His Manner of Gait.
Would you read a man’s thoughts?
Observe his gait; study his walk. A
famous philosopher approached by a per
son whom lie had never met before,
shouted out: “Speak, that I may see
you.” It was through the voice only
that the beauty of a person could lie seen
by him.* If he had desired to form an
accurate estimato of the mind he would
no doubt have cried: “Walk, that I may
judge of you.” A man may conceal his
true character by his tongue—he may be
able to make it wag in a way which will
deceive, but his legs will betray him. A
thief can no more walk like an honest
man than a camel can go through the
eye of a needle; a melancholy
man cannot possibly put on the
gait of the soldier, and Caliban
never walked like Ariel. There is
fine walking which indicates self posses
sion; uprightness walks with ease and
freedom; the student has the slow and
musing pace; the tradesman the quick,
nervous movement, while the laborer has
the hard and heavy tread. A keen ob
server once remarked that duplicity al
ways skulks; so it does. In like man
ner, the thief invariably sneaks; shame
has a sidelong carriage, but honesty puts
its feet into Excelsior’s boots and
marches to an “onward” measure.
You will have no difficulty in picking
out the student. Who has not, while
strolling in tlie public garden or walking
along some of the few thoroughfares not
yet blocked by commerce, noticed the
man with arms behind and eyes fastened
fixedly before him, neither looking to the
right nor to the left, but with slow and
steady step passing silently onward? Per
haps you ask yourself, “What can that
man be out for; he neither sees nor hears
anything that is happening around him;
what good does a walk do him?”
The student’s air, his gait, his every
action will indicate that he is thinking—
that there is something he is endeavoring
to grasp; he walks like a man seeking a
pearl which he feels lie will certainly
sooner or later find. He has a confident
gait. Note the air of him who is troubled.
Restless nature—quick, nervous step; not
attempting to seek anything; not striving
to note the beauties of the universe of
God, or the handiwork of man, but on
the contrary endeavoring to shake off
some dreaded monster which appears to
follow him; a hidden power which seems
to speak to him as to that other wanderer,
bidding him “move on,’’and he walks
hurriedly, seeing nothing, hearing
nothing. Ho is oppressed by a horrible
n iglitmare whose name is sorrow. Sorrow
and stillness in such a case are synon
ymous terms, and exercise is the only
antidote.
It is the easiest thing in the world to
note that a man is in trouble by his gait;
indeed, he betrays it to that extent that
•logs have been known to bark at such
persons, as if divining that they were at
war with mankind. If a man is vexed
ho walks to get over his madness, and if
you observe him sharply you will notice
that, not having the object of his anger
to kick, he viciously kicks up the gravel
or tries to chip off pieces of the pave
ment with his boots.
flow can you tell a wicked man? The
wicked flee when no man pursueth. If
a man has done anything for which his
conscience accuses him, his impulse is to
fly, to get away from the scene of his
crime and to put space between himself
and that still, small voice. Ho will be
in a hurry, and there will be neither po
etry nor harmony in his step. After men
quit this earth they are sometimes forced
to walk, in order to expiate some of their
offenses.—D, J. McGrath in Boston Globe.
At Undo Sara’s Sob-Treasury.
There are other advantages derived
from the sub-treasury. Bills become
worn and unfit for service, and these, in
amounts of $500, will be taken at the de
positories and fresh, new bills be given in
exchange. Then, too, coin i3 being called
in at certain times to give place to later
coinage. The silver dollars in circulation
before the Bland bill of 1878, commonly
known as “the dollars'of our daddies,”
and appearing on the assistant treasurer’s
report as “dads,” have been called in.
Twenty-cent coins and fractional cur
rency have been called in by the depart
ment. These coins or currency when re
ceived at any of the sub-treasuries are
held until an amount of sufficient worth
is received, when it is shipped to Wash
ington, the silver being recoined and the
currency destroyed.
The reporter asked Assistant Treasurer
Shultz regarding counterfeit money and
as to whether it was ever received in his
office. He replied that it was seldom
any counterfeits were received, as the
principal part of their business was trans
acted through banks, and it is rarely the
case that a bad bid or a spurious
coin passes the vigilant eyes of the
tellers. When bills or coins are
received the money passes through
the hands of his chief teller or
his assistant, and they are each experts
in detecting counterfeits. A bill passing
through their hands and having the
slightest appearance of being spurious is
closely examined and then it becomes
apparent at once that some outside party
is trading upon the good name and credit
of Uncle Sam. None of the counterfeits
are perfect. In bills there is a deficiency
in the size or a poor job of engraving on
the vignette, a difference in the thickness
of the paper, a something which is at
once apparent to the experts and it is at
once thrown aside. An iron stamp, bear
ing the word “counterfeit,” in raised
letters, is then heated in a gas jet, and
the word fumed into the bill so that it
can never be defaced. This is then given
back the owner—as though that were
any consolation. A silver piece found to
be spurious is cut in two and the pieces
returned. An average of probably three
or four bills comes into the sub-treasury
in the course of a month and are thus
treated.—St. Louis Republic.
A List of Health Suggestions.
