GRIP IS
FASTENED AGAIN
ON IN D "A
MORE THAN A MILLION STARVING
NATIVES ARE BEING FED BY
THE GOVERNMENT-iNSURREc.
TIoN is GROWING.

SIMLA, India. May 2S.-lndia Is in
the grip Of another great famine.
which has combined with the growing
insurrectionary movement and the
frontier war To make the Indian gov
ernment's task an unenviable one. At
present the government is providing
free food or relief employment for
100000 starving natives.
The present famine is considered as
an alarming sign Of greater disasters
in the future, for IL is a very ominous
thing for 1,000,000 people 10 be starv-
ing at time when the winter crops
have Just been harvested. What this
forebodes for the barren season 10 come
can be imagined IL Is gloomily proph-
esied that there will be 100000
starving people 70 provide for-an
impossible task even for the great
famine relief organization.
The wretched peasants who are COM
PEELED TO accept government, relief
have for months been in state Of
semistarvation, and when they come
10 the relief stations or depots are lit
orally living skeletons. No more mis-
part of the world.
The recurrence OF these terrible
famines is due 10 several causes. most
ly attributable TO the influence OF the
British government. Four-fifths of the
population are now entirely depen-
dent on capricious crops for their sus-
tenance, and although great irrigation
works have been carried out, the state
OF agriculture is still very unstable.
Each peasant cultivates a little patch
OF land, which supplies the bare living
for himself and family. When the
crop fails they are faced with starva'
ton. The British regime provides
regular employment tor only frac-
ton of the natives, while IL has killed
a great deal OF the native industry.
and has imposed other conditions on
the people which work against the
prosperity OF the natives. The taxes
are high. and the economic system
imposed by British rule is unsuited TO
the conditions of native life.
Besides the millions OF peasants who
are liable to starvation at the slight
est failure OF the crops, there is an
enormous population OF beggars and
voorhees, people whose condition Is
entirely hopeless during famine.
Many thousands of these are doomed
10 a lingering death from inanition.
The condition OF the poor creatures
affected by the famine is pitiful be-
yond words. Those who are forced
TO apply for government relief have
been already living for months on
half or quarter their usual allowance
OF food Long experience has Injured
them to living on next 10 nothing.
Many families have been living on a
daily handful of dried peas, occasion
ally varied by wild fruit and roots. or
even less paratable food.
The famine being spread over vast
territory. thousands OF the natives are
miles from a government relief depot.
and many OF them die because they
cannot drag their wasted bodies TO the
depots. For every thousand persons
who get relief, there must be as many
who are too weak, or perhaps too
proud. to apply for ii.

HUNGARIAN "MAGNATES"

Discovery is not so good for
acute coughs arising from sudden
colds, nor must it be expected to
cure consumption in its advanced
stages-no medicine will do that
but for all the obstinate hang-on.
or chronic coughs, which, if neg
lected, or badly treated, lead up to
consumption, 1t Is the best med
icine that can be taken.
It's an insult to your intelli.
gence for a dealer TO endeavor 10
palm off upon you some nostrum
of Hnkn0In composition in place of
DR.. Pierce world famed medicines
which are OF KNOWN COMPOSITION.
Most dealers recommend Doctor
Pierce's medicines because they
know what they are made of and
that the ingredients employed are
among the most valuable that a
medicine for like purposes can be
made of. The same is true Of
leading physicians who do not hes
itate 10 recommend them, since
they know exactly what they con-
tain and that their ingredients are
the very best known to medical
science for the cure of the several
diseases for which these medicines
are recommended.
With tricky dealers 1t is diff.
ferent.
Something else that pays them
little greater profit will be urged
upon you as "just as good" or even
better. You can hardly afford TO
accept a substitute Of nnkno7on COM
position and without any particular
record of cures in place of Doctor
Pierce's medicines which are OF
KNOWN COMPOSITION and have
record of foyty years Of o4res behind
them. You know what you want
and it is the dealers business to
supply that want. Insist upon ii.

Gen. Stephen u. Lee was the last

Although a soldier, the great grand

Columbus, Miss, and as president OF
the Mississippi Agricultural and Me.
chanical college. Since the close OF
the war he worked constantly to build
up the waste places OF the south. He
rarely accepted political office.
Gen. Lee held that the memory OF
the old confederate soldiers was a
peculiar trust committed TO the living
confederate soldiers.
