C. $500 Reward I WEwtll j Previous to making up country trips in South Africa 1 nlwayi laid inn sup ply of utiico ciressen and ponud packages of tea to serve us presents for the wives of the Boers in the outlying districts. Tea is used by them only in cases of sick ness, and .the donation of a calico dress is always wet by tut interchange of dairy and hen roost products. In one of my trips, while in the neighborhood of an old vrmiw, finding that the larder needed replenishing, 1 jumped on tuy shooting pony and cantered over to her house, followed by my Kaffir henchman “Jan uary," carrying a basket containing the tea and dress. The noise of my pony’s hoofs on tha sunbaked earth caught the old lady’s ears, and she met me at the door with the explanation: ‘Tm so glad yon have come!" "Why?" "Because 1 have a pair of vonng lions for you." “Where are they?" “Knocking about the house some where. I immediately dismounted, handing the reins to Juunury, started indoors, and finally bnraglit up in the kitchen, where I found the wlieljn asleep on the hearth. On asking how they were capt ured she informed mo that some two weeks previous her son had shot lioness, and, finding her in milk, limited around until lie picked np the youngsters. 1 immediately bargained for them with the understanding that they were to be given all the milk the}- would drink, not tensed, mid kept nntil my return, some three months ahead. The tea and dress were then produced, and January had to enlist the services of one of the farm Kaffirs to assist in carrying to the wagons the butter and eggs which were received in exchange. On my return I found the eulis lmd been partially weaued, which was fort nnntc, as it would huvo been impossible to get fresh milk for them daily. Taking them in my arms 1 started toward my cart, which had been driven np in front of the house, for the purpose of throwing them on my lied; hut the oxen 1 Kilted on catching scent of them, and It required a deal of puticuco beforo they would al low them to be loaded. On coining np with my train of wag ons, loaded with untolope, gnns, etc., the cart was prudently kept some distance in the rear, for fear of a stampede of the teams, ami it was fnlly a week before the oxen became thoroughly accustomed to lion odor. The whclpe would pass the timo while traveling lolling about on my bed, which I shared with them at night, bnt ns soon ss we stopped and the oxen were turned louirtor. grazing their heads would he thrust out from the front of the cart waiting to be lifted oat, so that they could have their customary game of romps with the doge and myself. We had reached the more thickly set tled portion of the country when one day, jnat as we were o«i tap* ruling, a couple of young Boera cantered np to the wagons, one of whoftiMf rn a line chactna seated- behind him.' On dis mounting the reins were handed to the baboon, who had seated himself just in front of the horses, and I started for the cart in search of the “square rigger”— 1. e., gin flask—in order to pave the way to purchasing the baboon. On reaching it the heads of both Whelps appeared, expecting to bu lifted out, ns was customary. On catching sight of them the baboon gave a scream, the hofi* a snort or terror, and each one took a’ separate path across the veldt, followed by s pair of blaspheming Boers, I saved my gin, bnt lost the chance,M buying a fine chacma, and sulkily re fused to join in |ho > psqal frolic. do wii iving of ing my bed with me. After having been nearly smothered by a trick which they had of lying across my. (ate, I finally compromised matters by arranging a cot alongside my bed with a stont wire screen intervening. Of course the arrival of tho young lions was soon noised abont, and I did not lack company, especially on Sunday afternoons, when my establishment re sembled a miniature zoological garden, and tho female whelp seemed to select just such occasions to play pranks on the bipeds of her own sex. Her favorito nrnbusb was uuder tho table of tho diningroom, the door of which opened on the passageway through the house. So long as males passed she would remain quiet, hut ns snro as a single female or u party of them at tempted to pass through she would tpriug out and crouch just iu front of them, invariably causing a hasty retro grade movement, accompanied by a se ries of screams. Once, while in the rear, giving some directions to the Kaffirs, I was startled by a piercing shriek, and turned just in time to tee a frightened female dart out of the bock door and come at racing speed toward me. In so doing she had to pais directly npder a ee in which was chained a baboon. So soon as she was fairly under It _ie brute dropped on to her shoulders, whisked oil her bonnet and wrap and was np on his perch in a jiffy. She dropped in a dead faint, and before I could dash some water into her face and bring her to her senses the bonnet and wrap were tom into shreds, and on look ing toward the house 1 save the liead of the lioness lying over tho iloorsiil, seem ingly enjoying tb* mischief sho had wrought.—Forest and Stream.

According to the best writers on' the subject, it has been ascertained that in beginning to sleep the senses do not unitedly fall into a state of sinmber, but dropoff one after the other. The sight ceases, in consequence of the protection of the eyelids, to receive impressions first, while all the other senses preserve their sensibility entire. 'Hie sense of taste is tho nest which loses its suscepti bility to impressions, mid then the souse of smelling. Tho hearing*is next in order, and last of all comes tlie sense of touch. Fur thermore, (lie senses are thought tosleep with different degrees of profonndness. The sense of 'touch sleeps the most lightly- and is the most easily awakened; the next easiest is the hearingl the next is the sight, and the taste and smelling awake the lust. Another remarkable circumstance de serves notice; certain muscle* and jwirts of the bodv ls-rfln to sleep before others. Sleep volume nee* itt the extremities, be ginning with the feet mul leg*, uml creeping toward the center of nervous action. The necessity for keeping the feet warm and perfectly still as a pre liminary of sleep is well known. From these explanation* it will not appear surprising that, with one or more of the senses, and perhaps also one or more parts of the body, imperfectly hsleep, there should l»e at the same time an im perfect kind of meutnl action, which produces the phenomenon of dreaming. —Chambers* Miscellany.* iaaMMM(g a t*taMMIIMIMM BAD BLOOD! piss on the Faoa | Map*' ENGLISH * BLOOD ELIXIR wHY?“«m»aM l “ Senntor Hntnt'i Men la Iluekratn.

All tlie prospectors, except the future senator, were mounted on horses. He was on a retired army mule, and soon found himself left in the rear.
