fortune. Among his requests was one of
$500. 900 to the town of Marseille for the
purpose Of building a white marble foun-
tain in honor of Latin in general and Of
the work of Sallust in particular. This
curious bequest had its even more curious
rea son, for NJ. Cantini who started life
with the proverbial shoestring, owed his
fortune to a quotation from Sallust.
On his way to Marseille to which town
he was trudging on foot, Cantint met a
village priest. The two fell into CONVEX
sation. and the priest mentioned to Can
TIM that Sallust had spoken OF large
marble quarries in the north of Africa.
Cantini, being of an inquiring mind, got
passage across the Mediterranean, and
went to look for the quarries. He found
them, borrowed some money bought them
and made millions.
NJ. Delaney, the new project Of the

view to helping labor unions. the ex

come the headquarters of revolutionarles
and anti-militarists. The project does
not see why a building kept up by the
taxpayers should become the center of a
detestable propa ganda. Anti-mili tariSt
carpenters and joiners had arranged a
meeting at the exchange for the purpose
of addressing young labor union SITS VINO
are about to put in their military service.
The speeches delivered at these gather
ings take the form of offering advice to
young conscripts to discharge their rifles
in the air should they be called upon to
take part in war.
There has been a great deal of this sort
of thing recently, and the authorities are
determined that the mischievous propa-
ganda shall get no announcement at the
exchange. Henceforth the anti-mllitarist
labor unionsts will have to hold their
meetings in obscure cafes.

The greatest discomforts of old age
are DOOR eyesight, deafness, lame back,
stiff. achy Joints and urinary Ills.
Most often these troubles come from
a weakening of the kidneys.
The kidneys have a heavy task dur
ing a long life of fItering the blood
and keeping the body free from the
Irritating effects of uric acid. Kidney
weakness usually gets little attention
and it IL no wonder IL the kidneys
break down.
And when the kidneys are sluggish
and weak there f. little comfort.
Backache is likely to become a con-
slant trouble, lameness In the morn
ing, pains when stopping or lifting,
restlessness at night, too frequent and
painful passages Of the kidney secre-
lions and persistent languOr.
Rheumatic pains, stiff joints, dizzy
SPELLS and weakness of sight and hear
ing are often due to the excess Of uric
acid in the blood. So are gravel and
stone, dropsy swellings of the limbs
and extremities, heart weakness.

great blessing to many old folks, be-

Twelve Blind Men to Drive Away
the Wicked Spirits.

From the Japan Advertiser
Viscount Min Yunhui, living in Kyo-
dong north ward, who was at one time
vice president of the Oriental Develop
ment Company, was recently taken i'll
and grew worse day after day.
He sent for an old woman reputed to
be the best fortune teller in Korea for
consultation and was told that his NAL
ady was the result Of some wicked
spirits attacking his body and soul. The
old woman further told the afflicted
Korean nobleman that in order to recover
his health it was necessary to drive away
the evil spirits by holding a religious
ceremony on Wolmi Island, near Chemul-
po, for three days. the ceremony to be
conducted by twelve blind men,
Viscount Min at once caused twelve
blind men to be collected, and, led by the
old female fortune teller. these men went
down to Chemulpo some days ago. They
then proceeded to Wolmi Island, where
they prayed to the gods for three days
and nights by beating drums and other
wise making a great noise

The Stepmother.
From the Boston Globe.

From the Boston Globe.
The statement was made by a physi-
clan at an inquest in London that all
stepmothers are instinctinvely cruel to
stepchildren.
A false accusation!
The American who reads it will recall
at once the boyhood of Abraham Lin
coin. He had a stepmother. Night after
night she used to take him upon her
knee In the rude frontier cabin and teach
him to read by the Pickering light of a
fire log. She it was who. in spirit Of the
opposition Of the father, scrimped and
saved that Abe might go to school. No
natural mother ever surpassed her as the
guardian angel of a child.
Sally Bush Lincoln was not unique.
There were other kind stepmothers In
her time, and There are kind stepmothers
today, the English doctor to the con-
rary notwithstanding.

