Peasant Treatment of Disease

In pamphlet on the superstitions
and medical practices of the Bernese
peasantry DR.. Zahler, himself a ma
tive of the Bernese Oberland, states
that the belief in witchcraft is slow
ly yielding to education. The med
ical literature consists of ancient
manuscript family prescription
books and printed volumes distributed
by peddlers. The older the prescrip-
ton the greater the credit. The
peasant nowadays, while carefully
conceanng his ancient beliefs, is yet,
when disease affects him, inclined to
revert to the old charms and RENE
dies. DIR. Zahler attributes such eff
cacy as they possess to what is now
called Suggestion" but admits the
part played by the use of herbs in all
primitive medicine

did intend going out and sinking that
first expedition from Canada. to South
Africa, but thought it better to wait a
little. We can mobilize our men with
out much difficulty for an attack on
Canada, and we are farely well armed
AS we'll as the United States troops
in, the Spanish war. We have either
regiments or companies all~over the
United States and are fairly we'll
drilled and a great many of our men
are in the militia. If it is decided to
attack Canada we shall do all in our
power to keep matters so secret as not
to embarrass the government. until we
are actually on the border. The
French population Of Canada would
be with us and there are q number Of
our own countrymen ready to- well
come us. Canada would be an easy
mark. We would have the Canadian
loyalists on a run in a week."

New York, Dec. 3O.-A special to the
World from Ottawa says: One grave
result of the war in South Africa to
Canada is the arousing Of all the lat
ent hostility to British rule among the
French Canadians. Recent illusions
4, of hostility to France have developed
the French Canadians hostility. The
dream of the great majority Of
French Canadians is not only a new
France on the banks Of the st. Law
renee, but another independent, state
on the continent of America. So deep
ly imbued are the French Canadian
population with the idea Of the indie
penderce of this country that not a
few consider the time ripe now for it.
This idea is expressed in Il recent let
ter from D. Monet, NJ. p. to the press
Of Montreal. He writes:
II do not wish to spend II cent to
bind any closer the bonds-except the
commercial bonds.which unite us to
Great Britain. We have almost moth
ing in common with the old continent.
1 am a Canadian and my ideal is to sec
Canada take rank among the indie
pendent nations as soon as it will be
sufficiently developed by the vitality
Of it's population and the immensely OF
Its natural resources"
Nj. MoEet, as we'll as Mr.. Bourassa,
NJ. p, who has already acted upon his
protest against aiding Great Britain
by resignihg his seat in parliament, is
among the ablest of the members Of
the commons from Quebec. And now,
another French member OF parliament,
Mr.. Chauvin, is heard. publicly de-
nouncing the sending of troops to aid
Great Britain in the war.
The French newspapers are no less
emphatis. L'Evenement, the leading
Conservative journal Of Quebec city.
says the Anglo-Boer war is unjust and
provoked for speculative ends by the
ambitious Chamberlain. In, Quebec
the popular cry is against Imperialism
and for the independence Of Canada;
in Ontario and other English-speaking
provinces it is for closer union with
the British crown. Premier Laurier,
therefore, finds himself. placed be.
tween two inextinguishable fires, eth
err of which may eventually consume
him and his government.
