A LAND OF THE POOR,

From Calcutta to Benares we have
passed over 500 and odd miles of flat land
densely populated. The peasants we're
as poor as people can be and live. The
Villages were miserable mud huts or
rather novels. They drew water from we'll
IN buckets either by their own hands or
with oxen yoked to the long we'll rope, to
I'LL the bitches which irrigate the fields,
or they scooped 1t from bayous or canals
with canoe-like troughs. one end of .he
trough being at the edge of the ditch, the
other end dipping into the water, and
lifted by sweep like the old well-sweeps
at home long since discarded as beng
too labo.lous and SLOW process for sup
plying the kitchen and washtub. These
people cut their rice and wheat with a
knife hardly half as good as the reap
hook OF our grandfathers. They then
thrash out the grain by whipping the
sheaf over stone or by beating it with
bamboo fails. They then carry the win
moved crop to market on the backs of
bullocks or little asses, or if they be OF
richer class IN wooden wheeled (all wood
carts built on models IN use centuries
ago. With boundless plains where for
ests might be grown, they cook their
meals over fires made of burnt straw and
grass. or of cakes of dried COW droppings.
This they gather up and knead 1t with
their hands, and then cover the sides of
the houses with the dainty cakes to dry,
as we ornament our parlor halls with
pretty plaques. The COW and the goat.
the buffalo and the sheep, the donkey
and the children all share with the master
his miserable abode, faripg as does his
wife and his naked little ones. only hav-
ing larger share of the house for their
sleeping rooms.

This Frog Weighed a Ton.

The labyrinthodon, huge creature
resembling toad or frog, and which
lived in the earlier periods of our
planets history, has recently been
found in surprising state of preser-
walton in the mari beds of Huezel-
weitz, Hungary. All species of this
gigantic frog are now extinct and are
known to the naturalists only through
the investigations of the biologists,
who have often found parts or entire
fossils of the monster in strata of the
triassic portion Of the mesozoiC period.
Southwick mentions in three-line
entry in his "Quizzism and Key" I'M
der the head a Frog as Large as an
Ok" and in Barnett's Geological
Epochs" it is considered in a chapter
on Huge Frog-Like Creatures of the
Mesozoic Age" The specimen I'M
earthed in the Hungarian mari bed is
entire, with the exception OF the left
forearm and the lower jaw. The
skull measures eighteen inches be-
tween the eye-sockets and weighs. ex-
elusive of the missing under jaw. 312
pounds. The bones which have been
discovered up to date (and there is
still hopes of finding the missing
parts), with the adhering matrix,
weigh 1860 pounds. almost a tom

RECENT DISCOVERIES.

Although many new and important dis
coverleS have recently been made in various
sciences, there is probably none of greater
Importance to the people than the one re-
Gently made by DR.. Shoop, which is attract
ing the attention of physicians and all class
es OF people throughout the world.
We refer to the discovery as to the cause
of chronic diseases of the stomach, liver, kid
neys and internal organs.
The doctor has traced the cause 10 certain
nerves that have control of these organs, and
by prescribing DR.. Shoop's RESTORATIVE, a
preparation he prepares to act upon these
special nerves, the cause is removed and with
it the disease.
