Archaeology and the Bible.

Oriental archaeology affords MS a test
and a measure for Old Testament his.
tory; it is not a substitute for it. There
are large portions of Old Testament his
tory which can only be illustrated by
archaeological research not covered by
it-portions which from the necessity
Of the case do not admit of monumental
confirmation. The scenes of home life
in the history of the p%atriarchs, for ex-
ample, can never be the subject of an
inscription. All the archeologists can
do is to illustrate them from the life Of
other orientals and to show that they
contain nothing which is inconsistent
with either history or geography. So,
again, the wanderings of the Israelites
in the desert are not likely to be record
ed Oh the monuments of the past, but
it can be shown that these wanderings
are the necessary interlude between the
exodus from Egypt and the conquest
Of Canaan and that for both the latter
events there is sufficient archaeological
testimony. Archaeology is the hand.
maid of the Bible, not its substitute. -

Queer Cosduct of the Father of No Count
Jim Adkins.
Talking about war times" said the
old colonel, "did any of you ever hear
the story Of Jim Adkins?"
"No."
well, I'm surprised. Everybody in
the settlement knew it. Jim was a no
count sort of a fellow, and the old man
was anxious to get rid of him, so when
the war broke out and they were look

Gave him away"
Yes. jim was in the hayloft, and
they were about to leave without him
when the old man winked and pointed
to the barn.
THAT was enough, and they got him
and marched him to the front.
1.-The old man was sorry after Jim
was gone, and his conscience hurt him
bad. But he hoped for the best, until
one day he got a message that told him
Jim had been killed and buried on the
battlefield.
"Thep he packed his grip and started
right off to bring Jim's body home, if
possible, for the grief stricken mother
would have nothing else, and made life
miserable for him with her reproaches.
HE went to Virginia and was there
informed that it would be impossible tc
remove the body. So he stood over the
spot where it was buried and wept fol
three days. Then he went sadly home.
"And, 10 and behold! The first mar
he met as he neared his gate was jim

could say a word, but when he found it
was really Jim-in flesh and blood
that they had got him mixed up with
some other Adkins, and be hadn't been
killed at all, the old mar was hot! He
slowly Invested himself of his coat
then rolled up his sleeves and made for
him. 1t was the liveliest scrap you ever
saw-the old mar on top, and the two

1T took the old lady and the three
girls and two stout niggers to pull the
old man off.
"He never did explain why he did it,
and Jim didn't ask any questions. But

the first warnings of those troubles which
lead to consumption and death.
The hacking cough, splitting of blood,
weak lungs, and all similar troubles of the
organs of breathing, will surely lead to
consumption, if they are not already the
signs of it. Then there are the other indi-
cations of the approach of consumption,
such as ~night-sweats, emaciation, or vast.
ing away of flesh from bad nutrition, which,
if neglected, lead to certain death.

weak lungs, bleeding lungs, lingering and
obstinate coughs, and other bronchial and
throat diseases, which lave beer treated

cry, lave been cured by it. Do not wait
until your throat trouble becomes serious.
All bronchial and throat troubles are seri-

Dangerous Apparitions.

Every once in a while a ghost crops
up in the columns of the daily or weekly
press. This CHASTITY spirit sometimes as
sumes the part of a promenader on some
lonely road, who t~errities belated travel
ers out of their wits. Few people credit
these blood curdling accounts of the do
ings of his ghostship, but there is a
tenement which is unquestionably haunt
ed at times. When a nervous malady
attacks the human tenement the mani
festations are most appalling, and usual
ly most violent at night. Sleeplessness,
if nervousness is disregarded, becomes
chronic. and the entire system suffers in
consequence. For disturbance of the
nerves Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is a
thorough remedy, and it also is for ma
laria, rheumatism, dyspepsia, constipa-
ton and billiousness.
