That the beginning Of catarrh is due to
the presence ef germs in the air passages
is now admitted by every physician. 1t
stands to reason that catarrh cannot be
cured unless these germsare first destroyed
The Hy0mei treatment kills the catarrh
germs even in the minutest air cells, soothes
and heals the irritated mucous membrane
and makes complete and lasting cures In
cases that have resisted the usual methods
of treatment.
\ Catarrh cannot be cured by medicines

Something New in Gifts.

An odd and attractive gift. suitable
for a holiday or birthday souvenir, is
a wonder bag. 1t is made of some
light material like sikoline or light
weight cretonne, and fitted with many
pockets, the more unexpected in loca-
tion the better. Into each of these
pockets is put some gift, trifiing or
substantial The recipient is expected
to search out one of the gifts each day
as long as they last, or reserve them
for such special days as Christmas.

eral thing the wonder bag makes
more pleasing gift when it is under
stood that the various pockets are to
be searched daily until the contents
are exhausted than If certain and far
apart days are suggested for the
search. For child this bag is apt to
prove a very acceptable gift, particu-
larly If the youthful recipient be per-
mitted to explore all the pockets at

people shall know what the facts are.
Here. then, is the truth about Kisch-
ineff.
"The anti-Jewish troubles at Kish-
ineff during the two days Of the Rus
sian Easter. April 10 and &c, exceed in
cruelty and brutality all the anti-Jew-
ish disturbances which have occurred
in Russia during the nineteenth CEN
tury. The following are some Of the
facts which the Russian government
will never be able to disprove:
"On April 10. the first day Of the
Russian Easter, and toward midday a
band of street urchins. under the lead
ership OF some older persons, COM
menced to break the windows OF the
Jewish houses in the square called
Novi Bazaar. The police admonished
the ruffians, but did nothing to punish
them. Encouraged by such unexpected
forbearance by the Russian police, not
only the gamins but the Russian work
men commenced to assemble. with
cries of Catch the Jews.
"In this crowd were seen, besides
the workmen. small merchants. arti-
sans, theological students, and even
civil servants in uniform Most OF the
crowd wore red shirts. The leaders
were two representatives of the pro-
fessional class named Possargewski
and Semigradow.
Early in the afternoon the crowd
dispersed. small parties going in diff
ferent directions. Then terrible pill
lage began. Armed with bludgeons,
ayes and bars of iron, the wreckerS
battered the doors of the Jewish
houses and shops. Furniture was
smashed, bedding destroyed and mer-
chandise carried of. Nearly all the
robbers attired themselves anew on

THE STRANGE TULIP MANIA.
Remarkable Craze That Served the

Remarkable Craze That Served the
People Of Holland.
Five hundred dollars was often paid
in Holland during the famous tulip
craze for a bulb of the Admiral Lief
kens or of the Gouda variety. $1,000
to $1,000 for Viceroy and $4,000 for
a Semper Augustus. In 1884 the craze
became so great that all usual indus
tries were abandoned. A choice bulb
sold for 81 900 in cash.. two horses, a
carriage and a set of harness, repre-
senting in all $4,000. Persons fire.
quently invested $4,000 in a few doz-
en- bulbs with which to begin business,
mortgaging their houses or giving per-
sonal property in exchange. These
extraordinary values checked the Gull
tivation of tulips, as the bulbs could
be bought and at once sold at profit
to spectators. Finally the real tulip
lovers became disgusted and in Feb
ruary, 1887, suddenly placed large
quantities of the most valuable vari-
eties upon the market. This produced
an immediate disastrous decline in the
price of bulbs. Without days warn
ing thousands found themselves
ruined. 1t was several years before
Holland overcame the effects OF this
strange mania.

piled with deliberation:
There is no objection that / can
see to your doing something, as you
call it, Eleanor. You may do whatever
you wish. If you think it necessary to
your peace of mind to earn a little
money by your own exertions-which
strikes me, l must say. as slightly
quixotic, considering how well off
your uncle is-but. as say, If 1t

things in the world fully as important

| ernment The paper Is addressed to
the governor of Kischinen and Is
dated April 5. two weeks before the
atrocities began. 1t reads as follows:
"The government is informed that a
movement is contemplated to attack
the Jews in Kischineff. The minister
of the interior desires that the COVER.
nor should try, II possible. to prevent
this. However, the governor is re-
quested not to use force against any
attacking party"
The dispatch conveying this infor-
nation from Rome adds that this COM
munication is practically an order to
the governor of Kischineff restraining
him from interfering in the massa-
cres, and 1t Is evident that the dura-
tion of the attacks for three consecu-
tive days was not the fault OF the gov.
ernor of Kischineff but compliance
with orders which he could not ignore.
This is further illustrated by the fact
that on the third day he received or
ders from st. Petersburg to quell tho
riots.
Philadelphia Jews familiar with con-
ditions say that the Russian govern
ment Is in sympathy with the anti
Semites is seen in the fact that now,
when the condition of the Jews in
that country is SO inexpressibly de-
plorable, hundreds of Jewish families
in places like Kieff have been ordered
to leave their homes and return to the
Jewish pale. This entails hardships
of the most heartrending description.
The Jews who own property are COM
PEELED to sacrifice their possessions for
next to nothing. as the Russians know
that they are compelled to go and that
they cannot take their property with
them.

LoUegT A STRONG MAN.
London Spectator Praises the Pres.
dent of France.

The London Spectator has this to
say of M. Loubet: The French presi-
dent is, we fancy, essentially a grave
and respectable lawyer. with remin-
iscence of the farmstead from which
he sprang still visible in his char
acter; without genius, but a man of
acumen and of sterling worth. He has
done nothing great, but under him no
one expects disorder, and If he has
not picked out first-rate administrators
as ministers he has chosen men ca
pable of the most solid work. The
French see their innermost preference
embodied in the president, and even
when 1t rains epigrams in Paris they
pay him every reverence, crowd to
hear his plain and direct. though brief,
speeches and strive in every village
he passes to display some evidence
of good will"
