J. P. Kershaw desires us to pub
lish the following extract from a
letter of Chas. M. Gutfeld, of
Reedler, Freson Co., CAL, as he
handles the remedy referred to and
wants his customers to knew what
a splendid medicine it is: at is

Cough remedy / was relieved of a
very severe cold. Ny head was COM
pletely stopped up and could not

remedy" A cold nearly always
starts in the head and afterwards
extends to the throat and lungs.
By using this remedy freely as
soon as the cold has been contract
ed it will cure the cold at once and
prevent it from extending to the
lungs.

THE NEW WOMAN.
Ideals Regarding Women Have
Changed.
THE ATHLETIC WOMAN REIGN:
Which Makes the Best Wife, the
Bicycle Girl or the Delicate,
''Clinging vine?"

Tot so very long ago, the ideal woman
was the helpless, strengthless creature,
who must be protected from the faintest
breath OF air, and from the slightest cx-
ertion. She was beautifully and cohfid-
lngiy dependent upon the manly ''oak"
10 which she clung. She passed IRON an
utter dependence upon her father and
brothers To an equnlly utter dependence
upon husband. She had little self rel-
ance, and still less ability to take care
OF herself. And now. of late years there
has been change-and We hear OF u
New Woman"
That there actually is a New Woman"
there can be no doubt. Her manner OF
Clothing herself has really very little To
do with the case. Her newness consists
rather IN Il new mind and a new body than
in new clothes. She is distinctly able to
take care ofhcrself. A greatmany of them
make their own living 20 where they
please when they please. and how they
please. The New Woman is much more
independent than her predecessors She
ias found new objects in life to take the
place of the only one possessed by the
woman OF u few years ago-the object OF
matrimony. Thirty years ago, a girl oyer
twenty was looked upon as something of
an old maid. Nowadays a woman never
gets so old that she is an old maid The
term is obsolete. The New " oman marres,
II she pleases-and IL the right man presents
himself. She Is able to take care OF her
self. She doesn't have to lean on anybody.
She doesn't have to depend on anybody for
her living. She can ma Ike that for herself.
Quite often She can make a better living
for herself than she will have provided for
her by the man She marries. and she doesn't

BY what occult means do barbarians
transmit news with almost the rapidity

the facility with which information is
spread far and wide is marvellous.
Only with the utmost difficulty has the
intelligence department OF the British army
learned of the movements OF the dervlsbes.
The Egyptians and the other native allies
OF the English army seem not to have
been possessors of the dervishes' secret
modes.
on the other hand, Moha mmedans every-
where were informed of the advance up
the Nile of the Anglo Egyptian army. No
more pilgrims are going to Mecca, but all

the information. Terry's Crow scouts
told their chief the next day. and the story
was discredited. Two days later when
Terry reached the battlefield, he found
his scouts had not exaggerated.
In Alaska several years ago a naval lieu

SURE OF YOUR WEAPON.

In the first place, If you want to be ef-
fectual i'll doing good, you must be very
sure of your weapon. There was some
thing very sciDating about the archery
of olden times. Perhaps you do not know
what they could do with the bow and ar
row. Why, the chief battles fought by
the English Planta geDets were with the
long bow. They would take the arrow
of polished wood, and feather it with
the plume OF a bird, and then it would
fly from the bow-string Of plated silk.
The battle fields of Agincourt, and Sol
way Moss, and Neville's Cross heard the
loud thrum of the archer's bow-string.
Now, my Christian friends, we have a
mightier weapon thai that. 1t is the ar
row of the Gospel; it is a sharp arrow; it
is a straight arrow; it is feathered from
the wing of the dove Of Gods Spirit: it
flies from a bow made out of the wood Of
the cross. As far as can estimate or col
culate, it has brought down hundreds of
millions OF souls. Paul knew how to bring
the notch of that arrow on to that bow
string, and its whir was heard through
the Corinthiap theaters, and through the
court room, until the knees of Felix
knocked together. 1t was that arrow that
stuck in Luther's heart when he cried out,
"Oh, my sins! Oh, my siDsl' If 1t
strike a man In the head, it kills his scep-
ticism; IL it strike man in the heel, it
will turn his step; If it strike him in the
heart, he throws up his hands, as did the
Emperor Julian of old when wounded ,in
the battle, crying, % Galileap, Thou hast
conqueredr'
SELECTING THEHUNTING GROUND.
Again, If you want to be skiliful in
spiritual archery, you must hunt IN un-
frequented and secluded pla ces. Why
does the hunter go three or four days in
the Pennsylvania forests or over Raquctte
Lake into the wilds of the A dirontla cks?
It is the only way to do.
