yesterday in the town Of lnn,-

the residences Of Frau Julie Ziebei'
and Herr Felix Treuberg. The loss
is total, partly covered by inslr

I summoned my poor little wife,
to whom I communicated as gently
as possible our great loss.
We began at once to prepare for
our return journey, and as our train
would not leave until the afternoon
I wired friend for further particu-
lars of the fire.
The answer came as we We're leav-

Only one dear voice he hears
Calling reassuringl?.
''All Alorcy!"
Though his legs bend with their LOAD,
Though his feet they seem so small!
That you cannot help forbode
Some disastrous episode

Neither threatening bump nor fall

When he shares of sorrows store,

Divine with mother love and cheer
Calling from yonder spiri. shore.

Diabetes is disease of the nutrltlve

urine. The daily quantity OF urine is
greatly increased. This disease may be
divided into acute and chronic form,
but except in their duration there Is no
essential difference Frequent urina-
tion and an intense thirst are the first
symptoms that mark the onset of this
disease, together with a voracious ap-
petite, the patient then begins to grow
thin and sallow, losing flesh rapidly
until he becomes mere skeleton. The
thirst Is almost uncomfortable. 1t general
ly being greatest about an hour or two
after meals. The tongue Is dry, red
and glazed and the saliva very scanty;
the gums become swollen, and consti-
patton generally attacks the patient
with these symptoms. Notwithstand-
Ing the enormous food consumed the
patient gradually wastes away The
skin becomes dry and harsh, and pers-
piration rarely occurs. Boils, carbuncles
and other diseases Of the skin often
occur, especially eczema and pruritus.
The patient is attacked with headache,
and faint intoxicating feeling comes
over him and they generally fall into
deep, dull sleep. Diabetes, as a rule,
