Wonderful Babylon.

Ancient Babylon may perhaps be
called the most wonderful city of the
world. No less remarkable were the
hanging gardens referred to in the Old
Testament and described by some Of
the early profane writer's. The city
itself was fifty miles in circumference,
it's walls being $50 feet high and 81 feet
thick. The city was built in the center
of a vast plain. The wife of the King
came from mountainous region. and
did not like this ~barrenness. Hence
the famous hanging gardens. They
were suspended over 400 feet in the
air and planted with trees, fruits, and
flowers. No less than 100000 slaves
were employed in their construction.
All this to please his wife.

Nov let me advert to the practice
of arresting the tooth worms. One Of
my relatives was once attacked by a

broken up by restoring activity to

him such an intense suffering that he
could neither eat nor repOSe, but

plaintive that it sent a thrill to the
heart of everyone in the house. On the

his tOothachc state. Finally he sub

is as follows: A chopstick and a silver
pin are the only instruments she re-
quireS in her normal act. She is will
ing to exhibit them to any one who on
cclves an inclination of discerning her
trickery. She brings the chOpstick in
contact with the diseased tooth and
cautiously pokes it through with a
pin in search of the odious worms. At
ter o while ScrapcS out a lump of vel
low minute worms on the chopStick
and immerses it in Il cup of water. Each
lump consists of from ten to fifteen
worms, and sometimes 200 or 800 worms
are scraped if the patient makes an ex-
act bargain at first that the fee should
be betrayed according to the number OF
worms scraped. The general fee is 400

Farewell to the Bootblack.

A recent invention is a shoe-blacking
machine, guaranteed to a V time and
trouble. BY the use Of one of these con
t%rivances the man who is accustomed
to clean his own shoes will no longer
be compelled to exert a large amount
of muscle and breath in the operation.
All he will have to do is to gently turn
a crank and there you are. The mere
act of turning that crank first causes
a small brush to moisten the backing
and distribute it I've the shoe, and
then follows this movement up with a
supplementary brush, which runs over
that shoe and brings out a fine polish
almost before you realize that the Oper-
alton is begun. The labOr-Saving shoe.
backing machine will keep shoeblacks
from earning nickels and will receive
O black eye from the profession.

Hunting the Giraffe.

The bush is horribly dense and
thorny, and the thOrns are of such a
nature that the strongest cord breeches
can scarcely withstand their assaults.
The old giraffe bulls, with hides nearly
an inch thick, al for no thorn in the
forest, and plunge through the ormed
thickets as though they were black
currantbushes. There is only II thing
to be done-tO forget the sickle thorns
and follow them. The spurs go in, the
gallant pony springs forward, and the
chase begins. 1t is truly h%eadlong.
Crash go the tall giants, heir long
necks rising and falling rhythnically,
their heads sometimes bending ow
to escape a bough which sll but scrapes
the withers.
1t is wonderful how such monstrous
game can evade branches and tack
this way and that among h Interrupt
tons and obstacles of the forest. 1t is
q tough gallOp indeed, but in ten min
utes the hunter has driven his pony
right up to the tail of the nearest bull,
and. from the saddle, has fired his shot.
He falls behind a little. then closes up
and fires again. Both bullets, planted
close to the roop of the tail, have plow-
ed deep into the short body OF the 81
raffe and done their work. The painted
giant ~falters, sways, and then III an
instant falls crashing to earth, carry
ing with him in his ruin a stout sap
ling.
Dark chestnut of Goa almost black
with age upon the back, this old bull,
measuring nineteen feet from the hoof
TO the tip of the false horns, forms a
noble prize indeed. AS he lies there
in the long yellow grass, he looks, sure.

The Dead Sea Of to-day is a little
body of sluggish, dark, greasy water,
gathered ut the bottom of the deepest
depression on the earth's s%urface-a
hollow 1900 feet below the level of the
Mediterranean. A recent scientific ex-
petition has proven, however, that at
one time its surface was on Il level
with that of the Mediterranean and
it's area more than twenty times what
it is at present. In what the biologists
call the glacial period the Jordan
was an arm of the Dead Sea and was
more than 1000 feet in depth.

GERM THEORY OF DISEASE.

The Position 1t Occupies and Atten-
tiOn 1t Is Receiving from Scientific
Men.
The germ theory of the origin of
disease is Il subject which is at pres
ent attracting the attention of scien-
tific men in all parts of the world.
The chief importance of the germ the
DRY. however. is not that it shows the
origin of disease but that it points out
the best means to be employed to eff
feet a cure. The germs of disease,
from whatever source they come, are
lodged and developed in the blood. The
blood, of course, by circulating to every
part of the body, is sure to scatter dis
ease throughout the system whenever
it is impure. the weakest and most SuS-
ceptible parts being the first to suffer.
1t is because Of scrofulous taiats n the
blood, for instance, that the skin be-
comes covered with eruptions. 1t is
Tactic acid in the blood which causes
rheumatism, and it is because the
blood does not supply proper nourish-
ment to the nerves that people suffer
with The cure for all
these diseases, and of many others,
can only be effected by purifying the
blood, and absolutely destroying all
germs of disease. No intelligent per-
son can doubt that Hoods Sarsaparilla
has actually and permanently cured
many thousands of cases of scrofula,
rheumatism, nervousness. dyspepsia
and other troubles, and, as its proprie-
tors claim, it is all because this medi-
cine Durifies the blood. AS Il matter
of fact. Hoods Sarsaparilla is the only
reliable blood purifier that is before
the public to-day, and persons afflicted
with impure blood or any of the great
variety of ailments which it causes,
will be most certain to find relief and
cure in Hoods Sarsaparilla because it
possesses this peculiar power to puri-
fly. enrich and ~vitaliZe the blood, and
destroy the germs Of disease.
