shoes held near St. Petersburg, while
the thermometer was twenty-five de-
grees below zero, was attended by
excellent results, compared with
ordinary exercises at that time, at dis
tsnces from 600 TO 1900 PAGES. The
formations were briskly executed, the
lines exactly formed, and the men
were able to shoot in all positions
lying down, kneeling down, or stand
ing. :
As reconnoiterers the snow-shoed
messengers and Tiralleurs are said to
have done wonders. They succeeded
in reaching out-of-the way places
which could neither be approached by
horse nor bicycle, making extremely
quick time. This is an entirely new
aspect of snowshoe superiority, and
the armies of the Triple Alliance will
make haste to follow suit, though the
advantage of originality will always
be with Russia; it must also be con-
sidered, in comparing the chances of
success of snowshoe troops belonging
to the Russian, and the German, and
Austrian armies, respectively, that the
Muscovite takes quite naturally to this
branch of the service, which he is
more or less familiar from the days OF
his youth. The Russians, too, manu-
facture their own snowshoes in the
artisan shops attached to each regi-
ment. The powers of the Triple Alli-
ance buy theirs in Scandinavia. 1un-
derstand that Germany has just or
dered large supply at Christiania
for use of the frontiers guard at the
Vosges.
While dry rot seems to have taken
hold in the bicycle corps of the armies
of the Triple Alliance. and of Russia.
and while France records no further
advancement than additional speed in
her military wheel efforts, England
has made great strides of late in the
direction of finding further uses for
the bicycle, and at the same time her
riders are taught the noble art of self
defense or even taking the offensive.
Bicycles are now used in the British
army to carry ammunition. The
machine is constructed as follows: The
case containing the war material is
placed on two-wheeled wagon drawn
and preceded by twelve men riding
behind each other on six bicycles.
The speed of this machine is from nine
and half to fifteen miles an hour. 1t
can travel over any kind of ground,
the wheels being covered with rubber.
The occupant of the first wheel mar.
shals proceedings, the rest of the men
only follow suit, working their arms
and legs. It is claimed that the ma
chine is not frequently subjected to
accidents, and that as o means of car
rying ammunition to On outpost it is
without equal, being noiseless and
swift at the same time. The machines
will probably be generally adopted for
use in fortresses. In case an English
bicycle corps is attacked or finds it
advantageous to take the offensive the
men form carre with their machines
after detaching their wheels. Then
part of them crouch down or kneel
down while the others shoot standing.
It may be added that the English
bicycle corps is most appropriately
uniformed while the bicyclists of the
other armies are hampered as much
by useless equipments as by red tape.

ministry obtains it's hawking material
in Flanders, but it is easily seen that
the Falkenswerth institute derives its
raison d'etre from the fact that it sells
its product to those in want of it, and.
while a few English aud Spanish
sportsmen have taken up the ancient
custom of hunting with the bird, their
combined demands do not exceed at
most liberal reckoning from thirty
to fifty falcons per year. What, then,
becomes of the surplus of from 200 to
800 birds which the Fa1kenswerth in
stitute turns out annually?
Falcons are more or less numerous
all over the world and the art of train
ing them is not secret. Indeed,
there is no end of books, some by
royal authors, on the subject. The
method followed at Falkenswerth, the
alleged Russian training school for
hawking, is as follows:
The falcons are either procured

It will, perhaps, require q little stretch of
the imagination on the part Of the reader to
recognize the fact that tho two portraits at
the head Of this article are Of the same in
dividual and yet they are truthful sketches
made from photographs, taken only q few
months apart, Of very much esteemed citi-
zen Of Qlnois-Mr. G. 81. Harris, whose ad-
dress is No. 1922 Second Avenue, Rock
Island, III. The following extract from a let
ter written by MIR. Harris explains the mar
velous change in bis personal appearance: He
covery saved my life and has made me a
man. Myhome physician says I am good for
forty years yet. You will remember that
was Just between life and death, and all of
my friends were sure it was case Of death,
until commenced taking second bottle of
Golden Medical Discovery when became
able to sit up and the cough was very much
better, and the bleeding from. my lungs
stopped, and before bad taken six bottles Of
the Golden Medical Discovery my cough
ceased and I was new man and ready for
business.
I now feel that It Is duty that I owe 10
my fellcv-men to recommend to them the
Golden Medical Discovery which saved my
life when doctors and all other medicines
failed to do me any good.
I send to you with this letter two Of my
photographs; one taken Few weeks before
was taken down sick in bed, and the other
was taken after was well" These two pho
tographs are faithfully reproduced at the
head Of this article.
Mr.. Harris's experience in the use Of Gold

one. Thousands Of eminent people in all
parts of the world testify, in just as emphatic
language, to its marvellous curative powers
over all chronic bronchial, throat and lung
diseases, chronic nasal catarrh, asthma, and
kindred diseases.
Eminent physicians prescribe "Golden
Medical Discovery when any Of their dear
ones lives are imperilled by that dread dis
ease, Consumption. Under such circum-
stances only the most reliable remedy would
be depended upon. The following letter is to
the point. It Is from an eminent physician Of
Stamps, Lafayette Co., Ark. he says :
Consumption is hereditary In my wife's
family some have already died with the dis
ease MY wife has a sister, Mrs. E. A.
Cleary, that was taken with consumption.

New York Through Southern Eyes,

The life which men have lived to make
New York and the east what they are is a
life which is fatal and poisonous. It is a
life wherein men are old and withered
at 80 and in whose struggles and passions
hearts break and brains give way every
day under strain and excitement which
are too terrific for human endurance.
There has been too much work, too fast
work and a whole tendency perverted and
wrong. New York progress has been in
business,a hand to hand battle of merci-
less selfishness. Memphis Commercial.

Little robe of snowy hue,
Daintily embroidered, too,
Softest garments all in white,
Greet the baby's wondering sight.
Every stitch hope enrolds,
Which .he loving mother holds.
Fen the filmy lace unfurls
Threads of love in tiny pearls.
Other loves are deep and true,
But a mothers, ever new,
Keeps its luster burning bright
Fed from fountains of delight.
Thus her loving care provides
And each infant footstep guides,
Watchful, lest the tender feet,
Straying, might some pitfalls meet.
Baby's eyes-ah, we forgot!
Say, hast ever been thy lot,
Gazing in those depths, to see
Mirrored there reproof for thee?
