How truly he spoke we know now
Fortwo and twenty years after the gath
of August, 1872, the sword was scarcely
laid aside in France for single month.
In the streets of Paris, at Argues, and
Coutras, and Iyry, blood flowed like
water that the blood of ST. Barthol-
omew might be forgotten-that blood
which, by the grace of God, Navarro
saw fall from the dice box on the eve of
the massacre. The last of the Nalois
passed to the vaults of st. Denis; and a
greater king, the first of all French
men, alive or dead. the bravest, gayest.
wisest of the land, succeeded him; yet
even he had to fall by the knife, in
moment most unhappy for his country,
before France, horror-stricken, put
away the treachery and evil from her.
Talking with Louis as we rode, it was
not unnatural-nay it was the natural
result of the situation-that l should
avoid one subject. Yet that subject
was the uppermost in my thoughts.

The remedy for these conditions does not
lie in cosmetics. Skin disease is caused by
impurities il the blood, and by nervous
disorders due to weakness and disease of
the distinctly feminine organism. Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is the
greatest of all known blood purifiers. 1t
not only drives all impurities from the life
stream, but fills II with the rich, life-giving
elements of the food. Dr.. Pierce's Favor
lite Prescription acts directly on the delicate
and important organs that bear the burdens
of wifehood and motherhood. 1t makes
them pure, strong, we'll and vigorous. A
course of these two great medicines will
transform weak, sicksy, nervous, despond-
ent woman. who suffers from unsightly
eruptions Of the skin, into healthy happy
amiable companion, with a skin that is
clear and wholesome. These medicines
are made from herbs and roots, and contain
no minerals of any description. They sim
ply assist the natural processes of assimila-
ton, secretion and excretion. Medicine
dealers sell them.
1t is druggists business to give you, not
to tell you, what you want.

"Mexico," said an American resi-
dent of the City Of Mexico to a WASH
ington Post representative, sis under
going crucial test, but it is standing
the ordeal bravely, and in the end will
emerge with the prestige of sustained
credit and greater prosperity than it
has ever enjoyed. 1t has been q hard
matter to keep the ship of state afioat
in these times of extraordinary depres-
sion. A rigid policy of retrenchment
has been pursued. Salaries Of public
officials have been cut, the army de-
creased, and additional taxes imposed
in order to meet the obligations of the
government. There is no system of di-
rect taxation down there, and all the
revenues from imports are collected in
silver. AS silver has deprecated in
value the revenues have corresponding
ly diminished in volume, so that it was
matter Of necessity to increase the
taxes.
'In spite of all these difficulties the
Republic is gaining, and has a splendid
future. The depression in mining is, l
think, blessing in disguise. 1t will
tend to bring out the other great nat
ural resources Of the country. Agri-
culture has never received in Mexico
the attention it deserves. We have as
fine coffee, sugar and tobacco lands as
there are on the globe; and the people
are at last waking up to the Importance
of their cultivation. In this neglected
source Of wealth lies Mexico's fairest
promise of prosperity"

Here is ghost story-one Of q large

likely to be veracious, especially as it
first saw the light in London paper.
Ithas an appearance of strict and even
narrow truthfulness. There was a GER
tain Capt. Blomberg, Of some regiment
unknown, on active service in America.
Five or six of his brother officers, he be-
ing engaged on duty two hundred miles
away, were dining together. The door
was opened and Capt. Blomberg ap.
peared, to everybody's surprise. With
out speaking, he walked in and sat
down in a vacant chair. They all
asked him how he came there.
To their questions he made no reply;
then one of them said: "Blomberg, are
you mad?"
On this he rose and replied: when
you 60 back to London take my son to
the queen and beg her to be his pro-
tector."
This said, he walked out Of the room
as he had come in. A few days after
ward the news came that he had been
killed in action ON the very day and
at the same hour of his appearance.

