Interesting Experience OF an Indian
npOlis Gentleman.

No trouble is more common or more mis-
understood than nervous dyspepsia Peo-
pie having it think that their nerves are
TO blame and are surprised that they are
not cured by nerve medicine and spring
remedies; the real seat of the mischief is
lost sight Of; the stomach is the organ to
be looked after.
Nervous dySpepucs often do not have any
pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps
any of the usual symptoms OF stomach
weakness. Nervous dyspepsia shows itself
not in the stomach so much as in nearly
every other organ; in some cases the heart
palpitates and is irregular; In others the
kidneys are affected; in others the bowels
are constlpated, with headache still 9TH
ers are troubled with loss OF flesh and APP
petite, with accumulation of gas, sour
risings and heartburn.

ing. He called for Private Green-he shouted and shrieked his name a hun dred times-but there was no answer. When he had grown so hoarse that his voice could no longer be heard he be- gan running, and he grew yet more fearful.
 He was not afraid of the soldier-not afraid of the serpents and lizards-he did not fear the darkness. He was afraid of himself. Until midnight he ran and walked by turns, always hop Ing that every darker shadow was the form of the man he had driven to de- sertiOn, but ever disappointed. At length he fell down from exhaustion, and daylight found him groveling in the sand and human figure seated be- side him. When the sun came up Pri- Vate Green reached out his hand and quietly said:

THE RETURN OF CAPTAIN BOWERS.

The officer looked up and smiled va cantly and talked to himself in whis- pers. Next day at noon he entered the post alone, but the sentinel at the gate caught sight of another figure down in the bushes and knew that the officer and deserter had met
 Here is Capt. Bowersw was shouted by a score of privates and officers as the man stood at the gate and stared stupidly around him.
 They pressed forward to shake the officer by the hand and question him about his adventure, but he drew away and cast his eyes down and muttered and smiled. He no longer had a mind, and Private James Green was reveng- ed. Months afterward the Captain got about again, but he was so "queer'' that his resignation was handed in and accepted, and he drifted no one knew whither.-C. B. Lewis, in the St. Louis Republic.

lowed in the others footsteps, neither speaking a word. Then they crossed a sand ridge which was higher than the average and descended to a natural sink of about half an acre in extent. In the center of this sink was puddle of water-such water as a thirsty horse would hardly have touched with his nose a second time. In the breast of the sand ridge was shallow cave-the home of the deserter.
 ''Is this-this where you have been hiding" asked the officer as he looked about him.
 For the last ten days-yes," an swered Private Green. Make yourself at home. You will have to wait here until the Indians clear out"
 That was the water the soldier had used to quench his thirst-the shallow cave his shelter from the sun and the night. There was no fire, no food. He must have had food to live, but he must have been compelled to cat it raw, No wonder he looked pinched and hag- gard and wol6sh He flung himself down on the sands and turned away from the officer. Had the deserter been armed the officer would have feared an attack. While he did not fear that, the mans singular demeanor bred appre- hension.
 He had been driven to desert-to be- come a Wanderer on the face of the desert-to hunger and thirst and feel that his life was in peril every hour. Capt. Bowers thoughts were anything but pleasant as he sat in the shelter and looked cut upon the recruit who had the outspoken sympathy of four fifths of the garrison. An hour passed away. Then the officer said:
 "Green, I've been thinking we were too hard on you, and I am free to say I am sorry for it. If you'll go back to the fort with me things shall be diff ferent."
 The man stretched on the sands made no reply. He knew enough of military discipline to know that court-martiai awaited him for striking his superior officer and deserting. They must find him guilty and pass sentence, no mat. ctr how we'll disposed. He had stood all he could, and on the night of his de- sertion he had sworn a solemn oath to have revenge upon his captain before he died. Chance had thrown the off, cer into his hands. As he lay there he was planning murder. He meant to get up by and by and spring upon the Captain, no matter about the pistol. Reduced in strength as he was for the want of proper food. the thought of his wrongs nerved him up md he felt more than match for the man at his

Glad stone all through, but I quite admit that Disraeli stood up we'll to his great opponent and that it was not always easy to award the prize of victory. The two mems voices were curiously un- like. Disraeli had deep, low, power ful voice, heard everywhere throughout the house, but having little variety or music in it. Gladstone's voice was tuned to higher note, was penetrat- ing, resonant, liquid and full of an ex- quisite modulation and music which gave new shades of meaning to every emphasized word. The ways of the men were in almost every respect curl ously unlike. Gladstone was always eager for conversation. He loved to talk to anybody about anything. Disraeli, even among his most intimate friends, was given to frequent fits of absolute and apparently gloomy silence.

