Rugakdixg tlie development of our resources, tho chamber of commerce has prepared and will j shortly issue a series of questions addressed to residents in every part of the county, with a request that thev be answered and returned; this with a view to the preparation of a pamphlet setting forth facts as thej' exist, and giving the kind of information that intending im migrants would be most likely to want. Some of these questions are of -the following nature: Inquiring number of acres land taken; not taken; acres open and covered by brush or timber; acres good for loo-fin"-; averaire feet of timber to the acre; price per M logs in the water; piice of stumpage; amount wages to ax men, teamsters, labor ers, foremen; average value oxen; cost of ha' and other feed; aver age price timber land; market . price of wood, per cord. Price per acre of improved land; unimproved; average yield, hay, potatoes, grain, etc.: market value of each product; average wages; nature and character of soil and water; what fruits, vegetables, grains and grasses do best : princi pal market; kind of communica tion; distance; kind of stock; pounds butter, cheese, in 8G, and price; price of beef, veal, mutton, chickens, eggs, etc.; how much feedstock require in winter; how long they hav to be fed. "Have you ever known an' failure of crops or pasturage by reason of drouth in summer or of cold- iu winter? State average time required to clear a farm so as to'make'a comfortable living, and expense per acre." "Js there plenty of good water? How many schoolhouses, churches, whab denomination, how many saw- mills, salmon canneries, cream erics, cheese factories, other man ufactures." rjyWhatis the prevalent political party and religion? General health, prevalent complaints; state general character of the country and any other item of probable interest." The question of Parnell's relig ion has often been discussed, bus never elucidated. Religion enters so acutely into politics tind society over there that :i conspicuous man must declare himself. The com pulsion . which Gladstone invites and Churchill does not repel, P.ir nell has ignored. Ireland is over whelmingly Catholic. Yet she --trusts -ihis man implicitly nut to permit any legislation which will be offensive to her traditions. A great critic describes the religious state of Germany tifter the thirty years' war, as petrified Protestant ism. Parnell is a petrified Protes tant. 'He has never spoken a word which would indicate the presence of a dogma in his conscience. He has never. written a line to disavow the hereditary creed of his family. But he has had to encounter so much. malignant stupidity on the part of recriminating exponents of faiths claiming to be divine that one may credit a story told of him: A lover of Greek lore quoted in his presence one day the ancient cro'pe that Socrates had brought philosoplry down from heaven. Parnell smiled his pale smile and replied; "What a pity he did not take theology up there." Pkobably nineteen-twentieths of tlie happiness you vsill ever have you will get at home. The independence that comes to a man when his work is over, and he feels that he" has' run out of the storm into the quiet harbor of home, where he can rest in peace with his family, is something real. It does not make much difference whether you own yonr house or have one little room in that house, you can make that little room a home to you. You can people it with such moods, you can turn to it with such sweet fancies, that it will be fairly luminous with their presence-and will be to you the very perfection of a home. i"S THEREANY HOPE? ffEW AHD IHF02TANT OPI2TIONS OF PULH.ONARY EXPEET5! Can IHo Universal Consumption bo Snoccsefully Troatod? Dr. Borgeon, a leading Fiench doctor, has a new treatment for con sumption ! He gives an enema of carbonic acid and sulphuretted hydrogen gases, the latter gas carrying the former into every part of the throat and lungs. This treatment, too, is directed at effects the cause remains undis turbed. What this cause is has been stated by perhaps the highest pulmonary authority in the world, i. e., the Bromrjton Hospital for Consump tives, in London, Eng. This malady every 3'ear carries off from one-seVenth to one-fifth of the entire population of England ! Dr. Payne, M. D., M. 11. C. P., Lon don, is authority for this statement. The same or a greater proportion of deaths obtains in America. Dr. Payne also says that one-half the total number of deaths from all other causes have seeds of this disease in the system which only require some irritant to develop ! Dr. Hermann Brehmer, an eminent German authority, says that con sumption is caused by deficient nutri tion of the lungs, by poor blood. These authorities cannot be dis puted. The medical world recognizes them. The uric acid is the irritant in the blood'that causes the develop ment of the seeds which Dr. Brehmer says lie dormant in the blood. Every particle ,of blood which passes through the lunga and heart, also goes through the kidneys, and if they are in the least deranged they cannot rid the blood of its killing poison. The thousand little hair like sewer tubes of the kidneys very easily get blocked up and diseased"; and when they do, they corrupt in stead of purifying the blood. Kidney disease may exist, and yet no pain oc cur in that organ, because it is defi cient in nerves of sensation. Dip your finger in acid every day and it soon festers and is destroyed. Send acid poisoned blood through the lungs every second, and they soon give waj The Brompton Hospital investiga tion showed that 52 per cent, of the victims of consumption weie af flicted with deranged kidneys, which permitted the uric acid poison to re main in the blood and irritate the lungs. This uric acid is alwaj-s fight ing everjT vital organ, and if there be any inherent weakness in the lungs it inevitably causes pneumonia, cough and consumption. The real cause of pulmonary troubles being so authoritatively shown to be faulty even though un suspected action of the kidnes, ex plains why, in order to master the dreaded consumption, one must rid the blood of the uric acid irritant which inflames and burns up the lung substance. For this purpose there is nothing equal to that great specific, "Warner's safe cure. This remedy has now the favor of medical men all over the world purely on its merits. "We have no doubt that if the kidneys arc kept in natural action, consumption and a great many other diseases, caused by uric-acid, will not only bo cured but will bo prevented. When the kidney is healthy, no albumen appears in the water, but albumen is found in the water of more than half of those who die with con sumption ! This, then, is the condition of things that always precedes con cen con sumpteon: First, weakened kidneys ; second, retained uric acid, poisoning the blood ; third, the development of disease in the lungs by the irritant acids passing through them. Then there is a little cough in the morning ; soon thick, yellow matter is spit up, followed by loss of flesh and strength, with dreadful night sweats; and when the patient goes to his school physician for help, he is put on cod liver oil which his stomach, weakened also by uric acid in the blood, cannot digest Because there is no pain present in the kidneys, the patient does not think they are affected, but the kidney acid is doing its work every minute, every hour, day and night, and by-and-by the disease of the lungs has advanced until pus is de veloped, then come hemorrhages, and at last the glassy stare which de notes that the end is near ! A post-mortem examination of such cases shows that the terrible uric acid has completely destroyed the substance of the lung. It is impossible to cure lung disease when the blood is poisoned with uric acid.
