OCCURRENCES”
THAT ARE
MAKING HISTORY
An important department in The Saturday
Evening Post, a weekly magazine
founded by Benjamin Franklin in 1728/
If will give the story of important current events the world over in a condensed form. It will explain and
interpret; it will throw light on many puzzling questions, on the meaning and relations of events that
come to the general reader. The newspapers do not usually tell the beginnings of national and inter
national troubles —there are usually “missing links” in their story. These lapses the Post will fill out.

The Saturday Evening Post as it is To-day
A good magazine is a good newspaper in a dress suit. It should have all the brightness, interest,
enterprise and variety of the newspaper, with the dignity, refinement and poise of the magazine.
The Saturday Evening Post, the oldest periodical in America, is a high-grade illustrated weekly
magazine, equal in tone and character to the best of the monthlies.

The smallest republic in the world is
that of Gaust, located on the flat top of
a mountain in the Pyrennees. This
miniature republic has existed over two
centuries, having been organized in 1648,
and is recognized by both France and
Spain. The republic is only one mile in
area, and its total population numbers
only 140 souls. A council of twelve
governs the republic, electing their own
president. Crime is rare in the republic
and its people are thrifty and prosperous.

How to Prevent Croup.
We have two children who are subject
to attacks of croup. Whenever an attack
is coming on my wife gives them Cham
berlain’s Cough Remedy and it always
prevents the attack. It is a household
necessity in this county and no matter
what else we run out of, it would not do
to be without Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy. More of it is sold here than of
all other cough medicines combined. —J.

It seems that the people of the North
have a keen appreciation of the ability
of General Joe Wheeler as a commander
of troops. For instance, the Springfield,
Mass., Republican remarks: “No one is
criticizing General Joe Wheeler. He
seems to do everything exactly as it
should be done. The impression of
alertness and mastery of affairs that he
gives to visitors at Montauk Point, to
gether with his fine record in Cuba,
indicates that he would have come out
on top bad the war lasted long enough.
Moreover, he makes red tape yield to
human brotherhood.”
A New York storekeeper the other day
bought a knotty, mangy, half asleep,
tired looking little broncho at the sale ©f
the Rough Riders’ mounts. The price
paid was $7.50. During its first night in
its new stable home the broncho kicked
down a partition which separated it from
the feed bin and ate up $lO worth of
provender, kicked a new S2OO buggy intd
kindling wood, chewed up a set of har
ness, came near crippling a high priced
horse, and was looking for something
else to do when its new owner and the
hired man drove it into a corner with
pitchforks. The broncho is now spend
ing some time in the country.
Men are just like hogs, however dis
tasteful that may sound to hogs, says a
writer in an exchange. When a hog gets
an ear of corn every other hog will trot
along behind him, and squeal and whine
and beg and toady for a bite, but just let
the front hog get caught with his head
fast in a crack and every son of a sow will
jump on him and tear him to pieces; just
so with men. As long as a man is pros
perous and has money he can’t keep
friends off with a baseball bat. The mo
ment he is unfortunate and his wealth is
gone he is not only snubbed by his for
mer friends, but they at once begin to do
him all the harm possible. When a man
starts down grade the world steps aside
and greases the track.
What Scrofula Is.
Scrofula is a disease as old as antiquity.
It has been handed down for genera
tions and is the same to-day as in
early times, it is emphatically a
disease of the blood, and the only
way to cure it is by purifying the
blood. That is just what Hood’s
Sarsaparilla does in every case where it
is given a faithful trial. It eradicates
all impurities from the blood, and
and cures the sores, boils, pimples
and all forms of skin disease due to
scrofula taints in the blood. Hood’s
Sarsaparilla has won the grateful praise
of vast numbers of people by its
grand and complete cures. Don’t
allow scrofula to develop in your
blood. Cure it at once by taking
Hood's Sarsaparilla.
Mr. dußignon is receiving con
gratulations from all quarters for his
eminently successful management of
the state campaign for the Demo
cratic party. And he deserves them
all. He worked hard for a sweeping
victory, and had the satisfaction of
seeing his candidate receive what
may be called a phenomenal majority
considering the difficulty of arousing
the people to take part in a campaign
that was lacking in stirring issues or
incidents. The chairmanship of the
party has heretofore been looked
upon as a stepping stone to desirable
political positions. Probably there
will be no departure from precedents
in this instance.
Secretary Long says the report
that he and the President will rec
ommend the revival of the grade of
vice admiral for Rear Admiral
Dewey is a mistake. They will rec
ommend that he be made a full ad
miral, without any sort of qualifica
tion attached to his title. Then, to
make the line complete, how would
it do to reyive the vice admiral grade
for Schley ? After Dewey he is the
most popular man in the navy, and
is probably one of the ablest.
Mark Twain as a Stump Speaker.
Once in a while Mark has taken a
hand in politics. On one occasion,
being invited to speak in the interest
of his fellow-townsman, General
Joseph Hawley, who was a candidate
for re-election to the United States
Senate, he said, in the course of a
droll address: “General Hawley de
serves your support, although he has
about as much influence in purifying
the Senate as a bunch of flowers
would have in sweetening a glue
factory. But he’s all right; he never
would turn any poor beggar away
from his door empty-handed. Ho
always gives them something—almost
without exception a letter of intro
duction to me, urging me to help
them.”—October Ladies’ Home Jour
nal.

