financial depression, for which reason, 1t is
claimed, II costs more to build a house
than it did last year at this time.
This condition is not denied, and while
it is admitted that building IS more eX
pensiVe than it has been, and also that
rents are no higher and lots but little, if
any, cheaper Yet, in spite of it all, 1t Is
still maintained that there will be a great
deal of building activity during the present
year. People who are Of this way of think
ing say It is well known to those who
familiar with business conditions running
through a series of years that when there
is era of what are known as low rates
there is no market and no business, but
when prices go up business is active.
For this reason and others it is maintain
ed that the coming season Is to be n pros
porous one in spite Of certain circumstances
which would seem to be against it. 1t is
also asserted that the higher prices en-
able employers to pay better wages and
to buy more freely. and In this way also
business is stimulated by what at first
sight seems to be a drawback.

On January 2s, 1899, Mr.. J. ].
P, of Pleasant Unity, Pa, previously
unknown to me, was brought to me
by his uncle suffering from acute
tuberculosis. On physical exami-
nation | found his temperature Io2,
pulse us, rales all over the chest. He
had night sweats, an almost constant
cough and no appetite, and had lost
81 pounds in the preceding six
weeks. | had the sputa examined
by an expert and it showed tubercle
bacilll present in great numbers.
His stomach being weak l pre-
scrlbed one tablespoonful of Tine
ture Anal every four hours; | in
creased the dose after four days to
two tablespoonful five times day
for two weeks. | then prescribed
four tablespoonful three times a day
Immediately after meals.
Alter taking the full dose some two
weeks, the cough was very much bet
ter; night sweats much improved;
but little fever; his appetite good.
On March II the sputa was again
examined, and only small number OF
the tubercle bacilli found.
April IS the sputa again examined.
No tubercle bacilli found; improve
ment in all the symptoms continued.
and he had gained IS pounds.
On June I all the symptoms had
disappeared, he had regained his nor
NAL weight Of $50 pounds, and | dis
charged him as cured.
| have had several letters from him
since his return home. He remains
perfectly we'll and has resumed his
work.

The Doctor Also Said:

Il have now a number OF patients
under treatment, all OF whom are
progressing as favorably as those re-
ported in the last cases.
My experience with the remedy
shows its effect is to make the
tubercule bacilli inactive, gradually,
but surely Graduating them, building
up the system, renewing wasted It's
sues with marvellous rapidity and
without causing any complications
whatsoever.
Il regard it as wonderful discov-
cry as has come to my notice in my
thirty years OF practice.
Have not had an opportunity of
testing this remedy in the treatment
of bronchitis, but | have used it in
asthma with absolutely satisfactory
results.

DESCRIBES SOUTH AFRICA.
Lecture by DIR. HiIder Before National
Geographic Society.

Geographic Society.
DR.. +. F. Hilder of the bureau of eth
nology lectured last evening before the Ma
tional Geographic Society at the First Con-
gregational Church. The talk was upon
South Africa, particularly the Transvaal.
DR.. Hilder spoke Of the geography, the peo-
pie and the past history of the country.
Without expressing an opinion as to the
merits or dement's Of the conflict between
the Beers and England he spoke of the war
and dealt with facts as they exist. The lee
turer referred to a trip from Cape Town
through Laings Mex and past Majuba Hill
into the Transvaal, his description Of the
country being illustrated with stereopticon
views. Port Natal, Durham and Ladysmith,
centers Of public interest. were described
and depicted. L4adysmith, DR.. Hider said,
is without natural defenses.
Johannesburg and Kimberley were next
described. after which the lecturer con-
trasted the two classes OF people In the
TranSvaal, the Beers and the burghers, the
first being without much education, while
the latter are refined and have tendency
toward literature.
Referring to the present war in the Trans
vaal Dr. Hilder said 1t is the result of the
vaciiiating policy of the British government
and is a good lesson for American states
men to learn, now that they are raced with
the proposition of the government OF colo
MES and Of people not Of their own blood.
1t is the result he said, of the difference
of opinion between political parties as to
method and demonstrates one of the weak
nesses of a popular form of government,
which, with its many advantages, has Its
drawbacks. But he said however the pres
ent war may terminate it will mean an i'm
proved condition in South Africa. If the
Beers shall win then a South African re-
public will be formed, and II the English
win It will mean a South African dominion
much the same as Canada 1t will mean
the settling Of the country and the probable
return of a condition Of peace and pros
perity. The Beers themselves, DR.. Hilder
said, will accept the situation gracefully

Those who are in position to form a

that the coming season is to be one of

THE WOLF AND THE BALLOON.

