Cuffs as Postal Cards. Well-Marched cuffs as correspondence cards is one of the latest fad*. A twocent stamp is placed on one side of the cuff and this side is properly addressed. The message is written on the reverse side. As the required postage i* on this rather novel card of course the postal authorities see that it is properly delivered. Sonic ?>f the cuff messages, however, are not sent as novelties. They arc sent in grim *eriousness. One of the inost recent of thi> character was the message sent hy a laundress to a customer. It contained the dates and amounts of the various hills for washing his linen which he had neglected to pay. All sort* and conditions of cuffs are used.

The Secret of their Marvellous Vitality and Nerve Force Jealously Guarded. Women cf the Harem Compound a Potion Whose Rejuvenating Effects are Almost Miraculous and Astonished the Most Skeptical. The fondest hopes of ancient or modern seekers after the Fountain of Perpetual Youth, can scarcely have aimed nigher than the results achieved by the marvellous compound, known throughout the East as EL MOKBIR. Travelers returning to Europe have, from time to time, brought astonishing tales of the rejuvenating effects produced by this Wonder of the Orient. Crudely compounded by the Women of tSo Horom f-nm formulas handed down orally from generation to generation. the secret of this preparation thus jealously guarded and known only to the inmates of the Harem and the Court Physicians. EL MOKBIR has been practically unobtainable, excepting by the favored ones for whom it was intended. Recently, however, a prominent native Aralian Physician, banished from his country for political offense, and deprived of his vast possessions, has availed himself of his knowledge, to earn a livelihood befitting his station, by supplying this marvellous cotnpounL EL MOKBIR, to the nobility and wealthier classes of all Europe, who Lave cheerfully paid him large fees in return for the benefits received . Cor.tent with the large income derive! from this practice, this aged Physician has repeatedly refused very liberal offers made to him for the formula of his Remedy, but he has or-foon ivifh tVio i m nn rtln? house 01 The Noyes Fuller Company, of Philadelphia. to put it up in convcni.nt iorm for sale exclusively in tho United States, and this firm having the exclusive agency, now offers it for the first time to the American public. This Remedy must not be confounded with the numerous nervous exhaustion. lost manhood, and self abuse remedies which a^e advertised under a variety of names, as there is absolutely nothing which scientific chemistry has been able to produce, which can even approach the peerless EL M0K31R, a purely vegetable compound. extracted from rare tropical roots and herbs. EL MOKBIR is a Remedy for one specific purpose, which is to strengthen the vital force and prevent decay in Men. its marvellous effects in arresting decay of the vital principles, especially in the male, being unparalleled an 1 never-failing, and as its use is universal all over the East, where strong, virile men wit'; large families of descendants are the rule, there must be no doubt, either as to its efficiency or benefit to the general system. While it is an absolute specific and positively guaranteed to cure the worst case cf nervous debility, lost manhood, or similar weaknesses due to excesses or youthful errors, it is also J m d with the greatest success as a vitamer, giving power to all weal: pa:'' rn-1 developing an I maintaining the full natural vigor of manhood. !: is put up lor the American trade in tablet form, and though extremely powcit is perfectly harmless and easily taken, one tablet being a dose ami veins tne worst at once, ami su cvidc nrl / as to leave no doubt in the ia:r 1 the paricm*.

