Soldiers on the March.

''The funniest thing in the business, :"
said one armed stalwart, sis to see q
lot of onelegged fellows on a march.
Not long ago at a regimental reunion a
squad of veterans, each of whom had
lost leg, determined to march in the
procession. They had all sorts of appli-
anceS, and each one was proud of his
own substitute for the leg that nature
had given him. When the band struck
up one of the old marching tunes we
were on le"el ground, and all these
famed veterans moved off with as state
ly a step as if they had never been
wounded. rejOicea greatly in the
thought that they would demonstrate
that cork legs and wooden stubs an
swered all the purposes of soldering.
But there came a change in the eleva.
ton of the street, and my one legged
squad were in disorder at once. In 90
ing up the incline more than half Il e
wooden or cork appliances got out OF
order, and the spectacle of these old
fellows trying to keep time was ludi,
crOus enough to make any man laugh
and pitiful enough to make most peo-
pie cry, but they joked and laughed
dropped out for minute, ad iusted
their wooden legs, and were again in
ranks. They really believed that they
could march as well as anybody could,
and | noticed that most of the older
boys, now gray-headed and rheumatic,
believe that they could march fifteen OF
twenty miles at a stretch without
fatigue. At all events whenever occa
sion offers they attempt an exploit OF
the kind and make believe that the
sickness that followed is caused by the
weather. y Chicago Inter- Ocean.

Mrs. Joe Emmet's Dogs.

The st. Louis Republican says
Speaking of dog shows" said Mr.. P
B. Rhoads, II guess that Mr. and Mrs
Joe Emmett carry with them trio of
the finest breeds in This country. OF
course you remember Mr.. Emmet's
great st. Bernard, Hector He is a fine
dog, but Mrs. Emmet's pets surpass the
record in that line. When the family
were last in England they bought from
Mrs. Mary Ann Troughear of Bury
small Yorkshire terrier, which now
weighs but five pounds and is small
enough to be carried about in a glass
case no larger than cigar box. This
dog, called Champion COnqueror, has
hair eight inches long, softer than
camel's-hair brush, which is usually
parted on the forehead and tied back
behind his ear with a ribbon, in or
der to enable him to see. The hair on
the body is of genuine silver and
blush tint, and trails on the ground
His ears are of dark tan-color, his
forehead a light blond, with shades of
gold, as are also his legs; the muzzle
and beard are rich tan, while the hair
around his nose and lips is black, and
his eyes arc very dark hazel The dog
carried off fifty-eight first prizes and
three champion prizes, such as gold and
silver cups, medals and money, and was
finally entered for the challenge prize,
the highest of all, which he easily Won.
Then Mr.. Emmett purchased the dog for
his wife. paying 81, $50 for him. Mrs.
Emmett has another pet dog, no larger
thln a kitten, which cost $500 on the
West India docks in London. This one
is japanese spaniel pug called Ching
Ching. He weighs SIX pounds and is
carried about in a small leather satchel
with wire front to it. 1t is said that
in Japan these dogs are only owned by
royalty, but ng-Ching was stolen by
sailor and carried to England He is
beautiful little animal and is always
very playful.

Who Is He?

81 want to know if you can help me
to find out who am" These were the
words with which stranger addressed
Captain Heinzman at Castle Garden,
New York. Behind the words was. of
course, an odd story.
Eighteen years ago the speaker and his
brother were kidnapped in Italy. He
was then only six years old. He was
virtually sold to New York padronne
who dealt in children. He was flogged
into some knowledge of the violin, and
then sent into the street to play and
beg. After tramping all day, if he
brought too little back to the keeper of
the den in which l. lived he was logged
again.
At last he made his escape, and now
returns to New York, man of twenty
four, saying II want to know if you
can help me to find out who am."

