They cat No Bread.

"Ths cattle herders OF the Argentine
Republic areperhaps the only civilized
people on the globe who eat no
bread" said George j, Giddings OF
New Orleans at the Southern. 81 was
sent to that country year ago by an
English syndicate to buy cattle for
the London market. l penetrated
TOO miles into the interior and for
months lived among the rural folk.
They are the happiest, gentlest and
most hospitable people ever saw.
Their habits are frugal, though not
especially energetic, and, their mode of
life is primitive, but clean and virtuous.
The natives for the most part live in
little mud huts. They subsist entirely
on dried beef and tea made from q
native herb leaf. When they want
meat they kill beef on the pampas,
and after skinning and cleaning him
hang the carcass up to dry in the
blazing sun. After thus exposing it
to the sun for two days the meat is
then III prime condition for the
Argentinian palate after it is cooked.

A NAVIGATING LEOPARD.
He Destroyed 154 People Before
He Was Brought Down.

The Calcutta Englishman contains
q blood-curdling account of the doings
of q man-eating leopard lately shot in
the Rajshahi district, in Bengal. The
monster had destroyed 154 persons
before he was brought down. His
appetite for flesh, his ferocity, his
cunning and his audacity were unex-
ampled IN the leopard tribe, and they
would have done credit to q tiger.
He depopulated whole villages, for
the mere terror of his name sent the
inhabitants flying as soon as he had
seized solitary victim in their
midst.
For miles around the people never
ventured to leave their houses after
nightfall until they heardhe was dead,
but this was no great hindrance to
him. He would seize them from the
verandas when they were smoking the
evening pipe, and sometimes he pene-
trated the very houses in the dead of
night and carried away chiIdren-often
without giving the slightest alarm to
other inmates.
AS O. rule, he killed only one person
at time; but sometimes he killed two
and on one occasion he killed three in
one day. Children aud old women
were his favorite food. Among his
victims there were but six men.
He was impelled by a sheer hank ering
for human flesh, tor he never touched
the cattle.
The villagers began to think the
scourge was demon incarnate, and
1T was impossible to organize them
for the pursuit. At length some twen-
ty elephants were brought together
for an expedition, and a flying column
of British planters set forth in quest
OF the destroyer. They searched for
some time in vain, until an old man
whose wife had been eaten, came to
report that their quarry had taken
refuge ina tamarind tree.
1t was as he had stated, only the
man-eater had by this time hidden
himself in the jungle at the foot of
the tree, and for the moment could
not be found. The place was sur
rounded, and the elephants advanced
in close order to trampIe the fugitive
out ofhis hiding place. This manoeuvre
succeeded after frequent repetitions;
the beast was driven out of cover and
at once riddled with balls. He will
become a legend in the district, and
perhaps deity.

Ice Cream for Medicinal Purpo ses.

Ice Cream for Medicinal Purpo ses.
The value of ice cream as a remedy
for certain intestinal troubles is be-
ing advanced. Some, indeed most,
physicians permit it through typhoid
fever, always insisting it shall be of
the purest make. To the story recent
ly going the rounds in print of the
entire cure of a case of ulcer of the
stomach by the sole and persistent
use Of ice cream may be added that
of a woman. She suffered from a seri.
GUS affection OF the eyes directly trace
able to digestive disturbance and her
physician finally put her upon ice
cream as q sole diet. For eleven
months she literally lived on ice cream
with the result to effect a complete
and apparently permanent cure.
The theory is that the cream furnishes
ample nourishment while tine diseased
intestines chilled from the low tenn
perature of the food, are prevented
from getting up Inflammation during
the proceeds of digestion carried on by
the healthy parts.-Exchange.

