The Lonely Karoo Shepherds.

Shepherds in the interior of South
Africa frequently experience great
difficulty in securing from the home
station their regular weekly supplies
of rations, and are often compelled to
exist on short allowance, owing chief
ly to their over-indulgence when in
the midst of plenty.
On certain sheep-station in the in
terror, a willy old ahepherd-known as
Sandy-Shought he would, at all
events, guard himself against short
supply Of damper Ia large cake, baked
in hot embers) by marking off on its
surface the size of the slice to be eaten
each day from Sunday, which was the
time devoted to baking operations.
On one occasion a johannesburg
prospector accidentally met Sandy
tending his Aocks on the lonely karoc,
and was thereaway invited to dine with
the shepherd.
The goldseeker gladly accepted the
invitation, and everything passed of
satisfactorily until the marked dam.
per was handed to the guest. who, hav.
ing keen appetite, helped himself to
rather large supply. In fact, it
quite amazed poor Sandy, who ex-
claimed:
"Well, we'll, mani had no idea
YOU would eat so much when I asked
you inl Why, you have cut my dam

Tuesday in the week, with not an

Senatorial Extravaganza.

There are ninety senator's. They
have 353 employees to wait upon them
at cost of about 1882, 600 year. That
is to say each senator, besides his sal
ary of So, 900 a year, must have attend
ance costing $5, ,355 year.
There are 121 clerks to committees,
etc., in body numbering only ninety
persons. There are fifty-two laborers,
though nobody can imagine what labor
they perform. There are fifteen po-
licemen, though the senate end of the
capitol is fully guarded by the capitol
police.
Senator Chandler has rendered q
public service by calling attention to
this monstrous extravaganza. 1t is an
abuse of large proportions, and it is
made worse by the fact that most OF
the money is paid to persons near to
the senators themselves for purely
nominal services. In other words, the
senators are quartering their families
and dependents upon the country al
an annual expense of nearly half q
million dollars to the taxpayers. The
exposure ought to compel reform.-

After.EHects Of Grippe.

No one has, up to date, been able
satisfactorily to diagnose the after
effects of this remarkable epidemic.
An eminent authority, in comment
ing on it's poculierities, says that fresh
air is the best tonic and restorer.
Among the most serious symptoms OF
apparent convalescence is the extreme
depression to which the patient is
liable. In this state a suicidal tend
ency is often developed, and hysteria
is not uncommon. This is specially
noted in cases where there has been a
great deal of pain in the head. Pleas
ant and absorbing occupation is one
of the best helps to recovery. Nour-
ishing food, not too concentrated, a
reasonable amount of exercise, stop
ping far short of the point of weari-
ness, are also advantageous. Above
all, indulgence in depression should
be avoided, as this may develop into
a chronic melanchoiia, and end in
mental disease of serious character.
As q summary of treatment, take
plenty of fresh air, simple tonics,
nourishing food and laugh and enjoy
everything that comes in the way.

INTEREsrINGs FACTS.

The five lake cities, Chicago, De-
troit, Milwaukee, Cleveland and Buffalo,
have death rate of but Is. Sc per thous-
and, as compared with a rate of 1888
per thousand in the remaining large
cities of the United States.
1t is estimated that since the govern
ment began putting paper money into
the hands of the people it has made
profit of no less than $50, 1000, 0Oe as a
result of bills being mutilated, wasted,
buried, lost or burned.
Army surgeons say that the express
sion of the faces of soldiers killed in
battle reveals the causes of death.
Those who have perished from sword
wounds have look of repose, while
there is an expression OF pain on the
countenances of those slain by bullets.
The little Italian republic of San
Marino, with its thirty-three square
miles of territory and its population
OF ak thousand, lies up in the eastern
spurs of the Apennine mountains. 1t
is governed by grand council of six
ty, who are elected for life, and two
presidents; one of whom is appointed
by the council, the other elected by
the people. The little republic has an
army of $50 men, who are employed
only as policemen. San Marino is the
only country in the world that tprohib-
its the introduction of the printing
press. The city of San Marino, with
o population of 1,7O0, is one of the
queerest old towns in the world. 1t
has undergone no change in five ,,un-
dred years. This republic began in
1851.
It is remarkable what slight varia-
tion there is IN the temperature of the
healthy human body. The normal
temperature is 96.6. The great pecu-
liarity about the temperature in men
is its evenness under oil conditions.
Heat or cold causes but slight varia-
tion, and in man less than in any other
animal. In extremes that would be
fatal to many animals man can endure
and enjoy good health. We read OF
Arctic voyagers enduring a tempera-
ture ranging from 80 degrees to 80 de.
grees, and even 120 degrees below
zero, while, on the other hand, in the
tropics, during the greater part of the
year, the temperature ranges from LOG
degrees to ITO degrees above, and yet
men enjoy good health in such vary
ing temperature, and the heat of the
blood varies very little.

The Patient Was Finally Restored, After
Eighteen Years.
From the Euening News, Newark, MI
About eighteen years ago, when Mrs. Annie
Dale, Of SO Bruce street, was bright, merry
school girl, she was taken i'll with scarlet fever.
She recovered, but she was very different girl
from physical standpoint. She was cured o;
the scarlet fever, but it left her with an afrec-
tion of the back. As che grew older the pain
seemed to increase. Her sufferings were inten-
sifed by her household duties, bu. she never
complain d, and with one hand pressed tightly
to her back she dill her work about her coZJ
home.
Iva, fourteen years old when I was at
tackled with scarlet fever, and have now suffered
with my buck for eighteen years.
'Night and day suffered. It really seemed
as if must succumb to the pain, and then to
make matters worse, my head ached so badly
that could scarcely see, at times. Finally I
went to st. Nichaers Hospital, at the corner of
High street and Central avenue, and there the
surgeons performed difficult operation on my
back, but it did no good; it was like everything
else, WAS told at the hospital to return for
another operation. but the first had left me 30

/ SUNSET FANCY.

Tonight, as ] sat at my window,
While the west was ail agleam
With thst strange and wonderful splendor
That IS fleeting as dream,
Thought that the hands OF angels
Had flung heavens gateways wide,
And caught some glimpse Of the glory
From the hills on the other side.
Isit not a comforting fancy,
This sunset thought Of mine,
That al,.sys the gates of heaven
Swing open at days decline
That those whose work is all ended
From our earthly woes and ills,
May pass to the peace and gladness
That crown the beautiful hills?
Perhaps while sat there dreaming
oithe gateway in the west
Some weary ones went homeward
To a long and endless rest
Went In through the sunset gateway
To the city paved with gold,
TO dwell in the hills Of heaven,
And bs no longer old!

Comfort for Children.

Much of the outcry against candy is
the result of wrong methods of use.
It can often safely be taken at meal
time with goodresults. Scientists say
that the food value of sugar is very
great. A pound of sugar contains
much more energy and power to sup.
port animal life than pound of meat.
If candy is taken under such condi.
t,ons that it will not derange the di-
gesti7e apparatus 1t is perfectly wise
and rational to be candy eater.--
