Newspaper Page TextThe canine Craze. Of al! Ih, 1 . valuable dogs the mastiff is ooiifiidi red foremost. Possessed of jthe highest courage, it is also equally docile ami companionable, and, though f“5 it grows to an immense size, when well ; taped it will not, evtn on proyooatlOD, hurt a child or small deg, and is inclined to be friendly with large dogs. Circum stances, however, might alter the case With regard to the latter. There is no more reliable dog for watching, where reason is considered, for, though fcrcible in its artack upon a marauder its vio lence is apt ni on having conquered the enemy, h the latter remains quiet aud submissive—the mastiff beeping guard until assistance arrives. Crossed with the New ij’oundlond or blood-hound they are fine watchdogs, butincliiei to be more aggressive and savage without provocation than the straight bred, The true bull dog is rare, compara tively speaking. This brute is sa d to have a smaller brain and consequent ly les3 intelligence than the average dog; still, some valuable specimens have been known to exhibit rare understanding, and certainly show greater ontward af fection than many dogR of a less savage and generally more affectionate nature. The tenacity of the bull dog, onoe its hold is Becure, is really remarkat le, and it would seem impossible to make him lose his grip without seriously injuring nun. To choke him off is the only way, but even that is oiten a difficult performance. A well bled buli dog is remarkably neat aud clean cut in ap- pcaiance, and is not of such a savage nature as many suppose. He makes, probably, next to the mastiff, the best watch uog. The pure breed is, how ever, c-n the wane, which, considering their value in guarding property, is surprising. There is a geutlemau in this country who breeds them, and is now the possessor of thirty, but he is probably the exception. The bull tenier is more common, and partakes largely of the true qualities of the bull nog, but of a slighter build. XLo popular color sit ms to be briudle, anil by si me a shoi t nose is preferred, but in bench shows white with loog nose is the btandaid. The tkye terrier is not cur popular iu this country, al though admirers are not w’i ntiDg, it being superseded by the Yorkshire, which lias a better oout ot hair, weigh ing from live to twenty pounds, and makes a smart lit tie wuiclidog amt rat ter. The Siberian blood-hound, or Dim cleg, though possessing somegoodquai- llies, is Lot a tavoiite on account 01 its ferocious nature. They are not favor ites with the spo't.meu or with the people, although the Germans, whose companions they are mos.ly, think a good dial ot them. The stag hound is a noble type ol a dig. The true Eng lish breed, nowever, is rarely seen m this counuy, it being lor some unac countable leason dying out-. Yet this is the uog wlitcu cel'ghted and became tne companion of Sir Walter Scott,who aid honor to it in inn: y a verse; aud in uur times this was the favorite hound of the late General Custer, accompany ing him on many i xcursicus over the vast plains and ilnougli the Western loiests, where eventually that gallant ofiictrmst his sad fate. The English giey hound is noticeably mure absent in this part of the counuy, but it is a la- vonte m California and on the Eaciii e slope. The most common of the larger dogs m this country is the noble New Eounu- iund; common because of its adapta bility to uifierent situations, be it the lariu>a:d or household, auu also be cause ot its initlhgenee and faithful ness. Muck might be said of the wis dom, foiethcugkt and patience of these animals under the most trying circum stances, and ot the alertness and intel ligence of the hound, setter* pointer, spaniel, lox-Pound, lox terrier and other valuable ooge, equally useful in ikeir various fields. The fat. ifomurd, as a large bred dog, is, in the minds ot good judges, next to the pure Ei gifoli mastiff in docility ot ttmpcr, ai d is, m some respects, more intelligent, yet lacking the noble com binations 01 lire latter. It reaimiies the lnasliH in head and boay, iiavi g longer hair, however, which Vanes bo.h as to length and color. Of ike pet dogs in great demand, aLd cl which iheie are but lew, compara tively speaking, in this country, are fhe Ku-g nkarlis spaniel and the EughBk pug. The King Chailes is even rarer than the latter and is a toy deg. The Blenheim spaniel is a trifle smaller, but is not by any means considered .so hanusume. Black and tan are the two colors ol lhe llioiougkbred. The pug tanks foremost as a pet nog, especially in New Yolk, although Boston is' not lar behind in i s demand. These gent.e dogs are most kkeu f. om the fact that liuy tieter bite, aud may be trusted wild an ihiaiit, adding to this great quality a mist playlui and affectionate disposition. Tney weigh from ten'to twenty-hve pounds, aie of fawn color, with black mask, which if dually de fined aud accompanied by the warts, wrinkles and other shadings peculiar te it, adds, to its Vulue. If,there aie oily,one or two puppies, or even tkxee, they can be reared at home, especially it iu the country. If in the ei y, n is advisable to have them sent where they may have plenty ot space, pure air and suushine, which are so conuucive to and necessary tor their health. Wnctker hoarding out or reared at hone, the same kina of fooa is re- qniud, and should Le g.ven legularly, bom as legarus lime and quantl y.

