centuries as background, the flag Of

especial significance. The citation of
the Pope of Rome when he received

be imagined.
Whether the Pope will be able to
make the sturdy inhabitants Of Tri-
poll his subjects is another question.
All attempts to convert the African
aces of Mohammedan faith to Chris
tianity has been for the most part a
woeful failure. The Mohammedan
religion seems to be especially well
adapted to the African peoples. and
its spread among them Is said to be
very much more rapid at this time

A LESSON 10 PORK EATERS.

That there lives in the vicinity OF
Durham men with as little conscien-
tlous scruple as has been exhibited
hv the hog raisers who have attempt
ed 10 offer cholera infected hogs for
sale on the Durham market is sur
prising. The only explanation is that
the offenders we're ignorant of the
evil consequences Of their act. They
no doubt proceeded on the theory
that so long as the consumer was
ignorant of the infection 1t made no
difference anyway.
II all serves to bring home the
lesson so often taught that the eat
ing OF pork and other heavy meats
is deleterious to health. The pres
ence OF soggy pork and bacon with
strong coffee on the breakfast table,
and too often on the dinner and sup
per tablets the curse of the people
of lie south. In the cold climate OF
the north, where large amount of
body heat must be secured from the
food. there is some excuse for eating
soggy iats. With all of the whole
some, nourishing foods that are avail
able to the people OF the south at a
much cheaper cost. there Is no excuse
for devouring hunks of pork and
other disease laden meats. Pellagra.
typhoid fever and a host Of other
deadly diseases flourish by reason OF
disordered digestions and low physi-
cal vitality brought about by the con-
sumption Of food that many OF the
beasts. guided by their instincts OF
self preservation. refuse to eat.
