of anecdotes as pithy as this, we should like to
examine it:
Many years ago an amusing little incident
occurred In our little village, which, from its
applicability to things of more importance, i'm
pressed itself on my memory. A little lad, in
crossing the street in front of my uncle's house,
to small dry goods and grocery store on
the other side, was frightened by the violent
barking Of large dog near the shon and had
not the courage to proceed. The owner silenced
the dog and then babe the child come on as
there was no danger now. "Aht 6ut," said
the little fellow, casting a dubious glance at
the object Of alarm, "fhe banks Is in hin, y;

than that of giving them animal diet very

are diminished, especially the hillary secretion,
and constipation of the bowels, and congestion
