THE FROGS OF EGYPT.
We are told that, as one of Pharoah's plagues, the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt. Many centuries afterwards that human fro«, the Manchurian, iuvaded Tartary, and his population spread like the spawn of mushrooms. Those who believe that history repeats itself, have seen in Australia a new Tartary, and in tha present China the new Manchurian who will cover Australia. And all these alarmists have now to sing exceedingly small, for the reason that the Chinaman has been proved incapable of war on his own ground, and, therefore, unable even to imagine his invasion of a foreign territory. The reason is not far to seek. The Manchurian and the Tartar who made such stubborn resistances were flesh-eaters ; they rode their horses until they died, and then ate the remains. But the Chinaman i» weak, mainly because of his diet, and his long hereditament of oppression. The treatment of the wonderful machinery of the stomach makes the man, and he who follows the rule of this kind, and is as omnivorous as his teeth prove he should be and no more, must become the highest form of physical and intellectual man. But how many are there who pay due respect to the wonderful machinery given us for maintaining life 1 In Australia, especially, dyspepsia, bladder troubles, kidney and liver complaints, and the awful Brigbt's disease, and rheumatic affections, are frightfully common, primarily and almost entirely owing to ignorance or neglect. We tell you on your honor that Warner's Safe Cure and Pills are the remedies par excellence for the troubles quoted above, and no person should suffer while such sterling medicine, tested by time and result, are at hand to save.
