a DREAM OF FAIR WOMEN. -Tenny-
son, in his exquisite poem, dreams of a
long procession of lovely women of
ages past. This is all very well, but
the laureate would have done the world
a greater service if he had only told the
women of the present how they could
improve their health and enhance
their charms. This he might easily
have done by recommending the use
of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
Health is the best friend of beauty,
and the innumerable ills to which
women are peculiarly subject its worst
enemies. Long experience has proven
that the health of womankind and the
" Favorite Prescription " walk hand in
hand and are inseparable. 1t is the
only medicine for women sold by all
druggists under positive guarantee
from the manufacturers that it will
give satisfaction in every case, OF
money will be refunded. This guar
antee has been printed on the bottle
wrapper and faithfully carried out for
many years.

How an Alligator Dimes.

1t is a southern writer who compares
an alligator's throat to an animated
sewer. Everything, says this cor
respondent, which lodges in the open
mouth goes down. He is a lazy dog,
and instead of hunting for something
to eat he lets his victuals hunt for
him-that is, he lies with his great
mouth open, apparently dead, like the
'possum. Soon a beetle crawls into it.,
then fly, then a gnat and colony of
mosquitoes. The alligator doesn't close
his mouth yet. He is waiting for a
whole drove of things. He does his
eating by wholesale. A little later a
lizard will cool himself under the shade
of the upper jaw. Then a few frogs
will hop up to catch the mosquitoes.
Then more mosquitoes and gnats will
alight on the frog. Finally a whole
village of insects and reptiles will settle
down for an afternoon picnic. Then
all at once there is an earthquake. The
big jaw falls, the alligator blinks one
eye, gulps down the whole menagerie
and opens the great front door again
for more visitors american angler.

General Garfleld's Dog.

In the summer of 1880, when the
first delegation of enthusiastic politi-
clans came trooping up from the Men
tor station through the lane that led to
Lawnfield," in order to congratulate
General James A. Garfield on his
nomination for the presidency, there
was one member of the Garfield house
hold who met the well-meaning but
noisy strangers with an air of astonish-
ment and disapproval, and, as they
neared the house, disputed further APP
proach with menacing voice. This was
"Veto," General Garfield's big New
foundland dog, and not until his mas
ter had called to him that it was O. all
right" and that he must be quiet, did
he cease hostile demonstrations. After
that whenever delegations came-and
they were of daily occurrence-Veto
walked around among the visitors,
looking grave and sometimes uneasy,
but usually peaceful. General Gar
field was very fond of large, noble
looking dogs. Veto was puppy when
given to him, but in two years. time
had grown to be an immense fellow
and devotcdly attached to his master.
He was named in honor of President
Hayes veto of certain bill in the
spring of 1879. The bill was one for
abolishng the office of marshal at
elections. 1t did not meet with the
presidents approval, and he returned
| it to congress unsigned-an action
which greatly pleased General Garfield
and suggested the name for his dog.
Although quiet as he had been hidden

| lies invasion of the Mentor farm. He
was dog of great dignity and could
not but feel resentment at the familiar
ity of the strangers who, on the strength
of their political prominence, overran
his masters fields, spoiled fruit-trees,
peered into the barns and poultry-yard
and were altogether overcurious and
intrusive. He had been told that it was
call right" but these actions by day
and the torchlights and hurrahing by
night wore on his spirits and temper.
This evident unfitness for public life
caused final separation from his be-
loved master, for when, in the follow
ing spring, the family moved to Wash
ington to begin residence at the White
House, they thought it was not best to
take Veto with them, so he was left be-
hind in Mentor. Poor fellow! all his
doubts and fears for the safety and
peace of him he loved and guarded
were indeed well-founded. That first
invasion of Lawnfeld was but the be-
ginning of what was to end in great
calamity and bitter sorrow. Veto
never saw his master again.-Gertrudt

Seletteo Storm.
Summertime.

The fragrance of the wild rose fills
with odorous breath the summer air,
And song of robin clearly trills
Along the dusty thoroughfare.
The grassy lane, with clover sweet,
That leads beyond the naples shade,
Invites the wanderers lingering feet
Along the path the herd have made
The slope wherein the white lambs Craze
Is frightened by the morning sun
That DER the landscape softly plays
And gilds the day but just begun.
The rustic bridge across the stream
Looks picture-like. There oft is heard
The heavy trampling of a team
Or the light carol of a bird.
All nature throbs with its delights,
And that has speech which once seemed dumb
Sweet harmony the ear invites,
From whispering grass to insects hum
