HEALTH MI GXiMa.

Six thousand persons die in New
York city oyery year from wasting.
diseases. This statement, in the light
OF Tho knowledge that every one of
these cascG was, in the first instance
pseventaolc. shows how desirable it is
that everyone should understand now
TO avoid taking the disease"
These are the words OF a wclt-kSown
physician, and hero arc Some valuable
suggestions made by him:
1t is indigesssDlo food and food
taken ct the wrong timo which causes
that condition OF tho system which per
mi,s the taking of cold. Whatsoever
tends 20 weaken digestion and impov.
crlsn the blood hurts the entire system
ana opens tho Way to disease"
Tho symptoms Of INDIGESTION are
usually flushed face, spots OF blurs
before the eyes, flashes OF light. zig gag
lines or chains, sense OF fullness over
the etomSch, belching, des poudency,
etc, often followed by tho most severe
headaches. These symptoms are usually
relieved when the gas is expelled from
tho seomsch.
Whenever person gets run down in
strength, reduced 10 weight or becomes
thin by reason of some wasting disease,
IL is very fashionable to commence what
might be we'll called the stutling pro.
cess. Cod liver oil preparations, fsri-
naceous foods, beef teas, concocsions of
malt, oats, second rate wines and beef
extracts are given to the unfortunate
person continually, thus running what
little digestive power no has left and
causing untold suffering. II allowed to
make suggestion, would say tina. in
place of this, Paskola, the pre.digcsted
food, should be given. This not only
builds up sound healthy flesh, but rests
and strengthens tho digestive organs in
remarkable way"
Food to tho body is what fuel is to
the engine. Life ceases when nourish-
ment stops, and the machinery won. 90
when the steam disappears"
when man suffers from Indigestion
there are seldom any fatal results, but
when what the doctors call "complica-
tions" set in, then is the time to pray"
1.-The germs of consumption have no
power over healthy tissue. Before they
can attack or injure anyone. that person
must DO run down in health in some
way, either by worriment. exposure or
cold, long continued indigestio or over
work or over study. Such persons
should always exercise great care and
use the best and most advanced dis
coveries. For this purpose Paskola is
unequalled."
Pssko!a may be obtained of any repu.
table druggist. A pamphlet on food
and digestion will be mailed free on ap-
plication to tie Pre- Digested Food Co.,

Putnam's Test.

Some four years before the War of Inde-
pendence Putnam offended naughty Regu-
lar officer (whO looked upon the Provinclals
with contempt) by asserting that the latter
were as courageous as the former. The dis
pute ran high, and at length the scarlet
coated Lieutenant asked scornfully:
Dare you fight duel with me?"
Yes, at any moment" answered the Pro-
yincial Major.
Then challenge you," said the Lieuten-
ant; choose your weapons"
Two kegs of gunpowder-one for you
and one for me-are the weapons / choose"
said Putnam; "the time tomorrow morn
ing at sunrise, the distance 10 PAGES. The
method You to sit Oh one keg and on the
other, and slow fuse attached to each to be
lighted; and the one who sits longest shall
be declared the victor"
The Lieutenant was annoyed, but was
compelled TO accept the strange cOndi-
tions. Putnam was to furnish the kegs of
powder and the fuses, and, at the appointed
time the next morning, they were at the
designated places. The combatants seated
themselves, and the fire was applied to the
fuses. As it went flashing along the Lieu
tenant became uneasy and turned pale,
while the Major sat composed and smiling
in the presence of threatened danger. AS
the fire drew near the kegs the Lieutenants
courage failed him. and he arose and fed,
while his antagonist, unappalled, remained
seated until the fuse was exhausted. The
kegs were filled with onions. The Lieuten-
ant almost died of chagrin.

Various Uses of Musk.

Although pure musk is not usually relished
by the delicate olfactories of persons with
cultivated sensibilities, there is no odor 50 ex-
tensively used in the compounding of per-
fumes II is obtained from tho musk deer
which inhabitS the mountain ranges of
Thibet.
This animal is smaller than the deer of this
country, being about the size of calf 1t is
of dark gray color, and has no horns. The
odor for which it is valuable is a fluid secretion
in sac On the under side Of its body This
is exposed to the air, and when dry is sent TO
market When first obtained it is about the
consistency of honey, and has a bitter, pun
gent taste. 1t is used as a medicine, but has
more value as perfume,
On account of the persistency with which
musk retains its odor it is used az the ground
work for other perfumes, which are more
volatile. 1t is said that single grain of musk
Will perfume a room for 90 years So strong
is it that it has been estimated that 5000
parts of a substance, in itself devoid of odor,
will become permeated with the scent with
one part of musk. 1t is in consequence very
valuable and, as it is difficult to procure on
account of the almost inaccessible haunts of
the musk deer, it is quite expensive, being
worth about $25 an ounce.
Chemists have long endeavored to produce
an artificial musk, but they have not as yet
been successful