The hot pastry and iced drinks of this
country have much to do with the thin
ness of its people.
Disordered digestion in adults is often
the outcome of being compelled or in
duced to eat rich food in childhood.
Up to middle life most people are care
less regarding their physical condition,
hence persons who ought to live long
lives have their days curtailed. The
time to pay strict attention to the bodily
health is during the vigorous portion of
life.
It is quite a common practise to dose
infants with teas, oils and sweetened
waters when any real or imaginary ill is
upon them. In some cases it is necessary
to re-enforce the natural supply of nour
ishment, but where possible, nature’s
fount should be relied on chiefly.
For those who hurry to and from their
meals soup is recommended as a prepara
tory agent for the reception t>f solid food.
For a man to hurriedly rush to his meals
mid gulp down meat, vegetables mid pie,
without a short pause of rest for the
stomach, is nearly akin to suicide.
Toasting bread destroys the yeast germs
and converts the starch into a soluble
substance which is incapable of ferrnen-
fation. Dry toast will not sour the
stomach nor produce any discomfort, and
is, therefore, more agreeable to a weak
digestion than any other bread.
A stooping position, maintained for
any length of time, tends more to under
mine the health than is supposed. An
erect position should be observed, whether
sitting, standing or lying. To sit with
the body leaning forward on the stom
ach or to one side, with the heels ele
vated on a level with the hands, is not
only in bad taste, but exceedingly detri
mental to health; it cramps the stomach,
presses the vital organs, interrupts the
free motion of the chest and enfeebles
the functions of the abdominal and tho
racic organs, and, in fact, unbalances the
whole muscular svstem.—Household.
Delights of the Alhambra.
Granada during the hot weather was
very delightful indeed. Everybody knows
the delights of the Alhambra, and, as the
best part of the town stands high, it was
comparatively cool. We had rooms in
one of its towers, bringing a couple of
our own servants with us, and when we
did not feel inclined to have cooking done
at home, could go to the hotels close by,
which were always crowded at that sea
son and very amusing by reason of the
mixture of nationalities to be met there.
In this enchanted city’, dirty though it be,
you might persuade yourself easily
enough that you had left behind the bustle
and toil and confusion of the present;
time moves so gently that a hundred years
more or less does not seem to matter
much—there is a quiet retrospective air
about things which is eminently soothing,
and on the breezy heights of the Alham
bra the noise and jar of cities appear as
far off as if they belong to another world.
Everything is full of an ineffable sense of
repose, of peace, of long unbroken
silences, save when the irrepressible tour
ist breaks in upon you unobserved and
disturbs your sense of the fitness of
things.
As you stand at your window at night
fall you may hear the nightingales sing
ing in the elms beneath, and as you wake
next morning and see Granada dimly
shining in the golden mist of dawn far
below, the white, snowy crest of the
Sierra Nevada in the distance and the
nearer hills, all blue and purple as a
background to the fairy palace at whose
gates you dwell, you may well feel that
you have rarely looked on a fairer scene,
or at all events oue more full of deep and
abiding interest.—Cor. San Francisco
Chronicle.
How a Panorama Is Painted.
The popular idea of how the war cy-
cloramas, like the Battle of Gettysburg,
Battle of Shiloh, Battle of Chickamauga,
etc., are painted appeals very laughable
to a person who knows how the work
accomplished. The Battle of Gettysburg
and the Siege of Paris have been shown
for several years on opposite sides of
Hubbard court, in Chicago, and the stock
paid large dividends. Each was adver
tised as the work of celebrated French
artists, father and son, and the popular
idea is that these gentlemen painted them
The fact is that, beyond a general out
lining of the work, which was probably
faithfully made after maps procured from
authentic sources and a general direction
of the plan of the work, the artist in
chief had very little to do with it. No
man engaged in a battle sees it, and an
accurate painting of two armies in com
bat is impossible. The general features
only are known. For instance, in the
Gettysburg painting there are accurately
defined the roads, Crown Hill, Little Crown
Hill, the wheat field Ih which a memorable
charge was made, one or two buildings
which were headquarters of the leading
generals, and with reasonable accuracy,
the topography of the country is de
picted with excellent perspective. But
the details of the battle, the actual clash
of arms between this and that division
or brigade, is left a good deal to the
imagination.
The artist-in-chief hires some men to
put in the sky, other men to put in the
trees and foliage, other men to put in
the men in action. Attention is paid to
developing this or that memorable inci
dent, as in the Gettysburg painting, the
death of the cannoneer, the amputation
of the soldier’s limb beside the haystack.
Take it all together, it makes up a
picture that is thrilling enough to arouse
die most intense interest on the part of
the old soldier. I remember standing by
she side of a veteran at the Chica-
picture of Gettysburg. He was explain
ing to a companion the details of the
light, in which he had borne an honor-
ible part. “Sav Bill,” said he, “at that
3tone wall there I lost my hat, and, by
gosh, if there ain’t the old hat lying
there yet!” In painting pictures of bat
tles shrewd artists never fail to bestrew
the field with lost hats, muskets and
canteens.—Artist in Globe-Democrat.