For a long time we steadily refused to pub
fish testimonials, believing that, in the opinion
of the public generally, the great majority
were manufactured to order by unprincipled
parties as a means of disposing Of their worth
less preparations.
That this view of the case is to a certain ex-
tent true, there can be no doubt.
At last, several years ago, we came to the
conclusion that every intelligent person can
readily discriminate between spurious and
bona fide testimonials, and determined to use
as advertisements few of the many hum
dreds of unsolicited certificates in our posses
sion.
| In doing this we published them as nearly as
| possible in the exact language used by our cor
| respondents, only changing the phraseology, in
smaller space than they would otherwise
occupy, but without in the least exaggerating
or destroying the meaning OF the writers;

| was correct one-that letter recommend

| with the people.
The original Of every testimonial published

FARMING IN ENGLAND.
A Few illustrations ofthe Manner In which
1t Pays.

A tenant farmer in North Lincoln
shire, who ''has the credit of being an
excellent manager, good man of bus
mess, and one of the best practical au-
thorities on farming in his nelghbor-
hood" submits his balance sheets for
the last ten years. He holds $50 acres,
including 60 acres of poor pasture. All
his stock is bred on the farm. He keeps
IA cows, and has a flock of 200 breed
ing ewes. For ten years he has spent
an annual average Of 1888 per acre in
buying food for cattle and artificial
manures, and So. so per acre for manual
labor. The rent, rates and taxes have
averaged S.. per acre. 1t is not an ex-
pensive farm, as such farms go, and
it has been well managed. Neverthe-
less, the farmer has not a tarthlng to
show for his ten years work, and for
the year 1885 he is out of pocket more
than 81, 300. For the ten years ending
with 1884 his average annual expenses,
including interest at per cent. on
capital of $40, 900, were about S12, 3S5,
and in 1885 his expenses were 81, 335:
On the other hand, his average annual
receipts for the ten years were Sl2, 800,
and for 1885 his receipts were only SO,
02O, showing an average annual loss OF
$25 for the ten years and loss of ST.
315 for 1885. The average annual ex-
pense for ftent, rates and taxes for the
ten years was So, 945, and for 1885 the
expense on this account was 81, $50. If
he had no rent to pay there would have
been profits, but they would have been
small.
A statement submitted by farmer
who holds 600 acres in Berkshire,
lightly rented and well ventilated,
shows that the excess of expendi
lures over receipts was 81, 345 in 1888,
$2,s15 in 1884, and So, 9S5 in 1885. The
receipts in 1885 were $44, 335, and the
expenditures were 500, 22O, about $34, 900
being set aside on both sides of the ac-
count for valuation of live and dead
stock, seeds, tillage, &C. The rent was
1905 year, so that the farmer would
have been out of pocket if he had paid
nothing to his landlord. These farmers
are said to be fair examples and not ex,
ceptlons to the general rule.

Now Is tho Time
To take Hoods Sarsaparilla, the popular spring
medicine and blood purifier. WhyP
Because the body is now more susceptible to
the beneficial effects of this peculiar medicine
than at any other season.
Becau Sc the impurities in the blood should
be expelled and that tired feeling overcome
before the additional facilitating effects Of
warm weather are felt
Because the thousands of people who have
tried it pronounce Hoods Sarsaparilla the
very best medicine to take in the spring.
Because delays are dangerous. A dollar spent
for this peculiar medicine now may prevent ill
Because, as now is the time when you may
derive the greatest good, it is certainly econo-
my to take Hoods Sarsaparilla now.
Do Not be Imposed Upon
The great and increasing popularity of Hoods
sarsaparilla has led some unprincipled men to
use 1t bait to draw customers to their stores,
and then by unfair representations endeavor
to sell other kinds. 1t is unnecessary for us 10
caution those who have tried Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla and know its peculiar merit But to those
who have never taken it we say, Don't be inn
posed upon. Insist upon having Hoods Sarsa-
parilla and no other. The men who claim that
their preparations are "as good as Hoods" by
so doing admit that Hood Is is the standard, and
possesses peculiar merit which they try in vain
to reach.
