CURED BY ST. JACOBS OIL.
Unable to stand For Months because
of Sprained Ankles.
(From the Cardiff Times.

(From the Cardiff Times.
Among the thousands of voluntary en-
dorsements of the great value of st. Ja-
cobs Oil for sprains, stiffness, and soreness,
is that of Mrs. G. Thomas, 4 Alexandra
Road, Cell, Ysbrod, near Pontypridd,
South Wales, who says:-
at il with great pleasure that | add my
willing testimony to the invaluable excel
lence of your celebrated st. Jacobs Oil, as
experienced in my own case. | sprained
both my ankles in walking down some steps
so severely that | was unable to stand tor

most severe, and nothing that | used helped

from pains to use this wonderful remedy,
which did so much for me"
Mrs. Thomas does not enlighten us as to
what treatment she pursued during the
months she was unable to stand, and dur
ing which time she was suffering so much,
but we venture to suggest that had she
called in any well known medical man he
would have at once have prescribed st. Ja-

of fifty years, and doctors know there is
Jacobs Oil have been awarded twelve gold
medals by different international exRib-
tons as the premium painkilling remedy of
the world. The committees who made the
awards were in each instance composed
largely of the most eminent medical men
obtanable. Mrs. Thomas evidently did not
know the high opinion in which st. Ja-
cobs Oil is held by almost every progressive
medical man.

Four hundred and ten thousand i'm
migrants landed on the shores of the
United States last year, says statisti-
cal authority. Many of them were
Christians, many others were not.
The majority even of those who were
had no copy of the Bible. In the hands
of each, as he set foot upon the soil
of his new home, the New York Bible
society placed copy of the Scriptures.
Twenty-one different languages were
represented, the largest number be-
ing in German, the next largest in
Swedish. The immigrant problem is
always a difficult one. No one has
wholly solved it or found a safeguard
for all its dangers; but the Bible So
ciety is doing its part. 1t is a great
thing TO get man who does not know
the Bible TO read it, and no small thing
TO show him at the very doorway the
rock on which we desire our ma ational
life to be built.

War WASTE o Horses.

Roughly speaking, a corps requires
TO be remounted every forr months,
but one cavalry regiment records the
staggering figure of 5000 animals in
a little over a year. 1t was the gem
eral opinion of experts that the MEM
bers of the Household cavalry proved
themselves the best 'caretakcrs,"
and despite their heavy weights got
as much work out of their mounts
as any cavalry in the field. There
was even one instance of a troop
horse weathering the whole cam
paign and returning fiji and well to-
ceremonial duties in London.-Lon-

He Needed tho Bath,

A certain congressman has instructed
his butler to say to all undesirable callers
that he is in the bath and cannot be seen.
One day lately a constituent with griev-
ance to exploit called every day at the
house, but no matter at what hour he
presented himself he was invariably in
formed that the honorable M G. was
bathing. His last visit he timed late in the
afternoon, but was again chagrined TO
learn that Mr.. x was in the bath.
Whereupon the disappointed constituent
wrote upon his card: You may succeed, if
one of these days; but if you should spend
the rest of your life in a bathtub it would
not purify your conscience or your political
record. IN. Y. Tribune

1t is fact of some moment that
the democratic party isnomore united
to-day on the tariff question than it
was in 1891 On this subject demo-
cratic opinion ranges all the way
from the most rabid free trade to
high protection. Being out of power
and not being required to frame and
pass tariff bill, the party is able to
present something like solid front.
But if the tables were turned, the
old factional fight would break out
again. Protection is more strongly
intrenched in the confidence of the
country to-day than at any previous
time. No legislation has ever been
more grandly indicated by results
than the Dinglcy tariff. When the
free trade organs are all joining with
the republican papers in portraying
the magnificence of our prosperity,
they are paying n tribute to protec-
ton. The fact that some of our in
dustries have outgrown the need of
protection and are abusing it IT, a
good reason for revising some of the
schedules-for the abolition of some
and for helowering of fothers-butthat
outgrowing is fUlfillment of the hopes
of protectionists, and the friends of
protection are bound to put an end to
such abuses.-Washingto Star.
ryTheodore Roosevelt's protection
ism is as sound as William McKinley's,
Nelson Dngley's or Henry Clay's. In
his own words, "the first requisite to
our prosperity is the continuity and
stability of our present tariff sys-
tenn as a national policy" Reciproc-
ity's only allowable function is as "the
handmade of protection" This lays
the ghost of free trade within the
party which Messrs. Babcock, Kas-
son ct al. had been assiduously sum-
moning up.-N. Y. Press.
ETThe house rules, concerning
which so many democrats are making

rigin.-Indianapo Journal.

already arranged that there shall be
