Khan-who lies with the prophet -

BILE. Unfortunately the maintenance of
the Pax Britannica In the valley of the
Indus requires the constant presence
in that delectable spot OF squadron of
horse and battalion of foot belong
ing to those fine troops, the Punjab
frontier force. In the middle Of June
it Is often impossible to see the COM
pound gate from the verandah at mid
day owing to the prevalence OF a swirl
ing dust storm, and twelve hours later
it may be necessary to pour water over
the bed to render it sufficiently cool to
be laid upon.
Yet the officers Of the Piffers--so-
called by Anglo-Indians as phonetic
way of expressing the initials T. +. F.
manage to live there, and, what is Still
more marvellous, half dozen Regent
street gowns may be seen there when
ever the station foregathers at club or
gymkhana. Not long ago the c. o. at
Bera Ismail Khan had as a daughter
the prettiest girl that was to be set eyes
upon along the whole 1000 miles Of the
Indus. Ethel Townsend was known far
and wide as the pride of the Piffers,
and will tell you another time how she
won the title. Just now wish to place
on record what Major Dalrymple did
for her. Dalrymple did not know, I'M
til Townsend married the only child
Of the chief of the Indus fotilla, that
he would never care for any other
wcman. Mrs. Townsend never even
guessed his secret, but it nearly broke
his heart when she died in giving birth
to the little one who afterward bore her
name.
Ethel always called him uncle, and
next to her love for her father she gave
him the full warmth of her impulsive
affections. But now that she had come
back from a seven years residence in
France and Germany she found that
there was yet another corner vacant in
her heart, and this place was at once
bestowed upon Capt, the Hon. Robert
McGregor Cameron, whom the natives
had christened the Babadursahib, and
who was known to his associates as the
Hon. Bob.
Hence 1t was that when the Guides
to which distinguished section OF the
Punjab frontier force all these people
belonged-were ordered to join an ex-
petition against a particularly obnox-
ious tribe in the Bara Khel. Ethel be-
took herself to Mayor Dalrymple and
cried her pretty eyes out on the score
that Bob would be sure to get himself
killed.
"He won't be in any greater danger
than your father or l, sweetheart"
said the major, at his wits end for
words of consolation, land you have
seen us return safely too often to feel
alarmed now"
"Oh, dad and you have got good sense,
but Bob is such a mad thing-and he
will do something ridiculous, and /
shall never see him again." boohoo.

Useless Work.

When l started in the poultry bust
ness. says a writer in Farm Poultry,
had four Barred Plymouth Rocks, a
trio of Black M;norcas and six mongrel
hens. Finding my room too small for
two breeds. l disposed Of the Minorca
cock and put them all in one pen. The
mongrels contained a preponderance OF
Leghocn blood and laid a small white
egg, the Minorcas large white egg,
and the Plymouth Rocks brown egg,
so that had no trouble in distinguish
ing them. For the year the percentage
of eggs laid by each was as follows:
Two Minorcas 211s per cent; four B.
p. Rocks. 40 per cent; six mongrels, 3S1s
per cent.
Through the months. of April and
May the mongrels laid more eggs than
the other six, but at no other time did
they equal either the Minorcas or Ply
mouth Rocks.
/ have no doubt that a few years
breeding would have raised the stand
ard of the mongrels, but l shall never
spend my time that way. They were
an eyesore to me while had them, and
so long as / can get better, or even il /
could only get their equals as egg pro-
ducers and have a certain amount of
beauty combined with utility, / shall

much at a meal. Drink nc liquid at any

aerated water, with a few drops Of lem
on or orange juice squeezed into it, but
only an hour before or an hour after
meals. You may also take q little white
wine or cider that is not sweet or now

Smoke a little and indulge with mod
Grafton in the other little luxuries to
which you have been accustomed.
Battle often, but do not wet the en-
tire surface of the body at once Exer-
else should be regular. Change your po-
sition as often as possible. Do not re-
main standing or sitting or lying too
long ut a time nor pass too many hours
in bed. Take your meals at a different
hour every day. Never eat at regular
hours, but whenever You are hungry,
and, if it be not too soon before or after

Better eat a dozen times a day than
overload your stomach at two or three
heavy meals at long intervals. Do not

Grief does II kill, and it is indeed
very seldom that heavy sorrow causes
death to any one when in q healthy con
dition. 1t is. however, very often the
indirect cause of death, either by bring
ing disease to a climax or by rendering
the sufferer more liable to its attack. If

studied the matter agree that, through
the force of his own imagination, the
man will actually die from q broken

internal disease, but it is supposed that
it would not have been fatal had not
his spirits been % depressed through

the failure of his cherished hopes and
plans. And there have been many other
such instances in this country. When
