The Brussels Post, 1902-7-10, Page 3R021I941 G:11r11 00X31.0ATTS, The I eattA1'0 latest sextnpli rentor :aces the modest elan/ that the mighty Gefaean army constitutes the eeppoz't of the Peace Of Europe and recalls 'other clahns of a eontradie- tory nature, When the Ozer and the President of From filet they derived Mach gitattifioatiou frons the thought that the mighty armies of 1lusala .and Franco constituted the support 'of the peaeo of Europe and e'lpreeeocl themselves on the subject with v fervid enthusiasm. The spirit of all such utterapeee is admirable, of .course, Men wbo can gazo Wen :military reviews with all their theta ling pageantry of mar and think only that the thousands armed with deadly ;weapons are the messengers. of ttie lamb of peace have reached a point in symbolism which teva can attain. But they have a number, of dillloulties to explain. If peaeo is the supremo desire 05 all these powers .and their neighbors there wo.tld semi to be no reason for a single ono of the mighty armies, Yet they keep adding to thein and keep in- creasing their naval establishments at the salve time. Since peace was constituted by the Germans and French In 1870, and a little later ,by the Russians and Turks the whole purpose semis to be to snake ready for just such another constitution, 'which means the employment .of the mighty armies in their one 'logical task o£ slaughtering pack other. Appeals- to religion do not improve the conventional army cant, for the armies stand as incontrovertible ovi- deuce, not of the desire for peace but of a mutual distrust. That is their one plain significance to the whole world, 'which cannotdiscriminate between the sincerity of one power and another,. And it is perfectly .obvious that there ,s cause for the mutual distrust and that one army -would not constitute the support of the peace of Europe all by'itself, but that it would encourage arrogant and dictatorial pretontions in its :own nation if there were not other armies to oppose it. When these princes, potentates and powers take to negotiating for a general disar- mament it will look es if they were dead in earnest with their. peace, talk, and not until thea, RESPECT FOR THE ARMY. A journal tells the following story attho expense of American military • titles.' Seine years ago a traveller in a certain populous country dls- trlet stopped to converse with a farmer who had aconsiderable num- ber of mea at work in his hay fields. "Most of these even are old sol- diers," said the farmer. ''Indeed ! Are any of thein ' pin- cers ?" "Two. of 'ern. One of 'ern there was a private, and that fellow be- yond was a corporal, but the man beyond him was a major, and that mats away. over in the corner was a cotoucl I" "Indeed ! And aro they all good 111011 1" "Well," said the farmer, "the pri- vote is a first-class man in every way, arses the oorporal's pretty good, too." "J3ut what about the major and the colonel ?" "Tho major's only so-so,"replied the farmer, with sono hesitation. "But the colonel ?" "Weil, sir—well,' 1. ain't a-goin' to Jetty a word against no man who has been a colonel in the American army, but I've made up my aurid to ono thing—I ain't a-goin' to hire any brigad ier,generale." IRRESISTIBLE. A county -court judge was called upon, not long ago, to. decide a ease in which a printer and stationer was plaintiff and a local porlt butcher defendant. The dispute, was about some paper bags which had been supplied by the printer with the butcher's advertisement thereon, "Now," said the judge, addressing the butcher, "were the bags Men- tioned here sent or not ?" "I had them, your honer," replied the elan ; "but the picture that the printer put inion thein didn't suit me, so I refused to pay, as -the bags were not what I wanted," Tho printer explained that, ]laving no suilalilo illustration, 'he thought the matter would boimproved it a representation of the 'Royal Arms were placed above the butcher's name and acldross, "Well, said the judge, as he look - ,ed at a specimen„' for my own part I think this picture of the lion aid the Unicorn looks much bettor than any representation of an old fat pig.” "Ohl"x e cln]rnad the defendant, "It may bo your honor ,tikes to eat animals like that, bpt,lny cttstomets don't and twtlrr a, 1 never kill lions and unicorns. 1 only kill fat pigs," How could the 1 0 judg a refute to de- cide in favor of the defendant after such an irresistible plea ?

