EASE AND DISEASE
A Short Lesson on the Meaning of Familiar
Word.

Disease is the opposite of ease.
Webster defines disease as lack of
ease, uneasiness, trouble, vexation,
disquiet." 1t is a condition due to
some arrangement of the physical
organism. A vast majority of the
disease" from which people suffer
is due to impure blood. Disease of
this kind is cured by Hoods Sarsa-
parilla which purifes, enriches and
vitalizes the blood. Hoods Sarsa-
parilla cures scrofula, salt rheun,
pimples and all eruptions. 1t tones
the stomach and creates a good APP
petite, and it gives vigor and vitality
to the whole body. 1t reverses the
condition of things, giving health,
ease"

You need not go to Numidia to get
many lions. You all have them after
you-the lion OF financial distress, the
lion of sickness. the lion of persecu-
ton. You saw that lion Of financial

earth, and he roared until all the

quaked. With his nostril he scattered
the ashes on the domestic hearth You
have had trial after trial, misfortune
after misfortune, lion after lion, and
yet they have never hurt you. The
Persians used to think that spring

turn into pearls, and l have to tell
you that the tears of sorrow turn into

Even death, that monster lion, whose

to set the honors Of knighthood, he
was compelled 70 go fully armed the
night before among the tombs Of the
dead, carrying a sort OF spear, and
then when the day broke he would
come forth, and amid the sound Of
cornet and great parade, he would get
the honors OF knighthood. And so it
will be with the Christian in the night
before heaven, as, fully armed with

will take the honors of heaven amid
that great throng with snowy robes,

taken to the Erie depot, no officers
being in sight, and, after being held
there for two hours, they were COM
PEELED to buy tickets to Gallon. In
the meantime another elder, who re-
fused to give his name, was also
brought in by a citizen and deported
on the same train. Both were
kicked and cuffed by the crowd, which
numbered several hundred, before the

Like Murders and Nameiess Atrocities
In South Africa.

New York, Nov. G.--Arthur Lynch
of the Boer army, who is now at tne
Manhattan hotel. has sent a letter to
the New York Sun in which he says:
I'VE are informed by the English
press that wherever the Beers, in
course Of their legitimate operations,
have destroyed portions Of the rail
way lines, the English troops have
burned al the adjacent villages and
farms. We read from the same source
that Boer women have been deported
from Jagarsfontein and imprisoned a
few miles cut OF the city, and that all
Beers over II years OF age living be-
yond a limit Of ten miles from Bloem-
fontein are being surrounded and
brought into the city. Remember that
on the African veldt the burning of q
Boer farm means not merely that ex-
absolute ruin and prospective starva-
ton TO the whole family. 1t means
the alternative. to the Beer Of betray-
ing his country or facing death by
the bullet for himself, disgrace for his
women folk, hunger leading to death
for his children. And remember also
that it is from the English press,
which has been feeding the public for
the last two years on falsehoods and
calumnies against the Beers, that we
are permitted to gain even this glipmse
Of the horrors Of South Africa. What
must the reality be?
II read that the report Is denied that
Lord Salisbury has consented to the
release of the American prisoners OF
war who fought for the Beers. This is
doubly regrettable, as according to a
letter which l have received from Cey-
Ion, several prisoners have died there.
The question of American intervention
has again and again been mooted 1t
is quite feasible for the government of
the United States to take action in
this matter on the basis of the resolu-
tions Of The Hague conference, and
humanity calls for something more
than a mere perfunctory fulfillment of
the form of proffered mediation. The
objection that the United States has
no concern in South Africa Is both
cowardly and unjust, l have pointed
out in various quarters the great and
growing trade which existed between
America and the republics Of South
Africa, and while the stars and stripes
now float in so many parts Of the
world remote from America, it is not
consistent with the dignity Of this
country to allow her industries to be
ousted from South Africa as the con-
sequence of war of British conquest.
1T needs that the American people
should demand the cessation OF these
Weyler-iike murders and nameless
atrocities in South Africa, and that in
their wrath they shall make the moral
power in America felt throughout the
world in declaring in tones which
brock no denial that this cursed thing
shall no logger offend the senses of
man."

wholesale illumination OF the houses

these things are plainly less congen-

century than they were in its middle

the civil war. They are essentially
childish, and the nation is discarding
them as it grows older. Instead OF

the reason Is evide, tly growing. The
masses still go to "see a free show"
in fact, they go in greater numbers

communication render the gathering
of vast crowds easier, but they regard
it only in the light of performance.

but toad. They were brought to
Jamaica from Barbados under the
impression that they would kill rats.
This was found to be a mistake, and
the toad remained and is now quite
common. They are Of dark brown
color, with body the size of large
bullfrog, but with short legs like a
toad, and are not edible. Like all

variety, living on fish or an occasional
native who is unwary. 1t is also not
so sluggish as other varieties, and is
peculiar in having no sleeping time.

Some insects, which had repeatedly
stung men suffering from tertian
fever, were sent from Rome to Lon
don, and there allowed to sting the
son Of DR.. Manson, who had never had
malaria. The young man so bitten
soon developed typical attack of ter

Eleven Dead. Not Thirty-Two as at
First Reported.
Philippi, w. Va, Nov. 6.-The explo-
sion at the Southern Coal and Trans
portation company's coal mines at Ber-
rysburg, six miles from here, brought
sorrow to many homes. The explosion,
heard for fully dozen miles around,
was the signal that alarmed the neigh
borhood and caused hundreds of people
to hurry to the scene to see what had
happened. The sight appalled, them.
1t is impossible to tell yet accurately
how many are lost. This cannot be
done until roll call can be taken. Men
are busy now removing the dead from
the mines, and as the work is extreme
ly dangerous it is consequently very
slow. The dead: Andrew Blackwell,
Albert Brown, Lawrence Duncan, Ollie
Franks, Joseph Jackson, Richard
Johnston, Lewis Pack, Adam Peck,
Ivan Petroch, John Poznauski, Walter
Walenski. The explosion was not OF
gas, but was caused by dynamite.
There had been fall of top rock in

had been prepared and one OF these
