CHILDHooD's DAYS.

rye travelled the earth from pole to pole,
From desert sands to the oceans roll;
But far and near, where'er roam
I find no place like my childhood's home
My bedroom under the roof so high
Where the swallows built meath the caves
close by,
And its store OF treasures to boyhood dear
The big wasps nest and the beetles queer,
The chair made out OF drygoods box,
And snugly lined with the skin Of the fox
1 shot in the chicken yard one night
And that row Of books--a feast to the sight
From Mother Goose and Old Dog Tray
To Robinson Crusoe cast away;
And the cows down under the barnyard shed
Patiently waiting for meto be fed;
And the river lined with the birches tall,
Where we sailed our raft to an island small,
Where grand discoveries oft were made,
And plans for future greatness laid
But l turn my thoughts with q longdrawn
sigh
Good-by, old home-good-by! good-by!
I've travelled the earth from pole to pole,
From desert sands to the oceans roll;
But far and near, where'er roam,
find no place like my childhoods home

Beware of Poison.

The Druggists Circular and Chemical
Gazette is one of the best papers Of its
class in the United States. In arguing
the question of poison in the household it
cites the following case: "A gentleman
in Indiana placed on his bureau two bot.
ties, of similar appearance, one containing
cough mixture and the other liniment.
Early in the morning, being troubled with
a cough, he arose and took, as he sup.
posed, dose of the mixture prepared for
his relief, but by mistake he took the lni.
ment. 1t was said to contain aconite and
death resulted from the error" Do not
take medicine containing poison. Many
cough remedies contain opium in such
quantities that when the second dose is
taken, death is likely to ensue. Chill
dren are particularly liable to accident
from this cause. Reid's German Cough
and Kidney Cure contains no poison In
any form, neither opiates nor narcotics.
1t is impossible to take an overdose. Get
it of any dealer. Small bottles Is cents,
large ones 50 cents.

little more than half dollar

crowns little more than half dollar
for every pig This reward aroused the
slumbering energies Of natives and
hunters and hundreds of pig killers
made handsome living. Their method
was to hunt the pigs with dogs trained
to fly at the grunters and hold them by
the ear until the hunters could give the
struggling beasts the coup de grace by
sticking them to death with a long pole
belted at the end with a short heavy
piece of iron or steel.
Now, however. the pigs are not SO
numerous, although there are plenty for
sport. We had provided ourselves
with hunting spears and determined to
have as much fun as possible. On the
eighth day, as we were meandering
through the brush with our dogs at our
heels, we were startled by porkine
grunt in our vicinity The dogs broke
away atonce to a large clump Of thorny
bush and out rushed big sow with
litter of squealing young. She dashed
straight at the first dog, but not being
the kind of game we sought we called
off the dogs The mother, by the love
Of offspring Infatuated, bit, squealed
and trampled maliciously around. Her
cries brought help in the shape of two
huge brown and black boars. What
savage-looking brutes they are! How
quickly they cover the intervening dis
lancet Large flakes of foam fall from
their jaws and bespatter legs, face and
breast, and their eyes CLEAN with q
wicked fash. Ha, that is the kind Of
game we want The dogs recognize q
higher and mightier foe and go for the
boars. Each of the dogs springs at an
ear, but both are thrown off as if they
were rats.
Men and hounds feel that there is to
be warm struggle. We have cast
our guns and other impediments from us
and abide our time, spear in hand. The
boars strive to slash the dogs with their
long curled tuslSs, but the hounds nim-
bly, evade them, at the same time biting
at the flank and ear of the pigs. The
latter see US and make desperate eff
forts to shake off the dogs and attack
the men. The excitement increases,
for the SOW has come upon the scene,
and in self-defense we are obliged to
dispatch her. One of the boars, with a
dog hanging to its legs, makes rush
towards George Williams. He stands
coolly awaiting the onslaught with his
feet firmly planted on the earth and
holding the spear poised in both hands.
He is a strong man, and we are all sure
that he will be lucky this time in down
ing the first game. Zish-goes the
spear into the side of the boar, but in
stead of falling it rushes on, forcing
poor George to the ground Before we
can come to his aid the maddened
beast has gashed him twice in the
thigh. With cry of horror we see the
ground wet with his blood. But be-
fore the brute has time to do further
injury the three of us have sent home

It Is our earnest desire to impress upon

points East and South. Two fast trains
leave ST. Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth
daily, equipped with Pullman Vestibuled
Drawing Room Sleepers, Dining Cars and
Coaches of the latest design. Its Dining
Car Service is unsurpassed, which accounts,
to a great degree, for the popularity Of this
line. The Wisconsin Central Lines, in con-

only line from Pacific Coast points over
which both Pullman Vestibuled, first class,
and Pullman Tourist Cars are operated via

Short Lived Crazes.

This is great country for crazes.
They sweep over the country like cy.
clones. Whence they come and whittier
they go man knoweth not. A few years
ago the entire country was in the throes
Of the pedestrian craze. In every city,
town and village athletes were YEARLY
tramping around and around a sawdust
circle, while thousands of spectators ap-
plauded the dreary exhibition. Nobody
walks now that can ride.
Next we had the roller skating craze,
which affected both men and women.
1t, too, has gone glimmering, leaving a
trail of broken bones in its wake. The
bicycle craze is now upon us, and bids
fair to become chronic disease. The
men have had the red necktie craze and
recovered from it in time to laugh at the
suspender craze of their big sisters.
