Feud settled by Marriage.

Afeud lasting over ten years, in which
blood was twice spilled. once on a
church step, has ended by the marriage
OF William Hyiand and Jessie Potter at
Maidstone, Ont. A decade ago William
began to court Jessie, and her parents
seriously objected, even TO the point of
kicking Hyland from the house, setting
the dog at him. blazing away at him
with shotgun, and later attacking him
on the church steps. The church, even,
was divided on the affair; families were
set against each other, and two or three
court cases grew out it. Hyland had
perseverance and Jessie was constant.
and, despite the combinations of clubs,
shotguns and fierce dogs, they succeed
ed in ending their ten years. courtship.
When Jessie's father and brother heard
OF the ending they decided that Nv
land had fairly won his bride, and sent
word to him to come over TO the house,
that all was forgiven. Maidstone peo-
PIE are singing psalms of re joicing over
the happy elimination of the long fight.

A retired Anglo Indian officer has
published his notions ON the subject of
''tips." ThaclSeray's Col. Newcome, II
will be remembered, made sort Of
royal progress through England on his
return from long sojougn in the east,
rewarding postboys with gold and maxi
ing walters happy with handfuls of
silver, says the London Daily News.
This reminds the AEgio Indian officer
that there are ne tippcrs so hardened
and profuse as hnglo-fndian tippers. Il
Is so novel for them to be waited on by
white frees that they feel inclined to
reward the most triiling service. They
arc, moreover, pleased to be at home
again, and touched with the civility
theg -.,oct with in their journeyings to
and fro their hands are evcrlastingly in
then pockets.
The retired Indian officer does not
object to tips in the abstract, but he
enters protest against the giving of
gold to any domestic in house where
one has been staying. 1t spoils the
market and is unfair to those with
slender purses. Five shillings, he con-
sidcrs, is sufficient reward for little
extra trouble. This is very well, but

Gcntleness and Dociiity OF the Well
Trained Animals.

Trained Animais.
In the easternmost corner of Prussia,
near the village of Trakehnen, is q
famous horse-breeding establishment.
which was started by the father Of
Frederick the Great. This great stud
farm Is still carried on with character
istic energy, and not only provides the
German army with the hundred thou
sand horses which it requires in time Of
peace, but does much toward keeping
up high general standard among the
horses of the country, Nearly every
farm in east Prussia is devoted to this
one occupation, and the German army
gets many more horses from this little
corner than from anywhere else in the
kingdom. The author Of "The Border
land of Gear and Kaiser, gives an adj
mirable picture OF the gentleness and
docility of the Trakehnen thorough
breds.
We pulled up in q field where were q
hundred three-year-old stations rum
ning free, and watched by two herders,
each bearing long whip, which he
cracked now and then as a warning that
some one of the herd was straying.
The herd appeared very quiet, and
paid little attention to our carriage as
it drove up close to them on the grass.
The major said that they were as gentle
as sheep and not half as shy, and at his
invitation / jumped from my seat and
walked up to them, into the very midst
of them, strolling in and out amongst
them, patting them on the nose or
flank, wherever / happened to be near
est to them.
To secure this result prize is offered
to those herders whose horses show the
most confiding disposition at the APP
proach of man.
One evening we went to see the
horses called home from the pasture.
They came in troops of hundreds, and
gathered in large Enclosures facing the
stables. The main body divided itself
| according to color, the blacks going to
one corner, the browns to another. the
| bays to third; of whites or grays
| saw no specimens.
| Here and there would be one that had
mistaken his corner, or was seeking for
| hidden company out of mischief The
keeper had no difficulty in bringing him
to his right senses, however, by simply
calling his name and waving his hand
In the direction of the corner to which
he belonged. The colt thus addressed
invariably leaped out from the corner
| TO which he was an intruder, and gal
Hoped straight to the corner whose color
matched his. This we saw done many
| times over, and itnever failed. -Youth's

How the Nose works.

In ordinary respiration the nose
recognizes only pronounced odors,
since the filaments of the olfactory
nerve are distributed only in the upper
third of the lining membrane of its
fossae, and IN ordinary breathing the
air passes directly through the upper
half of these cavities. Hence modi-
fed respiratory effort-a quick, forced
respiration or ''sniff''-is usually neces-
sary in order to bring air carrying odor-
ferrous particles to the olfactory nerve
endings. Nevertheless, whenever air
mixed with odorous gases and noxious
particles is inhaled through the nose dur
ing few successive ordinary respira-
tions, the olfactory sense is awakened
TO knowledge of their presence
through the law of diffusion of gases, in
virtue of which the odorous particles
are conveyed to the superior fossae Of
the nose and hence TO the terminal FL
aments of the olfactory nerve. Thus
TO a certain extent the sense of smell
is preservative of health.--Dietetic and
Hygienic Gazette.

SECRECY AND DECEIT.

The Administration of Russia Is False to
the Core.
1t is not only with regard to literature
that excessive strietness of the censor
ship has disastrous effect. In Russia

OF falsity. Statistics. published by SUI

knows what is going on in the country.
whether the cholera is raging or the
peasants are famine-stricken; conse-
qusntiy the people suffer indirectly for
want of relief during famine. while the
cholera may be spread broadcast over
the land. For instance, in the present
year the writer visited Nijni-Novgorod
at the time OF the great fair there and
found that the cholera was raging, and
had been for some time. Notwith-
standing this. the government pub
iished no statistics of cholera in Mini
butgave that town clean bill of health,
at the risk of spreading the disease ali
over European Russia and Asia, and
with the benevolent object in view OF
not interrupting the business of the
market. Thus all this secrecy causes
material harm. Distress and famine
existing in outlying districts are kept
secret, and the wretched peasants per
ish for want of that assistance which
they would receive from charitable PEG
pie IL their requirements were made
known. Further, no comments are al
lowed to be printed On the actions nj
civil or military officers, police or any
government officials, and there is con
sequently little TO prevent them abus
ing their power-a privilege of which
they frequently avail themselves. Sucl
being the case, and the Russians being
an Asiatic nation in many of their char
acteristics. it is not surprising that the
administration of the country is cor
rupt to the core.-Westminster Review
