dollars on a. plantation of II. 900 acres

An Unexpected Charge That Resulted
 In Rout and Humiliation.
 There have been many curious bits of strategy in warfare, but none more effective than the coup of the Tercei- ranS when threatened by the Span iardS
 Early in the morning of the 25th day of July. 15S1. the inhabitants of the village of St. Sebastian, Isle of Ter group, were alarmed at the sight of q squadron. consisting of seven large Spanish war galleOns, anchored off the little bay at Salga, the operations for landing hostile force being actually in progress.
 Hastily summOning some companies of militia and collecting behind a neighboring knoll a large herd of semi wild cattle from the neigh5Oring pas, tures the islanders quietly awaited the maSsing of the Spaniards on the beach.
 When this had been accomplished. the 'Terceirans advanced close up to the fOe as if to the attack, when, sud denly opening out into two long col umnS and leaving a wide, open space between. the numerous cattle were sent laundering down the center, gOad ed on by picadOrs on horseback. So un usual and unexpected a charge threw the Spaniards into complete disorder. and. being at once set upon by the is AxrA ships, several guns which had been landed falling as spoil to the conquer Ors.-EXchange.

DIDN'T TAKE THE HOLE.
But That Was Probably Because the
 Court Said They shouIdnt.

But | hat was FropapIy Because the
 Court Said They ShouIdn't.
 An amusing instance of legal sharp practice is set forth in the annals of Westerly, k. I. It occurred a hundred years ago, when, it seems, lawyers were quite as adroit at quibbling as certain of their successors are today.
 A farmer of broken fortunes hired for cultivation a piece of land, agree ing to pay for the use thereof with a certain proportion of the crop. He planted potatoes and had an unusual degree of success. Being without a storeroom. he obtained the consent of a neighboring landholder and deposited his share of the potatoes ill what farm CTS call d potato hOle-that is, an ex- cavation in the earth in which the DO tatOeS are placed and covered with earth and straw ill the form of d Dyra- mid.
 Shortly afterward he had occasion to go to Connecticut, and one of his cred itors seized the opportunity to attach the potato hole.
 Upon this another creditor bestirTed himself and consulted q lawyer as to what could be done to secure his claim. The attorney was equal to the occasion. He secured the issuing of second writ. by which an attachment was lev. jed upon the potatoes in the potato hole, the documents specifically setting forth that the potato hole should be left upon bo I.,n,1 1x-bnro y-oc fOIIn1
 The warrant was promptly served, and when the first creditor appeared upon the scene he found the potato hole, but not the potatoes.-Case and Comment.

LOSSES IN BATTLE.

Men Called "Missine" Are Not AIways
 Dead or Wounded.
 In accounts of battles one almost in variably reads of the dead, wounded and missing" That the latter are not always among the dead or wounded, nor even among the prisoners taken by the enemy, is shown in this extract from General Horace Porter's Gam paigning With Grant"
 eve learned something at Shiloh about the way in which reports of losses are sometimes exaggerated ln battle. At the close of the first days fight Sherman met a colonel of one of his regiments with only about hun dred of his soldiers in ranks and said to him. why, where are your menF
 '1The colonel cast his eyes sadly along the line, wiped a tear from his cheek and replied in a whimpering voice, We went in 800 strong and that's all that's left of us.'
 "'You don't tell me! exclaimed Sher- man, beginning to be deeply affected by the fearful carnage.
 "Yes,' said the colonel, the rebs appeared to have a special spite against us.'
 Sherman passed along some hours afterward when the commissary was issuing rations and found the colonels men returning on the run from under the bank of the river, where they had taken shelter from the firing, and in a few minutes nearly all of the lost 700 had rejoined and were boiling coffee and eating hearty meal with an ap- petite that showed they were still very much alive"

fore 1t Is Too Late.
 Marriage, from any puint of view, is of course serious proposition. as 1t may bless or wreck two human lives. if not more. Not the least important of these points of view iS that of the health of both parties to the contract. The health commissioner of Pennsyl- gania in all official bulletin gives the following advice to those about to marry:
 "First, man should not marry un- less into family with a history of reasonable longevity. free from hered- itary disease. He should not marry woman advanced in life, delicate, feeble or afflicted with any inherited deformity. The age most proper for women in this climate is nineteen or twenty years and for men twenty four or twenty five years. Women of d nervous temperament. those who are extremely irritable, hySterical. subject to cUnvulSiOnS or to epilepsy from or ganic diseaSe, ought to avoid matri mony.
 "In this country marriages before the ages of twenty-five and nineteen respectively are cOntraindicated, be cause, as rule. previous to these pc riods of life the body is not fully de veloped. the different functions are not perfect. and any offspring developed by them in their immature condition must be deficient in vital power"

