- SOLDIERS OF THE WORLD.
Secretary of War Root recently
transmitted to congress a communi
cation relative to the war footings of
the different nations which, affords in
teresting comparisons.
Of the civilized nations, European
Kassia contains tne largest bodycapa
ble of bearing arms. ' Twenty-two
million men are available. Of these
5,200,000 would be experienced in the
use of arms, that number having
served the country in the field or gar
rison. -
Other countries fall far below that
number. Germany could put in the
field 12,000,000 and Great Britain, ex
clusive of India, about the same num
ber. Of Germany's army, about
5,800,000 would be on a war footing
France could muster about 9,500,000
men, of whom 5,00,000 wonld be
more er less skilled in the use of armr.
In connection with the relative
military strength of France and Ger
many, students assert tnat tne pre
ponderance oi uermany over trance
will grow greater witn tne years un
less conditions materially change.
At this time, Germany has nearly
one million more soldiers than France
and bids fair to have within a fe
years 2.000,000 in excess of its old
time rival.
Statistics for 1899 show that the
THE JOY' OF THE
house is the baby. No matter
how many have come before,
the latest arrival brings joy to
all.-
-When the little one takes
his first glimpse of the world,
he is in, it is a minute of keen
est joy.
.Father is proud, mother is
fond, brother is eager, sisters
are tender, nurse is devote ;
the whole human world is kind.
There is another, an under,
world with enemies in it.
When baby gets into its
shadow, be quick with Scott's

number of births in France was 10,000
less than the average for the last ten
years. The increase for 1899 was bnt
one-fifth of 1 per cent, while Germa
ny a increase was l.lz per cent, or,
taking into ronsideration the popula
tion, six times that 01 trance, no
wonder the figures are causing French
statesmen much concern.
Of course, the militarv establish
meat of the United States Is smsller
than the European. Secretary Root
estimates that the number ot militia
is 110.000. The regular army is
100,000. In case of an emergency
the United States could, however,
call out 10,432.043 men. It is not
too much to say that this large army
would be superior to the army of any
other nation, for the last war has
forced military experts to take into
consideration the mental superiority
of the American soldier a superiority
which makes him the finest in the
world.' .

Headquarters Republican National

Your kind acknowledgment, to

The Coroner's Two Verdicts.
"Inquests are sometimes very funny
affairs," remarked a western man.
remember one In the early days of my
county In Kansas. A man was found
dead by the side of a small stream out
on the prairie. No mark was found
on his well dressed body. Ills gun
was fully loaded in his hip pocket, and
$25 was found In bis pocketbook. Of
course the coroner took charge of the
money. A jury was impaneled and
after finishing its deliberations found
that the man clearly died of heart fail
ure.
The coroner promptly paid from the
dead man's pile the $12 due for ex
penses and discharsed the Jury. The
$13 Remaining bothered him. He ar
gued that to turn that $13 over to the
county, to be held In trust for the
man's possible relatives, would be the
same as throwing it away. The man
was a stranger in those parts. Possi
bly be had no friends. -
The coroner was equal to the occa
sion, however. He declared himself
dissatisfied with the verdict and. call
ed the jury together again. They, sat
on the body 3 second time and found
exactly the same verdict, but the coro
ner's mind was at ease. The $25 was
exhausted." Washington Star.
French Savant Hunt For Microbes.
The microbe hunter frequently makes
himself unpopular, and bis room is gen
erally considered more desirable than
bis company. Such is the case with
an enterprising savant of the French
Academy of Medicine who Is now mi
crobe bunUng in the theaters of Paris.
This. Nimrod, according to the Paris
Messenger, goes Into a theater during a
performance and installs himself in a
box with his assistants and bis appa
ratus. Between the acts the audience
bears a buzzing noise, and for a few
moments there Is considerable commo
tion. The spectators think something
has gone wrong, and the manager of
the theater works himself Into fever
heat. When the savant is satisfied
with his bag, his assistants pack up the
apparatus, and the party leaves the
theater. It is said that when the the
aters have been exploited the churches
will receive attention.

