The South African Bushme Are Gift
 ed With Marvellous Sight.
 It has often been remarked that civil ized people tend to become short sighted, This is because in towns and cities their tances. Savage races, on the other hand, are generally gifted with remark ably keen sight, and few tribes are more noteworthy in this respect than the African bushmen, whose eyes are veritable telescopes, This power is no doubt wise provision of nature. for the bushmen are a small race, and if they were not able to see danger d long way off they would soon oe exterminated by their various enemies whether sav- ages of other tribes or wild beasts
 A traveller in South Africa relates that while walking one day in company with friendly bushman the savage suddenly stopped, and gazing across the plain cried out that there was d lion ahead. The traveller gazed long and earnestly in the direction indicated by the bushman. but could see nothing "Nonsense he said. ''there nothing 
 with the bushman following at his heels. trembling and unwilling and still asserting that he could see lion.
 Presently the native came to dead stop and refused to budge another inch. for this time, he declared, he could see a ioness with a number of cubs. a fact which made the animal more danger ous than ever But the European. who could see no lioness, much less its cubs, pushed ahead, declaring the bushman was dreaming After walking quarter of mile however. he could dimly make out an object moving across the horizon. Still doubting that it could be the object which the bushman said he had seen. he continued to advance. and at last was able to distinguish lioness, with her cubs around her, walking leisurely toward the woods. .-Chums.

NOVelists and Babies.

The Medical Press and Circular brings a serious charge against modern novel, ists of being absurdly untrue to nature in one most important particular. It appears that the novelist of today abso- lutely ignores vital statistics He or she is lavish enough with marriages and revels in deaths, but seldom condescends to birth.
 Now, if nature acted in this way The Medical Press and Circular is right in saying that before long there would be neither novelists nor readers left upon the face of the globe. For instance, SUD- pose things really went on in the style of MT. Anthony Hopes "Prisoner of Zenda." In this stirring tale there are on an average five deaths to every chap ter, with not single birth in the whole book At this rate, as The Medical Press points out, the world would speedily become depopulated.
 In Dickens day it was far different, and in David Coppe-feld' and other books he brought plenty of young hope fuls into the world, in proper keeping with the birth rate of the country. Did he not give prominence to Mrs. Camp and Betsy Frig. whose sole concern was to usher l. the coming generationf

Bad management keeps more people ir

Bad management keeps more people in poor circumstances than any other one cause. To be successful one must look ahead and plan ahead, so that when ia vorable opportunity ples-nts itself he is ready to take advantage of it.

Miss Lucy Tucker, the daughter ofa prominent farmer of Versailles, Ind, was the victim of nervous prostration. Most of the time she was confined to bed, and was on the verge of St. Vitus' dance. It was pitiful case which medical science failed to conquer. Finally a doctor prescribed Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. Her father said:
 I've began giving the pills at once, and the next day we could see change for the better in her. We gave her one pill after each meal until she was entirely well. She has not been sick day since. We think the cure almost miracu- 1ous.
