BUDS and FLOWERS OF.
7 HOME LIFE.
Paine's Celery Compound Makes and Keeps
the Children Well and Strong.
Mothers Make 1t the Home Medicine
For the Little Ones.

The children, God bless them, are the buds
and flowers of our homes. Without their
prattle and hearty laughter, our homes would
be desolate. They should ever be carefully
tended in childhood and YOUTH if we expect
them to ripen into perfect men and women.
In the home and at school, the children
have their times of ill health and suffering.
We often note the pallid and bloodless cheeks,
heavy eyes, nervous movements, and witch
ings of limbs and muscles. They complain of
headache, drowsiness, WEAKNESS, dyspepsia,
and indigestion. All such symptoms and all
ments mean that the seeds of disease will have
fast and firm hold, unless proper measures
are taken to restore a perfect condition of
health. ~ ..'
Thousands of wise and prudent parents have
made their children happy, healthy, and vgor-
Gus by giving them natures medicine, Paine's
Celery Compound. in many severe and com
plicated cases, Paines Celery Compound has
restored health when the little ones were given
up by physicians.
If your dear ones are not as hearty, strong,
and rugged as they. should be, try the health
giving virtues of Paine's Celery Compound.
1t makes and keeps the children well.

Another popular yet erroneous notion
is that men shot through the yitals

found on the field in striking positions,

the position was taken after the fall
AS a rule man who is bit above the

body instinctively resists, just as it
does when one slips or is pushed or col

a Miraculous Vault.

Inc m0Slt interesting place OF If pil-
grimage In Dublin is st. Michan'ss
church. where the organ is still to be
seen upon which Handel is said to have
composed his Messiah. Z In the grave
yard is the last resting place of Robert
Emmett, and the vault at St Michan's
provides more greWsome thrill than
the morgue. The sexton lifts an iron
door and descends a few rude steps,
carrying a light, without which the.
place would be pitch dark. You follow
and find yourself i'll a narrow passage.
I from which cell-like recesses belonging
to different families branch OFF. Wheth-
er it is owing to the extreme dryness
of the surroundings or to some mysteri-
Gus property of the place the process of
decay has been arrested, and the fea-
lures Of persons dead for two centuries
may be recognized from authentic por-
traits. Here lie the brothers Sheares,
who were executed for their share in
the united Irish conspiracy, side by
side almost with the Earl Of Leitrim,
who was murdered about thirty years
ago.. The earl's ancestors for hundreds
Of years back rest in the same vault.
Perhaps the strangest thing about the
vault is the fact that, apart from the
weird sensa ton, there is nothing Of
fensive in the surroundings

Snakes Waste Little Time Eating.
a serpent viii go for weeks, some
times even for months without feed
ing. Then it may take three rabbits or
ducks, one after the other, at a single
meal and afterward become torpid
while digestion proceeds. When, after
a suffici period of fasting, it gets
disposed to eat and a rabbit happens to
be introduced into it's cage, it may
plainly be seen that the rabbits pres
#ence is quickly noticed by it. The
snake will begin to move slowly about
till it has brought its snout opposite the
rabbits muzzle. Then. in an instant, it
will seize the rabbits held in its
mouth, simultaneously coiling it's pow
erful body around it and crushing it
to death at once.
The action is so instantaneous that it
is impossible for the rabbit to suffer.
Certainly it can suffer no more than
when killed by a poulterer. The snake
does not Immediately uncoil its folds,
but continues fora time to hold its vic
tim tightly embraced. sometimes rock
ing itself gently to and fro. Then it
slowly unWinds it's huge body and once
more takes the rabbits head in its
mouth and swallows it.

In Brittany when housewife begins
to knead dough she makesa cross with

cause the dough to multiply itself. On
the coast Of the channel the dough is
.adjured to initiate the leaven. the mil.
Ter and the baker and to rise.
The oven is sacred object and con-
nected with crowds of superstitions.
The oven is dedicated, with ceremo-

serpent worship n India.

Serpent worship, once very widely
diffused, survives in India. Sometimes
when Hindoos find cobra in some
screvice in the wall Of their house it
will often be reyerenced, fed and pro-
pitiated, and If fear or the death Of
some one bitten by it induces them to
remove it they will handle it tenderly
and let it loose in some field. When
Hindoos are bitten, they have far more
confidence in their magic spell or
"muntra" than in any medicine, even il
they do not scruple to make use of
medical aid.
