Shall one take thu persecutions of the early Christian mid pits thence to tho cru sades und the wars between thu Hu ll!! mid the Scotch and IrlshV Shall one Include the ltcfnruiatlou mid thu Sepoy rebellion? Merely to consider those of modern date Is to recall tho massacres In Macedonia by the Turks, the Itoxer outbreak In China, tho con stant state of volcanic unrest In Austria-Hungary, the more recent murder on disturbances In tho Caucasus, the peret'iitiou of tho Jew all over tho world, and many of the lynchlugs of negroes In the United State. Differ ent races of the hiiiiio religion and member of the sauio race who differ lu religious belief may llvo amicably together, but when different race of different religion are placed slilo by side the result may bo Ulcer bringing lite mid powder into contact.

A well n wo can Judge It I about onco lu every six mouths tlmt It I proposed lu this country to put to deatli by paluless met hods peoplo who nro hopelessly 111 and who tiro In terri ble agony. The proposal generally emanate from thu medical faculty, hut II latest uppcariinco I lu the con vention of tho American Humane As-' soclatlon, whero It advocates wero women, and tho physicians opposed It. One of tho speaker having by way of illustration described the sufferings of tho victim of ii recent railroad acci dent, Mrs, Totten rose and said pa Hlouutely: "If I had been lu that wreck and had seen cases such as havo been described und hud a pistol I would certainly havo shot tho sufferers to put then out of tbelr misery," All r v r. -srfssjjsssssm - v. fy MsjLB.' sVai 'iiaVBlMsV -sW' " ' t4ksBsSaliBBBV.,':tVYkF -vt ' U BlWBP-fVBSTlBV I" ' aBBBBBBBBBaBBBBi ' aBkJ" -v '' "Ml ';,':'bbBbiBbiBbiBbiBbiBbiBbiBbiR; ' . . l . ' i .t j WASHBURNE, In tho Ninth District. till doc great credit to the heart of I hose women, but It only show that their heart me better than their Judg ment. In this matter they see only one sldo of the subject. Probably ev ery mature person tlmt ever lived has been deeply nffected by the suffering of i people wiio seemed certain to die In ii short lime anyway und lias said In hi haste that they ought to bo chloroformed to death, at least if they themselves desired It. Till I what he says lu hi haste, but Hit sober second thought I always different. There are two obvious objection to such u practice u these women pro pose. The llrst I that the wisest man en eartli could not tell when the prop er time to take a liuuimi life iu tills fashion laid come. Take the ease mentioned in the convention, of a mini caught tinder a railroad wreck mid on the point of being burned alive by the approaching flame. That will be considered a strong ease, and yet If the wind should suddenly change ho would be saved. Have these kind hearted women never heard of people whom all the attendant physician gave up to die und yet who got well' llnw they never heard of people who were supposed to Im actually dead and wero buried nml yet who were not dead mid wero exhumed nml recov ered? Who, then, would be rush enough to pronounce a cut hopeless nnd pioceeil to administer chloroform er inoi'phiurV The other objection Is tlmt If tlm state were to legallr.e etp thntmshi nearly everybody would die iu Unit way except the Inmate of the asylum. Just us certainly us u sick person had any money or any ene mies, anjone who wa tired of hi au thority or afraid of hi Influence, he would be poisoned and killed by some of those around him as "hopelessly 111" and "at hi own reittest." A pliyl clan's tertlllcate might be made neces sary, but that would only cost $''. Theso considerations nro so weighty mid mi obylou that thoughtful people have always left till "reform" to those who were surcharged with senti mentality, effeminacy, paganism, bar barism and sensationalism, with whom It will always remain. It would bo a good Idea for every city, town, village and hamlet along the line of any railroad to put up a idgn or two somewiieie Iu proximity to thu railroad station setting forth thu uamu of the town mid whatever hi. m It ha for historic, residential mid Industrial interest. Traveler often wonder, wl.eu a train come to a stop, what the town I that spieails out be for them and wherein lies If exctiso for being. True, the railroad are doing a great deal to exploit and advertise the attraction, scenic mid commercial, of most of tho more Important places, hut It wouldn't be nn altogether Imd Idea for tho town to do a little koiiio llilug themselves, If only to set up a bulletin of fact for the enlightenment of tho passing traveler. A favorite sport with tho morose scientist Is to annihilate Cupid. Oc casionally