ROOIBATJE: A ROMANCE OF THE TRANSVAAL.

Whenever any country is brought be-
fore public notice by war or wholesale
assassination, the market becomes at
once flooded with all manner of lit
erature on the subject. redolent of local
color and teeming with native phrases.
With the idea of forestalling such a
literary wave, I have written the fol-
lowing thrilling tale of the Transvaal:
The morning sun had scarce voer-
loeped over the raad of the offspanning
veldt awaking the aasvogels from their
nocturnal in-trek, when old Dom Katz-
enjammer appeared at the kloof of his
stead and trekt about his regular morn
ing jaab of feeding and watering the
goodly store of kraals and volkbunds
which were hitched in long spruits
along the wooden walls of his raad-
sheer.
The stemmering clatter Of a hard-rid-
den vreemdeling. which suddenly came
nafeking upon the outer stadt, made
the old man pause and shade his eyes
with his broad brimmed bloemfontein.
AS the oep-shouldered old Reich
lander stood there, rider appeared,
and, 1inging himself from his painting
staatkunde. advanced to meet his host.
"Welcome, Rooibatje" cried Dom
Katzenjammer cordially. "Sit by till
my morgen wal is done and I'll fore
gather with you for breakfast Rest
then on the burgerwacht and glance
over a kopje of the daagli paper. Or If
you are dry, from such long voerloep-
ing, have khan of laager and a dish
of fried uitlanders and rand"
But the Roobatje paid scant stad to
the Ooms hospltable volksraading.

lander, within?" he uited, raadly.
Dom Katzenja usually weld

my daughter Buitenlander is not for
such as you, Rooibatje," he schmeer-
kased, NOR for any other verdommed
Britisher (Engelsmann, l should say)i
She is a Boer madschen and shall wed
none but native born Transvaaler"
NAY, good Dom Katzenjammer,

the madschen. In fact have mash

Grand Future in Store for Manila Un'
der American Rule.

The East is being transformed, and
it is fortunate that we have found a
base, distributing point, for our COM
merce in those vast countries.
1t will not be many years before
Manila will be more important en-
porium than Hong Kong.
One result of the action of Russia
will be that she herself will oppose the
partition of China. Possibly this state
ment may be considered novel and Wis
ionary, but in judging of the future
action of nations we must always take
into account the influence Of their self
interest. BY this alone they are guild
ed. Surely Russia would not be bene-
fitted by the taking of the Yantze VAL
ley by England, and Of Middle China
by Germany, and of Southern China by
France. No conceivable advantage but
only the hottest competition would
result.
If China is to be converted into hos
tile camps we must expect all manner
of restrictions, which would prove in
furious to our trade
If Russia actually anneXes Man

1t is safe to say that the merchants

"AND YET-THEY SCORED. >

The winning foot ball team gazed proud
From out their Pullman heaven
There were three whole ribs in the crowd
Five noses leaned uneven.
One leg lay in plaster shroud,
And the dents in the skulls were seven
Their sweaters, mud from neck to belt,
No frat pins did adorn;
But breastplates of their rivals scalps
Were very meetly worn;
The muscles meath their blackened eyes
Were swelling like popped corn.
The halfback beamed from out his splints,
And rubbed his battered knee;
"Now, by the great st. ELS ghost
We've knocked EN- coldl" quoth he.
They'll tear what hair they've left, | wot
Ger a score so hard to sect"
The captain turned his stiffened neck,
And blinked fishy eye.

Methought l heard him sigh.

He sighed again "And yet" he said

Forsooth, 1t made EN- wild

And yet"-he dropped his muddy head
And hid his war-scarred ears
And yet-they scored the team rose up.

A SHORT LONG STORY

the stomach is weak, and there is no appetite, and
friends begin to whisper "e0nsumptl0n," a great
many people are induced to use foul fish oils or the
modified nastiness of their emulsions. But these
being foods must be digested and assimilated before
they have any value for the body. They do not
deal with the cause of disease but with its effect.
For that reason oils and emulsions do not bring
permanent results.
The reason why DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery does cure so many forms of disease, is be-
cause so many forms of disease begin in "weak
stomach" The stomach is the vital center Of the
body 1t isn't what is eaten but what is assimilated
which sustains life. Nervousness is nerve hunger.
"Golden Medical Discovery" heals the diseased
stomach so that it makes nerve food the nerves are
fed and nervousness ceases When the stomach is
made we'll and strong the appetite comes back nat
urally. When food is eaten and digested and assni
lated the whole body is built up into sound health
Consumption is a wasting disease. There can be
no consumption to a properly nourished body
vGolden Medical Discovery" cures diseases of the
stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition
and so removes the obstruction to the proper nour
ishment of the body in all its parts.

Big guns now being put in place for
