The Beauty of Death.

If there is one thing especially OF
which many people possibly cannot
believe that, under any circumstances,
it would seem beautiful, [ suppose it
must mean death. That must always
be dreadful. Men seldom see any
misery in life so great as to outweigh
the misery or leaving it. But yet 1t
comes to all of US that He who made
death made it, like all things else, to
be beautiful in His time. When a
life has lived it's days out in happi-
ness. grown old with constantly accu-
mulating joys, and then, at last, before
decay has touched it, or the ground
grows soft under its feet, the door
opens. and it enters into the new
youth of eternity; when young man
has tried his powers here and dedlca-
ted them to God, and then is called to
the full use of their perfected strength
in the very presence Of the God whom
he has loved; when man has lived
for his brethren, and the time comes
that his life cannot help them any
longer. but his death can put life into
dead truths; and send enthusiasm in
to fainting hearts; when death comes
as rest to man who is tried with a
long fight, or as victory to a man who
leaves his enemies baffled behind him
IN the shore of time-in all these
times, is not death beautiful? "No-
thing in all his life became this man
like leaving it" they said of one who
died.-FhiiHpS Brooks.

Animal Sentries.

The too eager, sportsman is often
baked Of shot by the watchful SEN
tinel posted to guard the flock or the
herd against surprise. Posting SEN
try is the most universal of the in
stincts which use organization as a
means of defense. Chamois, ibex and
other mountain antelopes always post
a sentinel. Always when herd of
seals are sleeping on the rocks there
is watcher. This instinct, the Spec
tator says, survives even in animal
captivity, az the following illustration
will show.
"When the prairie dogs at the VOC
occupied a small paddock, they always
kept sentinel on duty, although he
seldom uttered his warning whistle,
having learned probably that the visi-
tors would not come inside the railing.
The prairie dogs at the Jardin d 'Ac-
elimatisation of Paris observe the
same precaution." AS is well known,
wild geese are particularly wary in
this respect. Mr.. St. John says that
'they seem to act in so organized and
cautious manner when feeding or
roosting as to defy all danger. When
a flock of wild geese has fixed on
field of newly sown grain to feed IN,
before alighting they make numerous
circling fights, and the least suspicious
object prevents them from pitching. :,
''Supposing that is all right and
they do alight, the whole flock for
space of q minute or two remain mo-
tionless, with erect head and neck,
reconnoitering the country around.
They now appear to have made up
their mind that all is safe and con-
tented to leave one sentry, who either
stands on some elevated part of the
field or walks slowly with the rest
never, however, venturing to pick up
single grain of corn, his whole ener- nc
gies being employed in watching. The
most curious part has to follow.
When sentry thinks he has perform
ed a fair share of the duty, he gives
the bird nearest him sharp peck. "
Mr.. St. John declares that he has
seen the sentry occasionally pull out a
bunch of feathers when the first hint
was not attended to and at the same
time utter querulous cry. Wild
swans are almost as cautious as wild
geese. The signal of danger differs
y with the species of animals, but the
alarm note seems to be universally un-
derstood by the sentinel 8 followers.
Wild geese and swans have q peculiar
call, as of bugle; rabbits and sheep
stamp on the ground; wild ducks utter
a low and cautious quack; elephants,
ibex and mountain sheep whistle

The Successful Advertiser

Is the man who writes something the
people will read, and reading, believe. In
this age of education and enlightenment,
when men read and think for themselves,
all that stuff about "selling goods cheaper
than your competitors buy them," being
the "only competent dealers in the line"
"handling better stuff than anybody
else," &C, is mere clap trap, and subjects
the writer and the firm back Of it to the
contempt of all right-thinking people. The
man who has something to offer, and then
tells the folks about in plain, business
way, is the man who 'gets there" and
getting there, stands.
Lots of people handle Paint. Some
handle one kind, some another, but they
all realize, if they have any business sense
at all. that in order to make that business
a permanent success it is absolutely neces-
sary to give the people the very best ma
terial. This we have tried to do, and at a
price that puts it in the reach of all.
In this connection we call attention to
the fact that crops are about laid by, time
is plentiful, and little paint not only
freshens and beauties, butimproyes Won
derfully the sanitary condition OF the
premises. If your house is all right may
be the fence needs coat. A little Paint
would keep that old buggy from falling
down, and the wagon might last year OF
two longer by spending seventy.five cents
or dollar in Paint on it.
Remember this, the longer you put 1t
off the more it takes and the less good it
does. Remember another thing. 1t costs
just as much, and takes just as much time,
to have cheap paint put on as it does good
Paint. Always buy the best, even If you
pay more for it.

