Alton Fight.

The Journal du H0Vre recounts a
terrible encounter between the lion
tanner Bidel and number of wild beasts.
Bidel's custom was to go into the cage
of these ferocious animals accompanied
by sheep, which was by his presence
kept safe from attack. On recent oc-
casion be proceeded to the lions cage,
and his first action was to place the
sheep on the back of ioness, as he
had frequently done before. No sooner
had he accomplished this than power
full lion sprang upon the poor sheep and
buried his teeth deep into vital part OF
its body. There were large number OF
spectators present, and the sudden act
of the lion created an instant and gen
eral panic. Bidel stepped forward, and
with the utmost GOODNESS struck the lion
blow on the mouth with heavy stick,
which made him crouch and yell with
pain, and throw his bleeding victim
trembling at the feet of the courageous
performer. In another moment, how
ever, ali the wild beasts were lashed into
fury by the sight of the blood, and no
one in the assembly believed that Bldel
could possibly escape. Preserving his
presence of mind, however, he kept the
other animals at bay until he had sub
dued the lion and chased him back to
his cage. He then fought his way back
through the other animals, and, amidst
the braves of the assembly, came out
triumphant, carrying his wounded sheep
with him. The poor animal, which was
a great favorite of the lion-tamer's, has
since died of its wounds.

In the forty years that the Merchants
Gargling Oil has been before the pubic,
thousands of patent medicines have
been ushered into the market and re-
tired, while this old remedy has held on
its way, increasing in popularity with
each succeeding year. Merchants Gar
Cling Oil is known Familiarity the whole
length and breadth of the land, and the
name of the Secretary, Mr.. John Hodge,
of Lockport, has fame as wide as the
medicine he dispenses. We have no
data as to the number of bottles sent out
from the mandatory last year, but the
quantity must have been enormous. The
company distribute two millions of alma
nacs and domestic recipe books annually,
and when it is remembered that these
are given away, some idea of the extent
of the advertising enterprise may be
formed. "A medicine that will stand the
test Of forty years, as the Merchants
Gargling Oil has done. needs no special
Endorsement at this late day.-Bufalo

AUTUMN.


They have come-the Autumn days,
tAea tie Ted suns chastened rays,
In the wood,
GElirrner bright on shade and hue
That the Summer never knew,
And pierce the thicket through
Where stood.
In the Spring, content to greet
All the beauties at my feet,
And to stay,
Never caring what beside
Natures verdant veil might hide
Far away.
All! the view is clearer now;
Dead. the tendriI on the bough,
Sunk, the veil.
End the ocean is in sight.
Spreading gloom, and flashing llghI,
Where the sun will sink at night
Dim and pale.
Tt had come-the Autumn time;
Passed the Summer and the prime
Of my days.
Careless I of joys or fears,
For the sod was dank with tears;
Withered fell the hopes OF years
In my gaze.
when the magic of Thy love
Let the sun in from above,
Soft and bright,
And saw with altered mind
That the Autumn, too, was kind
In its light.
For, just as brighter sheen
GI0rifies the passing green
OF the leaf,
And the vistas opening clear
Let the wider scenes appear
Free from grief,
So might it be in life,
When the glory and the strife
OF its June
Had shed their flowers and fruits,
From pure or poisoned roots,
Late or soon.
We may find a grander view,
With wider passage through
To our rest.
And that love which blossoms last,
When PASSIONS dream is past,
Is the best.

OiIinG Harness.

A good harness is costly, but if prop
erly used and cared for will last a good
many years If neglected it will soon
need repairs, and in a short time become
utterly worthless. In caring for a har-
ness one great point is to see that it is
suitably oiled A work harness, in use
on farm, should be oiled twice year,
in the spring and fall. 1t should be ia
ken entirely apart. the places where
sweat and dirt have collected cleaned
with chip or an old case knife, then
washed clean in warm water, IN which a
little CASTLE soap has been dissolved. As
they are washed the straps should be
hung on pole to dry.
When the outside is nearly dry, but
before the moisture is all out of the
leather the oil should be applied. This
may be done with clean paint brush,
which is the best thing for the purpose, a
sponge or wooden cloth. A moderate
quantity should be used, and if it does
not soften the leather enough, another
light coating may be applied when the
first one is well dried in. This is better
than it is to put on a great deal at once.
Care should be taken to obtain a good
quality of oil for leather. There are
some patent proof preparations in which
a waterproof ingredient is added to oil,
and also little coloring substance to
make the leather look black and glossy.
An honest mixture of this kind is better
than the crude oil. Cheap oils are gem
orally poor. When dry sthe harness
should be rubbed with CASTLE soap, then
with dry wooden cloth. When this is
done it may be put together and used.
This work should rot be neglected until
the hurry of planting and hoeing time,
but should receive attention now.-Live
