SPECIAL DESPATOHES TO THE EXAMINER

From Yesterday's 9 o'clock Edition,

27.--The Paria

Lonpoy, May corre-~ pondent of the Daily Telegisph reports an interview he has had with Dr. Bertances.

the representative of the Cuban Republic and government in Paris

Dr. Bertances expresses the firm convic- tion that the war will be over sooner tha: is thought in Karope.

He says: “I'he Americans will experi- ence no difficulty in landing troops who willatonce be joined by the insurgents,

who are much stronger than is generally supposed,

Nor is there any\doubt that Rear Ad- miral Sampson will etrike a heavy blow shortly.

The insurgents wouid ratber accept an- nexation to the United States than the autonomy which Spain would grant.

Before another week the Americans wil be masters ot Havana ard firmly estab- lished in Cuba.”

—The Mail and Empire says that “T imperial hvuor accoredd te Dr. Parkin is: deserved recognition of an able ed» cational ist who bas done great work for Imperin] federation. Dr. Parkin has creled the globe addressing British avdiences on the objec: of British enion, and he has the pleasure of knowing that the seed be ha sown has taken'root. The doctor, as head of the Upper Canada College, is a typical British pub! ¢ schoolmaster. He is mak n, the college a Canadian Rugty.”

—Mail and Emryire: Mr Ci fford Sifto: i@ now distributing an immigration + am, | letin which itis maintained that Jarg sections of the North-West are unfit to se tlement. It looks as if the o'd opposi: iv io the Territories had not yet been ejimin- at d. Mr. Davin, who is one of the be- friends the North West has ever had, ha done # service to his country in calling attention to this assault upoa ou c untsy. He knows the North: Wee, and whether on the Minister al or the Opposi tion side of the House, loyally and ably champions its interests.

Scrofta :: Snake-Like

in its subtlety. It lies hidden for years in the ambush of the blood, and when it strikes it voids its venom alike on strength and beauty, disfiguring the one and undermining the other.

Ayer’s

Sarsaparilla

is a specific for scrofula in its worst and most malignant forms. Scrofula is a blood disease. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is a blood purifying medicine. Mineral medicines only drive scrofula below the surface. | Dr. J. C. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is a vegetable remedy and it eradicates the disease. There is no remedy for scrofula equal to Ayer’s Sarsa- parilla.

“T was cured of a long-standing case of scrofula by Dr. J. C. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. The disease first manifested itself when I was a child, by breaking ont in red blotches

all over my body. I was not free from the trouble until I took several bottles of

Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. That effected a per- manent cure, —Mzs. E. H. Syyver, Lehigh- j Oe - — ;

AT DAWN OF DAY.

Unbroken silence, brilliant eastern skies, Without a stirring ‘eat, Incense from celestial chalices, Afioat in midair brief, Giving to mortal sight and sense New beauties, rich and rare, To the thoughtful mind a moment For reverent praise and prayer.

Praise for our great Creator, Prayer for our wayworn hours, Hope for fulfilled promises, Trust in benignant power Mid awe inspiring silence, As night shades pass away, New life in slow procession Proclaims the dawn of day. 2Clark W. Bryan in Good Housckeeping.

“Tbe Rev. Mr. Cain tried to frighten tiem by firing arevolver over their heads, but seeing they wee best on mischief, h cast bis revolver away, and said he woule oot have any boy’s blood on his hands

** The war buys then seized the party. Mieeres Hatiirld, Archer avd Kent were str pped of their clothing, and they drag- yd them tack to the mission bouse, 1 front of which the wa’ boys cut down the

TOBACCO PIPES,

A Medical Authority That Says Clay Is Preferzble to Wood.

If tobacco smoking is justifiable at all on hygienic grounds, says The Lancet, it is generally conceded that the pipe is the least injurious means. Eut tobacco pipes differ considerably in material and shapes, both of which must be im- portant factors in determining the char- acter of the smoke. Thus there are the clay, the meerschaum and the various wooden pipes, the brier, cherry or my- all. Next to the tobacco, therefore, which should always be pure and free from added flavoring, an expedient which is resorted to far too commonly nowadays, probably in many instances to cover an inferior quality of tobacco, the best kind of pipe is a point to be considered. Even assuming that he is smoking good tobacco, the smoker knows bow differeut in character the smoke is wken drawn from a clay or a wooden bowl. There is probably a scientific ex- planation of this fact which must have some bearing on tbe noxious or innoca- ous character of the smoke associated with other products of combustion.