Declare That The English Have Violated the Rules of Civilized Warfare. r* i.i nu-- r\ r\ew iotk, opeciai.?wias. u. Pierce, representative in the United States of the Orange Free State, has received a copy of the proposition made by the Boers to the administrative council of the permanent court of arbitration at The Hague. The appeal, which is dated The Hague, September 10, begins by reciting the fact that The Hague convention had provided a way fcr the pacific settlement of international differences whereby the jurisdiction of the permai nent court could be extended to difference between powers which had not become signatories as agreed between the powers which had become and those who had not become signatories. The appeal continues: "Now that this war has gone on gaily three years without any prospects of an end thereto except in the way of the recently acknowledged as being most officious and at the sama time the most equitable means of deciding international differences. "Tha Q-fotoc r.*?nrr cvnt&A hv tho .in. dersigned therefore consider that they should repeal the proposal already made by them before the war but rejected by England to submit to arbitration the settlement of the differences which arise to the war. "In this they particularly have in view the question whether England i3 right in alleging that any act was taken by the republics which had for its object the suppression of the engagc1 ment or its expulsion from South Afrl! ra and generally whether the repub! lies have been made themslve3 guilty ! of any act which according to internaI tionally recognized principles would | give England the right to deprive them 1 of their independence. "The undersigned moreover allego that England already at the outbreak of the war commenced and has ever I continued to act in contravention of ! the rules of war between civilized pow1 ers, and has moreover by proclamation ' issued by Field Marshal Lord Kitche' ner, virtually notified that she intends j shortly to take action in contraventior i or article 20. j "The government: o." the States represented by the undersigned are fully prepared as soon as an opportunity j there shall be afforded then, to subi stantiate the allegations he-ein made i by setting forth and proving the facts ; to which they refer. I "Since England sees fit to deny this I continual violation of the laws of war1 fare, the States represented by the unI dersigned consider that they may also j ask if a decision of the permanent ! court of arbitration is not binding, j They are aware that in order to obtain such a decision that consent of England is required. They, therefore, take the liberty of asking your council to apply for such consent or to obtain the same by your mediation of that of governments represented by you." The appeal is signed by W. J. Leyds, A. Fischer and A. D. W. Wolmarans, plenipotentiaries of the South African Republic, and A. Fischer and C. II.

If the student oi biography will look up the life history of the men who have been the foremost leaders of the world in every branch o." service and kind of endeavor, lie will find, almost invaria- , bly. that they have been men with sound ' bodies and vigorous minds. Among the 1 men of world-wide fame possessing ? superior physique may be meationcd ' Plato, Demosthenes. Charlemagne, Wil- j liam the Conqueror, Martin Luther, j Cromwell. Peter the Great, Samuel Johnson, Goeth. and Bismarck. Walter ' Scott, Robert Burns, and Professor Wil- i son, of Scotland, were distinguished < for their literary achievements. Peel, ' Brougham, Lyndhurst, Campbell, Bright 1 Paimerson and Gladstone, and other J great political and legal leaders of Eng- ^ land, were all men of vigorous ] health and hardy physiques. So were \ the great political and pulpit orators, c like Fox, Burke, and Chalmers, of Eng- t land, and Patrick Henry, Webster, < Charles Sumner, Bcecher, Chapin, ' Brooks. John Hall, and Dwight L. J Moody, of our own country. The great { founders and preservers of the nation, like Washington, Franklin, Presidents ( Jackson and Lincoln, and some of the i chief justices, like John Marshall, Lem- 1 uel Shaw, John B. Gibson, and Samuel F. Miller, were men of powerful bodies ' capable of great physical strength and endurance. Our great financiers, manufacturers, and successful men of affairs, | like Vanderbilt. McCormick. and Hun- ( tington. were of sturdy stock and great t constitutional vigor. So are Morgan. Carnegie, and the present-day leaders in the triumphs of gigantic business enterprises.?Professor Dudley A. Sargent, in Success. 1 1 Killed His Brother. Paris. Tenn.. Special.?Saturday afternoon. near Connersville, Wallace Ward, son of Frank Ward, a promi- i nent plater, killed his brother. Brown Ward. The brothers were working in a hay field when trouble arose over 1 a trivial matter. Wallace made no effort to escape, but endeavored to take his own life with poison. According to the latest report, however, he still lives. The Australian commonwealth's new navy?the first line of defense?will cost $5,000,000 a year to maintain. The practical independence of the new commonwealth is proving a costly luxury at this early stage of its existence.