Glad stone changed his political opinions many times during his long parliament ary career, but he changed his opin- ions only in deference to the force of a growing conviction and to the recog- hilton of facts and conditions which he could no longer conscientiously dis pute. Nobody probably ever knew what MT. Disraeli's real opinions were upon any political question or whether he had any real opinions at all. Gladstone began as Tory and gradually became changed into a Radical. Disraeli began as an extreme Radical under the pat ronage of Daniel O'Connell and changed into Tory. But everybody knew that Gladstone was at first sincere Tory and at last a sincere Radical. Nobody knew, or, indeed, cared, whether Dis raeli ever was either a sincere Radical or a sincere Tory.

What He Couldn't Do.

A student in one of the Buffalo med ical colleges is responsible for the state ment that at certain place of public entertainment one of the boys was brag- ging of his manifold accomplishments until one of the company lost patience and said in Q gruff tone: "'Now, we've heard enough about what you can do. Come, tell us what there is you can't do, and I'll undertake to do it myself. "

....PRIVATE GREEN.


q state of panic. closely followed by thf exultant victors. After mad rusb ot seven or eight miles the Captain's horse fell exhausted and soon died. The | officer knew that his command had been routed, and that he was cut off from It. That the Indians did not mr. sue him was probably due to their do sire to annihilate the company by fol lowing swiftly on their heels. Ha had ridden beyond their ken, and the strong wind had already covered his trail in the sand, but the fort was twelve miles distant, and he was cu foot and ... ~ from 1t. He had lost his saDre. but sill retained his revolver and was seated oR the dead body Of his horse and plan r'ng what move he should make, when trooper suddenly appeared beside him.
 ''YOu-is 1t you, Green? exclaimed Capt. Bowers, as he sprang to his feet.
 The other stood with folded arms and made no reply. It was Private Green. the deserter of month ago. His uniform was torn and stained, and the man had haggard, wolfish look. He had not been hiding among the hills where the soldiers had looked for him. but out among the sand ridges, where his only living companions were ser pentS and lizards. He had been driven there by the persecution of the officer who stood before him. The officer knew it as we'll as he, and he drew his pistol to defend himself from attack. It was two or three minutes before another word passed. Then the Captain said:
 Green, this is bad business. We ran into an ambush, and the company must have been badly cut up. It has been driven back to the fort, and am alone as you see. am going to try and make my way in."
 "You cannot do it," was the reply. within an hour the Indians will be looking for you. They would be upon you before you were clear of the des- ert."
 "But what shall do?"
 "COme with me-"
 Private Green strode away to the west and the Captain followed him. It seemed strange that he should do so, but the sudden surprise of the ambush, the mad run of his horse and his find ing of the deserter In such an unex- pected place all combined to cow his spirit and bring feeling of helpless ness.

A Baf In Q Tomb.

A queer story is told of naturalist who died in 1860 and was buried at Blankney, in Lincolnshire. Among his pets was large gray bat.
 This bat was permitted to enter the tomb and was sealed up alive with the corpse of his dead master. In 1866 the vault was opened, and to the surprise of all the bat was alive and fat.
 On four different occasions since the relatives of the dead man have looked after the welfare of his pet, and each time it has been reported that the bat was still in the land of the living, al though occupying quarters with the dead. It was last seen in 1692.-Pear- sons Weekly.

New Uses for Glass.

Attention was recently called to the proposed use of glass brick in building. It is now said that the Government 2f Switzerland has approved the use of glass for making weights to be enl- ployed with balance-scales. A peculiar ly tough kind of glass Is to be selected for this purpose. From England comes the suggestion that glass would be a better and more lasting material than stone for making monuments which are exposed to the wearing action of the weather.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infamed you have a runbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it Is entirely closed deafness is the re- suit. and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its nor nal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

 They are filling several orders for large irrigating plants and as this line of theII business increases each season, it is safe to say the farmers throughout the State are ap- preciating the advantages of irrigation with water pumped by this cheap power.

ENGINE 100 EXPLODED.

who had stepped from the engine just
a moment before the explosion took
place.
The engine had been in the round
house for three days having her tlues
cleaned. The operation had been coma
pleted and the work of firing up was
under way. 1t is supposed there was a
flaw in the iron and it gave away under

There was only ninety pounds of
