A BASELESS RUM0R
No War on China Observation-Disclosures
and England Not Invited to Retire.

London, August 27.-There is abso-
llutely no truth in the dispatch from
che Foo, of August oath, saying it
was rumored there "on good authori-

had declared war on China and had
invited Great Britain and the United

tional government" of protecting for
Ieigners and Christians, and of protect
ing the powers against anti-forelgn
fanatics.
The immediate effect of the move

Europeans. Proof exists of disorder
and pillage due to the same movement

The liability to disease is greatly
lessened when the blood is in good con-

vigorous. For then all refuse matter
is promptly carried out of the system ;
otherwise it would rapidly accumulate
fermentation would take place, the
blood become polluted and the consti-
tuition so weakened that a simple
malady might result seriously.
A healthy, active circulation means
good digestion and strong, healthy
