the center of his forehead down to the

as though he had been struck by light

ago in the accident on the Harlem Rail-
road, near Williams Bridge. He was

Succulent Food for Sheep.

In 1888 1 had about 200 sheep. Early
in November a snow-storm came, which
lasted fortnight before it all melted,
and covered up 200 or 800 bushels of
apples. The sheep came down from
the hills, got on the apples and eat
nothing else, except some corn-husks
in the next field. 1t was in vain that
we offered them hay or other fodder so
long as the apples lasted. had fears
for their health, but the result was
not sick sheep in all winter. The
year 1884 my apples were cut off by
frost, so that had none to feed. l had
flock of about 100 lambs, which l
kept separate from the other sheep and
fed on the best of hay. About January,
L perceived that they were securing
badly. 1 was surprised at this, as
they had no laxative food. Finally one
died, and upon opening it l found the
stomach so full of dry hay that nothing
could pass except in fluid state. At
the same time the gall had been excited
so that it overfiowed, first the liver,
then the stomach, and finally the lungs,
when the sheep died. l then began
feeding on potatoes, which saved all
but five or six, which died, and were
opened with the same showing as the
first. In following years had apples
fed to the sheep, and was rarely
troubled with a sick one. This con-
tinued till 1910, when / sold out and
went into another business. Twas con-
vinced that if had had apples in 1884
1 should have saved my flock of lambs

THE HEAVY CROSS.

ROBERr HOPE and Samuel Hullins
had lived neighbors for more than
twelve years; and it Is probable they
would always have been on good terms
had not Samuel, who had served under
Admiral Nelson, gained at Trafalgar q
small pension, which he had paid for
by the loss Of one of his legs. This leg
less. and this pension more, were for
Robert . continual source of jealousy
he accused fate for having left him his
two feet. and complained bitterly that
he had not been able, as he said, to sell
his legs at the same price with Hullins.
Every time he went to pay his rent, he
repeated grumblingly that his neighbor
was very fortunate; that he was in q
condition to meet his bills, since the
King gave him . good pension, while
he, poor fellow. had hard work to make
both ends of the year meet without
taking into acco0nt his creditors.
4 Robert st first contented himself with
making these reflections inwardly, but
by degrees his dissatisfaction was ex.
pressed aloud, and became his habitual
and favorite theme OF conversation.
One week that his rent had fallen be-
hindhand, and he was sadly advancing
toward the house of Mr.. Taylor, in or
der to make his excuses for the delay,
he met neighbor Hullins, who was as
regular as . clock in paying his rent.

pose.

The Modern IrOquois.

Nearly 5000 of the descendants of
the old Six Nations of Central and
Western New York are at Forestville,
Wis. We believe they are mostly Cay
ugas. The United States agent in
charge of this reservation reports that
nearly 1000 of these 5000 can read and
write; that they have twenty-nine day
and two manual labor schools, and that
they cultivate their land so diligently
that they pay all the expenses of their
living. They are not the old Iroquois
in spirit, or courage, or adventures; but
they may yet play part in civilization
quite as worthy of their lineage as that
of the warriors who burned and raw
ished up and down the Mohawk valley
during the Revolution. One popular
delusion respecting them-that they
are dying out-has been thoroughly
eradicated from the public mind. If to
those of the Six Nations who are on
this reservation we add the Canadian
descendants of the famous confederacy
we have a number nearly if not quite
as large as the total census of the Iro-
quois at the time when they were the
masters and conquerors of the continent.

Romance in Real Life.

AN extremely singular affair trans
pired in this city last week, the actors
in which are highly respectable citizens
residing at present on Tenth street.
Some twenty years ago there came to
far-off Eastern city q young man, whose
pleasing address and engaging habits
soon won the hand and heart of one of
the reig ming bellies of the Orient me-
tropolis.
There were lights, music, joy, priest
ly words-a wedding; the former maid
en- being now known as Mrs. Little.
A few short years and there appeared
a shadow, at first the size of a mans
hand; afterward shutting out of the
joy and the sunshine; then chaotic
darkness. The fatal eclipse is death!
Years of mourning followed, sanctifed
by the tears of grief. Time came, and
over the urn of the mourned sprang the
perennial flower of hope.
A second suitor, named John Sawyer,
appeared, and the star SO long buried
in the shadows rose again in the as
cendant. Vows were pledged, and the
confiding widow became again wife.
A child was born, and for q brief peri
cd life partook of the sweetness of
Heaven.
The shadows again fell. Before, the
sorrow was tender-it was dead. Now,
it was hideous-it was living.
From bad to worse, the husband be-
came cruel. His blood was infamed
by drink. Long years of patient, hor-
rible suffering followed-then divorce.
The far West was sought as a well
come refuge.
After some years third husband
sued for the hand of the sad but still
blooming woman and life was again
roseate.
They were married, Mrs. Sawyer be-
coming Mrs. E. NJ. Raymond, and for
q number of years they have been re-
siding in this city. as-
The infant of former years had be-
come graceful, bright-eyed maiden.
A few DAYS since there came to the
door of the happy home on Tenth street

of trouble. He was subdued, respecta-

mer husband. The situation is not
easily described. There are some pict-
ures in life from which the veil should
not be lifted-some heart-throes, the
exposure of which would be desecra-
ton. He had repented of his folly, and
reformed; had embarked in business,
and was now rich.
He piteously pleaded for an opportu-
nifty to see his child. He was rich in
this worlds goods, and would endow
her bountifully.
The request was granted. 1t was a
meeting of spring and winter. Strange
spectacle.

