than for more than 80 years.
Tho great marcity and high Prices
are 'due to several causes, From
August, 1898, Lill June, 184, a period
of nine or ten Months, little or no
rain fell; consequently the wheat
crop was almost an entire failure in
many places. In July and August a
great artily of caterpillars In many
places devoured 'the summer crops.
Later, a hailstorm passed over a large
motion of the country and did im-
mense danger. During July and
other diseases overtook Lhe half

then in many districts there has been

There Is the greatest,• distress in the
counties of Woutung, Hal Young,
Ctimel, Theo Uheo, along the eastern
sea, and the same distress is said to
prevail in Ohuahing, loin Chao, and
farther south. Hundreds of men,wo-
men and children are fleeing from
these districts trying to reach Man-
churia or other more favored places
before the severs; winter comes on, as
the only hope of escaping starvation
Many were already emaciated for
want of nourishing food.
The people gather the loaves of the
willow, locust and other trees, also of
the potato vine, and roots on the
hills and murualtaina to use for food.
So much sickness and so many
deaths have not been heard of for
years. When fever, dysentery and
other diseases overtake the hat
starved people there seems to be but
little hope of recovery. Many who
in ordinary years have sufficient say
they can menage to live only to the
end of the year, and after that, un-
less help Comes, they must die.
LEANNESS AND OBESITY.
There are very few people who are
entirety satisfied with their personal
appearance; one is Loo stout, another
too thin, a third too tall, and so on. •
Leanness, like obesity, is often here-
ditarybut oircumstanoes will often
keep one alien, such as excise of worry,
loss of sleep, living in very hot clim-
ates, irregularity of meets, temper,
eta.
Those suffering from attenuation
should try to take life as easily and
pleasantly as they tan, and sleep and
rest all possible, while fresh air is very
essen Lial.
!Take exercise in moderation, avoid
excitement, fits of temper, such as
jealousy, envy, etc., and do :not give
wayto grief or worry over things. r
For diet, take meat and vegetables
combined, plenty of butter, good
bread, milk, milk 'puddings, blank
grapes, bananas, sweets, chocolate,
and such foods.
A glass of milk to which are added
L new laid egg and a teaspoonful of
sugar, taken daily, ,has been proved
an excellent flesh producer.
Milk is invaluable for fattening pur-
poses, and iL is well to take a glass
of warm milk just before retiring. Do
not drink it down, just sip it, and rest
between each sip; then milk will not
disagree with even the moat delicate
stomach,
If milk is swallowed hastily it enters
into the .stomach and then forms In
one solid curdled mass, difficult to di-
gest. If, however, the Rome quantity
be sipped, and 5 minutes al least'oc-
cupied in drinking a glass of milk,
then, on reaching the stomach, it is so
divided that when coagulated, as it.
must be by the gastric juices while
digestion is going on, instead of being
in one hard, condensed mass, upon the
outside of which only the digestive
fluids can act, 'it is more in tire form
e of a sponge, and in and out of the en-
tire hulk the gastrio juice can freely
ant.
Take plenty of Lime over meals, eat
slowly and rest after dinner. A nap
of 10 or 15 minutes will be of great
benefit.
For obesity, just the .opposite rules
must be observed, Sleep no more
than is actually a necessity for
health's sake, drink very little of any-
thing, fluids bring flesh-IArodueing.
Bat toast instead of bread, take only
,lean meat, no gravy, tie potatoes, rice,
intik, sweets, fat, butter, theme, and
mob things.
'Plenty of active exercise is necessary
and +sleep en a mattress. Bat no
;more than will just serve to satisfy
the appetite, ; Take Bovril it is
strengthening, but not fattening,
Avoid all sweet things, especially
sugar.

; Pointe !'!talk all possible.
'.0hieetpeople are, as a rule, excitable,
lively, easily agitated etc.; still it is
r : use to grieve over your thinness,
: 'r remember how fight, grateful, and
Lase are the movements of thin people.
Sweet things, sour things, also very
,bot or cold driake and foods, are bad
for the teeth.
Seven hours' sleep, if it be a peace -
fel sleep, free from dreams anti dis-

woman, and 10.80 or 11 o'clook is quite

says a writer in elhamber's Journal.

