A few miles from Muhokya we
came to Kikarongo, circular lake.

says writer in the Westminter Ga
zette from Uganda. The water is
slightly salt, and is greatly appreciat-
ed by the hippos, who come here In
large parties from Lake Ruisamba to
bathe. The lake is shallow for a few
yards only and then deepens rapidly,
so the hippos, who do not like deep
water, never go very far from the
shore.
On n still day 1t is an amusing pas
time to sit by the lake and watch the
great brutes enjoy themselves. For
a moment nothing Is seen, then sud-
denly score or more of huge heads
burst through the water with loud
snorts and squirting jets of water
through their nostrils; they stare
around with their ugly little piglike
eyes, yawn prodigiously, showing a
fearful array of tusks and cavernous
throat, then sink with satisfied CUR
gle below the surface, to repeat the
performance minute or two after
ward.
Sometimes one stcnds almost up
right in the water; then he rolls over
with a sounding splash, showing a
broad expanse of back like a huge
porpoise. Or too venturesome
young bachelor approaches a select
circle of veterans, who resent his In.
trusion and drive him away with
roars and grunts. There is something
irresistibly suggestive Of humanity
about their ungainly gambols. Only
bathing machines are wanted to COM
plete the picture.

instantly. Corlett was 40 and his wife
35.
Every known fact In the tragedy
points to deliberate intent--to a con.
viction which had settled on them
both. that their life together must
end. Monday afternoon after her hus.
band had returned Mrs. Corlett tried
TO anticipate the end by taking four
tablets of corrosive sublimate But
the husband foiled the attempt,
secured help and saved her life that
he might take It him>,lf just as he
had planned.
II was the old story--thc high spir.

the one man she had linked TO, tired
of fretting her life away In the
monotony and humdrum of a country
village alone, while her husband
worked all day in the city.
The visit OF another man late Sun
day afternoon, detected by the hus
band, precipitated the tragedy.
The woman, French-ltallan by birth
beautiful, talented, of superb presence
and figure, was kept In the rooms OF
the country hotel among people who
did not care for gayety, for excite
ment, which was as the breath of life
to her.
The husband, q giant In stature, six
feet four in height, weighing over 25C
pounds, brilliant, man who had made
and lost two or three fortunes, anc
was rising to place in his new profes

was away from all day.
The end was a grewsome, horribi,

ALMOST A MIRACLE
His Body Distorted and Racked
Win Rheumatism for 7wo
Years This Young
Man Now Walks
and Works.

For a generation DR.. Williams Pink
Pills have been curing rheumatism and
other diseases caused by poor blood and
dyring that time certain cures have been
published that were so marvellous in
their nature that they have been termed
modern miracles. Such cure was that
of Charles Calhoun, Jr., now living
at Capron, N. Y, and employed in n
mill there. The facts in the case are
widely known in the neighborhood in
winch Mr.. Calhoun lives and the cure
is regarded locally as nothing short of
miraculous.
When the Calhoun family was living
mt winfield, N. T., some years ago the
young man was taken sick. "Our family
doctor pronounced IL infiammatory
rheumatism, says Mr.. Calhoun, "and
he attended me for about a year. For
nine months l was confined to the bed
and IN such agony that could not bear
the weight OF the sheets nor to have
anyone touch me. Icould not move
myself at all.
"The rheumatism was complicated
with a nervous trouble resembling st.
Vitus' dance, my limbs and lead jerked
and suffered all the agonies possible.

My fingers began to draw out of shape

In spite of the doctors treatment and
all the medicine took / kept getting
worse My feet swelled so that could
not get stocking on and could not
straighten up at all. Finally the doctor
told my father he could do nothing
more for me.
"At this time DIR. Williams Pink Pills
were recommended to me and found
relief in the first box. After taking
three boxes could walk. l continued
to take them steadily until j was cured
That was in 1895. / have worked every
