prayers.
The benevolent looking old priest
proved himself man of kindly
thougbtfulness. While the family group
around the baby was getting him prop

that the child shall be naked, the priest

was too cold. Then he stepped behind

steaming, emptied the hot water into

When things are 1.-THE best" they
become 1.-the best selling" Abraham
Hare. a leading druggist of Belleville,
Ohio. writes: Electric Bitters are
the best selling bitters l have handled
in 20 years. You know why? Most
diseases begin in disorders of the
stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels, blood
and nerves. Electric Bitters tones up
the stomach, regulates. the liver, kid
neys and bowels, purifies the blood,
and strengthens the nerves. hence
cures multitudes of maladies. 1t

Too Late.

The British government feels rea-
sonably safe from foreign interference
lust now, hence the saucy manner ia
which it rejects all offers to mediate
between it and its South African vic
tins. With about 100000 men un-
der arms in South Africa. besides the
reserves scattered through her vast
possessions, with her great navy in
tirst-class condition, with plenty OF
money. with the war spirit of her peo-
pie fully aroused, England can afford
to laugh at the powers of continental
Europe. True, Russia may threaten
her Asiatic possessions, and France
NAV talk across the English channel,
but her Afghan allies in Asia can keep
the Russians in check, while her navy
can easily protect her shores from
France. Germany and the remainder
of Europe.
The United States is the only coun-
try which could damage her seriously.
and that only by taking possession of
her American colonies. AS the adj
ministration is in full sympathy with
England. the latter government feels
perfectly secure in its present situa-
ton. The time for interference has
gone by. and the subJugation of the
Beers will soon add another large ter
ritory to the British empire.

Since the cession Porto Rico has
been denied the principal markets she

sovereignty. The markets of Spain
are closed 70 her products except upon
terms to which the commerce of all
nations is subj e-oted The Island o.
Cuba. which used TO buy her cattle and
tobacco without custom duties, now
imposes the same duties upon these
products as from any other country en-
tering her ports. She has therefore.
lost her free intercourse With Spain

benefits IN this market Her coffee was
little known and not ia use By our PEG

How into the treasures of certain uni
versities, but he may not know that
the alumni of those institutions, partic-
ularly the lawyers, have 1t always on
their minds to secure, or at least to
suggest, requests.
One of these men, prominent cor
Soration lawyer of this city, was speak
ing of the custom the other day. He
explained that lawyer and his client
usually sit down to talk over the gen
eral subject of a will. If the client has
more than enough money to meet the
actual needs of his family, he common
ly says something of charitable or edu-
cational institutions, generally in a
vague way, which makes it quite nat
ural for his lawyer to suggest as def
mite object his own alma mater. The
lawyer referred to had himself secured
several requests, one of them for the
sum of 100000. But" said he, smil-
ing, "a young lawyer in my office has
just cut me out Of 100000, which he
put in a will for his own alma mater.
1t was very good stroke on his part,
the more so because our respective uni

twice the usual length-that is, they
reach across the space C, thus keeping
the sashes as safely supported and as
free from racking when moved off the
bed as when they are in place. The
same space accommodates the sashes
of both beds, as the slope permits the
extended parts of the supports to be
one we'll above the other, as the figure
shows.
The space between the beds is not
lost either, for here such things as late
celery, cabbage and cauliflower are
sown, as the sashes are entirely remov-
ed by the time the seedlings require
the head space.
