missionaries and Native Morals.

The failure of the English Protestant
missionaries in west Africa to recog.
nize the difference between the minds
of the Africans and their own, and THEN
tendency to regard the African minds
as SO many jugs, which have only to be
emptied of the stuff which is In them
and refilled with the particular form Of
doctrine they, the missionaries, are en-
gagged In teaching. is certainly one
among several causes Of the mission
failures, and it works In very various
ways-by eliminating those parts Of
the fetch that were a wholesome re-
straint and putting in their place the
doctrine Of the forgiveness Of sin By
means Of repentance, etc. This part Of
the Christian doctrine the negroes are
very devoted to.

DON'T STOP TOBACCO.
How to Cure Yourself While

The tobacco habit grows on man un-
til his nervous SYSTEM is seriously affect

his private practice since 1872, without a
failure. 1t is purely vegetable and guar

SHEEP FOR DRY LAND
A Small Band Never Known to Drink
Water.
THIS Is SAID TO BE TRUE
All These Wool Producers Want Is
Succuient Grass and They
Promise to Thrive-How
u All Originated

Great Falls, March 4.-Charley Tres
colt, editor and publisher of that
promising family journal, the Dupuyer
Acantha, has always enjoyed the repu-
tation of being conservative and relia-
BILE in his newspaper work, and a re-
cent acquisition TO his interesting fam
i,y in the way of a son and heir, has
led to the belief that. with his new
responsibilities. would come a more
earnest desire to maintain a cloudless
record for truth and veracity. How
ever, an article in the last issue of the
Acantlha has created grave doubts in
the minds of his friends as to whether
he is justly entitled to recognition as
a devout church member and an un-
swerving advocate of the truth. The
article referred to has created a pro-
found sensation among sheepmen In
Northern Montana, and Is as follows:
20. G. Cooper. one of the pioneers In
the sheep business. and one of the
largest owners in the state, has the
nucleus of what will probably be in a
few years the most valuable strain In
the country for breeding purposes. The
strain possesses qualities that Will
strongly recommend them to breeders
in a country like this, where an
abundance of succulent grasses can be
had at a distance from the water sup
ply. This peculiar acquisition to our
fiocks originated as follows:
'Some eight years ago, about six
weeks after the close of the season of
formulation, Mr.. Cooper moved a band
of ewes from his Bone Yard ranch TO
another location. The night before the
removal a Shropshire eye was impris-
oned in a building, the door of which
was closed during the night by vio-
lent wind. The herder started the band
at break of day, neglecting to examine
the stable before his departure.
In one end of the stable was stored
a quantity of hay, but there was not a
drop of water with which the eye could
quench her thirst. Three weeks later
the eve was relieved from her prison
and placed in the band. In due time
she gave birth to twins. a male and a
female, both peculiarly marked about
Z the head, as was the mother with
+ small, round spots.
In the fall, when the lambs were
separated from their mothers for wean-
ing the herder noticed that these two
! peculiarly marked lambs never drank
water. but remained several rods away
from the creek while their companions
| were drinking.
Mr.. Cooper's attention was called
to these two lambs and, with commend
able forethought, immeditely gave di-
rections that they be given extra care
and, as a result of eight years effort,
= he has now II head of sheep, not one
I of which is known to have swallowed
a drop of water.
"Of the wonderful characteristics
communicated TO the young in en-
bryo. this is one of the most wonder
full and no doubt but that IL will turn
out to be one of the most valuable. Nc
man can estimate the wealth these
non-aqueous sheep will afford wher
they have multiplied enough 10 stock

b. c. advising men without means to
keep away from British Columbia. He
says that miners are only paid 50 per
day, and in order to get work on those
terms must have a pedigree as long
as both arms" Necessary expenses
bring the pay down to less than 81 per
day. He adds that teamsters work
from 4 o'clock in the morning until 10
at night, and are only paid $35 per
month. In Mr.. Cramer's estimation a
sheepherder in Northern Montana, at
almost any salary. has a pleasant and
profitable position compared to the
work offered to men without means in
that country. However, he thinks that
Rossland will be the richest gold camp
in North America in the next two
years, and says: There are new dis
coveries being made every day. and If
a man has a few hundred dollars to in
vest he cannot find a better place to in
