Compulsory Pluck.

The colonel Of a crack cavalry regi-
ment was impressed with the eficien-
cy of certain volunteer infantry di.
vision during some recent maneuvers,
and in order to test their courage sug-
gested to their leader that they should
face charge made by his men.
The officer in command consented
and drew his men up in the required
position to face the ordeal.
Hitherto the courage of the foot
regiment had remained unquestioned,
but when they saw the cavalry thun-
dering down upon them and almost
on top of them they turned and fed
in most disorderly manner, save one
man, who remained steadfast on bend
ed knee and with fixed bayonet.
By dexterous movement the cav
airy charge was brought to termins-
ton within foot or 80 of the hero,
and their commander, approaching
the valiant one, said:
"Bravol You are the bravest man
in the regiment and worth all the rest
of them put together. But tell me
why didn't you fy with the others ?"
$50 I should have DONE" said the
hero, "but my foot got stuck in a
hole"

Told Stanley All About II.

During Stsnley's last stay in Lon
don he was present one evening at a
very swell affair, and the attention
paid to him was 30 annoying that he
was delighted when he had an oppor-
tunity Of slipping away unnotioed.
He found a quiet corner in the smok-
ing room and was enjoying a cigar
when spruce young fellow. who, it
turned out, was a lieutenant in the
navy, came up.
To Stanley's surprise, the lieuten.
ant began TO tell him all about Africa,
snd it soon became evident that he did
not know he was talking 10 the great
explorer.
Other listeners strolled in. and coon
there was quite crowd listening to
the young man telling the most aston
ishing things about the dark continent,
the KOngo, the shire district, the ma
tive races, and 90 on.
At FIRST Stanley endesvored 20 COR
rect his mistakes, but the lieutenant
knew better, and 30 he permitted him
to talk on. Finally this eKtraordi-
nary and laughsble scene was brought
to a conclusion by one Of the guests
saying:
"But, Mr.. Stanley, you told US
Stanley" cried the lieutenant. "Is
this Stanley, the African explorer ?"
Certainly" was the reply. The
lieutenant gave one look around, tried
to speak, flushed scarlst and then
dashed out Of the room, followed by
roar Of laughter, in which even Stan
ley joined.

Origin Of the Horse.

In Wissen fur ALE Professor Hoe-
mig discusses in some detail the origin
of the horse of today. He finds that
the horse of neolithic times was not
specifically distinct from the horse of
the present. While there is no doubt
that the horse of that period was used
by man for food, there seems to be no
conclusive evidence as to whether 1t
was domesticated or not. His own
opinion, however, is that it was prob
ably domesticated.
The horse of that time was closely
allied to the tarpan or semiwlld horse
that lived in southern Russia up to a
century ago. This was "hog
named" short legged, large headed
beast. 1t seems probable that the
domesticated horses Of the Germans
of Caesars time were derived from
this breed.
The Egyptians had horses as early
as 1900 B. G. These were long,
named, more like the Arab horses,
and came from Assyria. Where the
Assyrians obtained them is unknown
but it was probably from southern
Asia, where this long-maned breed
has been developed in all probability
as the result of long continued domes-
tication. The modern horse is cross
between these two breeds, with
further mixture Of the Arab horse.
This Arab horse, too, was itselfa des-
,endant of the earlier long.maned
horse.
The origin of the lOng-maned horse
8 matter Of doubt, but Professor
Koenig thinks it may have been from
IN extinct Indian species.

And What Then ?

