QUEEN v1cToRIA,s AvIARY.

A visit to the Queen'saviary at Wind- sor is treat that comes to few. The front pens were built for such orna- mental birds as should be acquired by her Majesty, but they are nearly all filled with poultry, In one pen may be seen a very fine family of gold -pencilled Hamburgs, and in another a family of twelve ring doves, There is a very pretty story in connection with these latter birds. When her Majesty made her first Journey through Ireland after her marriage there were lowered from the top of triumphal arch, beneath which the royal carriage was passing, a pair of beautiful ring-doves. From these birds the present family at Wind sor have descended. Stringent means are adopted to prevent disease in the aviary As soon as a bird shows any signs of illness it is killed and its body cremated. London Figaro.

sign. At last, on October ?, 1894, he hand a tiny slip of paper, on which Monseigneur Soggaro had written, "Ecce apppopinquat Redemptio. Ayez confiance dans le Sacre Occur. Venez.- Soggaro." Poor Rossignoli's brain reeled. Arrangements were made by which he was to accompany Oman the Trader as a poor beggar, in a boat to Berber. Rossignoli gave out to his friends that he was going to spend few days in Khartoum. Preparing to enter the boat, where, as usual, there were crowds drawing water, he heard a voice saying, Paul, what are you do- ing here?" Inventing some pretext, he was obliged to withdraw, and the at tempt to escape by river was aban- doned.
 On October 2S Oman announced that he had all ready now with his camels, and thus Berber was reached, but in crossing the ferry there he observed that suspicion had fallen on the stran- ger, who sat untitled up. He therefore directed him to hide, on landing, in a straw hut, which he pointed out, and tO AiC NOilSCdlSu uHuGI lllOI6 SlIdW lll- side until his return, giving him some dates, meal and little water The of- ficials promptly interrogated Oman, who replied he had sold we'll all his goods, and was returning with his cam els to fetch more. But who was that stranger sitting near you in the ferry boat, and where has he disappeared to?" How should I know?" replied Oman; there was some poor old man beside me, but he was nothing to me, so did not take notice on leaving the boat which way he went" Notwith- standing this Oman was detained in prison for three days on suspicion. At the end of that period, by means of bribes and the influence of his Berber brides relations, who all averred he was a quiet, honest and law-abiding trader. he was released, and found Ros- signoi still hidden in the straw, which had actually meantime been pierced by many spears in the hue and cry to find the mysterious vanishing stranger. Without stopping for long and heart rending leave taking from his bride, Oman and the priest once more rapidly mounted their camels and without a halt reached Assuan in safety on No venber 20, though day or two after their departure from Berber strong pa trols arrived from Omdurman and rig | idly searched the whole country.

PECULIAR POISONS
GENERATED IN THE HUMAN BODY.
The Result of Imperfect Digestion of
 Food,

Aho Result or Imperfect Digestion of
 Food.
 Every living thing, plant or animal contains within itself the germs of cer- tain decay and death.
 In the human body these germs of disease and death (called by scientists ptomaines) are usually the result of imperfect digestion of food; the result of indigestion or dyspepsia.
 The stomach, from abuse, weakness, does not promptly and thoroughly di- gest the food. The result is heavy, sodden mass which ferments (the first process o9 decay), poisoning the blood, making it thin, weak and lacking in red corpuscles; poisoning the brain, causing headaches and pain in the eyes.
 Bad digestion irritates the heart, causing palpitation and finally bring ing on disease of this very important organ,
 Poor digestion poisons the kidneys, causing Brights disease and diabetes.
 And this is so because every organ, every nerve, depends upon the stomach alone for nourishment and renewal, and weak digestion shows Itself not only in loss of appetite and flesh, but in weak nerves and muddy complexion
 The great English scientist, Huxley, said the best start in life is sound stomach. Weak stomachs fail to di- gest food properly, because they lack the proper quantity of digestive acids Qactic and hydrochloric) and peptogen- ic products. The most sensible remedy in all cases of indigestion is to take af- ter each meal one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, because they supply in pleasant, harmless form all the ele- ments that weak stomachs lack.
 The regular use of Stuart's Dyspep- sia Tablets will cure every form of stomach trouble except cancer of the stomach
 They increase flesh, insure pure blood, strong nerves a bright eye and clear complexion, because all these re- suit only from wholesome food well di- gested.
 Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at 50 cents full sized package or by mail by enclosing price to Stuart Co.,, Marshall, Mich., but ask your druggist first.

The man who, when he goes to a
lofty modern building to see somebody
on the tenth floor, finds an express ele-
vator, whose first stop is at the seventh
floor, ready to start, and so reaches
the tenth floor almost before he knows
it, is sure to be impressed by the ex-
perience, even though it may not be new
to him, says the New York Sun.
Another thing that is sure to impress
a visitor is the local travel that has
sprung up in the tall buildings. While
in an elevator he will see some one get
on at one floor and get off at another
1T may be that some concern has Offices
on one floor and rooms for draughting
or for other work. on another. Or there
may be business relations between sep
arate concerns on different floors, and
going to and fro between them, just

DR.. w. j. Russell, prominent scien-
tific man, has discovered that certain
substances placed in juXtaposition to a
highly sensitive Photographic plate in
complete darkness will become pic
tured upon the plate. DR.. Russell found
that polished piece of zinc, after four
or five hours contact with seusitized
plate, has, as he paradoxicalty puts it,
photographed itself without the aid of
light, showing lines scratched on the
zinc, flaws, etc. Several other metals,
wood, silk, straw, and other substances,
also photograph themselves in Ilai kness
in the same manner. Actual contact
with the plate is not necessary, says the
London News.

the experiments screens were inter-
posed between the substances to be
photographed and the Plates. but this

You are forgetting, aren't you quite,
How fast the weeks are. flying,

Won't you remember how the tears
Were in those soft eyes starting?
Won't yon remem Der how her arms
Stole round you to caress you?

Oh! Fear not to write to mother.
Tell her how hard it is to walk

Tell her how hard 1t is to keep

Tell her to keep the lamp of prayer

Her prayers shall reach you far

Tell her you dearly love her still,

And leave you lost in sorrow.

And signs you may not smother,
You will remember when too late
You did not write to mother.
