The dweller or temporary sojourner in

with danger. Besides inhaling at every
breath an atmosphere saturated with an in
fictitious poison, he also drinks water which

liza bilious subject, deficient in stamina, or
irregular in habit of body or digestion, his
peril is much increased, as these abnormal
conditions are extremely favorable TO the
contraction of malarial disease But this
danger may be safely encountered with the
assistance of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which completely nuiifes the atmospheric
virus, and neutralizes the constituents of
miasma-tainted water This benign antidote
to disease eradicates and prevents fevers of
an intermittent and bilious remittent type,
besides etfeeting a thorough and permanent
reform of those enfeebled or irregular con
ditions of the system which invite not only
malaria, but other diseases equally to be
dreaded

The Boy Who Wanted to Drink.

FROM Inc burlington fiaNKeye.
Moreover, l saw the boy who wanted
drink-a restless, questioning, uneasy,
thirsty boy. He let the window fall on
his fingers before the train had gone a
mile. He stood out on the platform
until he was incrusted two inches deep
with ashes and dust and cinders. He
went to the water cooler and got drink
then he came back and told his mother
he was hot, and went back and got an
other drink. He drank about four times
per mile, seldom oftener, unless he was
seized with a sudden uncomfortable
spasm Of thirst. If he wasdrinking, and
somebody else came after drink, the
boy would suddenly sieze the cup he had
just set down and refill it, and drink as
though he had wrapped his stomach in
the desert of Sahara, glazing suspiciously
over the top Of the cup at the waiting
passenger as he drank. When he was in
his seat, he watched the aisle narrowly,
and if he saw any passenger get up and
move toward the water-cooler, he would
Jump up and race for it. If he got there
first, he would drink and snore over the
cup until the thirsty traveller forgot
what he went down there after. People
began to wonder how much the boy was
gagged for, and if he wasn't rather
straining his capacity. The remotest
hint or suggestion was enough to send
him to the cooler. When the train ran
over a creek, the water made him think
of his thirst. When it ratified over a
long stretch of dry prairie, the absence
of water drove him mad. | was afraid
the supply of water would give out be-
fore the boy was filled up, and he was a
rather small boy, too. His interior cir
conference, think, must have inclosed
an area double in extent to that inclosed
by the exterior belt. Near Waseca we
ran nearly a mile without the boy max
ing stop at the tank. / grew very
nervous now, for [ was fearful that dur
ing such al unheard of abstinence from
water his pumps would run dry, rust
out, and he might blow up. So ] leaned
over the edge of the seat and said care
lesslv:
"By George, but I am thirsty. l
wonder if there is any water on this
carp
You want TO understand me now, as
recording very plainly, and without any
mental reservation, the fact that that
boys mother, sitting beside him, was no
fool. Her eyes snapped when she heard
my careless and innocent remark, she
took in every syllable of it, and she
turned on me in a fash with 81 wish
you would mind your own business and
leave nay boy alone"
A low, mocking murmur of applause
went through the car, little of it for
the indignant mother, some of it for the
charity boy, but most of it for me. She
suppressed yours truly very successfully,
but it was too late. Long before she
finished that brief sentence her boy was
down at the water-cooler holding his
eyes tight shut to keep the water from
running out of them, While he flooded
his system as though he had taken con-
tract to keep up perennial Baptist re-
yiyal inside of himself,

Tony Dibbon would certainly have
taken fifty dollars for himself just then,
if any one had made him an offer. He
went back to Stickup's with Mr..

THE ROBBER.
BY WILLIAM {. BRYANT.

Beside lonely mountain path,
Within messy wood
That crowned the Wild, wind beaten cIifFs
A lurking robber stood.
His foreign garb, his gloomy eye,
His cheek OF s~arthy stain,
Bespoke him obe who might have been
pirate on the main,
Or bandit from the far-off hills
OF Cubs or of Spain.

Two Noted Grave Robbers.

Our readers will remember the account

grave of the Hon. Scott Harrison, in Ohio,
last May, the body being found In the dis
secting room of the Ohio Medical College
Public Indignation justly brands any man
as a scoundrel who will rob the grave of the
dead. But there are two noted grave rob
bers in the country, so far from being the
subjects OF the peoples wrath, are univers-
ally lauded for their virtues. The reason is
plain. While the former class steal the
dead bodies of our loved ones to submit
them to the dissecting knife. these only rob
the graves to restore the living victims TO
our hearts and homes. Their names DR.