At the approaching election in
Illinois women of legal age may vote
for state superintendent of public in
struction, trustees of the state uni
versity and county superintendent of
schools; nevertheless it is said that
practically nothing has been done by
the women towards qualifying them
selves as electors. Very few of them
have registered, and none seems to
be taking any interest in the matter.
Do the women really not care to vote;
or are they apathetic because they are
not given the ballot in full, just as
the men have it?
When the lowa and the Oregon
reach Manila nearly one-half of the
armored strength of the United
States navy will be concentrated at
that point. All of which, being
interpreted, means “hands off” to
European nations with an itch for
meddling in Philippine affairs.
The inspector of the provincial in
sane asylum of Ontario, Canada, is
in danger of spoiling, or rather of
running counter to, a famous old
temperance argument. He declares
that the percentage of persons who
become insane from use of whisky is
very small. In 5,000 patients under
his supervision he finds that only
thirty-five lost their minds from use
of alcoholic beverages.
The American commissioners have
returned from Hawaii bringing with
them a draft of a bill to be introduced
at the next session of congress, pro
viding for the government of the
territory of Hawaii. The islands are
already in the position of an embryo
state, and will be cordially welcomed
by their many sisters.
Ex-Secretary of Agriculture Mor
ton of Mr. Cleveland’s cabinet has
been invited by the government of
Argentine Republic to spend next
year in that country as the adviser of
the government in agricultural mat
ters and to organize a national de
partment of agriculture. The far
mers of Argentina, like the cotton
planters of this country, have here
tofore placed all of their eggs in one
basket. They raise wheat, cattle
and sheep exclusively. The govern
ment wishes Mr. Morton to tell them
what else they can raise profitably,
and show them how to do it.
A SHRINKAGE OF HONESTY.
The state tax ratio in Georgia in
1897 was $2.60 on a thousand, but
for 1898 it is $5.21 per thousand.
Something should be done to cut
this rate.—Darien Gazette.
This “Something” should be a law
passed by the legislature, which will
catch the tax dodger and force him
to bear his proportion of the burden
of taxation, says the Columbus
Enquirer-Sun.
All of which is the gospel truth.
—Dalton Argus.
THR NICARAGUA CANAL.
In the matter of the probable cost
of the building of the Nicarague
canal the authorites differ very wide
ly. When the canal company asked
the government to guarantee its
bonds it estimated that the work
would cost $70,000,000. Engineer
Menocal calculated that the cost
would be about $65,000,000. Presi
dent Cleveland’s Ludlow commission
placed the cost at $133,000,000.
Admiral Walker estimated that the
cost would be $125,000,000. The
Wheeler commission, which has just
made an investigation, places its fig
ures at less than $100,000,000.
A oable dispatch reports that Spain
has found a soft berth for Admiral
Cervera. He is to become a senator
and hold the position for life. Amer
icans would rather like it if the old
gentleman were sent to Washington
as minister, after the restoration of
peace.
Atlanta seems to be very well
pleased with the Australian ballot
system, which was tried there for the
first time in the mayoralty primary
the other day. Both daily papers
say the system worked well, and that
the election was as fair as any ever
held in the city. The Journal, how
ever, gives warning that the system
is capable of almost unlimited abuse
in the bands of partisan and un
scrupulous managers.
It is announced that a British
syndicate has paid $8,000,000 for
half a dozen big Havana cigar
factories. Would the investment
have been made if Cuba had remained
under Spanish rule ?
The coflin trust is capitalized at
$20,000,000, and its shares are to be
listed on the exchanges. The
speculators, therefore, are to have a
whack at the necessaries of death as
well as those of life.
The wheat crop of Russia, not
only in the northern provinces as
before reported, but in the southern
provinces as well, is said to be almost
a complete failure. In the south
there will be a partial harvest, but
the grain is said to be sparse, small
sized and light. Prices, therefore,
will be high. Russia’s shortage will
have to be made up from the United
States and Argentina.
A Mississippi editor who is doing
garrison duty at Santiago writes bis
paper: “The Almighty, when he
made Cuba, did a pretty good job,
but be turned it oyer to a class of
people that would cause hell itself to
deteriorate.” The Mississippi style
may not be ornate, but it is forceful.
The Democrats of New York have
nominated Judge Augustus Van
Wyck for Governor.
The convention completely ignored
the Chicago platform. The free
silver crowd bolted and nominated