PARIS. October 21-At a time when all
Europe is in state of turmoil and fer
ment, 1T would have been reassuring to
know that the Franco-German differ
ences in Morocco had been peaceably and
finally settled, but powerful voices are
now being raised against settlement on
terms Involving the loss of a great part
of fertile French Kongo
Nj. Gabriel HanotauX, in the current is

presses his conviction that the triple en-
tente will commit a grave error in al
lowing a ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS accord to
be concluded at the expense of France,
for the consequences on the ensemble of
the international situation will be roper
cussions that perhaps may not be the
least surprising result of the crisis"
NJ. Hanotaux, the foreign minister who
concluded the Russian alliance, thinks it
mockery to talk of France being the
mistress Of the Mediterranean in pos
sessing Morocco The treaty concluded
with Great Britain and Spain in 1904 d-
minished the Morocco of the geogra-

tons. Instead of pacificatlon, the seed

tauX will prove to he a prophet.
The recent disaster at Toulon has
brought to a elimination the disuuietude
and nervousness that for several years
have been felt in the French navy. No
one was more severe than NJ Decasse at
the time of the lena explosion. 1t is for
him now to elucidate the mystery that en-
ShrOuds so many naval calamities There
is no solid reason to support the charges
made against Capt. Jaures: the fact that
he Is the brother of the socialist leader
quite accounts for the attacks made on
the commander of La Liberte. Equally
futile, too. are the endeavors to attribute
the catastrophe to anarchists. The
prompt action of Admiral Bellue fully
explains everything. He is convinced
that powder b is the 'fons ct origo
malorum,'' and. acting that conviction,
he ordered the Immediate removal of the
powder from every warship in the road
stead M. Jean Louis Dumont. in the
Eclar. states positively, and without fear
of contradiction, that the powders on the
Liberte left the factories in 1894, 1896 and
1897 THE account books of the COM
missariat prove the fact beyond all dis
pute." All powder was on all the French
warshps the purpose being to use it in
firing exercise. They were crammed
with it for the recent naval review. Adj
miral Bellue's initiative. therefore, was
imperative and government officers signi-
fed their approval.

Training for Consuls.

Following the example of the L. S.
State Department, the German govern
ment has established a regular school for
candidates for appointment in the consul
lar service Funds for the school were
largely provided by exporting firms, whose
cooperation in the instruction of the flu
ture consuls also has been sought, the
aim of the department being to give
them practical business training and ex
perience instead of the bureaucratic edu-
cation they have hitherto received as at
taches for a year in the commercial sec
ton of the ministry. Business men and
professors from the universities and tech
nical schools will cooperate in the train

meters away. Though a Meridional. NJ.
Fallieres has few of the characteristics
He has neither the expansive eloquence
nor fine theatrical air of Gambetta. On
the other hand, his qualities are of the
north; hard common sense, a calm COM
prehenSion of facts, the mot juSte" for
all situations. His Loupillon visit. which
vintage, enables him to fling off ceremony
and adopt those simple habits which he
practices as much as possible in the
severe official atmosphere of Rambouil-

try folks to whom he is personally at

brimmed hat and easy clothes of the

the gathering Of the grapes. and his vines
have more than a local celebrity. The
chief magistrate is to be accompanied
by NJ. Pans, minister of agriculture, who,
doubtless, will take a professional inter-
est in the operations on the presidential
estate.
A large manufacturer of the north
made the remark to me few days ago:
m. Fallieres has learned his meter of
president" 1t is perfectly true. He be-
gan with certain shyness, as 1t seemed,
which was interpreted as Indifference.
but today he has the sure touch of an
accomplished chief of state. His speeches
are sound, and have the large. patriotic
note. Is NJ Loubet to succeed him in q
years time? The rumor, which sounds a
little unlikely considering the age of the
past president is circulated by a local
paper at Montelimar. the town closely
associated with M. Loubet's early life.
The journal says that its distinguished
townsman is taking steps to enter the
senate, whence 1t concludes that he will
be the official candidate at Versailles
However. / think it much more likely
that NJ. Caillaux, the present premier,
will embody the hopes of ministerial re-
publicans. He is comparatively young
and has proved himself strong man in
his handling of the Franoo-German situa-
ton as well as in his resolution to pield
nothing to the menace of the socialists,
who wished to parade last Sunday in the
streets. AS an orator as well as a man
of action he shows considerable power.
