Paid the Full Penalty.

In the early days of railways North
American Indians were many and loco
motives few. but in comparatively
small number of years these positions
have been reversed. Unfortunately,
perhaps, for lovers Of adventure yarns,
the interesting experiences Of the driv.
ers and guards who accompanied the
first trains which ran from East to
West across the United States have
only on rare occasions been recorded In
black and white; and, therefore, when
an old hand can be induced to speak
Of those stirring times, he is sure Of a
ready audience.
More than once, remarked an Amer1-
can .engine-driver, l remember charg-
ing through herd Of buffaloes, which,
as the train approached, obstinately re
fused to leave the line, preferring to be
run down rather than to turn tail on
the iron horse.
Their surprise at this strange mon
ster, however, could not have equalled
that Of the two Indians who made a
desperate attack on an engine, I'm the
hope, I presume, Of securing Its scalp.
Mounted on fleet steeds, they took up
positions, the one close to the line It,
self, and the other some little distance
to the right on the opposite side. As
the train, which I myself was driving,
came laundering along, the latter dex-
terously threw his lasso over the funnel
of the engine, while the former let fly
an arrow at the cab. In the excitement
at seeing his fellow warrior violently
1erked by the lasso clean out Of the
saddle, the first native forced his horse
on to the line, where both paid the full
penalty for his rashness.
The train was stopped, and we rush
ed to the Indian whose lasso still chung
to the engine, but his fall had broken
his neck. The horse, rather wiser than
his master, fed from the scene.

A great many people want to know
how large Texas is in area. They look
in quite number Of alleged statistical
abstracts and never find the same fig

ures Of Texas area are 252. 698 square
miles-equal to about SO per cent OF
the entire area of the United States and

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should be Carefully
Guided In Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance; or moro
frequently from a mothers neglect TO
properly instruct her daughterl
Tradition says woman must suffer. '"
and young women are so taught.
There Is a little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. II young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets It.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address Is
Lynn, Mass.
The following letter from Miss MARIE
r. JOHNSON. Centralia, Pa shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
Pinkham helped her: .
"My health became SO poor that I
had to leave school. was tired all the
time, and had dreadful pains in my
side and back. / was also troubled
with irregularity of menses. / was
very weak, and lost SO much flesh that
my friends became alarmed. My
mother, who Is firm believer in your
remedies from experience, thought per-
haps they. might benefit me. and wrote
you for advice. ] followed the advice
you gave, and used Lydia e. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as
you directed, and am now as well as I
ever was. have gained flesh and have
Q good color. am completely cured Of

How Grapes Can Re Kent.

Purchase lot of small bags and get
a ball OF Irvine. Pick out perfect
buEches of grapes, handling them as
little as possible. and being sure that
they are perfectly dry. Remove any
poor berries carefully and place each
bunch in paper bag. Tie mp each bag
and then place in shallow box in
cool room. The grapes must not be
ripe enough to drop from the stems.
Only one layer Of the bags must be
placed in box. Concord grapes can
be kept until Christmas in this way.
1t is well to examine the bags every few
days, and II there are any damp spots,
open the bag and remove the decayed
fruit.-The Housekeeper.

The Earth's Cloud Belt.

A writer in knowledge makes a WV
i'd picture of the great belt of clouds,
some three hundred miles in breadth,
which surrounds the earth a little
north of the equator. Within this belt
rain almost necessarily falls, some
times in sheets, and the wind seldom
stirs. Before the invention of steam
ships, vessels becalmed in the cloud
belt" sometimes drifted helpless for
weeks. Even now the crossing of this
belt, where everything is surcharged
with moisture, is a disagreeable expe-
rience for voyagers going from the
North to the South Atlantic ocean, or
vice versa. The belt can be traced
across equatorial Africa and across the
American isthmus, and the great riv-
ers, Amazon, Orinoco, Niger, Nile and
Congo, arise in these r~ain-soaked re-
gions, which are like exhaustless reser-
voirs. The cause of the equatorial
cloud-belt is connected with the trade
winds, and in the course of a year it
oscillates north and south over a dis
lance equal to about three times its
own breadth.