To be healthy is the natural state, and disease is, in nice cases out of ten, our punishment for 501110 iudis- cetion or excess. Every tic we are ill it is part of our remaining youth which we are squandering, 'Every recovery.is a waste on our caiital life.- Therefore, do not let yourself be ill. The best plan to avoid ill- ness is to live regularly, simply, and with the frugality that stupid - per- sons alone willdeem painful or ec- centric. Sleep eight hours in every twenty-four. Ventilate rho room you work and sleep in. Very few rooplo, even among those who thine they are well up in modern ideas, have any ooncoption of what ventilation is. Always sleep •nvith the windows wide open, summer and, winter, Ex- amine seriously into your, list of so- cial obligations. Have the good sense to recognize that there is neither pleasure nor profit in most of what you regard as essential in that line, nncl silirpllty your social life. Complicated living breeds worry and worry .is the twain enemy of health and happiness, the one fiend- ish microbe that does more 'to de- stroy the health and happiness of mankind than any other. Drink no- thing but water or milk ; especially chink lots of water. You can never drink too much of it.. Shun alcohol as you would diluted vitriol. BAMBOO LIGUTUOUSES, The French Consul at Batavialays stress on the importauco of bamboo as a material for constructing build- ers' scaffolding, and he states that in Java oven a lighthouse has been built with its help. 'The power of resistance of a bamboo cane ll)ensal•- fug 8 inches to 10 inches in diame- ter, even with a length of 65' feet, is einorinous. Moreover•, bamboo is said not to rot either when in the ground or in water, while the drier and older it grows the firmer it be- comes. BABY'S OWN TABLET~.

"There exists each salnrkler in tho United States and Canada a coati'- gious inlanllnOtion al ' the eyes among cattle that is popularly called "pinkeye" from the red and Inflame ed appoierance of the eye.Tito die - ease is quite widely distributed,- and while it others at all season of tho year, It is most frequently observed during the 91.4411.1105 months iviiile cattle aro 00 pasture, ao dust and Pollen from plaints increase the ir- ritation of the eye. The dis'oaso was first observed by 'the writer in this State," says N, S. Mayo, of the Kansas Experimental Station, "But since that time has spread rapidly, and, is now quite common. The dfs- ense seems to attack young 'cattle rather than old, but cattle of all ages will take it, and it seems to affect old cattle moreseverely than calves. It docs not affect other ani main than cattle, Tule; CAUSE OF THE DISEASE liar not been . discovered, although it is believed to be due to a germ. The manner in which the disease is spread from one animal to another is little understood, although flies are believed to play rue 'important part, The disease, however, spreads during the winter when there aro no flies about. Direct contact seems to be a means of spreading the dis- ease, They undoubtedly aggravate it but the s�' intro- duced roust be intro duced into a locality by an infected 0111 11111 • The first syniptotn usually noticed is a profuse discharge of tears from ono eye, reaming (10)08 over the face. Dust and dirt often adhere to the moist hair and a dirty streak is observed, especially in white faced cattle, extending from the tenor corner of the eye downward across the Mee. The disease usually begins in one eye and later attacks the other eye. In some casts both eyes may. be attacked at the same time. Associated with the discharge of tears is a swelling of the eyelids which aro nearly closed, partly from the swelling, but principally to keep the light from the eye, as bright light .0001115 to increase the pain. The front part of the eyeball . bo- conies minty white in appearance, and one spot usually red or copper colored. At this point an abcess or Small gathering u811011y forms and looks to bo,a reddish fleshy mass. It breaks and discharges a small amount of pus or, natter that es- capes with the tears. As the animal recovers and the aye resumes its nor- mal condition, a white speck remains On the eyelid for some time as a' scar showing where the abeens ex- isted. fisted. In n few cases this abcess weakens the front of the eye to such en extent that it bursts and allows the contents of the anterior chain-bet- el hamberof the eye to escape. A FEW OF THE CASES where the eye bursts will heal and the animal will recover' the sight; but in the majority of caws the animal will be permanently blind in that eye, A fow cases are reported where both eyes Have burst and the animal was permanently blind in both eyes. During the acute stege of the disease If both eyes are affect- ed at the same time,. the lentunma- tion may be so severe as to cause: a 'Lenlpoeary blindness, the animal be- ing unable to see' at a11, end it is necessary to feed and water tlreni to pretreat thein from falling away rapidly in flesh. If Lhe animal Inas the disease in an acute form there is often some fever associated with it ; and in practically all cases the animals cense toruminate, and stand about with ears lopped and eyes closed exhibiting all signs of severe sllltering. Milch cows usually fall away iu the amount of mi115 secreted, or in 111)010 cases it may be stopped entirely. Owing to the closing of the eyes together with pain, the animals do not eat well, especially While in pasture, and as a result fall away in flesh. Since practically no animals clip of this disease and only a few arc perman- ently nllected as to sight, the great- est loss is in the shrinlcage of flee]) that follows the attach of the dis- ease.
