Rheumatism does more than any other dis- lsw.is?ssTUs case to rob life of pleasure and comfort. It is so painful and far-reaching in its effects on the system that those afflicted with it find themselves utterly unable to enjoy bodily comfort or any of the pleasures of life.

THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA. CAm Railroads and Progress. In his testimony before the senate committee on interstate commerce at Washington, on May 4, Prof. Hugo R. Meyer, of Chicago university, an, ex pert on railroad management, made this statement: "Tt lift lrvnk at what Tniffht have happened if we had heeded the protests of the farmers of New York and Ohio and Pennsylvania (in' the seventies when grain from the West began pour ing to the Atlantic seaboard) and acted upon the doctrine which the Interstate Commeace commission has enunciated time and again, that no man may be deprived of the advantages accruing to him by virtue of his geographical posi tion. We could not have 'west of the Mississippi a population of millions of ' people who are prosperous and are great consumers. We never should have seen the years when we built 10,000 and 12,000 miles of railway for there would have been no farmers west of the Mississippi river who could have used the land that would have been opened up by the building of those rail ways. And if we had not seen the years when we could build 10,000 and 12,000 miles of railway in a year, we - should not have today - east of the Mississippi a steel and iron producing center which is at once the marvel and the despair of Europe, because we . could not have built up a steel and iron industry if there had been no mar ket for its product. "We could not have in New Eng land a great boot . and shoe industry; we could not have in New England a great cotton milling industry ; we could - not have spread throughout. New York and Pennsylvania and Ohio manufac turing industries of the most diversified kinds, because those industries would have no market among the farmers west of the Mississippi river. "And while the progress of this country, while the development of the agricultural West of this country, did mean 'the impairment of the agricul tural value east of the Mississippi river that ran up into hundreds of millions of dollars, it meant incidentally the building np of great manufacturing in dustries that added to the value of this - land by thousands of millions of do! lars. And, . gentlemen, those things were not foreseen in the seventies. The statesmen and the publicmen of this country did not see what part the agri cultural development of the West was going to play in the industrial develop' ment of the East. And you may read the decisions of the Interstate Com merce commission from the first to tbe last, and What is one of the greatest . characteristics of those decisions?

It never can see that the destruc tion or impairment of farm values in this place mWns the building up of fa m nM in tnn nlara. atlrt that l that shifting of values is a necessary incident to the industrial and manu facturing development of this country. And if we shall give to the Interstate Commerce commission power to regu-1 late rates, we shall no longer have our rates regulated on the statesmanlike basis on which they have been regu- lated in the past by railway men, who really have been great statesmen, who really have been great builders of em- pires, who have had an imagination that rivals the imagination of the greatest poet and of the greatest in ventor, and who have operated with a courage and daring that rivals the courage and daring of the greatest mil itary general. But we shall have our rates regulated by a body of civil ser- vants, bureaucrats, whose besetting sin the world over is that they never can grasp a situation in a large way and with the grasp of the statesman; that J they never can see the fact that they are confronted with a small evil ; ex-1 cept by the creation of evils and abuses which are infinitely greater than the one that is to be corrected.

Cathol Standard and Times. A lady entered a railway station not a hundred miles rrom JMinDurgn tne other day, and said she wanted a ticket for London. The pale-looking clerk asked: "Single?"

An Exciting; Early Morning- Adventure in a Somaliland Jungle. . When In Somaliland, Africa, I had an exciting adventure with a black maned lion," writes a correspondent in the London Chronicle.- "I had in tended to reach a village one night, but it was getting dark and we were couple of hours' march, off; so, find ing an old zareba or thorn inclosure, we went Into It This zareba covered half an acre. It was only about four feet high and four feet thick, the thorny branches composing it having sunk down and fallen apart "We repaired about 100 yards of it pitched our tent and the cook got his fire lighted, gave me some dinner and turned In. Our nineteen camels all squatted In a circle to the right of the tent our horses were tethered near to them and our twenty-one men lighted three or four fires, cooked their food and lay down to Sleep around tbe camels. We also had five donkeys tethered to two or three saplings; which were growing about two paces in front of the tent and, therefore, to ward the center of the zareba. About 2 o'clock in the morning was awakened by two feeble brays, followed by a third. Lighting a candle. tumbled out in my pajamas and got hold of my rifle and a couple of car tridges, to. meet the Somali hunters shoving their woolly.; heads through the tent door, saying . 'Waraba!' (hyena). Deep growls were going on and I at once felt sure that It was no hyena, but a Hon In the zareba. Fortu nately, the camels did not stampede, It was pitch dark, but I saw that one of the five donkeys tethered in front of the tent was gaztng intently toward the left and center. The other four had disappeared In the center of the zarbeea, which, however, I found in the morning to be simply a mass of old dried thorn branches, so the six -or eight shots I fired at it in the darkness did little harm. The . men were now bushing the fires and the cook supplied four or five of the men with sticks and with kerosene rapidly made some torches. I then noticed that the donkey was gazing more to the left of the center and, guided by the growling, which was going on continu ously, I crept on my hands and knees past the donkey for a couple of yards, The men with the torches were then a little behind my right shoulder. Suddenly the torches named up brightly, and the light being behind me somewhat I was not dazzled by it, but saw the lion dragging off a don key. It did not take me more than one second to snap both barrels at him and his growls at once ceased, After putting in two more cartridges and having the torches retrlmmed we again advanced to find the lion lying on his side, giving a few expiring gasps. His nose touched the donkey throat, a trickle of blood flowed down from under his left eye, and as I after ward found he had got my second bullet In the nape of the neck." WHEN THE CZAR WAS A BOY, He Had to Study the Same aa Other Boys. The Emperor Nicholas and his two brothers, George and Michael, were educated entirely by private tutors un der the direct superintendence of their father and mother. In the magnifl cent Anitchkoff Palace on the Nevsky Prospekt a bare, unearpeted room was assigned as the school room of the im perial children. Its furniture consist ed entirely of wooden desks and benches, and the. walls were decor ated by pictures cut from the foreign illustrated papers and pasted there by the boys themselves, The boys were sent to the school room immediately after an early breakfast and not allowed to leave it until noon. The afternoon was theirs for play, but the morning hours had to be devoted to study. They were taught but little mathe matics and, In fact, their whole educa turn consisted, practically of modern languages, drawing, music and Rus slan history. . Of the history of other countries they were taught more as they grew older, but the most they got of general history waa a mere smat tering after all. The result is that aside from his knowledge of modem languages the Czar Is not so well edu cated as the ordinary school boy of America. The Grand Duke George was near er the age of .Nicholas than his broth er Michael and was his companion in all sports and studies. George was stout, robust youth, and "Nicky" al ways looked up to him and regarded everything he did as just about right His death nearly broke the heart of his brother. , The other brother, the Grand. Duke Michael, being the youngest child, was always the favorite of his mother. At 15 Michael was made colonel of a reg iment of Russian Infantry and proudly put on his 'Uniform and reviewed his regiment Nicholas and George also had titles of honor as commanders In the army and navy, of Russia, and were provided with gorgeous uniforms. Nicholas liked to wear his uniform, but hated to go to reviews and other functions where there were soldiers.. If possible, he would steal away somewhere and would be found quietly sketching at time when the heir of the empire was wanted to sit on horseback before the army. The young general of 13 often had to be punished before he would go to a review and he had many good crying spell when he was told to put oh his uniform and go out and play soldier before the nation.
