Diamond Fields.

1t will strike most readers with some
surprise to learn how enormous has
been the total output of the diamond
fields. 1t is only little over twenty
six years since the first claims were
pegged at Kim erly January 81, 1879,
and in that time there have been pro-
duced in South Africa, and mostly in
this limited area, diamonds worth 975,-
600, 900, and the aggregate is increasing
every year at the rate of more than 49,
100000. Immense as is this value, they
would take but little space, and would
weigh only about seventeen tons. II
they were all poured into the furnace OF
the Norman or the Scott and defager-
ated in pure oxygen they would not
suffice to drive either of those fine
steamers of the Union Line for single
day. Yet those seventy millions of
value have had momentous effect on
the fortunes of Africa. When these
fields were discovered the Cape railway
stopped more than 500 miles south OF
Kimberley; before this year is out
they will reach to Buluwayo, more than
600 miles further north. 1t is doubt
ful whether without Kim berley the i'm
portance of Bechunaland and Rhodesia
would ever have dawned either on Cape
Town or Downing street.
These radiant crystals of carbon have
been very crucial factor in the max
ing of South Africa. 1t is perhaps as
astonishing to know that the profits of
the single company, the De Beers Con-
solidated, on it's two principal mines
are equal to the entire revenue of the
gold mines on the Rand. Last year the
dividends of the forty-two leading VEN
lures at johannesburg, of which only
about half paid anything, amounted in
all to Ell 522, 700, while the profit from
the De Beers and Kimberley mines was
e1,712,S54, and the dividend bonus de-
clared came to Ell, 579, 5S2, the rate be-
ing 40 per cent per annum. The capital
is about one-fourth of that sunk in the
paying gold reefs, and not one-eighth
of the total invested on the Rand. It
is true that the gold raised was worth
more than twice as much as the dia-
monds, but the Rand had to pay nearly
$4,000, 600 of taxation. Here there is,
no iniquitous railway monopolies; ex-
plosives cost 55 shillings per case, in
stead of IS shillings, and there is
rational self-government. In word,
transfer Boer rule to Kimberley, and
you may say good-by dividends.-Lon-
don Telegraph.

A great revolution in warfare will be
effected If anything comes of the new
French rifle which discharges vitriol in
stead of bullets. Heroes do not fear
death, but naturally shrink from distg-
urement. The Duke of Wellington, we
are told in the Latin Grammar Comic,
would walk among the cannon-b balls,
him not caring one blow" but even the
great duke would hardly have exhibit
ed the same Indifference to rifles squirt
ing vitriol. No decent-looking soldier
will be got to face them; they will have
to be approached backwards. This will
entail new system of drill. Think
of whole regiment charging back
ward! If both forces are possessed of
this novel weapon, the spectacle will
be doubly entertaining. Our ideas will
not only be transformed, but Inverted.
When our warriors return, says James
Payn, they will no longer exhibit with
pride the wounds they have received in
front-quite the reverse; the more be.
hind the better.

THE CARETAKER.

Caretaker is word adopted into modern
use and means one who takes care of.
and is generally applied to those en-
polyed to take care of things committed
to their keeping. The way some people
have of taking care of themselves is very
suggestive of the need of caretaker. The
human body TO such is a mansion filled
with precious things uncared for, where
thieves may break in and rust doth COR
rupt. Pains and aches are thieves, and
the body left uncared for 10 their spoil
age will be robbed of all it's comforts and
despoiled of it's peace of mind and happi-
ness. 1t is happy thought to look upon
st. Jacobs Oh as caretaker, to employ
it as Waterman against such intruders.
There is hardly an ache, from toothache
to toeache, that it can't take care of
and effect cure, and pains the most vio-
lent are conquered by it's use. Its office
as Ecaretaker is to prevent the spread
OF aches and pains into "a chronic stage.
Keep bottle of it in the handiest place
and be assured of good care and comfort.

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with urine
and let it stand twenty four hours; sed-
iment or settling indicates an unhealthy
condition of the kidneys. When urine
stains linen it is evidence of kidney troub-
lie Too frequent desire to urinate or pain
in the back, is also convincing proof that
tee kidneys and bladder ore out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfls
every wish in relieving pain in the back,
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of
the urinary passages. 1t corrects inabil-
ity to hold urine and scalding pain in
passing it, or bad effects following use
of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes
that unpleasant necessity of being COM
PEELED to get up many times during the
night to urinate. The mild and the ex-
traordinaro effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distressing
cases. If you need medicine you should
have the best. Sold by druggists, price
fifty cents and one dollar. You may
have sample bottle and pamphlet both
sent free by mail Mention this paper
and send your address to DIR. Killmer &
Co., Bingham, N. Y. The proprietors
of this paper guarantee the genuiness of
4his offer.

The Paw Of Naval Officers,

The relative rates Of American and
British naval officers pay in comparl-
son are as follows: Naval cadet $500,
midshipman $3.50; ensign $1,000, sub
lieutenant $455 with extra as naviga-
tor 1925; lieutenant, junior grade, ST.
800, lieutenant 5000 to $3.50 with ex-
tras up to $685.; lieutenant $2,400, lieu
tenants in command $1,O05 to $1,370
with extras from 1920 to sos; lieuten-
ant commander $1,000, commander
$500; commander $1,825 with extras
to sos; captain $4,000, captain $1,000
to 5000 with extras from 1856 to
$1,640. Thus only the senior captain
in the British navy, with full allowance
Of extras, receives more than our Junior
captain. But after one gets to be cap
tain things change. Every British cap
tain becomes a rear admiral in a few
years, as the rank of commodore is only
temporary, and a rear admiral starts
with $8,210 and may wlnd up with
$13,6S5. Our rear admirals get only
$4,000 at most, while their comrades
of equal rank in the army, the major
generals, get $500. Then the British
sailor has two, and sometimes three,
steps after he gets his flag; he may be-
come vice admiral, with pay ranging
from $12,775 to $15,51O, and even adj
miral, with pay and allowances of
ST., 100 to $19,635.

These frequent train hold-ups, each
more audacious and startling than any
which preceded, indicate that railway
managers and local authorities alike
have failed to take the necessary steps
to put an end to this form of highway
robbery. From stealing train to steal

the railway companies of the West
want possession of their roads they
will soon be compelled to adopt some

How to Blast.

An old miner says: 81 see many &C
counts of accidents to miners from pick
ing out missed shots. It is not neces-
sary to pick out any holes, if loaded in
the following manner: lamp in powder
first; put in moderately with stick !;
then put in cap and fuse; put balance
of powder on cap and lamp lightly. If
an upper, use little paper on top of
all. The tendency of giant powder is
down and out, not down and up. l have
tried it for the last month about six
times day. My holes break to bot
tom, and just as good as when holes
are filled to the brim with tamping."
