February 18Th, 1888. {
This is to certify that three years ago I
had my left leg amputated four inches
below the knee, caused by blood poison
and bone affection. After it was ampu-
tated there came a running ulcer on the
end of it that measured 81 inches one
way and ~ inches the other, and cor
unued growing worse every day until d
short time ago. I was given up to die by
the best doctors in Charlotte. | heard Of
the wonderful B. B. B. resolved to try
that. Ny weight at the time l corr
menoed b. B. B. was I20 pounds. When
I had taken three bottles I gained 81
pounds in weight; when I had taken
twelve bottles | was sound and well. but
continued taking until I had taken fifteen
bottles. l now weigh $50 pounds and
measure five feet and three inches high.

LARGE Game Becomine Extlnct.

The total extinction of wild animals
that are too large to effectively seerete
themselves FROM rapacious hunters is
merely a question OF time. the rail-
road has so improved the huntsman's
opportunities 10 indulge in his favorite
sport that no corner OF the world is
now too remote TO be included in the
plans of campaign OF sporting clubs and
private groups OF sportsmen. Within a
year or so past the departure was
chronicled of titled nabob from his
Wyoming cattle ranch, for tiger hunt
in far-away India
1t is reported that in a large section
of Africa where elephants were once
very numerous, the mighty animal is
now almost extinct, owing TO the ASST
duty OF professional hunters in the
ivory trade. As evidence of the de-
crease in the number OF elephants, the
st. James Gazette states that in 1879
the value Of ivory exported through
Cape Colony was eco 402; in 1886 it
was e., $50. In 1873 El7,l99 worth of
ivory was exported from Natal, against
Il, 100 worth in 1885. Tho Cape
government years ago threw legal
safeguards around the elephant in that
section, and as result the huge
animals are said TO be more numerous
along the Indian Ocean in Cape Colony
than they are 800 miles inland.
In our own country the slaughter OF
the buffalo has illustrated the need OF
legislation on the subject, if the bison is
to be preserved from utter extinction.
There is not a single herd left of the
vast number OF buffalo that roamed the
prairies when the red man held undis.
putcd possession OF the great west. A
report which was circulated about year
ago that there was in the Panhandle OF
Texas a small herd OF buffalo was I'M
doubtedly sufficient TO induce hunters
innumerable TO that section, all eager
to win the honor OF killing buffalo.
The hunter of the future who wishes TO
assert with truth that he has shot a
buffalo will have TO purchase one OF the
animals now being domestiCatcd and
crossed with beef cattle, or send q bull
let into the stuffed ciiigy OF a buffalo.
The day is coming, unless the law n
tervencs, when no animals but those
that crawl and burrow will be left for
the sportsman. In that coming time
understanding may OF necessity be
raised to the rank Of sport. -Milwau-
kce Wisconsin.

Some MOraliZing.

Almost every fourth man one meets
in these beautiful March days remarks,
if he have time. This is divine wealth
err and then adds instantly and omn-
ously as his face visibly lengthcns: "Of
course this sort of thing can't last, and
in protracted and violent storm we will
yet pay dearly Tor the comfort we now
enjoy"
But come now, isn't that a shamefully
ungracious way of taking the good
things of life weather or anything
else? Isn't it also very unphilosophic
way? And. most OF all, isn't it a way
very inconsistent?
1t is quite unlike the most of us when
we arc in the toss and whirl OF ugly
storms, either OF the elements or in our
individual experience, 10 stop and say,
This sort OF thing can't last" and "of
course we arc sure to be well paid for
all this in the speedy coming OF bright
ness and sunlight. Oh. no. There are
far too many pcssimists among us TO
reverse the order in any such cheerful
and sensible fashion as that. Yet rules
work both ways; and storm breeds sun
shine as surely as sunshine is the fore
runner of Storm. The presence OF
clouds anywhere is the sign OF the fact
OF the sun; and 1.-The dark night is the
mother OF the morning"
II, then, we must anticipate concern
ing the weather, and also the thousand
and one experiences vouchsafed to our
individual lives, let US at least "play
fair" II we must croak that the
brightness and balm OF these March
days are storm-brceders, as we arc
all too prone TO do, let us at least be
able TO remember when the storms
whose coming we dread are upon us,
that they are just as surely breeders OF
coming sunshine.
If we will cloud any present bright
ness by borrowing trouble of the future,
let us also. in simple justice to our
selves. brighten present darkness by
borrowing happiness likewise, from
the days that lie ahead. -MiIwaukee
Wisconsin.
