A PACING OSTRICH.
Jacksonville Boasts Bird that Races
in Harness.

The most unique steed ever attached
to harness is Oliver W., of Florida, a
400-pound. full-blooded African ostrich.
Not only has the distinction of being
the first pacing ostrich ever known,
but he can get up n speed that would
trouble the fastest of horses.
Hitched to light carriage, driven by
his keeper and manager, the big pacing
ostrich may be seen daily in the road
near Jacksonville and it is doubtful II
ever a more peculiar and interesting
sight was seen. His spe- 4 IL simply re-
markable and nothing on the road can
pass or even hold him. He has gone n
mile In 2:02 several times and once 1t Is
said went below the two-minute mark.
He has already won several big match
races and also came out first In the
most unique trial of speed ever per-
formed In this part of the country. a

acquired In the time of the conquista-

colonies the cabelleros decorated their
horses with n great many trapplngs ard
often had sharp nails hanging to the
saddles and the nets with which the
animals were covered. To avoid con-
tact with these the horses took short
steps, which finally developed into the
Rmble that Is now SO common.

The Trouble in India,

There is serious condition of af
fairs in China just now. The Boxers,
who seem to be opposed to almost
everything that is good and worthy,
have brought about reign of ter

several encounters and very large
number of people have been killed,
including many missionaries. For
eign representatives there have be-
come very much alarmed and have
called on, their governments for pro
lection. In Pekin there is mob rule,
and the Chinese are fleeing from the
city. The powers are agreed, ant
will act promptly in the matter.

made this nation strong and leader
among the governments of the earth.

REARING THE CHILD.

In trying to understand child-life,
make two mental pictures. In one,
draw in the child as block of marble,
with mother, grandmother, teacher
working away doggedly, relentlessly;
chiseling, hammering, pounding it in
to what they are pleased to consider
its proper shape In the other, draw
the child as a plant, with roots firmly
set in the soil Of circumstance, with Pc
culiar tendencies of its own outward
growth, naturally, gladly reaching out
ward to what was meant to be its bios
soming. Then tell what picture APP
peals to you as more nearly approach
ing truth.
I have faith enough in human under
standing to believe that none will
choose the first, but all the last, to
hang in their gallery of ideals How
much simpler the beautiful growing
process than the harsh chiseling pro-
cess! All that we who love the child
have to do is carefully to keep in good
condition it's environment; to see that
it gets it's needed sunshine; to study
most carefully it's natural growth and
nourish that, and perhaps gently and
lovingly to prune it now and then

POETRY UNDER DIFFICULTIES.

sat me down to write of Daphne's
eyes,
So beautiful are they, and, oh, SO
blue.
To tell of how they'd make a match
less prize
For some great strapping lover, bold
and true;
But all my pens and all my
inks
Exertions lead me to the Links.
I could not write of Daphne's cherry
lips
For thinking of the way that Daphne
drives;
And DER her rosy cheek my poor
muse trips
For dwelling ON her card of tours
and fives.
No matter how I try, I find
Her golf is always in my mind
When l would tell of lovely Daphne s
frown,
And how my very soul of souls it
cuts,
Before I get word of it set down
I'm gadding off to GLOW my Daphne
putts!"
I wish to thunder I could see
My way clear of this misery!
I'd love ito write sonnet to her hair,
So fair it is, so sunny and so soft!
No tresses sung by poets can compare;
But, oh, you ought to see that
maiden loft!
Confound it! there go again!
Most miserable, I, of men!
And Daphne's smiles very golden
ray,
pom which cen Oberon himself
would fain to sup;
Night turns aside for bright and joy
GUS day
When Daphne-with one stroke doth
fetch the cup!
Oh, tutt! What is the earthly
use?
Avaunt, o Golf! Go to the
Deuce!

I There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was supposed to be in
durable. For great many years doctors pro.
nounced it local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires constitutional
treatment: Halls Catarrh Cure. manufactured
by +. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to teaspoon
full. It acts directly on the blood and mucous

SMALLPOX DISTRIBUTORS.

How the Germs Are Nurtured and the
Disease Is Spread.
It would seem that people will never
learn to be careful. The recent alarm
ing spread of that dire epidemic, small
pox, throughout different sections of
the country has been traced by physi-
clans and sanitarians in many instances
directly to the moldy and rotting layers
of paper and paste which cover the
walls of many houses. The practice OF
laying layer after layer of paper on a
wall, using common -four paste, is espe-
cially calculated to create homes for
disease germs. People could not do
more to effect such result if they
tried. The rotting vegetable matter
affords caves from which are ready to
dart forth the infection at every oppOr-
tunity. There is no excuse for this
practice, as walls and ceilings can be
coated with a pure, clearly and sani-
tary material like Alabastine, for in
stance, at no greater expense. Alabas-
tine is a rock-base cement, which in
corporates itself with the wall or cell
ing. It is easily applied, comes ready
to mix with cold water, requires no
washing or scraping before renewing
or retinting, is beautiful, long-lasting
and safe.
For walls that have been infected,
nothing is equal to Alabastine as a
disinfectant to render them pure and
clean and the rooms once more habit
able.