WHAT MODERN SAILORS FEAR
Kot Winds and Seas, bnt an Explo
sion "Which Scuttles the Ship.
"Boiler explosions are the terror of
the Beafaring man," said a old time
deep water captain. "Such a thing is
bad enough on dry land, but Imagine a
catastrophe of that kind at sea. In
ninety-nine cases out of a hundred it
means the absolute wiping out or the
craft itself and every eoul on board.
The average laudsman would be
creatlv shocked In looking over the
maritime records to see how many ves
sels disappear each year and leave
absolutely no clew to their fate. They
run well up to the hundred mark, and
such a mystery is not to be explained
away by storms. A Chinese typhoon
may swoop down like lightning out of
a clear sky and tear a ship to pieces,
but some floating wreckage is sure to
tell the tale. A boiler explosion, on the
contrary, will blow a bole as big as a
railroad tunnel right through the center
of the hull, and the stricken vessel
simply goes down like a shot. There
Is no time to unfasten a boat from the
davits or cut loose a spar.
. "In the opinion of seamen, that Is
the story of at least 90 per cent of the
ships that leave port and are never
heard of again. Luckily the modern
system of marine boiler inspection
Is extremely strict and thorough, but It
Is Impossible to absolutely prevent
carelessness and fraud, and often
enough, no doubt, the fault lies with
the engineer.
"There is an old Ptory of a drunken
Scotchman who. mistook the ther
mometer for the steam gage and 'cuss
ed ouf the 6tokers because be couldn't
get the pressure above 80. That yarn
will hardly hold water, but I've seen
cases almost as bad. I am glad to say,
however, that during the past 10 years
there has been a steady diminution of
the number of vessels which 'mys
teriously disappear.' That is due, be
yond nil question, to the Increased
stringency of boiler Inspection and the
greater Btrictness of examinations be
fore a license Is issued to engineers,
Nevertheless there Is still considerable
room for improvement In both
branches." New Orleans Times-Demo

E B. Munday, a lawver of Henri
etta, Texas, once fooled a grave-dig
ger. He says: "My brother was
very low with malarial fever and
jaundice. I persuaded him to try
Electric Bitters, and he was soon
much better, but continued their use
until he was wholly cured. I am
sure electric Bitters saved his life."

Poison Oali
Poison ivy
are among the best known
of the many dangerous
wild plants and shrubs.
To touch or handle them
quickly produces swelling
and in flatnmation with in
tense itching and burning
of the skin. The eruption
soon disappears, the suf
ferer hopes forever : but
almost as soon as the little blisters and
pustules appeared the poison had reached
the blood, aud will break out at regulat
intervals and each time in a more aggra
vated form. This poison will loiter in the
system for years, and every atom of it
must be forced out of the blood before you
can expect a perfect, permanent cure.
Nature's ADtludc
FOR
Nature's Poisons,
is the only cure for Poison Oak, Poison
Ivy, and all noxious plants. It is com
posed exclusively of roots and herbs. Now
is the time to get the poison out of your
system, as delay makes your condition
worse. Don't experiment longer with
sal ves, washes and soaps they never cure.
Mr. S. M. Marshall, bookkeeper of the Atlanta
(Ga.) Gas Litrht Co.. was ooiaoned with Poison
Oak. He took Sulohur. Arsenic and various
other drugs, and applied externally numerouf
lotions and salves with no benefit. At times the
swelling and inflammation was so sever he wn
almost blind. For eight years the poison would
break otit every season. His condition was much
improved after taking one bottle of S. S. 8., and
a few bottles cleared his blood of the poison, and
all evidences of the disease disappeared.
People are often poisoned without
knowing when or how. Explain your case
fully to our physicians, and they will
cheerfully give such information and ad
vice as you require, without charge, and
we will send at the same time an interest
ing book on Blood and Skin Diseases.
