Sometimes a flaming city is saved by

cross. Sometimes cough hangs on so
long you feel as if nothing but dynamite
would cure it. u. L. Gray, OF Calhoun.

waited cough, which kept her awake
nights. Two physicians could not help
her so she took DIR. Kings New Discov-
cry for Consumption, Coughs and Colds,

Why Suffer From Rheumatism?

Why suffer from rheumatism when one
application of ChamberlainIs Pain Balm
will relieve the pain? The quick relief
which this liniment affords makes rest
and sleep possible, and that alone is
worth many times its cost. Many who
have used it hoping only for short re-
lief from suffering have been happily
surprised to lind that after awhile the
relief became permanent. Mrs " H.
Leggett of Yum Yum, Tennessee, u. S.
a. writes: III am great sufferer from
rheumatism, all over from head to fool,
and Chamberlain's Pain Balm is the on
~ thing that will relieve the pain" For

BEGGARS IN INDIA.
They Are Fast Disappearing - Only
About Five Million Left.

The beggar nuisance Is a very COM.
mon II In India, and the endcavors Of
the police In the large cities to put 1t
down have met with only IL limited
measure Of success. This is no doubt
due to the fact that Indian opinion is
remarkably tolerant toward sturdy beg
gars. especially If they wear the gulse
Of religion. But there Is reason to be-
lleve that a wholesome change is COM
ing over the public sentiment in this
as In SO many other matters. There
were about 100000 beggars in the
country at the time Of the last census,
and nearly one-tifth Of the number was
classcd as religious mendicants. The
number. large as it Is. represented Il de
crease Of about Z per cent from TINT
Mt the previous census and the decline
has been attributed In part to the COM
paratively heavy mortality among them
during the famine years. But. says the
report, 1T is also partly attributable
to the spread Of education and the IN
seQuent weaker hold which the SO call
cd ascetics have on the imagination Of
the people," 1t being much less easy
than 1t was formerly for the members
Of the various begging communities to
unloose the purse strings Of the people.
There Is. happily. reason to believe
that the changed feeling among the ed
ucated classes Is altering down to the
lower levels. This evil IA not confined
10 n particular community or religion.
II Is rs rampant among the Mohammed-
ans as among the lIindOos. The Stnr
Jadid. at ably conducted vernacular
paper, published in upper india. dealing
with questions OF social reform among
M0hammedans, has been forcibly call
Ing the attention OF Its coreligionists
to the necessity Of a reform In their no
tiOns Of charity. Our contemporary
shows by n reference to the Police Ga

beEgars under surveillance has been

AN CUSTOM.
How the Curious Law About Closing
Houses at Night Operates.
tTo BE Continued


One of the oldest of the Austrian
customs Is the result OF legislation. Ac.
cording to law, every house must be
closed from 10 O'Clock at night until G
o'clock the following morning. During
that time each house Is in charge of an
attendant known as the "hausbesOr.
ger" or caretaker. In large apartment
buildings this hausbesorger is usually a
uniformed porter. Every person enter.
ing the house between 10 ut night and
G in the morning must pay to the haus.
besOrger 20 hellers q cents.
This gives rise to Il curious condition.
Naturally the man who comes home nj
early hours need not necessarily pay
anything. while the man who habitual.
ly gets in Mt . or 3 in the morning is n
frequent contributor to the hausbesor.

hausbesOrger concerning Mr.. a may

he is a most disreputable. mean sort OF

THE CHOlERA.


myster1o0S Influences Which Retar0'
Or Accelerate Its Progress.
The sudden appearance Of cholera In
eastern Prussia and the presence Of
sixty or more cases Of the disease
among Russian cnlgrant1 In Hamburg
awaiting transportation TO America
give cause not for popular alarm, but
for Increased watchfulness on the part
Of our sanitary guardians.
Epidemiologists have for some time
been watching this gradual advance Of
cholera from the east on one Of It's Pc
riodlcal incursions into western Eu-
rope. The movement began In the Int.
ter part Of 1890. Eastward the disease
advanced from India rapidly, invading
China and Japan. From Hongkong 1t
passed to the Philippines. working
havoc In Manila and the provinces de.
spite the best efforts OF the medical Of.
fcers Of the army and marine hospital
service.
Its progress westward through Ara.
bia and Persia into Russia has been
more gradual. Cholera appeared In
Mecca in 1902 and thence spread
throughout che Mussulman world, be.
ing heard Of in Egypt, Asia Minor and
Persia, finally establishing itself firmly
In Teheran. From this point II follow

influence the nature of which students
Of epidemics have yet discov-
cred, and only now has It resumed It's
march westward.
Why should 1t have remained 40 long
in Russia and then suddenly crossed
the frontier? Raftsmen were coming
down the Vistula past Thorn and
Kuhn. and emigrants were leaving Po-
land and western Russia for Hamburg
and Bremen, sailing thence for New
York. but the disease remained be-
hind. The Russian health ofacials did

the infection refused to spread. Sud