When about lour months old the puppies may be ted like adults, but with judgment as to me Ort au ana the quantity given.

Harem Bemutv- A Lawyer's Kemoval. “Say you all—come here, quick!” “What's up?” “Funl Hue's a lawyer going to move!” The boy was correct. A lawyer was changing bis office. Some men who bad never teen a lawyer remove gath ered around with Jke boys to watch proceedings. An old man with a lame back and a woman Wind in one eye constituted the force. They first brought down a table, inkstand, scratched, cut and one leg broken. A second-hand man re marked that it might be worth thirty The wife of Minister Wallace of for - stantimple gives the following account! of a vis -t to the Sultan’s palace. A btoad low divan of pale blue silk tan round the apartment. No pictures on the marble walls, no books, no bric- a-bac, no ‘'trumpery” collections, cera mics, aesthetic trash, grave or gay, nor muffling hangings. These are not Ori ental luxuries, but instead a cool, shady emptiness, plenty of space for the breeze to flutter the gauzy curtains, and carry the echo of the plash and drip of the fountains. At the furthest end, and reclining on pillows, of silk and lace, rested the lady we sought. One little foot in a red vel vet slipper was first setn below white trousers of yellow silk; a loose robe of white silk, embroide:ed with gold thread, was perfectly covered by sleeveless jacket of crimson dotted with seed pearl; a broad variegated sash wouud the slender waist. Half con cealing the arms was a light scarf, airy as the woven wind of the ancients. A headband, with diamond pendants, fringed her forehead, a reviere of dia monds circled the bare throat, and here and there solitary drops flashed in the braids of her night-black hair. Among the billowy cushions and vaporous veil ings rose the young face—oh, what a revelation of beauty—uplifted in a cu rious questioning way, to see what manner of women these are, who come from the ends of the earth, with unveil ed laces, and go about the world alone, and have to think for themselves—poor things. The expression was that of a lovely child waking from summer slum ber in the happiest humor, ready for play. A sensitive, exquisite face, fair as the first of women while the angel was yet unfallen. A perfect oval, the lips a scarlet thread, and oh, those won derful Asiatic cyesl—lustrous, coal- black, long rather round, beaming under the joined eyebrows of which the poet Hafiz sings. Nourmahal did not rise, but held out one jeweled hand, dimpled as a baby’s, with nails and finger ends dyed pink with henna—five clustered rosebuds. The mag e of beauty made up her sub jects. AYe kissed the little lingers loy ally; and yielded ourselves willing cap tives ready to be dragged at the chariot wheels. My life-long notions of the suDjection of women (see Stuart Mill) and the wretchedness of prisoners pining in palatial splendors vanished at the first glance—went down at a touch, like the wounded knight in the lists of Templestowe. She smiled and hoped we were well; then followed suitable inquiries as to health and journeys, and expressions of the charm of finding it all out. I ventured the high assertion that we had sailed 6,000 miles to lay our homage at her blessed feet; which rhe torical flourish was received with a childish noil at about what it was worth. Somehow she did seem so en chanted with her new worshipers as they were with her. It seemed the Beauty had never seen the sea except from the shore. At the signal the slaves disappeared, except one old woman and^the negroes, silent as ghosts beside the Lahore dra pery. In a few minutes five slaves returned, each carrying a small round table of cedar, inlaid with scraps of mother-of-pearl. Five others followed with lighted cigarettes, lying each in a silver saucer; and coffee iu tiny cups, about the size of a giant’s thimble, rest ing in a silver filagree holder, set round with diamonds. “My new friends have come so far,” said Nourmahal, “they must be tired. Take a cigarette and refresh your selves.” 