THE HISTORY OF AUCTIONS.

An interesting disluisition on the
history and practice of auction sales
was given last night by Mr.. James F.
Field to the members of the Auction
GERS Institute, at their room in Chan
Gerry lane. He pointed out that the pro-
fession was one of the oldest in the
world, for description ofwife auctions
was given by Herodotus. The system
appeared to have been the very reverse
of the way in which moderns dispose
of valuable chattles. The tairest were
first put up and Knocked down to the
highest bidder: then the next in order
of cOmcliness, and so on to the damsels
who were equi-distant between beauty
and plainness, while those destitute of
attractions were given away gratis.
The word ..auction'' was accimatiZed
in England about the beginning of the
eighteenth century. and since that time
many forms of conducting sales had
been used; sometimes by sandglass,
sometimes by burning an inch of cam
die, the highest bidder before the flames
expired being the purchaser, and now
by the hammer. The methods of bid
ding have been and are still equally
singular. One gentleman, well known
to many an auction hall, seldom enters
completely a saleroom, hut, leaning
round the door jamb, signifies his ne
sire to acquire Il bargain by a wink
which is certainly unmistakeable. 9th
erS open their mouths silently and give
signs of apoleXy most alarming to be
hold, others smile ,frown or tremble, and, u,
| indeed, the methods of some are per-
picking: others simply cry YES" \
nod is, however, the common method.
The most singular auctioneer of whom
Mr. Field ever heard was silent fe
male, who handed Il glass of brandy to
every bidder, and he who got the last
glass was the buyer. Probably this
bears somewhat on the custom for so
many years in vogue of indulgin@ pur-
chasers and hangers-on ut auctions with
potations He was glad to notice that
this system was dying out.-Lonion

YOUR PHYSICAL CONDITION

Needs attention ut this time. If You
are tired, weak and nervous, it is clear
that your blood is impure, and without
doubt there has been too much over
work or strain on brain and body. The
course of treatment for such Il condi-
ton is plain and simple. The blood
must first be purified so that the ner-
vous system, and in fact all the organs
will be fed upon pure blood. 1ntelli-
gent people without number have tes-
titled that the best blood purifier, nerve
tonic and strength imparting medicine
is Hoods Sarsaparilla. Nervousness,
loss of sleep and general debility all
vanish when Hoods Sarsaparilla is
persistently taken; in a word, health
and happiness follow after taking
Hoods Sarsaparlla.

THE MUSK-OX.

But there is one large and bovine
animal on our continent which is not
destined t. be snuffed out of eXis,
tence like the unfortunate bison, and
that is the musk-ox. He is under the
protection of the Frost King, whose
game pastures are seldom penetrated
by white poachers. On the map of
Artic America you can put your finger
down almost anywhere, so that it be
on land north of the Great Slave Lake
and cast of the Mackenzie river, and
say, "Therc lives the musk-oX," with
out fear of successful contradic-
ton.
just beyond the limit of trees and
bushes, even the scantiest, on the silent
desolate,, and awful Barren Grounds
northeast of Great Slave Lake, at Ga
degrees north latitude, the musk-oX
draws the line marking his fatherst
south.
A man who can endure cold like an
Eskimo, travel like a caribou, live for
weeks on frozen caribou meat, starve as
chcerfully as Yellow-knife Indian,
and endure the companionship ofvermin
covered natives, can reach the southern
border-land of the musk-oX, and possi-
bly get back alive with two or three
skins. Mr.. Warburton Pike, English
man, can and did do all those things.
'The barren Grounds of Northern
Cananda" is most interesting and
valuable contribution to our knowledge
of that very desolate country.
The musk-ox is perhaps the rarest,
and to white men the most difficult to
secure. of all our land quadrupeds.
Robes are by no means uncommon,
and often sell for rs little as $l5 each;
but of mounted skins there are in our
country exactly seven. Three of these
constitute group in the National
Museum; two are at the American
Museum of Natural History in New
York: and the museums of Philadel
phia and Cambridge have one each.
Although during their long sojourns
in high ATTITUDES General Greely and
the members of his expedition party
killed many musk-oNen, you will nc
tice that they were unable to bring
back even rs much as a single horn.
The appearance of the musk-oN is
so odd and striking that when once
seen it is seldom forgotten. You see,
an oblOug mass of tremendously long
brown hair, four and half feet high
by six and half long, supported upon
wide hoofs and very short, thick legs,
almost hidden by the body hair There
is also blunt and hairy muzzle, a pair
of broad ,hattening horns thatpart like
woman's hair and drop far downward
before they curve upward-and that
is all. The mass of hair is so thick
that as the robe lies on the floor it is
about as easy to walk over as feather
bed. Over the loins you will find, IL
YOU look closely, a broad ''saddlemark'
of dirty white hair, shorter than the
| rest of the coat.
Next to the body is a matted mass
of very fine and soft hair, like clean
wool, so dense that to snow and fog it
is quite impenetrable. Over this lies
a thick coat of very long, straight hair
often twelve inches in length and
sometimes twenty, like the grass rain
coat of japanese soldier. Sometimes
it actually touches the snow as the
animal walks.-W. 7. Hornaday III
