convincing proof that the kidneys and blad-
Ger are out of order.
What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfils every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver. bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. 1t corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use Of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to 90 often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures Of the most distressing cases.

FIRST OF ALL EVlCTlONS.
Magyar Version of the Expulsion
From the Garden Of Eden.

Among the folklore Of the peasantry
Of Roumania and some of the adjoin-
ing Magyar states Of eastern Europe
is found the story Of the expulsion Of
our first parents from the garden of
Eden. 1t runs thus:
When Adam and Eve fell, God sent
Gabriel, the Magyar angel, to turn
them out Of Eden as punishment for
their sin. Gabriel was received most
courteously, food and drink Of the
best being set before him. Now, Ga
briel had q kind heart and took pity
upon the poor folk and would not ac-
cept their hospitality, remembering his
errand. So he returned and begged
that some one else be sent to evict the
sinners, as he really could not do 1t.
The Raphael, the Roumanian angel,
was sent and was received as Gabriel
had been. He, however, was very fond
Of a good dinner and so he sat down
and thoroughly enjoyed himself. The
feast over, he told the erring pair his
errand. They at once began to weep
most piteously and beg for mercy.
Their bitter sorrow so touched his aft
er dinner heart that he, too, returned
and asked that some one else be sent,
rs he could not possibly turn out the
poor folk after accepting their hospital
ity. Then it was that Michael, the
German angel. was sent. He was re-
ceived as the others by the trembling
pair and treated even more sumptu-
ously. He sat down and enjoyed him
self till the last morsel Of food had
vanished and there wasn't drop Of
liquor left. Then he arose. and, turn
ing to Lis host and hostess, said, 'Now,
then, out you 80. and be quick about
it." Most piteously did Adam and Eve
beg at least for time. even reminding
him chat he had partaken Of their
bread. All in vain. Thus it was that
our first parents were driven out Of
Eden.

A DESERT CARAVAN.
Its Start Across the Dreary Sand
Wastes Of Sahara.

1t3 Start ACROSS the Dreary SOno
Wastes of Sahara.
There were the last words, instruc-
tons, cautions, adieus, and then Abdul
lah held up his hand. Ali gave the cry
Of the camel driver, and the uncouth
beasts, twisting and snarling under
their loads, struggled to their feet.
Another cry, and they began their
voyage. They traversed the square,
passed the mosque, turned down mar
row street and in five minutes crossed
the line that bounded the oasis and en-
tered upon the desert.
Immediately the dun leader took his
place at the left and slightly in advance
The fourth on the right Of the dun was
the black racer. He carried two wa

came in ranks fifteen camels, Ali riding

the two women, with enormous red and
white cotton sunshades stretched be-
hind them; then at all interval Of six
rods came fifteen camels unattended.
They simply followed the squad in
front. The dun leader and the black
racer had lanyards about their necks.
The other camels had no harness save
the surcingles that held their loads.
In a panic. a sandstorm. fusillade
from Bedouins, a mirage and q race
for water, if Abdullah and Ali could
grasp these lanyards the caravan was
saved since the other camels followed
the dun leader and the black racer as
sheep follow the bellwether.
Abdullah walked at the left, abreast
of the dun. At intervals he rode the
black racer.
The pace Of a caravan is two miles
an hour, but Abdullah's, the two Grip
pies included, could make two miles
and a quarter. The black racer could
make sixty miles day for five days
without drinking, but at the end Of
such a journey his hump would be no
larger than a pincushion, and his tenn

Words Ending In Gator"

There never has been any general
rule of pronunciation as to nouns end
ing in "ator." In Scotland the mode
differed from the English rule in more
usually throwing the accent back. Was
it not Erskine who in his earlier days,
having spoken of curator, making the
word \ dactyl. was interrupted by the
judge before whom he was pleading
with, "'Cura-tor,' if you please, Mr..
Erskine; a Latin word with long
penult.''
"Thank you. my lord" was his ready
retort, "for your correction. l bow to
the authority Of so distinguished a
senator and orator as your lord

A Mighty Man.

Topham, the prince of English strong
men, had knots Of muscles where the
armpits are in the ordinary man. He
could take a bar Of iron ~ inches in
diameter and feet long, place the
middle Of it over the back Of his neck
and then force the ends forward until
they met before his face. On one occa-
sion he called upon a village black
smith and made Of him an everlasting
enemy by picking up number OF
horseshoes and swapping them in two
as easily as if they had been pine
sticks.

and other nocturnal animals can see
in absolute darkness. This error arises
from the fact that in these animals the
pupil of the eye is very large or dilata-
Bile. and in subdued or very feeble
light they can see much better than
can man. One can readily demonstrate
the fallacy of the supposition by TAX
ing an owl or other nocturnal animal
into a perfectly dark room, as we have
done, and touching it with the hand.
1t does not move, even though 1t be an
untamed animal. Cats and other noc-
turnal animals are enormously thought
to emit light from their eyes because
when looking toward the light the
crystalline lens of the eye produces
slaring reflection. The ideas that swans
sing when dying and moles open their
eyes at the time Of death are handed
down from the writings Of Pliny and
represent ignorance Of the facts OF
zoology.
: We were once seriously asked by
teacher. at what age do the little
lambs tails drop off," He had accu-
rately observed that the tails of the
lambs are long. while those of the old
sheep are short. and he had obtained
q false idea. which is. however, preva-
lent. OF course he was shocked to
learn that sheep raisers amputate the
tails to prevent the soiling Of the wool.
