the kindness and important service he
received from Sir Bartle Frere and the
Bombay Government before starting on
his expedition, and says that he has
written TO express his thankfulness, but
his letters to and from the coast have
al been destroyed, apparently because
he was considered a spy on the slave
trade, whose correspondence would do
no good to the traffic. "The search for
the sources of the Nile they know to be
sham, and was prevented from either
getting supplies of goods or sending in
formation coastwise. This letter, how
ever, goes by Henry M. Stanley, the
travelling correspondent of the New
York Herald, sent at an expense of over
$1,000 to obtain accurate information
and afford assistance in my ISOLATION"
The Doctor then describes at some
length his geographical discoveries in
terms similar to those OF his letters in
the Herald, and concludes as follows !:

tended-six years instead Of two-but
have lost two whole years in time, been
burdened by 1880 miles of useless

supplies and men being intrusted to
our Bantam Indian fellow subjects, and
they intrusted the whole thing to slaves,
who lay and ieasted on my stores for
sixteen months, and then sold off all
for slaves and ivory. The slave trade in
all this region, and especially in Man
yema, is carried on almost exclusively
with arms, ammunition and goods adj.

Their slaves needed no more than a

Keeling In Trees.

The Gardeners Monthly says: awe
have no doubt that more trees are lost
from imperfect heeling in than from
any other cause whatever" which every
Observing person who has seen the way
in which the roots of trees are buried
in masses with large interstices Of air
among the roots will assent to. Trees
badly heeled in should not remain so
twenty.four hours before planting out.
Clods and masses of earth are merely
thrown on the tops of roots, and only
shade them from the suns rays. In q
few days the roots will become dry, be.
cause they are not in contact with the
moist earth. If the heeling in is well
performed, every crack and creyice will

Keeping Cider.

A good method for keeping cider is,
first, TO just bring it TO the boiling point
in bright brass kettle or clean tin
boiler, skim and barrel tightly. When
wanted, draw off one TO ten gallons, ac-
cording TO the number of those using
it, and let the air have access TO it for a
day or two. 1t will then be in fine con-
dition for use. After the new cider has
settled so as to be perfectly clear, draw
off and foIr into new barrels through
the bungs. Add two quarts of pure
alcohol to the barrel and cork tight.
Ia all cases put in the faucets before
filling the barrels, so that there need be
no shaking or moving of the cider after
it is once stored.

Value Of Gymnastic Training.

An incident is related of the fire in
Canterbury Cathedral which goes to
show the value Of gymnastic training
in an emergency. When it was at
tempted to convey the fire hose to the
roof, where the fire first broke out, the
ladders used for the purpose were found
to be too short. Time was pressing; to
have sent for other ladders would have
been to give the fire such Roadway as to
make the destruction of the entire
cathedral almost inevitable. In the
.juncture soldier, who had mounted
first, showed that rather rare combina-
nation of mental decision and physical
intrepidity which are the basis of the
true heroic element. Without hesitat-
ing a moment, he leaped, at the risk of
his life, for the overhanging leaden gut
ter above him, caught it with one hand,
and, by sheer strength, drew himself up
and on the root. From this position he
could assist his comrades 10 ascend, and
so the magnificent structure was, hap
ply, saved. In the first year of the
rebellion, it will be remem bered, the
Fire Zouaves rendered a somewhat SIM
liar service in saving Wizards Hotel,
IN washington Guy, from threatened
conflagration. Ladders were not at
hand, or sufficient for use, and the
Zouaves made ladders of themselves,
swarming up water-spouts, climbing
upon one another's shoulders, or dang.
ling in living chains from the roof, with
an agility and daring which were duly
and wonderfully commemorsted in the
pictorial prints of the day. These Incl.
dents suggest the value of systematic
eymnastic drill for our firemen, as is the
custom, we believe, in the French fire

before large audience in a church in

fully effective politician, and warm
friend Of Bromley, was greatly edited
by the production. Congratulating the
editor upon his success as the crowd
was dispensing, the Postmaster observed
that there was one drawback-he only
heard imperfectly. Bromley thought
he spoke loud enough for the size of
the church.

On a Tare.

This story was told of father who
was one evening teaching his little boy
to recte his Sunday school lesson. 1t
was from the fourteenth chapter. OF
Matthew, wherein is related the parable
of a malicious individual who went
about sowing tares: "Whst is a tare?
Tell me, my son, what a tare is, said
the anxious parent. "You had emf

Broken Tale.

The cash must accompany all tales
and poetry published in this depart

The following extract is portion of
a thrilling story of love, revenge, ben.
zine and dry holes that the local editor
received yesterday, from a talented
young writer, whose literary star is in
the ascendant, and is now beginning to
twinkle above the hills of Red Hot.
Our usual custom has been to publish
original tales at our regular advertising
rates of so much per line, and, as we
are determined not to deviate from this
rule, we only print as much of this story

4 Tale Of the Pipe Line and Transfers
Crusade.
The late September twilight was 10th
to leave the family starred, dim blue
heaven. Watts of delicious fragrance
tioated down over the town of Titusville
from the sweet scented acid works. the
hillside brewery, the golden jungle of
suntlo%ers, and dew covered patches of
sauerkraut in the raw. Low above the
ragged line of forest that tringed Kerr's
Hill, hung the young silver crescent.
Two lovers stand at garden gate.
The woman's face is fresh and fair as
that Of the Sistine Madonna, and from
the same cause-paint, laid on by a
master hand. You can Off not near
sighted) see distinctly the lustrous
richness OF her hazel eyes, as the soft
light of the moon falls aslant her
slightly aquiline nose. The man is
handsome, too tall and symmetrical as
a telegraph pole, well shaped, and mus.
cular as the sheet iron statue of William
Shakespeare on the Parshall Opera
House, and with face OF graceful con-
tour, slightly oval, like that of Hub.
bard squash. 1t is Elsie De Ferguson's
voice that comes over the gate and
breaks the stiffness of the cleaning.
"And so, Paul, you have signed the
contract not to drill any more wells for
thirty days?"
I" Yes yes! of course / have he
murmurs, as he takes her hand in his
while murmuring his words, and at the
same time removing chaw OF fine cut,
which he slyly hides on the gate post,
and stoops to kiss her white forehead
that glimmers in the moonlight.
" But what ale you going to do for q
living, Paul ?'' asked the unsuspecting
maiden.
Elsie did not see the sinister smile
that fitted over Pauls face as he heard
her question, nor did she catch the
muttered words, "three queens beat one
pair" that fell from his lips.
This is ell Of the above interesting
story that will appear in these columns.

gloss and freshness of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, Or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty scdi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray Or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruff, which is often so I'M
clearly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustrc, and a grateful perfume.