The sleep of the laboring man is
sweet, whether he eat little or much,"
says the proverb.
1t depends upon the condition Of his
Digestion and the character of his last
meal for the day. Observation shows
that certain forms Of dyspepsia are
even more common among laborng
men, meaning those who work Is chief
" Of the hands and are largely out Of
doors, than among the classes who take
life more easily.
whether I ate little or much I felt
blown out like a balloon, and exceed
ingly uncomfortable" says Mr.. w. H.
Johnson. This gentleman is a station
er, doing business at 252k Abercombie
Street, Redfern, Sydney N. S. w.
His ailment was just what he calls 1t
in his statement Of November 10th, 1893
-incpient indigestion. And, too, the
fact is worth noting that he was blown
out with the same substance which
swells balloon-gas; manufactured
by slightly different process.
Taken into the stomach, food must
either digest and pass on its way, or
ferment and create gas and other
products of decomposition. In the lat
ter case we have the condition GOTTEN
complicated) known as indigestion or
dyspepsia. Most Of our complaints arise
from it, or are aggravated by it. 1t Is
subtle as a creeping serpent, and pitt
less as a hungry wolf
If Mr.. Johnson's case, had he not
had a business of his own, and been,
therefore, his own master, he would
have been compelled to lie up,and aban-
don his work. AS matters were. he
humored himself, and lost nothing ex-
cept his enjoyment of good health;
which, he admits, was an item to make
account Of.
After enduring this most disagree
able affection for a time" says Mr..
Johnson, "a confectioner of Annanda1e,
Mr.. Cowling, recommended Mother
Selgel's Syrup, which relieved me i'm
mediately. I thoroughly believe 1t cured
me, and l recommend it to everyone /
know.
whenever l have the least suspicion
that am threatened with an attack OF
indigestion, I take a dose, and it never
fails to ward it off. l am persuaded
that if I had not used Mother Seigel's
Syrup in the beginning l should by this
time have been suffering severely from
this prevalent malady. I trust that the
publications Of my experience may
lead others afflicted with digestive
troubles to use the medicine to which
l am indebted for my own speedy re-
covery."
Mr.. Johnson puts the point clearly
and strongly:-Stop the disease at the
very outset; don't let it assume the
chronic form which. involving more or
less all the organs and functions of the
body, is so hard to cure. Remember
the adage about the ounce Of preven-
ton.

WILCOX THINKS
HE WILL WIN
The Independent Leader
Looks to Other
Islands.

Wilcox is hopeful that he will car
ry the other islands. When interview
ed yesterday about his prospects of be-
ing elected by a representative of this
paper, he said: According to Kalau-
okalanis report, l think | Will carry
Kauai by a majority of at least 300
votes. Prior to Kalauokalanis visit to
Kauai Prince David had Il strong hold
in that island. Seeing this, Kalauoka-
lani stayed there two weeks, returning
to Honolulu last Sunday, and worked
hard for me and the party. kalauoka-
lani feels certain that l will carry the
Garden Isle. AS for Maui and Molokai
| expect to have a majority of 800 votes
This is the impression l have since my
last campaign on those Islands. If my
calculation is correct | think / will poll
tWo-thirds of the votes at the leper
settlement. | am depending also on
the way that kaiue, one of our Sena-
torial candidates is polling on Maui
The Home Rule party was very strong
at the lcper' settlement when | was
there the last time. AS for Hawaii l
am in hopes, although 1t is Parkers
birthplace that l win poll n majority
oY 200 or 800 votes over him, Hilo l be-
lieye is divided between me and Prince
David but in the Kona districts and
other places | am very strong"

Natures Provision For Man.

When Nature designed man she pro-
vided ample things for his preserva-
ton. Man was intended to live and be
healthy on vegetation; that was the
natural way. The only way to be
healthy or to regain lost health Is by
using natures remedy and great blood
purifer-Kickapoo Indian Sagwa. This
is the great Indian remedy, taken d.
rect from natures unerring laboratory.
1t is made Of simple herbs, roots and
barks, and always acts naturally. 1t
searches out the disease; finds the
cause Of it; Stays it, and restores the
body to normally healthy condition.
If your liver is sluggish, II you feel
dull, drowsy, or inactive; If your heart
doesn't pump right, palpitates, thumps,
sometimes vigorously; and sometimes
family; If your bowels are inactive, or
overactive; If your stomach fails you;
If your kidneys fail to act naturally:
there is still help for you If you will
take Kickapoo Indian Sagwa. You
must act quickly. Disease Is progress
i've; you must stop it at once. Kickapoo
Indian Sagwa will do it. Hebron Drug

DAVID TALKS
OF ELECTION
Thinks He Is Solid With
Lepers on Molokai
Island.

When Prince David was interviewed
as to his prospects on the other islands,
he said: II did not count much on this
island, but l expect to run high on the
other islands. From the appearance of
things on Kauai there was a sufficient
evidence that / would poll strongly
there. AS for Waikiki l am afraid
that Wilcox will carry the majority.
But at the leper settlement everything
was favorable to me during my last
visit.
"On Hawaii there was evidence that
l would poll high in kona and other
places"
j. f. Bush said: when l was on
Kauai, Hanapepe, Koloa and Waimea
were strong Independent districts.
thought, however, that Prince David
would poll three-fourths of the vote
there, but judging from the present
outcome here l think my estimate is
not correct. ! think Wilcox may carry
Kauai with a majority of $50 or SOC
votes"

Lipton's Pork Deal,

CHICAGO, Oct. 31.-The elimination oil
the October pork corner, controlled by
Sir Thomas Upton, came today wher
pork for delivery this month advanced 50
rising on less than dozen trades from
s7, yesterdays closing price, to $40 al
the close today.
The buying was by shorts who had helc
off until the last moment 1t was sale
that Sir Thomas could have made thu
price 500 as well as 800 but he declared
he had no intention of Squeezing any
body. That the October deal did not fur
nish greater excitement today was due i
is said, to the fact that many shorts
threatened with being swept off the board
were previously allowed to fix up thei
| deals with Upton privately.
