There is another side to the picture.
The Eastern hawker would not be con-
tent with the mere gamble for a lucky
number without exercising his natural
ingenuity. While he is talking to a
would-be "futter" he drops Lis hand
into the bag and begins shaking up the
numbers. These, 1t should be explain
ed, are made up in patches of tens aid
twenties, which are composed of slight
ly different qualities of paper. In the
bag is false bottom. So delicate is
Nassau or Adults touch that he can
distinguish one batch from the other
with his hand. Instantly you select
your numbers he switches them on
into the reserved compartment. You
may easily be tricked half a dozen
times in this way without knowing it.
The face of the hawker on such occa-
sions is a study.
Never for moment does he relax
his attention to you. His smile is sun
ny as the Eastern morn; his respectful
graciousness never leaves him.-Pear-

BOGUS WEDDING GIFTS.

A West End jeweler, says London
Lady, divulges some strange secrets
concerning wedding presents. He SAYS
that NUMBERS of people hire expensive
gifts, so that the display they make
on the wedding day is enough to cause
rival flancees to grow green with envy.
In the same way, bogus checks and
hired bank notes are displayed-that
is to say, an obliging relative writes
out check for two or three thousands
pounds, and there is an end of it. After
the wedding is over the check is re-
turned, to be torn in pieces. This is
a transaction which can be only re-
commended between particularly hon
est relatives. The man who lends a
bank note for f500-which looks very
well in list of gifts, by the way
must be of very confiding disposition.
The silversmith from whom this infor-
nation comes says that a regular agree
ment is made between customers and
trades people respecting wedding pres
ents, whereby duplicates can be sold
back to the firb. One business house
turns over quite respectable sum
every year as the result of obling trans
actions of this kind. OF course, sup
posing salad bowl to have cost f5,
when it is returned it will not bring
anything like that sum; but, as it is
just as good as ever it was, the silver
smith is not the loser.

MILK AS A NUTRITIvE.

A doctor expresses the belief that
a person could live for any length of
time and take heavy exercise all the
while on no other food that sweet milk.
His conviction is the result of personal
experiment.
He wanted TO establish the fact that
persons convalescing from sickness
may grow stronger with no other nu-
triment than sweet milk, and that they
are not obliged to take something SOL
i'd to eat, as so many people imagine.
He holds that many convalescent has
gone into his grave as result of over
taxing his weak stomach by putting
solid" food into it, and he maintains
that the old belief as to bread being
the first essential of human life is
shown by his experiments to be erro-
neous
His test was to live 80 days with only
sweet milk as nourishment In the
whole time he lost five and a half
pounds in weight. but no strength. He
even attributes the loss of weight 10

eessive exercise on the bicycle, and the
daily manipulation of 16-pound dumb

THE ORIENTAL PEDDLER.

The hawker of the East is pictures
que in costume, and of many nation
alities. His sunny smile and white
cleaning teeth are of the very essence
of the blue sky overheard He does
not stand still in the street and appeal
to passers-by 10 buy his wares. He
fits from safe TO cafe, and interviews
loungers smoking their narghilez in the
open air. He adopts the gambling sys-
tenn, as being a more direct appeal to
human passions. In his hand he car
ries lucky-bag. When he enters a
cafe, he invites you to dip your hand
in the bag and try your luck for a pair
of live turkeys, a beautiful Egyptian
shawl shimmering with gold or silver
embroidery, or some other of the many
ornaments peculiar to the East. 1t is
difficult TO resist his persuasive elo-
.quence.
The method of procedure is this. In
his lucky-bag the hawker carries 200
numbers. The figures are neatly in
scribed on small slips of stiff paper.
These are rolled and curled up in the
luck-bag, which resembles a pillow
NdSS lAOIc lndA any tuluS tlSe. wien
the peddler enters the cafe his quick
eye soon detects a likely customer. To
start by doing trade will greatly en-
nance his chances with others. Terms
are arranged, say, three tries for half
a franc. Then you guess, perhaps three
times, at the luck number-say be-
tween 100 and 120-as arranged.
On drawing the first number Won nav
down your half franc OF course, the
odds are very much against you. The
hawkers in Cairo and Alexandria make
a very fair harvest when these cities
are full. As much as Is to IS francs for
turkey which cost francs is pretty
good profit. Somebody, of course, wins
it in the long run.
The articles disposed Of in this way
comprise boxes Of splendid peaches and
other fruits, soap, flowers in great va

cases will prove fatal, but such fatal
cases are almost wholly confined TO:
l. Animals which are kept at work
during the first stages of the disease,
when no other symptom is present, but
a high fever, accompanied with more
or less loss of appetite. 1t is in this
stage when the quickest and most sue
cessful results can be obtained, but it
often happens that the amount OF fever
can only be estimated by the use of
clinical thermometer. 4 horses nat
ural temperature is from 100 degrees
Fahrenheit TO 105 Fahrenheit. When
an outbreak occurs among a lot of
working horses the temperature of all
the animals should be taken once
day, and upon showing a higher tenn
perature than 100 degrees, the animal
should at once be taken of work, put
on loose diet and treated incidentally
as follows: Any case in this stage Of
the disease is comparatively easy TO
handle.
2. When the animals are too crowd
ed and the general sanitary conditions
of the stables are bad or defective;
where lowering treatment, such as pur-
gatives, have been used and where the
animal is especially susceptible to
malignant form of disease, which is
often the case among mules, treatment
consists in absolute rest and freedom
from work of any description as long
as the fever lasts. The food should
consist of sloppy bran mashes, with
very small quantity of oats. No corn
or other grain, but fair amount of
good hay may be given, and table
spoonful TO each animal may be given
once a day of powdered hyposulphite
of soda, during the continuance of the
disease.
Two ounces of the following mixture
should be given to each animal affect
ed, two or three times day, accord
ing to the severity of the attack: Nit
rate of potash, 8 ounces; chlorate of
potash, l ounce; fluid extract of gen
tian 8 ounces; spirits of ether nitrate,
ounces; water sufficient TO make l
pint. Dose, 2 ounces. If there is any
marked increase in the breathing.
showing that the lungs are at all in
volved, add 10 the mixture, for the
first half dozen times, one-hah of l
dram of fluid extract digitalis TO each
dose.
Little or nothing should be done 10
! the swelled legs, except if they become
very painful they can be rubbed with
Ponds Extract and dry flannel ban
dages applied. If the weather is fine
in the daytime, after the fever has
abated somewhat, the animal can -
allowed to be in the corral for a few
hours. If the nights are cold, they
should be blanketed and legs bandaged.
/ When all the fever has subsidized and
the temperature down to about 1O1
degrees, the medicine should be dis
continued and a teaspoonful once or
twice a day of powdered sulphate of
iron to be given in the food for a week
or two. II any alterations have oc-

bells and other heavy weights. He
took more exercise than usual in order
to test the thing fairly. On the seventh
day of the experiment he ran several
fast races with skilful manner, but
was beaten in each race.
On the thirteenth day he again pitted
himself against the same runner and
got the best of his opponent, which
certainly would tend to confirm during
the 80 days test. He drank four pints
of milk daily for the last week. He
thinks healthy persons should take
about five pints of milk daily when no
other food is being taken. His prac-
tice was to drink milk at intervals for
two hours during the day, commencing
at o'clock in the morning and con-
tinuing until 10 at night. After that
he would take no more until the next
morning.
