MISTAKES OF HISTORIANS.

Horatius neve r defended the bridge. The
story was manufactured by the same gifted
author who gave the world the account OF
Scevola's heroism.
The newsthat Napoleon had escaped from
Elba was not communicated to the allied
sovereigns at a hall in Vienna. 1t came late
one night and was given out the next day.
There was probably no such man ~
Romulus. The first historian who men,
tons him lived at q distance of time so
great ~ to throw eXtreme discredit on the
story.
Louis XIV was not gigantic in stature,
as represented by contemporary historians.
When, during the French revolution, his
body was dragged out Of its sarcophagus in
the crypt of St. Denis, it was found to be 5
feet 8 inches in height
Queen Elizabeth was not the angelic crea-
ture represented in the histories and poems
of her own times. Her hair was red, her
temper redhot. She sometimes drank too
much and mt any provocation would curse
like a trooper. She frequently swore at her
maids and sometimes struck. kicked and
pinched them.
The army Of Xerxes has always been
greatly overestimated by historians. Com
monty computed at 100000, the best evil
dence goes to show that, camp followers
and all, it did not exceed 100000. His
thousands Of ships" numbered only 1,2O0
to begin with, and Of these 400 were lost in
a storm, so that he reached the coasts of
Greece with about SOO.-St. Louis Globe

Animal Thunder.

What animal can make the NEST noise?
The elephant. During the breeding sea-
son in the forests Of India and Ceylon the
trumpeting and roaring Of the animal are
continuous and terrific and can be heard
for miles. The feline family are wont to
scare their prey thoroughly by their over
powering noise. Thus the roar of the adult
lion is terrific, the windpipe being enlarged
so as to give the animal a larger volume Of
air prop~ortionately than any other animal.
The male gorilla has an awful, loud sound
ing voice. When attacked, it utters a
short, jerking, acute bark like that of an
angry dog. To this succeeds a low growl-
ing whick might be mistaken for distant
thunder .-Chicago Herald.

Things Worth Remembering.

When you feel a kline of Ronsness about

not sit we'll and that you are about to hsye
q tit of indigestion.
When you begin 10 feel nervous and are

gestion Ia surely upon you.
When this fit of indigestion Is repeated

into dyspepsia.
Remember that three to ten Of BRAN

a gentleman of Winnipeg. Canada,
who has just been on a business trip
into the Northern wilderness of that
country, says that there are great
numbers of buffalo still alive there.
They are wood buffalo. but it is said
that they are to all appearance the
same as the animals once SO numerOu
on our Western plains. 1t is said tina,
more than POO of them were killed by
the Indians in the Slave Lake district
this season. They are slaughtered fol
their hides.
The question. where did these Woo
buffalo SO suddenly come from. now
naturally suggests itself. The Indians
and traders had long ago given up hope
III ever seeing any again. TIE Theory
and "A plausible one it is-which i.
advanced 10y the traders. is that the
remnant of the large herds that once
roamed through the prairies and for
ests of the far Northwest found feed
ing ground secluded from the custom

the Winchesters of the hunters. an(

unusually severe. and thus the animal.

food. and wandered into the track o.
the Indians, who only too eagerly
rushed among them and slaughtered
them right and left.
