driver on the Northwestern coach en- route
from Deadwood to Sturgis a few days ago,
was struck or the head by a %5O-pound

Dyspepsia

Makes many lives miserable, and often leads to self
destruction. Distress after eating, sick headache,
heartburn. sour stomach, mental depressio n, ETC.,
are caused by this very common and increasing dis.
ease. Hoods sarsaparilla tones the stomach, creates
an appetite. promotes healthy digestion, relieves sick
headache. clears the mind, and cures the most obs:in-
ate cases Of dyspepsia. Read the following:
II have been troubled with dyspepsia. I had but
little appetite, and what I did eat distressed me, or did
me little good. In an hour after eating I would expo

Land Dunes

A travelling dune is stopped by no
obstacles. With the irresistibility of
an element only slower than water or
fire it presses forward, burying field and
wood and even whole villages. The
spires of church towers may still be
seen projecting out of the sandy sea of
Brittany, testifying to the presence OF
former dwelling-places there. The
whole northern point of Jutland has
been given up by man to the advancing
sand.
In the seventeenth century an old
churchyard was found, over which
dune had taken its course on the Cour-
land lOwlands north of Kranz. A
sandhill that separated the hamlet
Sarkan from the parish village Rositte,
and which had to be crossed by the
pastor. has since then disappeared in
the gulf. Great dunes now cover the
village of Lattenwalde, which was so
laid waste during the seven-years' war
by plundering, quartering. of the Rus
slams, infectious diseases, and fire that
the sand had only a heap of ruins to
cover up. The village of Kunzen,
with its church and seventeen home
steads, was ruined in the same way in
the course of the last and the beginning
of the present century; and now the
dune, continuing its journey, has per-
mitted the skulls and skeletons of the
former church-yard on the west side to
be again exposed
The village of PillROppen has had q
remarkable fate. The inhabitants left
the place about the middle of the last
century and founded New Pillkoppen
about mile away. Then the dune
went on in an unanticipated course,
and old PillkOppen has risen anew
since the third decade of the present
century; but the sand is already again
Il foot high in the potato garden of the
new school house.
A fine wood near SchwarZort has
been almost Systematically destroyed
by dune advancing toward the south
east. 1t was composed of primitive
oaks, lindenS, and frs, and was in the
year 1900 above five kilOmeters long,
while now the dune has hardly left q
kilometer and a half of it.
Schumann says of this wood that sin
about ten years after the tree has gone
into the southern side of the moving
dune it energies again from the north
side. But the bOughS, which have
been dried out and wiIhered up dur
ing the interval, are broken, ground
up, and reduced to atoms as soon as
the sand has left them. The same Oc-
ours later to the rotted stems. Few of
these trees show more than an inch
over the surface of the sand. and it is
only the thicker and hardier trunks
that can maintain themselves so as to
project from two to five meters over
the diminished dune. With most of
them the sap-wood disappears down to
the surface, the bark with all, which,
however, is still present beneath Free
quently the bark alone is left, while
| the wood has rotted away"

Eating Singed Flesh.

went into one of the stone-built re-
cesses, where several of our Tartars
were crouching around small grass
root fire, and was considerably edited
by watching them cooking and dis
patching their morning repast. To
begin with, very dirty copper vessel
was put on the fire and filled with
some green weed-like nettles, barley,
flour, and water. While one of the
men stirred this pottage round and
round with a wooden ladle another
produced some raw meat-a bit of the
dog had shot This he proceeded to
tear up into small strips and throw
them on the fire, every now and then
popping a raw lump in his mouth aud
masticating it with the greatest gusto.
Even the bits on the fire were quickly
disposed of after being merely slnged.
As soon as the pottage was considered
ready it was ladled out into little
wooden cups like the whisky ''quaighs"
of the highlands. After being replen-
ished again and again until the pot
was emptied the cups were carefully
licked clean and re-deposited where
they had heen before the meal. An
other course of flesh was about to be
partaken of after the manner of the
first, but regard for my appetite for
breakfast prevented my waiting to see
the performance. These hardy Tar
tars are quite independent of any other
dishes beyond their little wooden
bowls. In these they mix their suttOo
(meal made from barley with a little
water and salt and make an expeditions
repast of it whenever they feel hungry.
Indeed this kind of uncooked porridge
seems to be their staple food.-BIack-

Geographical Influence of High
Mountains.

A well-knOwn consequence OF the
physical properties of the air is the
gradual reduction of temperature OBJ
served in ascending mountains. This,
amounting to l degree for about 800
feet of elevation, gradually produces a
change of conditions similar to that
caused by passing from the equator to-
ward the poles, and at the greatest ele-
vations an arctic climate is established
even under a tropical sun. Among the
sublimest sights furnished by nature
are the great ranges of mountains
which traverse or approach the tropics:
Rising into the regions of perpetual
snow, they discharge important func-
tons in the economy of the globe. BY
the intrusion of the solid terrestrial
surface into the upper part of the
atmosphere, the low temperature there,
which otherwise could have produced
no effect on the earth, is brought into
active operation. Great rivers spring
from the melting fields of snow and ice
that crown the mountain SUBMITS,
and, swollen by the copious condensa-
ton of rain on their slopes, flow down
the plains below, which are fertiliZed
by their perennial waters,-Poputar

Cocoanut Culture in Florida.

1t is probable that the cultiva-
ton of the cocoanut for profit will al
ways, in Florida, be confined to the
region on the Keys and mainland south
of the CaloOsahatchie river, though the
palm will continue to be grown for its
great beauty, or a chance crop OF nuts,
in protected spots, even as far north
as the latitude of Tampa and Cape
Canaveral. The cOcoanuts produced
in Florida are q tritie smaller than those
of the tropics, and are not considered
so valuable for seed, hence most of
those used for planting are procured
from Central America, more especially
from the Bay Islands (Utilla, Bonaco,
and Ruatan) and mainland of Hon.
duras. The nuts that have not sprOut-
ed on the voyage are sometimes plant
ed in nursery beds and transplanted
when year or eighteen months old.
Only small per cent. fail to germin-
ate, though sometimes the sprouts are
year or more in appearing. The
distance apart at which they are plant
ed varies from fifteen to twenty-five
feet; twenty feet is the usual distance.
The only cultivation given on the Keys
is the occasional cutting of the weeds
and underground in spring and fall.
There is popular saying that bear
ing cocoa palm will produce one nut
for each day throughout the year, but
this is little Overdrawn, the best trees
producing about 2UU nuts per year.