English SimpUeity of Manner.
If there is anything which English
women dislike more than another it is
making a fuss. They do not gush over
a new acquaintance or over an old one;
it is the avoidance of fuss and gush and
sloppy compliments which has gained
them a reputation for coldness of man
ner. The coldness of manner is simplicity
of mauner; that and nothing else, and it
is simplicity of nature which dictates the
simple manner. Lunch may mean a
party of twenty people, but whether
twenty or two, there is no ceremony.
The ladies walk into the dining room
by themselves, the men straggle
after, and find their way to such
seats as suit them. The talk is as easy as
if you were sitting about a fire, or more
so. If the lunch is a small one, the talk
ripples about the table; if large, you have
to take your chance with the two fellow
creatures next you—men or women, as
chance, yoU or superior strategy may
have determined. Society does not ob
ject to serious topics, or even to the seri
ous treatment of them; what it objects
to is pedantry, pretention, dullness—to
that which is heavy as distinguished from
that which is serious. It has preferences
and strong preferences, but it will endure
much. What it will not endure is the
professor who brings into its presence the
solemnities of the lecture room, or the
man who arrives with a mission.—G. W.
Smalley in New York Tribune.
Science for the Million.
Nowadays when a man travels there is
no reason, if he visits some country that
has not been exhausted, why he should
not bring back many solid and accurate
facts of scientific value, even though he
may lack extended training in science
Both the English and the Germans have
comprehensive hand books comoiled by
the most notable authorities, giving the
traveler manifold hints how. to make his
wanderings useful to the world. They
show him ip the simplest possible manner
the methods of making route maps, of
ascertaining most easily and accurately
the width and velocity of rivers, the
height of mountains, latitudes, longitudes
and so on. They point out the facts he
needs to observe to give geologists the
clearest idea of tho physical structure of
a country. They show him how to make
and preserve collections in natural his
tory, supply hints on surveying and pho
tography, and tell him just what to do to
make his observations valuable.
If, in addition to those hints, he desires
preliminary instruction and practical
field training, ample provisions to meet
his wants have been supplied by the
geographical societies in London, Paris
and Berlin, where at moderate [ cost (in
London only two shillings and sixpence
an hour) he is drilled in surveying and
mapping, geology, including field train
ing, geological survey, botany, and pho
tography. This is all the preliminary
training that many of our most eminent
explorers, including Stanley, have re
ceived. Many ingenious devices and ex
pedients have also been invented to facili
tate the work of the explorer, of which
we need only mention hero the French
color plates, each tint having its own
number, by means of which the traveler
is able to give a far more accurate idea of
the color of the people ho meets than he
could convey by any description. The
invention of dry plates in photography
also has been a great boon to explorers.—

