We would suggest as a remedy for

We would suggest as a remedy for
the general depression in business all
over our country that the president OF
the United States be requested to
send every senator and representa-
tive horne where they belong, If they
have no trade or profession by which
they can earn a living, have each
state take care of its own until spring
and then turn them out to grass and
let them "root hog, or die" This
farce that is being played in Wash
ington this winter is very liable to
end in bankrupting the government.
All those fellows do is to eat, drink,
sleep and draw their pay; they could
do all but draw their pay if they were
at home if they have any homes
and thereby save our government a
large expense. There has been moth
ing but the rankest foolery going on
at government headquarters and we
think it is about time to call halt
Now Grover, take our advice and turn
all those fellows loose and shut up
the shop. If they have not saved
enough out of their salary to pay
their fare home, let them go on foot,
as we have to out here; then you and
your cabinet officials can donate 80
! per cent. of your salaries to help
make up the deficiency in the reserve
fund and go home happy. By acting
upon our advice you will gain the ev-
erlasting blessing of all who voted for
you for second term.

Tea was not known in England till
the time of Charles ii, but it is inter-
esting to trace the gradual increase in
the size of teapots, from the diminutive
productions of the Elers, in the time
of Queen Anne and George |, when tea
was sold in apothecaries shops, to the
capacious vessel which supplied DR..
johnson with the cup that cheers but
not inebriates. Mr.. Croker, in his edi
ton of BosweIl's Life, mentions a
teapot that belonged to DR.. johnson,
which held two quarts, but this sinks
into insigniicance compared with the
superior magnitude of that in the pos
session of Mrs. Marrayat of Wimbledon,
who purchased it at the sale of Mrs.
Piozzi s effects at Streatham. This tea
pot, which was the one originally used
by DR.. Johnson, holds more than three
quarts. George " had large assem-
blage of teapots, piled in pyramids in
the pavilion at Brighton. Mrs. Eliz-
abeth Carter was also collector of tea
pots. Also Mrs. Halves, who bequeathed
300 specimens to her daughter, Mrs.
Donkin. Among them are several be-
longing to Queen Charlotte. = Salas

POPULAR Everywhere.

Beginning with a small local sale
in a retail drug store, the business of
Hoods Sarsaparilla has steadily in
creased until there is scarcely vii
lage or hamlet in the United States
where it is unknown.
To-day Hoods Sarsaparilla stands
at the head in the medicine world,
admired in prosperity, and envied in
merit by thousands of our would-be
competitors. 1t has a larger sale
than any other medicine before the
American public, and probably great
er than all other sarsaparillas and
blood purifiers combined.
Such success proves merit.
IF you are sick, is it not the medi-
cine for you to try2 Hoods Sarsa-
parilla cures.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products TO
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
It's excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fly Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

A MODEL SAVAGE.
King Khama rs AN Autocrat Of the Be,
Possible Type.


King Khama Is am Autocrat OF the Best
Possible Type.
King Khama is a model savage, If a
black man who has been thoroughly
civilized by European and missionary
influences can still be called one. He
is an autocrat of the best possible type,
whose influence in his country is en-
tirely thrown into the scale of virtue
for the suppression of vice. Such
thing as theft is unknown in his realm.
He will not allow his subjects to make
or drink beer. He has put stop also
to the existence of witch doctors and
their wiles throughout all the Bamang-
wato.
He conducts in person services every
Sunday in his large, round kotla, or
place Of assembly, standing beneath the
tree Of justice and the wide canopy of
heaven in truly patriarchal style. He.
is keen in the suppression of all super
stitions and eats publicly the flesh OF
the duyker, sort of roebuck, which
was formerly the totem of the tribe and
held as sacred among them 20 years
ago. The late King Sikkome, Khama's
father, would not SO much as step on
a duyker skin, and it is still looked up
on with more veneration by his sub
iects than Khama would wish.
AS an instance of Khama's power and
Judgment, it is sufficient for us to quote
che sudden change of his capital from
Shoshong to the present site, Palapwe.
sx, cfr Vlncifi0n
where the Bamangwato could etfectual-
Iy protect themselves from the Mata-
beles' raids under Lobengula, but it was
badly supplied with water, and in dry
seasons the inhabitants suffered greatly
from drought. The change of capital
had been a subject discussed for years,
but Khama waited quietly until people
began to think that he was against it
and would never move. He waited, in
fact, until he was sure of British pro-
lection, until he knew that Lobengula
could not attack his people at Palapwe
without embroiling himself in war
with England.
Then suddenly one day, without any
