Vigo-not the Spanish city of that name.

the morning and its arrival at supper time.
To do honor to both of these, the Vigan

fl ON the farther side of the incoming train
and beckoned to a man who stood in the
shadow of loaded coke car on the mine
siding.
How are you. Layne? Let's get away
from here before anybody recognizes me-"
he said. "You got my letter."

Good. 1 hope 1t won't put you out to
take care of me-"

Layne, reproachfully. He was a Tennes-

some sort birthright. and Inspector Jaf-
fray was an old friend.

he negotiated with the brakeman to as

small when he found it was General
Schofield, though immensely relieved
to know that he had not undertaken to
show how the distinguished officer
might have improved upon his military
movements. Washington Star

A Well-Deserved Pension,

In its last hours congress passed a
bill to give General Harrison G. Hobart
of Wisconsin a pension of $50 month.
General Hobarts case was one of par
ticular merit. He went out in 1861 as
captain in the Fourth Wisconsin and
the next year was promoted to lieuten-
ant-colonel of the Twenty-hrst Wiscon-
sin. He afterward became colonel of
that regiment, and served until the end
of the war. He was taken prisoner,
and was one of those who aided Colonel
Streight in planning and digging the
famous tunnel out of Libby prison,
through which he escaped and reached
our lines. He is now eighty years old
and without any means of support.
His wife is a paralytic and has been
confined to her bed for twelve years.

Reassuring Facts in Entomology.

The bureau of entomology has been col
Letting some interesting information late
ly about scorpions centipeds and taran-
tulas. Respecting these creatures all sorts
of nonsensical beliefs are prevalent, and
travellers who have visited tropical regions
disagree es to the effects of their bites.
That the poison of any one of the three is
apt to be deadly has often been asserted
The question derives particular impor-
tance from the fact that the animals are
constantly imported into this country In
punches Of bananas and among other
fruits from lower ATTITUDES.
Tarantulas are simply big spiders of the
kind that build houses with trapdoors
Their bite is very severe and painful, the
scar lasting for long time; but, though
1t produces violent Inflammation for q
short time, it Is not dangerous to life.
Such, at all events, is the belief Of Pro
fessor G. V. Riley. In regard to the cen
tipped Professor Riley says that its bite in
warm climates Is sometimes excessively
virulent and painful, though at other
times, oddly enough, the poison cat es
little Inconvenience. That it is ever fatal
Is not believed.
Scorpion stings are very painful indeed.
They are dangerous in proportion to the
size of the animal, its age and the state of
irritation in which it may be. Tcmpera-
ture also has an influence upon the venom.
1t may be that the sting is occasionally
followed by death, but such cases must be
very rare. There is no doubt that tho
sting of certain species commonly found
in South America causes fever, numbness
In various parts of the body, tumors OH
the tongue and dimness of sight. These
symptoms last from "a to As hours The
effects produced diminish in violence with
repetition, so that IA person who has been
stung many times may become actually
proof against the poison.
Some scorpions are much worse than
Others. The rather small, slender, pale
colored kinds have the worst reputation
In warm ATTITUDES certain places are near
ly free from scorpions, while Others arc
overrun by them, for reasons not well I'M
derstuod They are extraordinarily nu-
merous in valley in the TERRA Templada
of Mexico. There it is hardly possible to
turn over stone without finding three or
four small and wicked scorpions of pale

1t is common belief that the legs of
the centiped are poisonous and that they
will leave "A trail that burns like fire if

Too many homes bear this fear-nspir-
Ing placard, denoting the prevalence of
that most insidious and dreaded of all
diseases - Diphtheria.
1t Is to-day a recognized fact among the
best practitioners that nine out of ten
cases formerly considered hopeless may
be brought to happy termination by
the use of that great original raw food
product,
Bovinine.
This great blood-generating, lfe-main-
tanning, ngth-developing, and flesh
producing product of lean, raw meat,
contains the greatest amount of life
preserving qualities in the least pos
sible bulk of any preparation known.
In cases of Diphthera, Bovinine has
special advantages. In this disease, as
in others, the rapldity with which it is
assimilated gives to it a preference over
all other foods, passing, as it does, into
the system Immediately, without causing
the digestive organs to perform any labor.
And considering the fact that the LESSONS
In the throat prevent the swallowing of

sity. In the worst cases. where even

Bovinne
Saves Life
by being used as an injection. Above all,
Bovinine is in itself gcrmcide. and in
all such diseases as Diphtheria. caused by
microbes, it not only performs its greatest
mission of maintaining life but antdotes
the existing bacilli.
Bovinine has done wonders in thousands
OF cases of Diphtheria. When your doctor
uses 1t you may cease to worry, and be
assured of speedy recovery. To neglect
Its use may mean years of remorse in the
feeling that some loved one might still be
with you if everything possible had been
done. Bovinine is sold by all Druggists.
