The readers Of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally and
acts thru the Blood on the Mucous Sur
faces Of the System thereby destroying
the foundation OF the disease, giving the
patient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so much
faith in the curative power OF Halls
Catarrh Medicine that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that II fails

OLD SEA CAPTAINS DUBIOUS
But Await the Experiment With An.

Presented by England.

st. Johns, N. F.-Captains of the
Newfoundland sealing feet look for

herds this season under the arrange
ment by which the feet will be guided
by two airships. whose duty It will
be to net as scouts. search for the
herds of young seals and send word

Some Of the old captains profess to
be trifle dubious Of this new-fangled
method of hunting the seals, but they
are all awaiting the experiment with
anticipation and hope of greater prof

"Blimps" to Be Used.
The two nonrigid airships, popular
ly known as "blimps," which are to
be used In this work have arrived
here and are being assembled to make
this first attempt to hunt seals from
the air and by use of the wireless.

Emerson and the East.

II Is interesting to find that the
one art Of which Emerson did have
direct understanding. the art Of
poetry, gave him some insight into
the relation Of the artist to his vehi-
Gle. In his essay on Shakespeare there
Is full recognition Of the debt Of
Shakespeare to his times. This essay
is filled with the historic sense. We
ought not to accuse Emerson because
he lacked appreciation Of the fine arts,
but rather admire the truly Goethean
spirit In which he insisted upon the
reality Of arts OF which he had no I'M
Outstanding. This Is the same spirit
which led him to insist on the value
of the Eastern poets. Perhaps there
exist a few scholars who can tell us
how far Emerson understood or mis-
understood Saadi and Flrdusi and
the Koran. But we need not be dis
turbcd for his learning. It Is enough
that he makes us recognize that these
men were men, too. and that their
writings mean something not unknOw-
able to us. The East added nothing
to Emerson. but gave him few trap

TO HUNT SEALS
'~ WITH AIRSHIPS

are Of the sea-scouting type. driven
by n single engine. the kind which
did valuable reconnaissance work over
the North and Irish seas during the
war. The fourth Is larger and driven
by two motors.
Presented by England.
All these have been presented to
the Newfoundland government by the
British air ministry as the nucleus Of
n regular government air patrol serv-
Ice In Newfoundland. After the ex.
pertinent In seal hunting they will be
used as matter Of routine In the
forest patrol and survey work.
The party includes two airship pi-
lots. Of whom the chief Is Capt. VIII
lIams, who distinguished himself in
the war as pilot In airships over
the Irish sea. The aIrship station In
Newfoundland will be established at
BotwoOd on the Exploits river, where
the wireless station will be built to
keep In touch with the airships.
VIII Locate Seals.
When the vast herds Of young seals
come drifting down from the north on
the Ice early in the spring, the
"blimps" will fly out over the North
Atlantic, will hunt them out and send
word Of their location to the sealing
fleet waiting to XIII them for their OIL
bearing fat and skins.
Heretofore big kill" has been
the matter Of luck as well MS of good
Judgment. The sealing fleet has re-
lied mainly on the knowledge and skill
OF certain shippers who study charts
and currents and estimate where the
herd may be found, but sometimes
they have missed their object. Next
spring, however, II is hoped here that
the airship patrol, preceding the fleet
and scouting over the immense area
of water, will convert what has hIth.
erto been a gamble into almost a Ger.
tainty.

DUSK BRINGS JOY
Life in Cairo Really Begins in the
Evening.
Summer Days Too Hot for Any exer
ton, but With the Fall Of Night
the City Awakes.

The city Of Cairo Is really pleasant
In summer, at least In the evening,
writes q correspondent Of the London
Daily Express. English people living
in Egypt had chance 10 find this out
when the high cost Of travel prevented
their usual summer trip to England.
1t is for the evenings that Cairo

air Is heavy with moisture and II Is
this that makes the heat so hard to
bear.
At last the setting sun floods the
desert and the Mokattam hills with q
tangerine glow that changes swiftly
into q soft, opalescent green light.
Dusk falls swiftly. and a little breeze
shivers through the treetops.
The streets that but short while

as a Paris boulevard. The pavement
tables outside the cafes are thronged.
Picturesque sellers Of water and sher-
bet. clashing two large bowls together
to attract attention, ply their trade;
others sell little nosegays Of strongly
scented jasmine; and the evening pa
pers are bought eagerly by the awak-
ening population, while birds twitter
their evening hymn.
II Is on the pavement that the true
Cairene prefers to dine. There is ono
street In particular filed with nothing
but cafes, and their tables stretch half
way across the road.
At some one may order q meal la
carte from the restaurant; at others
one orders glass Of beer and picks
up courses haphazard from half
dozen different vendors; strange mix

another. slices Of spiced sausage the

to catch every little breeze that blows.