A Short amt Tough Lot.
The lot of our criminal classes seems
demonstrably to be a short one and a
tough one. It has actually no ameliora
tions. “Out of GO, 000 prisoners, more
than one-half are between the ages of 17
and 30.” It takes but three generations
^ to use up a stock that runs to vice. Tho
^ coverage life of vicious people is less than
si\<X>ne-half that of people of virtue. A
recent writer complains that science
, .A create^ a code of morals that consists in
v health. Is that not precisely why we are

A Gaug of Greeks.
It was pleasant to look at the gang of
Greek immigrants that had been brought
to Castle Garden, by a steamship from
one of the Mediterranean ports. They
had come from the vicinity of ancient
Athens to try their fortunes in New
York. It was evident to any one who
looked at their garb as they set foot upon
our shores and meandered through Bat
tery park that they were very poor peo
ple, whose lives had been very hard, but
you could not find on this globe finer
specimens of any race of mankind.
They would have made models for a
sculptor. Their figures had been cast in
an antique mold, worthy of the time of
Pericles; their limbs were lithe, their
features classical, and they bore them
selves proudly as they glanced around at
the novel scenes of the locality. ’ The im
migrants from Greece who landed - at
Castle Garden last year numbered over
COO men and women.—New York Even

Slaves and Railroads.
As a whole nation we are not greatly
concerned to inquire into the prospects of
African commerce. We are not bound
to consider closely whether good or bad
trade will be the outcome of the recent
agreement between France, Germany,
and Great Britain on the affairs of Zan
zibar, or what will be the trade results of
our own recent great acquisition of ex
clusive influence in the southern parts of
the country. It must yet be borne in
mind that trade questions are themselves
intimately bound up with the rescue of
the African from his tyrants; seeing that
commerce, as it is at present conducted
in many parts of Eastern Central Africa,
even that larger kind of commerce with
which the white man eventually deals at
the sea coast emporia, necessarily
involves the employment of slaves as
carrier's.
In roadless regions inhabited by people
who are too primitive to breed cattle,
and where belts of country infested bv
the tsetse fly have to be crossed, none
but human beasts of burden can bear the
products of industry. An elephant may
be killed a thousand miles front the
coast, and each tusk is the burden of a
negro slave to the nearest seaport, while
it will have taken three or four negroes
to carry the calico required to pay the
elephant hunter in the interior. Slavery
and slave carriage is therefore at present
a necessary incident of trade in manv
parts of Africa. It is evident that if
civilized modes of carriage are once es
tablished in the German and English
“spheres of influence,” slave borne traffic
will give way to cheaper and more
speedy conveyance by road, by rail, or
by navigable river.—Nineteenth Century.

THE WORLD CHALLENGED.
To produce anything like an approach to our now justly celebrated Blood Remedy, B. B. B., we make hold to
claim the following special points of value and advantage over any other remedy on the market: 1. That it consists
of the most valuable remedies known to the medical profession- 2. That the combination of the remedies has never
been equaled in any medicine that has ever been known.. 3. Its beneficial results can be felt sooner than by the use of
any other remedy. 4. It takes less quantity and less money to produce a cure than any other remedy. We are
willing for B. B. B. to stand on its own merits, and as our words are unnecessary in proving its efficiency as a blood
remedy, we simply invite a careful perusal of the following voluntary certificates from;the thousands who nave-tried it.
They are eloquent tributes, and speak for themselves. To the skeptical, we would! further say: Inquire of your
neighbor who has tried our great remedy. Here are the certificates :
A REMARKABLE LETTER.
SHE HAD TRIED EVERYTHING ELSE.
Down Two Years With Rheumatism j
and Now Entirely Well.
I have been troubled with rheumatism for
two years; had gotten so I could sc-arceiy
walk, and was in pain nearly all the time. At
night could not sieep for the excruciating
din. Tlie bone in one of my legs was very
much enlarged, and I feared that amputation
ould be necessary. After trying many dii-
ferent patent mc-dicines claiming to cure
rheumatism and other complaints, I was al
most discouraged until about two weeks ago,
when I had to give up business, Mr. W. J.
Willingham, of your city, hearing of my com
plaint, advised the use of your medicine, and
assured me of iris confidence in it as a cure
for rheumatism. I at once purchased a bot
tle, hoping it might relieveme, blit not. having
much faith in it, or in anything else; but,
thank God, I am very muen relieved, and I
firmly believe I will get entirely well. The
swelling has gone down and I am in no pain
hatever. Am at work again, and have been
for several days. Can run up and down the
stairway in factory as nimbly as ever. I
thank you for this earthly salvation to me.

Sir: I have been thinking of writing.toyou
for some time to let you know of the wonder
ful cure your B. B- B. has effected on rnyseif
and daughter. She, a girl of 38 years, was
taken with a very sore leg below the knee. I
used aoout 30 bottles of other medicine to no
purpose. The doctors said tbe only remedy
left was amputation. That we all were op
posed to. I was in Knoxville the 8th of Jan
uary, 1887, and while buying a bill of drugs
called for a good blood purifier, and Messrs.
Sanford, Cliamberfand & Co- recommended
the B. B. B. I purchased one-half dozen bot
tles, and, to m.v utter surprise, after using
three or four bottles, my girl’s leg was entire
ly well. I also had a very ugfy running sore
on the calf ot my leg anti one bottle cured it,
after trying all other remedies. I wish you
much success, and lido hope that ail suffering
humanity may hear and believe in the only
true blood purifier. Thave tried three or four
blood purifiers, but the B.B.B; is the only oue
that ever did me or mine any good. You can
use my name if youiwish- lam well known

