Hts V0tce rang quietly True and COM
handing
Z thinking man must possess a deep Sig
nificance
With his usual quiet persistence he
pointed out the peculiar position of
Meshed in the distant province of
Khorassan, its vast distance from the
Persian gulf, round which British in
terests and influence center, and the
consequently alarming position of hun
dreds of traders who In the security
of British sovereignty, are fighting
their way upward from India, from
Afghanistan, even from England her
self.
Following up his point, he dilated on
these subjects OF the British crown
who, cut off from adequate assistance,
can only turn in personal or CONNER
cial peril to the protective power of
the nearest consulate. Then, quietly
demanding the attention of his hear
ers, he marshaled fact after fact to
demonstrate the isolation and made
quacy of consulate so situated; the
all but arbitrary power of Russia, who
In her new occupation of Meshed had
only two considerations to withhold
her from open aggression-the knowl-
edge Of England as very consider
able, but also a very distant power;
the knowledge of Persia as an imml
nent, but wholly impotent, factor in
the case
Having stated his opinions, he re-
verted to the motive of his speech-his
desire to put forward a strong protest
against the adjournment Of the house
without an assurance from the govern
ment that immediate measures would
be taken to safeguard British interests
tn Meshed and throughout the province
Of Khorass,.n.
The immediate outcome Of Loder's
speech was all that his party had de-
sired The effect on the house had been
marked, and when, no satisfactory re-
Spouse coming to his demand, he had
In still more resolute and insistent
terms called for a division on the mo-
lion for adjournment, the result had
been an appreciable fall in the govern
ment majority.
To Loder himself the realization that
he had at last INDICATED and justified
himself by individual action had pc
ruliar effect. His position had been al
tered in one remarkable particular. |
Before this day he alone had known
himself to be strong: now the knowl-
edge was shared by others and he was
human enough to be susceptible to the !
change.
The first appreciation of 1t came i'm
mediately after the excitement OF the
division, when Frade, singing him
out. took his arm and pressed 1t affec-
honately.

into his face, he added in a graver
tone, "but keep your mind upon the
future; never be blinded by the pres
snt, however bright It seems"
At the touch of his hand, at the spon-
taneous approval of his first words, Lo-
her's pride thrilled. and in a vehement
rush Of ambition his senses answered
10 the praise Then, as Fralde In all
Inconsistencies added his second SEN
tence, the hot glow of feeling suddenly
chilled.
In n sweep of intutive reaction
the meaning and the danger of his
falsely roal position extinguished his
excitement and turned his triumph
old. With an involuntary gesture be
withdrew his arm.

VALUE OF RIGHT BREATHING
Health Comes From Knowing How
and What TO Breathe.

Dust laden with the germs of con-
sumption or other disease is inhaled
by all who use the streets, but disease
is not developed unless the germs find
conditions suitable for their Judgment
and growth.
With people having catarrh there is
an ideal culture medium for these
germs. as the irritated membrane and
weakened tissues is a hot-bed where
germs must thriYe and multiply until
they are numerohs and active.
If you have casarrh, you should use
the easiest, simplest and quickest cure,
the direct method of Hyomei, whose
wonderful medicated air is taken in
with the air you breathe. directly fol-
lowing and destroying all germs that
have been inhaled, repairing any dam
age they may have worked and so
healing and vitalizing the tissues as to
render catarrh and germ infection no
longer possible.
The unusual way in which Hyomei
is sold should dispel all doubt as to
it's curative properties, for Summers
pharmacy offer to refund the price to
anyone whom it fails to benefit. You
do not risk cent in testing the heal
ing virtues of this breath of life, for
with every $1.o0 outfit Summers phar-
macy give guarantee to relieve
catarrh or money refunded.

To Remedy Damp Walls.

The following simple process IS
said to emectually do away with all
dampness of walls. Applications are
made alternately of dissolved CASTLE
soap and dissolved alum. Three
fourths Of a pound of soap is melted
in n gallon of boiling water. The
liquid thus obtained is thoroughly
beaten to cause a stiff froth. This
and the water are then completely
incorporated by stirring aad made
boiling hot The time for preparing
the wall should be after a long dry
spell, and as the wall must be as free
from moisture as possible this condi.
ton can be assisted by the Judicious
use of fires. Them brush the surface
to be covered until as clean as posi-
bic With a wide fat brush coat the
surface with the boiling soap prepar-
atfony working it back and forth I'M
til the wall is covered with small bub-
bles- Let it remain twenty-four hours
to dry out, then apply an alum solu-
ton made by dissolving half a. pound
of aEum In four gallons. of water.
The alum coating may be nearly at
blood heat This should stand a day
or two. to- dry and harden; then an
other application of soap, the same
as the first, must be put on. How
many coats are needed depends on
the condition of the wall; sometimes
half a dozen would be necessary,
says WomEn's Life. The soap and
alum form a coating insolubIe in
water, and this unites with the ma
terlaE in the wall, filing all OF the
icreVices and making a thoroughly
waterproof surface.-New York Tel,

Less Hog Cholera.

There seems to be decidedly less
trouble with hog cholera the last two
or three years than formerly There
are several reasons for this First
and foremost, farmers are learning to
retain their old brood sows longer,
which tends to- give more constitution
for the offspring. They are also
learning to feed the brood sow and
her litter moEetof a mixed ration, in.
other words, more of a balanced ra-
ton, which means they are feeding
for good, rich blood, which will con-
tain plenty OF bone, muscle and nerve
food.
Hog raisers now have come to see
the necessity of summer pastures,
which also means healthier pigs as
well as cheaper pork. I have no.
doubt that hog cholera will again ap-
pear some time, for men will forget
their past experience and fall back
into the old ruts. We are about as
forgetful to-day as were the children
Of Israel in olden times. We look
back at them and say, why should
they need be told over and over the
same thing? Why should they not
remember their past experiences and
keep in the right road ever after
ward? Men have not changed much,
and we forget the sad experience of
the past just about as quickly.
In the main, however, we are pro.
pressing, and 7 am fully of the belief
that cholera will gradually become a
thing of the past as hog raisers come
to understand their animals better
and keep in closer touch with ma
lures laws and obey them. Health.
Ter hogs will also have a tendency to
increase the consumption of hog pro-
ducts. So We need not fear that pork
raising will be oVerdone.-Southern
Cultivator.
