BRYAN's ATTACK ON THE ARMY.
New York Sun.l

i
In his speech to the Iowa democrats
at Des Moines Mr.. William j. Bryan
made one remarkable statement which
has not received quite as much atten-
ton as 1t deserves. It IL this:
"a republic needs an army OF $4,000
for 70,0O0,O0O people. An empire needs
four times that large an army when
10, 100000 population is added. This
suits the young men who get fat jobs
in the army, but not the people who
pay the $500 year needed to main
tain each soldier in the Philippines.
The young men thus mentioned as
getting what Mr.. Bryan calls fat Jobs
in the army are second heutenants and
first lieutenants and captains whose
pay is so meagre that the suggestion Of
fairness about 1t would make a horse
laugh. 1t would be far more just to ac-
cuse Mr.. Bryan himself OF having
sought a commission In the United
States volunteers during the Cuban war
tanning to the short-lived colonelcy he
held.
| AS Mr.. Richard Croker has lately
pointed out, William j. Bryan is man
OF Intelligence. He knows perfectly
well that there are no young or old men
who get fat jobs in the army" He Is
fully aware of the fact that the life OF
an officer in the military service Of the
United States must needs be at all
times life OF frugality and self
denial. This knowledge, however, does
not restrain him from incorporating
their position. Though only recently
mustered out of the service himself, he
eagerly ISLANDERS every young officer re-
naming in it for the sake of promoting
his intense ambition to become presi-
dent. and as such, the commander-in-
chief of the army Of the United States.

ton.

rashness.
side-g lancing eyes are always to be
distrusted.
Brown eyes are said by oculists to be
the strongest.
Small eyes are commonly supposed to
Indicate cunning.
The downcast eye has in all ages
been typical of modesty.
The proper distance between the eyes
is the width of one eye.
People of the melancholic tempera-
ment rarely have clear blue eyes.
Eyes with long sharp corners indi-
cate great discernment and penetration
The white of the eye showing beneath
the iris is indicative OF nobility OF
character.

more of the pupil the indication is Of
cool elaboration.
Unsteady eyes, rapidly jerking from
side to side, are frequently indicative of
an unsettled mind.
| Gray eyes turning green in anger or
excitement are indicative OF a choleric
temperament.
| An eye the upper lid of which passes
horizontally across the pupil indicates
mental ability.
| 1t is said that the prevailing colors of
eyes among patients Of lunatlc asylums
are brown and black.

ANOTHER WAR THREATENED.

ANOTHER WAR THREATENED.
England is on the very Verge of a war
with the Boer republic of South Africa
An overt act, like that of the destruc-
ton of the Maine, would precipitate a
crisis. The vital point in the questions
to be settled between England and the
Beers is that of Great Britains suze-
rainty or sovereignty over the province
lures in the long drawn out contention
between them have been more promi-
nent. Years ago the Beers, or Dutch
settlers in South Africa, moved out OF
the British territory Of Cape Colony
and, settling on the northern border, es-
tablished the republic over which Pres
are prolific race and multiplied rap
idly. They now number about 100000.
They outnumbers the English residents
in South Africa. The development of the
gold fields in the Transyaal made their
territory valuable and many English
went into that region; but the Beers
held the reins of government and re-
fused to let the English share in it. This
has been the chief cause of complaint
and the question of conceding citizen
ship has been widely discussed. Presi-
dent Kruger has been willing to grant
liberal concessions in the matter of suf-
frage if England would agree to arbitra.
ton in other questions. England refuses
to consider the question of sovereignt,

themselves British territory.
The latest reply of Kruger indicates
that the Beers are willing TO grant citi-
zens' rights on condition the BRITISH
government formally acknowledges thai

recognizing the British right to inter
fere in internal affairs in the Trans
vaal, and further that England aban.

cipitates a war that the Beers are win

INCREASED PRICE OF MEATS.

INCREASED PRICE OF MEATS.
The rise in the price of meats in the
large cities of the east is attracting the
notice of the people. The National Pro-
gradual and is due entirely to causes
over which the packer himself has no
control. 1t has been the commercial re-
suit Of the gradual rise in the price of
live stock; and this enhancing of the
value of the herd has been brought
about by the general shortage of live
stock for slaughter purposes, and the
increased cost of producing hand (stail-
fed) beef, because of the shortage of
feed and the increased cost of getting
it, The Provisioner argues that IF the
past prices of meat We're right the pres
ent prices are so, since they are calcu-
lated on the same basis" The price of
cattle has been creeping up for two
years in proportion to the shortage of
stock and the expensive food and
weather conditions for producing mar
ketable beef.
There is another valid reason urged
for the increased prices of meats, and
that is increased consumption as re-
suit of the greater ability Of people tc
buy during this prosperous period
Matthew Marshall, in the New York
Sun, in the course Of long article
says:

THE OLD WAY
Of Treating Dyspepsia and Indiges-
ton by Dieting Dangerous
and Useless One.

We say the old way, but really it Is a
very common one at present time and
many dyspeptics and physicians as well
consider the first step to take in attempt
ing to cure indigestion is TO diet, either
by selecting certain foods and rejecting
others or to greatly diminish the quantity
usually taken, In other words, the star
walton plan is by many supposed to be
the first essential.
The almost certain failure of the star
walton cure for dyspepsia has been proven
time and again, but still the moment dys-
pepSia makes its appearance a course Of
dieting is at once advised.
All this is radically wrong. 1t is foolish
and unscientific to recommend dieting or
starvation to man suffering from dys-
pepsia, because indigestion itself starves
every organ and every nerve and every
fiber in the body.
What the dySpeptic wants Is abundant
nutrition, which means plenty of good,
wholesome, well-cooked food and some
thing to assist the weak stomach to digest
it. This Is exactly the purpose for which
Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets are adapted
and this is the method by which they cure
the worst cases Of dyspepsia, in other
words the patient eats plenty of whole
some food and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
digest it for him. In this way the system
is nourished and the overworked stomach
rested, because the tablets will digest the
food whether the stomach works or not.
One of these tablets will digest 5000
grains of meat or eggs.
Your druggist will tell you that Stuart 8
Dyspepsia Tablets is the purest and safest
remedy for stomach troubles and every
trial makes one more friend for this ex-
cellent preparation. Sold at Scots. for
full sized package at all drug stores.

which is ever conferred on Catholic -cler-
eyp4ea outside the city of Rome \ few
years ago Mgr. Stephan was made prI-

Mgr. Stephan is made q priest, and that
Of the highest rank outside of the epis-
copacy. The dignity carries with it many

solemn functions.
This distinguished honor has been con-
ferred by the pope on Mgr. Stephan in
recognition of his Jealous services in pro-
noting Catholic interests among the IN
