The Cowboys LIZ.

The whirligig of time, writes a cow
boy. from the Indian Territory, has
wrought wonderful change in the oc-
cupation of the fraternity. When
was novice, he says, there was six
months in the year we did nothing but
toast venison over roaring fire in the
snug and roomy dug-out. A feast on
roasted turkey and other equally as
palatable game was an everyday oc-
currence. Should dispute arise as to
whose duty it was to prepare dinner,
the meal was deferred by general con-
sent until hunger drove someone's am
bition up to the standpoint of undertake
ing the job. The Overwhelmingly la
borious duty of half days work in
securing fuel enough to last for mouth
fell upon him who had secured the less
er number of notches faithfully cut in
a blackjack pole for each man as his
winnings at old sledge, which was the
principal amusement as we assembled
at the camp FIRE.
But now the youth who succeeds In
engendering himself In a COW camp
gets wonderfully left. The roundup
which was considered good exercise
and lots of fun Is now merged into
gigantic roundup, followed rapidly by
the calf roundup. But the worst of
all, and something the old-time cowboy
never dreamed of, is retiring to winter
quarters, only to assume the duties of
feeding hay to a thousand head of cat
tie in the face of the furious billiards
which roar over the prairie during the
winter months. At this season of the
year, it was his custom to snooze un-
der shady tree, near the herd, with
his mustang staked close by. Now he
follows the hum of the mowing-ma-
chine. and the setting sun finds him suf.
located with the heat, and almost chok-
ed with hay seed. carefully erecting
haystack six miles away from his bis
cults and Cincinnati Times
Star.

DYSPEPSIA.

seHentary habits, mental worry, nervous
excitement, excess or imprudence In eat
ing or drinking, and various other causes,
induce Constipation followed by general
arrangement OF the liver, kidneys, and
stomach, in which the disorder Of each
organ increases the infrmity of the others.
The immediate results are Lossof Appe-
lite, Nausea, Foul Breath, Heartburn, Flat
ulence, Dizziness, Sick Headaches, failure
of physical and mental yigor, distressing
sense of weight and fulmess in the stomach,
and increased Costiveness, all Of which are
known under one head as Dyspepsia.

She lifted the glittering goblet, and
letting'it suddenly fall to the floor, it
was dashed in thousand pices. Many
fearful eye watched her movement,
and simultaneously every wine-glass

as she looked at the fragments Of crys-
