Resemb,auces I'm Hunehb.ok..

Ihave practiced medicine and surgery
for forty years, and / do not recall q
disease or case of any particular kind
that has not come under my observation.
But one thing that have made sort OF
study in the way of close observation is
the striking resemblance to each other of
what is commonly called the hnnchback.
1t does not take close observer to see
that they all look alike in the face, more
SO even than If they were full brothers.
There is something strange about this re-
semblance, yet it is all due to that phys
ical condition. About 80 out of 100 are
so near alike that If the 100 were stand
ing In row, with their heads poked
through slits in a sheet, you could not
pick out your brother IL you had one
who was q hunchback. Few people
would notice this remarkable fact, but II
they do they will find how singularly
true it is.-Physician in Globe Democrat.

Morb,a,x Melancholy Verses.

Every editor who has to deal with
purely literary contributions will bear
witress that nine-tenths of the verses
offered by young writers nowadays are
of this morbidly melancholy class. To
look over the manuscripts in a single
mornings mail would lead one to sup
pose a sort Of moral pestilence had
jumped the quarantine the night before
and descended upon America, depicting
its victims lives of all that was fresh,
youthful, hopeful, and pessimizing them,
as it were, beyond cure. 1t is Ach! Ach!
Ach! over and over again, every trans
lator giving his own version and applica-
ton. Poems and stories relating to
Christmas and Thanksgiving with d true
ring of gladness and good cheer in them
are rare; while autumn leaves, par
ticularly the ''sear" variety, are as popu-
Lar mediums for the transmission Of woes
as were the Sibyls of old.
There is real trouble enough in the
world, pitiful God knows. Let us have
words of sympathy, of grave, sweet codn-
sci in our sorrow, you pen wielders
whom we admit to our inmost selves at
times when no living presence could be
borne. Tell us, if you will, Of your own
sad experiences, and how you found con-
ISOLATION in them; remind us, and we shall
be grateful, that life is q solemn, earnest
thing, by no means to be laughed at or
lightly tripped through; but do not call
upon us to sh,sdder over vaguely impend-
ing terrors; do not scrape from your
palette the living colors of crimson petal,
and golden maple bough, and the chang
ing sheen of the rainbow, bidding us sol
ace ourselves with mist and ashes of
roses. 1t is the feet of him that bringeth
good tidings that are beautiful upon the
mountains; he who publisheth peace is
the true benefactor of his fellow men,

A Stab in the Dark

Sometimes fails OF mnrderous intent
The insi6ous and dastardly attacks
made upon the reputation of Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters by persons who
seek to paha OFT cheae goods and
fiery tonics as identical with it, or
"the same thing under another name,
or "equally as good" ia most instan-
ces react dissstrously upon the un-
principled traders upon popular cred
nifty who attempt them, converting
their speculations into ruinous fail
ures. The Bitters is pure, whole
some and thorough medicine, adapt
ed to the total cure and prevention
Of fever and ague, bilious renitent,
dyspepsia, constipation, biiliousness,
debility, nervousness and kidney
troubles. Its every ingredient, un
like those in the limitations of it, is Of
an ascertained standard of excellence
and while they, by reason of their
fiery properties, react injuriously
upon the brain, and nervous system
of both those organs it is a sedative
and an ivigorant. Refuse all these
harmful limitations.

Customs of the Albaniaus.

