The Clinton New Era, 1898-10-28, Page 6October 28, 1898 Liver Trouble When the yellow flag of quarantine b hoisted over a dwelling it means disease and danger. So when the yellow flag flies in the face --when the cheek is sallow and the clear white of the eye is dyed sefron—there is danger. It is liver trouble. The liver is one of the most im- portant organs of the body. On the ;peeper discharge of its functions depend Ihuman health and happiness. When the Aver fails of its duty, poisons at once be- - to generate, g rate, and other organa of the body become involved. Never neglect the liver if you valve health. If you are suffering from liver trouble, begin at once the use of AYEit's PILLS and you will Sind prompt relief and permanent cure. "I was to weakened by liver trouble that I could scarcely lift my head. While in this condition I began the use of Ayer'a Pills, and finding almost immediate benefit, continued their use until I was cured of any complaint." El. R. W. BENTLEY, Towner, N. D.

Elaborate Social Courtesies That A Exciaanged In Everyday Life—al braced and lCleutre — The Etlquet of Sneezes and Yawns. T AN ENGINEER'S STORY. DD Suffered the Pangs of Rheuma" tism for Years. r• 111, Was Reduced in weight from 180 to 130 te In contrast to some northern undone, Is hardly too much to litty that the Mo of whatever class, is born a gentlema There is such a grace about the humble such an easy dignity, that whenever o cuiestances place thent in positions calls for the exercise of courtesy they very s dom tail to respond, and thus it comes pace that in a den000ratic nation, In wig every man of ability—cunning perha would be the better word—may rise to t highest place, even though he start life as a slave, the self proclaiming parvenu is practically nonexistent. This is not, how- ever, to imply that gaucherie and the pleasant manners which Dome from evil dispositions or stupidity are unknown. Unfortunately the life led by the average Moor is one that dwarfs refinement of in- tellect, as it does development of mind, and the vices to which the majority euc- cuinb in early life too often stultify the most prominent commencement. It is a pretty sight to see two elderly, dignified Moors salute. With measured pace, the eyes of each fixed on those of the other, they approaoh with a slight inclina- tion, holding the right hands slightly ad- vanced. Tliey press their finger tips to- gether and begin a volley of proscribed salutations, greetings and inquiries, hard- ly pausing to insert replies and ejaculate "God bo praised!" Then each presses the finger tips which have been honored by contact with those of his friends against his lips and then upon his heart as 110 raises hie head and redoubles his saluta- tions. To every fellow Moslem the gneoting is given "Es-salarn alaikum" ('Peace be unto you"). To which the answer is "Wo alai kumes-salarn ("And to you be peace"). To the unbeliever the nearest approach to this permitted is "Ala salarn' tak" ("On thy peace"), which might mean anything. The way to spend the parting guest is to exclaim, "God give thee peace," or, more curtly, "In peace." To those whohoe pres- ence has never been desired it is usual to exclaim in tones sufficiently explicit, "Allah ihaun-akl" ("God protect theel") Un rriival it is customary to exclaim to t'ro feet, i"yVelcomo to thee!" or "Mar- habban, ahlqu Iva sajdan" ('Be welcome, at home, and at ease"). 9oir�eo(is lntee fie atortQ0 fell rhiejt ad fast. "How art thou? Thi hoUKcr '—the nearest approach perliilftfiu to Inquiry after a man's wifo. "Thy relatives?- \Vhat news? Is nothing wrong?" To which he replies, if there is nothing specially to complain of : "Al right, thank God. All are in prosperity.' Or, if bad news has to be given, "Go knows. Everything is in the hand of God.' When a Moslem meets a European ao oompanied by a Moor, though the latter be the servant, ho not infrequently ignores the presence of the foreigner and offers the salutation to his ooreligionist only, but it he passes a mixed company of Moors and Jews, or Christians, ho exclaims, "Peace be on tho people of Islam." If two such parties meet on the road, the phrase is, "Peace be to those accompanying the Jews," or "the Nazarenes," and it is suf- ficient for ono of each party to give and return tho greeting, though in the coun- try several often do so. Inferiors saluting superiors usually kiss the band, shoulder, top of the turban, or fent, or the knee or stirrup of a horseman, according to the terms on which they approach. Tho more abject forms are naturally only used to implore afavor, though