In reply his Majesty, who was greatly excited and agitated, said he only possessed 380 ounces of gold, and that he had no means of collecting the 50,000 ounces demanded by the British. To this the Governor replied that such a statement was merely child's play, and that the demands of the British must be complied with, as the King's ability to pay the amount demanded was too well known to ad- mit of any discussion. King Prempeh then asked for time; but the Governor answered that upon a previous occasion the Ashantis had failed to keep their promises made to the British, and that the latter had no intention of giving them the oppor- tunity of doing the same thing again.

LIKE A THUNDERBOLT. The Governor's words fell like a thunderbolt upon the Ashanti natives, and there was in impetuous move- ment forward which boded trouble. But the troops, who had been at the "ground arras," were promptly order- ed to "carry arms," and the machine- like precision with which the Martini - Henry carbines were lifted from the ground to the carry struck dismay into the Ashantis, and they fell back as if fearing a volley from the troops.

Jonathan Dunham, a young married man, met with a horrible death at Stoney Creak on Sunday, About 5.30 o'clock on Sunday morning an oil lamp exploded in the room in which he and his wife and child were sleeping. The burning oil spread over the floor, and Dunbam sprang out of bed, seized an armful of clothing and tried to smother the flames. Finding he could not do so Dunham picked up the lamp, and en- veloped in a blaze of fire, ran out of the room with the intention of throw- ing the lamp in the street. He, how- ever, was delayed by a door which he could not unlock for some time, and was terribly burned about the hand and arm. On reaching the street he flung the lamp down and rolled in the snow until the flames that enveloped him were extinguished. Unfortunately, Dunham, in addition to the burns on his arm, hands and body, bad inhaled the heated air, and he died in the afternoon.

In Bed 5 Months --Had Given Up All Hope of Getting Well—A Remedy Found at Last to which "I Owe My Life." Science has fully established the fact that all the nervous energy of our bodies is generated by nerve centres located near the base of the brain. When the supply of nerve force has been diminished either by excessive physical or mental labours, or owing to a derangement of the nerve centres, we are first conscious of a languor or tired and worn-out feeling, then of a mild form of nervousness, headache, or stomach trouble, which is perhaps suc- ceeded by nervous prostration, chronic indigestion, and dyspepsia, and a gen- eral sinking of the whole system. In this day of hurry, fret and worry, there are very few who enjoy perfect health; nearly everyone has some trouble, an ache, or pain, a weakness, a nerve trouble, something wrong 'with the stomach and bowels, poor blood, heart disease, or sick headache; all of which are brought on by a lack of nervous energy to enable the different organs of the body to perform their respective work. South American Nervine Tonic, the marvellous nerve fond andhealth giver, is asatisfying success, a wondrous boon to tired, sick, and overworked men and women, who have suffered years of discouragement and tried all manner of remedies without benefit. It is a modern, a scientific remedy, and in its wake follows abounding health. It is unlike all other remedies in that it is not designed to act on the different organs affected, but by its direct action on, the nerve centres,. which are nature's little batteries, it causes an increased supply of nervous energy to be generated, which in its turn thoroughly oils, as it were, the machinery of the body, thereby en- abling it to perform perfectly its dif- ferent functions, and without the slightest friction. If you have been reading of the re- markable cures wrought by South American Nervine, accounts of which we publish from week to week, and are still sceptical, we ask you to in- vestigate them by correspondence, and become convinced that they are true to the letter, Such a course may save you months, perhaps years, of suffer- ing and anxiety. The words that follow are strong, but they emanate from the heart, and speak the sentiments of thousands of women in the United States and Can- ada who know, through experience, of the healing virtues of the South American Nervine Tonic. Harriet E. Hall, of Waynetown, a . prominent and much respected lady, writes as follows:— " I owe my life to the great South American Nervine Tonic. I have been in bed for five months with a scrofulous tumour in my right side, and suffered with indigestion and nervous prostration. Had given up all hopes of- getting well. Had tried three dootors, with no relief. The first bottle of Nervine Tonic improved - me so much that I . was able to walk about, and a few bottles cured me en- tirely. Y believe it is the best medi- cine in the world. I-dannot recom- mend it too highly." ' Tired women, can you do better than become acquainted' with - this truly great remedy l C.
