SAVED By HIS TEETH.
Quick Wit Of Missionary Among .
Tribe Of cannibals.

Quick Wit Of a Missionary Among q
Tribe Of cannibals.
Missionaries have much to contend
with in dealing with the tribes on
some of the islands of the southern
Pacific, and am reminded of an in
cident happening on remote island
of the Fiji group whose tribes were
still Influenced by the sayagery of
cannibalism A German missionary
had made excellent progress toward
the enlightenment Of tribe of saw
ages in the interior when he was tax
en- ill and forced to abandon his work
and seek recuperation in a village
along the coast.
During his absence native medicine
man succeeded in undoing all that the
good German father had accomplished.
The latter was warned that under the
circumstances it would be unsafe for
him to return to the scene of his la
bors upon his recovery, but he decid-
ed that his duty called him there. and
upon regaining his strength he jour
neyed inland to the village whose in
habitants had gone over to the teach
ings of the medicine man.
His reception was decidedly a warm
one, and he was informed that unless
he made practical demonstration of
the superiority of his teachings over
those of the medicine man he would
be converted in short order into food
for the hungry tribesmen. He at once
realized that his life hung upon a
slender thread and endeavored to show
to the savages by argument@th their
conclusions as to his edible qualities
were entirely erroneous and that they
should turn their thoughts to other
kinds of food as well as to higher sub
jects
His efforts were in vain, however
and just as. he was about to be struck
down by the uplifted clubs Of the chief
men In the tribe he happily bethought
himself of the fact that his upper teeth
were false. Opening his mouth, be
hastily extracted his set, fourished Il
In the faces Of his astounded oppo
nents. and particularly the features Of
the medicine man, and, replacing the
teeth as suddenly as he had extracted
them, rebuked his charges in man
ner which can better be imagined thar

he had performed miracle In taking
out and replacing his own teeth, drove
the medicine man from the village anC

place as uplifter Of their material an(

The Wrong Side of the Fence.

An inmate of a Scotch 1unatic
asylum wandered down to the high
way in front of the asylum to watch
the operations of force of laborers,
who were repairing the public road.
Leaning his elbows on the fence he
eyed the workers calmly and at length
remarked:

any wonder, the rug hunter asked me,
that no two old rugs, even from the

The Reason Camp Meeting John Allen
Got Maine Central Pass.

The Reason Camp Meeting John Allen
Got a Maine Central Pass.
Camp Meeting John Allen was one
his time in Maine. Apropos, of railroad
passes a very interesting story is told.
It occurred when Governor Morrill,
was president Of the Maine Central.
Aliens applications were refused q
number Of times, because If there was
one thing above all others which Nor
rill disliked it was to issue passes. The
governor came down to his Office in a
somewhat brusque frame Of mind that
day. Those familiar with the storm
signals quietly backed off and waited
for an explosion. It came. One of the
first letters opened was from Camp
Meeting John Allen requesting a pass
for "self and wife" The secretary
approached his chief with some hesita-
ton.
''Here is another letter from Mr.. AL
len asking for pass" he said and laid
the missive gingerly on the governor
desk.
The governor read it through and
blaZed away for a few minutes; then,
tossing the letter to the astonished
secretary, he said, "Make it OUT
The young man retired and began to
fill in the various blank lines, but when
he came on what account the pass
was issued he was puzzled and ven
tured to seek information.
son what account, governor?" he
asked
The chief looked irately over his
spectacles.
Account, account? Account of -
persistence. Be sure to put it in, too
and he growled as the young man
passed out, 'These Methodist parsons
may have to get us all passes on the
road to heaven, and want Maine
Central to, have good connections with

SUGAR AS FOOD.
Used With Discrimination, 1t Is an Aid
to Good Health.

Used With Discrimination, 1t Is an Aid
to Good Health.
'"There is a prejudice against sugar
which is not justified by physiological
reasoning" says the London Lancet.
"Sugar is one of the most powerful
foods which we possess, as it is the
cheapest or at any rate one of the
cheapest. In muscular labor no food
appears to be able to give the same
powers of endurance as sugar, and
comparative practical experiments
have shown without the least doubt
that the hard physical worker, the
athlete or the soldier on the march is
much more equal to the physical strain
placed upon him when he has had in
Guided in his diet a liberal allowance
Of sugar than when sugar is denied to
him.
TROPHIES, prizes and cups have I'M
doubtedly been won on a diet in which
sugar was Intentionally a notable con-
stituent. 1t has even been said that
sugar may decide a battle and that
jam after all is something more than
mere sweetmeat to the soldier The
fact that sugar is powerful muscle
food accounts probably for the disfa-
| vor into which it falls, for a compare
,, lively small quantity amounts to an
excess. and excess is always inimical
to the easy working of the digestive
processes.
Sugar satiates; it is a concentrated
. food. Where sugar does harm, there
fore, it is invariably due to excess
Taken in small quantities and distrib-
uted over the daily food intakes, sugar
contributes most usefully in health to
the supply of energy required by the
body.
''And it is a curious fact that the
man who practically abstains from
sugar or reduces his diet to one almost
free from carbohydrates in favor of
protein foods, such as meat, often
shows feeble muscular energy and an
indifferent capacity for physical endur-
ance"

Why Silence Refined.

emotion, at last you are safely in my

The object of his touching words and
passionate embrace made no response
but remained cold and silent. Tears
welled into his eyes.

prove my love? Is there no sacrifice
can make for your sweet sake, no
suffering can endure?"

Not only does the wrapper of every

Discovery, the famous medicine for
weak stomach, torpid liver or bilious
ness and all catarrhal diseases wherever
located, have printed upon it, saa PLAIN
English, a full and complete list of all
the ingredients composing it, but a
small book has been compiled from
numerous standard medical works, of
all the different schools of practice,
containing very numerous extracts from
the writings of leading practitioners
of medicine, endorsing IN the strongest
possible terms, each and every ingredi-
ent contained in DR.. Pierce's medi-
cines. One of these little books will be
mailed free to any one sending address
on postal card or by letter, to DR.. R.V.
Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y, and requesting
the same. From this booklet it will be
learned that DR.. Pierce's medicines con-
tain no alcohol, narcotics, mineral
agents or other poisonous or injurious
agents and that they are made from
native, medicinal roots of great value;
also that some of the most valuable in
gradients contained in DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription for weak, nervous,
over-worked, "run-down," nervous and
debilitated women, were employed, long
years ago by the Indians for similar
ailments affecting their squaws. In
fact, one of the most valuable medic
inal plants entering into the compost
ton of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton was known to the Indians as
vSquaw-Weed." Our knowledge of the
uses of not few of our most valuable
native, medicinal plants was gained
from the Indians.