Among the Albaniansexist bitter feuds
that have been handed down from gener-
alton to generation, and when men meet
OF those two families there is bound to be a
fight that will last until one or the other
is dead or disabled, and these feuds often
have their rise an the quarrels of little
children, or women over the water foun-
tain. They have q code of unwritten
laws, which govern their intercourse
with each other when enemies and they
never deviate under any provocation. If
their worst enemy goes into tavern,
cabaret or cafe, and sits down beside an
other man, they regard him as under the
protection os that man, and in their eyes
it would be making him commit an un-
pardonable breach of hospitality to attack
one under his protection. Also, if they hap
pen by any means to touch the hand of the
man they wish to kin he is henceforth a
friend instead OF an enemy, and if ever
you or yours have eaten in company with
an enemy he is obliged to forget his
ennity and be a friend thenceforward,
and being friends among the AlbanianS
means being more than brothers.
An Albanian will never stab man in
the back nor shoot from an ambush. If
Inc cannot fight fair and square, he
doesn't want to fight. He will not leave
q sicksor suffering animal by the road
side; she will pick up crust of bread
wherever he sees il, and pray for the
wicked person who made light OF such q
perfect gift, and placing it up on some
high place he wlll deal tenderly with all
weaker than he; he will not drink water
standing up, for fear of appearing to
despise that great blessing, and he will
court maiden as love lorn as any other
man, in spite of his warlike nature.

OF all the birds of Florida there is one
that viii afford an idler lots of amuse-
ment If he will spend an occasional hour
watching closely. It is the shrike or
butcher bird. A few days ago was Ia
an orange grove few rods from the
house, where an old negro, with the
assistance of mule, was plowing and d
butcher bird was flying from tree to tree,
following up the newly plowed furrow,
looking for insects. Every few minutes
he would go to pick up beetle or insect,
and for some time he simply swallowed
his victim.
After a little he seemed to have enough
to eat, and just then little flock of larks
were seen running along in the newly
turned furrow, at times almost touching
the old negro's heels. Now and then
they would come across an insect
too large for them to easily manage,
and then would begin little
scuffle. Then the butcher bird would
swoop down in the center of the little
flock, snatch up the insect and fly off
with it before the larks knew what had
happened. The butcher bird had eaten
all he wanted, and SO, with the beetle in
his beaE, he flew to the nearest orange
tree, and, selecting long. sharp thorn,
he impaled the insect upon it.
Iwatched this bird put at least ten in
scots 'on different thorns. During an
hour, besides numerous large insects, the
butcher bird captured two snakes, the
largest of which was two feet long and
very lively. These snakes, although they
squirmed and twisted, were taken with
difficulty to an orange tree and, after
good bit of hard augging, they were left
with thorn through their bodies. When
the butcher bird is not looking for food
'or for victims to stick on thoras, he is
generally looking for other birds for the
purpose of fighting them, and so he keeps
busy from daylight till dark.-The Nat
uralist. y

Few Cook Stoves in Manitoba.

In the Northern section of Manitgba,
which is remote from any railroad, one
rarely seesn cook stove; the box stove
and open fireplace reign supreme. Fancy
cooking is'therefore out of the question,
but to compensate for that we get a
bountiful supply of venison and small
game and our unrivaled Manitoba white
fish," which can be cooked by simple
methods.
For bread, when we can obtain yeast,
we cook it in q bake kettle "a shallow
kettle with close fitting id), which we
place In the hot sand of the fireplace and
cover with Goals and allow lit to remain
for one hour, when the bread turns out
beautifully Drowned, perfectly cooked,
and as light as feather. But in winter
the cold is so intense that it is hard
matter to prevent the sponge from get
ting chilled or frozen when rising over
night. Some abandon yeast bread for
bannocks or gilettes, the -'thalf breed'
bread, made of flour, salt and
warm water, with generally a
little grease added, and this makes a
good, wholesome, palatable bread. espe-
cially good for travelling with, as it is
Slls1J W tlidW stb Duo CdLlJ llTe anu very
satisfying. The method of making it is
as follows: Use warm water, in which
dissolve grease, saya piece the size of a
walnut to one pound of -four; knead
thoroughly, adding -four, until the sponge
is fairly dry, but not too dry; then roll
cat into cakes about half an inch thick
and bake; if in an oven, not too quick q
one; for an open fire we pat the cake in
a frying pan and turn until stiff, and
then prop it UP before the fire and turn
regularly until cooked. For baking ON
top of a box stDve, the cake must be
rolled thinner and requires constant at
tention to prevent burning, and forcibly
reminds one of the story of king Alfred
and the Cakes.''
