NO CATCHING AT sTPAWs.

Nv ~ ~ AlNNA - - M " 80
Drowning mon, they say, viii
catch at straws Naturally
enough, because they see nothing
better to catch at. IL is tho
principle Of any port in % storm.
All the same the straw does not
save the drowning man, nor is
the tempest-tosscd mariner likely
to find a safe harbor every time
he runs for the shore. The scieu-
tifcally constructed life preserver
is better than a straw; and to
know how TO ride out storm is
better than to trust to luck in
finding a port in time Of need.
Just so It is in disease ana
all manner of sickness. A ship
takes a pilot on the theory that
he knows the right channel
and can avoid the dangerous
places. And when your life il
threatened by disease you natur-
ally desire a mode Of treatment
founded on absolute knowledge
"a treatment that has proved
effective in other cases like your
own. This is the common-sense
of the subject and ne one will
dispute it. And il is because
the well-known effective remedy
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
never fails in the complaints for
which it is recommended, that it
enjoys the confidence Of the
people and the medical profess
sion everywhere. The doctor
who prescribes and the patient
who takes it are not catching at
straws, for it does what it is
said to do on the same principle
that water puts out q FIRE. 1t is

The World in Conf.lef.


Since the fall Of man the world has
been battlefield peace and order
ceased 70 prevail fair Eden becomes
the birthplace Of conflict TIE rebel
animal no longer fears man-the "a
tai club is held aloft and brothers
blood criesfor vengeance toheaven
life becomes warfare upon earth
conflict is everywhere I'VE see il
daily in the common walks of life,
in town and country, village and
hamlet-wherever man has placed
his foot, wherever creeps the tiniest
insect. Corruption supplants limo
cence. hence arises fearful conflict
between vice and virtue. Is il
wonder then that we see such ter
rible conflict raging the world over?
Civilization fails TO supply the rem
edy. Here in our own boasted land
OF freedom and civization ID is start
ling and astounding TO view the
mighty engines of war chiseled and
fashioned out in cool blood in pre-
paration against the common enemy.
The proclamation of peace is but a
declaration of war. 'Tis like the
abated storm that will rise again and
perhaps hurl its fury with the more
terrific violence. History is ever
repeating itself. The world goeson
today as thousand years ago.
There is no such thing as peace.
We live in the atmosphere of want,
of doubt and uncertainty. Wealth
may take wings and the rich become
paupers. The righteous may be al
lured TO touch forbidden fruit. The
strong and robust may become in
valids, and so all along the line OF
existence. There is not one of US
who can tell what the morrow may
bring forth. As time advances the
world grows more avaricious. Thus
are the rights of others the less res
pected and the stronger the conflict
produced. A storm is seen in the
distance. II must aud will inevita-
bly, come. The hand of oppression
is heavy upon the sons OF toll. The
necessaries of life are removed from
their grasp. Those would be mon
archs are reaching to grasp the earth,
and like their brothers across the
seas would reduce the masses to a
state of serfdom-a stunning blow
indeed upon free American institu-
tons. How true the words of poor
old Josh Billings, THAT men once
in high positions are fit for nothing
much else afterwards. +" There are
no Washingtons in our day who
would limit their own power, but
Alexanders in abundance. High
days and holidays for the lords,
high prices and oppression for the
poor. Hail Columbia Where is the
happy land :? U. N.

In this emergency the churchmen
decided % ordain several colored
men who were recognised exhorters
among the colore6 parishes and
known to be men Of piety. Some
slight preliminary examination was
deemed advisable, however, and
they were questioning a candidate 10

sed- OF Moses he knew that he had
led the children of Israel through
the wilderness, David has been q
king Who played harp. Paul wrote
epistles, but vagueness Of detail &C.
companied each.
In despair the examiners asked
the candidate to tell them something
OF his own accord that he did know
fully and in detail. He said he knew
the story OF st. Jeza Belle and told
il somewhat as follows: st. Jeza Belle
she sat at an upper window of the
Palace OF Samaria looking out, and
King Ahab he came riding along and
he mighty mad he say, Throw her
down." and they threw her. And
he say, Throw her down seven

Oil at Trinidad.

Trinidad is to have AN oil boom if
indications are to be relied upon. "A
few days ago two Mexicans were pros
pecting in the hills near that city
when they opened up rock throughly
saturated with high grade of paraf
fine oil. Samples of the rock were
taken to Denver for analysis and the
results are very gratifying to interested
parties.
The find has created considerable
interest in Trinidad, SO much so, in
fact, that a company has been formed
by bankers and real estate men to sink
u well, and tools have already been
ordered.
The rock in which the oil was
found forms dyke below the foothills,
and the indications are that body of
oil is being held in a basin between
that dyke and the granite walls of the
mountains.