inscription, such as,.''Thy strength

the following admonition; "Trust lu

Lass and True," woe insnribed on ane
other weapon, and on a third, "Nev-
er drulw this sword without a reason,
andrc
n9ve return It into its sheath
until honor is satisfied" which was
the Keiser's rendering of a motto,
very popular once upon It time on
Toledo blades, which Evan, "Do not
draw me without reason; . do not
sheath me without honer:" For a
weapon presented) by a.n 'an Of peace
to a soldier the legend once engraved
on a Tea rara !lad's, " My value varies
with the hand that holds me," would
be rather appropriate; but another in-
scription, " When this viper stings
there is no pure in any doctor's shops,"
would be hardly suitable for one .who
values his own prowess at iso modest
a figure as the Sirdar.
Some little time ago it was an-
nounced in a contemporary that the
"SWORD OF CEREMONY
mads by Prcrf. Fferkomer, which is to
be used at Welsh eisteddfods of the
futuee, was "the largest sword on re-
cord," and doubtless 3;f placed in tbe-
hands of a modern Godfrey de Bette-
ion—who, it will be recalled, with a
two-hunded'sword cleaved a Turkin-
to halves, from. the shoulder to the
hips—its SU feet two inches of length
would be quite long enough for any
who had a business engagement with.
it. But although it exceeds by two
Inches the thirty pound, avoirdupois,
weapon used by Henry the Pious,
Duke of Silesia, andis, probably more
lengthy than th.e famous two-hand-
ed sward of Archibald Bell -the -Oat or
Exeter's sword of stia.te, it is shill ten
inches shorter than the seven -foot
ceremonial sword, weighing eighteen
pounds, that was mad'* for Edward
III.,, and le now preserved in West-
minster Abbey.
On the occasion of George Ill.'s cor-
onation, the sword of state, says Her-
at* Walpole, was forgotten—they do
these things better nowadays—and the
Lord Mayor's sword was borrowed for
the occasion. Although nothing is said
concerning, its identity, undoubtedly
It would be the celebrated pearl sword
that was Gtuliaeal, "There are four
swords," said a writer at the begin-
ning oS tbe century, apropos of the
Lord Mayor's-" the black, used on
Goad Tlriday, Jan. 30, fine of London
and all fast days, when bis Lordship
ought to go to S. Paullts; the common
owned, to go to sessions eourts of
Aldermen ; , . , the Sunday sword.
and the pearl sword, which used to
be carried on very rare oeoasions only,
but is amu exhibited at any time"
The office of meted -bearer at that
time was a valuable oaue, the last hold-
er of the post purehaising it, giving
£7,000 font the office, which he could
have -sold for £9,000, "but was pre-
vented by thea corporation," who
made le
A GIFT PLACE.
Besides apartments in the Old Bailey
and other privileges, the sword -bearer
derived emolument from granting ad-
mission to two galleries during the
sessions.
Apropos of the sword of state, we
learn elsewhere, with regard bo the
e,oronn'tion 01 her Majesty, that " the
Queen, riding up end going to,the
tur, offers the sword there in the
scabbard, delivering It to the Arch-
bishop, who places it on the alter. The
Queen then retunms and sits down in
linin, Edward's chair, and the Lord
g �
who first received the sword offerot:h
the price of it, Lund having thus re-
deemed it: Tecefveth it from off the
anter by the Dean of Westminster,
and teraweth it out of the scabbard
and conies it naked before her Ma-
jesty during the rest of the salemn-

A FATHER'S GRATITUDE.
dills Little Child Was Attacked With Heart
Trouble and Doctors Said She Could
Not Recover—Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
Have Made Um. Sound and Lively no 0
Cricket.
From Lhe Sun, Belleville, Ont.
In a comfortable farm home in
Sydney, near Belleville, lives Mr. T.
W. Doxtater, ,,prosperous farmer and
most respected citizen. In this plea-
sant home the heart of a father and
mother boats with gratitude to Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, because they
firmly believe they saved the life of
their litale daughter. A reporter of
the Sun having heard of the case
drove out to Mr. Doxtater's for the
purpose of getting at the facts, and
found both father and mother of the
little girl very enthusiastio in their
praise of the medicine that has un-
questionably done so much' to relieve
suffering in this country. Said. Mr.
.D,oxtater : " Yes, we have good rea-
son for praising Dr. Williams'. Pink
Pills, I think they are worth ,ten
times their weight In gold. When our
little daughter Clara was about+eight
years old she was stricken with what
the doctors sitid was heart trouble.
Up to that time she had been a strong
healthy child: The first symptoms
ahown were fainting spells, and 'these
would attack her without a moment's
warning. We consulted a doctor, um -
der whose care she was for u. tame, but
the treatment did her no good—in fact:
'she was growing worse, non we call-
ed in another doctor and he frankly
told us Mutt he meld hold out but
little hope for her recovery. By this
time she was confined to bed, and
for three months was as helpless as
an infant. In some of the fainting
spells ship was attached with convul-
sions. Her applee seemed ent[rely
gone and slle wets reduced to a living
ekeleion. At thie time I read the
particulars 3f a cure through the use
of Dr, Williams' Pink Pills, which
gave me luope', and I determined tent.

were used she aeomod brighter. Than

her cure entirely to the use of Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, and if anyone,
doubts the truth of this abatement
you turn refer thele either to myself
or my wife."
Dr, Williams' Piffle Pills are just as
valuable in the nem of ahildi'en as
willl adults, and puny little, ones
would soon thrive and grew fat under
his treatment, which has no equal for
