DIsTREsslNe ASTHMA.

~ ne cared sThis Disease Must ne
roaEirt In Early Stages.
In popular usage asthma Is term
employed to describe u well known
condition. yet 1t is significant OF the
broadened knowledge of diseases in
general that, as distinct disease, the
name IS applied in more and more
restricted sense by physicians.
For example, the asthma Of which
DR.. Johnson complains In Ills later
years. as recorded by Boswell, is so
clearly set forth by the faithful bios-
fapher that the modern physician Is
even now able to determine that m
affection Of the heart was responsible
for 1t.
Asthma Is often n family affection
and Is frequently traceable TO parents
grandparents or great-grandparents
Most sufferers are of an excitable. emo
tional or nervous temperament. 1t
bears a rather striking analogy TO epi-
lepsy in that Its attacks are character.
tied by suddenness and influenced by
strong emotions like fear or grief. and
not infrequently occur at night when
the sufferer may he plunged from deep
sleep into an attack. In both Diseases
excitement during the day Is often fol-
lowed by attacks.
Physicians believe. however, that Il
high strung organization alone is not
sufficient to develop tile disorder. but
that some other source of irritation
must be addcd-tllat Is. some faulty
state OF the system elsewhere. like dis
ease Of the digestive tract. harmful
faetors circulating in the blood obsta-
cles to free breathing III the nose and
others.
Whatever may be the source they
must be dealt with energetically and ut
an early stage. since long standing
cases Of asthma Invariably develop
changes In the lungs and heart which
are permanent. The disease can then
be dealt With only by measures aimed
at palliatinG and cutting short the sep
arate attacks and with no reasonable
hope of an actual. permanent cure.
For the young sufferer and for those
in the early attacks of asthma the
writer would emphasize the necessity
of thorough search for and the re-
s,noval of any and every error in by
sienic living in order TO avoid the sur
fering of the chronic asthmatic and III"
further diseases which it brings IN its
train.-Youth's Communion.

Boer ENJOYS and Refugees Are AS
sertins That There Can Be No Peace
Without Complete independence in
the TransvaaI.
New York, April 8.-There is little
faith among the Boer sympathizers
here that peace is imminent in South
Africa, says a Tribune correspondent
from The Hague. Hearts are hard
ened in consequence of the confer
ences held here and at Utrecht and
the Boer ENJOYS and refugees are as
serting in louder key than ever that
the war will last four years longer,
and that there can be no peace with
out independence. The credulity of
the burghers Of South Africa is match
ed by the assumption of their agents
here that their deliverance is COM
Ing from England's foreign complica-
tions when there is not a cloud in the
sky.
When the three Boer commissioners
were sent to America it was assumed
that good case would be made out
for an investigation of the military
conduct of the war and the shipment
OF supplies of horses and mules from
the United States would be prohibited
These illusions were dispelled when
the delegates returned, but a new fic-
tion has been supplied. The Boer ad-
yocates are asserting that England is
fatally embarrassed by her alliance
with Japan, and certainly will be
drawn into war of tremendous mag
nltude in the far east The Boer SYM
pathizers are consequently justifying
an indefinite continuance of guerrilla
warfare and forecasting the ultimate
triumph of the cause of independence,
when British troops cannot be spared
from the larger theater of European
operations.
The Dutch were once the most as
tute neutrals in the world. They are
now the most aggressive partisans.
When the radical government was in
power the ministers confessed that the
future of Holland might be imperiled
by the bitter hostility displayed
| against England. Some of them were
frightened by the fact that Utrecht
had become a base of operations
| against England, and that Mr.. Kruger
had brought to Holland what gold re.
mained in the Transvaal treasury and
was using 1t for the purpose of main.
tanning hostile operations and promot.