1 rather awkardly adjusted the holder of amber and ventured one faint whiff. Imagine my astonishment at seeing my friend, whose uamc with difficulty I suppress, puff away like a dissipated old smoker. The Armenian was nauve and to the manner born. Nourmahal smoked, of course, and a lulling calm succeeded the excitement of the bril liant conversation reported above. AVhile feeling around my brain for a subject of common interest, adapted to my hostess’ capacity and mine, 1 tried a sip of the coffee. It was strong enough to bear up a egg, thick with grounds and bitter as death. I pretended to deep enjoyment of the dose, and sipped it drop by drop, to the bitter end. Nourmahal clapped her hands again and the ten virgins took away the sau cers. I think none of them were fool ish, for they fell into line without effort, each one treading in the footsteps of her predecessor, at au interval to avoid her train. “In this charming palace you must be very happy. How do you pass the timet” The dimples deepened in the cheeks of Beauty. “Pass the time, pass the time?” she dreamily repeated, playing with the knotted fringes of her scarf. “I do not pass it, it passes itself!” and again she laughed, and the laughter was as sweet as the tenderest voice can make it. “Are you fond of musie?” Three ladies in black: “Oh! very.” “Oh! very. “Oh! very.” • “Then you should be amused.” She clapped the rose-leaf palms, and in marched eight women musicians •{ we saw no men that day but the harem guard), bearing stiinged instruments, curious-looking things, like overgrown violins and half finished guitars, and a round shell, with strings across, beaten with two sticks. Didst ever hear Arabic music beloved? No? Then never hast thou known sor row. Since Jubal first struck the gamut, there can be no improvement in these compositions. How long the exercises lasted I am unable to record, but I do know we grew old fast under the beat, beat, hammer, hammer, in the terse, unmeaning notes of the banjo. In the bright interval at the end of a peculiarly agonizing strain, sung by a mulatto, I seized the moment to ask what were the words of the song, and was told it is a serenade, very ancient, dating back to the times of ignorance, before the coming of Mahomet, whose tomb is covered with the splehdor of unceasing light. AGRICULTURE. V ektilatino Stables. — Too often when the farmer makes the stable worm be excludes light. Is it any wonder that so many horses have defective eye sight or else ore partially blind? Tbey ard kept in dar^, stables and then brought ont to endure the sunlight re flected from snow or the dust of long atretohe; of dry roads. The eye is a very sensitive organ,and no animal,man not excepted, has a more sensitive eye than the horse. It soon adapts itself to surrounding conditions.and if the horse is kept in a dark apartment the eye will scon be in no condition to stand the rough usage of work in the sunlight or dust. More than this, existing in the dark affects the general health of the body injuriously. Plants grow pale and soon cease to grow when kept in the dark, but they regain their fresh ness and vigor when brought into the sunlight. Human beings dwelling iu dark bouses are pale aud sickly, those whose occupations brmgs them mnon into the snn and whose houses are well lighted are rosy aud healthy. It is the same with the lower animals. If con fined in darkened quarters their health suffers. The stable for horses must be tight that it may be warm, but that is no reason why it should be as dark as a dungeon. Instead of clcs ng the win dows with boards through which no fight cau enter, let a few panel of glass be put in the openings. They will cuet bnt very little and will not only admit the light of the snn but its warmth also. But in the effort to moke horse stables tight ventilation is forgotten. There ninst be no cracks and holes to admit cold draughts, it is true. But there should be ample opportunities for foul air to escape and pure to enter. When confined the air of stables soon becomes tool. It circulates over manure, solid and liquid, aud the lungs and pores of the animals are continually throwing off effluvia to contaminate it. Breathing this fonl air is as unwholesome for horses as tor man. The way to provide lor its escape aud for its replacing by pure air is to bave lattice-work cupolas ou the roof. This foul air is always heated air, and being heated air, is al ways lighter, and will rise and pass out above, while the colder, porer