When my little son could scarcely
walk, says Rev. c. T. Brady, west
ern missionary, I took him to the
cathedral one day, when I returned
for something I had forgotten after
morning service.
I left the child in the nave, and
when went back to him he had adj
vanced halfway up the middle aisle,
and was standing where the sun
threw golden light about his curly
head. A tiny object he was in that
great church.
It was very still. He was looking
about in every direction in the most
curious and eager way. To my fancy
he seemed like little angel when he
said in his sweet, childish treble,
which echoed and reecnoed beneath
the vaulted roof:
Papa, where's Jesus? Where's Je-
sus?"
He had been told that the church
was the house of the Saviour, and on
this, his first visit, he expected to see
his Lord.
That baby is quite grown up now.
Not in the faintest particular does he
resemble an angel. The other day,
when I rode off to the wars, he aston
ished even me with this request:
Papa, if you get wounded, don't
forget to bring me the bullet that
knocks you out. want it for .
souvenir for my collection"
Fortunately for me, if unfortunate
ly for him, / brought him no bullet

La Grippe is epidemic catarrh.-It spares
no class or nationality. The cultured and
the ignorant, the aristocrat and the pau.
per. The masses and the classes are alike
subject to Ia grippe. None are exempt-all
are liable.
Have you the grip? Or, rather, has the
grip got you? Grip is we'll named. The
original French term, la grippe, has been
shortened by the busy American to read
grip" Without intending to do so a new
word has been coined that exactly describes
the case. As if some hideous giant with
awful Grip had clutched us in its fatal clasp.
Men, women, children, whole towns and
cities are caught in the baneful grip of a
terrible monster

A RHYME OF RUMMAGE.
Metrical Mention Of the Wonderful
Variety OF Articles on
Sale.

The rummage sale, the rummage
sale; all hail the festive rnmmage sale!
The latest, greatest, paramountest
issue since the dinner pail;" the fad
that clears the attic out; and likewise
also clears the cellar, and swaps of
one mans scrap-heap for the dollars Of
some other TELLER; the raging craze
that captivates all classes and soci.
cites, and finds market for old junk;
it matters not how high it is. There's
nothing new beneath the sun, nor in
the modern rummage sale-it looks
as if the stock in trade were gathered
by Texas gale-and people crowd the
bargain rooms, all clamoring to buy
and pay, for superannuated trash that
other people throw away. Variety's
the essence of this social mercan.
tile endeavor, and what you can't find
at the sale you'll never find at all-no,
never. The list is all-embracing, rang
ing from . broken looking glass te
cooking stoves, can-openers, false hair
and candlesticks of brass; there's
stuffed canary birds, with half the
cotton stun hanging out; bottles,
Bibles, boots and bonnets, leather belts
for lean and stout; neckties, picture
frames and gimlets, carpet stretchers,
petticoats; soup tureens and con.
certinas that won't play one-half their
notes; battered cuspidors and scissors.
spectacles, mismated socks; wash.
boards, rat traps, stovepipe hats and
wornout collars by the box; old sus.
penders, flags and rip saws; watches
that have lost their wheels; earrings,
bootjacks, garters, razors, slippers,

chromos, fountain pens with both pen
and fountain busted; every kind Of
wooden, tin and crock'ry things to put
things in; tintypes of somebody's
grandma's long-forgotten kith and kin.
There's comedy and pathos in the
blending of this bric-a-brac; it wakens
trains of memory, of the faces, days
and years far back. Rare visions of
long bygone scenes most surely will
the heart regale, amid the rag-tag rel.

Fraud i'm a show Ring.

A remarkable case has recently been
tried at Birmingham, England. A
farmer there showed young bull for
which he was awarded first prize.
The bull was afterwards sold at a very
high price. The second prize winner
protested the age of the bull, and on
investigation it was found that the
animal was nearly three months more
than the age given, and should have
gone in an older class. Fraud in re-
cording the age was pretty plainly
brought home to the exhibitor and the
presiding judge fined him 5000. The
English press regards this as we'll
merited, though severe, punishment
and expects it will prove warning to
inscriptions competitors at stock
shows. The judge ordered the culprit
to be kept in prison till the fine is paid.

Litter for scratchinx she de-,

Litter for scratching sheds may be
made of cheap hay or straw. Some
use dry leaves, but they are somewhat
difficult to handle and break up easily.
Some farmers accomplish the same
end by feeding their hens sheaf grain,
and doubtless this is as good to do, es-
pecially in the case of sheaf oats. But
where the thrashing has been done the
practice of scattering the grain in lit
ter is . good one and induces exercise.

Timely Word of warninx.

The continued use of stimulant fer
tilizers will eventually exhaust the
soil of it's natural fertility; hence it
is poor economy to apply them con-
tinuously. It has been said that slim
ulant manures ''enrich the father but
impoverish the son." This is literally
true, as has BEEN demonstrated in
the case of clover. Clovers will APP
propriate all the potash and phos-
phoric acid which may be liberated
to them by lime or plaster. Contin-
ued cultivation on these lines has
been known to exhaust the two in
gradients mentioned and to make the
lands clover sick.-National Stock

PrOcrastinatiOn is the Thief of
Health.

Nature is very wise and careful
mother but she is dumb. she
speaks by signs. The man or wo-
man who does not heed her signs
or fails to understand them must
pay the penalty. Some day there
will be a step over the line beyond
which natures warnings cease and
her penalties begin. For instance,
there is man who for years never
knew he had a stomach, it performed
its work SO perfectly Some day af-
ter he has a little sour or bitter ris-
ing in the throat. He does not heed
it. Later he feels an uncomfortable
fullness after eating, a distress in
the region of the stomach and per-
haps he is uncomfortable enough to
wonder whether he ought not to do
something for himself. But he does
not get any farther than wondering.
He becomes sleepless, loses flesh,

carvings of boats and the legs of animals

deposit jars containing food and drink IN
the tombs, and each jar was sealed with
clay stopper bearing the stamp of the king
for whose tomb the jar was intended. An
examination of these clay shoppers has
helped greatly in the reading of the names
of the monarchs.

of article The number 20 occurs often ana
100 and 200 are several times repeated. On
another series of seals measures for water
or wine and for corn or other dry produce
are found, showing that so early a distinc-
tiOn was made2 between measures for
liquids and dry measures. The remarkable
ivory carvings of heads from an inlaid cab
met date from the earliest period and are
unique instances of the advance of art In
that time. The ivory tablets are easy TO
account for, being made of tusks easily Sc
cured in Egypt or from surrounding coun-
tries, but the large amount of ebony used
on other tablets points to wide commerce,
even at this date, for ebony did not grow
anywhere in the neighborhood of Egypt
and must have been brought from distant
parts of Asia.
