crossing at that place. This petition is
being literally signed. 1t was at this

PERMANENCE OF CURE.
THE CHIEF MERIT.

Many so-ealled pile remedies will afford tine user
slight temporary relief. and the majority of SUI
ferers do not expect more than this. Women
pecally, after having tried every preparation
commended for the cure Of Piles have come 10 the
conclusion that there is no cure excep. by an op-
Grafton. This is rightfnily viewed with dread be-
cause of the shock to the delicate nervous system
Of women. and manv of those afflicted have re-
signed themselves to the situation with never
thought that there is any help in sight for them.
We invite the attention of all such to the ex-
perience of the lady whose address is given below.

The Opening Of Ethiopia.


The out-of-the-way places of the world
are rapidly being opened up and brought
into touch with the practical, strenuous
lie OF the most dvanced nations. 1t was
only few weeks ago that our government
concluded treaties for the further opening
Of China and Korea to intercourse with
this country Now, following closely upon
Cathay and the Land of Morning Calm
comes ancient Ethiopia, the land of Prester
John. We. too, often think of Ethiouians
as black men. of the Hametic race, and of
Ethiopia as somewhere in central Africa.
The old maps. indeed, used to apply the
name to the Congo country. The truth is
OF course, that Ethiopia is and always
mas been what we now call Abyssinia
and the Philippians fliteralIy '.sunburned")
are brown people of the Semitic race
closely akin to the Arabians. They are a
people of long and distinguished descent
too. Their emperor, Menelik. claims lineal
descent from an earlier Menelik who was
the son of Solomon. and Makeda, or Balkis
Queen of Sheba. II So there is no other
royal dynasty in the world so old or SO IL
lustrious in origin. Whether or not that
claim is we'll founded we know that Ethio-
pia was great empire long before the
Christian era, and that In the early CEN
turtles of that era it's capital. Axum, was
large and splendid city. 1t held sway over
Yemen and Sheba, and thus commanded
both shores of the Red sea, and was the
one great bulwark of Christianity against
Mahometanism In that quarter of the globe
Against II the whole power of the Ma
hometan world was directed, and its isola-
ton prevented 1t from getting aid from Eu-
rope. SO that II had to maintain the strug-
gle alone The odds against 1t were too
much. and the splendor of Axum was de-
stroyed. But a considerable part of the
empire never was conquered by Islam. but

Coal for 371 Years.

From the st. James Gazette.
1t appears that there is coal in the
united kingdom to depth of 4.Co0 feet, suf-
ficient, at about the present rate of output
to suffice for 81 years, but that this period
will be considerably extended, seeing that
there is every probability that mining can
be carried on to a depth of 1900 feet
though at this depth there will not be any
thing like the area of coal that there is
at the former limit. 1t is also reasonable
to expect that this period of supply may be
still further extended by more economical
use of fuel, due to the establishment of GEN.
trail electrical supply stations and the util-
1zation of Mond and other gas-producing
processes and of gas-driven engines. as well
as other means of obtaining a higher per-
centage of the heat value of the fuel
