forts-gentle efforts-pleaSant efforts
rightly directed There is comfort in
the knowledge that so many forms II
sickness are not due TO any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and Is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due TO the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which it acts tits therefore

SABBATH OBSERVANCE.

The task undertaken by Mrs. Cleve-
land and Miss Morton, sister of the
secretary ofagriculture, in promoting
Sabbath observance among the off
cial circles and fashionable society set
of Washington is worthy of respect.
In large cities people become more or
less careless Of keeping the day of
rest and good many social enter
tainments are INDUCED in. In Wash
ington receptions and dinner parties
on Sunday have been quite common,
and it is against these things that
these ladies are going to fight.
With the high position they hold
to help them they may do much, but
still when the tide sets strongly in
one direction it is hard for single in.
dividuals to stem it, and the putting
down Of Sunday entertaining in
Washington cannot be looked upon
as easy task.

A NEAR-sIGHTED EDITOR.

Senator Proctor has at last broken
the silence as to his presidential pref
erences and declared for New Eng
lands candidate, Speaker Reed.
This will be unweIcome news to the
Montpelier Argus and also to the
Bellows Falls Times, which latter
paper is the only one in the state
that we have observed that is boom
ing Mckinley. The Times has a
howery editorial for the Ohio man
closing with this blaze Of red fire;
"McKinley's star is rising toward
the zenith with undimmed lustre;
Reeds is scarcely above the horizon,
and shines with uncertain light"
The editor should consult some oc-
cuist for his nearsightedness. Both
Thomas B. Reed and his star of des-
tiny are all right.

A VETERAN JOURNALIST GONE.

E. B. Wight of Washington, the
webb" of the Boston Journal, died
last week Thursday of heart disease.
Wherever the Boston Journal was
read, webb" was household name
and for nearly 25 years he has been
that papers Washington correspond
ent. He was the veteran correspond
ent at the national capital, a man of
wide culture and a delightful CONVEX
sationalist. He was native of
Massachusetts, and his first connec-
ton with newspapers was as a news
boy for the Springfield Republican.
Mr.. Wight was cousin of N. P.
Lowering Of Lyndonville.

bathed in the sunlight of June, al
though | was told that this was as
cold weather as one might ever
expect in Honolulu. The houses IN
Honolulu, by the way, are construct
ed without furnaces or other heating
apparatus. There is but one fire.
place for heating on the islands
which is at the volcano-house on
| Hawaii.
Though Honolulu is a tropical
town in every respect, is impossible
for one to be ashore five minutes
without realizing that, after all, the
energy and propelling power in this
wonderful land are not tropical, but
Anglo.Saxon. Wherever there is
directing energy or organizing power,
or enterprise, or action, there one
will find the American. Americanism
predominates in the intelligent and
ruling spirits of the Islands. This is
shown in hundred ways. The very
republic was declared on the fourth
of July in order that the day might
be doubly endeared to the hearts Of
the people. Almost as much interest
is manifested here in the affairs ofthe
United States as in the states them
selves. The results of the election
and the policy of the administration
are watched with the keenest inter
est.
The American is chief in business
and politics. He is in the church,
the school, the counting room, on
the railroad, and steamer; at the
dry.dock and the foundry; at the
lumber yard, at the mill, and the
tow-boat. He is on the wharf when
you land, on the street as you pass,
at the hotel when you register. Moth
ing goes on successfully without him.
He fills teeth, cuts hair, mends shoes,
builds houses. shoes horses, mends
coffee pots, sells furniture, medicines
and hardwares, and fits clothes. In
fact you rub up against him every
where, at least where there is evil
dence of combined intelligence and
progress.
The Honolulu of today is the crea-
ton of the foreigner-the offspring of
his handiwork. You will find Eng
fish, Spa lish, Germans, Portuguese,
Japanese, Chinese and representa-
tives of almost every nationality in
the city, but the American element
predominatcs.
In hospitality the people Of Homo
lulu have no superiors. The traveller
is received with the warmth of the
South, and no pains are spared to
make him comfortable.

EXCLUDED FROM TURKEY.

The hopes OF those interested IN the
mission of the Red Cross society in
sending relief to the prosecuted Ar
menians in Turkey, are doomed to
disappointment, for it has been
announced from the Turkish legation
in Washington that
"The imperial government will not
permit any distribution among its sub
jects in its own territory by any foreign
society or individuals, however respecta-
bic the same may be las, for instance, the
Red Cross society," o(money collected
abroad. Such interference no lndepend-
ent government has ever allowed,
especially when the collections are made
on the strength OF speeches delivered in
public meetings by irreconcilable enemies
of the Turkish race and religion and on
the basis of false accusations that Tur-
key repudiates. Besides, the Sublime
Porte is mindful of the true interests of
its subjects, and, distinguishing between
the real state of things and the calum-
MES and wild exaggerations ofinterested
or fanatical parties, will, as it has done
heretofore under its own legitimate con-.
troll, alleviate the wants OF all Turkish
subjects living in certain provinces, IRE
spective of creed or race"
Following this official utterance a
resolution was introduced i'll the
house of representatives and has
been referred to the committee on
foreign affairs. After a preamble
setting forth the causes the resolu-
ton reads as follows;
Resolved, that the committee on
foreign affairs be requested to consider
the expediency ofreporting to this house
forthwith some expression by this gov
eminent in denunciation of these atroci-
ties; and if we find that we, as a nation,
are powerless to act, that we earnestly
invoke the union and cooperation of the
allied powers to wipe the Turkish govern
ment off of the face of the earth and
secure the freedom and independence of
Armenia.
The strength of this language APP
pears to be fully warranted by the
facts, for there can be little doubt
that the Sultan is fully cognizant of
the horrible outrages committed even
if he does not sanction them. Let
tiers have been received of late in this
country from sources which cannot
be doubted, confirming and giving
details OF the horrors some time
before reported by cable.
Only short period of these butch
cries will need to elapse before there
will be few Christian Armenians left
to succor. Meanwhile, Miss Clara
Barton is baflled in her effort to
carry relief to the suffering, but let
us trust turn will soon take place
in affairs which will enable help to
be taken to those who are suffering
such terrible things in Armenia.

Poisons engendered by food fermenting
in a dyspeptic stomach are the direct
cause of rheumatism, govt, bronchitis
liver and kidney complaints, asthma,
pneumonia and many nervous ailments.
These results are prevented by the use
of the Shaker Digestive Cordial, remedy
discovered and prepared by the Shakers of
Mount Lebanon, N. Y. 1t is in itself a
food and has power to digest other food
taken with it. Thus it rests the diseased
stomach and finally masters the worst
cases of dyspepsia. 1t acts promptly and
fresh strength and increase of weight
soon follows. The first dose, taken i'm
mediately after eating, abates the pain
and distress so dreaded by dyspeptics.