Nurses Instead of Missionaries

Miss Collins, Maine girl who has
been obt among the Dakotas as q
miss onary, says the way to civilize
the Indians is by nurses rather than
by preachers and teachers. Instruc-
tions in the care of the sick, the nat
nre of disease and the proper use OF
IN dicine releases them from the
influence of the medicine man." It is
these who, working On the supersti-
tious minds of the Indians, are the
greatest obstacles to their eivi ization.
The Indians have been peculiarly su j.
ceptibIe to epidemic diseases, which
have created greater ravages than
war and pFiYation combind. Miss
Collins instances an epidemic of meas
les in which cleanliness and nnrsing
saved every life bit that of q child
whose grandmother was medicine
woman. When the influence of the
medicine man is gone rs healer
of the body he has lost his power as a
spiritual direct or and the Indians
mind is open to the words of the
Christian teacher and pree her.-N.

beauty-a dream of loneliness the EN-.
bodiment of the poets and artists ideal
when they seek TO express the beauty of
heaven in woman's form.
An only daughter, she was as the
apple of her fathers eye and the pride
and joy of her mother, also beautiful
woman.
Rachel had completed her twenty first
year, and in order to mark the occasion
her parents gave ball, to which some OF
the leading members ofsociety Christian
and Jew alike, were invited. Russia has
been described as a country OF sublime sad
ness, and yet the joyous feelings of the
peoplesfind expression on every possible
occasion in social gatherings in music. in
singing, and in dancing Aaron Arama
was man OF high importance amongst
his co-religionisls in St. Petersburg, and
even the more enlightened Christians re-
garded him with respect and tolerance.
He was rich, and riches go for much in a
land where poverty Is the rule and his
wife and daughter were counted amongst
the most beautiful women in the city.
Her own sex cnvied her, and men without,
respect OF creed or caste gaZed upon her
with longing, and were da7zled even as he
looks upon the sun is dazzled, SO that
when he turns away all else is dark. But
the favored ono was Moshka UNI
anski young man of great promise
little older than she was and who SEEM
ed peculiarly fitted in every way to become
her mate,
Moshka was the son of one of the Chief
Rabbis OF Moscow, and he himself had as
pired to enter the church of his people, and
for that purpose had studied. But at last
by his fathers desire, he had given up
thoughts of the church, and had taken to
the law, in which he promised to distin-
guish himself. Very happy indeed was
Moshka when he thought of Rachel the
beautiful, who was to be his bride; and he
had said to her.
"God is good and the world sublime.
We shall live life OF unolouded happiness,
for love can beautify life, and we love each
other as man and woman never loved be-
fore"
Rachel assented to this, and so they
dreamed as lovers always dream, and they
saw nothing of the dark shadows that were
gathering ahead and out OF which the
lightning was to come and smite them.

CORNY O'TOOLE.

He Captured the Colonel and Took
Him to the Union Men.
When the Union troops reiterated
across the Rappahannock after the
battle o. Fredericksburg, among those
left lying on the field was one Corny
O'Toole.
He was not wounded, nor was he
even stunned, but he fingered behind
till it was too late, and, fearing he
would be taken prisoner, with his
ready Irish wit, hedecided to lie down
among the killed and wounded, hop
ing to find his way back to camp
when night came on.
He had just stretched himself in
comfortable position when several of
the enemy carrying stretchers came up.
"Here's Col. Bunting!" exclaimed
one; as they stopped to examine
Confederate officer. lying near Corny's
feet.
The surgeon knelt by his side to ex-
anime the wound, which was near his
heart.
The Colonel in command was a
short, fat man about 40 years of age,
and to bend over comfortably he had
to rest his elbows on his KEGS. He
stood with his back to Corny when
he opened his eyes. Seeing the little

and then with full force he sent his

Out shot the Colonel, knocking
down three OF the soldiers in his
hurried flight and grazing the surgeons
bald head with his boot as he role
over on the ground.
When they recovered themselves,
they seemed inclined to run, thinking
they had suddenly been set upon by
the enemy from some unseen quarter.
"Wha-what was it," asked the
Colonel, not yet realizing what struck
him.
Il wish you'd notify me beforehand
the next time you want to try to kick
in my head" mumbled the surgeon,
applying plasters to his crown.
: II reckon somebody gave you kick,
Colonel" ventured one ofthe privates,
doing his best to keep from Laughing
in his supepior's face.
"Ha, hal" now came from the
ground, and, looking around, they
found Corny, his eyes still closed, but
a huge grin in his face.
Finding himself discovered, he broke
into q loud laugh, in which he was
Joined by the whole party-alI but
the Colonel.
Taking charge of the prisoner, the
Colonel started off, ordering the rest
to follow.
In small strip of woods near the
Rappahannock, Corny and his captor,
through some means, became separ-
ated from the rest.
Corny, watching his opportunity,
suddenly threw his arms around the
Colonel, pinning them to his sides.
He then dragged him down to the
river and both were ferried across by
some Union soldiers, who were On the
lookout.
Corny told his story, produced his
prisoner as proof and received rs n

