Mexican Bun Fighter. A,,on,s,,.-

One or two of the bnlls after haNlhg been unsuccessfully worried and eoaded without working them mn to inc proper lighting point, had been ienomini ously driven out of the arena and a new one, iuu of fight and Esirly believing w'th rage, had just been turned into the Amphltheatre, when Texan cowbov yybo was present announced ths. for the honor ana glory of Texas he would ride tbe bull Wlth ais legs tied around the animals neck and his face to the tail, if they would iirst tsEow the bull so that he could get ms legs properly around and underneath the animals neck
 he was ct once taken at his word, and the mounte1 Mexican bull fighters soon had the animal lassoed and thrown. The cowooy then had himself fixed in the proper position, and the now perfectly iurlous bull was turned loose. To the wonder and astonishment and the intense oehgnt or the audience, the animal was unable to shake the daring cowbow oil, who not only held on and kept his peril Ous seat. but after some wild plunges succeeded by some means in manipulating the beasts horns and head in such n man ner that he was thrown. The Mexican performers rushed at once to the strug- gling mass, and in a twinkling had the Texan united and released. It was & wonderful piece of daring and dare devil try, and exceeded anything done by the Mexicans.-COr. Globe Democrat.

HeIning fhe Right Side.

To help the right side is not only com mendsble in 8 general point Of view, but is judicious and prudent when that help is enlisted in behalf of the right side or the body, just over the lower ribs m the region Of the liver, The most efficient beip is afforded by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. an anti-b bilious medicine of ln- comparable efficacy. lnaction Of the liver is accompanied by constipation, sick headache, furred tongue, nausea, oocasIonal vertigo, sn unpleasant breath, yellowness of the skin and bsll of the eye. The author of these symptoms, liver complaint. routed by the Bitters is .ncompsnled by them in its flight. Fever and sgua, which always involves the liver, dyspepsia. rheumatism, debility and kidney troubles are all malsdies to the early relief and final cure Of which this standard medicine IS adapted. Don't use If by fits and starts, but systematic ally. that its full effects may result in perfect restoration of health.

Hypocrisy of a Love Token.

''I have become hopeless cynic from my thirteen years experience Rs q ieweler," said the foreman of leading firm. II have learned that so much is tinsel that shines as gold that can only look OF ;he worlds splendor as clinqusnt, hollow sham. Even when the genuine g.ittering gold, plucked from the bowels of rich PoiOsi and set with gems of purest ray serene, adOTns fair throat, or rounded arm, or tapering finger, it only produces a sentiment of scorn for the hypocrisy of human nature.
 Let me illustrate: It has been for some time a favorite fad with young men in society when one becomes engaged to pre- sent his fancee with a jeweled bracelet, which the jeweler rivets on the wrist so that it cannot be slipped of. This is sup posed 10 be a token of the eternal bondage Of the wearer 10 the donor and a perpetual reminder of fidelity. But in day or two the young lady receives 8 note from the Jeweler requesting her tO call. When she does so she is shown a secret spring, whereby she can put aside the bond at will. " And l have observed" added the jeweler, that although the fair lady protests against making use of the spring she is delighted to find the secret Of it. 'i-- Philadelphia Press.

RATTLE FOR A GIRL.
An Extraordinary Scheme for
 Raising a Stake.

Some people will, perhaps, hardly be- lieve It, bat it is fact that sn old Me1i- can oh the Sonora side of the line is now trying to dispose of his daughter, aged
 fifteen, by railing her of. His arrange ment IS 10 sell thirty tickets at one dol lar each, and he promises to faithfully deliver the girl to the winner and that he may do as he sees it with her. Accom- panied by the girl the other day he cal led upon a party of carpenters st work on a building and endesvored to sell them tickets. He spoke of her good and attractive points just as a horse dealer would dilate upon the merits Of horse he were endesvorng to sell. The old man laid eloquent stress upon the girls shape, voluptuOusness and excellent health, and WAS profuss aud emphatic in asserting her chastity, offering to allow a physicians examlnBtion to be made. He also dwelt at considerable lsug gth up- on her ability 10 cook, wash and iron, and to do all the work usually devolvins upon & housewife. While the father was expatisting so earnestly upon her fine appearance and wifely quslIfica,Ions the Rlrl manifested considerable shyDess and appeared greatly embarrassed. One of the carpenters said to her: Suppose should buy 8 ticket and prove 70 be the lucky man, what would you do2" The girl hung her head and, while the color arose to her cheeks, replied tbat she wonld go with him and do the best she could at housekeeping for him. or course, none nf these gentlemen bought tickets, but all iel, like making the old man trot around post for a while.
 This is not an isolated case Oi that character which has occurred here. Once, not very many months ago, a Mexicsn woman sold her dan yhter, sixteen years old, to a Chinese merchant for SIS. The Chinsmsn kept the girl until he became tired of her and then sent her home for her parents to care for.

