effort to save as many quails from

possible aud has set traps tor the
birds ON his place aear town with the
Intention OF protecting and feeding
the helpless creatures until spring
lie says that unless something is
done to rescue the birds from the
hawks and the effects of the severe
weather, that viii all perish before

weather aud the heavy fail of snow
which has robbed the birds of bot h
food and shelter. they are rapid y
dying, and the sheriff makes the sug :
gestion that all those Interested IN

Of thickets and distributing grain and
other food in convenient places. He
will care tor all birds brought him by

THE CRY OF THE SHUT IN.

By MRS. JULIA NJ. WOODS.
Dear Lord, thou knowest best!
The pains, the ills of this sad lie
have been
The opening of the door, the enter
ing in
To everlasting rest
Even now is entering in:
We have no need in shrinking fear to
wait,
Trembling upon the threshold of the
galel
For aow doth rest begin.
Within my quiet room
Is heaven. ior | suffer Gods dear will;
And angels can no more; trust him
still
He shineth in the gloom.
And SO content lie,
Close clasped to Jesus bosom, max
ing moan;
Not lonely. though SO oft with him
alone
My soul doth sweetly cry
Dear Lord, thou kuowest best!
Thou gavest to thy dear Son the sut-
ferer's pa,t;
Each paug but presses my poor ach-
ing heart
Closer to Carist, my Rest.

81 Petr6leO no es un substitute del
Aceite de Hfgado de BacaIaO

Durante la presente escasez de
aceite de hfgado de bacalao, algunos
industriales han hecho grandes es
fuerzos para popularizar en- provecho
propio el uso de petroleo 8 parafna
como subtancia alimenticia.
Bastante rfdiculo es en- yerdad, por
no califcarlo de otro modo, el asegu
rar que Ell petr61eo puede subStituir al
aceite de hfgado de bacalao.
La gran reputation de que goza Ell
aceite de hfgado de bacdlao eS debido
4 sus grandes propiedades nutritivas &
alimenticias. En- verdad, el aceite de
hfgado de bacalao no solamente es
I'm alimento, sino que es el mejor me-
dicamento que Sc conoce en- Medicina
Y atin no Sc ha podido encontrar en- Ia
naturaleza Otro a1imento igual, y

tuto del aceite de hfgado de bacalao,
es atrabuir al petroleo 8 parafna pro-
piedades que no tiene. Ell petroleo
carece de la propiedad esencial de to-
do a1imento, es decir, la de ser asimi-
liable. Ell petr6leo 6 para6na no sola-
mente no es una substantial asimilable,
sino que cuando Sc toma interiormente
es expelido en- SD totalidad por las
evacuaciones intestinales, causando in
digestion, irritacion del estomago y
de los intestinos, intermediates del
hfgado del pancreas y con frecuen-
cia diarrea y disenteria.
La presente escasez de aceite higado
de bacalao es un case exceptional que
no durara nfucho tempo, pero ha des-
mostrado va Ia gran demanda que
constantemente hay en- ell mundo por
este producto alimenticio. Miles de
personas, j6venes y ancianos, usan
continuamente este aceite y su salud y
su vida depende de FL.
Afortunadamente la mayor parte
del aceite de baca1ao que Sc consume
en- el mundo es administrado bajo la

rada por los Sres. Scott & Bovine,
| Oufmicos de Nueva York, qulenes
debido 4 sus muchos amos de expe-
riencia en- la materia, vieron venir la

Ell GItinnO amor

de su professor de belleza. Eran
las once de la mafiana. Desea.
ba la marquesa que el conde de

desconocida.

tas de rentas y de af1os acude
de cuatro a cinco a matar ell
fastidio de que suelen hailarse

via.
A los ocho dias madame de
Fleurigueuse sc habia insinuado
en- la intimidad del brisileflo.
Ell conde lie refrio su historic,
sin omitir el mas mfnimo deta-
lie de su vida.
Huerfano de padre y madre,
habia salido del Brasil a la edad
de doce amos con objeto de ir a
educarse en- un colegio de Paris.
No habia regresado a America,
donde uno de sus tfos, propieta-
rio de innumerables haciendas,
lie legarfa una inmensa fortuna.
No habfa conocido a su madre
Y Sc mostro COP la marQuesaI