they are employed sometimes to Europeans. In the extremity of supplication the very feet of one's horse aro embraced. Tho old custom of falling on one anoth- er's necks is still in vogue between friends long separated. Men and women restrict their greetings in publio to words, but personally I was some ;•' at startled by tho sudden embrace of .' negress whose free- dom my father had eon the means of ob- taining when rets:, ning to the country after some years' '; senoe. The kisses on such occasions ar., however, fortunately delivered in the air';.r on the shoulder. It is customary to oxc sin at such meetings, "I have been cloacae ed for thee." To judge from the exclamations ever on the tongues of the Moors, they might be an extremely pious people, and no doubt there am among them those who really mean what they say, but generally the most religious phrases have degenerated into vain repetition. Elaborate curses fall almost as freely. When about to repeat some part of tho Koren or a prayer, the petition Is com- monly uttered, "I take refuge with God from' eaten, the stoned," and when any- thing great or alarming occurs they ex- claim, "There is neither change nor power, save in God, the High, the Mighty!" Quo- tations from the Koran are also freely in- troduced in conversation by the learned, as aro proverbs and eayings by the gener- nifty of Moors, a knowledge of wbioh is a great help in conversation. Several little social. usages of Moorish fi life deserve attention, though not conned to Morocco, such as the exclamation to one who snoozes, "The forgiveness of God be on me and on thea!" to which thoroply is, "Justice and praise to God!" If a man who yawns in public dons not use the prescribed formula, any ono speaking to him may place the back of his band to his mouth, uttering a pious sentence, as the devil is accredited with performing an un- pleasant operation in yawning mouths. On the other hand, any ono wearing a new garment or looking specially spruce or having performed some clever or merito- rious act receives the compliment, "Bi sahh't-ak" ("In thy strength"). A Moor knows how to enjoy agood joke to the full, and, seated on the floor, he bends backward and forward without re- straint in his laughter. Often the toiler of the story will join in the process to.,. Raising their right hands far above their heads as they roll back, they hring thein together to a hearty shako. There never was a grander way of enjoying a joke in- vented. Tile women when happy give vont to their feelings by a shrill "Yoo yoo, yoo yoo, yoo yoo yoo 1"—Pall Mall Gazette.

A few years to ago it was thought that an early grave oh would be hie; on the contrary, however, he Ps is now stout and strong, and the story of he hie recovery is on the tips of almost all the citizens of that burgh. The writer, while visiting in the village, could not fail to hear of his recovery, and with the reporter's proverbial nose for news deoided to put to the proof the gossip of the village. The re- porter visited Mr McKenzie's home and was introduced tq Mrs McKenzie. Enquiry elicited the information that M'r McKenzie was not at home, but when informed as to his mission the lady freely consented to tell the reporter of her husband's case. Her story tuns like this : "Mr McKenzie is 40 years of age, an engineer by profession,and is now on a boat on the lakes. About fiye yeare ago he began to feel twinges of rheu- matism in different parts of hie body and Limbs. For a time he did not think muob of it, but it gradually got worse until the pain was each that he was unable to work, and could not get rest at nights. I would have to get up two or three times of a night,” said Mrs McKenzie, "to try and relieve this intense suffering. Of course he consulted a physician, who pronounced his trouble sciatic rheumatism, The doctor did what he could for him, but without giving him any permanent relief. This Went on for several years; sometimes he would be some better and try to work; then the trouble would come again and be as bad as ever. He was pulled down from being a stout man of 180 pounds to about 130, and was so thin and miserable that all who knew him thought it would be only a matter of a short time until he would be in his grave. For four years did be thus drag along a miserable existence, until in the beginning of 1897, someone recommended Dr. Will- iam's Pink Pills. Tired of medicine, with some reluctance he procured a box and gave them a trial. Almost at once a ohenge was perceptible, and, as he kept on taking them, the improvement continned, and be d In the Bonk of England.

