Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the

What Happened When Patience HadH
Ceased to be q Virtue

WHIST Happened When Patience HafI
Ceased to be q Virtue.
There is an unusually quiet citizen
up near the crown of Piety hill who is
just now thinking a great deal Of MIN
self. One of his neighbors has three
pet dogs. When separated they are
well behaved and censiderate to
strangers, but when together they.
seem to regard it as an imperative
duty to try to eat any agent or other
strange caller at the house After they
had bitten three little children belong
ing to the quiet citizen, torn his Wife'st
best gown, and snapped at him while.
he crossed the lot, he decided that duty
as, a husband and father called for ac-
ton ON his part. One evening he
reached the house with a bulldog, bred
IN the purple, and much to be, admired
because he was SO overwhelmingly ugly.
In a few days he followed his master
wherever he went. Thus assured, the
man made call on his neighbor with
the three pets. The French bull want
ed to play, and cut great antics in
trying to entice the trio into the game.
Ihey just snarled, showed their teeth
and darted at him when the opening
seemed favorable. Finally he was bit
ten on the end of his stub tail by the
Scotch terrier, and he made a rush
that mis- master checked in time. LET
him CO., urged the host. He's not
dangerous, and the dogs can take care
OF themselves. I'll be responsible"
The quiet man demurred until the pets
were charging right into his lap after
their prey, when he let go as if to
protect himself. The imported cyclone
had the air full of dogs for about three
minutes. There was a continuous
crash Of bric-a-brac, all the light fur
niture was dancing, the host was kick
Ing about wildly, and the quiet man
was making an admirable bluff at try
Ing to restrain his property. When
the entertainment was over the sitting
room looked like a junk shop. The
neighbors had some little argument
about whether the bull pup should be
killed on the spot, and when the quiet
man left he went out backward, eau
tlonlng his neighbor in low tone of
voice not to do anything rash. The
nelghbor has given away two of his
pets, and advertised for one of these
lighting white bulldogs with pink eyes.

JOHN MUIR AT HIS WORK.
The Good Mans Discoveries on tn
Muir Glacier.

Muir Glacier.
"For twenty-five years John Muir
has made out of doors his realm. For
more than half this time he lived and
wandered alone over the high Sierras,
through the Yosemite valley, and
among the glaciers of California and
Alaska, studying, sketching, climbing.
At night he sometimes rested luxuri-
ously, wrapped in half-blanket beside
a campfire; sometimes, when fuel was
wanting, and the way too arduous to
admit OF carrying his piece of blanket,
he followed for himself a snug nest
IN the snow. He is no longer a young
man.. but when last saw him he was
making plans to go again to the North;
to explore the four new glaciers dis
covered last summer by the Hartman
expedition. What do you come here
for? two Alaskan Indians once asked
him, when they had accompanied him
as far, through perilous ways, as he
could hire or coax them to go. TO get
knowledge was his reply. The Indians
grunted; they had no words to express
their opinion of this extraordinary lu-
matte. They turned back and left him
to venture alone across the great gla-
cier, which now bears his name. So
trihing a matter as their deserton
could not deter him from his purpose.
He built cabin at the edges of the
glacier, and there settled to work,
and to live, for two long years. He
made daily trips over that icy region
of deep gorges, rugged descents and
vast moraines, taking notes and max.
ing sketches, until he had obtained tne
knowledge, and the understanding of
the knowledge, that he was after.
Muir Glacier is the largest glacier dis
charging into the wonderful Glacier
Bay on the Alaskan coast. Being the
most accessible one in that region,
tourists are allowed to go ashore to
climb upon it's sheer, icy cliffs, and
watch the many icebergs that go tuIa-
bling down from it. This is thrill
ing experience to the globe-trotter, but
to dwell there beside the glacier, to
study the phenomena, encounter perils.
alone and unaided, is an experience
that few besides John Muir would
court "-Adaline Knapp In Ainslee's.
