RESTORING EGYPT.

THE Egyptian Government under English direction is slowly
rehabiitating Egypt. The old reservoirs are being
cleaned, new ones are being constrncted; the Nile, which has
been a vagrant for centuries, is being harnessed again-Egypt is
liable to become again the granary of the Old World. A per-
petual interest cln2s to Egypt. On the Eastern Continent
civilization had its birth there. Some of the most wonderful
history of all time, sacred and profane, was made there; science
had its birth there, science and architecture, and then those who
have Travelled much assert that nothing on earth is so
impressive as that mighty Nile and the valley that draws
its life from the river. The silence of the nearby desert
seems to have left it's impress there. and in the stiffness one can
hear the tread of armies that for centuries have been dust, the
cries of Captains most renowned in all the worlds history.
Aexande, Cambyses, Scipio, Caesar, Saladin, Napoleon, are but a
few of them; then in thought long lines of kings shake off their
cerements and stalk before us, and the line stretches back until
history itself taints and faltcrs and is lost in the distance and
the silence. 1t is a fiction among stockmen that sometimes OUT
up IN the plains the silence becomes SO profound that it takes on
a presence of terror, under which the herds become panicstrckcn
and rush away in a wild stampede. That presence broods over
Egypt. draws its mantle around the pyramids and the sphynx,
and those who have felt it say that through it comes to them the
story of he tremendous past that stretches back thousands of
years before the Red Sea opened to make a path for Gods people
and a grave for Pharaoh and his host. 1t was in that mood
that Martineau longed for a great wind such as would blow
away the sand which buries the monuments of Egypt and said:
Zone statue and one sarcophagus, brought from Memphis was
b, rid one hundred and thirty feet below the surface. Who
knows but the greater part of Memphis and of other glorious
cities, lie almost unframed under che sand? Who can saw what
armies of sphynxes, what sentinels of colossi, might start M on
the banks of the river, or come forth from the hiIlsides of the in
terror when the clouds OF sand have been waited away? There
might be ranges OF pylons, miles Of colonade, temples intact, and
gods and goddesses safe in their sanctuarles. What quavs along
the Nile and the banks of forgotten canals. What terraces and
flights of wide, shallow steps! What architectural stvles might
we not find for a thousand miles along the river!"-Go ID Twins

EAT WHAT YOU LIKE.
Don't Starve or Diet, but use Milo ma, and
Cure Your stomach troubles.

Don't Starve or Diet, but use Milo ma, and
Cure Your stomach troubles.
The average treatment of stomach
troubles consists of rigid diet list, which
often half starveS the patient. OF course it
would be foolish for anyone who knows
that some foods are positively harmful and
poisonous to continue eating them, even
while following the Mi-o-na treatment, but
in ordinary cases of stomach troubles it is
not necessary to starve Or diet if Milo ma is
faithfully used, q tablet before each meal.
This scientific remedy, for the cure of
stomach troubles, acts upon the whole
digestive system, and strengthens the
organs so that they are able to digest any
food that is eaten without fear of distress
If you suffer from loss ofappetite, belching
of gases, sour taste in the mouth, furred
tongue, severe pains in the region Of the
stomach, depression of spirits, bad dreams,
lack of energy, stomach cough, offensive
breath, headaches, back aches, loss of
strength and weight, you can be assured
that these troubles are all due to imperfect
digestion.
Strengthen the stomach by taking a
Mi-O-na tablet before each meal, and soon
you will gain in weight, strength will re-
turn, and your food will give nOurishment
SO that the rich red blood will carry good
health to every part OF the system.
X. II. Moody has so much confidence in
the power of Mi-o-na to cure stomach
troubles and resulting ills, that he gives q
guarantee with every 80 cent box to refund
the money unless it cures.

Democrats Elect the Mayor and Majority
of the City Council.

The annual city election Monday, March
18th. passed off rather quietly. The result
is given in the returns below. The first
demonstration over the Democratic victory
was the ringing of the Universalist church
bell about O'Clock. In the evening the
Opera House was opened, the Belfast Band
engaged, and a jubilation meeting held.
While the meeting was in progress about 9
p. m. a fire alarm was sounded from Dox 70,

evening. In other cities there are severe
penalties for meddling with the fire alarm,

kind is needed here
