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.
Its 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; efectually cleansing the system,
dispellipg 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
ufactared by the California Fig 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.

usual garrison and some thousands
more are on the way from Spain.
Other evidence Of the seriousness OF
the situation is the great anxiety In
Madrid, where the emptiness OF the
treasury Of Spain is only too wen
known, and the hardness of the task
of subduing Cuba fully appreciated.
1t would evidently be cheaper and
better for Spain TO grant the Cubans
practically everything they ask short
of independence, including the most
radical reforms in local government
rather than to attempt to compel ac-
ceptance Of the old order OF things AT
the point Of the bayonet, because there
lis no doubt that the Cubans have
grievances enough to protest, and
until these wrongs are righted Spanish
rule in that island win only be main-
tanned by force, against which will
come revolt after revolt The home
rule measure that the Cortes is about
to enact for Cuba may seem to Span
ish eyes a great concession to Cuban
demands, but If Cubans are not salts
fed with it the Cortes can well afford
to 80 so far as to grant practical au-
tonomy rather than repeat the expert
ence of 20 years ago now,--with the
outlook that il the rebellion be put
down now another may soon follow
in its wake. The time Is propitious
for medieval methods OF governing
colonies, and for exploiting them for
the benefit of the home treasury or of
fayorites of the home government.
Great Britain has learned this lesson
and France is learning it the former
holds the loyalty of her colonies by
giving them practical autonomy, and
the latter is moving in the same direc-
ton. Sooner or later Spain must
adopt this policy with Cuba or lose it
by successful revolution.

SITUATION IN CUBA.
Death Of Marti a Very Severe
Loss.

The Cuban insurgents have met with
a severe loss in the death of Marti,
who was the real head of the rebellion,
and as much as anybody IT'S insprer.
He was an experienced and ardent rev.
olutionist and had been enga ged in
several revolts which led to his inn
prisonment aud exile. He had made
a reputation as an author and ora tor,
and was regarded as the coming pres
ident Of the provisional government of
the possible Cuban republic. Marti
was not a soldier, his abilities We're
political rather than military, but he
took the field with the others and was
killed in an engagement with the gov
eminent troops But the rebellion has
gone too far to permit the death of any
single leader to have any consider
able effect upon 1t, and it begins TO
look as though the Spanish govern
ment has as hard task before 1T as 1t
had score of years ago when it took
10 years and 100000 men to bring the
rebels to submission
IubTt SepIIlS w ING IL IlldIhtu NlIleT-
ence between this outbreak and the
frequent disturbances caused by spas
modic revolts of small bands of insurg-
emts here and there in the island.
There have been a dozen or more at
tempted revolutions in Cuba in as
many years, some of them covering
considerable territory and involving a
good many men, but every one local
and most Of them practically disor-
ganized. None since 1871 has been in
any sense general, or had other than q
limited and local public sentiment
behind IT. 1t seems certain that In
no recent revolt have SO many Cnbans
from all over the island been engaged,
that not for long time have so many
exiles come home to fight again for In
dependence, or for redress Of griev-
ances. and that not even IN the seven
ties had the insurgents so large and
well-equipped a force in the field
against The government. There II
proof enough Of the strength Of the
rebels In the large number Of troops
sent out from Spain TO crush them,

Campos has not been given out but

First Korean Woman Who Has Ever

The only mode of travelling for women
in Korea is by chairs and therefore they
seldom go very far from home. No un-
married woman is allowed to go travel
Ing or show herself in public alone.
1t was this reason that induced Kim,
young Korean woman, who had since
her childhood been educated by the Metho-
DIST missionaries, to marry in order that
She might be allowed to go out among
the heatheDs or her own country and
preach the gospel. The marriage turned
out very happy one and the young couple
have had no trouble, although they never
saw each other until the wedding day,
and Esther, which is her Christian name,
was enabled to do good among her people
as an interpreter and teacher.
1t was her good fortune when only fifteen
years old to be employed as interpreter
by DR.. Rusette Sherwood Hall, a medi-
cal missionary, who took a great interest
In the bright young woman and instructed
her in the use OF medicine, employing
