The Cincinnati Commercial Tribune
speaking of the position taken by Sen
ator S. B. Elkins on the Nicaraguan
Canal, says, "Of course, Senator Ell
kins was not disciple at the feet OF
the greatest of Americans, James G.
Blaine, to no purpose. His broad
and elevated Americanism crops out
in his every utterance. All that be
says and suggests is in heartily accord
with the views of the best people al

ment of balance due on new building
erected in Fifth ward. Owing to a
decrease of nearly $2S, 900 in the as
sessed valuation of property as certi-
fed by the assessor and to the neces-
sity of employing one and possibly
two additional teachers, we recon-
mend that the levy for the ensuing

ABBAs PASTA, KHED1vE OF EGYPT.

British, but without result, and things
appeared to be settling down when the
expected visit Of the German emperor
seemed to afford a good opportunity of
raising the question.
This last act appears to have deter
mined the British government to bring
matters to an issue by the dethronement
Of the khedive and putting his younger
brother, Mohammed Ali, in his place. A
precedent for such a proceeding would
be found in the action of England and
France at the time they exercised a joint
control in Egypt, when they dethroned
his grandfather, the Khedive Ismail, for
obstructing the execution of their de-
cisions. The unwilIingness which the
young khedive has frequently manifest
ed to conform to the intentions of the
British government and his disposition
to regard himself as legitimately sub
ject to the limited suzerainty Of the sui
tan only have, it is now said, decided
the British government to tolerate his
obstruotiveness no longer. 1t is proposed
that be should be relieved of his respon-
sibilities and be retired on a handsome
pension, and it is believed that early ef-
feet will be given to this intention un-
less he submits himself unreservedly to
the British control. New York Sun.

II is pretty hard to realize that some
Of the things that now annoy us dread

1t is a great satisfaction to some peo-
pie, when they can't have things their

people.
The nan who knows enough to come
in when it rains is not the one who goes
about without an umbrella in cloudy
weather.
If other people did not make SO mary
mistakes, we should have more time to
attend to our own affairs.
We are always glad when our friends
do something foolish, as it not only
gives us an opportunity to tender them
good advice, but abstracts their atten-
ton from our foolishness.
1t is a great source of wonder to most
of us how some people are able to live

England, Tired of His Conduct, May
Promote His Younger Brother.
1t is beginning to be rumored that the
British government is contemplating a
step that will bring this Egyptian ques-
tion to a head, The general conduct of
the young khedive, Abbas, in his rela-
tons to his British advisers and the at.
tention he has given to counsels coming
from other quarters have been on sew
eral occasions the source Of much dis
satisfaction to the British government.
Matters, however, reached a climax
when it became known to Lord Cromer
that it was intended to organize an anti
British demonstration on the occasion Of
the proposed visit of the German en-
peror to Egypt. This discovery became
at once the subject of diplomatic dis
cussion between the Berlin and London
foreign offices, and the result was the
REIMBURSEMENT by tho Emperor William
Of his intended tour up the Nile.
The khedive is known to be impatient
of British tutelage. He has so expressed
himself during visits to Constantinople
and the continental capitals, but did not
receive an the encouragement wished
for. During the past winter an emissary
was sent through Europe with the OBJ
ject of interesting public sentiment in
favor of the evacuation Of Egypt by the

Two Pointed Questions Answered.

What is the use of making a better
article than your competitor if you can
not get a better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in the
price the public will buy only the better,
so that while our profits may be smaller
On a single sale they will be much great
er in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought promi-
nently before the public both are certain
to be tried and the public Will very
quickly pass Judgment on them and use
only the better one.

a leak had sprung in that great embark
ment which saves Holland from the devas-
tations of the hungry sea. 1t was early in
the night, and no one was near at hand.
The leak was small when he found il, but
he knew that the action of the water would
enlarge it long before morning, and wash
away the entire embankment, inundate the
country and destroy his own and thou
sands of homes. So he bravely put his
finger in the crevasse, and kept it there all
the long night through, until help came and
the opening was properly stopped. He had
saved his country.
Equally insignificant is the entrance of
disease into the human system. The be.
%ginnings of the most terrible ailments are
so small they can be easily stopped at the
start. Your health is a dixie which keeps
out and stops the inroads of dangerous and
devastating disease. Whenever it breaks
down, no matter how slightly, there is an
opening for disease to enter. If the OPEN
ing is not watched, it will grow larger,
until the sweep of disease overwhelms
you, and health and perhaps life is de-
stroyed forever.
Fortify your health with DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, and you can
defy i'll health. You can make your health
SO strong a bulwark that disease cannot
find a crevice through which it can creep.

vent greater and more seriou troubles.
