GIVE THEM A REST.
The only Restorative for Tired Men
and Horses.

Is a tired horse, which has worked all day,
dashed because his strength is haggingS Some
times, when a savage or fool drives him. A
wise man lets tired horses rest. Tired organs in
the human body are also lashed with so-called
"tonics," that are supposed to be strengthening.
Nothing gives STRENGTH INIT food
Paskola is food, rich in nutritious elements
1t is pre-digested and requires no work of feeble
stomachs. So Benjamin Helms OF Bridgeton, N.
j.. found cut afteI medicines had failed to relieve
him of indigestion. He writes. May 4th, 1894:
II felt q beneficial result from the very first
dose, am gaining in strength daily and have u
ravenous appetite. In fact l can eat the most
hearty and rich food that has been repulsiye to
ME for year past My heart is much stronger,
and am free from sinking spells"
He could eat rich food after time because Pas
kola had given his stomach chance to rest.
Mrs. Charles E. Latham of Ill West 45th St.,
New York City. writes:
"For FIVE years have suffered frcm gastric in
digestion, besides courses of treatment from ply.

Bread on the waters.

Two gamblers were hiving the sunshine
on one of the business corners when an
old man hobbled by. He had signals Of
distress all over him. AS the dying driver
of a Montana coach said Of himself, this

not reach the brake. This man was once
police justice in this city. The gamblers
stepped aside TO let him go by.

PAUPERS MALTREATED,
Horrible State of Affairs in q
British Poor House.

LONDON, April 2S.-Lord Courtenay,
special government inspector, today
concluded an inquiry into the manage
ment of the poor house at ''Newton
Abbot" which has developed condi-
hon of affairs unparalleled in the his
tory of the poor house system of this
country. One hundred and fifty wit
neSSeS were examined and some of the
eorroborative testimony would have re-
f1ected upon a country inhabited by
Savages. 1t was shown that what are
known as ''straight.jackets" are in
constant use in the poor house, and
that aged inmates of both sexes had
been placed in them naked, ana then
tied TO the iron of a bedstead. One
woman, eighty years old, died five days
after being confined in this manner, aud
was actually tied down until within an
hour of her death.
A personal Investigation of the lnsti-
tuition by Lord Cohrtenay brought to
light some trightful facts. A woman
was fOnnd ihcrusted with dirt and Gov
cred with vermin. Her hair had been
shaved close TO her head and her finger
and toenals were like claws, averaging
three inches in length. Another woman,
who was paralyZed, had her finger nails
30 long that they made wounds in her
flesh. In the shed in the poor house
yard was found an insane woman
crouched in corner. her face badly
bruised and her body almost devoid of
clothing. 1t was testified that almost
daily she was pelted with stones, and In
winter time with snowballs, by the in
mates in the boys department, the su-
perintendents son being the ringleader.
Some OF the boys said they pelted the
poor creature to hear her swear. 1t
was also shown that the inmates of the
insane department INDUCED in daily
fights, and proof was offered that i'm.
morality was rife in the institution.

Russian Princes.

The title of prince in Russia is so
common that it has little significance.
The bearers of the distinction, says
foreign journal. are more numerous
than 1.-The wearers of the Legion of
Honor in French cafe, or colonies in
the Southern states of America" The
truth of this statement is illustrated in
a report in the last edition of the mill
tarY gazette. Ruski Invalid. 1t records
the deaths of thirteen officers of the
militia, of whom nine were princes.
"1n the Caucasus" says the journal re-
ferred to above, every owner of large
flock of sheep calls himself Prince
All of these sheep princes are addressed
rs 'Highness,' the same as the sons of
tie oldest prircely families.
when one of these sheep owners
goes to foreign countries he places the
title Prince on his card. and plays a
certain part in uninitiated circles. The
same thing is true of the
many representatives in Russia
of che Tartar 'princely' families
Many ancient Russian families,
such as the Narvschkin, Waie-
woloshki. ETC., entitled to the prefix
prince before their names, decline to
use it for fear of being COMPOUNDED with
these apparent princes. Representa-
tiyes of these families are content with
the use of the cOat-of-arms."

Inquiries have resulted in informa-
lion that the German government will
under no consideration consent to any
proposition which would diminish Ger
man influence in Samoa or elsewhere,
and change from the present attitude
Of the German government towards
Samoa, therefore. could only be in oil
section of German protectorate over
The Samoan islands. On the other
hand. the German government is will
Ing to grant to the United States by
treaty any demands which would secure
TO America her present commercial
rights and standing in Samoa. This is
the standpoint of Germany, and it is
looked upon as involving the honor of
The German empire.
All the German newspapers comment
upon the CoXeylte movement, and eX-
press establishment at what they term
the absence OF cooperation between
the governments of the various states
to nip the agitation in the bud. AT the
same time nothing serious is expected,
the general opinion being that the
Washington government will make
short work of any attempted disturb
auce.
The Bavarian government, with the
double view to prevent adulteration and
to bring profit to the Bavarian treasury.
has opened an extensive drinking sa-
loon in Munich. This has greatly in

ment ought to be satisfied with the In
mense profits it already gets from the
state brewery.
In pursuance Of his plan to suppress
extravaganza among officers of the Ger
man army, Emperor William has in
Structed the commanding officers only

TO suppress the custom according to
which subordinate officers make eX-
penslve presents.
