the rilue of obtaining the liquid luxa

taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
tooercome habitual constipation per
manently. Its perfect freedom from
eery objectionable quality and sub
stance, and ita acting on the kidnevs.
lier and bowela, without weakening

laxative.

for the manufacture of a large supply

According to u description that appears
In the Chinese papeis this terrible

hovel. At one end of a pole there Is
a large sharp pike, such as knights o'
medieval times used to carry. At the
other end there Is a shovel, or spade,
with a blade about eight Inches wide,
which can be used both as an In
trenching tool aud as a weapon. It Is
especially handy lu beheading prison

do la to stick the pike at one end of his
pole through the body of his enemy,
and then turn around aud cut off the

CoaOjr Admiration.

years ago.
At Letnarque's funeral the crowd
took out Oen. lAfayelte's horses, as
the famous soldier was returning home
from the service, and drew his carriage
to his hotel with many evidences of en
thusiastic love nnd admiration. The
scene was a stirring one, aud a friend,
In referring to It some weeks after
ward, said, "You must have been very
much pleased."
Lafayette looked at him for a mo
ment lu slleure, and then said, with a
WhlmilOtil smile: 'Yea, I was very
much pleased, very much pleased In
deed. But I never saw anything more

Manila's Hlrrets.
The streets of .Manila are so modern
as to be quite out of keeping with the
general apiMrunce of the town. The
are perfectly straight, macadamized
and provldftd with ample granite walk.
Of these the Earolta and the Itoaarlo
are the best. In both there are excel
lent shops, kept principally by Chinese
merchants, most of whom come from
Amoy. Tin-roofed houses line each
tide of both thoroughfares.
A Strange Caelum.
The Buyanzl, who live along the Up

which makes life a bunlen to the mar

Into great rings round the neeki of the

the women whose husbands are well to
do weigh as much as thirty pounds, and
this burden must bt carr ed by the
wretched creatures as long aa they lire.
