An Improbable Field.

When we arrived at Mashoupa a
dance was going OLA native Sechuana
dance-in consequence Of the full moon
and the re oicings incident on an album
dant harvest. In the ketla some forty
or more men had formed circle, and
were jumping round and round to the
sound of music. Evidently it was an
old war dance degenerated; the sugar
cane took the place of assegai, many
black legs were clothed in trousers and
many black shoulders wore coats; but
there still survive as relics of the past
the ostrich feather in the hat, the fly
whisk of the horse, jackal or other tail ,
the iron skin scraper round the neck,
which represents the pocket handker-
chief among the Kaffirs, and is used to
remove perspiration, and the flute with
one or two holes, out of which each
man seems to produce different
sound, while around the group of dane.
ing men old women still circulated, as
of yore, clapping their withered hands
and encouraging the festlvity. 1t was q
sight of considerable picturesqueness
amid the beehive huts and tall over
hanging rocks.
Mashoupa was once the residence of q
missionary, hut tie church is now aban-
doned and falling into ruins, because
when asked to repair the edltice at their
own expense the men Of Mashoupa
waXed wroth and replied irreverently
that God might repair His own house:
and one old man who received a blanket
for his reward for attending divine SER
vice is reported to have remarked when
the dole was stopped: "No more blanket,
no more. hallelujah." l fear me the
men of Mashoupa are welded to
heathendom.-The Fortnightlu ReUjeaV.

bearers, all comprised in fifteen fami-
lies or genera, readily distinguished by
the botanist, but some of them not dis
tinctly apparent to the general Observ-
er. The chief of these in many re-
spects is the pine family with twenty
five species, followed by the spruce,
comprising nine species, and the FIR fam
lily of as many species. Besides those,
there are two larches or tamaracks, two
sequoias or big trees Omitted to Cali
formal, two American cedars, two
ground Expresses, five standard cy--
presses, five jumpers, yew and
a nutmeg tree, sixty-four species
in all The state of Oregon is a
quadrangular section Of this Pacific
slope, cutting across the western
ranges of mountains densely clothed
with twenty-seven species Of thees
trees, some of them rarely net with,
and, until recently, but little known.
Nine OF the pines, the two larches, six
spruces, five frs. two American cedars,
the two grand expresses, two jumpers,
and the western view are found in Ore
gon. Certain portions of the Oregon
forests are aggregations Of those spe-
cies, particularly along the coast, and
are so close set that they must grow tall
and slim, and the lumberman, desiring
certain kinds of trees, must cut away
much of the rest to obtain them.
In the interior, on the elevated plat
eaus of the Cascade Mountains, which
are but continuation of the California
Sierras, are found noble forests, notably
around the snow striped peaks of Hood,
Jefferson, Thielson, Three Sisters, Pitt,
and others.-Portland Ortgonidn.

AIgh-prICed Drugs.

''It is a mistake to think that drug
gist's life is bed of loses, or that he has
no heavy risk IN his business" said a
well-known dealer the other day.
''Some people think that all druggist
has to do is to weigh out his drugs and
make LOCO per cent. profit. Nothing is
further from the truth. True, there is
large profit IN drugs, but then look at
the drugs We have to keep in stock
which are called for seldom, if ever.
Just let me name over few Of these
high-priced ones: Concaine muriate is
called for very often. and costs $3.50 an
ounce.
"Muriate of hydrastine costs cents

costs SIT an ounce. Curarine costs So. 33

no smaller. Homatropine costs $256 an
ounce. 1t is not called for often, and is
used to promote heart action. Hydro
cine costs so cents a grain or S24O an
ounce. 1t is used as an hypnotic or
sedative, and enters largely into the so.
called liquor cures The dose is from
one hundredth to one hundred and
fftieth Of a grain. Hyoscyamine costs
$256 an ounce, and is prescribed in
mental disorders. Strophanth costs $50
an ounce, and is prescribed as heart
tonic. The dose is from one two-hun-
dreth to one three-hundreth of a grain.
These figures show you that we have to
keep in stock many drugs for which we
NAV not receive a call once ia a year."

American Street Oars In India.

Street cars in Bombay are mostly of
American manufacture, and the pro-
motors Of the street car lines are Amer
leans. When it was proposed, not many
years age, to start such lines, Europeans
prophesied their failure upon the
ground that such common public con-
veyances could not be profitable in a
caste-ruled community. 1t was believed
that the high-caste man, who will not
eat or drink from the vessel used by q
low caste man, would refuse to ride in
a public conveyance beside his humble
brother. In spite of these doleful
prophecies the railways were built and
equipped, and 10! the high caste man
complacentlv pays his fare and rides
untroubled by the side of any sort of
man. The cheapness and convenience
Of the street cars were too much for

Lectures on current events have long

THE THUGS,

Chicago is overrun by thugs. Every
night cases of robbery are reported to
the police and some Of the outrages
are very daring indeed. The Chief of
Police declares that these parasites
have been on vacation during the
summer. As winter comes on they
return to their city haunts and begin
to push their old trade. They are cold
and hungry and are more liable to
make trouble for the police than they
do in the summer. This is a good
deal like the parasites that produce
pulmonary trouble. They are cold
and hungry, and the first opportunity
they invade the human system and
make trouble. They can be extermi-
mated, however, by taking REDS GER
MAN Couch AND KIDNEY CURE. This
great remedy contains no poison, moth
ing deleterious, but it is certain death
to all parasitic life. 1t IS the best rem
edy in the world for bronchitis and all
maladies that begin with slight cold
and end in settled annoyances. Get
this great remedy Of any dealer, and do
not take anything in place Of 1t, for
there is nothing that will doy half SO
much good. Small bottles e cents,
