Generals Of the Revelation.

OF the generals of the revolution
It may be fairly said that their mill
tary ability was, at least, superior to
that of their opponents. They never
lost an army, while Burgoyne lost
his at Saratoga, and Cornwalis his at
Yorktown. Howe gained victories at
Long Island, the Brandywine and
Germantown, but they were not due
to his skill, but to the fact that he
commanded regular, trained troops
and was opposed by undisciplined
levies; he escaped defeat at Mon
mouth, but this was due to Lees
treachery and cowardice. Similarly.
CORVALLIS gained victories at Gull
ford and Eutaw Springs, and for the
same reasons. But neither Howe nor
CORVALLIS was ever able to destroy
or capture the army opposed to him;
and Clinton did not think it prudent
to attempt any decisive operations.
On the other hand, Washington con-
stantly showed military ability Of
the very highest order. There is no
greater mistake than to call him q
Rpod man, but 8 second-rate soldier.

one captured the young ones. On their.

loss. The cock, however, went and
fetched about so other pigeons, which
actually devastated the garden, tho

stroyed in wholesale. quantities.-Lon,

Substitution i'm Medicines

soning, the druggist who gave the
wrong medicine offered as an excuse
that he had merely substituted one
article for another on the supposi.
ton that it was of equal strength
and much cheaper The prescriber,
in testifying on NC trial, stated that
the practice was a very dangerous
and very frequent one, and was ap.
parently past remedy. While the lat.
ter may, or may not, be the case, ii
is quite certain that with many who
claim to be reputable and competent
pharmacists the practice of substitu-
ton is very common. The number of
protests made from time to time in
medical journals have reference to
only a very small percentage Of of
tenders, inasmuch as the larger num-

New species of plants from the
Congo are rapidly becoming popular
in Europe. Among them not one ia
more admired than the calamus,
which is species of palm that grows
in the Ogoue region. 1t is notable
for the fact that in wild state it re-
mains low shrub fer several years,
then suddenly develops, and, attach
ing itself to tree near it, climbs
quickly to its summit. It's wood is
in much demand in the Congo, long,
straight canes, which are used for va
rious purposes, being fashioned from
it. Another popular palm tree is the
podococcus acaulis hua, which grows
in the lower Congo region on the
banks of the Fernan-Vaz- II is .
dwarf and quite rare. Its leaves are
soft, and while the tree is young they
remain unbroken, but as soon as the
tree reaches its full height assures
appear in them. One tree was grown
from seed in France and is now at
tracing so much attention that sew
eral more seeds have been ordered

The Kings precautions.

Among the worksNwhich are taking
place at Windsor castle is the pulling
up of all the foors-which have not
been touched since the beginning OF
the last reign; some not for a CEN
tury. They are to be completely re-
laid on modern principles and are to
be rendered fireproof. Since the
burning of Sandringham the king has
always had great dread of fire and
he is taking advantage of the present
opportunity of rendering the castle
more secure against the devouring
element.-Tattler.

1t stands to-day before the nation
as thoroughly tested, accurately sci
entific internal remedy for catarrh.
There are practically no medicinal
rivals in the field.
Peruna is not local application or
temporary relief; it is a permanent

1t eradicates catarrh from the sys-

Therefore, Peruna is receiving the
Endorsement of the leading statesmen
