The Oriental Rider.

Nothing but the knowledge of our old
time Indian enables us to credit the his
torical accounts of the agility and skill
of the oriental. When centuries later
saddles came into use there grew up two
schools of riding-that of the mailed
warrior, whose iron armor we'll chimed
in with his tongues on the wall"
seated in his packed saddle, and that of
the oriental, whose nose and knees all
but touched. Why the eastern rider
clings to his extremely short feathers it
is hard to say, unless it be to place him
the higher above his horse, and therefore
make him the more imposing when he
stands up in his stirrups to brandish
scimiter or matchbox. Yet he is a
wonderful rider, this same oriental, as
indeed is every man who from youth up
is the companion of the horse. Western

How an Eskimo Secures q Wife.

An Eskimo youth is qualified to marry
when he has succeeded in killing polar
bear unaided, for the courageous feat
proves him capable of providing for the
wants of family. He starts forth at
night to secure wife, which he does by
seizing the first girl he can surprise una
wares. She naturally screams and
draws the whole village population
about her, who, by raining sealskin
scourges on his shoulders, aid the maiden
in escaping. He pursues, running the
gantlet of kick and buffet, until he again
catches his lady love. And should she
once more escape and be retaken third
time by the amorous pursuer the maiden
accepts her fate and becomes the young
mans wife.-London Standard.

No Rules for Bringing up Children.

At luncheon where the guests were
mostly mothers one Of them remarked
that she wished there were some cast iron
rules to bring up boys, in which case she
might hope not to go astray so often. An
other mother thought cast iron boys would
be needed to fit the rules. u once met a
woman" she went on to say, "who had a
large family of sons grown to manhood at
the time. 'How did you bring them upT

For ordinary nervous toothache, which
is caused by the nervous system being
out of order or by excessive fatigue, a
very hot bath will SO soothe the nerves
that sleep will naturally follow and
upon getting up the patient will feel
very much refreshed and the toothache
will be thing of the past. For what is
known as jumping toothache," hot dry
