Among the many canine qualities worthy of imitation lover of the -four footed brothers" emphasizes their contented resignation to the cir cumstapces of life. Dogs, he says, do not go about trying to do good to other dogs by urging them to bark in the same key and bite with the same tooth as themselves, nor, which is a mercifu. provision of nature, do they become bored by the people with whom their lot Is cast and want to try new mas ter every few months. Whatever the disadvantages of their homes may be, they stand by them and make cheer. full best of It. Over and again dog puts his heart before his outraged stomach and lets his affections domi- nate his indigestion rather than desert his master for better board. Many a master, concludes the dog champion would do well to emulate in points like these the meanest of his little yellow curs."

The Human Body.

The blood, muscles, bones and other parts of the human body are composed of many chemical constituents, and a correct chemical analysis would be long and tedious. The specific gravity of the blood is 1,02S, and 779 parts of every 1000 are water. Of the other parts chloride of sodium, chloride po- tassium, carbonate magnesia, calcium phosphate, calcium lactate, potassium phosphate, sodium carbonate and other constituents are found This is gen. erally true, with variations also, of tissues and bone. The fundamental substance of bone is composed of or ganic matter, combined with various inorganic salts. in which calcium phos. phate largely predominates. In addi- ton the bones contain calcium carbon nte, calcium hucride, magnesium phos- phate, sodium phosphate and sodium chloride.

A .l....r and n King.


 On tht. cv:liu: of one of the rooms in Sans Souci, the world renowned palace of Frederick the Great in Prussia, Is the painting of huge spider with its web. The reason fer this odd decora' ton is that enc morning just as tE@ king was about to drink his usua' morning cup of chocolate in this room he turned aside for something. and when, a moment later. he took up tn" cup he noticed small spider had fallen into it. Immediately upon giv- ing an order for fresh cup pistol report was heard. and 1t was discov cred that the cook had shot himself The reason for this, it was later found out was that he had poisoned the chocolate, and of course when a fresh cup was ordered he supposed his treachery had been discovered. It wa in remembrance of this narrow escape that Frederick ordered spiders wei to be painted on the ceiling.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all it's stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being constitutional disease, requires constitutional treatment. Halls Ca- tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby de- stroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and as- sisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer one hundred dollars for any case that 1t fails to cure. Send for list of testi- monials.

Wife Wonders that Caller Didn't Let
 Husband Finish His Narration. A good story has been said to con- tain the accumulated wisdom of the race, and the man who makes 1t may be only putting together the labor of thousands who went before him. But In telling story one voice Is better than several. Most persons have had, at one time or another, the sort of ex- perience which this dialogue embodies: "We were downtown last Monday" began the husband, "and-"
 "Pnrdon me- dear, 1t was Tuesday" |'Yes, CT, yes, last Tuesday we were down on High street"
 At was Cannon street, dear"
 ~"Thank you. darling, yes. thought 1t was cold and put on my over coat-"
 "But 1t wasn't very cold, Henry. at least not 80 cold as you said 1t would be-"
 Tt was pretty cold, anyhow. We had just passed Moran & Pipers store"
 -'It isn't Moran & Piper's any more. you know. It Is Moran & Go. now" "Yes, of course, since the failure" "They didn't fail. Piper sold out But go on with your story. dear; I know MT. Barney wants to hear it." s"Well. l had my pockets full of things that Margaret had bought" A'Why, Henry. didn't buy many things. You know we had just paid the rent, and didn't have my Monday shopping allowance at all. That's why waited till Tuesday"
 Henry IS silent for few seconds, with a weak, concave expression on his face Margaret waits in smiling expectation, then says:
 -Go on, dear"
 "Ah-h, oh! Wasn't it at the corner that we met Timkins? That is, it was at the corner that we met Timkins- and-we met Timkins at the corner" :" As there are no objections. Henry regains the courage of the declarative sentence. .aka.s ti "11mkins was carrying big bag of things@ .........

Indian Tribes of the South.

The Cherokees, as far back as the whites have any knowledge of them occupied portions of northeast Ala bama, southeast Tennessee, western North Carolina and a portion of north west Georgia. They were essentially a hill people and their homes were among the mountain ranges. The Choctaws, on the contrary, occupied the comparatively level regions of middle west Alabama and eastern Mississippi Between them and the Cherokees were the Creeks on the northwest and the Chickasaws on the north. The Chero kees and Choctaws were widely sepa' rated and were never neighbors, al least in historic times.-Montgomery (Ala) Advertiser.

 Sorrow, Swats! Tears shed,
 Shed tears like water; Your great Akhoond is dead
 That's Swats the matter. Mourn, City of Swat, Your great Akhoond is not, But lain mid worms to rot, His mortal part alone; his soul was caught
 Because he was a good Akhoond), Up to the bosom of Mahound. .r Though earthly walls his frame surround (For ever hallowed be the groundD And sceptres mock the lowly mound, And say, Hes now of no Akhoond! His soul is in the skies The azures skies that bend above his loved Metropolis of Swat. He sees with larger, other eyes Athwart all earthly mysteries
 He knows what's Swat!
 Let Swat bury the great Akhoond With noise of mourning and of lamen'
 tation
 Let Swat bury the great Akhoond With the noise of the mourning of the
 Swattish nation!
 Fallen is at length
 Its tower of strength
 Its sun Is dimmed ere it had mooned Dead lies the great Akhoond!
 The great Akhoond of Swat
 Is not! l George T. Lanigan.
