For German Soldiers In China.

Waldersee's German soldiers in Chi
ma, or a part of them, are to try new
sleeping bag invented by a German
manufacturer. The bag Is just the
length, breadth and thickness of a
man, with little to spare. 1t is pulled
up over the head and tied in place.
There are small air tubes for breathing
purposes, all covered with mosquito
netting Rain can't get in, bugs can't
get in. snakes can't get in. In case
of a night assault the inmate can get
out, but not in a great hurry.

Queens viii Not to BE Proved.

The will Of Queen Victoria, says the
London Globe, will not be proved, for
the Probate Curt has no power over
the testament of the Sovereign. and
there exists no machinery by which
probate can be granted. The exact
contents of the will, will, therefore,
not be made known to the public
though doubtless some information
will be Forthcoming as to the general
tenor of the document. The only
Royal will published since that OF
Henry VIII. was that of George l.

Boring for OIL In Tex,,.

Col. J. M. Guffey's oil well, near
Beaumont, Tex, has induced specula-
tors to bore five holes in that vicinity.
This field will not be developed by
experienced oil men because they Will
not pay the prices asked for land. The
Standard Oil company is trying to
lease land on rentals with the expec-
tation that some day when the oil
fields of Pennsylvania and West Vir-
ginia and Kentucky are exhausted II
can operate the Texas fields profitably,
but at present it does not wish to pay
any fancy prices.

Great Explorer Liye, Retired.

Sir Henry M. Stanley recently cele'
brated his sixtieth birthday. A decade
ago there was scarcely a more famous
name in the world than Stanley, but
time has naturally dimmed its lustre,
and now the great explorer lives In
retirement. Darkest Africa" has
claimed her toll from him as from
many less robust, and 1t was from
reasons Of health that he had to retire

Enr,nnd's Loss OF "Blrth-Force."

Mr. j. Holt Schooling, after investi-
cations covering the whole of the last
quarter Of the nineteenth century, de-
clares that there has been steady
decrease in the British birth rate. Eng
land having fallen to the lowest birth
rate of any first tate power. France
alone excepted. One result OF this loss
OF "birth-force," as Mr.. Schooling calls
it, is that in every day Of the five years
1S94-9S, 500 TO 600 fewer children were
born than would have been born had
the 1874-75 birth rate remained oper-
alive during 1S94-98.

Diseased nerves are traceable direct
ly to poor digestion, and poor diges-
ton is directly traceable to catarrh.
With the slightest catarrh Of the stom-
ach no one can have good digestion. /
Very few of the many women who
have catarrh Of the stomach suspect
what their real trouble is. They know
they belch after meals, have sour storn-
ach, a sensation OF weight or heavi-
ness, fullness, irregular appetite.
dYowsiness, gnawipg, empty sensations,
occasional pain-they all know this;
but they do not know that their trouble
is catarrh Of the stomach. II they did
they would take Peruna. y
Peruna cures catarrh wherever 10
Gated. AS soon as Peruna removes
catarrh from the stomach the diges-
ton becomes good, appetite regular
nerves strong, and trouble vanishes,
feruna strengthens weak nerves, NOT
by temporarily stimulating them, but
by removing the cause Of weak nerves
poor digestion. This is the only
cure that lasts. Remove the cause:
Nature will do the rest. Peruna re-,
moves the cause

WOMEN MUST SLEEP.
Avoid Nervous Prostitution.

If you are dangerously sick what is
the first duty of your physician lie
uuiets the nervous system, he deadens
the pain, and you sleep well.
Friends ask, "what is the cause ?"
and the answer comes in plying
tones, nervous prostration. 1t came
upon you so quietly in the beginning,
that you were not alarmed, and when
sleep deserted you night after night
until your eyes fairly burned in the
darkness, then you tossed in nervous
agony praying Cor sleep.

immediate and lasting cure in all cases
Of systemic catarrh. 1t acts quickly
and benefcially on the diseased mu-

Peruna a True Friend to Women.
Mrs. F. J. Lynch, writes the follow
ing from 1924 S. Division street, Grand
Rapids, Mich:
The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, o.
Gentlemen-"I earnestly recommend
cures quickly. Last year ] had most
persistent cough which nothing seemed
to cure. Two bottles Of Peruna did
more for me than all the doctors
seemed to do. In couple Of weeks l
found myself in excellent health, and
have been enjoying it ever since.
Hence l look on Peruna as a true
friend to women. Mrs. F. ]. Lynch.
Peruna is equally ef1cacious in cur
ing catarrh of the throat as in curing
systemic catarrh or catarrh Of the
stomach. Catarrh is essentially the
same wherever located. Perupa cures
catarrh.

