five or ten years maybe longer doesn't heal because you are not'iisiu the proper treat

is in the Hlooii and lar IkvoiiiI the reach of external applications.
A sore neais promptly when the blood is in k1 condition, but never if it is diseased. The
tendency of these old wires ami ulcers is to ojirw worse, spiralling ami eating deeper into tin flesh.

Their curiosity can now be satitfied, for
his almanac for tho coming year has just
appeared.
Here are the principal predictions to
it:
In Jauuary there will be a formidable
agitation in l'rance auu a severe atiacii
will be made upon the republic.
In Februaiy and March must notab'e
events will take Dlace in the extreme
East, India will threaten to rise up agaiust
the British domination,
Though there will be trouble in va
rious quarters during iho entire year,
April wiil be a comparatively quiet
onth.
In May Inland will follow the exam
pie of India and will rebel against Gng
and.
In June the Anarchists wi'l again
oouie to the front and will give the world
much lo talk about. During the same
uioDth the young KiDg of Spain will be
in danger from his political enemies, and
he is cautioned to guard agaiust them.
July will be a month of catastrophes,
the whole world being threatened at this
time with misfortunes of various kiuds.
Those who are plauuinj to take a jour
ney during this mouth vill do well to re
main at home.
August will be comparatively quiet.
During Septen-bcr India will again
suffer tirribly from famine.
During October the Dervishes will start
an agitation, which may attain formida

Iu November the kingdom ot Holland
wi.l attract attention by its dangeroui
and novel diplomatic policy, aud the
stattsmen iu lie varicus Foreign Offices
will have to exercise all their skill if they
ould avoid a conflict.
In December there v.ill be insurrec
tions, revolts and strikes in various quar
ters of the globe. As a rule they nay
not be of great importance, yet they will
occur at ibis time, and they will be the
suiting features of the month.
As will be seen, "Old Moore s pi
dictions for 11)1)1 are startling, to saj
the least. His statement in regaid to
Holland is especially curious, and many
persons are puzzllug their brains to dis
