fashioned coliseum, dug out OF the
earth. Then comes the sacrifice. A
large bull, which has been starved sew

forth to be carved by the men appoint.
ed by the king to offer the sacrifice.
Through a gate the enraged animal
Is turned loose on three men. who are
armed only with short penknives. AS
he rushes at them they are to stick the
blade in his arteries and bleed him to
death. One by one his arteries are cut,
until he loses so much blood he cannot
longer fight. Then he is killed, roast
ed in the arena, and everyone Of the
guests must eat of the sacrifice. In the
event the bull kills the men, they are
roasted and fed to the multitude and
the animal is kept for another sacri-
Zee.
In other tribe, the Huh-lulss, just to
the north, the people worship snakes,
lizards and vultures. Anyone killing
one of these creatures Is wrsthfully
put to death to expiate the crime. As
their neighbors. they have their day
of sacrifice, but the offerings are al
ways Of human beings. By lot the
victim is chosen, and on an appointed
d sy he is slaughtered and cooked before
the crowd who sit on the ground in d
circle around the burning stake tC
watch the merriment.
In another tribe to the east the in
habitauts of the dark region are nc

heads off their offenders and cast them
into the river. In that land, when
ever a person dies he is supposed to gr

He Preferred $40 a Mounth

Admiral Dewey's son recently engag-
ed in business in New York at a salary
of $40 a month, beginning at the bottom
at his fathers request. An unrcrupu-
lous editor of a paper saw an opportu-
nifty to use the son of the great hero r
advertising purposes and offered him
q position on his editorial staff. "You
need write no articles'p do any re-
porting" said he: ''just sign your name
to an article every day and 1 will pay
you 5000 q month"; But the son OF
the Msnisl hero positively refused to
lend his name to any such di shonesty

Faith Cure.

1t is well-known fact that faith
| goes a long way 10 curing q weak
minded patient of disease. Many good
! hearted clergymen have been induced
to sign certificates that certain patent
compounds have done them an abun-
dance OF good. Analysed, the CON-
pound would be found to be . bad
quality of gin, worth % cents a gallon
favored with some sort of bitters that
made the drink taste for all
the world like coun-
try prohibition hotel cocktail. 1t went
to the right spot in the clerical stom-
| ach, and required but little imagina-
ton to make the amateur drinker
| think the medicine was beneficial, and,
with. the assistance of prayer. was
greatly benefiting him. There is an
other class Of patients that think they
have diseases it Is not possible for them
to have. They are picnic for a pot
ssh-lime-iuiced-liver quack, and af-
ter taking several bottles of something.
at 81 per bottle, are ready to sign a
certificate that they have been cured
OF consumption, which they never had.
An English paper in the line of
faith tells of something that happened
in the experience OF famous Bir-
mingham physician. One day a some
what distracted mother brought her
daughter to see him. The girl was suf-
fering from what is known among peo-
pie as general lowness- There was
nothing much the matter with her.
but she was pale and listless, and did
not care about seating or doing any
thing. The doctor, after due consul
tation, prescribed for her a glass of
clsret three times a day with her
meals. The mother was somewhat
deaf, but apparently heard all he said,
and bore Off her daughter, determined
to carry out the prescription to the
very letter. In ten days time they
were back again, and the girl
looked a different creature. She
was rosy-cheeked, smiling and the
picture of health. The doctor con-
graduated himself upon the keen in
sight he had displayed in his diagno-
sis of the case. Il am glad to see that
your daughter is so much BETTER" he
said. YES" exclaimed the exited
and grateful mother: Thanks to
you, doctor. She has had Just what
you ordered. She has eaten carrots
three times day since we were here,
and sometimes oftener-and once or
twice uncooked-and now look at
her,"-New York Picsyune.

Land of the Sky

In western North Carolina, between
the Blue Ridge on the east aud the AL
leghanies on the west, in the beautiful
valley of the French Broad, Two thou
sand feet above the sea, lies Asheville,
beautiful, picturesque and world-famed
as one of the most pleasant resorts in
America. It is a land of bright skies
and incompatible climate, whose
praises have been sung by poets, and
whose beauties of stream, valley and
mountain height have furnished sub
ject and inspiration for the painter
brush. This is truly the "Lsnd of the
Sky" and there is perhaps no more
beautiful region on the continent to at
tract pleasure tourists or health seek
ers. Convenient schedules and very
low rates to Asheville via Southern

Slgnal winch is attracting wide attention
among railway OrncldlS. Inc new system
accomplishes the following results 1t To-
Gates and signals every moving train on a
roadbed within a mile of another train.
Beth engineers receive the signal. The
operation of the signal itself is as simple
as the ringing of electric door bell. Fogs.
darkness smoke, tunnels, curves, snow
storms or anything that would tend to OBJ
scure the vision of the engineer have no
effect upon the system. for vision has moth
ing to do with it. When a train is stopped
on the road a following train or a train
coming in the opposite direction on the
same track is signaled the instant it gets
within the danger limit of mile.
The Central Michigan road, which has
been looked upon as a paper line, 1t is
stated, is to be built, making another north
and-south line from Michigan south to Gin
cinnati. Hon. J. w. Boynton, one of the
projectors of the road has succeeded in
placing bonds enough to build the road from
Fostoria, o., to Grand Haven. Mich.
Eventually it is proposed to push the road
through to the oil fields of Ohio and the
coal fields of Virginia A portion of the
distance the old roadbed of the Mansfield
& Coldwater road will be utilized, which
has been graded ready for the ties and rails
since 1893 Mr. Boynton says the construc-
ton of the road will be begun at once. and
he expects that between Grand Rapids,
Mich, and Pioneer, o., the road will be COM
pleted the present year.