F. of this town, came very nearly losing
their esteemed and capable secretary
Mrs Julia A. Mallahan. Mrs. Mallahan
caught severe cold last winter, and
like many others, failed to recognize
the dangerous possibilities until it had
settled in her kidneys, and left her
with very severe bearing down pains
and almost constant backache. 1t al
most carried her off. Mrs. Mallahan
tells the story this way:
Il caught cold last winter, which
neglected until it settled in my kid
neys, causing severe bearing down
pains and almost constant bachache.
My health had previously been so good
that l paid little attention to these
symptoms, until the disease had gone
SO far that my doctor entertained but
slight hope of my recovery.
Fortunately one Of our Lodge Mem
beers mentioned Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Her description of the cures they had
effected sounded like fairy tale, but
sent for box, deciding to give them
trial. 1 soon found that she had but
half told the story of what they could
do. l bless the day l first tried them,
and have nothing but the highest
praise for them
Many very valuable lives have been
saved by the timely use Of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and not few of these
have been in Owosso and other neigh
boring Michigan towns. There seems
to be no case of kidney trouble on
bach-ache that Dodd's Kidney Pills
will not cure.
They are SOC. a box, six boxes for
$3.50. Buy them from your local
druggist if you can. If he cannot sup
ply you, send to the Dodds Medicine
Company, Buffalo, N. Y.

DONATING LUMBER
 TO BUILD HOSPITAL
cURRAN TAKES A TRIP DOWN THE NORTHWESTERN ROAD AND COLLECTS LUMBER FOR NATIVE HEARsEE HOSPITAL.

Meridian. Miss. December H-tspeciaD Yesterday morning at 7:s0 o'clock Supt. D. D. Curran, of the Northwestern, had his private car drawn up at the union station and ten minutes later his guests, Mrs. J. H. Wright, Mrs. w. H. Mills paugh, Mrs. Henry and Mrs P. Grant, with MT. Grant were speeding down to Northwestern on a mission of charity.
 Stops were made at every mill point between Meridian and the Louisiana line. and something like twenty cars of lum- Der were donated to them for the purpose of building the Native Hearsee Hospital an undertaking that the ladies have been at work on for more than ,Iree years.
 Another trip will be made this time down the Mobile and Ohio, and if the lumpermen are as generous as the mill owners on the Northwestern nothing will stand in the way of letting the contract for the building at once. The plans for the hospital are very handsome, and when 1t is finished Meridian will have one of the most modern hospitals in the South.
 The Evening Star Is raising a fund for the purpose of holding free distribution of toys Christmas eve. Contributions are coming in quite literally and from pres ent indications the poor children will be remembered on that happy occasion.

On the Race 0rack
AT NEW ORLEANS.

New Orleans. December H.-Weather cloudy; track heavy. A sudden cold snap cut down the holiday attendance mate rially. Utrep was the only successful favorite and he was well backed. The other winners had but wild support.
 The feature of the card was the Pre- liminary Derby handicap sweepstake for two year-olds and next to the derby It. self the richest stake of the meeting. For some unexplained reason OHagan was made favorite but he failed at any time to show better than third. The race lay between Little Scout and Kalo- ma who finished necks apart and ten lengths in front of the others. The win ner was quoted at the liberal odds of 15 to 1 but had little backing. The pair finished staggering and Little Scout seemed to bear in on Kaloma towards the end, but as no foul was claimed it may not have been enough to affect the re- suit.

DENOUNCES THE
 ISTHMIAN TREATY
THE LONDON SATURDAY REVIEW CONTINUES CAMPAIGN AGAINST IT-RRoAD PRINCIPLES FAIL IN uNscRuPuLous HANDS.

London, December H.-The Saturoay Review continues its campaign against the Nicaragua treaty It declares that Senator Lodges speech during the execu- tive session of the Senate December lo should at least make it clear how com plete is Lord Lansdownes surrender to the United States.
 The Review holds that permission to fortify the canal exists, but that Sena- tor Lodge in order to win over the more impudent believers in American almighti- ness exaggerated the intention of the treaty, the broad principle of which the writer holds Is perfectly naturalization and opposed to any arbitrary act by the United States.
 But" the Saturday Review continues, mine points of the law are with Senator Lodge. If the history of diplomacy has shown anything 1t has proved the abso- lute helplessness of broad principles and wide implications in dealing with un- scrupulous politicians.

Two Popular Men Whom Santa Claus
 Will Treat We'll.

Another evidence of the generosity and good will that have always characterized the Peerless saloon has just been made public. As recognition and appreciation of faithful and efficient service the pro- proprietors of this place are going to give the entire Christmas day proceeds to their two helpers, Messrs. H. D. Odom and c. ". Burton.
 Everybody knows Hugh" and Bur ton,' and their friends will all be glad to hear of this thoughtful act on the part of their employer. They are always glad to see their friends at the Peerless, but 1t Is natural to suppose that they will be especially pleased to extend the glad hand to all Christmas day, and to be sure that no one gets away without be- ing waited on.
 The Christmas day proceeds of the Peerless saloon, which will, of course, be made larger than they otherwise would be by the friends of these two men, will make a very handsome and acceptable gift. s+*
