Kanraaoaa 0otlr iarr VoB(laitlan of HoetllKlaa la Soalk Afrlea aaS No Wm la Slabt. In the speech of Hlr Mlrhoel Hicks Ili'ueh, chancellor of the exchequer, In tha house of coirmona on the occasion of the introduction of the new budget thivre was not very much that bore dlreetly on tbe cost of the war In Mouth Africa. The tale was told, how ever, iu one clause of one sentence. The expenditures for the year, b sulci hail beau 1 1B3,SOO,000 "of which Itlft.OOO.noo was or account of the war iu Kmith Africa." At the siiiijk lime he propnsril a loan of AI CO.000,000, made necessary by the war. This louu, which la now brine; sub scribed, is in addition to the war loan of 311,000,000 Uniii-d In 1U00. That loan re pre si-n ted less than half of the Increase of the llrltlsh pulillc debt last your due to the conquest of the Itoer republics. Its total was very near the 117-1,000,000 mark, auys the New VrrK Sun. Klnce the latter part of :'.:( sevt-u-U-enth ccirtury (ireut Ilrltaln has never been out of debt. The debt began with a trifling 13.000,000, the result of the revolution which brought the Dutch King William to the English throne. Krom that time It grew and nenrly-al-ways on account of war. At the accession of (Jueen Anne in 1702 the debt was 1:10,400,000, and when the first (leorge became king 12 years later the debt ir.nd been nearly quadrupled. He paid off a paltry cou ple of millions, hut George II. saw it grow to nearly 140,000.000. Ily the beginning of the American war It had been reduced some 10,000, 000, but that war aent It climbing to what at that time waa the terrifying figure of 240.000,000. Korafew yeure there were aucceasful efforts at re duction, and a total decrease of anoth er 10,000,000 was recorded for th decade. Then began the disastrously expen sive French war. which with a slight intermlasion called pence continued until the downfall of Napoleon In IBIS. During thoae 83 years the debt grew tremendously, the loans averaging about 30.000.000 a year. In 1818 the llrltlsh debt had climbed lo the colos sal figure of 00,43,0OO. The debt of no other country, except Krance, bus reached such proportions. After the peace of Paris the British debt took a new course und began to decrease. This course was followed steadily with but two slight interrup tions until the outbrenk of the wnr with the liners. In 1M3 the abolition of slavery caused n slicht increase, and the Crimean war nibled about no.ooo.ooo, so Hint in 1k:,7 the debt stun (I ut about K.'t'J.OOO.oeo. In the 43 vears that followed, up to. the out- breuk of the present war. the debt wns reduced on the nversce CS.000.000 year. In is'.m, when the war began, it had decreased to 035.000,000. The war exeties had taken it'bnck well over 700,000.000, or more than three times the net debt of the t'nited States, and there Is as yet no sign that the war expenses are about to cense or even to show any mAterial diminution. (rent Hrlliiin is now spending approx Imately n million dollars a day on the war with an army In the field of only 250.000 men. In the civil wnr, when the federal armies numbered nearly a million, the expense was only approximately don tile what (Ireat Ilrltaln is now spend lng for one-fourth of that strength. Another Viking ship, or rather boat, has been unearthed near Kiel, but this new discovery cannot compare in di mensions with the finest specimen of its kind, which may be seen by tour ists at tho museum in Christiania. In fact, this clinker built Viking vessel which is about the size of one ofatiur modern fishing boats, is perhaps the most Interesting thing to be seen in all Norway. Those who see it will realize for the first time why "star board," or "steer-board," is applied to the right side of a vessel, as the helm protruded from this side, and not from the stern, which is practically the same as the bow. There is a popular Im pression that "Viking" is etymologic ally synonymous with "beu-King but this is erroneous. The word is not "Vi-klng," but "Vik-ing," or "bay man" "Vik" meaning "sea inlet," oi "liny." Its counterpart is found in such Kngllsh place names as Warwick Wick in the Orkneys, und elsewhere.

He ul been captain of his foot ball eleven and a crack all-around athlete. He was the picture of manly health and vigor, envied by men and admired try women. One day he was taking a practise spin on the river when a drenching storm came up. When he returned to the boat bouse he sat around In his wet flannels without a thought of danger. What oould hurt him? He was "as hard as Bails." After a while he developes a little hacking cough which somehow won't b throws of. In time ha finds he hasn't tbe ambition he formerly had. gxereiar. wearies him. Ha is toeing weight. It ia not very long before he finds himself weak and emaciated, itletched out in a chair knowing that he is wasting away day by day andboor by Hour. It seem a a long way mm was chair to the gridiron and the diamond, a trrest change from that dripping athlete US UC DOBl UUUC W uus mu wasted invalid. But the way is indeed rery short. It is a way which thousands tread every Tear and the beginning of the way which leads to such a sad ending is A TROUBLESOME COUCH.

There is a cure for coughs how ever stubborn, and that cure is Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. "I am feeling quite well," writes Miss Dorcas A. Lewis, of No. 1129 34tu at., Washington, D.

The claims ' mads) for " Golden Medical Discov ery" are not imaginative! 0 r . theoretical. Every claim of cure is founders on a solid fact, a written record, of the cure of deep seated coughs, weak lungs, hemorrhages, - emaciation and other forms of diseaaa which if neglected or nav skilfully treated find fatal termination in coo sumption.

Now I have none of the old symptoms. I am, so far, as well as ever before. I shall recommend Dr. Pierce'a medicine to my friends." Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is confidently recommended for pulmon ary diseases and diseases of the organ of respiration generally. It always helps. It almost always cures. It is not a tonic merely, but a flesh-forming, body building medicine, containing no alcohol, and being absolutely free from opitua, cocaine and all other narcotics. FREE TO THE SICK.
