The bulldog is not an animal to be
admired. yet he possesses one trait that
at least entities him to our respect.
His tenacity of purpose Is proverbial.
1t makes him a formidable adversary.
A like trait has often enabled man to
overcome great obstacles and win VIC
tory under the most trying circum-
stances. In fact, it is only by tenacity
of purpose and indomitable will-power,
that many of life's battles are brought
to successful termination.
Disease, like mans more material
enemies, is often an obstinate adver-
sary, and it is only by the most de-
termined persistency in the use of the
best remedy that victory is attained
over it. While DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery is guaranteed to benefit
or cure in all diseases for which it is
recommended, yet in ailments of long
standing, which are usually alike slow
in their inception and progress, the cure
must likewise be effected by slow de-
grees and regular stages. This can

Col. Charles Grantley, a noted COM
mander of Turkish gendarmes, now in
London, is said to be secretly enlisting
recruits for the Sultan's bodyguard. He
prefers sons of gentlemen who are hard
up, of whom he will form a splendid
corps, like the celebrated Scotch archer
guard described in ''Quentin Durward,"
as the trusted attendants of Louis Nv,
or the Guarda Mobile of the Pope. The
recruits must be six feet in stature and
able bodied. The corps will have the
most gorgeous arms and uniform, with
the title of "Effcndl@ tnoble), and $1,000
year pay. A similar corps is being
formed for Ferdinand of Bulgaria since
the Panitza discovery. This is regarded
as a splendid chance for young men of
good family but small means, and 20
times the number required are anxious
to seize it.
Court gossip says that the quarrel be.
tween Queen Victoria and her son-in-
law, Prince Henry of Battenberg, has
broken out afresh with renewed vira
Ience, and the Princess Beatrice is hav-
ing dreadful time of it, as she loved
her husband devotedly, and is afraid of
her mother, to whom she was always a
submissive daughter. IT is certain that
the Queen is most exacting mother
in-law, and while willing to allow
Prince Henry to smoke pipes in the
grounds and to have separate allowance
of money, she won't stand his bringing
fellows home 10 dinner without leave,
nor his slipping up to London every
now and then, and coming home
dishevelled. Battenberg is said to be
willing to live out of England, but as
serts that the British law gives him the
custody of his wife and he means to
nave it. The Queen is between two
stools. She must either lose her favor
lite daughter, or she must tolerate Bat
tenberg's chums, when he brings them
home to take ''pot luck"