face was wet with the dew of genuine
pity.-St. Paul Globe. .H-

A Baggage-Smasher Can Not Be
Killed.

doc" Glow, as he is known to rail-
road men, but whose right name is AL
bert Glow, is one of twelve through
baggage-men in the employment of the
New York Central & Hudson River
Railroad Company, and his route is
from New York to Buffalo. He has
probably been in more " smash-ups'
than any other railroad man in the
United States, and has seen men killed
alongside of him right and left, but,
with one exception, he has always come
out without receiving an injury of any
account. Twelve years ago he was on
milk train which ran of a switch near
Montrose, Hudson River Railroad. His
car was upset and broken and tramp
was killed. but al Doc" came out of the
train all right. He was on Yonkers
train which ran into a passenger train.
Four cars were smashed and several
persons were hurt, but "Doc'' crawled
out from under a car and helped to
clear the track. He was through bag
gageman on the Pacific express train
which came into collision with an oil
train seven years ago on the New Ham,
burg drawbridge, and another man was
in the car with him. The car, when
the train struck the oil train. turned
over on its side and bumped along over
the trestlework before it came to the
horrible chasm, into which it plunged.
As it lay on its side the door was, of
course, on top, and through it "Doc"
crawled, and, as he reached the open
ing, terrific jolting hurled him on the
ice below, over which the burning kero-
sene from the burst oil cars was flow
ing. but he managed to crawl to safety,
receiving only slight singeing. The
other man was carried down into the
river beneath the draw with the car and
killed, and in all the cars that went
through the bridge" "Doc'' was the only
person saved. Two or three years ago
Clovis train was in a collision near
Greenbush. His baggage-car was torn
to pieces, and he was smashed in with
the baggage, but not a bone was
broken. In this accident two were
killed. A year after another collision
occurred near the same place, and
DOCS" train was again in it. The
baggage-car and express-car were
smashed to flinders, but once more
"Doc" escaped. and again two persons
were killed. Then his car was run into
by a car loaded with lumber at West
Albany, and the lumber was tele-
scoped into the baggage-car, but as it
came in one end "Doc" went out the

As he reflected thus, Robert arrived
at the tavern. He was passing by when
he perceived Mr.. Taylor himself at q
few PAGES distant, and on the other
side his neighbor Hullins, dragging his
wooden leg, and conversing with Harry
Stokes, the carpenter. Harry Stokes
was the wit of the village. and Hope
would not have encountered him be-
fore Hullins for the world. He there
fore took refuge in the tavern.
But the place was not long tenable.
The drinkers did not fail to perceive
the cross, and to rally Hope who grew
angry; the quarrel became violent, and
the innkeeper, fearing some serious re-
suit, turned Robert out of doors.
The latter had left home with the in
tention of examining some work which
had been offered to him in q neighbor-
ing village, but his mind had been so
disturbed by old Fox, Patty Steven,
the blacksmith, the butcher, Peggy
Turton, and the school-boys, that he
resolved to return home thinking that
would be, after all, the most peaceable
place.

now slowly lest he should meet some
one; now in the road, now in the fields,
gliding behind the bushes, climbing the
walls, and stunning glances like g
gipsy who has stolen a chicken from q
farmers poultry yard. At this moment
the white cross was an insupportable
weight.
At last he reached his dwelling, and
this time hoped to find little rest. But
as soon as his wife perceived him she
began to cry out:
- Are you not ashamed to come back
as you went? Five or six neighbors

ran to separate them.
Everybody blamed Robert, who, when
he became calm, understanding that
there was no hope of rest or peace fol
him otherwise, effaced the cross of his
own accord.

This is the season for taking colds,
and the Popular Science Monthly tells
how to prevent them. 1t says the mis-
take is often made of taking great care
to put on extra wraps and coats when
preparing for outdoor exercise. This
is not at all necessary in robust persons.
Sufficient heat to prevent all risk OF
chill is generated in the body by exer-
else. The care should be taken to re-
tain sufficient clothing after exercise,
and when at rest. to prevent the heat
from passing out of the body. Indeed,
persons very often catch chills from
throwing off extra clothing after exer-
else, or from sitting about in garments
the material of which is not adapted to
prevent the radiation of heat from the
body.
