How to Increase in Weight and
Otherwise Improve Ones
Personal Appearance.

Every normally constituted man and
woman wants to look well. This is nat
ural and right. We have little sympathy
for those people who through Incidence
or gluttony have permitted themselves to
take on too much flesh. They know that
by living abstemiouSly and taking plenty
of exercise they can get back TO their nor
NAL weight.
We do, however, have a great deal OF
sympathy for those poor, pale, thin suf-
ferers, who either have no appetite or
else whose food diStresSes them to such a
degree that they are forced TO live on a
most frugal diet.
Their trouble ARIES from the fact that
they are unable to digest sufficient food
aud when the stomach is out of order and
fails to do its proper work, foods are
worse than useless. They simply ferment
In the stomach and fill the system with
poisonous principles.
What these people need is something
that viii digest their food after ii has
been eaten, and IL is inst such cases
that the Digestive Cordial. as made by
the Mount Lebanon Shakers, is proving
remarkably successful.
1t is so prompt in its action that a sense
of relief almost Immediately follows the
first dose, and rapid increase in weight
is soon noted.
The Shakers have issued an interesting
pamphlet, which may be obtained upon
iGquiry at any drug store.

tive Cordial and see what 1t will do for

A Unique Coat-of-Arms.

.D~re was one Philadelphia who not
Osy Invented arms for himself, but new
and republican arms, after discardng the
ancestral arms of his family. This was
Peter Brown, at one time an eminent citi-
Zen of Philadelphia.
In 1894 William Priest. an English musi-
clan, became attached to the theater in
Philadelphia in his professional capacity.
In 1902 Mr.. Priest printed in London book
entitled Priests Travels in the United
States" which is now exceedingly rare. The
frontispiece to this book is strange and
curious design, entitled "Peter Browns
Arms" In explanation of this frontispiece
Mr.. Priest says: Peter Brown, a blacksmith
of this city, having made his fortune, set up
his coach; but so far from being ashamed of
the means by which he acquired his riches,
he caused large anvil to be painted on each
side of his carriage, with two pair, of naked
arms in the act of striking The motto BY
this got ye."

Pence Declared.

The Emperor of japan has procJt.~ an
unconditional armistice in Chinese territory,
and it is thought the wounding of Ii Hung
Chang fastened the settlement of the pro.
posals for peace. The warning Japs are so in
spired by success that they are not inclined to
cease their attacks. The power of the japanese
Government to execute the aTmistice will now
be put to critical test The military power
of Japan, in the judgment of intelligent OBJ
servers, has almost outstripped the civil power
during the war.
To meet this emergency. a change of army
commanders was recently made. There had
been three army corps, operating in different
campaigns, and each under a General of SUI
preme authority over his particular campaign.
About three wee ago, in anticipation of the
armistice, Prince komatsee was created COM
mander-in-chief over oil the armies. The pur-
pose OF this step was to concentrate authority
in one man, in close touch with the Imperial
household who could TINS execute an armistics
by simultaneous cessation of hostlities by
the three armies. 1t now remains to be seen
whether Prince Komatsee can execute the i'm.
portant commission given to him.

AFRICAN COLONISTS.
Their Departure from Savannah a Notable
Scene.

Their Departure from Savannah q Notable
Scene.
When the Horsa sailed the other day from
Savannah for Liberia with 200 negroes on
board the scene was an interesting Que.
Early In the morning negroes from all sec
tions Of the country began TO gather near the
dock to see their brethren start for Africa.
BY 10 o'clock upward OF 5000 had assembled.
The scene was pathetic. Men and women
of all ages, children from four years of age
upward and one or two cripples, all Joined
in prayer and hymns making scene never
TO be forgotten by those present.
1t required over three hours to load the
baggage, household effects, and provisions
of the negroes. The emigrants carry with
them large quantity of baggage. Nearly
400 trunks and boxes were taken on the
ship. A few were put in the hold, butithe
bulk were left on the deck until room is
made below by the consumption of the coal
In the boxes are agricultural implemen Is,
firearms, ammunition, household utensils,
and supplies of clothing, besides one or two
wagons
This party will probably be the best
equipped that has ever left America for the
dark continent They spent considerable
money purchasing supplies of all kinds.
There was probably not a man in the party
who has not sufficient TO provide subsistence
for some time after landing in Liberia.
Promptly at ! o'clock the steamer left
the dock amid great cheering by the 5000
negroes who were waiting to see ii start A
song, composed by one of the emigrants, was
sung as the ship went down the river.
Besides the colonis.s and crew there were
three white men who took passage.