When Philip de Neri, who, in the
sixteenth century, renounced the her
editary honors of Florentine nobility
for the service of God, was living In
an Italian university, young man
came to him with face full Of delight,
and told him that he had come TO the
law school of that place on account of
its great fame, and that he intended to
spare no pains or labor to get through
his studies as soon as possible.
Philip waited for his conclusion with
great patience. and then said:
"Well, and when you have got
through your course of studies, what
do you mean to do p
"Then l shall take my doctors de-
gree, answered the young man.
"And then ?" asked Philip again.
"Aud then, continued the youth.
II shall have a number OF difficult
questions to manage, shall catch peo.
ples notice by my eloluence, my zeal,
my learning, my acuteness, and gain a
great reputation"
"And then2' repeated the aged and
honored teacher.
"And then, replied the youth, why,
there cant be a question, shall be
promoted to some high Office or other.
Besides, shall make money aud grow
rich.
"And then ?" repeated Philip.
"And then" pursued the young law
yer, II shall be comfortably and hon.
orably situated in wealth and dignity"
"And then 7" asked the venerable
man.
"And then, )" said the youth, "and
then-and then-then l shall die"
Here Philip raised his voice.
"And what then I"
WhereupOn the young man made no
answer, but cast down his head and
went away. The last "And then p

The PrOlOngation OF Life.


which many scientists have tried to
solve. The fact that we do grow old
is incontestable, and the changes in
the tissues that come with increasing
age are known the to Psychologists, but
what cauees these changes, and wheth-
er they are the cause or the result Of
old age, science has been unable to
show.
We know that the process Of aging
is hardening process. The soft and
yielding structures, such as arteries
and the cartillages, stifFen with age;
the juicy tissues dry up, and fbrOus
materials, or those containing lime,
strangle or take the place of the struc-
lures which are concerned in the vital
processes.
Some believe that it is such wear.
ing-Out process, that the body is used
up by work, just as an engine is, or
watch. But this is no explanation for
living machine which has within it,
self the power of regeneration, as the
animal body has, is not comparable to
machine of ifeless material, which
friction wears away and which cannot
be automatically renewed.
The cause of old age in the tissues
is gradual loss Of the power of re
generation. As the cells wear out
with use they can no longer be re-
placed by other cells of the same sort
which are able to the same work, but
their place is filled by fbrous material
which is incapable of doing the work
necessary to nutrition and vital action.
This explains the process of grow.
ing old, but gives no hint as to the
cause. One of the most recent theo-
ries proposed to account for this fatal
change in the body is that of Profes.
sol Metchnikof of the Pasteur Insti.
tute in Paris. He says that there is
a constant warfare going on between
the cells of the body-the "nobie"
cells, such as those Of the brain, the |
walls of the arteries, and the various
organs, on the one hand, and those Of |
the lower order, the "phagocytes' or
eating cells on the other. The noble
cells are always on the defensive, and
so long as they are well nourishei they
are able to resist the attacks of their
enemies. But within the large intes-
tine are numbers of bacteria constantly
creating pOisons which weaken the re-
sisting power OF these noble cells.
The remedy is to lessen the production
of these poisons by attacking the ba'
cilli which make them.
This Professor Metchnikof propos.
es to do by introducing harmless bac'
terra into the intestine to take the
place of the injurious ones. he says
that among these harmless bacilli are
the Tactic acid bacilli-those which
are present in sour milk; and he ad-
vocates, therefore, the daily drinking
of buttermilk.
His theory is simple, but he him
self is not so simple as to regard but
termilk as the elixir Of life. He main
tains orly that the use of sour milk
helps to prolong life by preventing
the formation of poisons which short

In spite Of the doubt, II you'll fight 1t Out,
And show heart that is brave and stout;
II you'll augh at the jeers and refuse the tean
You'll force the ever-reluetani cheers
That the world denies when coward cries.
To give to the man who brsvely tries;
And you'll win success with little song
II you'll sing the song you go alongl
II you'll sing song you Plod along,
You'll find that the busy, rushing throng
WI catch the strain Of the glad refrain;
I at the sun will follow the binding rain;
That the clouds will fly from the blaekened sky
That the stars will come out by and by;
And you Il make new friends, till hope deseendS
From where the placid rainbow bends
And all because of a little song
you'll sing the song as you Plod along
