yyolfhounds and Bloodhounds.

1t is now certain that the dog show at
the Detroit Exposition will be the largest
and most important ever held in the
West. Several extraordinary entries
have been booked. Among them is
pack of Siberian wolfhounds, imported
for use on sheep ranches in Texas and
New Mexico, where wolves are very nu-
merous, very large and very destructive.
This breed of dogs has never before been
exhibited in America. They closely re-
semblc gigantic grcyhounds and are
nearly twice rs largo rs greyhoupds, with
hair much the same rs st. Demands.
They are extraordinarily fleet, fierce and
powerful. The least dog in the pack is
warranted singly to catch and kill tho
most powerful wolf ever whelpcd. They
arc bred and used exclusively for hunting
the large and fierce Siberian wolves; and
they do not need training, as wolves are
their natural prey. They are noted for
kecnness of sight. by which they run en-
clusivcly. They can see wolf upon the
prairie fur beyond tho ken of man, or
other dogs; and such is their quicSncss
and judgment that wolf seen in timber
or thicket, where he eau dodge out of
sight, SO rarely escapes that when one
does get away it is deemed strange.
Another good entry is made by Mr..
Brough, of London, England. This, Gu,
try comprises the identical pair of blood
hounds employed by the London police
to hunt down the Whitcchnpcl murderer
"Jack the Ripper" whom the dogs
would have certainly got had he not es-
capped in some vehicle. On recent
trial ono of these dogs chased stranger,
whom he had never seen, over mile on
n crowded street trodden by thousands
of people, into hotel, upstairs to n bed
room, through the window to a verandn,
thence to the roof, thence down through
the kitchen, rccking with tho smell of n
cooking dinner, thence to the street and
IN office. They nre very large, of the
English bloodhound breed, and arc gen-
uine man hun,ers, able to pick up trail
on the crowded pavement after it ia
forty eight hours old and hunt down the
pursued. The dogs stands thirty inches
high, with ears measuring thirty-four
inches from tip to tip, and weighs 100

woRDs on WISDOM.

Tho trucat Joy VIC haye in life is in
making others glad.
Laughing helps us through the world;
crying keeps us back.
Our memories are the echoes of ioys
and griefs forever gone.
Life is not so short but there is always
time enough for courtesy.
About the most difficult effort VIC can
make is to realize our own ideals.
The flower that opens first to tho sun
shine keencst suffers from tho frost.
To give praise sincerely is only Just
expression of our recognition of true
worth.
We love ourselves notwithstanding our
faults, and we ought to love our friends
in u like manner.
That is brave little soul, indeed, that
has the power to turn its "double- pains
to doublo-praisc.
1t would seem to be preferable to wear
out, rather than to be saved from rust
by an applied polish.
Character does not usually sustain sud-
den changes; age is most generally tho
development of youth.
Getting into passion is good deal
like getting into briar bush. Tho bush
comes out all right, but you don't.
IT'S not always what we have accom-
plishcd, but whit VIC had hoped to, that
has afforded us the most satisfaction.
Happiness lies concealed in our duties,
which, when fulfilled, give it forth us
the opening rose gives forth fragrance.
Whenever you find man who is q
failure you will also find patient little
woman who makes his excuses in tho
world.
Wise men may be convinced that ma
turo is controlled by higher power, but
he is fool who tries to show how he can
control her.
When people can read they have no
more need for nm interpreter than blind
man for light before he can understand
what he hears.
Education, influence and growth are
identical terms, and when person dis
covers that he develops from the cxpan-
sive powers from within, he will break
the shell that influence wcavcs around
him

1t was Ben Johnson, we be-
lieve, who, when asked NAL
locks question, "Is life worth

Johnson doubtless saw the
double point to the pun.
The liver active quick
life rosy, everything bright,

The liver sluggish-lifc dull,
everything blue, molchills of

Two ways arc open. Cure

Shock the system by an over

HOW ITO Know Him.

At police headquarters in New Yorl,
not long ago message was received,
calling for policeman to come instant

but he had taken the pains to Disguise

Use of Oatmeal Declining.

There is much evidence to show that
although orr population is increasing
that tho use of oatmeal is decreasing.
We are glad to know it for the sake of
the general health of the people of these
United States. 1t is admitted by the best
elements of the medical profession that
great many cases of dyspepsia, skin
diseases and intestinal difficulties have
been either directly caused or aggravated
by this greatly advertised commodity.
The first thing an oatmeal manufacturer
will say when he is advocating the use
of oatmeal probably is "Just look at the
'Scotch--what healthy people they are
and their principal article of food is oat-
meal" If they are a healthy people 1t
is on account Of their climate, good
water, exercise, etc., aud not because,
they cat oatmeal. Did you ever hear of
the "Scotch itchl" Did you not know
that one of the characteristics of the
Scotch people is their frugality, and is
not oatmeal cheap2 But the Scotch are
sensible people, aud when they can get
something else to eat for a price within
their means, they "let up" on the use of
oatmeal quickly. If you ever saw
healthy, fat Scotchman, you can rest as
sured that he has had a good deal to eat
besides Gait meal parritch."
We believe there are many brands OF
oatmeal made both here and abroad, that
if properly cooked are nutritious and
useful, but the chances are that in the
hurry and hustle of life, especially in
his country, that oatmeal will not be
properly cooked once in hundred times
at least. - United States Miller.

Water Cure for Consumption.

The announcement that DIR. w. H.

it would give the very life to the system

He pronounced tie bacteria theory, so
popular of late, as mere nonsense and
said that the belief that consumption
WINS contagious was working the greatest
possible harm. One cannot inhalc enough
of the bacteria by single association with
consumptives to catch the disease.
His treatment consisted of the free use
of water every hour in the day, nine
hours sleep, regular but not exhaustive
outdoor exercise in, if possible, sea or
mountain air.
Hcrcdity was the greatest danger, and
DIR. Burt advocated the passing by Con-
gress of n law forbidding marriage of
consumptives. With this in force 100
years from now consumption would not

facturcrs have no great merit of artistic
workmanship. Tho wider streets aro
lined with booths for the sale of food,
fruit, grain, meat and tobacco. A few of
the aristocracy ride about on ponies; but
their ordinary conveyance, as they sell
dom or never walk in public, is chair
carried on long poles, like litter, upon
mems shoulders, aided sometimes by a
single wheel underneath the chair. The
spoken language of the Corean people is
of Tartar origin, but mixed with Japa-
nose and Chinese forms OF speech, and
the written literature is in Chinese char
acters. The Buddhist religion is preva-
lent, but the Lao-Tze, or ancient rclig-
ion of China, is cherished by many of the
older families.
