WORKS OF ART.
Belford, Middlebrook & Co., of Chicago,
are publishing weekly a series of beautiful
portfolios, devoted to the AMERICAN
NAVY AND CUBA. The illustrations
are reproductions of photographs, with
introduction and descriptive texts, showi
ing all the vessels of our navy, the
MAINE, as she majestically rode the
waves before her destruction, and all of
her officers.
CUBA, THE QUEEN OF THIE AN
TILLES, is illustrated in all its phases,
from the captain general’s palace to the
hovels of its starving wretches—shown as
it is today, not as it will appear after
Sampson’s fleet has bombarded it, that
will come later. ,
We have made exclusive arrangements
with the publishers whereby we will ftir
nlsh our subscribers with these beautiful
portfolios, containing 16 reproductions in
each number, at 10 cents for each series.
The regular subscription price is 50 cento,
and those wishing them, who are not sub
scribers to our paper, can secure them at
Uj&tpnce. And they are well worth 50
cento.
We have samples of these beautiful
works of art and history in our office
which we would be glad to show you and
take your subscription for the entire series
or as many parts as you wish.

•waggerod about among the pack and ex-
cidal, or rather canlcidal, proclivities,,l
tied the dead dog round hto nook. This,
however, he evidently viewed as an exceb

the arctic, where the food supply to defect

lunch of his late adversary, looking wp at
me with grateful ey a. evidently thinking
that it was vary ec > siderate of Jackson
thus to provide him v. itb a larder right at

moved, and Carlo was always decorated
with a muzsle. I afterward made a good
sledge dog of him, but ho could not stand
the Severe climate, and, although the doc
tor made a blanket coqt for him, the poor
old chap died sledging during the first
fortnight in spite ot it
The rest of the pack were hardly leas
bellicose, but conducted their battles on
lines hardly in accordance with civilized
warfare. With the exception of two or
three dogs, I always had the entire pack
chained up, having taken out a large sup
ply of English chains, but I found these
quite inadequate to restrain these compar
atively small dogs. One dog would break
loose and then commence a fight with an
other. The whole'pack would become
wildly excited, and one chain after another
would snap, and all would then fall upon
the losing combatant. The result would
be another dead dog.— Geographical Jour

advertised for these diseases, and got no

the disease assuming a more severe and