Dogs For Draft Work,

The use of dogs for draft work was prohibited in London in 1889, but re- mained legal in the provinces for an other fifteen years Sir Walter Gil bey. ill his 'RecOllectionS of Seventy Years notes as q feature of his boy hood at Bishop StOrtford the numbers of dog carriages and carts on the Essex lanes and highrOads. All sorts and conditions of men used dog car riages, from small tradeSmen to poorer people who could not afford a pony. Dog draft was abolished because certain people agitated against it as cruel, but I think that generally the dogs were neither ill treated nor over- worked. There are probably many peo- le living who can remember when the t lgging propensity of the dog was utilized ill England. Workingmen had their 'dogcarts,' in which they made Sunday and holiday excursions. The dogs employed were, as rule. heavy half bred bull mastiffs with a touch o1 the lurcher in them. They thought nothing of drawing their masters fifty or sixty miles in a day."-London Sphere g.

"CAMEL's HAIR" BRUSHES.
The Very Best of Them Are Made From
 Squirrels Tails.

0NOIIICIS 0uS'
 It may sound rather strange, but it is nevertheless true that no brushes are ever made of camels hair, yet they are asked for daily and sold as such
 There are very many kinds of hair used in the making of "camel's hair brushes. such as bear, fox. rabbit. squirrel, etc. and, indeed. one au- thOrity states that over l5O sorts of brushes are known as "cameHS hair" brushes, but there is only one detini tion accepted by the British board of tradpi. i. e.. "camel's hair" brushes made from squirrel tails. these being the best and most expensive.
 Real camel's haIr is absolutely use less for making brushes and resembles soft tow of yellow brownish color. The mane Of a camel is the only part which could be used. and possibly d dozen brushes could be made from one maine.
 As matter of fact, there are only two specimens of brushes made from the actual hair of camel in existence The reason for the term ''came's hair S the fact that man named Camel was the first one to make these finer kinds of. brushes, and they became generally known as real camels hair brushes. ."-LOndOn Answers.

BABYLON AND NINEVEH.
The Incident That Led Sir Henry La
 yard to Explore Their Ruins.

The Incident That Led Sir Henry La
 yard to Explore Their Ruins.
 The first man to undertake. extensive and important explorations among the ruins of Babylon and Nineveh was Sir Henry Layard. It was due to his friendship for a young man who had a great fear of seasicknQSs that he was led to begin what was to be his life work. Layard was educated in the law and started for Ceylon to practice his profession.
 He was accompanied by another lad, who had horror of the ocean, and Layard readily agreed when his com panion suggested that they make the trip by land across Europe, Asia Mi nor, Persia and India. It was while on this journey that Layard was in spired with the ambition to delve among the ruins of the ancient cities of Asia.
 "When 1 first beheld the mounds of Nineveh," he wrote, "a great longing came over me to learn what was hid den within them.'
 He yielded to the desire and largely at his own expense carried on these ex- cavations at Babylon and Nineveh, which were chiefly responsible for the discovery of the lost records and relics of a people who lived 5000 years ago. Many cities and palaces; including the palace of King Nebuchadnezzar, were unearthed by Layard, and the most valuable treasures in the British nlu- scum serve to commemorate his name and fame.-Milwaukee Sentinel.

The Test of Art.

Where the weakness of the artistic life really lies is that it is often not taken up out of mere communicative ness and happy excitement, as child tells q breathless tale, but as a devic" for attracting the notice and earning the applause of the world. and then it is on q par with all other self regard ing activities. But if it is taken up with a desire to give rather than to receive as an irrepressible sharing of delight it becomes not solemn and dignified affair, but just one of the most beautiful and uncalculating i'm pulses in the wOrld.-A. c.

Do You Suffer From rirod Ex..q


 If you suffer from tired eyes-and who does not at times ?-you may be glad to try a French authors acciden- tally discovered remedy. It is simple method of restoring the vision to fresh ness. One night when engaged in writing an article his eyes gave out before he could finish and he was compelled to stop. So, turning from his unfinished manuscript, his eyes fell upon some scraps of colored silk that his wife had been using for patchwork. These gay colors had q peculiar attraction for wearied optics. On resuming his work after gazing at them for several minutes he found them quite fresh. After several ex periments he surrounded his inkstand with brilliantly colored striped silk ma terial that his eyes must rest on every time he dips his pen into the ink. This brings instant relief.

There is scarcely q ruin in. aBabylenid which does. not show traces of his worksr E Nearly everywhere in Mesopo tamia .andl7 even in Persia are found bricks bearing his name.
