild Waves
sayingY" The group approached the
little girl and she, unmindful of their
presence, continued her song. This is
what it was:
"DOS-gone you, hate you,
| wish you had died;
You told me you loved me,
And darn you, you lied"

The PPODpP Education.

In glancing over the annual catt

iinie also that the pamphlet itself is
printed on the press of the school ana
presumably by the pupils Tai. is at'
advance step in he education of the
negro youth aud is along the line so
long advocated by this journal. Why
are not other industrial features added.
may we askY There is room for a grea
deal of useful instruction in the mis-
sion schools of the southern states be
sides literary instruction. 1t has been
demonstrated that beyond "a certain
point. literary education of the negro
is Improbable to himself and the con-
munity.
The girls and boys get too "biggety
when they reach the higher grades
their parents and are largely of no az
count to anybody. What they need is
industrial education How to keep
house we'll; how to wash and iron will;
how to sew and cut clothes well; how
to cook well; how to carpenter. liake
shoes, and do things which require me
c!lnnlcai skill; how to farm AN iDteli
gent manner and, i'll short, to supply
the demands of practical life for the
various kinds of service in a country
like this. When the negro has learned
this lesson and the whites have learned
the need for his learning it and follow
ing it, the so-called negro problem will
have been about solved
What the public schools should do
for the benefit of the negro is to make
their education chiefly industrial. Give
the elementary work of reading, writ
ing and arithmetic and then something
practical in the way of manual train
ing. Training which will be of value
both to the recipient of it and to the
state because it will produce self-sup-
porting man or woman. The same
thing is true of the whites though not
to so great an extent. Agriculture is a
great study for the you'll, of the land,
black and white, for upon that, at last,
depends the economical and political
salvation of nations. Our schools all
need reform along these lines.-NO7tolk

Easter Island.
In the South Pacific ocean is an is
land belonging to the Polynesian arch
ipelago, about 80 miles In circumfer-
ence, and which at it's highest point is
1900 feet above the level of the sea.
This is Easter island, formerly called
Davis Land, and has 2, 900 inhabitants,
who, like all the other South Sea is
landers, are dark skinned.
1t appears to have been of volcanic
origin, but the greater point of interest
about 1t is not its people, with their
habits and manners, but the wonderful
ruins which are found there. These
consist of temples, with statues IL and
Is feet high, some of them in rows
stumbling on wide platforms of solid
masonry. The inhabitants of the is
land know nothing at all of these ruins
nr of those who built them.
Therefore, like many others, they
may date centuries back, and perhaps
are pr; historic They evidently are the
work of n race that has passed away,
and about which we can only conjec-
ture. Who these people were, what
they believed and what they did are
questions that, like many others, must
remain unanswered. = Goldthwaite's
Geographical Magazine.
Famous Races.
The most extraordinary instance per-
haps of the stoutness as we'll as speed of
the race horse was afforded by Cub
bier, who in December, 1886, ran 90
miles round the fiat at Newmarket in
81 minutes and 10 seconds In 1772
mile was run by FREELY in 1 minute and
45 seconds, and Flying ChiIders ran
over the Beacon course miles 1 fur
long 1873 yards-in Z minutes and so
seconds.
In 1745 Mr.. Thornton rode from STREET.
ton to London, back and again to Lon.
don, making 215 miles in II hours on
turnpike road and uneven ground, and
when the wretched state of the roads at
that period is considered the feat be-
comes truly remarkable.
Sir Robert Carey, when he rode from
London to Edinburgh to inform King
James of the death of Queen Elizabeth,
is credited with doing remarkable
thing in having ridden 800 miles in less
than three days. He did not come off
scathless, for he had several falls and
received many bruises, and he came
into the king 8 presence all battered and
blood stained.
During our Revolutionary war Cen
eral Lafayette rode from his headquar-
tiers in Rhode Island to Boston, dis
lance of almost 70 miles, in seven
hours, and Immediately upon having an
interview with Washington made the
return journey in 6I hours.
In this connection the famous ride of
Nicks, or Dick Turpin, should not be
forgotten. He had committed a robbery
in London about o'clock in the morn
ing, and fearing arrest made for Graves
end, where he was ferried across the
Thames and appeared the same night at
8 O'Clock upon the Bowling Green of
the city of York. He was nevertheless
arrested, and upon his trial was acquit
ted, the jury deeming it physically i'm
possible for the same horse to bear the
same man 800 miles in 16 hours.-Bos-
ton Herald.
