ERUOYMENT

OF HEALTH !

Paine’s Celery Compound Saves a Well-Known Norfolk County Farmer.

Completely Cured After Four of the

Best

Doctors Had Failed.

Few menin Norfolk County, Ontario, are better or more favorably known than Mr. Joseph Rolston, of Nixon. This gen- tleman, some time ago, was in such an extremely alarming condition of health. that relatives and friends l

were fearful of results, Four skilled physicians did

all for the sick man that could be done, but a cure was bevond their best efforts. Pro videntially Mr. Polston was in luced to give Paine’s Celery Compound a trial, with the result that sickness and were banished, and a valuable life saved to the community. Mr. Rolst.n, who writes for the benefit of suffering men and women, has his statements vouched for by two well.known Methodist ministers, Rev. T. R. Clark, of Delhi, and Rev. D. Wil- liams, of Nixon.

Mr. Rolston says :—

“It gives me great p'easure to add my

dise we

testimony to the ever increasing popular- ity of your preparation known as Paine’s Celery Compound. It is now a year past Ihad asevere attack of nervous prostration caused by chronic dyspepsia, and fora year I could not sleep at night. This condition of sleeplessness brought on delirium. I was attended by four of the best doctors of the country, and took a great quantity of medicine, but all failed to do me any good. Having been per- suaded to read your books I thought I would try your Paine’s Celery Compound ; and after I had used four bottles the ner- yousness and dyspepsia left me, and I have done more work since thas for years pest. I now enjoy excellent health and consider myself completely eured. I have highly recommended vour Paine’s Celery Com- pound to others, and [ know of several persons who are now using it.”

[DINING AT THE ZOO.

A B:|LL OF FARE THAT 1S UNIQUE IN ITS VARIETY.

Among the Animals at the Lendon Zoo-

logical Gardens—An Knormous amount

of Food Consumed Annaally.

I have been initiated into the mys- eries of the kitchéns of a great West Mnd hotel during the preparation of in- numerable toothsome banquets ; I have explored the nethermost corners of the “Ship and Turtle,” and fathomed the depths of turtle soup; but I must say that the kitchens and storehouse of Kooland were new ground to me. For they have both at the Zoo, and very curious end very interesting w the revelations which Mr. Bartlett made to me one afternoon concerning the food consumed in the Zoological Gardens, As I was walking toward the superinten- dent’s house I noticed a bowed figure a few yards before me. It was that of a man past middle age, his face tanned yellow, and his hair grizzled by wind and sun. The man carried a pack on his back, but it seemed scarcely to im- pede his progress, for he went along at a rapid shamble and it was with diffi-

sre

culty that I kept pace with him. He and ™ both made for the office, and then I found that on the top of his

back was a box full of mice, while the sack itself was filled with dozens of frogs.

Thousands of frogs must be consum-

ed in the Zoo durtng the year. The snakes and the salamanders like no- thing better, and really you may sup-

press that hypersensitive shudder. The frogs are fresh and tender, and prob- ably much more toothsome than many a dainty which chefs rave of. In the winter*months a store of frogs may be seen in the reservoirs of the Zoo, wait- ing their time, and consuming in their turn vast quantities of worms. These frogs cost sixpence a dozen. All sorts and conditions of vendors find their way to this little office. Boys bring for sale their rabbits pigeons, and guinea-pigs. The rat-catcher brings up rats and mice; the butcher, the baker, the fishmonger, and the greengrocer also pay their daily calls ; and I must not forget the milk- man. There are some three thousand living creatures in the gardens, each of whom has a palate of the greatest deli- cacy. It may be a choice mutton chop for an ape, or a parrot, strawberries or a pineapple for a chimpanzee. Poor Sal- ly was such a gourmet. Individual fan- cies must be gratified in such a valu- able collection. If a lion is a little “off color,” as they say, he likes nothing bet- ter than a rabbit with the fur on. It is as if you or 1 might fancy an oyster and a glass of Chablis after a late night.

Of eggs, 17,000 are consumed in a year Some of them go to the reptile-house, but most of them are boiled and chopped up fine, as the cookery book say. In this state they form part of the break- fasts and dinners of a multitude of birds and monkeys. Fresh shrimps, which form another item, are given to certain birds, and the gulls and flamin- goes are extremely fond of them. As for the fowls’ heads, they go to such animals as the otter and the polecat, whilé the nuts, of course, go to the mon- keys and squirrels.

In a day an elephant will eat about 224 pounds of food. Knowing this, you will have no difficulty in understand- ing where those huge quantities of dry- stuffs disappear. This mighty meal in- cludes rice, biscuit, hay, clover, and a mangel-wurzel or two. The hippopota- mus takes about the same weight of food, which includes vast quantities of green grass. The rhinoceros also takes green food, hay and so on. The polar bear takes flounders and cooked meat with much fat. The seals eat most of the whiting, while the cormorants, fla- mingoes, and pelicans take the rough fish. The bears eat meat and biscuits, the army of deer and cattle of all sorts are responsible for a large consump- tion of drystuffs. Bread and milk— the pleasant compound we all know— is given to monkeys and to other for- tunate animals who possess Celicate stomachs. The lions and tigers are also fond of a drink of milk. The ro- dents take most of the carrots.

Many favorite horses end their days in the Zoo. An aged carriage horse, a hack who has done his work, an ani- mal that is incurably vicious, a violent animal that has thrown his master or his mistress—these find their way to the Gardens. It is better that they should die an easy death than linger on in the shafts of a hansom until they drop in the streets beaten and hungry. The lions and the tigers and leopards, whose allowance varies from ten pounds to six pounds a day, consume, on an average, one horse a day the year round, This demand exceeds the supply of gift-horses, so the society buys from the knacker a dead horse, costing from 25s. to £3, this latter being the price of Before passing on to the reptile house. I may mention that the owls and hawks like nothing better than dead birds or dead rats, or even a dead cat, fur and all.