and heavier air will rush m and take its place. Jn conclusion the horse-stable should be worm, light and ventilated— a tight apartment, with glass in the windows and lattice-work cupolas ;on ih roof. Chbistmas pudding — Stir three- quarters of a cup of batter and the yi lk of four egga together. Add one cup of molasses and two caps of warm milk, with two teaapoonfula of sods dissolved in a teaspoonful of boiling water, and add to the milk. Season with a teaspoonfnl of cinnamon, half a teaspoonful of cloves, a little nutmeg and salt. Add door to make it as stiff as pound cake,and lastly two pounds of raisins stoned and chopped fine, one- quarter of a pound of citron, and the whites of four eggs, beaten to a still froth. Tie in a floured bag, leaving room for the padding to swell, and steam six hours. Serve with a wine sauce. A New Yore farmer, who has been testing Holstems as milkers, states that in a herd of twelve the highest yield was twenty ponnds and the lowest four teen ponnils of butter. The daily yield ot five of them was over three pounds for the highest and two and a half ponnds for the [owest. He thinks the Holstems can be made to rival the Jerseys in production of butter, while for milk, butter and beef combined,they are superior to all other breeds. The sorghum works at Champaigu estimate npon large yields of sugar equal to that from Cuba. An important saving in fuel has been effected by burn ing the begasse. In feeding swine with the reiuse a lot of twenty hogB, that had been kepton grass during sum mer, were.allowed nothing but seed and skimnungs. They gained five pounds each per day for three weeks. The seed is said to fnrnish nearly the same food elements as corn, while the skimmings ara rich in nitrogen. European horticulturists have lately adopted a mode of making root cuttings root with more certainty by bending the shoots and inserting both ends into the ground, leaving a single bad uncov ered at the middle and on the surface of the ground. The cuttingB are abont ten inches long, aud are bent over a stick laid flat on the ground, holes be ing dng on each side of the stick, for the reception of the ends of the shoot. The roots form only at the lower end of the shoot, bnt the other end being bur ied prevents evaporation. Asa protection to plum trees against the attacks of the curcnlio it is sugges ted that the trees be inclosed ana the orchards devoted to poultry. Mr.' Haw kins, of Lancaster, Mass , the largest poultry breeder in the world, plants plum trees lor shade almost exclusively and finds the method very successful against curcnlio, as the fowls destroy the insects as fast as'they emerge from the ground, where they matnre after the injured fruit has dropped. By com bining plum growing and poultry upon the same location the profit from a single acre of ground can be made very large, Broiled kidney*.—Mix together in a deep plate the, following ingrdients, which will cost about 3 cents; One ounoe of butter, half a level teaspoon ful of pepper, one teaspoonfnl each of mustard, and any table sauce or vine gar, and as much cayenne as yon can take np on the point of a small pen knife blade; toast half a loaf of stale bread, (cost 3 oents) ont in slices one inch thick; wash, split, and broil one pound of pigs’ or sheeps kidneys, (oost 10 cents or less;) while the kidneys are broiling dip the toast in the first named seasonings, lay it on a hot dish, and lay the kidneys on it as soon as tbey are broiled; season them With salt and pepper, and serve hot with one quart of plain boiled potatoes, (cost 3 cents.) The cost of the entire dinner will be less than 20 cents. Boiling pish.—After washing ibor- onghly in salted cold water, sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper, and tie in a clean cloth with a sprig of parsley. Cover with cold water, except in case of salmon, when luke-worm water must be used to preserve the color. Cod re quires fifteen minutes for each pound. A fish weighing one pound will be done in ten minutes after the water begins to boil Drawn bntter sauce, with a hard- boiled egg chopped fine and stirrt d m at the last, is very nice for bass. Oys ter sauce is the best for cod. Pickled apples.