UNIQUE WEDDING PRESENT.
ibis Ia the Odd Gift of an Enelish
SAliliRE tn lIia .RElle Eloaf

Ehis In the Odd Gift of an Enelish
Soldier to His Bride-Elect.
The question so often ssked: What
shall give her for wedding pres
ent?' has been answered in an original
manner by an Englishman, who be-
slowed upon his bride-elect the unique
mememto of a piece of his cwn skull,
tastefully set in gold. Such an offering
could not be general under the best
circumstances, for, after all, skull
has its limits, and fellow must retain
enough to cover the little brain he pos
sesses, or there would be no marriage
ceremony.
In the present instance, this senti-
mental giver had his head cracked by a
Boer, and the surgeon who did the ire
panning kindly Saved the pieces"
When the man recovered he took one
bit, after it had been cured, to jewell
er, who fashioned fetching little
frame for it. The bride, it is said. now
wears the souvenir next her heart: but
when she can have the real thing, it
does seem silly. However, the real
pinch will come when divorce is in the
air.

The British
..SOldier..

Much has been said about the hardi-
hood and bravery of the British SOL
der, writes Bradford Daniels, who
served 10 months in South Africa dur
ing the present war, but as I saw him
both on the veldt and in the hospital
his robustness may be seriously ques-
toned. Often the regular, when he
arrived at Cape Town, was not in fit
condition for an arduous campaign.
Excuses had sapped his strength to
such an extent that body of regu-
lars, trained as they were to carry a
heavy kit and to march, could not fol-
low any of the colonial corps for even
two hours of hard marching. Many a
regular died in the hospital from COM
paratively slight wounds because his
blood was tainted while beside some
dangerously wounded colonial who had
lived clean life, recovered.
The regulars bravery cannot be
questioned, however. He simply laughs
at death; and, all through the war,
the English infantry would attack i'm
pregnable positions which the more
wary colonial troops would never think
of attacking. But this courage is large
ly the courage of the brute which does
not realize what death is. To live in
a hospital filled with regulars after a
big engagement and hear them, even
before their wounds are closed, fill the

BAFFIN LAND RANKS
SECOND IN SIZE IN
THE WORLD. {

fifty or sixty miles long, that has q
descent of about five feet to the mile.
The conspicuous honor of being the
largest island in the world has been
held by quite number of islands at
various stages Of geographical knowl-
edge. School children were taught for
many years that Australia was the
largest island. Then Australia came
properly to be regarded as one of the
continental masses and Borneo took its
place as the largest island Less than
twenty years ago it was discovered
that New Guinea was larger than Bor-
neo and so the latter island took sec
ond place. When Peary practically
outlined the northern coast of Green
land, early in the last decade
gecgraphers began to think that they
had overlooked an important section
of the earth's surface and so they
placed Greenland at the head of the
list Of islands. At last Baffin Land
looms up as an island 1,OO5 statute
miles in length, with breadth vary
ing from 200 to 500 miles, the aver
age being 305 miles. Its area is there
fore about 100000 square miles, In
other words, the island is larger than
the state of Texas by about 100000
square miles or about ten times as
large as either Scotland or Ireland
Though it takes it's place as second in
the list of islands, Baffin Land ap-
pears to be of no great value, since it
is composed, as far as we know, of
barren rocks, partly covered with ice.
The twelve largest islands in the
world in order of size, are: Green
land, Baffin Land, New Guinea, .Bor-
neo, Madagascar, Sumatra, Nippon
(the largest island of Japan, Great
Britain, Celebes, New Zealand (6outh
island), Java and Cuba.-Chicago

A methodist BISHOP
GIVES PE-RU-NA Great CREDIT.
Writes His Recommendation
for the Famous Catarrh
Remedy, Pe-ru-na.

The day was when men Of promi-
nence hesitated to give their testimon-
ials to proprietary medicines for pub
lication. This remains true today Of
most proprietary medicines. But Pc
merits are known to so many people Of
high and low station that none hesi-
tates to see his name in print recon-
mending Peruna.
The following letters from pastors
who use Peruna speak for themselves:
Rev. E. G. Smith, pastor of the Pres
byterian Church, of Greensboro. Ca,
writes:
"My little boy had been suffering for
some time with catarrh of the lower
bowels. Other remedies had failed, but
after taking two bottles of Peruna the
trouble almost entirely disappeared. For
this special malady 1 consider it well
nigh a specific. REV. E. G. Smith.
Rev. A. S. Vaughn, Eureka Springs,
Ark, says: II had been Frustrated by
congestive chills and was almost dead;
as soon as able to be about, 1 COM
menced the use of Peruna. I took five
bottles; my strength returned rapidly
and I am now enjoying my usual
health. Rev. A. S. Vauhgn.
II you do not derive prompt and sat-
isfactory results from the use of Pc

American Argonauts.

F. L. B. asks: why were the people
who crossed the plains in 1S49 to seek
gold in California called american
Argonauts," as we'll as "Forty-niners" !?
Answer-The name was applied to
them by Bret Harte in his ballads of
the "Forty-niners." The similarity of
their conditions suggested the quest of
the Argonauts of Greek antiquity. The
original Argonauts are reputed to have
undertaken a long journey into I'M
known seas. The expedition was I'M
der the command of Jason and it's pur-
ported object was to fetch from Colchis
the golden fleece of ram which was
suspended on an oak and guarded by
a sleepless dragon. The adventurous
spirit of the "Forty-niners" may be
compared to that Of the early Argo-
nauts, hence the application Of the
name.-Ed.

CLERICS
HIS VICTIMS

One morning man came to me with
a letter written on stamped paper and
signed with the name of clergyman
of my church in a town in Massachu-
sets, says writer in the Ladies'
Home Journal. His story, told in great
embarrassment, was that he had run
away from home. According to the
letter his aged mother was dying with
grief, and the appeal of the rector
was to the man to come back at once.
The minister's check for So, drawn on
bank in the same town was inclosed
with which to pay car fare. He was
distressed and was anxious to go, but
the difficulty was that he had been in
New York only five days, knew no one
and could not be identified at any
bank. Would cash the check? told
him to come back in couple of hours,
and meantime I telegraphed inquiries
to Rev. c.. The answer came back:
do not know any such man." When
the fellow returned he was arrested,
and in his pocket a neatly kept men,
orandum book was found containing
the names of nearly every clergyman
in Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland,
Pittsburg and Philadelphia. This had
been his route. On each page of the
book were four columns, headed,
Name, date, amount and remarks"
and in these were such entries as:
;"Rev. R, 81. Got after an hours
work" "Rev. S.. No good. Can't
work" "Rev. T, Sc. An easy
mark" The dates ran back through
three years. When he had completed
his tour he would probably either have