PhotographIng tn. Tomb of Rame.e.

Not ray of sunshine ever entered the mysterious apartment which holds it. Magnesium light was employed to secure it's photograph. Eight Bedouins wers posted inside and around it, with an up- lifted taper of burning magnesium in each hand. Three cameras, large and small, were focused, in order to increase the chances of success. A wilder, more weird sight never witnessed. The dark skins of the Arabs, with their white robes shining in the brilliant light; their excited yels; their stampeding whenever e bit of hot oxide chanced to fall upon their bare shoulders or feet, and the intense glare of the burning metal, all gave the scene an internal realism which needed no fanciful Salvador Rosa to paint it or Dante tO make it more horrible. More than once, with the fear of failure staring me in the face, grappled with my dusky helpers as they fled from the chamber. Although half stified by the fumes of the burning metal, again and again forced them back to their posts. At last Ameri- can magnesium and the Yankee camera were victorious and brought three pictures of the coffer out to the light, so that all might guess what it is.-January Sorib- nerfs

Gen. Grant. son.in-Lau.

''Sartoris told me how he asked Gen. Grant for the young lady's lNellie's) hand. With all the awe of an Englishman for the head of a state he was invited to din ner at the White House, knowing what was expected of him. After dinner the president led the way ro the billiard room and offered him a cigar. Then said Sartoris, I knew my time had come. I waited and hoped the president would help me, but not word did he say He sat silent, looking at me. I hesitated and fidgeted and coughed and thought would sink through the floor. Finally, l ex- claimed in desperation: MT. President, l want to marry your daughter."' l. took a bold man to say that to Gen. Grant, but doubtless the boldneSs recom- mended him, for Sartoris carried of the prize. .'-Bsdeau's Memoirs.

Novel Way of AdrertIsInr.

'T saw a funny sight the other day, |" said gentleman in the habit of observing things pretty closely. 'It was on North Broad street, on Sunday afternoon Three dogs of mongrel breeds, and of different sizes and variety, were gamboling about the street in the utmost good humOr and seemed to be identified with a carriage containing a family party that had been out for a pleasure ride. The dogs raced each other playfully, and seemed to be carrying little knapsacks on their backs attached to a comfortable cover that clothed them from the neck to the tail. On looking closely found printed on the covers the name of brand of cigar, and came to the conclusion that the maker must be the occupant of the carriage and was utilizing his pets to advertise his wares. The dogs seemed to enjoy it as much as he did. But it was poor way of advertising, nevertheless. ."-Philadel- phia Call

yalu. ofa Hobby.

If we ever became vindictive toward 8 fellow man, and desired to punish him, we would deprive him of his hobby; with out that he would be lonesome in a crowd, and crowded in a wilderness, and would seek what he had lost and find it not. The business man with hobby that he rides is a happy man; but if the hobby rides him, the business will suffer sooner or later The man without a hobby will be found in the club room, the billiard room, or card room. The lobbyist, with his loft of pigeons, his bird skins or eggs, bugs or beetles, takes more substantial happiness than all the members of the highest toned club in a city combined Besides that, home and Dame Nature is all the world to him and all the heaven he ever aspires to.-Wade's Fibre.

The Suddenly Rich.

Iwonder what people do with "wind falls" They are always happening. In a single newspaper of this weeks date there are recorded no less than three of them. A workman suddenly becomes possessed of e100, coo, private soldier of e40,O00, psuper in a workhOuse of sev- eral thousand pounds. How the question, "What shall I do with ity' must press upon their attention. My own impression is, that in cases where the very poor people become suddenly very rich, they do not experience so much difficulty in spending their money as persons of mod crate means who have become million aires; because it is generally spent for them. They are instantly translated to another sphere, and fall into the hands of more or less interested sdvisers.-Jsnaes Pawn.