that escaped Arama's attention, or he

In few minutes they parted, as their
roads lay in opposite dir ect;ons; and as
Ivan went on his way he was very thought
full, and his thoughts were of the Jews
daughter.
Ivan Alexieff was still little more than q
youth for he was only in his twenty-third
year, and nature had endowed him with
physical attributes that won for him the
respect and envy of his fellows. He was a
young giant in strength; and women had
spoken of him as being handsome as
Apollo" He had been pampcred and
spoilt and had run wild so that between
him and his kinSmen muth friction had
resulted, and his father had at one time
threatened to disown him. For two or
three years Ivan had been out of the
country. He had visited France and Eng
land, and had but recently returned, some
what more restless III spirit, and. with his
views and ideas more undecided than they
were when he went away.
His father was time-seryer, a place
hunter; an interruptions player for the
prizes in life. He was ambitious and craved
for power. and to satisfy his cravings he
would stop at nothing. Tolerance and HUI.
| man brotherhood found no place in his
creed. The only love he knew was love OF
self-and by nature he was a crafty despof,
a pitiless tyrant, For years he had been
secretary to Count Nicholar Suvorof, and
through that nobleman's influence he had
recently been installedin position as Chief
of the Police a position that had been
rendered vacant by the assassination OF
! Alexieff's predecessor. Such was the
father. The son was unlike him in many

| beauty, and was a woman of deep sym-
pathies and of religious turn of mind.
! Ivan had been mucl. under her influence,
and his character, whatever it was, had
| taken its coloring TO some extent from her.
| But in many respects Ivan was all original.
He thought and acted for himself In
matters of love no one cou d guide him.
He had looked upon Rachel the daugh-
ter of Aaron Arama, and his
heart had gone out towards her

ENGLISH CONSERVATISM.
The "Old Fogyism" Existing Among
Business Men.

hho "OIu bOyyi3n' EAiSttH2 among
Business Men.
The London correspondence of O
New York business house writes as
follows: AS All instance of the con-
servatism which exists in almost every
department OF business in London we
will tell you of visit one OF our
statesmen made yesterday to firm of
solicitors in Essex street. Strand. In
the conversation with one OF the
junior members of the firm who Is the
great-grandson of one of the former
partners. our representative was in
formed that the firm had been in
existence for over two hundred years
and that they were now using the
same forms and doing the business in
the same way that they did two
hundred years ago and that most of
their clerks were the grandsons and
great grandsons of former clerks and
that they kept the Same old families
in the business and it was only about
three years ago that the younger
members of the firm were able TO
prevail upon the senior partner to
introduce gas into their otficea Prior
to that time they used candles. When
it was finally decided. in spite of the
senior that gas should be introduced.
he solemnly declared that they were
going to the devil fast Soon after
speaking tubes were introduced from
one floor TO another This was the
last straw the old man could not
stand it any longer and died. This
junior partner who himself states
that they have use for three type
writer's says that many Of their clerks
have been with them for fifty years
and that it is part of the perquisites
of these men to take work home to be
done at night ard that if typewriting
was introduced it would create such a
revolution as to destroy the peace and
happiness of all connected with the
Office. Naturally The clients of such
firm as this are. many of them quite
as conservative (the English word
for old fogy') as the firm themselves. !"
Strange as it may seem. the English
man as an individual is more conser-
vative than the English government
for while English business houses, in
many instances. still copy their bust
ness letters by hand instead o. with
the copying press, and use sand In
stead of blotting paper the several
departments of the English govern
ment do their work with typewriter5,
which they purchase in large num-
bers.
