one Of much pathos and productive of good,
since it prevents cruelty to the poor despised

current among the European peasantry to the
effect that the robins are indebted for their red

the hands and feet and the thorns from the
brow OF the cruciiied Christ.

Buffalo Hatf 70 Gilman.

A near relation of the late Baron
Munchausen on the maternal side,
lineally descended from Ananias and
Sapphira, was telling a party of
friends about freeing bull buffalo
in one of the trees of California.
That story lacks likelihood" re-
marked the man who knows every
thing. like so many other men; 1.-The
buffalo belongs to the ruminant fam
lily, has four or five stomachs and
walks on hoofs. 1t has no claws at
all and could no more climbsa tree than
a Jersey cow"
AS a general proposition you are
right" said the story-teller, with per-
fectly unruff1ed mien, according to the
New York Times. But this case was
quite exceptional. We We're after the
buffalo with four of the most vicious
dogs that / ever knew. One was boar
hound. one a great Dane, one psovie,
or wolf hound, and the other a regis
tered bulldog, with jaws like wrought
iron. Well. they brought the buffalo
to bay at the foot of a big tree and
pressed him SO blamed hard that he
just had to climb. That was his only
salvation'''

One Advantage of old Age.

Prof. Jowett. the great master Of
Balliol College, commenting on the
crucial topic of growing old, wrote to
a friend: THE later years of life APP
pear to me, from a certain point of
view, to be the best. They are less
disturbed by care and the world; we
begin to understand that things really
never did matter SO much as we sup
posed, and that we are able to see
them more in their true proportion in
stead of being overwhelmed by them.
We are more resigned to the will of
God. neither afraid to depart nor over
anxious to stay. We cannot see into
another life, but we believe with an
inextinguishable hope that there is
something still reserved for u.s."

catarrh Causes Female Diseases.

America is the land of nervous women.
Ine great majority of nervous women
are so because they are suffering from
some form Of female disease. BY far
the greatest number of female troubles
are caused directly by catarrh. These
women despair of recovery. Female
trouble is so common, so prevalent.
that they accept it as almost inevitable.
The greatest obstacle in the way of re-
covery is that they do not understand
that 1t is catarrh which is the source
of their illness.
In female complaint. ninety nine cases
out OF one hundred are nothing but
catarrh.
