TO Cocktails In Africa.

You who send out men to Africa and
You who are DESTROYS of succeeding there
when sent should remember that Euro
peans ought not to be younger than
tyenty-one nor older than thirty when
commencing their first term of service
in the Dark Continent. As rule, mid
dle-siZed thin men succeed best in main
tanning their health and vigor, but
hard and fast rule as to physique cannot
principle that short, spare men succeed
best, but have known tall men and fat
men who have occasionally done sur
prisingly well nevertheless, think all
who have had much experience in Africa
will agree with me that the greatest
number Of deaths and tho greatest
amount OF i'll health have occurred
among the bulky and the tall.
Sobriety Of life is an absolute neces-
sity il you wish to live long and well in
Africa. In fact, the safest general rule
would be to abandon the consumption OF
all forms of alcohol whatever from the
day that you land on African soil. unless
wines, spirits, or beer are actually forced
on you by a qualified doctor as q
necessary medicine. il you are
really i'll and are positively order
ed TO drink some form OF alcohol it
should not be drunk until after sun
down. Alcohol taken during the day.
time in Africa is simply poisonto awhile
man-an insidious poison if Won like,
and one that often DISCUSSES Its effects,
so that careless observer might at
tribute them to other causes-but
deadly poison all the same, and perhaps
the more deadly because the punishment
it inhicts is not readily recognizable.
Unfortunately, especially among the
British, alcoholic excess is terribly preva-
lent / mean what may be called excessin
Africa, but what in England would be
looked upon as the allowance of tenn
pefate, sober man. And that is where
so many good men go wrong. They
cannot be brought to understand that
because they do not drink till they get
drunk, and because what they are taking
for their daily consumption in Africa is
not drop more than they consumed in
England, they are nevertheless exceed
ing, and piling up in their systems q
store Of poison which will either result
in terribly sudden death or the shatter.
ing of their health.
Next to alcoholic excess in danger
comes gluttony in feeding. This, espe-
cially among teetotalers, is constant
source of malady. They, the teetotalers.
seem to imagine that because they abb
stain from alcohol they may gobble as
much food as possible they generally
have an inordinate craving for fat, oily
substances and sweet things, in all OF
which they are prone to indulge to such
excess that they are rapidly stricken
down with bad form of bilious-fever.
and then they turn round and ask
what you can expect "from such
beastly climate a. this 2" "Here am

taken anything stronger than tea, and
yet am as bad rs poor So-and-So. who

"A Lions Prisoner.
From the Seattle Press.

The following is told on the authority
of well-known Cape Missionary: A
man having sat down on shelving, low
rock near a small fountain to take a
little rest after his hearty drink, fell
asleep; but the heat of the rock soon
disturbed his dreams, when he beheld
large lion crouching before him, with
it's eyes glaring in his face, and within
little more than yard of his feet. He
was ut first struck motionless with terror,
but, recovering his presence OF mind,
he eyed his gun and began moving bis
hand slowly toward it, when the lion
raised it's head and gave tremendous
roar. the same awful warning being re-
peated whenever the man attempted to
move his hand The rock at length be-
came so heated that he could scarcely
bear his naked feet to touch it. The
day passed and the night also, but the
lion never moved from the spot; the
sun rose again, and it's intense heat
soon rendered his feet past feeling.
At noon the lion rose and walked to
the water, only a few yards distance,
looking behind as it went, lest the man
should move, when, seeing him stretch
out his hand to take his gun, it turned in
rage and was on the point of springing
upon him. And another night had
passed as the former had done, and the
next day again the lion went toward the
some some noise apparently from an opposite
quarter and disappeared in the bushes.
The man now seized his gun, but on first
essaying to rise he dropped, his ankles
being without power. At length he
made the best of his way on his hands
and knees, and soon after fell in with
another native, who took him to place
of safety; and, as he expressed it, with
his ''toes roasted" He lost his toes and

Duchess of Manchester and Lord Hart
iDgton are about to modify their time
honored morganastic friendship into a
regular orthodox marriage, | recall the
first appearance of Lord Harrington on
these shores. 1t was during the civil
war. Passion ran high in those days,
and men were short-tempered. The
Marquis was a Southern sympathizer,
and declared his affections by wearing a
Confederate badge at ball in New
York, at which several officers of the
army were present. One of them plucked
with vigor the offending color from
the Marquis buttonhole, and offered
him any sort Of satisfaction, any
where and at any time. The invitation,
however, was not accepted, and his
lordship wandered Southwark. In Bal
timore, calling on a very brilliant young
lady of the Southern persuasion, he re-
clined on sofa with his feet elevated,
and asked his hostess how he would be
received in Richmond. The answer
came promptly: IF you behave as a
gentleman you will be received accord
ingly If you call on ladies and recline
in their presence some of their male
relatives will probably shoot you.
Later the Marquis drifted down to
Washington, where Mr.. Lincoln, dag
nosing him thoroughly, insisted on call
ing him "Mr. Partington.' In point OF
fact. his excursion was not success IN
any part of the country.

since the spring shows decided signs OF
consumption, and Princess Maud, who
has always been a sufferer from
Mysteries, has lately undergone an in
crease in these attacks. Meanwhile for
several months past his Royal Highness
himself has materially changed, and bis.
proverbial strength of constitution can
no longer be depended upon. Indeed,
il is not very long since the Prince in
conversation referred to himself as one
who might at any moment quit the
scene where he has played SO important
a part. On the other hand" continued
the Review, ''Her Majesty, with the ex-
ception of occasional attacks of rheums-
tism, continues to enjoy the best of
health, and may very probably be
spared to us for another twenty years
