without q Parallel.

When Southern newspapers speak Of
the marvellous recuperative qualities
displayed by the South since the war,
OF its wonderful growth, advancement.
and development, and its great re-
sources, advantages and possibilities,
those not acquainted with It's history or
the facts are inclined to the belief that
they are indulging In hyperbole, the re-
suit of sectional pride and enthusiasm.
1t would be difficult to overdrsw tho
picture or to indulge in extravaganza of
statement 1t is sufficient to tell the
truth. The following from the New
York Times is the truth: ~,asafe Et9
"There Is nothing in the history Of
the world to match the wonderful devel-
opmsnt Of the South since the civil
war, and especially during the last
dozen years. While there are examples
OF increase Of population and wealth in
the West that are justly the pride of
the whole nation, the South, It must be
remembered, has almost literally risen
from the grave. The devastation and
exhaustion Of the war, the absolute
abolition Of past property interests rep
resented by the slaves and the inevita-
BILE prostration of energies following
the tremendous and uuavailing strug.
gle in the field were something unpre-
cedented In the history of the world.
From the depth the South has risen
until it Is to- day the most promising
field for honest and intelligent enter
prise in the whole Union"

ifo Talks About tho Treatment OF Old
Sores and Ulcers.
Tho slowness which chnractcrizcs tho
healing of ulcers has sometimes led to the
belief that they arc incurable. Another
popular notion Is That their cure is detri-
mental to the health of the patient. With
equal propriety we might say that it is
dangerous to cure diarrhOa, dysentery,
consumption OF cancor. These erroneous
Impressions cause many people to suffer
for years and even lifetime without re-
lief. n few words as to the causes, results
and treatment of these painful ailments
will not be wanting In interest to news
paper readers.
The various species of ulcers are merely
notifications OF one form OF chronic sores
The sufferer m0y assert that he enjoys ex-
cellent health, but, II questioned closely
1t will be found that the sore irritntes him
and that there is sufficient constitutional
disturbance to prevent the healing powers
of nature from asserting itself and effect
Ing cure. The cure of these ulcers Is
therefore necessarily slow, and any one
expecting to obtain immediate relief will
be disappointed. Constitutional treatment
Is OF the utmost Importance.
Tho bowels should be kept in perfect
order; if constipated, the ulcer will be

patient suffers from nervousness, use bro

should also see that the blood is purified,
and digestive organs in good condition

Tin Roofs and Lightning.

A correspondent writes the Landmark
to say that his observation of twenty
five years teaches him that houses with
tin roofs are not injured by lightning,
tin roof acting as conductor to the
ground. This Is undoubtedly true. pro-
yided the tin roofs are connected by q
metallic conductor with the ground, but
II they are not 30 connected, they will
not act as perfect protection, what
ever the observation of our friend may
have been. The simple philosophy of
the ndatter Is that there must be a
metallic conductor from the surface
nesfess the cloud to the ground, so that
thefntense current may find an easy
pathway to the earth without passing
Through any portion of the house.
Therefore, either lightning rod or a
tin roof ia of little use unless it's connec-
tions are perfect.-Norfolk Landmark.
