slan1ey.s Wise federation.

Mr.. e. II. Johnston relates a story which
strikingly reveals one great secret of Mr..
Stanley's success in dealing with the ~unciyil-
led tribes of Africa On one occasion Mr..
Stanley went to meet an important but
rather unfriendly chief, named Ngantshu, on
an island in Stanley Pool. The chief came
with n great retinue and with his ancestral
fetch. This WIS q repulsive looking thing,
made of a monkeys skull and red clay,
studded with cowries and hung with little
bells. In it Ngantshu believed the spirits OF
his ancestors dwelt, md no treated 1t with
generation and from time to time poured
wine upon it and placed chewed up food in
its mouth. The chief introduced the fetch to
Mr.. Stanley, rather anxiously. The average
white man would probably nave laughed at
it and asked tho chief why he believed in
such absurdities. But this great explorer
sent for a camp chair and respectfully placed
the fetch in it, so that Ngantshu's ancestors
might be present Mt the conference; and when
lunch time came and Ngantshu put food into its
mouth and poured wine upon it, Mr.. Stanley
lid the snme. The result was that Ngantshu
signed n treaty and became for all time Mr.
Stanley's devoted friend. Perhaps by this
time the missionaries hnve taught him to for
sake his wretched idolatry; but they would
never have had a chance to do so had not
Mr.. Stanley first treated his faith with court
csy.-San Francisco Argunaut.

What great changes q quarter of a century
brings about. Nearly twenty-five years age
tho waters of Mobile bay were the scene Of
ono of the flercest naval encounters of mod
ern times, and the city itself was shut Off by
strong defenses from the approach of vessel
bearing the United States hng. Today We
welcome officers wearing tho uniform of the
United States as friends and brothers, and II
is one of our dearest hopes that Uncle SANS
war vessels will often steam past our wharves
or anchor in front of our city, and that q
navy yard for the construction and repair OF
such vessels will DO located at Mount Vernon
Twenty-Five years ago the flag of the
United States was the ensign of an enemy
today it is the Gag we ove-the emblem to u!
of defense and protection, of development o.
our resources and improvement of our natu
raj advantages. When its silken folds ar,
spread to the breeze 1t tells us of n restored
and indissolublo Union of indestructibl,
states. 1t Is our flag, it is our navy, just a
much as they belong to other portions of oul
country.
Over tho waters of Hampton roads, where
once the Merrimao and Monitor waged a ter,
rifle conflict that revolutionized modern naval
warfare, United States war vessels now
steam on their way to the navy yard at Nor.
folk. Their presence there is not only a sign
of national power, but also of national beneh-
cence. We trust that the same may be the
case in Mobile bay, where tho waves chant q
monody to the memory of Farragut and Blu
chanan, and each glowing sunset is q rehec-
ton of their glory. For the renown of the
bravo men of our civil war, Federal and Con.
federate, Is the common property of n re
united people, and the peace and prosperity
we now enjoy tho result of a restored Union.

The oldest of all the obelisks is the beautiful
one of rosy granite which stands alone among
the green fields upon tho banks of the Nile,
not far from Cairo. 1t is tho gravestone of
a great ancient city which has vanished and
l%eft.only this relic behind The city was the
Bethshe-- Of the Scriptures, the famous
one, which is memorable to all Bible readers
as tho residence of the priest of Potipherah,
whose daughter, Asenah, Joseph married.
The Greeks called it Hellopolis, the city Of

A sen .tck ra.renger.

On the ocean, cares little about the storm.
He is positively Indifferent whether he is
washed overheard or not. But set right
by a wine glassful or two of Hostetter' s
Stomach Bitters, he feels renewed interest
in his personal safety. This fine correc-
tive neutralizes in brackish water-often
compulsorily drank on shipboard, to the
nervous detrimcnt of health-the per-
nicious impurities which give rise to dis
orders of the stomach, liver and bowels.
To the mariner, the tourist, the Western
pioneer and miner, the Bitters is inval-
liable as a mean of protection against
malaria, when its seeds are latent in air
and water, To the effect of overwork
mental or manual, it is a most reliable an.
tidote and to the debilitatcd and ervous,
it affords great and speedily felt relief and
yigor.

