After the Grip

Convalescence Is very slow and to recover
the health-tone good tonic is absolutely
necessary. Hoods Sarsaparilla has been
used with wonderful success as a building
up medicine and block purifier after attacks
Of the Grip, after Typhoid Fever, Scarlet
Fever, ,Diphtheria, Pneumonia or other pros
trating diseases. 1t possesses just the build
ing-up effect so much needed; ii vitalizes
and enriches the thin and Impoverished
blood, and IL invigorates the kidneys and
stimulates the liver so that they resume re-
gular and healthy action. Thousands of
people have taken Hoods Sarsaparilla as IA
preventive of the Grip with success. Thous-
ands have found in it restoration to health
and strength after this dreaded complaint.
For instance, Mr., Jacob Knapp of Upton,
Iowa, well known business man, says he
had the Grip twice, leaving him very weak
and with n bad cough. Hoods Sarsaparilla
gave him a splendid appetite, made him
feel strong and as well as ever.

Indians Trying to Stop a Train.

B. w. Vedder, locomotive en-
gineer says: When the Kansas Paci-
fic was first opened the Indians were
very hostile, and there was constant
fear that they would wreck the trains.
That they did not is due to their
ignorance of the iron horse and of the
best methods of destroying it. One
of my:fremen had an experience with
the Cheyennes that he will never for
get. He was on the road near Fort
Wallace, when he saw that the In
dians had cut the telegraph wire,
and knew that he might look out for
a s4uall. They were never satisfied
with simply cutting the wire, but
chopped it into inch pieces with
their tomahawks to efectually stop
the mysterious messages.
As the train came near large
patch of sunfiowers which grew on
both sides of the track over 100 In
dians rose up, stretched strong rope
across the track, braced themselves
and prepared to receive the shock of
the locomotive. As was afterward
learned, they had taken rawhide
strips, braided them together and
with a force of fifty at each end of
the rope, thought that they would be
able to stop the train. The instant
the locomotive struck the rope the
air was full of Indians. They were
thrown in all directions. Some were
jerked clear across the train and
more than Il dozen were killed or
seriously injured. This was the last
attempt made for years to stop the
trains.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

HOW A BEE FIGHTS.
Fierce Engagement Between . Bundle
and q Humming Bird.


and q Humming Bird.
An observer writes that he is satisfied
that there is just as much rivalry be-
tween humming birds and bees in their
quest for honey as there is between
members of the human race in their
struggle for the good things of life, and
describes q recent quarrel that he saw
in Portland garden, where humming
bird with an angry dash expressed its
disapproval of the presence of big
bumblebee in the same tree. The
usually pugnacious bee incontinently
fed, but he did not leave the tree. He
dashed back and forth among the
branches and white blossoms, the hum
ming bird in close pursuit.
Where will you find another pair that
could dodge and dart equal to these?
They were like flashes of light, yet the
pursuer followed the track of the pur-
sued, turning when the bee turned. In
short, the bird and the bee controlled
the movements of their bodies more
quickly and more accurately than he
could control the movements of his
eyes. The chase was all over in halt
the time that it has taken to tell it, but
the excitement of pack of hounds after
fox was no greater. The bee escaped
the bird giving up the whole chase and
ahghting on a twig. 1t couldn't have
been chasing the bee for food, and there
is no possible explanation of it's unpro
volked attack, except that it wished tc
have all the honey itself

THE MOON DRAGON.
How an Eclipse Of the Moon L. Regarded
In Oriental Lands.

How an Eclipse OF the Moon L. Regarded
In Oriental Lands.
II Is a time-honored belief in Turkey
and many other oriental countries that
an eclipse of the moon is caused by a
huge dragon that seeks to devour our
"silvery sister world" and in making
the attempt winds his Shiny body about
II, thus hiding it from terrestrial OBJ
servers. A writer on the Brandon Ban
DER was in Constantinople on the night
Of August %, 1877. the occasion of the
great eclipse throughout eastern Europe
and western Asia, and was a witness TO
the peculiar ceremony of "Kakai-mayi-
81" which was calculated to free Luna
from her scaly antagonist. There was
general attempt made to brighten the
dragon" 10y firing muskets and re-
volvsrs and by beating upon drums,
,ymbals, kitchen utensils. etc. As IN
times past, it was soon found that the
moon was beginning to show her face,
and congratulations were everywhere
heard upon the victory gained This
queer lunar superstition is not confined
TO any class, but is believed IN by the
rich and poor, ignorant and educated
alike

BAD FOR The EYES.
Several Things That Help to Make Mon
Elkud-

Blind
Among the sources of the greatest
trouble to the eyesight are the chewing
Of tobacco this above almost all 9TH
ersl, the excessive use Of wine, spirits
ton of quinine; the useof cosmetics for
heightening the luster of the eye, and
mixtures for dyeiug the hair and eye
brows, and there Is q case on record
where a dimiuution of vision has been
traced TO the wearing of an artificial
wreath of flowers Another source of
failing vision may be traced TO impeded
circulation The wearing Of tight neck
wear, such as collars which are too
small, or shirt binds or neckties tightly
drawn. should be avoided, as they pre-
vent the downward column OF blood re-
turning 70 the hee%t, and dilatation and
Developments of disease is likely to fol-
low. The same rule holds good OF con-
striction of other parts of the body.
Another most serious source of eve
strain is constant reading In railroad
carriages, which rs the practice OF near
ly all business men in going to and from
their offices OF stores, and the injury to
the eye from this cause Is inca1culable.
Nothing gives tired eyes greater relief
than a green disc or square of sufficient
size, suspended on q direct hne OF vision
OF OF against wall, on which the eyes
can rest; but best Of all To look upon is
q green grssss plot or green trees. The
