man. They fear that Botha. De Wet,
Delarey and Krit1inger will retaliate
BY shooting the British soldiers they
capture, instead of disarming them and
sending them back to the British
camps as heretofore. Frederic Harri-
son, who has opposed the war from the
beginning, says that the execution OF
Cape Colonists is murder, and that
civilians cannot be tried and punished
by eourts-martial under the British
constitution. ss-,t,34-:,.
81 would warn our khaki judges and
executioners in South Africa" he says,
"that during comparatively recent
times, years after he, committed the
offense, British governor Of a West
African colony was tried in London
for having sanctioned the judgment Of
court-martial which decreed the
whipping of a civilian, which proved
fatal. I would warn them also that
this governor was hanged in England
for his subversion of English consti-
Mtional law. The declaration of MAJ
tial law at Cape Town, miles distant
from any actual hostilities, is utterly
Illegal and monstrous and deserves the
odium of the empire. If soldiers may
become absolutists at Cape Town, why
may they not also become absolutists
at Dublin, Glasgow or London?"
The war is far from being over, and
Il British officer declares it will last for
two years longer. According to Off
cial report the cost of the war thus far
has been $700,OOO,OOO, and the number
of men killed and incapacitated for
service has aggregated $4,000. The
Boer generals are as active as ever
Botha has eluded the British generals
in pursuit of him and his whereabouts
is unknown. De Wet is not idle, though
nothing is said Of him. The next dis
patch from Kitchener may bring the
news that the Marion of South Africa
has surprised 4 British garrison with
an overwhelming force and that he has
executed British officers by way of re-
prisal. When such news is received a
war of determination will ensue which
will stagger humanity before it ends.

Catarrh.

CArARRH ennres neither strong nor

TATARRH spares neither strong nor
~ weak, old or young, sick or well.
All ranks Of people have chronic ca
tarrh; rich men, poor men, beggar men,
thieves, lawyers, doctors, merchants,
priests. Not only eatarrh Of the head,
but catarrh of the throat, catarrh OF the
lungs, catarrh of the stomach, catarrh
of the liver, catarrh of the kidneys,
catarrh Of the bowels, and O multitude
Of women are afflicted with eatarrh Of
the pelvic organs.
Catarrh Is a word which includes a
multitude Of diseases. Nearly one-half
OF the diseases TO which the human flesh
Is liable, are in reality, nothing more nor
less than catarrh in some phase or loca-
tion.
When il is said, therefore, that Peruna
cures catarrh wherever located, a much
larger fact IL stated than at first appears.
Ifit be true that Peruna really does cure
catarrh wherever located, what multi
tude of diseases Peruna will cure.
Who is 1t that says Peruna will cure
catarrh wherever located? Doctors say
it, lawyers say IT, preachers say ii, a vast
army of men and women say itwho have
tried 1t. The old and the young say it.
They say it in the east, in the west;
they say it in the north and the south.
All these say that Peruna will cure ca
tarrh wherever located, and they say it
too without any solicitation, hesitation
or remuneration. Never was greater
assertion crowded into fewer words, Pc
runa cures catarrh wherever located.
