Varicose Veins.

To the Nolondine Company:
Permit me to add my testimony to the
curative properties of Nolandine.
For many years have suffered from
varicose veins. Twelve months ago
struck my leg against chair, breaking
one of the veins. The wound thus
made could not be healed except for a
short time; then break out afresh. . At
times I suffered untold misery from 10
cal fever aud most insuferable burning
sensation. After using two (2) bottles
of your vegetable Nolandine" the
liberated places healed, the swelling
disappeared, natural sleep was restored,
and my nervous system composed.
AS a vermifuge, Nolandine acted spe-
officially on one of my children. AS a
blood purifier and general tonic, your
Nolandine has no equal. Gratefully
yours, D. B. PROSSER,

A BABoON sWITcHMAN.
[Sporting and Dramatic News.I

A baboon is a WE'LL known character
IN tbs. Cape Colony, but more particu-
larly in the neighboting of Port Ell
zabeth..ii The history, attaching to him
is curious and probably unique one.
The signal man, his owner, was,
through no fault Of his Own, run over
by a passing train and, had to have
both legs amputated, which would ma
turally incapacitate him from work,
but the idea struck him to secure a
baboon and train him to do his work.
This he has successfully accomplished
and for many years the one in ques-
tion has regularly looked after the
levers and done the hard work Of his
afflicted master. The animal is pos
sessed of extraordinary intelligence,
and has never made G. mistake. Of
course the human servant works the
telegraphs, and the baboon the levers,
according to instruction; and taking
into consideration the factsthat at the
station in. question, Ultenhage juno
ton, ana about twenty miles from
Port Elizabeth, there is large volume
of traffic, the sagaeity of the, creature
is truly wonderful At first nd en-
gers raised strong protest against the

boon has never yet failed during his

ner simply astounding to those who
never had personal experience of the
of these brutes. One of
his most noteworthy performances was,
the switching Of an unannounced spe-
cial train on its correct line in the
absence Of the signaLman. The lat
ter lives about a mile up the line, and
the baboon pushes out and s,home,
morning and night, and is the sole
companion of his legless master.

AN EXCELLENT SCHOOL.

The third inst. being the day ap.
pointed for the closing up Of the pub
lic schools in the End Ward, Mr.. Ph.
Martin, the teacher Of Isle des Cannes
school, thought it would be proper to
have his pupils go through q public
examination, and other appropriate
exercises, on that day in the presence
of their parents and friends.
The children, dressed neatly in their
Sunday clothes, came promptly and
early on the appointed morning, most
Of them in carriages, buggies, ETC.,
and a few gayly prancing on horse
back.
The forenoon was devoted to the
examination OF the various classes
composing the school, made by the
teacher on all the branches taught
during the session; and the afternoon
was devoted to the recitation of Sc
lccted pieces, poetry, etc.
As the school room is only Is x 20
feet, it was not large enough to accom-
modate the pupils, numbering more
than 40, who were in attendance, and
the ladies and gentlemen visitors; SO
that many could not gain admittance.
All of those present expressed them
selves as eminently satisfied with the
marked improvement of the children,
and delighted at the beautiful and
cheerful countenances of the girls and
boys, and at their good behavior.
The teacher expressed, in a few ap-
propriate words, his satisfaction and
thanks to the parents for the good at
tendance of their children and their
excellent conduct at school during
the session.
A number of prizes were distribut-
ed; and after hearty farewell, the
pupils broke out from the school house
loudly shouting their Joy at the open
ing Of vacation.
