A WONDERFUL
DISCOVERY.
An Interesting History Of One
Of the Most Popular
Household Remedies.
USED IN THE EARLY AGES.

From the dim dawn of antiquity, the
peoples of the earth have utilized the
twigs and leaves of the camphor tree as
potent factor in relieving and healing
the many ills which the human flesh is
heir TO, : In the early stages of civiliza
ton the heathens used camphor in a
crude form, and through centuries that
have passed it has come down 10 succeed
ing ages, priceless heritage. The
natives of the far east anointed their
bodies with this product as one of the
first and most simple remedies. From
time to time camphor has been combined
with other chemical compounds and used
for the treatment of both external aud
internal ailments, though its chief virtue
Is as an external preparation.

SAYS LEOPOLD TRIED BRIBERY
Briton Declares King Attempted to
Silence Congo Missionaries.

Washington, Dec. 10 Bribery is
being attempted by King Leopold of
Belgium to silence the missionaries
in the Congo Free State and prevent
further denunciation of the atroci-
ties which are being perpetrated up
on the natives. according to the
charge made by DR.. II. Grafton GUM
ness, an Englishman, head of the
Congo Balolo Mission. now in Wash
ington lecturing to awaken public
indignation.
Last summer Sir Alfred Jones,
the Congo consul general to Great
Britain, called on me in London,
said DR.. Guinness. "Sir Alfred, who
was accompanied by Sir Ralph
Moore. a former governor of Nige-
ria in the Congo. stated to me that
King Leopold had authorized him TO
offer me a directorate free of charge
and a position that would bring me
IA large income in company he
wanted to form to conduct a rubber
business in the Congo. Sir Alfred ex-
planned that tn king wanted a
British company to do some of the
rubber operating, and for this pur-
pose he offered to give a 10000
square mile tract in the Congo re-
gion known as the lbia."
Dr.. Guinness says he was as
founded by the offer, and that he in
dignantly declined it as an attempt
to gag him and his 112 missionaries
In The Congo by making them par
ties to the atrocities committed upon
the natives.
Dir. Guinness also asserts that
agents OF King Leopold attempted to
poison Baccari, the Italian who had
knowledge of the deplorable state OF
affairs in the Congo. He charges that
torture of the natives continues and
that they are being i'll treated and
murdered upon the same appalling
scale today as months ago, before
the disclosures were made.

Louis James.

The rarity of Shakespearean comedy nowadays makes the ad- vent of Louis James in 'The Mer- rv Wives of Windsor' all the more welcome for it is seldom that an actor is seen ill a character that seems so absolutely in accord with the individual as the character of Fat Sir John Falstaff to Louis James, and while some may accuse the sun of having spots. vet in as much as there is only one sun. the spots are pardonable. So with Fal- staff, while he is not a paragon of modestN. yet his short-cemin@s arc so few. and his virtues so many. he is readily forgiven.
 Alr James is said to give an inn pr"ssionistic portrayal of Falsta aH and this coming from one of the best critics ill America is most sig niticant.
 His company is headed by Nellie McHenry and Norman Hackett is said to be especially well chosen and competent, and the production q most magnificent and expensive one. At the Elks theater soon.

For years he kicked about the way
Corruption had been reigning;
He swore that swiftly, day by day,
Bad government was gaining.
All day, all night, asleep, awake,
The evils he was noting;
Then made the usual mistake
Forgot the need of voting.
Each day but one throughout the year
He howled for reformation;
Election day he'd disappear
And cease his agitation
He said wrongs made him sick at heart
And filled him with detection;
And then he'd fail to do his part
BY voting on election.
