Germany,s War Hoard.

1t is not generally known that
Germany has intact the indem.
nifty which was paid by France
after the great war of 1870. In the
Juliustrum of Spandau this enor-
nous sum in gold, amounting to
E~6,OO0,00O in value, lies hidden in
great boxes. The little town, IL
isles outside Berlin, is most heav.
lily garrisOned, and there are sew.
eral giant arsenals and ammuni
tiOn stores, so that any scheme ia
lay hold of the sum of money
would be doomed to defeat at the
outset. The idea in boarding VI
this vast sum is original. 1t il
that there may be money ready al
any moment to provide for one
weeks operations in the way OF

cancer as follows:

On the same basis the English
rate would have been 7.61 three
and four decades ago, and is now
1919. The rate has more than
doubled in both countries, but it
has all along been much higher in
England than here. Here, also, as
In England, the disease especially
affiicts women, they constituting
&C per cent. of the victims in Mas
sachusetts and about 60 per cent.
in England.
Cancer is not a disease which
would be easily mistaken, or
which would probably be more
accurately certified as a cause of
death now than 80 years ago.
The increase in the rate must thus
be regarded as real rather than
apparent, to the full extent noted,
and the question of why there
should be this much greater pres
ent danger from it than no fur.
Their back than 1870 is one to
which no satisfactory answer has
been given. at is recognized"
says the London report, "that bet.
ter sanitary, hygienic and eco.
monte conditions enable many de-
generates to survive the age of
phthisis, only to fall victims to
the age of cancer, but the problem
is still so appalling as to create
wonder that only 213 subscribers
as yet have responded to the ap-
peal for the cancer research
fund"
This is to be admitted as a par.
tial explanation of the rate of in.
crease. 1t has been found in New
England that the rate is higher in
states like Vermont, where the
number of people beyond the age
of so is especially large relative
to the whole population, than in
states like Massachusetts, where
the number is smaller. But at
best it explains away only a very
small part of the increased NOR.
tally rate from this disease.
Nor shall we be able to know for
any certainty as to the reason for
the increase until the precise
character of the disease is deter.
mined. This, of course, in the
opinion of physicians and bac.
teriOlOgists, is within the reach
of discovery, as well as the cure.
and with a special fund of $3.50.

is doubtless in the way of soon be

FIRST STAGE OF CATARRH.
A Serious Mistake Which Thou
sands Are Making.

The first stage of catarrh is what is
commonly known as " catching cold" 1t
may be in the head, nose, throat or lungs.
Its beginning is sometimes so severe as
to cause a chill and considerable fever.
or it may be so slight as to not hinder a
person from his usual business. In per-
haps a majority of cases little or no at
tention is paid to the first stage Of Ca
tarrh, and hence it is that nearly me-
half Of the people have chronic catarrh
In some form.
To neglect a cold is to invite chronic
catarrh. AS loon as any one discovers

SWAMP WATER.
Eloquent Tribute to Virtues Of the
Brown Fluid.

Here under the pines and hem
locks glides an amber-brOwn
brook, stained by the vegetable
juices of deep swamps and decOm-
posing layers of forest mold. Dip
up some of the water in a glass,
says What-tO-Eat and it is like
clear old wine, whose last lees
settled to the bottom half a cen.
fury ago. There is no faint of inn
purity in the darkness of its col.
oring. Not even the crystal noun
tain stream slipping down over
granite lodges and white sand is
purer than this brown, wine-like
water. Nature has filtered it, and
turned it over and over beneath
the sun and wind and rain, until
it is as clear and innocent as the
air Of the wilderness. Even where
the sun breaks through and turns
its tide to transparent old gold
you may kneel and look in vain
for any floating particle of impur-
ity. Drink of it, with delight and
without fear. 1t is the tonic wild
water of the woods. There is vir-
tue in every drop.
How often have / fed hither,
painting like the hart for the water
brooks of the wilderness, thirst
ing for a taste of this primitive
medicine distilled in the ancient
laboratories of the swamps! /
have come, choked with all the un-
wholesome accumulations of the
so-called civilized community
with rich and too abundant food,
with clOying Injuries, with con.
fined, polluted, germ-laden air. l
have cOme with the stagnant
blood of the sedentary worker,
with a liver heavy and inert an
lead, brain clouded and stupefed,
and plunged my lips deep into
this wild water, like a parched
and hunted deer, and with that
draught refreshed and renewed
myself as from the fountain of
eternal youth. Within a week my
whole system has become purged
and cleansed and toned up to the
key of happy living again. All.
this woodworking medicine OF
the woods, this tonic cordial pre-.
scribed by primitive instinct, and
poured forth without money and
without price in the great phar.

RACING WITH BARE FEET.
Curious Story Related to a Paris Po-
lice Commissary.

Very curious is a story which Is
related of a race that was imprO-
vised recently, with the result
that the competitors have had
good reason to rue the gullibility
which they had evinced on this Oc.
casiOn, says Paris correspondent
of the London Telegraph. A par
ty of men were refreshing them
selves at a bar when the CONVEX
satiOn turned on the interesting
subject of athletic sports. They
had been discussing various rec
ord performances when one Of
their number delivered himself Of
the opinion that a race with bare
feet was about the most trying Of
all. The others having contended
that, on the contrary, it was by
no means a difficult matter to run
under such conditions, the indi-
vidual who had started the argu-
ment offered to back it with a
round sum of money. The bet was
accepted without a moments hest
tatiOn, and a course terminating
at the Place de la Bastile having
been agreed upon, the whole par
ty proceeded to divest themselves
OF their boots, which were depos-
tied in a convenient nook, and the
signal having been given, off they
went as fast as they could go. One
competitor Jagged behind, and
this was the man who had main.
tanned that to run barefoot was
no easy undertaking, but as the
others looked behind them and
noticed that he was already limp.
ing they only laughed. When,
however, the race over, they re.
turned to the spot where they had
left their boots they soon realized
that the situation was no subject
for mirth, as the shoes had disap.
peared, and with them the indi.
vidual who had started the whole
affair. The surprise of the police
commissary of the district when
he received the visit of the party
who had called on him to lodge q
formal complaint may readily b.
imagined.

SOURCE OF CANCER.
Spread Of the Disease in Great Brit
ain and United States.

an 0nu united olaleA
A growing death rate from can.
Ger is receiving much attention in
England. 1t will be recalled that
Q special research fund for the
discovery of the cause and cure of
the disease was started some
time ago with the special indOrse-
ment Of King Edward and some
$250,0OO has already been sub
scribed. Now, says the Spring
field Republican, comes a report
from the registrar general of the
kingdom to the effect that deaths
from cancer have increased from
242 males and 519 females a year
per 100000 of population in
1S61-TO to 672 males and 977 fe-
males at present. Such are the
figures given in a telegraphed re-
port from London, and they are
forming a general topic of CONVEX
EatiOn.
1t is thus made to appear that
the death rate from cancer in
England has more than doubled
in 30 years. Here in Massachu-
sets this is likewise true. Our
rate is reckoned ON the basis of
10000 of population, and in the
census years since 1S70it has been
for cancpr as follows.
