against the Kh6dive's Government, led to
Wolseley being again entrusted with the
command of British army. He was given
full command of the land forces, with or
ders to operate jointly with Admiral Sey
mour of the navy. Ho sailed on August 2,
1882, with the Horse Gnards, ssarriving at
Alexandria on August "a, two days after
Arabi had been declared rebel by the Sui
tan, and at once issued proclamation de-
claring Engiand's sole object to be the re.
storing of peace to Egypt. On Wednesday,
September ~, the decisive battle of Tel-et-
Kebir was fought, resulting in the complete
rout of the Egyptian rebels. On the 14th
of September General Wolseley entered
Cairo, Arab Bey surrendered, and the rebell-
ion was practically at an end. The Brit
ish Parliament rewarded Wolseley with
grant of 900 for his services, and by the
Queen he was created Baron Wolseley of
Cairo and of Wolseley in the county of
Stafford. After receiving these fattering
honors he lived i'll their quiet enjoyment,
until the rescue of General Gordon from
Khartoum was entrusted to him.
Opinions vary greatly as to Wolseley's s
capabilities as soldier. "Nothing sue
ceeds like success" however. and there can
be no question as to his preeminent good
fortune.
1t is scarcely necessary to explain, in view of
the distressing news that has come from the
seat of war in London within the past few
days, that the foregoing biographical sketch
was written before the fall of Khartoum and
the assassination of Gen Gordon were known
to have occurred.

On an elegant Summers morning.

Bright smiles her face adorning
And she look so tidy and neat.
Her figure so plump and trim,
No girl half so pretty and sweet
Had ever appeared to him.
Said Pat: Your eyes are 40 blue
And your lips SO temptlngly red,
They're the purtiest ever knew
And belong to the colleen I'd we'd
s'Ahi darlin'. if it wasn't this baste
That's pullin' my poor arms apart,
They would tenderly stheal round your waist,
And ourself be pressed to my heart.

REST FOR HEADACHEs-Dr. Day says in
a late lecture: whatever be the plan Of
treatment decided npon, rest is The princi-
pie to incu!cate in very severe headache.
Rest, which the busy man and anxious
mother cannot obtain so long as they can
manage to keep about, is one of tho first
remedies for every headache, and we should
never cease to enforce 1t. The brain, when
excited, as much needs quiet and repose as
a fractured limb or al lUdamed eye; it is
obvious that the chances of shortening the
seizure and arresting The pain will depend
on our power to have this carried out act
ually. 1t is a practical lesson, to keep
steadily in view, that there may Turk behind
a simple headache some lesson of unknown
magnitude, which may remain stationary
if auietude can be maintained. There is
point worth attending to in the treatment
of all headaches See that the head is ele
waited at night, and the pillow hard, for, if
il be soft, the head sinks into it and be.
comes hot, which with some people is
enough to provoke an attack in the morn
ing if sleep has been long aud heavy"
