The four conquerors who occupy the most conspicuous places in the world’s his- tory are Alexander, Hannibal, Caesar, and Bonaparte. _ ‘ o '0 l ’ A! ‘ ’2‘â€" ”vlouyrw- I. v- Alexander, after having climbed the dizzy height of his ambition, with his temples bound with Chaplets dipped in the blood of millions, looked down on a conquered world, and wept that then was not another world for him to conquer, set a city on fire, and. died in a. scene of debauch. Hannibal. after having, to the consternaâ€" tion of Rome, passed the Alps and having put to flight the armies of the mistress of the world, and stripped “three bushels of gold rings from the fingers of slaughteted knights,” and made her foundations quake, fled fiom his country, being hated by those who ‘ouee exultingly united his name to that of their god. and called him Haunio haul; and died at last by poison adminis- tered by his own hand, unlamented and un- ' went in a foreign land. ‘ ' ‘A‘____ hm D'llquI-au .. v, over thevéogtrbut «men; did not and can! not bring him aid.

Besides these, there was; alon on the 3lst December, 1869, a Reserve A c‘ Militia of 612,467, making a total otiwom 656,008 men and officers.

The Toronto Telegraph, gives the fol lowing horrible fictails of the murder of Thomas Scott, by Riel and his fiendish co-workers in crime, as rented by an eye witness of the murder: ‘ -. i. The brave man had his hands tied he-1 hind him, and when the villains, who had been made drunk, fired upon him, he fell forward upon his face. One f the wretches then ran up to him and fired his revolver into the ear, the ball The Horrible Murder of Scott. passing out at the month. This so stunned Scott, that they thought him to be dead, and placed him in his coflin, and screwed down the lid. The coffin was then carried within the Fort and placed on a bastion. Some three honrs‘ later it was discovered that the unhap- py victim was still alive, and speaking in his coflin ! The lid was then remov ed and a final hall fired through his forehead. In all the records of crime we never heard of a more blood-curdling murder than this. The details are simp ly horrible. A Roman woman in the ancient time} 1 . was not allowed to drink wine except it . were simple raisin wine; and, howeverl she might relish strong drinks, she could i 7 not indulge even by stealth; first, he-l cause she was never entrusted with thei. key of the wine cellar; and secondly,‘t because she was obliged daily to greetl with a kiss all her own as weli as her husband’s male representatives, down even to second cousins; and, as shel§ knew not when or where she might meet% them, she was forced to be wary and1 abstain altogether, for had she tasted the smell would have be. So strict were the old Ro- mans in this respect that a certain Igna. tius Mercurius is said to have slain his wife because he caught her at the wine caskâ€"a punishment that was not deem- ed excessive by Romulus, who absolved D 73‘â€" trayed her.

Most of the old “signs” and prefigur- l iugs with which we are familiar, were i handed down to us by our grandmothers. 1 These signs may thus be pronounced 'ghereditary; but they are only the ex. : l pression of that innate superstition which -3 alone renders a belief in them possible. ”cuâ€"a. ... A concern for omens is quite natural to womankind. It crops out in a hundred ways that we have not room to dwell upon. One can scarcely remember a tithe of the forebodinga which almost any good old granddame will give oracular utterance to in the course of a year. Does she believe them herself? Implieity, often; uncertainly, always And her belief is implicit and vital, or uncertain and doubling, just in propor- tion as she has let superstition over- master phi1030phy and reason. Human nature is not to blame that it contains a superstitious element. But any man or woman is blameworthy who permits this element to usurp worthier ones, and to place the whole being under bonds. Superstition effectually hampers one. There is no real freedom where it holds active away. Believe that you must not start on a journey tomorrow will be Friday, and your opportunity It becomelh us, then, to practicca': careful repression of this superstitious S element in personal character. The 5' same element in social and religious I character has been undergoing repression these many years. Ever since Luther t turned upon the foolish dogmas of the s lclosely individual type, is not so reo.‘ l stricted as yet, but its range is growing E: :narrower. And the purely personal :1 element, it naturally follows, must bell; waning. Notwithstanding its innatcness, it will be more completely smothered and kept down. Things inborn can be crushed out. Superstition, of every ' form, should be subjected to the crush- , ing out process. Every individual, and , I particularly every mother, owes it tel 3' community to suppress, in so far as is . possible, all superstitious feelings. The 2 days of dark things are gone by. Youth 5 should be fed, mentally, upon the sun- 3 light. With the grandmothers of to-day e should depart all the “signs” and fore- gl bodings of a century gone by; for these are but relics of ignorance, and there is > new increase of, knowledge.

This is to certify that during the winter of 1866 I was taken with _a weakness of the ankles, which gradually, during the spring of 1867, extended to my knees, and on up to my hips, and I became so weak that I could not walk, but. was confined to my chair. For abbut two years, while this weakness was coming on me, and after- wards, I sought medical advice, em loying at different tlmes, three doctors, an med-i- i cines of different kinds prescribed by friends, I but of no avail. I continued to get worse l and worse, until the summer of 1908, when , I was induced to try the great Shoshonees l Remedy by reading the curcs performed, in 3 a pamphlet. At this time I had begun to i feel the weakness in my hands ; in fact I was getting almost helpless. I have taken 3 two bottles of the shoshonees Remedy and ,two boxes of the pills, and I am entirely E restored to health. I never expected to f get better, but simply tried the medicine as ml_:_ --_- -1,- ......- a sort of forlorn hepe.