A Prominent Lady of the Capital
City Tells Her Story.
Mrs. C. C. Filler, of 135 1-2 South
Fourth street, Columbus, Ohio,
writes to Dr. Hartman : “I suffered
from nervous prostration and nervous
debility for years. I tried the best
physicians and
many medi
cines, but all
failed. Pe
ru-na cured me
perfectly.” If
all the sick
mothers, inva
lid daughters
J £
Arfe
and diseased sisters in the land would
take the above lady’s simple and di
rect testimony to heart, and do as
she has done, no one could describe
the benefit that would follow. There
are so many women, especially mar
ried women, who drag themselves
around from year to year without
any particular disease, and yet
miserable beyond all description.
They ache and tremble and throb,
growing more nervous, tired and
debilitated every day. • For this class
of sufferers Pe-ru-na is the most
perfect remedy in existence. It re
lieves, it quiets, it soothes, it
strengthens, and no tired, over
worked woman in the land should be
without Pe-ru-na in the house a
single day.
Dr. Hartman has written a book
especially for women, which will be
sent free to any address. Address
Dr. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio.

Great Men’s Mothers.
“It is an interesting historical fact
that nearly every man of great deeds
who also possessed a great character
had a mother of a strong, fine nature,
with whom in boyhood and early
manhood he dwelt in close sympathy
even when at a distance from her,”
writes Frances B. Evans, in the Oc
tober Ladies’ Home Journal. “Prob
ably the most disagreeable man so
cially of all celebrated men was poor
Thomas Carlyle, whose disposition
was nervous, melancholy and grumpy,
but in the midst of his laborious life
and severe mental industry he could
always find time to write affectionate
letters to his mother, Lull of the re
spect, tenderness and consideration
he never seemed to feel for much
greater personages.”

Language of Esquimaux.
The Esquimaux language, which
is spoken at the extreme north of
this hemisphere, is also found in the
north of Asia.
The people have been called orari
ans—that is, “dwellers on the shore.”
They inhabit a narrow strip of coun
try around the margin of Greenland
and to the west of Baffin’s bay,
around all the great islands and
down the coast shore of Hudson bay
and about the bays and straits to the
north; then to the west around
Alaska, and still further along the
arctic shores of the eastern continent.
They thus extend along the winding
island and mainland coast for more
than 10,000 miles, inhabiting a nar
row fringe of country by the sea and
obtaining their livelihood therefrom.
More than 10,000 miles of coastland
are occupied by a people who speak
one language.
But in Newfoundland there are
tribes which speak another tongue
mixed with the Esquimau, while on
the southwest coast there are other
tribes speaking mixed tongues ; and
the same is true of-tribes inhabiting
the northern coast of Asia. If we
call ail these tongues Esquimau, then
the principal tongue is still homoge
neous and a common medium for the
communication of tribes occupying,
as I have said, more than 10,000
miles of the most difficult coast known
to mankind. While there is inter
communication, it is infrequent be
cause of the difficulties and perils of
arctic navigation. Thus, in all that
stretch of country there is but one
language.

Montreal, expecting to make a big
haul. He got only a few cents in
cash and was so enraged that he bit
a piece out of every pie in the shop,

Mrs. Richard King, of Texas, is
probably the richest woman in the
United States, not excepting Mrs.
Hetty Green. Her wealth is partly
inherited from her father, a pioneer
Presbyterian clergyman, the first
who ever went staff and Bible in
hand to preach the gospel to the In
dians and mixed races that peopled
the vast domain over which his own
little daughter was destined to hold
sway as a landed proprietor. Mrs.
King is a widow, and her landed
estates in southern Texas amount to
1,250,009 acres, or about 2,000 square
miles.
The
Cruel Knife!
It is absolutely useless to expect :
Surgical operation to cure cancer, 01
any other blood disease. The orueltj
of such treatment is illustrated in the
alarming number of deaths which re
sult from it. The disease is in the
blood, and hence can not be cut out.
Nine times out of ten the surgeon’s

Which the doctors said an operatian was th<
only hone. The oper
ation was a severe
one, as it was neoes
jary to cut down to
the jawbone and Jy
•crape it. Before a B
great while the Can- Hfe- 4BK
ser returned, and be- BN
stan to grow rapidly.
We gave him many FW*' aj/
remedies without ne
lief, and finally, X/
upon the advice of a >|A\i
began to Improve. After twenty bottles hat
been taken, the Cancer disappeared entirely
gnd he wag gured. The cure wga a permanen:
one, for he is now afVfenteen years old, and has
never had a sign of the dreadful dise6.se to fe
turn. J. N. Mubdooh,