A soft clay is invariably cool smok- ing because the acid oils obtained on the destructive distillation of the tobac- co are absorbed instead cf collecting in a little pool, which must eventually either by the volutilization or by me- chanical conveyance reach the mouth. A particular pipe ‘‘smokes hot’’ not necessarily because the temperature of the smoke is high, but because it favors the passage by one of these means of the oils into the month, Meerschaum is another porous liuterial, Again, An old wooden pipe or brier, so dear to invet- erate smokers, becomes ‘‘smooth emok- ing’’ because the pores of the wood widen and so absorb, as is the case with clay or meerschaum, a large proportion of the tobacco oil.

Thus an old pipe ‘‘sweats,’’ as it is termed—that is, the oil intrudes into the expanded pores of the wooden bowl and at length exudes. Similarly a book shaped pipe must be better than a pipe the bowl of which is on the same level with the mouth, for the simple reason that in the former a considerable quan- tity of the oil is kept back in tbe U shaped part of the pipe, while in the latter the oil travels easily down tho stem. Ebonite stems are iu general ob- jectionable because they commonly spoil the true flavor of tobacco smoke. This is most probably’due to the sulpbur of the ebonite combining with the volatile oils in the smoke. We know insta where ebonite stems have produced c is- tinctly objectionable symptoms in the throat, most probably for the reason just given.

Bone or real amber makes a much more satisfactory stem, or the pipes should be of wood throughout. Amber substitutes, and especially celluloid, should be discarded entirely as danger- ous, while the flavor of camphor which these invariably communicate to the smoke forms a very unpleasant combi- nation. Pipes of special construction cannot be regarded with much favor, such as those which are said to be by- gienic and usually contain a so called nicotine absorber. Those smokers who require such auxiliary attachments had better not smoke at all. As a matter of fact tobacco yields little nicotine in the smoke produced on its partial combus- tion. It is mainly to vils of a tarry and acrid character that the toxic symptoms ef tobacco smoking are due.

Very Tall L.

One of the officer: the rebellion had a private in his co:. y Whom the boys jestingly named ‘*iuttle Mack,’’ because of his bigness. He was the tall- est man in the company—about 6 feet 3 inches—and one of the bravest in the regiment.

On one eccasion when the men were ordered to kneel down behind a stone fence in preparation for an expected as- sault the officer, who was preparing a surprise for the enemy, ou inspecting the line was astonished to see one large, serene face above the top of the fence. He shonted ont angrily, ‘‘There, you— you man with the head up, kneel down, sir!’’ The man did not move, and again the officer thundered, ‘‘Why don’& you knee] down, sir?’’

Oblivious to any danger and blind to the significance of his head being ex- posed, ‘‘ Little Mack’’ answered, ‘*‘I am kneeling down.”’

““Then,’’ shouted the officer, ‘‘put your head down, or you will have it g20¢ off, confound you!’’

Thereupon ‘‘Little Mack’ curled down behind the fence, grieving because the gaptain had howled at him.—Chi- gago Inter Ocean.

FACTS ABOUT HEALTH

It is Easy to Keep Well if We Know How—Some of the Conditions Neces- sary to Perfect Health.

The importance of maintaining good health is easily understood, and it is really a simple matter if we take a cor- rect view of the conditions required. In perfect health the stomach promptly digests food, and thus prepares nourish- ment. The blood is employed to carry this nourishment to the organs, nerves, muscles and tissues which need it. The first great essential for good health, there- tore, is pure, rich blood. Now it is cer- tainly a fact that no medicine has such a record of cures as Hoed’s Sarsaparilla. It is literally true that there are hundreds of people alive and well today who would have been in their graves had they not It is depended upon as a family medicine and genera} regulator of the system by tens of thou- sands cf people. Sarsaparilla makes the blood pure. This

is the secret of its great success. Keep your system in g health by keeping your blood pure with Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which absolutely cures when other medi- cines fail to-do any good whatever.
