Fading Away of Our Heroes.

The American people ought to be
interested in all that pertains to the
survivors of the civil war, that most
sanguinary conflict of modern times,
If not of all times. The war ended AZ
years ago, and the men who endured
the burden and heat of the bitter days
from 1851 to 1865 are getting fewer in
number every year. Another quarter
of century and they will be but a
memory. 1t is an article of belief
among the Buddhists that one of the
steps of salvation consists in right
memory 1t. is certain that nation
Is saved in no other way. The nation

NO STAIN ON HIS RECORD.
That's Where the Driver Had the Best
of the Preacher.

A New York clergyman, who often
spends his vacation in fishing the
streams of the Adirondacks, was on
one trip adopted by handsome set
ter dog, which insisted on following
him from camp to camp, as he moved
along the stream.
One day he met a party of men
working upstream with native guide.
The guide Immediately recognized the
dog as his own property.
Trying to steal my setter, are
you?" he shouted at the clergyman.
I'll have you to Jail for this! There's
a law in the woods just as big as you
have in the CITY,"
The clergyman endeavored to ex-
plain that he was an unwilling COM
panion of the dog, which had refused
to be driven away, but to little effect
until he added a two-dollar bill to his
arguments.
Its queer what strange things hap
pen to man up here" he said to the
stage-driver who later carried him
away from the woods. THAT is the
first time was ever accused of steal
ing dog"
Eyes, sir" replied the driver, SYM
pathetically, and added, after a mo-
ment's pause, For myself, sir, have
never been accused of stealing any
thing. Companion.

MedIelne ln Ancient Eaypt.

There is much evidence in inscrip
lions and manuscripts that the ancient
Egyptians practiced medicine and sur
gerry extensively, Probably their prac-
lice was based on little knowledge OF
anatomy. Each physician treated oasy
one or two diseases. The sick were
exposed in public places SO that others
who had suffered similarly might tell
them Of helpful remedies. Diseases OF
the eye were best understood and re
csiyed both medical and surgical trent
ment. The most important medical
manuscript found in Egypt Is the
Uapyrus Ebers. written 1900 B. G. and
discovered in Memphis. Disease, ac-
cording to the Egyptians. was due to
the anger of some deity, the result OF
the triumph Of evil In its struggle with
good, an idea which is still very gen,
eral throughout Africa and Asia and
which at some time has been prey alent
In modified forms in almost every race.
