Rheumatism

"My mother is a great sufferer
from rheumatism, and DR.. Miles
Anti-Pain Pills is the only remedy
that relieve her"
MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Royeeheld, N. J.
For the pains of rheumatism there
is nothing that can equal
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills.
They overcome that nervous irri-
tation, relieve the pain and swelling,
while they have tendency to ailay
fever. If taken as directed they are
invaluable to chronic sufferers, as
the weakening effect of pain is less
ened. Try them-your druggist
sells them.

1t seems the anti.vivisectionists
in New York are leading a crusade

1t seems the auti.vivisectionists
10 New York are leading a crusade
against the practice Of making
medical and surgical experiments
on living animals in the interest of
the science that tends to avert the
ills that beset humanity that may
spread all over the country, and
exert a'stron9 influence in the leg
islatures of the states for the adop
ton Of laws sRainst the practice.
We may say that the anti ti-vivisec-
tionists are sentimentalists who
view the question simply from one
point-cruelty to animals. No
one can read Mark Twain's little
story, "A Dogs Tale," which re
counts the experience and anguish
of \ mother dog whose one little
puppy has fallen into the hands Of
an experimenting scientist, withou,
being moved sIln,s. to teari, and
imbusd with something of
the feelings that move the anti.
vivisectionists. Blu, there is some
thing to DO said TN the other side.
IL there q human mother who
would throw the life of her child
in the scale With that of dog,
guinea pig or other animala 2
Would she value the one 10 more
than the other2 What mother has
not had her heart stand still with
fear Of being q awakened in the night
by the croupy cough Of her little
child, with the dread of diphtberia
in her mind. BY experimentation
ON animals medical science has
found remedy for this dreaded
disease that has reduced the death
rate from it to almost nothing,
whereas, before the discovery of
the anti diphtheria serum the moth
er of nearly every child ,ha, was
seized with the disease had her
very soul wrung with anguish as
she hung over her child, seeing i,
grow black in the face as it slowly
but surely choked to death. Small
pox, hydrophobia, spinal menin
getis and other diseases, once re-
garded a. almost surely fatal,
haye lost much of their terrors t.
mankind through scientific expert
mentation upon lower animals.
This 10 the other side of the anti.
vivisection question, and between
the two it should not be difficult
for intelligent people to decide at
10 whether they want a legal re
straint upon further experiments
ton on living animals in the inter-
est OF suffering humanity.

The mints at Philadelphia, San Fran

ing a new 1--WE dollar gold piece struck
on a different plan from any hereto
fore coined In the world. It follows
an idea expressed to President Roose-

of Boston that to permit the coins being
piled to a uniform height high or
strong relief might be obtained By de-
pressing the design below the field or
face of the coin instead Of raising It
above, as. usual In all coming opera

This would provide a fat Geld and
a uniform thickness, the dat surface

lowing the outline Of the relief. The
same design win be used on the $3.50
pieces, and all will bear TN God We

countersinking relief is one Of the Old

Fat and Disease.

II the Medical Record Is right, man

weight what Is bad for him, common
trick, and woman pines for a physical
ideal that would mean long life Il
achieved, something rare indeed Tor
women to do. Most men struggle to
be fat. Most women diet to be lean
DR.. Brandreth Symonds draws from a
study Of life insurance weights that
people past the age Of thirty live long
er If below normal weight than they
do If at or above standard. Heart dis
ease is as rare among the underfat as
1t Is common with the heavy folk, and
this is true also Of Bright's disease,
apoplexy, paralysis, cerebral conges-
lions and cirrhosis Of the liver. Only
In pneumonia and tuberculosis DO the
underweights carry greater risk. In
all the cases which he examined DR..
Symonds found not single fat man
who reached the age Of eighty years,
while forty-four short weights passed
this mark.

Extract Of knowledge.

An article on ORGANIZATION Humor''
In a periodical called Normal Echoes
contains some good ''howlers." They
are none the less interesting for com
ing from students In training for teach
ers. A criticism OF william Blake that
"as a child he was precocious in po-
etry, but In later years 1t developed into
dogmattsm," is lesson In the art OF
being inarticulate, while the remark
that "the works Of the time were most
~ satyrs'' is quaint, though Obvious.
Of course there is boggling over proper
names. There is nothing, indeed, 20
good as the description Of Cromwell
as "a man with coarse features and
having a large red nose, with deep re-
ligious convictions beneath" or the
case of the Elapsed man" who, having
by way Of exception attended church,
admitted to the rector's wife that he
had benefited, for he had learned that
sodom and Gomorrah were two cities,
whereas he had always thought they
were man and wife. - Manchester

1.-THE most dramatic scene In General
Palma's long struggle TOR the freedom
d. Cuba may be said to have occurred
afters be was taken to Spain a. prts-

were put to him, among which wa;
q 'What Is your profession ? ~ To

1.-THE reply did not suit the Spanish
lnouisitors, and they repeated their
question with greater yigor, but got
the same reply, General Palma retain
ing his quiet but emphatic manner.
ne was 30 intense that his questioners
became excited and threatened tho
most severe punishment unless Gen.
eral Palma became more plastic, but
even this did not disturb him, TOR he
replied in the same way, adding: That

relation to his mother, who died from
the tortures visited upon her by the
spaniards back in 1873 General Pal

prison and naturally started to see his
aged parent. Upon arriving at Baya-

his mother had been confined by Span
