that the death rate in Havana was

BEAUTIFUL WHEAT.

An ode l will write of the wheat fields so
grand,
That are raised on the hills of our beautiful
land.
Like large standing army of millions untold
They stand there undaunted, like warriors Of
old.
They look like great pillows of white d. fitting
sand,
As they bow their fair heads to the wind Is
When our time-honored farmer sows the seed
in the spring,
His cherished hope is a good crop it will
bring;
And his hopes are now fulfilled, for by
September's sunlight
This large standing army now greets his tired
sight.
The word wheat" is respected in every
household
with gold,
And buys the warm wraps to turn winter 8
cold
When ripe it stands waiting, majestically
grand,
The swift-cutting sickle, the sturdy farm
hand,
Quickly behead it and place in the stack;
1t next meets the thresher and is sewed in the
sack.
end,
For to far away countries the grain we will
send.
1t is hauled to the warehouse and put on the
track,
In the cars that are waiting their burden to
pack
Then down to the ocean and into ship,
On the widest f waters it takes it first trip
And the Lord only knows to what seaport it
goes,
To be made into -four and then snowy.white
lOaves.
Wheat, wheat, beautiful wheat,
The life of all nations, the bread that we eat.
lis wholesome, It's toothsome, delicious and
sweet,
The snowy white bread made from our good
wheat.
For bushels on acres unrivaled we stand,
The king of wheat countries-our dear Pa
louise land.

An Execution In China.

The poor Wretches were made to dig
large square pit, and one by one they
were made kneel at the edge with
their hands tied behind their backs. A
Japanese officer stepped forward and
with the ordinary service sword drew
It back ana forward over the poor
yretch's neck. and then with 4 swift
blow it descended, cutting off the head.
The next one was as successful, and
then came Il terrible spectacle. The Jap
anese officer. after wiping his sword,
drew the back to and fro over the
poor wretch's neck three or four times
before he struck the fatal blow. Down
came the blade on the apex Of the skull,
cutting about two inches into the neck.
The poor wretch fell into the pit, the
Japanese officer climbing down and
saving away at the neck until the head
was severed The heads were immedi-
atelv carried over to the main road and
strung up on poles as an object lesson
to the large number of Chinese who
were congregated around with blanch-
ed faces.-Canadian Magazine.

Whit We Most Remember.

Memory is for the most part "a trivial
fond record of the affairs of everyday
life, and our intense desire not to lose
the remembrance of these unimportant
everyday matters is one of the greatest
testimonies to the predominance of
happiness over unhappiness in the
world. Do we not feel sorry from our
hearts for any one who has lost such
an infinitely precious possession with
out even wondering whether or no
there was anything in their past lives
worth recOllecting? After all, how few
are the hours which any Of us would
blot out of our lives! Those perhaps
during which we have witnessed or
suffered acute physical or mental pain,
the moment when we engendered the
worm of remOrse which dieth not or
those few minutes of humiliation
which, whether we trace them to fault
or fate, remain in our minds to ''veX
lis like Il thing that is raw" But how
small is the part we would have taken
away compared to the part we would
retain!-LondOn Spectator.

Still More Counterfeiting,

The Secret Service has unearthed an
other band of counterfeiters and secured
large quantity of bogus bills, which
are SO cleverly executed that the aver
age person would never suspect them of
being spurious. Things of great value
are always selected by counterfeiters for
imitation, notably the celebrated Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which has
manv imitators but no equals for indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, constipation, nerv-
ousness and general debility. The
Bitters sets things right in the stomach,
and when the stomach is in good order,
it makes good blood and plenty of it.
In this manner the Bitters get at the
seat of strength and vitality, and re-
store vigor to the weak and debilitated.

A GOOD DEAL OF NONSENSE.

About Blood Purifiers" and "Tonlcs."
Every drop Of blood, every bone, nerve
and iisaue in the body can be re,
newed in but one way, and that lie, from
wholesome food properly digested. There
Is no other way and the idea that a med
icine IN itself can purify the blood or
supply new tissues and strong nerves is
ridiculous and on par with the fol-de-
rol that dyspepsia or indigestion is a
germ disease or that other fallacy, that
a weak stomach which refuses to digest
food can be made to do 30, by irritating
and inhaming the bowels by pills and
cathartics.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure indi-
gestion, sour stomach, gas and bloating
after meals, because they furnish the di'
gestive principles which weak stomachs
lack, and unless the deficiency of pepsin
aud diastase is supplied il is useless 20
