Some time during the latter part of last

wounded John futile. The bullet struck him
in the left leg and the doctors pronounce it

such extreme measures as shooting This

Sources of Personal Beauty.

A beautiful person is the natural form
ola beautiful soul. The mind builds its
own house. The soul takes precedence
OF the body, and shapes the body to its
own likeness. a vacant mind takes all
the meaning out of the fairest face. A
sensual disposition deforms the hand
soonest features. A cold. selfish heart
shrivels and distorts the best looks. A
mean, groveling spirit takes all the digni-
ty out OF the figure and al the character
out Of the countenance A cherished
hatred transforms the most beautiful
lineaments into an image of ugliness. It
is impossible to preserve good looks with
brood of bad passions feeding on the
blood, set of low loves tramping
through the heart, and selfish disdainful
spirit enthrnned in the will, as to preserve
the beauty OF an elegant mansion with a
litter OF swine in the basement, tribe of
gipsies in the parlor, and owls and vul-
lures in the upper part Badness and
beauty Will no more keep company a
great while than poison will consort with
health, or an elegant carving survive the

just how many rats that dog had slaugn

marvellous. There was no doubt about
1t, tor he learned it from the ruan of

ought to know. The dog was industri-

good points, when rat was observed to

race, on the hunt for something to eat,

ratter.

excitement of anticipated sport! '.ju:t

''Why, the dog doesn't seem to see him
does he?" said the lady of the house
That's all right, he is laying for him.
You'll see some fun directly. There, he
sees him now.'

tall between his legs that way, and bris-
Il up so?'

that because he's mad. Don't say a

The rat approached nearer and nearer
to his doom; the dog tremb.ed with ex-
c1tement and anxiety to get at his game
at least that's what his owner said
When the cheeky rodent, after getting
within about foot of the bone, skipped
up and seized it, and shot back into his
hole as though he had forgotten some
thing, while the famous ratter let out a
shrill chorus Of yelps, and nearly tripped
his dlsgusted owner up in shooting
around and between his legs to escape
legions of imaginary rats.

A Horsewoman's Narrow ESCAPE;

The Denver (Col.1 Tribune describes an
accident which recently happened to Mrs.
u. y. Mallett, of Canon CITY. Mrs
Mallett is an excellent horsewoman and
having great confidence in her riding
skill, started out with her husband and
other trends on horseback, to visit the
canon. OF all the wonderful canons in
Colorado the Grand Canon of the Ar
kansas Is the most awe-inspiring. The
walls are 2,O00lfeet high at places, and al,
most perpendicular. Before operations
were begun within them by the railroad
men, no one ever attempted to pass
through the gorge, except during the
winter, and Il en- on ice. The laborers
nave, however, made paths in the yery
sizes OF the immense preclpices, and it
was along one of these that Mrs. Mallett
ana her friends were travelling. She rode
a trusty horse, and was as composed as
any OF her party. They had proceeded
TO point beyond the horse trail and
were descending a steep hill.
Inc path was narrow one, the walls
OF the canon shooting far up toward the
blue, clear sky, and down tor hundreds
OF feet until they dipped into the dis
turbed waters of the rapid rolling Ar
kansas. 1t was at this dangerous spot
that Mrs. Mallett's horse stumbled and
Tell There was no room for the least
ialter. This was, therefore. fatal step.
Mrs Mallett, with almost incredible
presence of mind, disentangled herself

wide. This she struck and caught with
her hands. With nerve that would have

dangling in the air, gripping it with des-
peratlon. Had she let go, her Judgment
would have been on another shelf fifty
leet below. To hold on was her only re-
sort. With all the dispatch possible,
Maltet and others came to her rescue. and
succeeded in taking her from her peri
lous situation almost uninjured, but of
course very much exhausted from fright.
NOW comes the strangest part of the
story The horse fell also, and lodged
on the same shelf to which his mistress
was clinging. In falling he had turned
completely around, but there he stood
on the narrow ledge of stone. huggine
the wall, and evidently realizing his
position, if horse ever realized any
thing. He did not stir muscle, hardly
breathed for, an hour or more, until
ropes strong enough to take him out
was sent for and obtained at a camp
mile distant. By the time these arrived.
fitty men or more, who were engaged in
the canon, had gathered along the trail,
and as many as could make themselves
useful, assisted in lifting the animal up.
He seemed to realize fully that steps
were being taken for his relief, and did
not move to make resistance until he was
placed upon a sure footing in the path.

And summons from the silent land

That may look on thy dear face,

Which darkly rolls its Stygian tide
From shore to shore;
Silent and deep through lonely years,
Swollen with bitter farewell tears
Forever more.

Till in that grand immortal sphere,
Where sorrows cease,
We meet and on that loving breast
My weary head shall be at rest
