Brave Reuben James.

The Naval history of the United
States is replete with instances
of individual bravery. Golden Days
prints the story of one of the most
remarkable of such deeds, that Of
who saved the life of his COM
mander, the famous Com. Stephen
Decatur, by an act of deliberate self
sacrifice. During a battle with Tripo-
Titan war vessels in the early part OF
the present century, Decatur boarded
one of the enemy's ships to avenge the
death of his brother, who had been
treacherously killed by a Tripolitan
commander. The commander of the
ship was singled out for attack by De-
catur as soon as he got aboard, and a
fierce hand to hand conflict ensued
The Tripolitan, a large, powerful man,
grappled with Decatur, and both fell
to the deck. Just then another officer
aimed a blow with his sword at Deca-
tur's defenseless head. Reuben James,
american sailor, both of whose arms
were temporarily disabled by wounds,
saw the impending blow, and dashing
forward, he interpoFed his own head to
save that of his captain. Fortunately
the blow was a glancing one, but it
made a terrible cash in the mans
skull. 1t was a long time before he
recovered from the effects of the
wound. His brave act was suitably
recognized by congress, which granted
him a pension. hOu he continued
in active service. When his injuries
had healed and he was again ready for
duty, James was asked by Decatur
what he could do for him. The sailor,
who was quarter gunner on the vessel
and had charge of the mems ham
mocks, touched his hat in a customary
salute, and after a moments reflection
replied: Nothing, sir, as l knows on,
'cept you might let some'un else give
out the hammocks when they're piped
down"

From Farmers Review: The col
iege dairy finds that 1t does. Before
the LIST Of April, 1899, the herdsman at
the Kansas Agricultural College was
a man with nc special training along
agricultural lines. He was a good
man to do what he was told and to
draw his salary, but there his interest
ended. When asked how the recent
snowstorm OIL change of feed affected
the milk yield of his COWS he didn't
know, although he had weighed and
recorded each milking. During this
time the college was feeding four head
or calves on skim-milk, and this herds
man made them gain at the rate of
90 pounds per month per head. or IL
pounds per day.
on the LIST of April a graduate OF
the college and a special student in
carrying took up the work of herds
a He is a man that is constantly
on the alert for new DEVELOPMENTS.
When milking a fresh cow he can
scarcely wait until the milk is weighed
In order to see if there is a gain or
loss from previous milkings. When
the calves are weighed he wants to
know Immediately how much they
gained. With the same feeds at his
command he made the four calves
mentioned above gain an average Of
% pounds per head per month, or 1.8
POUNDS per day, an increase of go per
cent. This was done by carefully
watching the calves; the moment one
OF them began to scour he saw it. re-
duced the supply of milk, gave a little
castor oil, and in various other ways
sought to bring it back to normal con-
altlon. This was accomplished in about
tWenty-four hours, when the calf
would keep on gaining at the rate of a
pound and a half or two pounds per
day.
Yet there are farmers who say that
education don't pay, and that book
learning is a farce. There is no pro-
fession in the universe thai allows a
greater display of intellect thar farm
Ing, and nowhere is it needed more in
order to increase the profits. The
farmer is called upon to solve cues
lions in soil physics, in chemistry, bot
any, entomology, bacteriology, veter-
mary s1cence, northumberland in fact
can call into play a knowledge of all
the sciences and arts. To do this he
must be educated. This education not
only makes him a better farmer, but
makes his work a pleasure. No one
who has not experienced it can ap-
preciate the satisfaction that comes
from seeing a plant, an insect, a bird
or an animal of any kind, and to be
able to name it, tell something of it's
life history, and especially to know Of
its economic value to the farmer. Such
education helps the farmer to realize
the dignity of his calling, and helps to
place his profession in the front rank
Of the worlds industries, where it be-
longs.

False Substitute for Opium.

Several weeks ago it was announced
by a Texas journal, which made some
p%retense to scientific knowledge, that
a new drug had been discovered that
afforded a cure for the opium habit. 1t
was alleged that the plant from which
the drug was derived was named husa,
and that it's essence was the most diff
fusable stimulant known. 1t was said
to act as a sedative, but not as a mar
cotic. The story was told in such a
convincing way that some of the north
ern medical papers reprinted it. 1t
now appears that Prof. John Uri Lloyd
of Cincinnati has been investigating
the subject. He sought from the man
ufacturer of the commercial prepara-
tion both specimens Of the plant and
samples Of the stuff the Texan was sell
ling. No amount of persuasion served
to secure any husa leaves. But the
compound which was said to be made
from them was examined carefully,
and it's ingredients were all easily
identified. There vas a good deal of
water, a little glycerine, some alcohol,
a considerable amount of salicylic acid
and from 1.3 to 20 per cent of NOR
phine. 1t thus appears that the husa
is a fraud, and the man who has foist-
ed the story about it on an unsuspect-
ing public might also be mistaken for
one on a dark night.-New York Tri-
bune.

a proper inspection. The ligEe was
actually blown out by the air issuing
from the wound. But he recovered
and lived on to old age The canon
tells also of the wife of the quarter
master, who had stood fire with her
husband in South America, and been
severely wounded. At Waterloo she
fingered with the regiment after the
hiring commenced. However, the ad-
tutant told her that a battlefield was
not the place for an officers wife, she
reluctantly withdrew, but only to sta
ton herself in the belfry of the
church at Waterloo, from which she
a probably a finer and more extern
sive view Of the battle than even Ma
poleon or Wellington" The canon
winds up his stories of Waterloo by a
remarkable and interesting anecdote
told him by the sister of a distinguish
ed fellow Of Trinity, noted as having
been the first Roman Catholic to at
tain the honor of fellowship: Years
ago this lady paid a visit to the island
OF Mauritius. She was introduced to a
lady of great beauty and commanding
appearance, who ordered every one
about, and whose features were unmis-
takably Spanish. Who was this lady?
An infant picked up on the field OF
Waterloo from behind a wagon after
he battle. Her parents were known
to God alone. She was found by an en-
sign, Heiliger by name, perhaps an
officer in the kings German legion. He
placed her under the care of a soldiers
wife, paying for her support, and as
she grew up, seeing how beautiful and
talented she promised to be, had he1
educated and finally married her, as
Dick Swiveller did the marchioness.
He held in his latter days an appoint
ment in the Mauritius, and here fol-
lows the extraordinary pendant to this
romantic tale. The great granddaugh-
ter of the Waterloo 'waif and stray
(they mature and marry very early in
those tropical climes) was the wife of
Baron de Lesseps, the originator of the
Suez and the unfortunate designer of
the Panama canal. At the age of II
she fell in love with the baron, then
about 70, and proposed to him accord
ing to the custom of the Mauritius, by
a floral offering. The old baron was
so amazed that he declared that she
must intend the offering fer his son,
who was with him. Non, monsieur.
c'est a vous.'"