till Is varied by glvlna him spectacles to remedy his blind ness. Mr. Forbos Wlnslow, n brain specialist In Washington, D. C is tho latest executioner of Cupid. Accord lug to him love is a thing of tho past. Higher education und development, hu says, nro killing the dlvluu pas sion. He claim to havo discovered, lu hi study of brain, the liualltle tlmt have routed Cupid from hi prom ised place in human affairs; and he point nut tho diminishing numbers of Htilcldeh oceaslomil by love, and other tragedies of thu heart, a sub stantiation for Ills statement. It Is perilous to iiucstlon the coricctncss of hcleutllle research as prosecuted lu this day. Hut 1 not science going beyond It legitimate Held when It prowl over Into the domain of tho emotion mid affections It is hard to believo that love Is dead. One has only to follow closely tho days' hap pening to know that there 1 no per ceptible deereaso In tho number of heart tragedies. In this matter tho world I much the same nil over, nnd It changes but little, Men and women still love and grow Jealous, us they havo from tho beginning. Tho double murder and sulcldo that uro prompted by Jealousy are still too common to permit tho belief that Cupid has been tijiulo to see, Tho runaway match In which love is too strong for surround lug Influences occurs too frequently to leave any question na to lovo's power. Love Is still ouo of tho fundamental verities of life. It is ns natural as birth, or death. It In a part of this life, despite life's universal artificial!. ty, nnd It will continue to bo so wher ever men nnd women continue to be human, In spite of tho best efforts of thu scientists. Many manufacturers ndvcrtlso .their wnres by offerlbg money rewards to any one who will prove thnt the goods nro not ns represented. It remains for it Gorman manufacturer to give this kind of guarantee n new turn. Ho advertises, "Anybody who can prove tlint my tnploca Is damaging to the health will at onco receive three package free." Tugs sometimes warrant but never make the quality of tho good. In this day of ready labels wo have tho "simple life" nnd tho "strenuous llfo" nnd the "abundant life" nnd the "con templative life." Some one has sug gested that wo disregard tho ndjec live and devote ourselves, ns Urown lug teaches, to llfo. A little publicity ns to those evil minded legislator who have been blackmailing the insurance companies Is necessarily tho next thing. This Is where the p'ot thickens. A Wonderful Natural Mineral Water One of the most wonderful discover ies of tho ago nnd onu which has pro ven a positive blessing to humanity Is the now world famous Avcnc Nat ural Medicinal Water. Till tho nilddlo of the eighteenth cen tury tho Avcnc Natural Medicinal Wa ter, us yet unknown, wns wasted lu n pond between tho mountain surround ing Avcnc, Los llalns llcrnult, Franco. Tho owner of this region having ouo of his horses nffected by n strong cu taneous eruption, turned htm looso to provent contagion. Tho horse was seen drinking and wallowing In this Witter several times n day. Soon nfter the animal wns entirely cured, his coat as glosjy a ever, without tho least traco of his disease remaining. Tho owner, surprised nt this roninrk able cure, spoko of It to several physi cians, who, nfter examining tho water, believed In lis curative power nnd pledged tho owner to build a large ba sin lu 1751. Several persons living In the vicinity, affected with skin dis eases, wero cured by this extraordinary witter. Successively, tho reputation of theso Springs grew nnd the sick peo ple arrived in such great numbers thnt It grew necessary to build moro und more basins nnd hotels for their ac commodation. Tho Avcno Nntttrn'i Mineral Water Company, 125(1 Michigan nventic, Chi cago, Is the direct Importer nnd solo owner for tho United States and Can-' ndn.

Tho Springs nro located nt Avene-Lcs-Ilnlus Iloraulr, Franco,, nnd Issue, geologically speaking, from phyllndlen metamorphlc ground nnd ltmcstono of transition close to volcanic masse. As n medical agent tho "Avene Nat ural Mcdlclnnl Water" hn demon strated beyond tho slightest shndnw of n doubt that it is truly remarkable. Its many almost miraculous cures servo to emphasize this statement. Its great therapeutic value becomes rapid ly apparent nfter n brief trial, benefl clal results being positive. ' Avcno Js also u tnblo water of great merit, becauso Its Influence upon tho digestive tract Is most excellent. Avene' great medicinal properties nro of great value lu All Skin Dlseasos, Stomach, Ilowol nnd Kidney troubles, Ithouumtlsm, Anemia, Nervous Kx ImiiHtlon and all diseases resulting from ninl-nutrltlon.
