For sale by O. 0 Krogstad, druggist tme h im r mpm'mj India's Starving Millions. The famine area of India islnreerin extent than all New England, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, In diana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin combined ; and the population of this territory is over 60.000,000. The number in extreme destitution is nearly 25,000, 000, of whom 10,000,000 are actually starving at this time. The suffering of the millions in the famine districts is beyond the power of mortal pen to describe terrible in its agony ani sickening in its helplessness. The plains are strewn with countless bones and the rivers are poisoned with decomposing bodies of both cattle and men. One traveler tells of finding no less than twenty skulls in a walk of a few minutes. ' lueni women ' and children sink for the out their lives under the sky that hangs like a molten bowl above them, and out of which the birds drop, lifeless, onto the dry earth that reflects the fierce heat of the sun. ' Where these wretched beings fall they lie, for the fiercest animals have been I . . . . nea with intense Buffering. The fire of the eye lias given place to a dumb prayer, and in many instances they stretch their ragged thin bodies near those of their late enemies and perish with them. The process of starvation is a gradual one, and its pangs are most excruciat ing. In some instances mothers and fathers have eaten their children, and in many cases they have deserted them'. Left alone they roam in the bare plains, gnawing sticks and bits of earth until too weak to walk. Then thev crawl.on until, finally, they stop in their agony and wait for death. There is no form of death that leaves its victim in more fearful shaps than death from starvation. Gradually the flesh dries down until it seems glued to the bones like'a thin covering. The eyes grow glassy and protrude like balls. The stomach, at first sunken, distends as it goes day after day without any susten ance whatever, and the hair and eye brows drop out. As one dwells on the horrors of this famine it is well to bear in mind that this 'is not a plague, but starvation. Money, no matter how liberally nor how wisely . spent, cannot always stop a plague, but bread cau always stop starva tion, and money can always buy bread. There is no lack of food in India. , All authorities agree to this. The lack is of money to buy food. One of the most distressing features of the famine is the condition of the native women. In many of the native states women are going about without one thread of clothing, and the moral ruin of these districts is assured. It is also a terrible fact that etarving girls are every where sought after by designing persons to be used for immoral purposes. The story of this terrible famine can not be pictured in its horrors. The thousands of dead and the moaning, struggling, heaps of dying defy descrip tion ; but the condition of today is but the beginning, for while the rain now falling in the famine district is full of promise for the future, it brings no little immediate distress. The six millions of people at relief campsj unprotected by suitable clothing and shelter, are in a pitiable condition. Those leaving the camps, so as to be back at their fields, return to ruined homes. ' The immense arnout of work that is being done in relief is most effective and praiseworthy, and it is one hopeful evi dence that there yet remain in this sel fish world a few unselfish and devoted souls. In the famine districts there are hun dreds of both American and European missionaries assisted in doinir their " splendid work by thousands of honest natives.
