The iron grasp of scrofula has no
mercy upon its victims. This demon
of the blood is often not satisfied with
causing dreadful sores, but racks the
body with the pains of rheumatism
until Hoods Sarsaparilla cures.

Animals illusions.

Birds are perhaps more commonly the
victims of illusions than other animals
their stupidity about their eggs being
quite rencrkable. Last year, for in
stance, hen got into the pavilion of a
ladies' golf club and began to sit on a
golf ball in a corner, for which il made
a nest with a couple of pocket handker-
chiefs But many quadrupeds are not
only deceived for the moment by rehec-
tions, shadows and such unrealities, but
often seem victims TO illusions largely
developed by the imagination.
The horse, for instance, is one of the
brayest of animals when face to face
with dangers which it can understand,
such as the charge of an elephant or a
wild boar at bay. Yet the courageous
and devoted horse, so steadfast against
the dangers he knows, is a prey to a
hundred terrors of the imagination due
to illusions, mainly those of sight, for
shying, the minor effect of these illu-
sions, and "bolting." in which panic
gains complete possession of his soul,
are caused, as a rule. by mistakes as to
what the horse sees, and not by misin-
depreciation OF what he hears It is no.
ticed, for instance, that many horses
which shy usually start away from OBJ
jects ON one side more frequently than
from objects ON the other. This is prob
ably due to defects in the vision of one
or other eye.
In nearly all csSes of shying the horse
takes fright at some unfamiliar object,
though this is commonly quite harm
less, such as a wheelbarrow upside
down, freshly felled log or piece Of
paper rolling before the wind. This in
stantly becomes an illusion, is inter.
preted as something else, and it is a Gu.
rious question in equine homeopathy tC
know what it is that the horse figures
these harmless objects to be. WheI

Of any French Bourbons. except Louis

recurring malady of the Spanish royal
family ever since Elizabeth Farnese
married Philip V. She was the heiress
of the latest Italian that probably ever
lived. He was a prince for a Barnum
show whose legs had to be propped up
by buckram and whalebone cases to pre-
vent them overlapping his feet. Fatty

At Republican mass meeting held

''In every free silver coinage country
gold has been driven out, and the only
money in use in those countries is silver

redeemable in silver. The poorest dollar
of any gold standard country can be ex-
changed for two Of the best dollars OF
any free silver country. / prefer to live

increased the value of the metal upoI

No Class Distinction.

In America We spurn all GLASS distino-
tions. We are all equal citizens-equal
in privileges and opportunity. In
America, thank God. no man is born to
power. None is assured of station or
command except by his own worth OF
usefulness. But to any post of honor
all who choose may aspire, and history
has proved that the humblest in youth
are frequently the most honored and
powerful in the maturity of strength
and age. 1t has been long demonstrated
that the philosophy of jefferson is true,
and that this. the land of the free and
self governed is the strongest as vel
as the best government in the world
Let us keep it sound. William McKin
ley in a Speech to Laboring Men.
