caught and towed ashore little pits or
raves are dug in the carcass, and in
these beds of decomposing blubber the
patient lies for an hour or two, repeating
the process as long as the whale or his
rheumatism lasts.
Another daring method of treating
rheumatism is to make the patient walk
barefoOted on dewy grass every morning
and evening; while a more agreeable cure
is that of sunbathing: in which the victim
spends a certain time each day basking
or exercising in the sun in a state fam
iliar to Adam.
One of the latest and most effective
methods of curing a cold is the homeo-
pathic one of applying ice to the spinal
column, a striking variation from the
more ordinary plan of roasting your
cold' before a hot fire.
A successful method Of relieving bad or

When arranging programmes for his
concert tours, Sousa gives them most
careful consideration, weighing closely
the predictions of the public OF the vari-
Gus parts of the country which he will
enter. To successfully and adequately
meet the needs of every quarter is a mat
ter that requires skill and
tact, and a thorough knowledge of the
country at large and by divisions. What
will best please the people of Kansas or
Nevada may not do SO we'll in Massa-
chusetts or Louisiana. and the latter
commemorative are quite unlike in eXac-
tons. Therefore. Sousa must exercise
supreme tact in giving to each and every
other section that which is most desired.
That he never fails to present just what
the public Of any division Of the country
likes best of all is evidenced by the fact
that his band concerts are as alluring in

TRIUMPHS,

\ correspondent of a Boston paper calls
attention to the similarity of conditions in
Hayti and the Philippines and the fail
ure of England and France to conquer the
Haitians. Both have a tropical climate,
deadly to the white races the great diff
ference being that the Philippines are
o four times as large as Haiti. The
English, says the correspondent, in 1893
after losing 800, 900, 900 in expenses and
45 900 lives. The first Napoleon then I'M
dertoOk to acquire control. In February,
1902, he landed 90, 900 French veterans in
Haiti, and in the fall of that year he sent
10, 1000 more. The French speedily overran
the island, but were in turn conquered by
the climate. In 1903 Napoleon abandon
ed the island, after having lost three
fourths of his troops. The strongest
naval power in the world and the strong
est military power were thus successfully
beaten-not so much by the Haitians as
by the Innate.

LARGE AMOUNTS OF GOLD

Would Rather Have Bills
Than Metallic Money
LARGE AMOUNTS OF GOLD

Washington, March 25.-United States
impression that the lack Of paper money
is due to enforced Withdrawals OF notes
by the treasury is not true.
''The total circulation per capita in the
country. including coin and paper said
Mr.. Roberts, has increased from $3.50
March /, 1898, to $25.51 March l. 1899. This
increase has been progressive for several
wears. The increase has, 1t is true. been
largely in gold coin, from $445 ,293.591
March 1, 1896. to $702.3 1853 at the first OF
the current month. You will observe that
the growth of gold coin has been $2o'.-
OH, 67S, but in total circulation for that
period the growth has been $500. 100. 500,
showing a net increase of SLAB OSS,SI7 out
side of gold coin. There has been an in
crease within these years in every item
Of circulation except gold certificates.
treasury notes and currency certificates.
The treasury notes in the hand of the
people are more than in 1896 by $6o,S o4 80,
the United States notes more by $751;
SAG, >25. and the national bank notes more
by $50, 724,3 44. The gold bullion in the
treasury ran up from $2b,S2l.4S4 March
J.. 1896, to $127 ,3S5, 06T March l, 1899. There
does not seem to Ire to be a deficiency IN
the circulating medium. .
The abundance of gold coin does not
give relief. because Of the prejudice of
bankers and their customers against its
use. A. a remedy, the national banks