—Take sweet apples fully ripe, core and quarter them. Take two quarts of vinegar, two pounds of sugar, one-half ounce of mace, one of clovea and one of cinnamon, with a spoonful of allspice. (These spices should not be ground.) Let it boil to gether ten minutes. Then put in enough of the apples to cover the sirup and let them boil until clear. Skim them and lay on a plattet; pnt fresh to cook until you have as many as your sirup will cover when placed in a jar. These, after a few days, sometimes need to be brought again to the boiling point, and then will keep any length of time. The Fate Which Overtook the “Tlty ot Boston,”—laptais Marrmy’s Ideas and Experiences. A few years ago; the ttfy of notion sailed from harbor, crowded with an ex pectant throng of passengers bound for a foreign there. ' the never entered poet. The mystery of her untimely end grows deeper as the yean increase, and the At lantic voyager,when the fierce winds howl around and danger is imminent on every band, shudders as the name and mysterious fate of that magnificent vessel are alluded to. To perfume note paper.—To per fume note paper get a few quires of blotting paper aud sprinkle the sheets with the perfume desired, then pnt them under a weight until they become dry. When dry put note paper, en velopes, etc., between the sheets and place them under a weight for a few hours; when removed they will be found perfumed. The blotting - beets may be ntilized again, and cau be made to retain their perfume for a long time by keeping them free from ex posure to air. Laundry hints.—It is not a good plan to have the white lawn aud mon- brio dresses “done np,” as the phrate is, to lay away for the winter, for the expectation that they will lxik fresh and be ready for immediate wear in the spring will be disappointed. Of course, they should not be pnt away dirty, but the starching and ironing may well be left till spring; only com mon calicoes should be starched and ironed before packing away.” To PICKLE MEAT in one dat.— Take a tub of rain or river water and put two pieces of thin wood across it and set the beef on them, distant about an inch from the water; heap as much salt as will Btand on your beef, nod let it remain twenty-four hours; then take off and boil the water having drawn the salt completely through the mc.it. Thebe is so much difference in cel lars, that while some will keep fruit well, in others a large proportion of the frnit will decay before winter is half over. Frnit to keep well should be kept in a cool place, where the temperature is very even. To attempt to keep fruit where one day the temperature is 30 degrees and the next 60 degrees is to in vite a failure. For this reason the fruit should never be kept in the open where the snn will shine on the barrels; in tact, to have frnit keep well it should not le disturbed alter being gathered and stored away until wanted for use or sale. Good doughnuts.—Seven coffee-cup - fuls of light bread dough—it should be sponged with milk. Into it mix one and one-half cupfuls of melted shoiteu- irg, one of sugar and a teaspooutul of saleratus. When this has again be come light, roll it out—not too tnick— out into small squares. Dr any shape you please, and oook in boiling fat. Grandmother’s minute pudding.— Let some sweet milk come lo a boil, then stir in flour which you have salted; this must be done very briskly or it will be lnmpy. Stir every moment un til the pudding is abont like mush. Serve while hot, with sugar and cream; flavor the cream with nutmeg or vanilla. When you find a dairyman who pro nounces winter dairying a failure the chances are that yon have found one who does not make the greatest success of any kind of dairying. Any one with any skill at all should be ab e to make winter dairying pay and pay well, when its products sell at about double the price for which thqy sell in the summer, while it costa but little more to cany the cows through the winter in milk than dry. While there ia some inoon- venience abont dairy work in the win ter there are many very serious hin drances to summer dairying,such as hoi weather, flies, etp,, which are avoided. Pbuhe pudding.—Prunes, the friend in need of the boarding-honse landlady, make a very good pudding. Stew a pound until they are soft, remove the stonee and add the whipped whites of three eggs, beating them together un til they are thoroughly mixed. Pour into a dish lined with puff-paste and bake half an hour. A vest nice nun cake.