They Want Some Eyesh Scaed.

The Pamunkey Indians, VINO dwell
on a reservation about twenty-five
miles from Richmond, Va, which they
hold on condition of paying certain
annual tribute to the state, have sent
a delegation to the Worlds fair to in
vite other civilized Indians to come
and settle on their reservation and
amalgamate with their tribe. The
Pamunkey have fine lands and are in
prosperous circumstances, but they
have intermarried so long that the
tribe is in danger of extinction. The
only hope. they think, is to obtain an
intermixture of fresh blood. The dele
gates took the precaation of obtaining
from the governor of Virginia cer-
tifcate to the effect that they were
genuine Indians, and had a secure
tenure of their lands.

Lizard Meat.

There is found on the edge Of Death
valley, in California, a lizard some
what similar TO the Gila monster, al
though more agile. 1t is strictly
vegetarian. This fellow is called the
chuckawalla by the Coahulla Indians,
who are said to be very fond of his
flesh. The meat of this cousin of the
dread monster is very white, tastes
like chicken, and Americans who have
eaten it are not reported to have
turned up their noses at it.

Come to the Rescue.

As surely as any known effect follows cause,
just so surely will diseases OF the kidneys sue
ceed their inactivity, If that inaction be not
promptly remedied. Come to the rescue with
healthful impulse to the action of both the
kidneys and the bladder without exciting
them, like an unmedicated stimulant Rem
dered active by this genial diuretic and tonic,
they perform their functions thoroughly and
regularly, removing from the system impuri-
ties which beget rheumatism. dropsy, gravel,
Bright's disease diabetes and catarrh OF the
bladder. The contraction of either one of
these formidable maladies is the penalty ex-
acted by nature for indifference TO that plain
warning-sluggish action Of the kidneys. When
this exists, not a moment should be lost in the
use of the remedy indicated. Bear in mind
that the Bitters will relieve with equal prompt
itude disorders OF the stomach, liver, bowels

sure the former against such imper-
fections as shall be positively insight
ly or taint the breath. The advice of
your dentist should be sought as to the
proper tooth powder to use, as many
of the compounds on the market con-
tain harmful acids and gritty sub
stances. There is no surer way to de-
stroy the teeth than by the want of
brushing or rinsing after eating fruit.
In California, where fruit of all kinds
is so cheap for ten months In the year
as to be within the reach of almost the
poorest, beautiful teeth are rarely
found, while it is very common
thing to see even young women with
false teeth. Excess in the use of fruit
sometimes produces undue acidity of
the stomach, which also reacts on the
teeth.
Six ounces of rose water, mixed with
two drains of chlorate of potash, is an
excellent purifier of the breath Rinse
the mouth after each meal. For acid
ity of the stomach, which gives bad
breath. use q solution of a teaspOonful
of baking soda and half as much salt
in a glass of water. Drink n little of
this and rinse the mouth well.
A box of the very finest powdered
charcoal, which can only be obtained
at drug store, should be always at
hand. Give the teeth an occasional
brushing with it, or rub n little be-
tween the interstices of the teeth at
night, brushing it out in the morning.

Cannot BurY the Dead.

The Egyptian medical man, who
was not long ago sent to Mecca to re-
port as to the actual condition of the
cholera there, says that the half Of
the horrible story has not been told.
The deaths from cholera in that city
are double the number officially re-
ported. In the valley of Mouna it is
found impossible to bury the dead,
and the road from Mouna to Mecca is
strewn with corpses, left to tester
where they died. In Mecca itself
many bodies lie rotting for days be-
fore they can be buried. 1t is GER
tainly time for Europe to take some
steps to make the sultan clean up this
plague spot. 1t has poisoned the
world long enough.

Maybe. I notice that no one really

The Dog Saved Them.

A fire occurred in a small frame
cottage occupied by two families in
Jersey City few nights ago, and its
occupants barely escaped Nth tfeir
lives. They would all PROBABLY have
been burnt to death but for pet dog.
The animal discovered the fire aud
raised tremendous barking, until he
succeeded in arousing his owners.
He then ran to the cradle, where slept
tho baby, of which he was very fond,
upset it, and taking the little one by
the clothes carried it out into the
hall, to the landing of the stair, where
he laid it down, and stood barking

DreaIniand.

! dreamt OF the days of long ago
Last night, when the shadows lay
Cold and dark on the garden walk
And the moorland wild and gray;
! stood where the brook went singing on
Down to the far off sea,
Where the mill-wheel turns with meas
ured sound
OF sweet, weird melody.
l stood by the homestead on the hill,
Where the trees rock to and fro,
The rocks fly by, and the children laugh,
And the hawthorn falls like snow;
could see the lilac and yellow gorse
In the old familiar place;
felt the touch of your dainty hand,
And watched your smiling face.
All me, woke to this saddened life
From that dream of long ago
To miss for ever your presence dear
In my daily cares below.
Only a nest that is empty now,
A song in a minor key,
A love that must ever he incomplete
Till the rest of eternity!

They Never See the Sun.

The Rev. Stopford Brooke is doing
his best to raise support for the
Women's Trade Union League, an or
panization which is intended to raise
the status of the poorest class of women
workers. Speaking on the subject the
other day, Mr.. Brooke said thousands
of these poor women were living on
the very verge of starvation, their
hours of labor protracted to the very
last strain of the rope without a mo-
ment's peace of mind, without mo-
ment's leisure for self-education or for
endowment, and when, with throbbing
ewes and shaking hands and palsied
brain they staggered into bed, 1t is
only to sleep in unhealthy rooms a
sleep that does not rest them, and to
rise day after day for years and years
to the same round of hopeless toll.
The women to whom he alluded
earned from IS to IS n week, while
those a grade above them earned l2s,
for more skilled work, each class Ia
boring ten hours day.

I 60 on living?" one of these workers.

not betray the truth to him.
