A FRENCH VICTORY AT ANAM,

Gen De Courcy. commander of the French
in Anam, telegraphs that he has defeated the
Black Flags in an engagement. The enemy
were immensely superior in number, but were
routed with great slaughter. The fighting was
very severe and lasted three days. The Black
Flags and their allies numbered 6 900 men and
many were taken prisoners by the French.
Gen Joumont conducted the operations against
the enemy, which resulted in the capture OF the
strongly fortified town of Thanmai, one of the
last and most formidable centres OF resistance
held by the Black Flags. The French lost
thirteen men killed and wounded.

The Symptoms of HydrOphObia.

The first symptom OF hydropnoDla Is
a sulky disposition. The dog sinks
away under bed or lounge when in the
house, or into the darkest corner of his
kennel, or under an clubhouse, and tries
to escape notice. When called out he
comes unwillingly, and goes back as
soon as possible. He is very nervous,
and frequently rearranges his litter and
skulks about from one corner to another.
His eyes show the change that is coming
on. Dogs sick with any disease are apt
to seek dark corners, but in hydrophobia
they are invariably restless. The next
symptom is temporary hallucinatlon. He
seems to hear something, and jumps up
and runs to the spot, or snaps in the va
cant air as if for fly, or stands In an
attitude of expectation. This symptom
is often overlooked, or, if noticed, is
ignorantly supposed to indicate a return
of health. Another symptom is de-
PRAYED appetite. He ceases to take his
natural food, and swallows bits of wood,
old leather, and all kinds of filth. The
voice of the dog is then changed,
becoming hoarse and lower IN
tone, beginning with a single open bark,
followed by three or four diminishing
howls from the bottom of the throat
The saliva, which at first is abundant
dries down and becomes ropy. The dog
tries to clear it from his throat, and acts
as if he had bone fast in his teeth
MANY people have been fatally bitter
when trying to helpa dog get the i'm
aoinarv bone out. Following this CONF
the paroxysms of fury which causes hin
to fly at everything he meets and deatl
follows from exhaustion if the disease
allowed to run its course.
A common and dangerous error abou
hydrophobia is that the dog cannot ant
will not drink water. The dog drink
frequently until the fatal paroxysms ar
upon him, and even when he is unable t
swallow he will thrust his nose deep int
the water in his fierce desire to drink
, He will often obey his master and re
ceive and give carresses until the las
, stages, and will even submit to punish
ment when liable at any moment to Il
, into an ungovernable fury.

A visaged old ram, with long
wool, was one day browsing in a valley
with a large number of animals, and
after the weather had been duly dis
cussed, he remarked
"Now, just look at this suit Of
clothes. Here's something strictly first
class. You don't pick up raiment like
this on this road. I'm sorry you fellows
can't dress in this style, but it can't be
helped. You see l am stylish gentle
man by nature. My clothes are the
cynosure of all eyes"
The animals passed on without re-
plying. In few days the sheep-shear-
ing took place, and the old ram, along
with the other sheep, was deprived OF
his feecy garments, and made to look
very naked and home!y. Soon after thi;
humiliating experience he met the ami,
mails in whose presence he had boosted
of his fine clothes.

Sweet, sweet, sweet is the season that is COM

Sweet the wayside wild rose and the wild
bees humming;
Sweet the pink azalia in the woods recesses'
Sweet tho nodding barberry buds, wearing
yellow dresses,
Sweet the scarlet columbine climbing up the
lodges,
Sweet the pale anemone in the forest edges
Sweet the rosy apple blooms. sweet the birds
among them,
Sweet the petals in the grass where the winds
have flung them.
Sweet, sweet, sw etare the gardens overflow
ing
With pinks and yellow marigolds, and
mignonette a-bowing,
With four o'clocl1s and London-pride, and
pretty pansy faces,
With honeysuckle by the wall, and roses in
all places;
And sweet the happy children who come
from days of duty
To find the fair earth all a-bloom, place OF
perfect beauty;
Books thrown away, they laugh and play
with sun and sweet winds blowing,
A rose blooms out on every cheek, and pink
in the lips are growing.
Sweet the breeze blown pastures with violet
running over;
Sweet the meadows stretching wide crowded
with white clover;
Sweet the thickets starred with flowers ant
flushed with growing berries,
And pretty dinners set for birds of rose-hip
and wild cherries;
Sweet the corners dim and deep where float
ing boughs are meeting,
And little lovers come and go with songs o
happy greeting;
Sweet the fronds of fairy fern in hiddde
hooks unfolding;
Sweet the thoughts in loving hearts thes
lovely things beholding.

grace; "don't be discouraged, old fell

"The Major seems to be stripped for a

the Ram, in a tone of offended dignity.
