ChampnRne and Cancer.

There is a remarkable coincidence be-
tween the spread Of cancer and the
largely increased daily consumption Of
e~ffervescent wines and waters among
the wealthy classes. Prior to the six
ties champagne as a drink was, even
in higher circles, partaken Of but occa-
sionally, nor were aerated waters con-
sumed in anything like the quantity nor
with the frequency that they now are.
These beverages. and indeed all effer-
vescing drinks, owe their sparkle to the
carbonic acid gas which they contain.
My contention is hat the upper classes
by their habit Of constantly imbibing
effervescent beverages, which are sOlu-
lions of carbonic acid of greater or less
strength. so prepare their uco It's
sues as to make them a favOring host
to the cancerous fungus, if fungus 1t
be.-London Medical Times.

WOMEN AND JEWELS.

Jewels, canoy, flowers. man-that is
Ihe order OF IA preferences.
Jewels from a magnate OF mighty power
to the average woman. Even IN t great
est of all jewels, heath, is often ruined
In the strenuous Efforts to make or save
the money to purchase them. Ii a
woman will risk her health to get a COW
eted gem, then let her fortiiy herself
against the lnsiduous consequences of
coughs, colds and bronchial affections by
the regular use of DR.. Boschee's German
Syrup. 1t will promptly arrest con-
sumption in its early stages and heal the
affected lungs and bronchial tubes and
drive the dread disease from the system.
1t is not a cure-all, but it is a certain
cure for coughs, colds and all bronchial
troubles. You can get DR.. G. G. Green's

AS for the honesty of these people, l
appeal to every English merchant or
banker from Picking to H%ongkong to
answer If he ever heard of a dishonest
Chinese merchant or banker. So far
from that, not only has every English
bank two Cinnamon to receive and
hand out money, but every bank in
Japan has the same. The English will
tell you, half in jest, that the Japanese
is an oriental Yankee and does not
trust his own people, and they will tell
you, half in earnest, that the English
bankers employ Chinese to handle their
money because they never make mis-
takes.
These people Of China have never
had anything like p bankrupt law. If
a man cannot pay his debts OIL some
one does not secretly come forward
and pay them at the end of each year,
he has 'lost his face" and so he dies
by his own hand. Yet, with all their
piteous poverty, they have no such
words as "hard times" for everything
must be settled up at the end Of the
year. There can be no extension of
time. Confucius forbade it.-JoaQuin
Miller in North American Review.

Leather Eating Ants.

It is said that in Rhodesia white ants
destroy boots and articles of clothing
left on tables or hanging on nails. The
following is from q letter received re-
Gently from South Africa: "On awak-
ing in the morning you are astonished
to see a cone shaped object on the
brick floor a short distance from your
bed with two holes at the top. On
closer examination you discover that
the holes have just the size and shape
Of the inside of your boots, which you
incautiously left on the floor the night
before. They have given form and pro-
portion to an ant heap, and nothing is
left of them except the nails, eyelets
and maybe part of the heels"
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1902-02-07

Our three meal habit is a fearful tax
on our working capacity. 1t trebles the
temptation to overeating. Our cham
pions stagger under the weight of a
physiological handicap. One-half the
functional energy of the system is d.
verified by the exigencies Of digestion.
No other hygienic mistake has done so
much to make us a generation of dys-
peptics as the custom Of after dinner
work. Its victims. moreover, incur the
risk Of contracting that form Of moral
dyspepsia called pessimism. 1t tends
to rob the working day of its reward