SnaIe-Kiiiins Iguanas.
fG Io,lis 1Iabe- DgInorrUt- I

In South America" said A. L. Vincent,
of New Orleans, snakes are very namerous,
but their enemies are also numerous Per-
haps the most notable of these snake-killers
is the large lizard known as the iguana.
The iguana is no mean adversary, as may be
Judged from the fact that dogs which attack
one often come off with a broken leg. The
lizard does not wait for the snake to take
the offensive, but goes swiftly in pursuit,
and being very rapid in its motions rarely
has any difficulty in overteking its victim,
which it dispatches with blows from it's
powerful tail. ! remember funny expert
ence had with one of these lizards which
clearly illustrated its hatred for snakes.
was riding with friend in search of cattle.
My lasso was attached to the saddle and the
end traiIed along the ground behind me.
"A big iguana lay in the sun apparently
asleep. It paid no attention to my horse as
it passed, bat the next instant it raised its
head and fixed its attention on the 20 feet
of lasso slowly trailing by. Suddenly it
rushed after the rope and dealt it a success
sion of violent blows with its tail. When
the whole of the lasso, several yards Of which
had been pounded in vain, had been dragged
by, the lizard, with npiifted head, continued
to gaze after it with evident astonishment.
Never before had such wonderful snake
crossed its PATH -l -

The People of Hawaii.
Isl. Louis Gtobc Demoerat.l


"I know of no more hospitable people in
the world" said Capt. A. G. Alexander, of
Washington, than the common people of
Hawaii. II you ask for lodging at nightfall
at n native hut you are received as if you
were c0nf=rring favor, frequently the whole
house, which has but one room, is set apart
for you, the people going elsewhere to sleep.
a chicken is slain in your honor and for
your exclusive supper, and you are served
by the master OF the house himself. The
native grass house, where it has been well
built, is very comfortable structure. 1t has
but one room, calico curtains serving as
partitions by night. At one end standing
bed place, running across the house, pro-
vides accommodations for the entire family,
no matter how numerous.
"This bed consists of mats, and the covers
are either tappa cloth (which is as though
you were sleeping under newspapers or of
blankets. The more prosperous people have
often, besides this, an enormous bedstead
curtaned off and reserved for strangers and
you may see the women go to chests when
you ask for hospitality and take out bIan-
kets, sheets, and any number of little pill
lows for the bed, and often a brilliant silk
cOyerlet. The use of the dozen or SO pill
lows puzzled me, until l found that they
were intended to tuck OF wedge me in so
that / should not roll around in the big bed
On taking your departure the next morning
it is not well to ask the cost of your accom-
modations, as the Hawaiian has vague ideas
of prices. He might tell you $40 OF $40;
whereas if you hand him rs cents for your
self and guide he will be abundantly salts
fed"

A Lucky Hit.

A large operator and speculator Of st.
Louis, whose account with one friendly
bank had often been temporarily overdrawn,
wanted $4,000 once for certain deal, his
balance in bank at the time being less than
500. The cashier suggested that he should
draw upon some party not too near to st.
Louis. Smith said he did not know whom
to draw upon.
"Oh, any one,n said the obliging cashier,
=" rs long as the party is far enough away
that Will give you time to turn around"
Smith drew at sight for $4,000 on the
Sultan of Turkey. The draft was duly for
warded by the bank, reaching New York,
whence it was sent to London correspond
ent. 1t then came into the hands of the
Rothschilds, who forwarded it to their Con-
stsntinople branch, where it was duly pre-
sented for payment to the Sultan's Cham
berlain, the latter bringing it to his high
ness.
"Who is this John Smith ?n said the Sui
tan.
Don't know replied the Chamberlain.
Do we owe him anything?"
No." replied the other.
Then I'll not pay it," replied his high
mightiness.
"One moment if might advise" said the
astute counselor. "This draft comes through
the Rothschlds, with whom we are seeking
100000 loan. Would it be safe, under
the circumstances, TO dishonor it 2"
Pay it." said the Sultan.
And il was paid, and no one was more as
tonished than John Smith, of st. Louis, and
the quick witted cashier.

Fondness for Animals.
IL N IL


There are numerous anecdotes about noted
people who were fond of animals, and we
are pretty sure that they were fond of them
when they were boys and girls. Daniel
Webster loved his calves dearly, and used
to get his son Fletcher out of bed before
daylight 10 hold the lantern while he fed
the cows. FLETCHER" he would say, "you
don't seem to take any interest in this.
like to look into the kind faces of the cows,
and smell their breath" When Choate was
his guest he used to rap at the door of his
room where he was reading, and call to the
great jurst, oh, come along, Choate; let's
20 and have look at the pigs" Webster
ordered his farmland to drive the oxen past
the library windows, so that he could tell
them g0od-by 2" before he died.
Itwas said of Edmund Burke that he had
gone crazy. because lie went about his park
kissing his cows and horses. The story arose
from the fact that favorite horse belonging
to his dead son came up to Mr.. Burke in the
field, laid his head upon his breast, and
looked into his face, as if TO say, II have
lost him too" Overcome by his memories,
Burke clasped the neck of the intelligent
creature and kissed it.

who kept relic stand on the battlefield of

last one yesterday, but we can have you one
by tomorrow" The SCARED and begrimed
old Bucktail, however, knew all about Gen.
Reypoldss bullet, so he didn't order any !;
but he bought dilapidated csnteen from
