ties. A curious feature of this church trade
of Jerusalem is the candle selling. There
are scores of stores which sell only candles
for the burning about the holy sepulcher
and for use on the day when the miracle of
the holy fire is performed by the Greeks.
At this time all the pilgrims of the Greek
church buy great punches of candles and
going to the holy sepulcher stand about it
praying and singing, The priests march
part The night before this there are
sermons in seven different tongues.
REPRESENTING THE DAY OF PENTECosT,
and at certain time a miraculous fire
springs into existence in the holy sepul-
cher The candles are thrust into holes
to the official who waits within and he
lights them and passes them out. From
these others light their candles and so it
comes that the whole of the Greek pilgrims
get their candles lighted with this holy.
After they have been once ignited they
blow them out and carry them home.
Their superstition is such that they believe
that the fame really comes from heaven
and that the candles re-igpited will burn
before their alters and will preserve them
from harm.
The candle sellers do their business even
in the Church of the 4Sepulcher itself and the
court in front of the church is filled with
rosary peddiers. The Church of the Holy
Sepulcher is of vast extent. A half dozen
denominations and more worship within it
and Christ's tomb stands in marble, OBJ
long building in its rotunda under a dome
not quite so big as that of the capitol at
Washington. The scenes in and above it
have been so often described that will not
attempt them here.

says Hon. Frank Hatton, 'when a collector
came in Bob sat on one side of the table

through the door with bill in his hand and

nailed shoes ceased to sound in our ears,
Bob looked up from his manuscript, and
murmured: BY Jove, Frank, l fear shall
not be here to meet that gentleman, for
lecture in Peoria on Monday evening" His
earnest manner of regretfulness was so
well assumed that hurt myself laughing.
1t was one Of Bob's best practical jokes
and the collector was it's butt. Bob don't
go off lecturing nowadays, though, to dodge
collectors. The world realizes his genius
and pays well for his talents"

SICKLY LITTLE PIGS.
How to Prevent the Occurrence Of Dia1
rhea aud Colds

How to Prevent the Occurrence Of Dia1
rhBa aud Colds
Joseph Harris says that the most
common complaints of little pigs are
diarrhna and colds. The former is
caused by giving the SOW improper
food, or too sudden change Of diet, or
by irregular feeding, or from want Of
pure water and fresh air. We once
had few cooked beans that were left
in the steam-barrel until they decom-
posed. They were thrown on to the
manure heap. and a SOW which was
sucking pigs, ate some Of them Two
days afterwards the whole litter was
OF them died in the course of two or
three days. 1t was the worst case of
the kind we ever had, and the diar-
rhoea continued for four or five days,
and was not stopped until We gave the
pigs two or three drops of laudanum
each. at night, in some fresh cream,
with a teaspoon. and repeated the dose
the next morning. This effected
cure. but the pigs did not regain their
thrifty growth for week or ten days
We should add that the SOW continued
perfectly we'll and manifested no symp-
toms of the complaint
As a general rule no medicine will
be required. Change the food of thu
mother, and let her go out into the air,
but let the little pigs remain in the pen
and see that they are warm and COM
Portable. The less they are disturbed
and the more they sleep, the sooner
Will they recover. 1t is also very i'm
portant to keep the pen clean and well
ventilated. Nothing can be worse than
to leave the excavations in the pen.
Scatter some dry earth about the pen
to absorb the offensive gases. Let the
feeding apartment also be busted over
with dry earth, or soil of any kind that
can be obtained, and then scraped and
busted and washed and little dry
straw or chat or sawdust be spread on
it to prevent dampness Scald the pig
troughs with boiling water and make
them sweet and clean. Let this be
done every day. The attendant should
understand that the scours are an evil
dence of carelessness or Negligence

GLOOM SAT HEAVY on HIS BROW.


cowed and shrinking, trembling and dazed,
with eyes that each moment turned in mute
appeal, and longing looks of prayerful petit
tons for forgiveness, she went forth.
Out and away into the gloom, into the
blackness of night that was as midday to
the ebon that closed in upon her soul. He,
the tyrant, still burning with the fire Of un-
bridled wrath, watched her, with seeming
unconcern, even with seeming pleasure,
until no slightest semblance of her beautiful
form was discernible; then with swift, long
strides he turned and entered the house,
sought his lonely chamber and cast himself
upon his bed.
Long, long, were the hours during which
he yainly sought to find oblivion in Sleep
That precious gift came not to carry him
into the land of forgetfulness. Instead,
beating upon his brain and heart, there
came the loud knockings of compunction
and self-upbraiding for the vile, unmanly
act into which he had suffered himself to
be betrayed.
When, worn with tossing, he finally
drifted into the realm of dreams, no bright
visions refreshed him; the haunting spirit
of unrest was still in possession and he
groaned in his sleep.
The gray, cold shafts of dawning morn
that darted through the lattice Of his
windows reached his wide open eyes as he
lay, all unrefreshed by the fitful slumber,
struggling with the pride that fought
against the claims of his awakened con-
science.
He could recall that even to his dulled
senses the beating Of rain and rushing
sounds Of winds had told Of a suddenly
risen, fierce, wild storm that had swirled
through the neighbours
He forced himself to reject the thought
that mayhap Bessie had wandered into the
unsheltered open, needless Of place Of
rest, fearing or not caring to return to the
home from which she had been so harshly
driven, refusing to occupy any Of the many
places awaiting her for repose, If banished
from the chamber of her lord. He argued
that of certainty she had hidden her grief
in some distant apartment Of the great
mansion.
But rest he could not; hastily arising at
last he donned the clothing he had cast
from him on retiring and with stealthy
steps searched through his silent home.
Bessie was not there.
Quickening his steps he descended the
broad staircase, snatched a hat from the
deer-antlers in tine hail and wandered out
among the still dripping trees.
Broken branches, great limbs rudely

coiled even from the thought of meeting
once more those terribly beautiful eyes.
With speed OF the wind he hurried back,
the servants were just beginning their daily
round of duty. His quick, sharp commands
at once brought the most reliable Of the
men before him.
Disgusting with an effort the pain that
throbbed within him, to all appearances the
cool, wise master, he gave his orders.
s'James, William. Joe; take axes with you
and hurry to the old summer house.
Bessie" and ss he uttered the familiar
name Of his dear one, his voice seemed
tender, 'Bessie was wandering there in
the storm last night, the two old magnolia
trees were blown down and she is crushed
beneath them"
He paused; the men, with sorrow-strick-
en- faces, looked their intense grief, but too
well knew the man to offer words of con-
ISOLATION.
A moment, and they were about to hasten
on their errand of mercy.
Thurlow stopped them. "One of you," he
said, ''take gun with you; load with ball.
She is injured beyond help; it will be an act
of mercy to put her at once out Of her misery.
Do not touch her head; shoot her through
the he ar t; want to have her stuffed"
Then he turned his back on them and
strobe away to his lonely, lonely home.
She, Bessie, was the prize pointer dog Of
the Southern States, and had cost Tom
Thurlow nine hundred dollars to import.
Hence this anguish! hence these tearsl
