Jackson explained that the lepers of
the United States are largely confined
10 the extreme southern states and the
Pacific Slope. and that. although there
is little fear Of the disease spreading TO
other sections, ii is important 10 keep
it down in the sections infected.

When VIII Coal Give Out .

1t appears that there is coal in the
United Kingdom to depth of 1000
feet, sufficient, at about the present
rate of output, to suffice for 81 years,
but this this period will be consider
ably extended, seeing that there is
every probability that mining can be
carried on to a depth of 1000 feet
though at this depth there will not
be anything like the area of coal that
there is at the former limit. And it
further seems probable to expect that
this period of supply may be still
further extended by the more econom-
ical use of fuel, due to the establish
ment of central electrical supply sta
tions, and the utilization of Moud and
other gas-producing processes, and of
gas driven engines, as we'll as other
means of obtaining higher percent

MiIIionaires' Poor Stomach.

The worn-out stomach of the over
fed millionaire is often paraded in the
public prints as horrible example of
the evils attendant on the possession of
great wealth But millionaires are not
the only ones who are afflicted
with bad stomachs. The proportion is
far greater among the toilers. Dys
pepsia and indigestion are rampant
among these people, and they suffer far
worse tortures than the millionaire un
less they avail themselves of stand

household remedy for all stomach
troubles for over thirty five years. Au-

The New Building at West Point.

Congress has authorized the expen-
ditures of ten millions of dollars on
the complete rebuilding of the Nation
al Military Academy at West Point.
The architects invited to compete for
the plans were chose from the high
est ranks of the profession in New
York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago,
st. Lonis and other citiec. The sue
cessful design was submitted by
Messrs Cram, Goodhue and Ferguson,
of Boston. Speaking of this design, a
writer in the current number of the
Forum says: eff the design shall be
carried out without interference by
Congress or officious meddling by the
army engineers, the final result will be
a group of buildings unrivalled in
architectural beauty by any institu-
ton of it's kind, and, taken with the
beauty of their magnificent site, at
least unsurpassed by any institution OF
any kind in the world"
Messrs. Cram, Goodhue and Fergu-
son were the designers of the new
Emmanuel Church.