Skillful and Ornamental Carving Done by the Native Artleans. An offiolal report issued in India under the name of the "Agricultural Ledger," contains some interesting information concerning artistic work In bison and buf- falo horn in that country. The ornamental work in bison horn is an industry carried on in the Ratnaglri distrlot as a side line by many who are also carpenters and metal workers, and who have acquired the art from their forefathers. Bison horns aro used because the ornaments usually made are small stands for offerings in the tem- ples, and the restrictions of the Brahman faith would nob allow the worshipers to touch them if they were made of cow horn. The horn is prepared by being kept moist with cocoanut oil, and is then heat- ed before a fire, when it becomes as soft as wax and can be pressed into the required form, tools and a small lathe completing the design. The oil upon being heated dose not disoolor the born, but gives it a translucence whloh produces a very pleas- ing effect. The horn after being carved is polished with the rough loaves of a tree of the Sous tribe which grows in the district, and serves as a natural sandpaper. Ad- ditional ornamentation, which is general- ly of a simple and graceful kind, is done with steel graving tools. Like most other native artisans, the Ratnagiri horn carvers use very few tools. The entire equipment usually consists merely of a small Iathe, a fine saw, a pair of calipers and perhaps • file. The commonest ornament is a sacred bull supporting a flat tray, with a cobra rising out of the middle and rearing above it with expanded hood. The conventional $gures are those commonly used in the brass work and embroidery and even in the ruetio *aural decorations of the coun- try, and consist of circles with regular or undulating circumferences, radiating lines, loops and rings arranged in grace- ful patterns. In Bengal ornaments of buffalo horn are made at Monghyr and consist chiefly of necklaces and similar objects of personal adornment. Combs are made in Dacca, where about 100 Mohammedans are em- ployed in the industry. A special caste in Balasot, on the coast below Calcutta, is engaged in the production of walking sticks made of horn. In Madras blank born is worked by the Vishnu Brahmans of Vizagapatafn, who turn out bezique boxes, picture frames and similar articles of very beautiful design.—Manufacturer. • Why is it that one man is old and decrep- id at 45,and another hale and hearty at 80?

INCALCULABLE GOOD, AN EXPRESSION OF FAITH. Dr. Ward's Blood and Nerve Pills have done me an incalculable amount of good. I think they are the best, surest and quickest acting cure for nervousness, unhealthy action of the heart, insomnia or sleeplessness, anemia or impoverished blood, loss of appetite, general debility and ill -health. For nine years, before I com- menced taking Dr. Ward's Blood and nerve Pills, my heart was weak and in an unhealthy state. Its action was so much impaired that I could not walk across the street without suffering great distress, my heart fluttering and beating so rapidly that I could scarcely breathe, causing faintness, loss of strength, and leaving my nerves all unstrung. My sleep was very much disturbed, I had no appetite and there was little strength or vitality in my blood ; I was always excessively nervous. I have now taken three boxes of Dr. Ward's Blood and Nerve Pills and since taking them I have not been away from my business an hour. Before taking these pills it was a frequent occurrence for me to be away from business. As a result of taking Dr. Ward's Pills my heart is perfectly healthy and strong and gives me no distress or trouble whatever. They removed all nerve trouble, made my nerves strong and gave me healthy sleep. These pills also made my blood rich and strong and gave me a healthy appetite. Dr. Ward's Pills have given me perfect health, restoring my lost strength, in place of continual ill -health, weakness, heart trouble and nervousness. In justice I cannot speak too highly of this wonderful medicine. Signed, Miss N, Millward, Walton St., Port Hope, Ont.
