call was not sounded that morning, the
colonel wishing to know before starting
how much damage had beel done and
whether the men were fit to march.
When 1 arose at daylight and looked
around could scarcely realize that l was
awake. The plain wore quite a different
aspect. These large waves of sand that
had noticed the previous day had disap~
peared. A dune, fifteen feet high, had also
been removed, and several of the eminenceS
had been reformed few miles on.
Many tents had been torn, and the sand
had penetrated through every assure and
hole in the knapsack, and even into the gun
barrels The pack saddle and loads of pro-
visions had disappeared almost entirely be-
meath the sand. Several boxes weighing
eighty pounds had been rolled a dis
lance of 200 feet and partly broken.
However, aside from the three men
who had been stumbled over by horses and
wounded, no one felt any serious conse-
quences from the tempest. Two horses
were found to have lost an eye from being
struck by coarse grains of sand. The day
was spent in making repairs. but for fear Of

ground.

Farmer Roberts was wild with anger. but
he was devout church member, and when
he pulled up his team before the group,

the parson was praying, his religion got the

They say that this prayer was longer
than such prayers are wont to be, and that
in calling upon the Almighty to bless the
newly welded pair the parson did not fall
to argue the case with the father, nor TO
impress upon the young man the church
views OF a husbands duty. 1t seems to
have been a fervent and etfectusl prayer,
for they say that the father and son-in-law
became friends then and there, and that
Duquesne ceased from that time on TO go
about the country seeking for dances, and
soon became one of the substantial citizens

uncomfortable as to drive one to the grave

In Brazil, on the San Francisco river
these little posts are so numerous and VEN
omous that the inhabitants actually resort
TO burial TO get rid of them. That is, they
dig holes ia the river bank in which they
lie down and then cover themselves with
the sand, just as children sometimes do
when playing on the sesshore, having
previously placed over the head a coarse
cotton cloth which is kept in place by the
sand. Ii this way they manage TO secure
what at best can be but a very imperfect
sort of rest.

old, and is one OF a large litter, none
of the others of which, however, are in
any way remarkable.
The pup has two feet at the end Of its
left hind leg, one with five and the
other with four toes. They are sep
arated by a hardly distinguishable
crease, and at first glance, the toes,
which are all set along in single line,
seem to belong to one foot. The pup is
hardly old enough to walk yet, and its
owner does not know whether it will be
able to use its doublefooted leg or not.
Mr.. Christie says he wouldn't part
