THE FALL OF MAN.
East African Natives Have IA Legene
That Tells the story.

That Tells the story.
Among the Nasal, a native tribe in
German East Africa, is found the fol
lowing story of the creation, which, ac-
cording to DR.. Emil Reich, they could
not have got from missionaries. DR..
Reich thinks that the Christian, Nasal
and Babylonlan accounts had a com
mon origin in Arabia: "In the begin
ming the earth was waste and bar
rem wilderness in which there dwelt q
dragon alone. Then God came down
from heaven, fought with the dragon
and yanqulshed it. From the dragons
blood, which was water, the barren
rock wilderness was made fertile, and
the spot where the struggle between
God and the dragon took place became
paradise. Thereafter God created all
things-sun, moon, stars, plants and
beasts and finally two human beings
The man was sent down from heaven
and was called Maitumbe, and the wo-
man, Naltergorob, sprang from the
bosom of the earth.
God led them into paradise, where
they lived an untroubled existence. OF
all the fruits therein they might eat by
Gods permission; of one tree alone
they might not taste. Often God came
down to see them, when he climbed
down a ladder from heaven. But one
day he was unable for long time to
find them, but finally discovered them
crouching among the bushes. On being
asked the meaning of his conduct Mai
Tumble replied that they We're ashamed
because they had eaten of the forbid
den fruit 'Naltergorob gave me of the
| fruit he said, and persuaded me to
eat 1t after she had eaten Of it herself
"Naitergorob sought to excuse herself
by saying, The three headed serpent
came to me and said that by tasting
the fruit we should become like unto
thee and almighty Then was 'Ngai
GOD wroth and banished the two first
human beings from paradise He sent
Rilegen, the morning star, to drive man
out of paradise and to keep watch
thereover."

and the nomination came to him last

In the city in which he has grown

men better known, and none who
stands higher in the public esteem. An
ideal representative of the laboring
classes in every sense Of the word. he
has always held the interests of the
toilers and the cause of union labor
near TO his heart. He has been a
leader in whatever contributed to the

paved the way for the advance from
sea: we are amazed at the daring rs
saults on Nanshan hill. on the forts
around Port Arthur. and the victories
won against the far-famed Kuropatkin,
now known as the master strategist in
retreat.
Once again, when the remarkable
stories of the limited mortalities as a
result Of sickness and wounds were
published. the nations of the world
marveled that the "half-civilized" Jap
anese should know so well how to treat
disease and reduce TO a minimum never
before reached in warfare or in times
Of peace, the death ratio in disease.
Man for man. the little brown sol
diers Of their beloved mikado are driv-
ing the great hulking soldiers Of the
car before them, as they have rarely
been driven before. We have stories
Of their remarkable heroism every day;
batteries have no terrors for them;
life itself is held cheap in the service
of their nation; fatigue is circun-
stance; hunger must wait for satisfac-
ton until the strategy of the command
ing generals is carried out. while in
their lexicon there is no such word as
surrender.

them?
Napoleon won many of his victories
through getting his forces in the right
place by forced marches, turning up
where they were least expected. He
was a past master OF the science of
mobility. and Oyama is handling his
troops with much the same skill ex-

has not been acquired by the Japanese.

THE MONTHLY TRIAL
HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, BEARING
DOWN PAINS.
A Woman Tells How She Has Become
Well and Strong After Years of
Misery Due to Irregular
Functions.

The fact that one woman is bright
eyed, rosy-cheeked. strong and cheer
full, while another is pale, weak and de-
pressed is due more often than other
wise to the regularity in the one case
and the irregular.ty in the other of the
functions that are peculiar 10 the sex.
When these are disturbed everything
goes wrong; pain and discomfort are
felt all over the body; the sensations
are often terrifying.
If all women so afflicted would fol
low the example of Mrs Davis they
would soon escape these trials She
had a long experience of the most
wretched feelings. She tried doctor
after doctor unsuccessfully and exper-
imented with numerous preparations
advertised to cure female complaints.
and then at last she found one medi-
cine of genuine merit.
For four years." said Mrs. Davis

cry from sick headache every month,

any one of them. Besides used a lot
of remedies advert sed TO cure fe-
male complaints. The only medicine,
however, that had the desired effect
was DR.. Williams Pink Pills. and they
are truly a godsend to women"
After SO many disappointment it
is wonder that you had courage left
to try anything"
MY husband got them for me on
the recommendation of a friend. but
