FEW KNOW ABOUT THE SHAKERS
AN INTERESTING, GOD FEARING
PEOPLE WHO HAVE GIVEN THE
WORLD MANY IMPORTANT
DISCOVERIES.

We may not accept their peculiar
religious beliefs nor can we enter into
the spirit of their sacrifices. 1t is not
necessary to believe as they do, but we
can and do respect their sincerity of
purpose and the honor and uprightness
which marks all their business deal
ings.
The Shakers have always boon sue
cessful inventors, and some OF the
greatest of the convenience of the
present day found origin in their set
thement.
In one particular they excel all other
meD or classes of men, and that is in
cultivation of medicinal herbs and
plants and their preparation for use.
They have made it study for more
than one hundred years. 1t is one of
their peculiar industries, Their lives
have been devoted to it.
Their latest and greatest achieve
ment is the Shaker Digestive Cordial
1t is not offered as a cure for all dis
eases. 1t does not pretend to be, but
one disease 1t will cure, and that is
Indigestion.
Sufferers who resort to its use have
not long to wait TO see the result,
The effect is almost Immediate. The
first dose usually gives relief and If
continued permanent cure will fol-
low.
1t not only contains already digest
ed food, but it digests food as we'll,
thus tonIng up the general system.
An interesting pamphlet is now being
issued by the Shakers and can be had
for the asking at almost any drug
store.
Try twenty-five cent bottle of DI.

do for you,

ON A BUST OF. DANTE.

See from this counterfeit of him
Whom Arno shall remember long
How ster2 of linsament, how grim,
The father was of Tuscan songl
There but the burning sense of wrong
Perpetual care and scorn abide;
Small friendship for the lordly throng;
Distrust of all the world beside.
Faithful if this wan image he,
No dream his life was-but fighti
Could any Beatrice see
A lover in that anchoriteP
To that cold Ghibelline's gloomy sight,
Who could have guessed the visions came
OF beauty, yelled with heavenly light,
In circles of eternal flame?
The lips as CumG's cavern close,
The cheeks with fast and sorrow thin,
The rigid front, almost morose,
But for the patient hope within,
Declare a life whose course hath been
Unsullied still, though still severe,
Which, through the wavering days of sin,
Kept itself icy chaste and clear.
Not wholly such his haggard look
When wandering once, forlorn, he strayed,
With no companion save his book,
To Corvo's hushed monastic shade.
There, as the Benedictine laid
His palm upon the converts guest,
The single boon for which he prayed
Was peace, that pilgrims one request.
Peace dwells not here. This rugged face
Betrays no spirit of repose.
The sullen warrior sole we trace
The marble man of many woes.
Such was his mien when first arose
The thought of that strange tale divine,
When hell he peopled with his foes,
Dread sceurge of many guilty line.
War to the last he waged with all
The tyrant cankerworms of earth.
Baron and duke, in hold or hall,
Cursed the dark hour that gave him
birth.
He used Romeo's harlot for his mirth,
Plucked bare hypocrisy and crime,
But valiant souls of knightly worth
Transmitted to the rolls of time.
Time, whose verdicts mock our own,
The only righteous judge art thoul
That poor, old exile, sad and lone,
Is Latium's other Virgil now
Before his name to nations bow.
His words are parcels of mankind,
Deep in whose hearts, as on his brow,
The marks have sunk of Dantes mind.

FOREIGN NOTES OF INTEREST.

To what an extent the soi-disant
Count Leontietf, who served as Prince
Henris second in the Turin Orleans
duel the other day, is looked upon as
an adventurer by the cars government
is shown by the fact that in spite of the
services which he has undeniably rem
dered to the Muscovite cause in Abys-
sinia it is not he, but Colonel Vlaasoff,
now consul general at Meshed, in Per
STA, who has just been gazetted as Rus
sian minister TO the court Of the Negus.
The colonel is to take up his place
there in October.

Not only the municipality Of Berlin,
but also the faculty Of the university of
the metropolis, has from time i'm
memorial displayed tendency to re-
sent the disposition to despotism and
arbitrariness which is so characteristic
of the reigning house of Prussia. It is
therefore i'll keeping with its traditions
that the Berlin university has just
elected as its rector for the coming
academical year Professor Schneider,
who has recently incurred the wrath Of
Emperor William by the sooialistic
leanings which he displayed in his lee
lures while occupying the chair of po-
litical economy.

When parliament meets again in
England, attention is to be drawn to
the Unprecedented manner in which pli-
vate kilograms have been seized and
made public during the recent South
African investigation at Westminster
There was so much protest raised in
parliament years ago when Mazzini's
correspondence was opened and exam
ined by the authorities that it seems
strange that so many weeks should have
been allowed to elapse before anything
was heard about the violation by the
government of private telegraphic cor
respondence In England the telegraphs
belong to the state and are under the

1t is not often that the principal law
officer of a government, while acknowl-
edging the existence of a statute, pub
licly and officially declares in parlia-
ment that be does not propose to take
any steps to enforce it. Yet this is pre-
cisely what the attorney general of Eng
land has done. In response to ques-
ton evoked by the increasing number
of Roman Catholic ecclesiastical pro-
cessions through public streets and thor
oughfares he admitted that they were
expressly forbidden by law, but added
that he had just as little intention of
taking any steps to enforce the statute
as he had of enforcing the act of 1851
against the assumption of the names of
English cities, towns and places as
titles for Roman Catholic bishops.

In Indiana Field Reduced Almost to the
Point OF Collapse by Waste.
KoKoMo, IND, Dec. 6.-State Natural
Gas Supervisor j. c. Leach, of this city,
is now completing his annual report,
and will submit it about January 1.
The figures given by the State Super
visor will show the greatly weakened
condition of the Indiana natural gas
field, as result of waste. Recent
measurements and tests by Prof. Leach
in all parts of the field show an aver
age decrease in rock pressure of more
than twenty-five pounds to the inch
since the official tests were made year
ago. The original pressure, when gas
was first developed eleven years ago,
was 325 pounds. This has been gradu-
ally diminishing each year, until now
the pressure is but 210 pounds, figure
barely above the point that means
total collapse. Experts contend that
when the pressure gets as low as 200
pounds it can not break through the
volume of water that envelops it.
