American Com in India.
A cargo of com . sent by “The
Chrsistain Herald” to the starving
people of India several months
ago on the steamer “Quito” has
been distributed among those who
most needed it. This gift was a
great benefaction. A venerable
Hindoo, watching the issue of the
corn, asked weather it was out of
pure charity; and when told that
it was, replied that he was an old
man but had never seen anything
like it before. The fact is, the
sending of this com from Amer
ica has more or less affected the
whole Hmdoo community. As
the people have carried it on their
heads all over the stricken district
it has attracted the attention and
touched the. hearts of the remot
est villagers. The fact that it was
sent out of pure philanthropy by
people living thousands of miles
away, across three seas, has moved
the hearts of the people as a thou
sand sermons would not have done.

One hundred thousand dollars
is the prize which Dr. Angler Bel-
linzaghi, a young Italian special
ist, may win as the discoverer of
a serum which cures yellow fever
of the worst form. Several years
ago the Mexican government-
agreed to give this amount to the
discoverer of the remedy for yel
low fever, which every year is epi
demic in the lower gulf ports.
Sermons Without Text.
Some Paisley weavers were
speaking about their ministers.
One said that it was wonderful
how much his minister could bring
out of Scripture. He had known
him to preach several sermons
from one text. Another said his
minister surpassed that, for he
had preached six sermons from
the shortest text in the whole Bi
ble.
“But that’s neathin’ to my
wife,” said the third. “She’s
been preachin’ to me for sixteen
years frae nae text at a’.”—Chi
cago Chronicle.
With extraordinary candor, one
of the big trusts of the country
has recently given an official en
dorsement and proof of the fact
that it, like its congenors, is the
offspring of the tariff and depends
upon its toother for continued life.
The fact that this testimony was
involuntary makes it all the more
convincing. It has long been
known that hnndreds of articles
produced in this country under
tariff protection are regularly
shipped abroad and sold there for
less prices than are demanded at
home.

According to the headlines of
various papers, Gov. Roosevelt is
playing very much of a losing
game. He has lost his voice on
several occasions, and the other
day at Louisville, Ky., he is said
to have lost his head. The next
thing we know the Governor will
be losing his grip, if he has not
already lost it.—Savannah News.

A Fiendish Attach. -
An attack was lately made on
C. F. Collier of Cherokee, Iowa,
that nearly proved fatal. It came
through his kidneys. His hack
got so lame he could not stoop
without great pain, nor sit in a
chair except propped by cushions.
No remedy helped him until he
tried Electric Bitters which effect
ed such a wonderful change that
he writes he feels like a new man.
This marvelous medicine .cures
backache and kidney trouble, pu
rifies the blood and builds up your
health. Only 50/ at Holtzclaw’s

In a speech in Maryland, Mr. J.
H. Ralston thus epitomizes our
trade with the Philippines under
the McKipley management: “Our
exports to the Philippine Islands
have been 85,000 men at a cost of
$120,000,000. Our imports from
the Philippine islands have -been
25,000 maimed, diseased and crip
pled American citizens.”

The Invention Of Bread.
The discovery in Egypt, says
the “Bakers’ Journal” of a loaf
of bread #,000 years old or older,
a part of which was well enough
preserved to make it possible to
identify barely as the grain of
which it was made, recalls the
fact that one of the most remark
able of all inventions is so old that
we have not only no account of it,
but nothing pointing to it, and so
common today that we rarely
think of it as an invention or a
1 wonder—it is bread.
■ There have been found in Egypt
pictures and inscriptions that car-
!ry the history of bread-making
very far back, and show us some
of the early processes. Yet what
they show us is unmistakbly bread,
and the invention of the prooess
lies far hack of that.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one .way to
cure deafness, and that is by con
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which
is nothing but an inflamed condi
tion of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for*any case of Deafness
(caused by catarrh) that cannot
be.cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure.
