"Though somewhat averse to patent

CATARSHaSSSSi

Catarrh 13 not merely art inflammation of the tissues of the head and
throat, as the symptoms cf ringing; noises in the ears, mucous dropping back
into the throat, continual hawking and spitting, etc., would seem to indi

part of the system are involved. Catarrh i3 due to the presence of an excess
of uric acid in the Mood." The Liver, Kidneys and Bowels frequently be
come torpid and dull in their action and instead of carrying oil the refuse
and waste of the body, leave it to sour and form uric acid in the system.
This is taken up by the blood and through it3 circulation distributed to all
parts of the system. These impurities ft the blood irritate and inflame
the .different membranes and tissues of the body, and the contracting
of a cold will start the secretions and other disgusting and disagreeable
symptoms of Catarrh. As the blood goes to all part9 of the body the ca
tarrhal poison affects all parts of the system. The head has a tight, full
feeling, nose continually stopped up, pains above the eyes, slight fever

A Queer Animal.
The ermine is a queer animal ; it Is
one tiling in winter, and another thing
in summer. In winter, its fur is as
white as snow, and it is called the
ermine; in summer, it turns a reuuisu-
browu on the upper part of the body
and a light yellow on the lower part.
and it Is then called the stoat. This
change Is familiar to naturalists, but
not to ordinary people, and the ermine
and the stoat are there"ore generally
resarded as distinct aulma's. The fi

in its ways that it is almost as difficult
to catch it as it is to "catch a weasel
asleep." In fact, about the only way
to capture It Is to mark Its course from

'There Is nothing to fear." said Annt

Molly had a great admiration for
her older brother Jack, for h tts I

surprised when coming into the ball to
find Jack sitting by himself In a cor

thing that a girl can," he said, with
determination.
When Molly went upon the platform
she did feel rather timid. he did not
believe the little hall could hold so
many pairs of eyes, and they were ev

away over them until she found Jack,

ORIGIN OF "FOREIfiN DEVIL.
Forrlhle ( hlneae Expression for Pi
rate ( hanged to Apply to Aliens.
Now we are In a position to answer
a question at the outset of the paper
as to the origin of the term translated
"foreign devil." It is literally "ocean
demon," a forcible Chinese term for
pirate. The usual term "sea robber"
became "ocean demon" after tbis Chi
nese experience of unscrupulous for
eign pirates who became marauoers on
shore as well. From the Chinese
standpoint was not the term Justified
In those days? And not only did the
Portuguese nation furnish one or two
unworthy specimens of Europeans but
so did Holland and so did England lu
the years which followed.
The China seas, In addition to their
own bands of native pirates, became in
fested lu those early years with far
more daring piratical spirits from these
three nations. "c!, at Urot couiiiied to
the coast, the term "ocean demon" or
pirate gradually spread Into the inte
rior, being propagated from place to
place in reports and rumors which
doubtless magnified the actual doings
ot the lawless Europeans Into deeds of
fiendish atrocity. Then after a genera
tion or so the term "foreign demon"
was utilized by mothers with fractious
childreu, much as the name Bonaparte
was for a while in Euglaud:'"lf vov
don't stop that noise I'll tell Boney to
come and take you !" The mention of
"ocean fiends" was found to afford a
potent sedative for blatant Juveniles,
and so It has continued In use since
the sixteenth century until the present
generation, an interesting if uup'easant
Instance of Chinese conservatism.
We suggested at the start that It Is
dying down in many places. Having
been so long-lived in the past, it is
dying hard. And. as all will admit, it
lias been the missionary foreigners or
the more genial men and women of
that class who have Deen th chief
agents in changing it for something bet
ter. Not that the foreign babies have
not helped. When In the 'no's Lr Por
ter Smith of Hankow walked in the
Chinese streets, with his little child on
his shoulder the Chinese exclaimed:
