haired Indian who is the 0.-acle of u sm;...

language is unlil.e that of any of the
neighJ»orliig towns.
This little tribe Las. never been con
quered either by the Spaniards or by the
church, or by the menk-rn gevc.rumerit of
; the r. public. The Indians hn\>‘ preserved
all their eld customs ati.t traditions until

In that cave *ve preserved rare gems of

GeuerMl Kltcliruvr'p Peerage.
In the official announeement concerning
the. sirdar's peerage it is explained that the
queen's wishes would have been notified
at an earlier date but for the temporary
breakdown of 'telegraphic <‘Qinmunicatiou.
i It is usual of .course for die recipient of
such a dignity to be made acquainted with
his good fortune before any official com
luunicarivo is made to rhe press, and
i therefore tiheexplanation alluded to would
; bt in itself ma only plausible, but. convinc-
Uifi.
There is .a rumor, however, that the
breakdown ad'the telegraph wires does not
furnish the whole explanation of the inci
dent, and tlu»t the question of conferring
a peerage upum Sir Herbert Kitchener be
came a matter of serious debate between
j Lord Salisbury and the war office. Prob
ably with accuisaey the sirdar is describ
ed as the “most popular man in the em
pire.” but it ia nevertheless well known
in military circles that his rapid advance
; in the army has caused serious heartburn
ing, ami it is fear-ed that his elevation to
tile peerage, by which ho would practical
ly attain the statu*’ enjoyed by the com
mander in chief and l.ord Roberts, would
intensify tho feeling.
But the press and the public have had
their way, and incidentally, too, rhe honor
conferred upon the sirdar has advertised
! to the world the importance which the
British government attaciier. in his work
and ir» results.—London Cur. Leede Mer

Queer Story of Two I.akei,
The Wetternsee in Sweden, like so many
other lakes, has lung enjoyed the local
reputation of being a bottomless pit. The
Swedish scientists have now destroyed the
venerable legend, fur in the measurements
taken a few' days ago they have success
fully demonstrated that the greatest depth i
of the lake is only 119 meters. There still
remains, however, a series of mysteries i
which science must be content to leave
unsolved—at least for a time. It is not
only a legendary belief, but there is a
quasi scientific ground for the queer sup- ■
position, that living creatures, animal and
vegetal be, can and do make journeys to |
and fro between the high northern lake of
Wettern and the south German lake of j
Constance.
This bold conclusion has been partly jus- I
tided by the appearance of exactly the |
same fauna, and even of the same animal
life, in the Swedish and the Swabian in
land seas. It is even asserted that when
ever there is a storm on the lake of Con
stance the lake of Wettern begins sympa
thetically to roll and swell, and that the
southern lake is similarly moved by any
agitation in the distant northern lake.
The Kleine Zcitung soberly declares this
sympathetic phenomenon to be a known
fact, but considerately adds that we will
have to wait some lime for the rational
explanation of it.—London News.

Cold Weather
Brings Catarrh.
The Severity of this Dis=
ease Increases Each
Winter.
i Though the disagreeable effect? of Ca
tarrh are felt all the year round, cold i
, ’ aigl unpleasant weather aggravates
the disease and it is during the winter
i fioaaon that its severest f<>nn is felt, i
Each succeeding year ‘ems to in-1
tewdfy the disease, so that it grauually
fastens its hold upon the sufferer with
i a grasp that becomes firmer each sea
son.
Catarrh often appears as only a cold
at first, and is hardly noticed. But
! gradually the cold returns, and it is
more difficult to cure, and stays longer
than formerly. These symptoms can
; not be mistaken; they mark the first
appearance of a disease that will de
velop in severity and stubbornness,and
which it is impossible to cure with the
1 1 local treatment of sprays, washes, and
1 i similar applications. Being a disease!
1 of the blood, only a blood remedy can '
have the slightest effect upon it. S.S.S. |
• (Swift’s Specific) is the only cure for 1
' Catarrh, because it is the only blood i
1 ; remedy which goes to the seat of all ob- i
• atinaie cases, and forces out the disease.
, j Mr. T. A. Williams, a leading mer
( ; chantot Spartanburg, S. C., writes:
“For Tour years I had nasal catarrh,
end though The case was a mild one at
first, it was not long until I noticed that
it wws gradually growing worse. Os
