How the Honor of the Idol Was Defended
by Its Faithful Priests.
Many years ago l was quartered at
Fuzarabad, an important military sta
ton about one hundred and fifty miles
from the Madras coast. Unfortunate
ly, at the time / was there, gambling
and betting were much in vogue, and
many men plunged and came to grief
over their debts of honor. Of all that
gay company, nobody was more popu-
lar and better-liked by both men and
women than young Fitzroy; but, I'M
fortunately, he lost money at the
races, tried to recover himself at the
whist table, but failed, got into the
hands of the Marwarrees, and got
deeper and deeper into the mire of
debt. At length he told the narrator
that he intended to go to England to
raise money. Twill you come away
with me?" he asked. Give out that
we have taken ten days leave for some
shooting, and see me down to the
coast. If l go off alone, l shall be
stopped by those cursed Marwarrees.
After some hesitation / agreed. He
sent in his application for leave to
Europe on private affairs, and l gave
out that l was going on ten days
shooting expedition.
A week later. with couple of ton
gas, we had started on our long and
wearying journey to the coast, where
my poor young friend hoped to pick
up steamer to take him to Europe
On the second day we met crowds OF
people tramping along. In reply to
our inquiries we were told they were
all returning from the great festival OF
Juggernaut, held at Puri. now only
some three days journey from where
we WERE The tongawalla kept us in

the festival and of the great god,
which was especially remarkable for
the wonderful jewels it possessed
two emerald eyes ofinestimable value,
its lips formed of the finest rubbies in
the world, and necklace OF priceless
pearls. The sun was sinking as at
last we neared the town OF Puri, and
we could see the pinnacles OF the tenn
pies rise above the trees which sur
rounded the place Half a mile the
other side of the town stood the
Travellers Bungalo, where we
intended putting up for the
night. A more uncomforta-
BILE meal never ate than
the dinner which was served up to us
that evening, and l was quite thankful
when the poor lad said he was dead
beat and would go off to bed My own
room was on the other side of the
bungalow, and took my pipe and sat
smoking in the veranda. The moon
was just rising when l thought l saw
the figure of a European stealing along
the wall of the compound. Strange,
thought, and wondered what other
European there could be here at the
same time. An idea struck me. and L
went across to my companions room.
There was nobody in it, the bed was
undisturbed. threw down my pipe |

Early Americans.

Simplicity in their mode of living was the
marked characteristic of the early settlers
of America.
Every thing which pertained to them was
plain and transformations.
The food which they ate was frugally
served and of the substantial kind.
Their clothing was home-spun and the
moccasins which covered their feet were
home product, being made from the hide OF
animals and ornamented with beads after
the Indian fashion.
Their homes were simplicity itself, con-
sisting of roughly hewn logs and home made
shingles-the whole constituting the old
Log-Cabin home of frontier life.
Yet those were model homes.
The wives and mothers were well versed
in the art Of all that pertained to house
wifery
Conspicuous i'll the early home was the
striking figure of the old grandmother.
Not only was she the adviser in social af-
fairs but she was the medical adviser and
prescriber for the sick. Often were her
hands engaged in the preparation of some
healing potion or remedy for the relief of
those in ill-heaith. Fully versed in all the
bountiful supplies contained in the grand
store-house of Nature, she wisely knew how
to utilize the curative properties contained
in certain roots and herbs ard accordingly
she transformed them into certain remedial
agents, which have made the old Log Cabin
famous for all time to come.
Conscious of the great value of some of
those old time home cures a successful eff
fort has been made to re-discover the lost
secret of their preparation, and, coupled
with all the improvement which human in
genuity and progress suggests, they are
now widely known under the name of War.
ner's Log Cabin Remedies, the most prom
nent being Log Cabin sarsaparilla and Log
Cabin cough and consumption cure.
The suffering public has been quick to
recognize and appreciate their true value
and the manufacturers are daily in receipt
of much praise for the re-discovery and re-
vival of these old time remedies against
sickness and disease.
To the old Log Cabin home, however, is
justly due the praise for all the good which
may, thereby, be effected.
