Young man, do you know anything

No. sir; but I'm not afraid of them.
DO you see that it is getting cloudy

Poisoned by a Dead Body.

Mrs. j. j. Beacon, Of Forest Grove,
is ailing from blood poisoning, con-
tracted while engaged in dressing one
Of ID. X. Ewing's children for burial in
the early part Of last winter, and her
sufferings have been such as few are
called TO undergo. Drs. Duff and Conkle
are unable to tell what the result will
be. First, one of her fingers was ampu-
tated. A second operation, more pain
full than the first, was found necessary,
and since that time the unfortunate
woman's arm has been lanced thirteen
times, and on several occasions it has
been necessary to force the lance en-
tirely through between the bones Of the
forearm. The constant pain has SO
affected her nervous system that it was
almost impossible to persuade her TO
submit to the last operation, she pre-
ferring to die rather than endure the
pain, and the doctors fear to risk the
use Of an anesthetic. The trouble was
ed by her using a needle which had
come in contact with the corpse to re-
move splinter from her finger. Pitts

Are You Squirming?

And is 1t pain that causes you to squirm?
Rheumatism will make anyone vince. Cour-
teract it, as you can readily do. at the outset
with Hostettcr's Stomach Bitters, which ex-
pels the rheumatic virus from the blood and
promptly relieves the fortunes that it pro-
duces. The evidence in its behalf on this point
is ample and conclusive, and embraces the
deliberate aflirmations of many medical prac-
titioners. Like all standard preparations the
Bitters deserves persistent trial, which, if it
receives, the happiest and most thorough re-
suits may be confidently anticipated. For
malarial kidney and liver complaints neural
gia, nervousness, indigestion and loss Of flesh
and appetite It is a world-fsmous remedy.
Convalescence after debiliating ailments is
much facilitated by il.

that dreaded disease, Consumption.

Trained Nurses In Great Demand.

Princess Christian has issued as APP
peal for nurses who are willing to de-
vote themselves to the care OF patients
who may lie siezed with cholera, and to
obey the call Of duty at a moments no.
tice. Her Royal Highness says: "The
invasion Of our country by one OF the
greatest Of human scourges calls for the
concentration Of all the resources which
science, forethought, and energy can
enlist. l am happy 10 know that the
public departm snts, forewarned and
forearmed, have already taken such
steps as must remove all ground for un-
reasonable panic, and secure, not only
the confidence, but also the welfare Of
the public. To their hands the oxecu-
ton Of hygienic precautions and the Or
ganization of medical relief may we'll be
trusted; but there remains sphere of
activity which it is the special Office OF
women TO fill. Tho trained nurse should
be found at the side Of every stricken
victim, whether rich or poor. This end
cannot be attained without careful and
intelligent organization"

This description of the natives as
they appeared to the English colonists
In Maryland was written In 1868:
They are very proper tall men OF
person; swarthy by nature but much
more by art; painting themselves with
colours in oyle, like darke red, which
they doe to keep the gnatts of. AS for
their faces they have other colours at
times, as blew from the nose upward,
and red downeward; sometimes con-
trariwise, in CRATE varietie and in very
gsstly manner. They have no teards
till they come to be very old, and there
fore drawe from each side OF their
mouthe, lines to their cares, to repre-
sent beard.
Their apparel generally. Is deere
skyns, and some furre, which they wear
like loose mantels; yet under this,
about their middel, all women and men,
at mans estayte, were rounde aprons
OF skyns, which keeps them decently
covered, so that, without any offence to
chast eyes. we may converse with them.
All the rest of their bodys are naked,
and at times some of the youngest sort
OF both men and women have just moth
ing to cover them. The natural witt OF
this nation is very quicke and will con-
ceive thing very red ly. They excel
in smell and tast and have far sharper
sight than wee. IL these people were
once Christians Gas by some signs wee
have reason TO think nothing hynders it
but wante OF languadge) it would be a
right vertuous and renowned nation.

Under Niagara.

Few who have not made the trip un-
der Niagara realize that half tho dis
tance is waded through water up to the
knees or waist; that the current of this
water is SO strong that it will sweep any
buta strong man from his feet, and that
women are usually carried through it.
What adds to the peril is tibet the noise
is too great TO hear q word, and the mist
so thick that the guide who holds your
hand can scarcely be seen. Though it
is grand, whoever goes under Niaga q
Falls should know that the guide has
his life in his hands.

The Chr Conductor.

do you know" said n Western con-
ductor recently, TO Cincinnati
Times-Star reporter, that new ticket
collectors and conductors ale often
afflicted with strange fright? Yes,
1t is so. i remember the first collec-
ton / made. The uniform was
strange to me and | imagined every
body was looking at me and guying
me. l went through the cars as in
miss half the tickets. ielt like Il
bubble Of air about to float into
space, while the passengers appeared
to be angels holding out their hands
for me. Oh, yes, soon got over it,
and | don't care now, but really the
first few trips are absolutely painful.
"How do you remember which pis-
sengers have given up their tickets?
have no way in Particular, but just
get used to it. While | may not rec
ognize every one who has raid | can
spot one from whom | have not re-
ceived a ticket at once. Then if |
am it doubt sharp look does the
business. Most people would Ike to
have the collector skip them, but
they are so impressed with the flea
that we know they have not paid that
a sharp look acts like lodestone to
draw out the cash.
"Of course it is possible for hard
ened sinner 10 bluff a collector, but
few try it. After we have once made
round there is no trouble, for at sta
tions we stand where we have a full
view of the train and see exactly
what persons go in and out Of every
car"