—One pound of stigar, half a pound of butter, four egga, one teacup of sweet milk, three and a half cups of flour, one teaspoon of saleratna, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves, and as many raisins as you oan afford. A|Mextc*a rynmld. The pyramid of Cheops is dwarfed by that near Magdalena. Mexico. It has a base of 1,850 feet, and is 750 feet high. There is a winding roadway from the bottom leading up on an easy grade to the top wide enough for carriages to pass over, said to be twenty-three miles in length. The outer walls of the road way are laid in solid masonry, huge blocks of granite in rubble work, and the circles are as uniform and the grade as regular as theyj:ottld be made at this date by our best engineers. The wall is only occasionally exposed, being cov eted with debris and eaith, and in many places the sahuaro and other indigenous , plants and trees bave grown up, giving j be pyramid the appearance of a moun- On very cold, damp nights the fowls should be given a good leed of whole com before they go {o roost, as it is more promotive of beat than any other kind of food that ia usually fed. It is also advisable to change to wheat occa sionally, for the sake of variety. Tickling in thn throat.—For a cough or tickling in the throat, take the juice ol two lemons, the beaten white of one egg, enough powdered or granulated sugar to make a thick paste. A teaspoonful of this mixture will al lay the irritation and cure a cough in its early stages. A simple and effective dust ring for watches has recently been patented by a resident ot Kingslaud, England. The ring, which is of peculiar form, isfitted in the case before the movement and secured by screws, after which the movement is fitted to the ring. The ring does not afterward require to be removed, the movement alone being taken out for cleaning, leaving the ring permanently fixed in the case. Purpose is the edge aud point of character; it is the superstition on the letter of talent. Character, without it, is blunt and torpid. To mnm xooa.—A pound of lime and one rant of salt to three gallons of water. .Put all egga not wanted for daily nee into this brine, aud tbey will keep all the year round, and the whites froth almost as well as fresh e«s.

After the uiD superiority of moral ot Monday school boys on .ns cdatoaki Our reporter, on a recent visit to New fork, took lunch with Captain George Siddons Murray, on board the Alaska, of the Guton line. Captain Murray is a man of stalwart build, well-knit frame and cheery, genial disposition. He has been a constant voyager for a quarter ol a cen tury. over half of that time having been in the trans-Atlantic service, in the course of the conversation over the well-spread table, the mystery of the City ot Boston was alluded to. “Tea,” remarked the Captain, “I shall never forget the last night we saw that ill- fa'ed vessel. I was chief officer of the City of Antwerp. Oa the day we sighted the City of Boston a furious southeast hurricane set id. Doth vessels labored hard. The sea teemed determined to sweep away every vestige of life. When day ended the gale did not abate, and every thing was lashed for a night of unusual fury. Our good ship was turned to the south to avoid the possibility of ice-bergs. The City of Boston, however, undoubted ly went to the north. Her boats, life-pre servers and rafts were all securely lashed; and when she went down, everything went with her, never to re-appear until the sea gives up its dead.” “What, in your opinion. Captain, was the cava: of the loss of the City of Bos tons ' “The Cdy of Limerick, in almost pre cisely the same latitude, a few days later, found the sea full of floating ice; and I have no doubt the City of Boston collided with the ice, and sunk immediately.” Captain Murray has been in command of the Alaska ever since she was put in commission and feels Justly proud of his noble ship. She comes thousands of pas sengers every year, and has greatly popu larized the Williams tk Guion line; Re marking upon the bronzed and healthy ap pearance of the captain, the reporter said that sea life did not seem to he a verygrea physical trial. “No ? But a person’s appearance is not always a trustworthy indication ot Ms physical condition. For seven years 1 have been in many respects very much out of sorts with myself. At certain times I was so lame that it was difficult for me to move around. I could scarcely straighten up. I did not know what the trouble was, and though I performed all my duties regularly and satisfactorily, yet I felt that I might some day be overtaken with some serious prostrating disorder. These troubles increased. 