He tried the best physicians but without
being benefited and has used several specific
rheumatic cures, but was not helped.
About one year and six months ago he read
In this paper of case somewhat similar to
his which was cured by DIR. Williams Pink
Pills and concluded to try this remedy.
After taking the first box he felt some
what better, and after using three boxes, the
pains entirely disappeared, the dizziness left
him, and he has now for over year been
entirely free from all his former trouble and
enjoys better health than he has had since
his boyhood.
He is loud in his praise of DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People and will gladly
corroborate the above statements. His post
Office address is Lorenzo Medley, Horton,
Jackson County, Michigan.
All the elements necessary to give new
life and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves are contained, in con
densed form, in DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People. All druggists sell them.

THE MAN WHO LIVED.
He should have been dead.
But he wasn't, because

"There's nothing succeeds like success
There is no withstanding the living argu-
men of the man who should be dead, who
isn't dead. but who would be dead, but for
a preserving medicine. That's about the
way 1t seemed to strike Editor Lawrence,
of the Ohio Farmer, Cleveland, Ohio. He
was afflicted with one Of those colds that
have, thousands of times over, eliminated
in consumption, when not promptly cured.
In this condition he met friend a con-

had "helped him wonderfully" II helped
the editor just as wonderfully, giving
almost instant relief" But read his
letter:
about two months ago, I was afflicted
with bad cold, and, meeting a friend, he
advised the use of Ayers Cherry Pectoral
which, he claimed, had helped him Won
derfully. AS he was a consu ptive, whom

Gold from Australia,

San Francisco, Feb. 1.-THE steam
ship Mariposa, from Sydney, Australia,
due here February 10, is reported to
have on board nearly 100000 Austria
liam gold consigned to the Anglo-C Cali
fornia bank, of this city. Added to the
former receipts. this will bring the total
shipments of gold from that source for
this season up to $4,000, 900, by far the
largest amount ever received in Cali

year in settling the balance of trade in

before taking up their home there visited
the country as delegates. They reported
to the Government of the Dominion of
Canada the result of their observations,
and from this report extracts have been
taken, which are published below:
I'VE have visited number of most desir
able locations, and are highly pleased with
the country as a whole, it being beyond our
highest expectations. We find here pros
porous and well-contented lot of people.
They have comfortable homes, and their
vast fields of wheat and other crops in addi-
ton to their herds of choice cattle, indicate
prosperity in the full sense of the word In
conversation with the farmers throughout
our trip we learned that the majority of
them came here with very limited means,
and some with no more than enough to
bring them here, and they are now wefl-to.
do. They all claim that this is the only coun-
try for poor man, or one with'little means,
to get a start and make home for himself
and family. As you are aware, we were a
little shaky and undecided before leaving
Detroit, but have determined since that we,
with our friends, will make this country our
future home. 1t is far from being the wilder
ness we had pictured it to be; it is, instead,
land having all the facilities required by
modern civilization, such as railroads, mar
kets, stores, churches, schools, etc, in fact,
an ideal home for those having the future
welfare of themselves and families at heart
The Messrs. Striovsli selected the Ala
media district, but what they say of it appeals
in general way to most other districts in
that vast country. They speak of the fuel
which is to be had in great quantities, of the
water that can be had by digging from 10 to
20 feet, and of the good grazing land to be
had almost everywhere. There is plenty OF
wood for building timber and for fuel, while
coal is convenient, and sells at low prices AT
the mines. In driving through the country
they passed many fine patches of wild rasp
berries, and say they can speak highly OF
their flavor, as they could not resist the
temptation to stop and eat.

able space, / shall defer further reference to

Chronic Rheumatism.

From the Industrial News, Jackson, Mich.
The subject of this sketch is ffty-six years
Of age, and actively engaged in farming.
When seventeen years old he hurt his
shoulder and few years after commenced
to have rheumatic pains in it.. On taking a
slight cold or the least strain, sometimes
without any apparent cause whatever, the
trouble would start and he would suffer the
most excruciating pains.
He suffered for over thirty years, and the
last decade has suffered so much that he
was unable to do any work. To this the fire.
quent occurrences of dizzy spells were added,
making him almost helpless invalid.

BIRDS EAT 400 SHEEP.
The Feast Took Place 100 Miles From
Dawson and Cost 100000.