A child in winter should be allowed as
much of robust outdoor sports as it irclines
to seek. And this applies rs well TO girls us
boys. Skating, coasting and even rougher
sports tend to vitalize and strengthen The
child who can make half n day in the cold of
winter dragging the sled up the hill for the
exhilnration Of IL swift rio down again Is
sure to gain in health and strength by tho
operation. Tn exercise warns the body and
the excitement stimulates the flow of blood.
The result is an increase of power, which Is
sure to finally show itself in improved health.
Then again such sports train TO self reliance.
The child that can lash down n steep hill
learns self confidence md courage. 1t may
seem a little bold in girls, but it is the bold
ness of bravery and not hat of modesty. So
with all sports of winter-they tend to health,
strength md courage.

A toad under n harrow would doubtless
give a different account of his experience

Only those aroused from midnight slum-

A Dorchester street car, the other night,
was rolling along over the desert region
somewhere on Dorchester avenue. All tho
seats were occupied Among the passengers
was a young lady, md In front of her stood
her escort, a slender youth and swell of the
most starchy sort Presently tho car stopped
and IN intoxicated mana big, burly indi-
yidual-entered. Ho swung uneasily from
sido to side for n few moments, and then a
mar who sat next TO the young lady moved
along and left "A little space on the seat. The
drunkard made a lungo for tho place and
came into an unpleasant contact with tho
young Indy.
"Aw-aw-my dynh fellow" protested the
dude, you mustn't do that, you know"
Tho man, though quito intoxicated, was
not apparently in a fighting mood; no
grinned, got up and stood In the middle Of
the car, surging from side to side again.
Now and then he bumped against the dude,
who repeated his p~rotestation;
Jaw, my dyah follow, you mustn't do that,
you known"
But presently tho drnnkard showed n dis
position to feel that he was being trampled
upon- He reasserted his right TO the frag-
ment Of a scat and made another lunge for It.
"Conductahl conductahl |" called the swell.
"Aw-this mnn must DO elected from tho
cab, don't you know. Hos inebwintedrn
Tho conductor declined to interfere. Tho
plain fact undoubtedly was that he WINS n
coward and dare not touch tho d~runkard.
The dudes face showed no sign of any emo
ton whatever; he leaned over, took the
drunkard by the coat collar, stood him on
his feet, started him toward the door, opened
1t with his disengaged hand, pushed tho fell
low out, and calmly thrust him of on tho
pavement
Then he came back, with face rs express
kionless as ever.
Jaw, very disagweeable, don't you knowrn

We offer no apology for devoting so much time
and attention to this much neglected class OF
diseases, believing that no condition OF human
Ity Is too wretched To merit the sympathy and
best services of the profession To which we be
long, as many are Innocent sufferers, and that
the physician who devotes himself
TO relieving the afflicted and saving
them from worse than death, is no less a
philanthrophist and IA benefactor to his race
than the surgeon or physician who by close APP
plication eXcels IN any other b anch OF his pro-
fession. And, fortunately FOL humanity the day
is dawning when the false philanthrophy that
condemned the victims OF folly or crime, like
the lepers under the Jewish law to die uncared
for, has passed away.

IL our climate changing We
don't know, but one thing OF
which we are very certain IL
that July has been the wettest
July on record i'll this section.
1t began to pour the last week
In June. June closed, July pass
ed aud August came, but still
the rains would not quit. Tho
effects of wnshout5 have been
disastrous to trade and travel,
but the most serious damage,
and one that can scarcely be es-
timated, even approximately, is
to fruit and crops. Cotton is a
failure, and we can'tregret much
that 1t is, if it will teach our
farmers to raise less or none of
it. When planted at all it should
be surplus crop.
