Probably few people know that there
is choice side to every cemetery
Thus, in some parts of the world, the
eastern portion, without regard to its
situation, is always deemed the most
desirable. This preference arises from
the old tradition that our Lord will ap.
pear from the east. 1t is also believed
that the dead in the eastern portion
will be the first to rise; then those in
the southern, western and northern, in
order. In England it was once the GUS
tom TO bury felons and other bosl char
acters on the north side of the church
The custom of laying the dead in a
certain direction is responsible for the
Welsh designation for the east wind

NO DIFFERENCE OF OPINION.
Tho Members of the Cabinet All In Hearty
Accord with the President on
Cuban Matters.

WAsHrSeroS, March 3o.-At the close
Of the cabinet meeting Secretary Alger
gave out the following statement:
so far as there being any difference
of opinion among members of the cab
met they are all in hearty accord with
the president. When he read to them
his message on the Maine there was not
dissenting voice nor suggestion
of change. 1t commanded the ap-
proval of every member. How could
the president have said more? lie gave
congress the report at once, and stated
that he had forwarded it to Spain and
is awaiting her reply. He must take
one step at a time. 1t may be
said, further, that there need
be no fear that he will not
take the next. He has not lost
. moment in presenting not only the
Maine incident, but the whole situa-
ton, to Spain. The country can well
afford to await the result of the ne
gotiations, which will be promptly
be made known, whatever the result.

beware of OintmentS for Catnrrh
That Contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense OF
smell and completely derange the whole sys

surfaces. Such articles should never be
used except on prescriptions from reputable
physicians, as the damage they will do is
derive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F.J. Cheney & Co., Toledo
