1873 and 1898, the great Northefn
hetd-quite 90 Numerous roaming
through the Dakotas, Wyoming md
Ne6jana, werv destroyed in like
manner. The hunters resolved on
Al average $3.50 to % so per hide,
to b shipped out Of the country
and sold for lsashsr making, belt
ing, harness and kindred purposes.
Many thousands Of men were on
gagged in the enterprise. The most
successful hunting parties consisted
Of Z hunter and shout six men
known ~ "strippers." The time
usually selected for taking tho buff
faloes was just after they had been
erasing in the morning, had gone
to the water and then returned to
tho high ground, lying down to rest
in punches of from twenty to .
hundred. The hunter, with the
longest range rife Of the heaviest
caliber be could obtain, would FIRE
from tho leeward side, 90 far away
that tho crack of the rife could not
be heard by the buffalo, and being
behind q bush or bunch of grass,
could not be seen. In that way he
would kill from q dozen to hum
dred a day, without disturbing the
herd to any great extent. The buff
falo receiving a mortal wound would
bleed to death, while the others
about him, smelling the blood,
would sometimes come near him
and paw the ground, and 80 stand
until they too would receive their
death wounds. The shippers would
then come up with OK teams, take off
the hides, place them in the wagons,
and transport them to the nearest
railroad station, whence they we're
shipped to market. At one station
alone on the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe Railroad as many as $780,
600 hides were shipped in one year.
After the hides were removed,
the carcass would be poisoned in
many cases, some yearling buffalo
being generally selected, and next
morning there might be found forty
or fifty dead wolves lying scattered
around, victims of strychnine. In
this way large game was rapidly
destroyed, together with countless
numbers of wolves that had thrived
only by preying upon them. This
might seem like cruelty and waste
full extravaganza, but tho buffalo,
like the Indian, stood in the way of
civilization and the path of prog
ress, and the decree had gone forth
that they must give way. It was
impossible to herd domestic stock
in a country where they were con-
stantly liable to be stampeded by
the moving herds of wild animals.
The same territory which a quarter
of century ago was supporting
those vast herds of wild game is now
sustaining millions Of domestic
animals which afford the food sup
ply to hundreds of millions of peo-
pie in civilized countries.-North
American Review.

DINNER PARTY ETIQUETTE.

A HOSTESS should introduce her guests to each other at small dinner party.
 WEEK or ten days is considered sui ficient notice for dinner invitations.
 GUESTS at dinner always go in pre- vious to the daughters of the host or hostess.
 DINNER party invitations are always issued in the names of the host and hostess
 No ATTEMPT at music or amusement of any kind is made in the interval be- fore dinner.
 A GENTLEMAN always offers his right arm to the lady whom he takes in to dinner and places her at his right hand at table.
 WHEN there are more gentlemen than ladies present at dinner party those gentlemen for whom there are no ladies follow the hostess to the dining-room.
 IT is not now the custom, as formerly, for brides during the first months of their marriage to take precedence of other ladies at dinner party, unless their rank or position entities them to do so.
 WHEN dinner party is given by m unmarried or widow lady the gentle man second in social position should be asked by the hostess to lead the way to the dining-room, taking in the lady to whom precedence is due.

He uill Not Droun Himself.
(grotn tt1 Troy. Y. r, TYmes. )

E. ". Edwards, of Lansingburg, was prostrated by sunstroke during the war, and it has entailed on him peculiar and se- rious consequences. At present writing Mr. E. is prominent officer of Post Lyon, G. A. R, Cohoes and a past aide de camp on tho staff Of he commander-in-chief of AL bany Co. In the interview with reporter, he said:
 fI was wounded and sent to the hospital at Winchester. They sent me together with others to Westinghouse ride of about 100 miles, Having no room in the box cars we were placed face up on the bottom of flat cars. The sun beat down upon our unpro- tected heads. When 1 reached Washington was insensible and was unconscious for ten days while in the hospital. An abscess gathered in my ear and broke; it has been gathering and breaking ever since The result of this 1G0-mile ride and sunstroke was heart disease, nervous prostration, in- somnia and rheumatism. A completely shattered system which gave me no rest night or day. As last resort l took some Pink Pills and they helpedme to a wonder ful degree My rheumatism is gone, my heart failure, dyspepsia and constipation are about gone, and the abscess in my ear has stopped dischargiDg and my head feels as clear as a bell when before 1t felt as though it would burst, and my once shat tered nervous system is now nearly sound. Look at those fingers MT Edwards said, "do they look as if there was any rheuma- tism thereln He moved his fingers rapidly and freely and strode about the room like a young boy. "A year ago those fingers were gnarled at the joints and so stiff that could not hold pen My knees would swell up, and l could not straighten my leg out. My joints would squeak when l moved them. Thatis the living truth.
 "When I came to think thatl was going to be crippled with rheumatism, together with the rest of my ailments, l tell you life seemed not worth living. l suffered from despondency. l cannot begin to tell you, II said Mir. Edwards, as he drew long breath, what my feeling Is at present l think if you lifted ten years right off my life and left me prime and vigorous at forty-seven, could feel no better. 1 was an old man and could only drag myself painfully about the house. Now l can walk of without any trouble. That in itself" continued Mir. Edwards, "would be sufficient to give me cause for rejoicing, but when you come to consider that l am no longer what you might call nervous and that my heart is ap- parently nearly healthy, and that l can sleep nights, you may realize why may ap- pear to speak in extrayagant praise of Pink Pills These pills quiet my nerves, take that awful pressure from my head, and at the same time enrich my blood. There seemed to be no circulation in my lower limbs a year ago, my legs being cold and clammy at times. Now the circulation thereis as full and as brisk as at any other part of my body. 1 used to be so light headed and dizzy from my nervous dis order that I frequently fell while crossing the floor of my house. Spring is coming and I never felt better in my life and am looking forward to busy season of work

 DR. LEKNER, of Zurich, by chemical and mechanical means practically su- persedes the silkworn, and spins from such raw material as cotton waste, jute waste or wood pulp thread which even the expert eye can hardly distin- guish from that of the natural cocoon.
 NJ. FREMONT has proved by expert ment that water kept for twenty min utes at 176 degrees Fahrenheit loses all the deleterious germs it may have con tained without bssng deprived of it's gases or precip,tating the salts con tained in it, and the flavor is not modi fed.

 Crime.

NEW ORLEANS, July 27.-A special to the Daily States from Hattiesburg, Miss says:
 The negro, Tom Johnson. after be- ing taken from jail at this place Wednesday night by a mob of 100 men, made his escape reaching the Hartsfeld residence. The entire day Thursday was devoted to his capture, which occurred at 4 o'clock in the evening.

 And the lips of the lowland springsi- From sibylline tongues that tell
 The truths that the ages teach, Loosed from the days deep spell
 Into soft articulate speech In the still and sweet of the night

 Free from the fret and feud. Close to the earth's warm breast

Change of Life.

When woman approaches the change of life she is liable to have return of all the menstrual Arrangements, and other ailments that afflicted her in former years. The di- rect action of McEtree's Wine of Cardui on the organs afflicted, make it the best remedy for use during this period.
 Mrs D. Pennington, West Plains, Mo, says: .sI had been suffering from change of life and 1t took the form of dropsy. The doctors told my husband it was useless to prescribe for me any more. About that time we got Dr. mcEiree's book on the treat ment of female diseases and decided to try the Wine of Cardui Treatment After us- ing nine bottles 1 am we'll"