Have You Indigestion ?

"Troublcd with Indigestion, are

it's pity that some one couldn't t

Without paying any attention to
this sighting remark the Jcrseyman

''My brothcr-in-law's wife had a
fine crop Of chickens that summer:
They were all hatched that spring and
were growing we'll, when one day the
whole flock got at a bag Of dry corn
meal and filed their crops full of it.
The first my brother-in-law's wife
knew of this was when the meal be,

man band. You see, the chickens
had either got at water too soon OF
else didn't have gravel enough in theil
crops to grind up the meal, and il
wouldn't digest and seemed likely to
burst them.
"There was no one by to give help
or advice, and my brother-in-l law s
wife was not going to lose that lot OF
more than 100 fine chickens if she
could help it, so she started right in il
to do the best she could. The chill
dren caught the chickens and brought
them to her, and with her buttonhole
scissors she cut slit in each one OF
their crops. She squeezed out the
cornmcal, washed their crops out and
sewed them up again. The chickens
seemed grateful. They were kept
quiet for a couple Of days, fed lightly
and every one of them recovered. y

This business of the apparently dead


returning again to life is becoming too
common to be even startling: "Passaic, n.
J.,August Young August Eandevelde
was iii with dysentery for two weeks and
nobody was surprised on Monday when
it was announced that he was dead. His
father, who is well-to-do hotel keeper,
determined to give him a grand funeral.
While an undertaken was getting the
body ready for it's polished oak casket
this evening he noticed signs Of life. He
called the parents and they revived the
boy, who declared that he had been in q
pleasant sort of dream. He will, it is
thought, soon be entirely well.
The cost of the Debs campaign
against capital, railroads and some other
important interests is set down at S79,-
100000. and, as careful computations
have been made covering the losses sus-
tanned on both sides, the figures may bo
accepted as reasonably correct. Contrary
to general expectation, the item credited
to the destruction of railroad property
$500, ,00O-is an insignificant part in the
total. The consequential or indirect
damages make up the loss account, now
ever, and will never be paid. The rail
road employees are out $50. 100000 in
wages, other employees lose $35, ,000, 900,
and labor, least able to sustain the bur-
den, sacrifices S55,0O0,000 and gots the
worst of it.
- The climate of tho United States is
perfectly adapted to the growth Of cork
wood, and large plantations of it have
been started in Florida and California,
but tree attains the age of 20 years be-
fore the first cutting takes place, and
then the yield is rough, uneven and
coarse in texture. 1t can be used only
for rustic work or as a tanning sub
stance. All the cork wood imported into
America comes from Spain and Por-
tugal. There cork are groves in South
America, but they have not been Under
cultivation as long as the European ones.
and the wood is consequently coarse and
inferior in quality. Algiers has fine
cork wood, but the cost of transporting It
such q tremendous distance renders it
practically unavailable for the American
market,

= Mother-Jane, you must choose

One of the strangest fractures
known to the profession was recently
treated at the Pennsylvania hospital,
where young man appeared with his
arm broken between the shoulder and
the elbow. He said that he had tried
to throw a stone that was too heavy
for him and in bringing his arm around
the bone snapped. 1t seems hardly
possible that the elbow and shoulder
joints should be firm enough to stand
strain that would break the bone,
and the doctors decided that there
must have been some softening of the
bone. Such cases have happened be-
fore, but it has always been With

K Steel is now cheaper than iron.
It hardly seems possible, remarks the
Boston Cultiuator, but the estimates
of cost in a recent bidding for a
bridge in Pennsylvania to be made
with steel strings and steel rivets
was lower than like estimate for the
same bridge made with iron stringers
and iron rivets. Four bids were made
and in each case the bridge could be
made cheaper Of steel than of iron
The successful bid was $1,96o, as
against 50, 157, which was the lowest
bid for the iron bridge. Owing to the
greater strength of steel, the weight
of metal in the steel bridge is much
less than it must necessarily be for one
of iron.
