CHARACTER FACTOR IN WAR
Great Weakness of the Russians Is
Their Lack Of Perseverant
Application.

With rare exceptions the Russian
peasants are lacking in education, So
briefly, industry, energy and honesty.
They have the characteristics of a race
of slaves; and my own observation
leads me to class them on the whole
as ON lower stage than the negroes
In our southern states, writes N T..
Bacon, in Booklovers' Magazine. They
are so suspicious of anyone asking
questions that frequently they will lie
when 1t is to their interest to tell the
truth, and they will use the greatest
ingenuity in stealing and covering their
tracks; but they so totally lack perse-
verance, as a rule, that it Is difficult
Some of these characteristics extend
high up. At the time that the Retvi-

Cramps, another vessel was being
built for the Japanese navy, and naval

that the Russians did little but drink
and seldom went near their vessels,
while the Japanese watched every
piece that went into, constitution and

knowledge that allows an Intricate

The movement is underway again to
establish a Irvine plant ut the pene-
Tertiary at Sioux Falls. 1t is likely
that a bill will be introduced at the
coming session OF the legislature to
provide funds for the undertaking.
The convicts have too much idle time
on their hand and it is thought the
state might reap quite revenue from
the industry, in addition to furnishing
the farmers Irvine at IL lower price
than the trust furnishes it.

The Sioux Falls Press is against the
640-acre proposition for homesteads on
the vacant government lands west of
the Missouri, While the Aberdeen
News favors it. Both these dailies
were strong supporters of Pierre in
the late capital location scrap and the
News especially affected much indig-
nation that the quality and resources
of the lands on the great Sioux reser-
yation should be questioned. sJust

enough for a settler out in the western
part of the state. But bless you il

While most of the newspapers of the
state favor Il new capitol building in
the shortest possible time, they are
not all in accord on the proposition.
1t is a singular feature, too, of the
discussion that a greater proposition
of the newspapers which favored NOV
ing the capital to Mitchell are willing
that the state should spend a large
sum of money than Of those which
supported Pierre. In this they are
consistent-as those Pierre papers
who are against it believe in standing
on the same line of argument advanc-
ed by Pierre during the campaign:
that the present capitol building is
good enough for years to come.

Complaint was made against Supt.
Hotf of the Mitchell public schools for
whipping several boys. The parents
held that he had been unduly severe
and left marks on them. When the
board investigated they learned that
the boys got licked for making vile
remarks to small girls and refused to
desist. They not only exonerated the
superintendent but advised him to
get a good rawhide in place of the
willow switch.

body clean. You don't wait until your
body. is foul before you cleanse it.
1t is a matter of surprise that many peo-
make no effort to keep the blood clean.
Everyone knows that un%cleanness breeds
disease; that those who do not keep their
bodies i'll a wholesome condition and who
dwell in filthy surroundings are the first to
fall when some epidemic Of disease sweeps
the country. But foul blood is more dan
gerous to the individual than a foul body.
An unclean body is rather a passive than
an active hindrance to health. But unc}ean
blood is an active threat against the very
!life-it makes the body a prepared breed
ing place for disease.
1t is part of Nature's plan for human
safety that in many cases where the blood
is impure or corrupt she sets Il sign OH the
body i'll proof of the corrupt current that is
flowing through the veins. Scrofula with
its dislguring sores and scars, eczema with
its irritation, s%alt-rheurn, letter, erysipelas,
boils, pilnples and other eruptions are only
the outward signs of the impurity of the
blood. But often in the earlier or simpler
stages of the blcod's ilnpurity there are no
outward signs of this condition; only dull,
languid, sluggish feelings, which are COM
monty attributed solely to the sluggishness
of the liver.
OF all preparations for purifying the
cry easily takes the first place. 1t elimin-
ates from the blood the elements which
clog and corrupt it, and which, breed and
feed disease. 1t acts directly on the blood
and SO increasing the supply of rich, pure
blood which is the life of the body.

PAIN IN LOST LIMBS.
Physical Experiences by Which Sur
oeons Are Sometimes Puzzled.


Some weeks ago Glen Bachelor. of
Indiana lost both hands in a railway
accident. The amputated hands were
placed in a jar of alcohol and Mr..
Bachelors arms received the most
careful surgical attention. He suffer-
ed, however, for two weeks from Sc
we're and peculiar pains where the
hands formerly were.
Mr.. Bachelor insisted that his lost
hands were crowded in such a way
as TO give him the sensation of severe
cramping pains, and when he learned
how they had been disposed of he de-
manded that they be properly buried
The hands were taken from the jar,
were Strengthened to natural posi-
ton. were carefully wrapped, were in
cased in a box, and were buried. AS
soon as this was done Mr.. Bachelor
was relieved of the pains that had kept
him i'm agony for two weeks.
The story will be received with
smiles by the younger experts of the
medical profession, with shakes of the
head by the older surgeons, and, with
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1904-12-17

ready belief by hundreds of men who
have suffered as Mr.. Bachelor suffer-
ed.
Many man who has suffered am
putatiOn of a leg or foot has been
kept in anguish by the feeling of some
object between the toes, by an mtol-.
cradle itching where the toes ought to
be, or by sharp rheumatic pain in
the ball of the missing foot A man
who has lost hand or an arm has
been seized, suddenly with a distress
ing pain in the limb or in the finger.
and has become almost hysterical be-
cause he could not relieve it by touch
ing the hand that was not there.
Surgeons called to treat such cases
have contended that the feeling was
simply hallucination; that men who
have suffered amputation have read
stories of queer sensations in lost
limbs and that these stories have tax
Cii SiSii 81 iiOtu upOH TIE gina
that they experience the pain attrib-
uited to the men whose stories they
have read.
Acting on this theory the surgeon
falls in with the belief of the man. ad
ministers something to quiet the
nerves, and, in cases where the mis-
sing foot is accessible. gives directions
for its proper handling and interment.
However, this does not settle the
case Ina week or a month the man
of the lost hand or lost foot has other
trying experiences, and the surgeon
tries to laugh him out of the halluci-
nation. In good time the patient APP
parently surrenders his belief as to
pain in the lost foot or hand. but In
his own heart he holds to it. He may
not talk about it, but he will insist
that the sensation in the missing foot
is so real and so eXasperating that it
at times drives him almost TO the
point of insanity.
There are strong men who have had
such experiences, and their theory in
nerves severed in amputation is re-
that some careless treatment of the
sponsible for the queer sensations. A
few surgeons have admitted that there
may be something in this theory but
if it be admitted that. the theory is
correct, it does not explain the SEN
sations experienced by Mr.. Bachelor.
In this age when the nerves of men
and women receive more attention
from the medical profession than ever
before is it not a little strange that
these so-called Authorizations as to
sensations in missing members of the
body have not been more closely in
vestigated? Are these sensations the
work of the imagination, or are they
the result of real physical conditions?
