Sitting OH the Safety Valve,

Many are they who have laughed
at the story of the green steamboat
fireman who sat on the safety valve
TO prevent it leaking. Yes thousands
are repeating his folly every day.
They are troubled with blotches,
pimples, eruptions, salt rheum, boils
carbuncles, ulcers and old sores, and
are contenting themselves with sup
pressing the symptoms without re-
moving the cause. They sit on
these safety valves by which nature
is driving out blood impurities, in
stead of using DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, which cures by
removing the cause, which is in the
blood. 1t is wonderful blood pu-
rifier and invigorating tonic.
DO you think the proprietors of
DR.. Sage's CataTh Remeov would
offer, as they have done for many
years, a standing reward of $500 for
a case of catarrh which they cannot
cure, if they did not positively know
that the remedy will absolutely and
permanently cure catarrh. Sold by
druggists at only so cents.

An Amusing Imbroglio.

"A somewhat amusing imbroglio CON
nected with forged bank-notes is making
the Hungarians merry" says the Vienna
correspondent Of the London Times " A
short time ago gang of men, supposed TO
be forgers OF bank. notes, was arrested at
Stuhlweissenburg, and the tribunal of that
town sent bundle Of their false notes TO the
court OF justice at Budapest, before which
the prisoners were TO be tried. by some
blunder the notes were forwarded TO the
tax ofiice as genuine, and the tax office
put them in circulation, As a consequence
the prisoners had TO be acquitted on that
trial for want Of proof, They now intend,
II is said, 10 sue the Hungarian Government
for their money, arguing that the genuine
ness OF the notes has been sufficiently es-
tablished by their circulation through the
tax office. IL ought 10 be explained that in
this country, where the currency is paper,

DOGS IN WARP ARE.
How They Are Taught to Detect the
Presence of the Enemy.


Among the various uses to which the in.
telligence Of dogs has been put is that OF
scouts in military affairs, says Black
woods Magazine. Here the weIl-trained
dog does such services as to become well
nigh invaluable.
That Napoleon fully realized how impor-
tant a role might be assigned TO dogs is well
known. In 1899 he wrote to Marmont
"There should be at Alexandria a large
number Of dogs, which you ought to be able
to employ by massing them in groups at a
short distance from the walls" The marvel
ls that, after SO plain an expression on the
subject from such an authority in the art Of
war, the employment of dogs should not
have become matter of course, instead Of
which, eighty-nine years later, it is still re-
garded as a ten tative measure
Recent experiments prove that the we'll
trained dog will give notice of the presence
of man, dressed in the uniform of foe,
at distance of one thousand feet. And
just as the custom-house dog passes quietly
by honest peasants and only calls the at
tention Of their masters to law-brl akers, so
these wise regmental dogs ignore the
movements of unattached civilians, but
seem to develop strong person al antipathy
to any person whom they intuitively recog-
nize as being in the service Of the enemy.
Probably, however, no dog has ever
rendered such signal military service, or
has been so honorably recognized as
the celebrated poodle Mustache, who
shared the victorious fortunes of
the French army through most of the wars
of the Consulate and the French empire
He won special honor at Marengo and was
decorated on the battlefield of Austerlitz
by Marshal Lannes as reward for having
rescued his regimental standard from an
Austrian soldier when in the act of snatch
ing it from the grasp Of the standard
bearer as he fell mortally wounded. The
plucky poodle drove off the assallant, and
then selling the tattered colors in his
teeth, dragged them triumphantly till he
reached his own company.
II Is evident that were military dogs to
be exclusively chosen from any special
breed, all animals of that race would be-
come targets for the foe, whichever seen,
therefore dogs are to be settled on account
Of individual mert--or rather promise of
merit, as it is necessary to begin their tut
tion in early youth, and canine education
should be commenced in good earnest at six
months of age. SO the dogs now to be seen
in training at certain German and French
military stations are of all sorts and sizes
'dachshunds' and poodles, retrievers and
collies, greyhounds, foxhounds. fox terriers
and others, male and female. The Italians
prefer the latter as possessing keener
senses of hearing and scent All are
trained to rigid silence-a result only to be
obtained after long and patient tuition, in
deed it is at all times difficult to insure
obedience when music strikes up, so great
is the temptation to give vocal accompani-
ment.

There are some weather signs that
are very reliable, even If the prophets
do blunder often. One of these Is
that of the greater frequency of
amoras every fifty years, accompan-
led by unusually large sun spots.
Some observers had commented on
this about the year 1920, and fixed
the recurrence of the nifty year cycle
for l74O. Every ten or twelve years
there was II recurrence of the phe-
nomcnu with greater frequency,
then would follow some years dur
Ing when there was almost an entire
absence of them, and so up and
down until the great period of the
fitieth year would be reached. a
table was prepared according to this
theory, making, l7l0 as the date of
the iiitieth year period, then 1890,
then 1910, and 1890 and so ON.
Looking over some old files We found
tilt lubit III " pbhii VI itiNNiuNhiN
for the year 1860. According To that
we are now just entering tho great
curve for 1870. Every reader must
have noticed how much the news
papers have to say about sun spots
and nmoras in these days. This
period Is farther complicated with
distances from the great planet
Jupiter, now near his perlhellon
period which recurs every twelve
years. According to this theory,
and It Is pretty well established, we
are now In n term of great storms,
earthquakes, electrical displays and
the like, such as will not occur again
with such in twenty or tlfty years.
We shall see what we shall see, rs