A GOOD EXPERIMENT.
Mkkidian, Miss., July 2, 1887.
Fora number oi years I have suiffe red un
told agsmies from the effects of blood poison.
I had nay case treated by several prominent

I resorted to all sorts of patent medicines,
spending a large amount ot money but getting
no better- My attention was attracted by the
cures said to liave been effected by B. B. B. t
and I began taking it merely as a experiment,
iiaving.sh.it little faith in the ultimate results.
To my otter surprise I soon commenced to
improve, and deem myself to-day a well and

Booneville, Ind., .January 27, 18S7.
I shall ever praise the day that you gentle
men were born, and shall b-ess the day that
your medicine was known.to me. I had blood
poison from birth, and so much so that all
the doctors of my town said I would be crip
pled for life. They said I would lose my low
er limb. I could not stand, in my class to re
cite my lessons, and eleven bottles of your
Balm cured me sound and well. You can use
my name as you see fit. lu mv case tiiere
were knots on my shinbones as large as a
hen’s egg. Yours, Mirtle M. Tanner.
Batik-more, April 20, 1887.—For over twen

bowels.and bleeding piles, and frrewweak and
thin from constant loss of blood. I have used
four bottles of BB.B B„ and have gained 15
in weigh tand my general health Is better than

the besj medicine 3 have ever used, and owe
my improvement to the use of Betanie Blood
Balm. . Eugeni us A. Smith, 318 Exeter St.

I have been a practical druggist in Tyler for
. number of years, and in that time have had
| occasion to examine, try, and notice the effect
of-nearly all the highly recommended prepar
ations or patent medic nes on the market, as
I have suffered untold misery myself, the past
number of years, from a severe form of in
flammatory rheumatism, and could find
nothing to cure or relieve me. I bad almost
drawn a conclusion that all patent medicines
were more or less frauds until about one year
ago, I was induced by a friend now living in
Tyler to try a preparation known as 3 B., or!
botanic Blood Halm, and after a long per
suasion on his part, I finally made up my
mind to make one more effort to rid myself!
of the terrible affliction; and now it affords
me the greatest pleasure of my liie to state to c — —. ——
the citiz nsof Hmitii county that I am entire- ' February 9, 1887;
ly cured, with no tr ices of the disease left, fde-r. I heard of B.
and all effected by the magic healing proper- j
ties of B. B. B., which I consider the grand.- !
est, purest, and most powerful blood remedy 1
known to man. I have been subject to in- J
flammatorv attacks since ten years of age,,
ami up to the present time have had four. J
The last s;>ell came on me in November., 1885. \
over a year ago, at which ime I was coafiuted }
to my bed for eight weeks, passing the nights
in misery, with ito sleep except wlien produc
ed by narcotics and various opiates. The
week previous to using B. B. B. up to that
time I had only eaten"six meals and could
scarcely sit up without support; but after us
ing three bottles 1 was able to relish my
meals and to walk up town, and after six bot
tles had been nsed, thank heaven, I was en
tirely cured, and hot the slightest pain felt
since that time. When I returned to business
in February my weight was 145 pounds, but
gradually increased until my regular weight
was again attained, 210 pounds. The noticea
ble fact in what I have so cheerfully stated is,
that this unparalleled and remarkable dis-
coverv B. B B. cured me in mid-winter, at
the very time my sufferings and misery were
the greatest. I lake it on myself as a practi
cal druggist to heartily, cheerfully, as well as
conscientiously, recommend this glorious
biood remedy to all sufferers from rheuma
tism or blood troubles, and not only myself,

I have had 1 catarrh of the bead for-nearly

treated me for it, hut eoulct not cure me, be

up to die. I had a distressing cough ; my
eyes were swollen and I am confident I could
not have lived without a change. I sent and
got a bottle of your medicine, used it, and
felt better. Then I got four more, and thank
God! it cured me. Use this any way you
may wish for the good of sufferers.

This is to certify that my wife has been in
bad health for eight years. After trying five
doctors and six or seven different patent
medicines, six bottles of your B. B. B. has
cured her. James W. Lancaster.
after I despaired of obtaining relief, a friend-
recommended B. B. Bt, (Botanic Blood Balm)
and I began using it; not, however, expecting;
to be benefited. Alter using half a bottle I
was satisfied I was being benefited, and when
tlie sixth bottle was used I felt like a new
man. I would not take $1,000 fer tile good it
has done me: in faa-t, the relief that I derived
I from it is priceless. I firmly believe I would
have died had I net taken it.
