What Children Are Rocked ln-Just
as Happy.
When a baby is born in Guinea all
sorts of funny things happen to it. Its
mother buries it in the sand up to it's
waist, so it cannot get into bad mis-
chief, and this is the only cradle it
knows anything about.
The little Lapp infant is Graded in
a shoe-his mothers. This is big
affair covered with skin and stuffed
with soft moss. This can be hung on
tree or covered up with snow while
mamma goes to church or any place
where babies are not invited.
The baby of India rides in basket
which hangs from its mothers head
or from her hip, or in hammock. In
some parts the baby's nose is adorned
with a nose ring, and in others its
face is wrapped in a veil like its
mother.
The Chinese baby is tied to the back
of an older child.
The Mongolian infants travel about
in bags slung on a camel's back.
In some countries the mothers lay
falls on their heads. This is to make
them tough, which 1t does unless the
babies die as a result of this treat
ment; Another mother covers her
baby's head with paste, while the Tar
tar baby is covered with butter. The
Turkish baby is salted-perhaps to
keep it sweet-while the worst fate
of all falls to the lot of the newly born
children in Bulgaria. Their mothers
put hot omelette on the little ones
heads to make them solid and protect
them from sunstroke. The Bulgarian
baby doesn't like it any better than
you would. He makes a great howl
about it, but it is not bit of use. His
mother thinks she knows better about
some things than he does. so he has to
submit, which he does with very bad
grace indeed

buttoned.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most cOmpe-
tent authorities. They have dis
covered the silly notion that one
kind of food is needed for brain
another for muscle, and still an
other for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish a particular
part of the body, but will sustain
every other part. Yet, however
good your food may be, its nutri-
ment is destroyed BY indigestion
or dyspepsia. You must prepare
for their appearance OF prevent
their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower,
the favorite medicine of the
healthy millions. A few doses
aids digestion, stimulates the liver
to healthy action, purifes the
blood and makes you feel buoyant

The Careless
ness of Nan

Is often the cause of bitter disap-
pointments. The modern man
looks after the future welfare of
his family by buying life insur-
ance, Government bonds or some
other safe investment, and neg
lects one thing that possibly
would be more consolation and
comfort in case he was called
away. And that is modern pho
tograph; 800 of our business is
women and children. The men
are always putting it off until
finally a black gowned woman
brings in an old tin-type taken
when John was 20, and has it cop.
led. Not much comfort, but it's
all she has. Don't you think a
small investment in photography
would be a good one for you?

1t is worth considerable to any
citizen of Sistersbille to know
how to be cured of painful, annoy
ing and itching piles. Know
then that Doan's. Ointment is a
positive remedy for all itchiness
of the skin, for piles, eczema, etc.
One application relieves and
soothes. Read this testimony OF
it's merit:
Mrs. Sadie Ranger Of COS Sth
street, Marietta, O., says: "Mr.
Ranger has had no reason to
change his opinion about Doan' s
Ointment which swas expressed
in our Marietta newspapers in
1900. He had been troubled with
hemorrhoids for some time, and
this was the first remedy which
afforded him positive and com
plete relief. We have used Doan' s
Ointment in our family as need
has arisen with the children and
find there is nothing to equal it
for relieving itchiness or irrita-
ton of the skin which they have
been troubled. Doan's Ointment
is all that it is represented to be,

ease is that it has not shown any ten.

among the Europeans and Americans
than among natives.
The origin of the cholera has NOT

who died OF the disease was exhumed
at Pateros shortly before the outbreak
The belief is growing, however. that
cholera may live indefinitely in the

AMERICAN RIGHTS SUSTAINED.
Root Proves Gloucester Fishermen
May Fish Off Newfoundland.

Washington, Oct. 20. - After a con-
ference between Secretary Root and Sir
Mortimer Durand, the British ambas-
sador, lasting for an hour and half,
it was announced that speedy and
satisfactory solution of the Gloucester
Newfoundland fisheries controversy was
in sight. The facts obtained showed
that the Newfoundland inspector of
revenue protection service directed that
American vessels should not be allowed
to fish under American register, on the
ground that they had never done so in
the past. Prior to this time the Amer
lean fishermen had bought bait in New
foundland under fishing license. They
are now prevented by law from buying
bait, and the authorities have been un-
willing to permit them to catch herring
without a special fishing license.
Mr.. Root informed the ambassador
that an American register is a ships
highest proof of nationality, and carries
with 1T not only license to trade. but
also regular fishing license.
AS soon as this fact is made clear To
The Newfoundland authorities, it is ex-
pected they will withdraw all obiec-
lion. Meantime, the American fisher
men, with the approval of the State
department., have been instructed to
their fishing.
