soil provides from ~.
the growing crops and ruin their pro-
ductiveness.
Diseases are to the body what weeds
are to the soil. They divert the nutri-
ton which is necessary to sound health,
and the body, instead OF being strong
and hardy, drags out sickly existence.
When the stomach is diseased, and the
other organs of digestion and nutrition
are involved with it, there is a constant
loss of nutrition by the body. The stom-
ache and its allied organs are not able to
convert the foods into nourishInent and
hence the body and its several organs are
deprived of the necessary elements of
vitality. What is known as weak 4"
heart or "weak" lungs, weak" nerves
and other forms of so-called weakness, are
generally caused by "weak" stomach.
When the stomach and the other organs
of digestion and nutrition are cured, then
the other diseases are cured with it. Dis
eases which are caused by a diseased
condition of the stomach are cured
through the stomach. DR.. PierCe's
Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases
of the stomach and its associated organs
of digestion and nutrition. 1t cures

greatest Tartar of them all, the won
derful Tamerlane.
Tamerlane burst on the Golden
Horde in 1881. 1t had broken into two
factions and had erected two great
Khanates. At this moment the Russ
attacked the divided hordes from the
west and Tamerlane cut into them
from the east.
Beset by their own Tartar kinsmen,
the last of the Tartar conquerors now
made desperate stands for existence
But by 1880 the Moscovite Cars had
succeeded in reducing the last of the
Golden Horde on one hand, and then
the Russ swept into the Khanate of
Kasan and made it tributary.
From that time dates the might of
the Gar of to-day. Republics and
kingdoms and duchies fastened to
show allegiance. Novgorod fell as a
Republic, and the vast land of Russia,
peopled by its thousand tribes, became
a gross, crushed, helpless land of the
autocrat-welded into nation, not by
the logical, orderly process of time
and environment acting on alien
races, but by fire and sword
Siberia which, as the small map
shows, is greater in area than Euro
pean Russia, was so added, too. In
1880, Vassilli Timofewitsch, now
known as Jermak, crossed the Ural
with Cossack hordes and made the land
tributary. JULIUS MULLER.

last man who understood it died in
1870.
In the meantime, the Swedes had
conquered the Finnish tribes and taken
all the north of Russia; and the Swed-
ish Marshal Jorkel Knudsen built the
city of Landscrona on the present site
of St. Petersburg.
In 1916 the Cumani huddled to-
getller and began to move to the west.
For through the Ura1s came now
the first of the great Tartars from
the far east-the vanguard of Denghis
Khan, who, in eleven years, had car
ried his arms from Mongolistan over
Tibet and Persia to Europe.
Then began the wonderful empire
of the Mongol Khanate of the Golden
Horde of Kiptchak 1t extended from
the Siberian Lakes to the Caspian, and
from the Vistula River in Poland to
the Ura1 Mountains.
Alone of all Russian governments,
stood the Republic of Novgorod.
1t was a member of the mighty
Hanseatic League of Cities, and was
truly the New York or London of the
Middle Ages. "Who can resist God
and the great Novgorod?' was the
Russ proverb.
And it was Novgorod's might that
was to free the Russians from the
Golden Horde in the end; Novgorod,
aided strangely by another, and the

ever worn. 1t was instructive,
while we were wading in the mud, to
see the Chinese, gay and delicately
shod safe above the mire In North
China in every village we found
groups of women seated on the grassy
banks under a tree, their hair smooth
ly dressed, in their clean shirts and
trousers, all shoe making, while they
chartered like women all the world

shoes. All were gaily wrought with
appliques of silk and cloth. The soles
were built up of layers of felt. 1t
