But l don't want to go back" says
Joe; "ain't there no way TO strike acrOss!''
The man seemed to reflect. Then he
said:
IF you won't go back. the best thing for
you to do is to go on and take the second
right-hand road yOu see. The first would
do almost as well, but it is longer for you.
Less than mile from here you'll find n
crossroads; there are three or four houses
there; if you take the right hand there
you'll go southwest; but you go on the
main pike two miles further and you'll
strike the Cum Spring road; it's cross

goes south across Bull Rum
How far is it to where it crosses Bull

Lets see-three from here to the Gum

How near will that road take us to

What's the last you heard of the
Yankees!'
Haven't heard since yesterday. No
body has passed up the road since yester-
day morning. All the people who We're 60

or four days ago. People about here are
not afraid that they'll come up this far"

With many thanks to their informant
Joe and Dan moved on. In about a mile
a crossroads was passed. Right ahead of
them daylight was beginning to- show. At
sunrise they reached the Gum Spring road
and turned south. This road was not near
ly SO large as the one they had left; it ran
through thickets: but few plantations were
seen.'

Joe, "and get feed for the horses, at least"

Surely it is not to be wondered at that
an organ that has such an immense
amount of work to do as the heart should
be affected when exhausted by the use of
coffee, tobacco or other heart stimulants,
or by wearing the clothing SO tight that it
interferes with its proper action.
How this may come about is to some
extent explained by comparing the heart
with the eye. The distinctiveness of sight
is under control of little muscle in the
eye. When this becomes very tired from
Overwork or weakness, like all other mus
cles. it is liable to relax. Then the eye is
ont of focus and blurs.
When weakened by disease or overwork.
the heart becomes tired in consequence of
its immense strain, and many disastrous
results may occur if it is not strengthened
and its powers restored. Thus the over
taxed fibres relax like the muscle in the
eye. and the OverwOrked brain no longer
receives its necessary amount of blood.
Then fainting takes place. Should the
heart muscles remain entirely relaxed for
n minute or two, as that of the eye fire.

ISSUES OPEN LETTER.
Anti-lmperiaIists Present Discussion of
Philippine Affairs.

Lake George, NY. July discharges
OF gross misconduct on the part of the
army in the Philippines are revived in
an open letter to President Roosevelt
made public today by committee of
anti-imperialists appointed to investi-
gate the subject. The conclusion of
the President, as expressed in his re-
view of the case of General j. H.
Smith, that the abuses complained of
were Exceptional" is contradicted;
specific cases of alleged crimes by Off
GERS and others are cited and proof to
support the accusations is offered. The
President is urged to take action
toward bringing offenders to justice.
The letter is signed by Charles Fran
els Adams, chairman; Carl Schurtz,
Edwin Burritt Smith, Moorfeld Storey
and Herbert Welsh, who constitute a
committee named at meeting of rep
resentative anti-imperialists in New
York last spring.
Check to Probing.
They assert that their inquiries into
conditions in the far east have zen
countered obstructive embarrass-
ments," directly charge the suppress.
sion of the testimony of representa-
tive F'ilipinos, and draw a parallel with
the Dreyfus case in declaring the in
efficiency of military tribunals in in
vestigations where the honor of the
army" is thought to be involved.
Testimony Of officers before courts
martial, making light of the water
cure" and other alleged cruelties, is
quoted as evidence of the 'impudence
Of mockery" in these proceedings. A
hint of insincerity on the part of Sec
rotary Root accompanies quotation
from a speech by him warmly praising
the conduct of the army and refer
ence to the charges in the files of the
war department which afterwards
transpired "by accident"
The President is praised for his or
ders issued Immediately after the first
publication of the charges against the
army and the need of decisive steps
in line with his expressions is urged.
