Years ago Mr. Neal Dow was pass
ing down Exchange street and no.
ticed gathering of people, among
whom was the mayor OF the city.
In the center Of the group was
country lad about eighteen years
old, crying. The lad had been i'm
posed upon by a noted horse jockey
of the town, who had got the boy
drunk, and then induced him to
swap the horse the boy had driven
into town for an old plug. Upon
hearing this story, and telling the
boy to follow him and lead the jock
ey's horse, Mr.. Dow led the way to
the latter's stable, nearly a mile dis
tant Not finding the jockey in, the
old horse was turned into the stable,
and Mr. Dow, with the country lad
still following, turned to go down
town again On the way they met
the jockey driving in a wagon to
which the lads horse was attached.
That's my horse" said the boy.
Mr.. Dow stepped into the road,
took the horse by the bride. and
called to one of his own employees
who was passing at the time, and
told him to unharness the horse,
which he did, the irate jockey swear
ing the while like a trooper, and
threatening to take the law on Mr..
Dow, who replied, You will always
know where to find me-"
Then, telling the hoy to take the
horse he started to lead the way to
Exchange street, where the lads
wagon had been left
here" said the jockey as
they went, what am | to do with
my wagon ?"
"Do what you like" said Mr..
Dow. 1t is nothing to me-"
AS may be expected, the country
lad was full ofjoy and profuse with
thanks. When he harnessed his
horse lhe said to Mr.. Dow, Now
what can | do for you :"
Promise me not TO drink any
more" And the boy did so. Some
three years afterward Mr.. Dow was
stopped by a countryman in the
street, who, with his mouth stretched
on a broad grin, said, pointing to a
horse, There he is. l hain't drunk
no more" 1t proved to be the lad
for whom Mr.. Dow had recovered
his horse some years before.

A DAYS LESSON.

Bend to the breeze. IT'S the lesson the grasses
Teach US each day in their lowly estate.
Better to bend meath the storm as it passes
Than to be broken by pitiless fate.
Bend but a little, the cloud will pass over;
Then in the lull you can lift up your head.
Straighten yourselves like the grass and the
clover;
Better be bruised and be living than dead.
stand like q rock!' That may do for a hero
Covered with mail and we'll used to his lance,
there are mortals, too many. as we know,
Weakened by failure, coerced by a glance.
Never give up" It is easy to say it
When all your weapons in order are found.
Courage grows fast When we need not dis
play it;
All can be brave when the lions are bound.
Nothing succeeds like success" that is GER
tain,
True as the gospel in these latter days.
Put out the footlights and ring down the cur
tain
II you have nothing that people mus: praise.
Bend to the breeze. IT'S the lesson the grasses
Teach US today; it's a lesson Of love:
Bend till the storm of adversely passes
And the glad sunshine is once more above.

the appointment of efficient medical men

The same authority states that the Chi

with raw drugs, and the patients take the
medicine in decoctions. Chinese surgery
is based upon a brass model representing
the structure and locality Of internal
organs in the human body. The model
is vague and unfit to be used by students
of such an important s%utject. Whereas,
says the writer, the anatomical works OF

modern organizers of armies have con
trived not only to make them terribly
efficient but to inspire them with a
political morality and sense of honor

that from the moment the recruit
passes his first drill lessons discipline
becomes to him a religion, and he will
fire on his father if ordered by the min
lister of war. He becomes, in fact, a

not believe that the possibility of mill

think that when the expected contest

choose to fight, will make a much
harder and longer battle Of it than is
generally imagined. Of course if they
fly without fighting, as Louis Philippe
did, or struggle with the imbecility dis
played by most kings in 1S4S, they will
be beaten; but we entirely doubt

the majority, either in Germany or
Australia or Italy, could get rid of the

law passed in 1889 and involves the con-

TRIED TO WRECK A TRAIN.
Twelye-Year-Old Roy Accused by the Cen

New YORK, October Civilian
Grantham, II, was arrested yesterday
in Yonkers. A detective of the New
York Central railroad charged him with
attempting to wreck a train on the
New York and Putnam railroad, near
Gray Cakes, OF September 26 last. The
lad was a~rraigned before Judge Don
oghue and paroled in the custody of his
parents for hearing. For some time
instructions have been placed on the
track, and several trains have come
near being derailed. On September 26
train No. 70 struck a log placed across
the tracks. A few days before this a
train struck a key of nails wrapped up
in an old sack. Detectives traced the
matter to Grantham and some boys who
attend school in the neighborhood.
Other arrests will be made.