1 felt dull and then, again, shooting puns through my arms and limbs. Foesibly the next day I would feel flushed and unaccountably un easy and the day following chilly and des pondent. This continued until last De cember, when I was prostrated soon after leaving Queenstown, and for the remain der of the voyage was a helpless, pitiful sufferer. In January last, a friend who made that voyage with me, wrote me a letter urging me to try a new course of treatment. I gladly accepted his counsel, and for the last seven months have given thorough and business-like attention to the recovery of my natural health; and to-day, 1 have the proud satisfaction of saying to you that the lame back, the strange feel ings, the sciatic rheumatism which have so long pursued me, have entirely disap peared through the blood purifying influ ence of Warner’s Safe Rheumatic Cure which entirely eradicated all rheumatic poison from my system. Indeed, to me, it seems that it has worked wonders and I therefore most cordially commend it.” “And you have no trouble new In ex posing yourself to the winds of the Atlan tic!” “Not the least I am as sound as a bul let and I feel specially thankful over the fact because i believe rheumatic and kid ney disease is in the blood of my family. I was dreadfully shocked on my last arri val in Liverpool to learn that my brother, who Is a wealthy China tea merchant, had suddenly died of Bright’s disease of the kidneys, and oonader myself extremely fortunate In having taken my trofible in fame and before any more serious effects were posable.” The conversation drifted to other topics; and as the wnter watched the face before him, se strong In all its outlines and yet so genial, aud thought of the innumerable ex posures and hardships to which its owner had been exposed, be instinctively wished all who are suffering from the terribe rheu matic troubles now so common might know of Captain Murray’s experience and the means by which he bad been restored. Fain is a common thing in this world, bnt far too many endure it when they' might just as well avoid it. It is a false philoso phy which teaches us to endure when we can just as readily avoid. So thought the hearty captain ol the Alaska, so thinks the writer and so should all others think who desire happiness and a long life. A German farmer was on trial iu cne of the justice courts the other day for assault and battery, anl had pleaded not guilty, when the cross-examina tion came the opposing counsel asked: Now, Jacob, there was trouble be tween you and the plaintiff, wasn’t there?"

I will write you with a double purpose, first to thank you for the great amount of good 'your medicine. Bunt’s Bemody, baa done me, and Secondly, with the hope that my recov ery will induce some sufferer to do as I did, “use the great specific and be cured.” For nearly a whole year f was an invalid, un able to go out of the house, and a great part of the time confined to my bed, a living, powerless subject of the most dreadful of all diseases—kidney complaint. From the long suffering I became weak from the loss of strength, with a lack of vitality, and very much reduced in flesh. All this time I was taking various medicines, and under the care of opr family doctor, and not re ceiving a {article of help. I had almost de spaired ol getting well when my attention was called to Hunt’s Jtemdey by a boarder in my family. I commenced taking it (un known to the doctor) with but little hopes of relief. This non-belief was soon expelled, however, as I daily began to improve. I continued the use of Hunt’s Remedy (and to make a long story short) used eight bot tles, dispensed with the doctor, and to the surprise ot all who knew me, and *ny owu great satisfaction, became as well as ever.
