Criterion. AS they sal together on the
veranda theduke persistently asked the

heard singing in the poets trees. as

den. Longfellow was neither botanist
nor or1ithologist, and did not know.

fellow such an ignorant person." said
the duke subsequently to an American
acquaintance. Indeed! Pray, on what
subject" "Why, he could not tell me
the names of the birds and flowers to
be heard and seen in his own garden"

speak, the American asked. Ger.

The Courageous Blind.


OF all the physical Affections which
come to human life, hopeless blindness,
selling on its victim in youth or in
active middle age, seems in anticipa-
ton the most terrible. Even the agon-
izing forms Of mortal disease. like can.
Ger, are self-limited, and their very
acuteness invokes all that sympathy
and nursing can do for their alleyia-
ton. But the blind are soon left to
settle down to the dreary round of
semi-helplessncss, and their imprison-
ment suggests sympathy only to the
stranger. To their own little world it
becomes a matter Of course.
Yet in spite of this appalling test of
human endurance the blind are distin-
gulshed for sweetness and lofty resig-
nation. The finality of their doom
doubtless contributes something to
their courage. But when we get to the
heart of their resignation we generally
find that out of their enforced darkness
has sprung q communion with God
more sustaining than that enjoyed by
others. The gulf between the seen and
the unseen narrows for them day by
day. They learn to believe in friend,
child, wife, husband, whom they can
not see Why not in God?
They live much within themselves,
and think deeply of the things Of the
spirit. Soon they begin to reckon their
blessings instead of their miseries.
With that change comes peace.

AN INQUlSITIvE BEAR.
He Investigated Can of Nitro glyce
inc With linn ed inte Results.


IF you want to kill black bear
deader than an Egyptian mummy just
get him into wrestle with few cans
of nitro-g lycerine," is the advice OF
Michael OBrien, of Williamsport, Pa.
And his word goes long way since
his experience in Potter county the
other day.
O'Brien is an oil well shooter, who
has met with many strange adventures
during the time that he has been haul
ing explosives over the Potter county
mountains, but none will compare with
that Of which this tale relates. O'Brien
was bound for the Gaines Oil field, driv-
ing through the mountains with four
cans of the we'll shooting explosive in
his wagon. The lone traveller camped
at noon in little valley and rode one
horse to small stream down the slope
for water, leading the other. While the
horses We're drinking they suddenly
snorted and broke into q wild run in
spite of anything O'Bren could do to
stop them. He had just time to see Il
big black bear shamble out of the edge
of the woods and make for them Oh a
trot.
Down the road the horse and rider
tore. CHANGING over his shoulder
O'Brien saw the bear stop, Smile at
the wagon, and then, with a shove of
his big paw, send can Of nitro glycer-
inc tumbling into the road. The next
thing O'Brien knew he was picking
himself out Of the dense underbrush
along the roadside. His horse was not
TO be seen, and down where the wagon
had stood there was neither wagon nor
bear. Trees had been uprooted, and
devastation reigned on every hand.
Half an hours search revealed one
foot of the bear and hub of one OF
the wheels of the wagon. Later both
horses were found unhurt.

and splitting. Catarrh is nuisance
and source of annoyance, not only
to the one who has it, but everybody
else. The thick, yellow discharge
from the head produces feeling Of
personal defilement, and the odor of
the breath is almost intolerable.
The catarrhal poison brings on
stomach troubles and affects the Kid
neys and Bladder. It attacks the
soft bones and tissues of the head
and throat, causing total or partial
deafness, the loss of smell, and Civ
ing to the voice a rasping, nasal
swang. No part of the body is secure
from its ravages. Catarrh makes
you sick all over, for it is a dis
ease of the blood, and circulates all
through the system, and for this
reason, sprays, washes, inhalers,
powders and salves have proven
failures.
The way to cure Catarrh thor
oughly and permanently is to cleanse
the blood of the unhealthy secretions
that keep the membranes of the body
inflamed, and nothing does this so
