accuracy of our compounding, for every man, woman and

Nothing is nicer and more valuab e than a fine collec

And in nearly every instance such

Tho latter is his trado and ho wonts

With rare exceptions, Indians aro

Thov aro hardly to blamed lor it
either, for tho government has rather
encouraged their Indisposition to any

If tho red men wero compelled to

THE GAME OF WAR.

portion to population as the great
American strike.
Sir Thomas Lipton may have a me
dium idea of navigating a yacht, but
when ho ran up against the automo
bile he doubtless thought he had been
struck by a squall.
It was bad enough when the auto
mobile's were killing off the dudes
and rich people, but now that they
are attacking sultans, they should at
once be "suppressed.

Tho mimic war of the United States
has been retarded by the fine
weather. In real war neither good
:.or bad weather has troubled our
tavy; the only thing that ever wor
ried it was to find the enemy. It was
easy then.
Composite novels have had their
day, good humor on a small scale is
still read, but when one editor says
something funny and another at
tempts to Improve on it, and another,
until it is strung out into half-column
of puns and rehash, It causes tho
reader to feel for his gun.
The greatest evidence of the young
king of Spain's malady is that he re
iuses to marry the girl they picked
out for him. This should not be evi
dence of insanity at all. Tho king
ought to have the right to" marry
whom he pleases, even if she should
be freckle-faced and cross-eyed.
A little straight talk to the sultan
from tho United States Minister had
a good effect That country is be
ginning to deliver up goods and may
continue until Uncle Sam is satisfied.
The first act of the sultan was to de
liver a package of insurance papers
that had been wrongfully seized by
tho authorities of that country.
Sheriff Taylor doQs not take a

tho way either. Ono criminal "looks

An epidemic of hold-ups is on.
Strict vigilance on tho part of officers
and citizens will soon cause tho ap

Tho Herald has.recelved some more
literature from that highly patriotic
organization, tho Indian Rights asso-
ciaton, of Philadelphia.
Of course, people who live in Phila
delphia know all about the manner
in which tho down-trodden Indians
are being treated.
They know that ho is being robbed
in tho most consclousless stylo and
that ho is the incarnation of injured
innocence.
Tho Philadelphia association is par

ecting to the policy of dividing lands
of tho Indians, giving them all they
need for themselves and In turning
over tho balance to white settler:, for
a fair compensation.
We aro not ready to believe,"
says tho society, "that tho American
people will sanction a policy of con
fiscation and injustice toward tho In
dian race.
"Yet there Is need of rousing the
public conscience to tho danger that
threatens."
In spite of tho gloomy view taken
by tho Phllidelphlans, the Herald can
not see that the Indians nro In any
very grave danger of losing their
property without sufficient recom
pense. As a matter of fact, tho majority of
the Indian tribes aro far better off

PROF. TALFOURD SMITH.
Catarrh is inflammation of tho mucous
membrane. It may bo iu tho mucous
mombrano lining tho eyes or tho pelvlo
organs, throat, stomach, llvor, bowels or
kldnoys.
Catarrh is catarrh wherever located.
Peruna cures catarrh wherever located.
Poruna is an internal remedy; not a
local application.
Catarrh is a systemic disease, not a
local disease. If Peruna will euro catarrh
in one place it will euro it in any otlior
place, because Peruna is a systomic rem
edy. It reaches tho disease through tho
circulation in each organ. It eradicates
tho disease by eradicating it from tho
system.
