Oakey's Long Shot.

That famous and eloquent bald-head- ed orator, P. Davis Oakley, of Hartford, just elected congressman, who was obliged to miss, for the first time, the annual banquet of the B. H. O. of A., last week, had the spirit of prophecy on him when he wrote his letter of regret, which Secretary Chapman read at the feast, and from which we quote the following:
 "1 am going to make a suggestion to you and my brothers inWinsted tonight, and that is, that you hold the next meeting of the Bald. Head Club of America in Washington, and have as toastmaster and interlocutor John Rodemeyer, with Jim Glynn at one end of the table and your humble ser want at the other

Bore Chief Burden.

London. Aug. 26.-The Times cor
respondent at Paris says that the Brit
ish troops faced upon Mons have
borne much of the burden OF the past
three days. Upon their positions the
Germans delivered a vigorous attack,
which was resisted by the logged OBJ
stinacy displayed by the British
squares in Waterloo, and in this, it's
first engagement, the British expedi-
t!onary force has justified the hopes
and confidence placed in it. An eye
witness of the opening stages of the
German attack on Mons relates that
the British artillery seemed to be
much better than that of the enemy,
and that their batteries, posted in
wooded hills to the south of the town,
inflicted heavy losses on the Germans.
The British were apparently doing
more than upholding their own. The
result of the battle along the whole
line, however, was a check for the
allies.

on Charleroi, as the engagements Of
Saturday and Sunday are being called
from the fact that the mining town
appears to have been the centre of

chances OF the war being brought to
q speedy conclusions are considerab-
ly reduced. The Germans failure at

hoped, foundered beyond her power
to check the slow but overwhelming
advance Of the Russian army. Two
or even three years OF war are dis
cussed as the probable prospect be-
fore the world. High authorities are
cited De supporting this view. Lord

HOMEOPATHY

Gold Is one Of the most ductile Of
the metals. One grain Of gold can be
drawn into a wire 500 #. long. 1t is
very malleable: II grain can be beat
en- out until it covers an area of Sc
SO. in.
Centuries ago it was known that
gold was Of value in the treatment Of
disease. but because of the .%crudeness
of its preparations was little used UNI
til it was prepared as a remedy ac-
icording to the scientific methods pc
'culiar to homeopathy. Since that time
its action has been thoroughly tested
and 1t has proven q wonderful cura-
that would be incurable without it.
No drug cures more cases Of mental
depression than gold when it's use is
indicated by the entire state of the
sick individual. When gold is needed
the mind is usually affected with
hopelessness, melancholy, longing for
death and q tendency to suicide. With
this mental state there Is likely to be

from rheumatic affections. The indi-
vidual requiring gold as a remedy
feels better in cold. damp weather.
which is characteristic Of the individ-
ual as it is unusual for a rheumatic
patient to feel better under such cir
cumstances. The eyes, liver, bones
and nervous system may also be at