The Feast Took Place 100 Miles From
Dawson and Cost 100000.
Jack Collins, who started for Dawson
City with band of sheep last summer,
has been heard from. He sold part of
his flock for $4,000. The other and
biggest half of the flock fed the birds
of the arctic zone. This is how it hap
pened:
He drove the sheep in over the Dali
ton trail. Some time before Dawson
was reached cold weather came on; and
Collins decided to kill his sheep. He
killed and sold 500, and received nearly
100000 for them.
Then he concluded to hold the re-
mainder for better market. He killed
the remaining 400 in sort of secluded
ed the carcasses on poles far enough
above the ground to be out of the reach
of bears, wolves or other wild animals.
He left two young men to watch the
mutton, and proceeded to look for a
mining section. Having found one, he
located claim and proceeded to test
it. After he had dug out few thou
sand dollars worth of gold he thought
he would, as the French say, return
to his muttons."
His stay had been SO prolonged that
the young men had become weary of
holding a wake over the sheep, and,
imagining Dawson to be only few
miles away, had started for that city
to enjoy some of the pleasures met
rOpolitan city can afford. 1t proved to
be about 100 miles to Dawson, so their
absence was more extended than they
had inended, and when Collins reached
the place where he had left the car
casses of 400 sheep he found only 400
bleaching skeletons.
The eagles, ravens, crows, kites,
hawks and other birds of prey which
inhabit that region had been feasting
on mutton. "Where the carcass is,
there will the eagles be gathered" is
a proverb which applies to other birds
of prey. Collins had left so many car
casses that invitations had been sent
out and general roundup of all the
vultures and things in that region, from
Behring sea to the Mackenzie river, had
taken place. Whether the claim Col
Inns secured will make good the loss
OF the mutton or not remains to be seen,
but when he drives in his next band of
sheep the birds of prey will not get
so large percentage of them.-Port-
land Oregonian.

Rev. Anthony Bilkovsky Views the
Accident From the Universalist
Standpoint.

Rev. Anthony Bilkovsky pastor of
the Universalist church, Gullford
avenue, and Ianyale street, Baltimore,
preached Sunday morning upon The
Bourgogne Accident as Seen by Uni
versalist' He said in part: Human
life Is environed by dangers-dangers
to body, to mind, to morals, to the
soul. The accident on the Fourth OF
July on the high seas sent thrill
of horror and dismay through the ma
lions. More lives went down to dis
NAL death than have been lost in any
single battle since the war began.
How can we reconcile such calamities
with our faith in a world governed
and sustained by an allwise, ALLOWING
God? Should there have been a
miraculous interposition of Divine
help? Would our faith hayes been
strengthened by such miracle?
No, we answer, most emphatically
Our faith is strong in Gods benefi-
cience and in His wisdom by beholding
the steadfastness of his ways In the
world. His ways are without variable
ness or shadow of turn; we can rely
upon them. Within the realm Of
| divine activity there is large realm
| Of human activity and human free
dom. The realm Of freedCm-in a
| divinely ordered worlds mans
| sphere. Here is the stage for the play
| of intelligence, affection and con-
| science. The sinking Of the Bour-
| gogne was due to human folly and to
| human wickedness, for the captain
| was almost criminal in his negligence.
| ba ffor If
| fog, how in a moment. in the twink
| ling of an eye, that rolls of darkness
| is transformed into the pail of death
| yet the captain was moving with all
| speed. seventeen or eighteen knots an
| hour. Moreover, the water-tight COM
| partments were not in proper adjust
| ment. Thus he, as a steward was I'M
| faithful. He did not take every pre-
caution to prevent accident.
1T was not Gods indifference to hui
| man wsll-being. but mans folly and
faithlessness that caused the accident
| Man alone is responsible. Our faith In
God is not impugned. The Bible prom
! ises no man heaven az reward OF
| right conduct It promises him a
| noble character. The Bible does not
| urge men to struggle for a future
| heaven. but for righteousness Of life,
| here and now. Fear God and keep the
| commandments IS the whole duty OF
man. Live nctiy. SAYS Christ. Why?
| That you may gain heaven and avoid
| hell? No, that ye may be the children
| of your heavenly Father. Lite is not