FOR FRU0,vOROUs FOOD.
DIR. Felix Oswald's Interesting Contribu

DR.. Felix Oswald's Interesting Contribu-
tion to thu Literature Of Food.
DR.. Felix Oswald contributes TO
Health Culture an article in which he
asserts that what are called "canine
teeth" are not canine in any sense or
significance. They correspond, he says,
to the eye teeth in man-instead Of the
eye teeth in man corresponding to them,
it will be noted-and are enormously
developed in several species Of balloons
that would unhesitatingly prefer .
bunch OF wild grapes to porter-house
steak. DR.. Oswald does not believe that
man is q carnivorous animal, and he
terms the idea that man cannot live ON
strict vegetable diet "the meat delu.
sion." He notes again that normal
children have an aversion to flesh food
in its undisguised state, and ridicules
the notion that meat promotes muscle
and conduces to longevity.
The conclusion is drawn from DIR. o.
wald's Investigations "that total alb
stinence from flesh food would pro.
mote the cause of moral as we'll as
physical health" and would contribute
no little to advance "the blessings OF
international peace" and if it would
certainly do either there would be suf'
6cient warrant for organizing q society
or something to popularize the cause
he advocates and persuade people ia
carry his ideas into general effect. The
world will probably 60 very slow, OF
course, in giving up its savory steaks,
''cuts," and such things for an exclu

doctors essay will not be without it,
use nevertheless. If our farmers in
South Carolina will not raise sheep and
cattle in order to supply themselves and
uswith the beef and mutton products
which our souls, SO to speak, SO per
sistently crave, there Is considerable

RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD.

Eaia Dsnido6: . Russian Whoss Wealth
IL Of Recent Creation.
Like the English millionaires, those
Of the cars dominions mostly derive
their revenues from landed property.
While the Briton, however, devotes q
large part Of his gross income toward
improving his possessions and to the
amelioration of the lot of his tenants in
one way or another, the Russian, on
the other hand, extracts every farthing
that he can from his property and
spends it upon himself, the result being
that agriculture in Russia is going
from bad to worse, that formerly fer
tile and productive estates have now
become barren and impoverished, and
that, while the peasantry are in . state
OF misery bordering on famine, the
mobiles themselves have been obliged to
mortgage or sell their lands, and are 1T
the end Of their financial tether. OF
course, there are some exceptions, such
As, for instance, the YousoupOffs, the
Demidoffs and the Scheremetieffs. The
wealth of the Demidoffs is so vast, &C
cording to the New York Tribune, that
it is beyond calculation, and strangely
enough the fortune is Of relatively re-
cent creation, its founder having been

verdure will clothe the fields now de-
xaeed by human toll, and the shaggy
woods will spring anew on the de.

be no filling or harvest, no slsughteT-

has been constructed across Market
street, bearing the motto of the organi-
cation and Inscriptions of welcome.
About $500 delegates arrived by trains

INDIAN SCARE UNCALLED FOR.
General COppiuger Rescinds the Or
der for Troops.

Washington, July 5.-Adjutant Gener-
al Breck has received telegram from
General Coppinger, commanding the de-
partment of the Platte, dated Omaha,
Neb., July 2, in regard to the alleged In
dian troubles at Camas prairie, contain
ing the following interesting details:
Lieutenant Irwin, Fort Hall agent,
wires from HALEY Udaho) that the re-
ports of Indian trouble at Camas prairie
have proved without foundation; that no
more than 40 Indians Lemhis and Sho-
snones), including women and children,
are in that vicinity and have committed
no depredations; that he knows them to
be peaceable Indians, and that no troops
will be needed.
I'm view of the above information
from reliable officers on the spot. have
revoked the order for the movement of
the Fort Robinson squadron to HALEY.
Lieutenant Colonel Randall will be at
the latter place today and assist in
out matters there. The
Lemhi agent wires he has been inform
ed that five of his Indians were, with
their families, absent from the reserva-
ton, and are supposed to be in the vi
entity of Camas prairie, while passing
through deserted villages, entered a
house and tore Innings off the walls, and
may have committed other depredations.
He says he has sent the Indian police in
pursuit with instructions to have the In
dams return the stolen things at once
and to return the Indians to the agency.
he fears no hostile demonstrations and
says these Indians will commit thefts,
but are inoffensive. This seems to be the
basis for the complaints made to the
governor of Idaho.
