The election of the Russian duIna and the tenn
porary restoration of Finand's constitution. Yet
restored is hardly the word. for that restricted
cautious and eminently bourgeois constitution OF
1868 was reslIrrected into something democratic
and aterrible-a popular government, based upon
ru adult suffrage and proportional representation
with an elected house, containing at its first as
senblage in April, 1907, 80 social democrats out
OF total of 200. And these were genuine, uncom-
promising Marxist social democrats, the outcome
of a party which was first formed in 1899. Since
then the social democratic representation of Fin
& land has steadily increased at every election.
From the spring Of 1907 to that of 1909 Finland
experienced two crowded years of glorious life"
in which the country simply hummed with internal
progress and political development The old feuds
of Svekoman and Fennoman were taken up with
renewed vigor, although the Swedish speaking
Films were now only one-ninth of the population
and still decreasing.
We all remember how. in May, 1910, 12O mem
bers of the British parliament signed a memorial
to the duma expressing the apprehension with
which they regarded the proposal to deprive Fin
land of her constitutional rights while large
number of German, French, Italian, Belgian and
Dutch deputies formed and addressed similar
memorials. But all this was in vain, and by July,
1910, the bill for the classification of Finland be
came law.

practice The andtdag was still assembled at in

municipal council. A number of official dimissals
took place. Russians given full Finnish
rights in Finland and the usual series of arrests,
imprisonments and exilings followed but until
1912 the Finnish press only internationally
censored However this second series of bad
years. was much harder for the Films than the
period of 18991906.

an unlimited time.
One piece of news only came through in the
early days Of the war, to the effect that the dow
ager empress of Russia had returned from Den
mark by way of Finland and had shown much
courtesy and common sense on her passage 1t
was said that she had caused her personal guard
to be greatly relaxed, that she had talked with

a good impression. But shortly after her return
the Firms were specially and officially warned mot

PAPER FAMINE IN OLD TIMES.

There was paper famine in Europe in the
seventh century. In "A. D. $40 the Saracens con.
ouered Egypt, and at the same time by order OF
omar. their caliph, the renowned library at Alex
ondria. consisting of 100000 volumes, was burned.
rho naDer supply of the then world was derived
e. tho nanyrus bark reed which grew only
in Egypt. Consequently, when the Saracens
coined possession Of the country the paper supply
was cut off This led to the adoption OF curious
ovnedient. The writing used papyrus paper
was erased and the paper which was thus made
available, again brought into use. An Ola auenor
80 suggested that probably owing to this many
alnohle contributions from classic writer's, Taci-
tus Iiyy and others, were lost to the world.

broken into tiny pebbly pieces and eaten with
sugar and lemon any other mixture that they

Japan, however, is to shave it into snowy flakes
and to swallow it with sweetened water into

TATTooING ANCIENT CUSTOM.

The antiquity of tattooing is evidenced by its
almost universal employment among primitive
peoples In New Guinea the young women are
tattooed all over their bodies, their faces being
similarly treated after marriage.
In the Solomon islands girl is not eligible for
marriage unless she has been tattooed. The girls
of Borneo are thus adorned from waist to knees
in most elaborate fashion; likewise their hands,
feet and ankles.
In Burmah, under the last king, every male
was required by royal edict to be tattooed from
waist to knees; and 1t customary for the
girls to have their tongues tattooed with charms
to attract the men.

venezuela commences in September
or October. In most sections of the
country only one crop is raised an

could easily be two. Most of the corn
raised in Venezuela is white. and the
market for this is not so good in the

well be considered as an available

sometimes happens.
The orderly officer was asking for

1t is not matter of record that
Peary took the temperature during his
short stay at the Pole, hence there is
no North pole temperature record that

much above the freezing point, not
withstanding its 24-hour day. for the

You reckless men and women who

For Catarrhal Deafness
and Head Noises

Here in America there is much suf-
fering from catarrh and head noises.
American people would do we'll to con-
slider the method employed by the
English to combat this insidious dis
ease. Everyone knows how damp the
English climate is and how dampness
affects those suffering from catarrh.
In England they treat catarrhal deaf
ness and head noises as a constitu-
tional disease and use an internal
remedy for it that is really very ef-
f1cacious.
Sufferers who could scarcely hear
have had their hearing restored by
this English treatment to such an ex-
tent that the tick Of watch was
plainly audible seven and eight inches
away from either ear.
Therefore, if you know someone
who is troubled with catarrh, catarrh-
al deafness or head noises, cut out
this formula and hand 1t to thom and
you may have been the means Of saw
ing some poor sufferer perhaps from
total deafness. The prescription can
be easily prepared at home for few
cents and is made as follows:
From your druggist obtain l OF. OF
Parmint Double Strshgth). Take
this home, and add to it Il pint Of
hot water and 4 ounces of granulated
sugar; stir until dissolved. Take
tablespoonful four times a day.
Parmint is used in this way not
only to reduce by tonic action the in
flamation in the Eustachian Tubes.
and thus to equaize the air pressure
on the drum, but to correct any ex.
cess of secretions in the middle ear,
and the results it gives are usually
quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in
any form should give this recipe
trial. For sale by rClem Thistle