You will notice that no mention is made of the frogs, ducks, rabbits, gui-

a carthorse.

nea-pigs, rats, and mice, which find their way into the reptile house. Nor, indeed, of the cockroaches, of which

there is an ample supply in the Gardens. Nor again of powdered oyster shells, which the ostrich loves, These may be called the “extras,” but, like most “ex- tras,” they mount up to a considerable total in the bills. One is on delicate ground in dealing with the live food. Years ago there was an absurd outcry by sham humanitarians against the practice of giving live food to the snakes. But as snakes prefer to slaugh- ter their own food or starve, the ques- tion resolved itself into one of Zoos, or no Zoos. The Zoos carried the day, but by a blessed compromise the public are no longer allowed to be present at these banquets. Mr. Bartlett, the wisest ot practical zoologists, who has passed years of hours in the reptile house, says that the theory that snakes fascinate their food is all nonsense. The guinea- pigs and geese are as happy in the snakes’ cages as in their own hunting- grounds. The rattlesnake feels hungry, say ; he sees them ; he uncoils himself ; ne poises his head, and the guinea-pig is paralysed in a few seconds, dying a painless death. The python crushes his ducks with terrible certainty, which is quite as agreeable to the duck as having his neck wyung, I'm sure, Some years ago there was a cage full of spiders in the insect-house. One day a live cock- roach was dropped in. The spider smell- ed him ; the cockroach was surrounded by his savage foes, and made mincemeat

FORMATION OF COAL.

fn > ome Places the Complete and Perfect Form of the Deeaye! Trees Have Been Found. The

Dr.

formation of coal, according to Homer Greene’s cosmical theory, was due to the solar orb bringing forth, millions of years ago, when it was larger and hotter than to-day, a wonderfully luxuriant vegetation, including plants of strange kinds, mosses as large as forest trees, and ferns 20 feet in height, grow- ing up richly from the clayey soil and forming dense jungles in the vast marshes, the latter covering great areas of the earth’s surface: these ferns mosses, and the leaves, branches, and trunks of trees in time falling and de- caying where they grew. only to render the soil more fertile and the next growth more luxuriant—year after year, century after century, this process of g:owth and decay going on, until the beds of veget- able matter thus deposited became of great thickness ; the earth’s body, how- ever still continued to shrink, in con sequence of which her crust at time: contracted and fell in, the land ther sinking through vast areas, the beds of vegetable matter going down and the water sweeping again over the great marshes, sand and mud and gravel were laid down anew over the deposits, anc the clayey soil from which the next ric} growth would spring was spread out on the surface, this process being repeated again and again, as often, indeed, as seams of of coal in any coal bed.

In this way, according to Dr. Greene the conditions for the formation of coal were made complete, atmospheric al: being entirely excluded while the veget- able beds underwent the processes of decomposition, so that in some beds of coal whole trees have been found, wit! roots, branches, leaves and seeds com plete, and all converted into the sam: kind of coal as that by which they wer< surrounded.

HOW TO WALK.

The Proper Length of a Step Twice th. Lengih o. the Feot.

A Delsarte teacher, who is peculiar in knowing something of Delsarte’s sy-- tem of expression. says that women can improve their walk without’a teacher, though they can’t learn about waiking from print. The proper length of the step is twice the length of one foot. and it is measured from the hollow of on foot to the hellow of the other. Now take a piece of tape, and sew on it bits ef flannel at intervals twice the length of one of your feet, stretch it across the longest room you have at your disposai and you are ready for practice. Maybe you don’t know that each foot should cross the same line with each successive step ? It should—that is very import- ant. so now you must walk your tape and set one foot and then the other right over one of those bits of flanne!} letting the flannel come just under the instep. Do this and turn your toes out well, and swing your leg from the thigh, and you are far on the road to a beautiful walk.

Current Literatare.

The newspaper, people say, and the magazine are coming to monopolize the attention of reading men and women dissipating their minds, frittering away their care for books and all sustained intellectual effort, bringing on gradu- ally a sort of softening of the generai brain, which makes the serious book 4 bogey and impossible thing. Our busy, feverish, overstrained generation, they say, is sliding from the book to the magazine and reviev, from the review to the review of reviews, to the news- paper, to the headlines in the news paper, where the popular pressure al- ready centres. The evils of the news- paper and of much of our newspaper readings are undeniable and very great —have we not preached much about them, and are we not ready to preaco much more ? If we think well of the magazine—our own and some others— as in all decency and honor we are bound to do, we should be the loudest to lament if we believed that it were bury- ing the book. But we do not believe it. While men a hundred times had better be reading books when they are read- ing newspapers and magazine, while a hundred times, in reading these, they are wasting time, and worse, and had better be whittling, we believe that a hundred times as often they are get- ting good, giving hours to real educa tion—not the best but still real educa- tion—which the man of their rank and in their place a hundred years would have given to whittling and not and we believe, which is the

Tired but Sleepless

Is a condition which gradually wears away the strength. Let the blood be purified and enriched by Hood’s Sar- saparilla and this condition will cease. “For two or three years I was subject to poor spells. I always felt tired, could not sleep at night and the little I eould eat did not dome any good. I read about Hood’s Sarsaparilla and decided to try ‘t. Before I had finished two bottles I began to feel better and in a short time I felt all right and had gained 21 pounds !n weight. Iam stronger end healthier than Ihave ever been in my life.” Joun W. CovGsLrn, Wallaceburg, Ontario.

Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is the Only True Blood Purifier
