J. A. EBERLE,

Merchant Tailor,
Second Street, opposite Mays & Crowe,
We have an excellent line of Spring
Suitings, Pantings, etc., which we are
prepared to make up in the latest styles,
and guarantee a perfect fit.
THE COST OF THE BOER WAR.
The loan of $300,000,000, which
Sir Michnel Hicks-Beacb is negoti
ating is one index of the cost of the
Boer war, says the New York Tri
bune. John Bull will pay the bill.
Great as is the amount required,
more than five times as much has
been promptly offered.' There can
be no question of the ability of the
British nation to meet the financial
cost of the war. And after paying
the bills, by increasing the funded
debt, John Bull will resume the
process of paying off the debt at a
rapid rate, as he was doing before
this war.
There is another cosi, however,
than that which appears in the
Budget, and one for which the nation
can never be recouped. A recent
return of the war office reports the
cost of the war in human flesh and
blood down to a month ago. From
this it appears that the number of
deaths has been 14,728. Of these,
3,930 were killed in battle, 1,301
died of wounds soon after battle, DC
died in Boer prisons, 304 died after
having been sent home as invalids,
298 were killed by accident, and the
appalling number of 8,793 died of
disease. No fewer than 775 are still
missing or in captivity among the
Boers. And 2,189, having been
sent home as invalids, have so far
failed to recover their health as to
remain permanently unfit for duty, if
not quite disabled. If we reckon
that most of the "missing and prison
ers" will eventually be reported safe
end sound, we have a total of 17,
000 men forever lost to the working
force of the British Empire.
That is a loss of the heaviest kind,
and one for which there can never
be compensation. The gold mines
of the Rand may be, and probably
will be, made to repay the millions
of money spent to redeem them from i
Root misrule. But never from mine
or veldt can arise the thousands of
strong young lives that have been
spent in the same cause. Of a truth.
it may be asked :
Thou whose wounds nre never healed,
Whose race is never won,
O Cromwell's Kngland ! must thou yield
For every Inch of ground u mm 7
Seventeen thousand lives, of her
best picked men! And it was to
have boon merely a "military prom
enade" to Pretoria! It is an ap
palling proof of the illimitable un
certainties into which a nation
plunges blindly aud headlong when
ever it goes to war.
Ex-Senator Pettigrew, the moat
pestiferous demagogue on the Amer
ican continent, is said to have
recently cleared up a round million
in gambling in stocks. Pettigrew
will now try to buy libs way back
into the United States senate, where
he would be more of a demagogue
nd more pestiferous than ever.

Yes, August Flowerstill has the largest
sale of any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers and grandmothers
never thought of using anything else for
indigestion and biliousness. Doctors
were scarce and they seldom heard of
appendicitis, nervous prostration or
heart failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean out the system and stop
! fermentation of undigested food, regn
' late the action of the liver, stimulate the
I nervous and orgauic action of the sys
' tern, and that is all they took when fuel
1 iug dull and bad with headachas and
i other aches. You only need a few doees
' of Green's August Flower, in liquid
' form, to make you satisfied there is
! nothing serious the matter with you.
