of Nels Morris feet, and the operation
will be performed to-day. He will
lose the toes on one foot, and the

able to take care of themselves, and
having wife and family it will be
necessary that they receive some as

A Scientific Discovery.

Kodol does for the stomach thai
which it is unable to do for itself
even when but slightly disordered OF
overloaded. Kodol supplies the nat
ural juices of digestion and does the
work of the stomach, relaxing the
nervous tension, while the inAamed
muscles of that organ are allowed to
rest and heal. Kodol digests what
you eat and enables the stomach and
digestive organs to transform all food
into rich, red blood. j r. Kruger.

Our fathers in the troublous days
of the Revolution had no warmer OF
truer friend than was Edmund
Burke, the British statesman, be-
fore whose eloquent thunder the
proudest magnates quailed. On
April 10, 1774, he delivered in par
Lament his celebrated speech against
the unjust taxation of the original
thirteen American colonies. On
March 90, 1775, he delivered anoth-
er powerful and eloquent speech in
behalf Of the Americans, wherein he
handled the policy of the govern
ment rather severely. Nor had he
spared the king.
Upon taking his seat on this oc-
casion one of his majesty's ministers
of finance arose to take him to task
for having cast contempt upon the
king, fancying, no doubt, that if he
could divert the attention of the
commons from the administration
to the monarch he might break the
force Of Burke's strong philippics.
Burke listened until the gentleman
had concluded, and then, addressing
the speaker in very quiet and sub
dued manner, as though the opposi-
ton he had called up was Of but
slight consequence, he said:
'|Sir, the honorable gentleman
has exhibited much ardor, though
but very little discrimination. He
should know that, however I may
reverence the king, [ am not at all
inclined to extend that reverence to
his minister's may honor his
majesty, but, sir, can see no posi-

Gloves Are Flowers.

Cloves are the unopened flower of
d small evergreen tree that resem-
bles in appearance the laurel or the
bay. It is a native of the Malacca
or Spice islands, but has been car
ried to all the warmer parts of the
world, and it is now cultivated in
the tropical regions OF America
The flowers are small in size, and
grow in large numbers in clusters
to the very end Of the branches.
The cloves we use are the flowers
gathered before they are opened
and while they are still green.
After being gathered they are
smoked by wood fire and then
dried in the sun.
Each Glove consists of two parts
of a round head, which are the four
petals or leaves of the flower rolled
up, inclosing a number of small
stalks or filaments; the other part
of the Glove is terminated with four
points, and is, in fact, the flower
cup Of the unripe seed vessel. All
these parts may be distinctly seen
if few cloves are soaked for .
short time in hot water, when the
leaves of the flower soften and IN.
roll.
