Wy x e £ y i THE CROCODILE. A Few of His Peculiar Ways of Trane acting Business. There is little in the animal kingdom saat can look so dead and be so much alive as a crocodile. The number of unsuspect- ing persons who have mistaken him for a log and have failed to discover their mis- take until it was too late to be of any be fit to them will never be known. In ancient times, several years prior to the British occupation of Kgypt, some of the people of that country worshiped the crocodile as a god, there being nothing else like him. ‘They fed him on dainties and togged him out with jewelry. In other parts of hgypt, however, the natives looked upon him asa devil. Having no firearms they did not fill him with lead, but they Mariage d to immolate him successfully With such weapons as were fashionat : the time The crocodile is not so numerous in the Nile as he was in the days of the Ramesvs family. In fact, he rather shuns the river now below the second cataract on ac- count of the annoyances inseparable from tourist traflic. It seems impossible for a tourist to see a crocodile without trying to plug him with a revolver, and toa reptile that is fond of a quiet life this sort of thing is simply insufferable. He will not molest a man unless he can take him ata disadvantage, and so long as man does not unthinkingly step on him, the crocodile will go his own way and calmly await his opyrtunity. He feeds on fish, but for a course dinner he would rather have humanity, black preferred, which shows that there is no ac- counting for taste even among reptiles. His methods of capturing large game «re plural as well as singular. Sometimes he will lie on a river bank, partly covered with sand or mud, until an absentminded native wanders within reach. Haying grabbed his prey, he will waddle into the water and there drown the struggler. He will then drag his victim ashore and bury him in sand or mud and wait for days be- fore he gorges himself.— Pall Mall Gazette. ue- le at HISTORIC QUEBEC. Parts of It Suggestive of Scenes In the Old World. From Quebec a correspondent writes to the Paris Messenger: ‘‘Ici on parle fran- cais’’ might be written on the portals of this quaint and picturesque old city. Strolling in lower Quebec, you might eas- ily fancy yourself in Amiens or Dieppe. In the upper town there is more English, but everywhere an amusing mixture. On the same card you will read, ‘‘Maison a louer,’’ ‘‘ House to let;’’ on one side of the door ‘‘ Pas d'admission sans affaires,’’ and on the other ‘‘Ne admittance except on business.’’ This bilingual necessity causes a little extra painting and printing. Each railway crossing must be marked like- wise, ‘‘Traverse du chemin de fer,’’ and every official ‘‘notice’’ must be printed also in full as an “‘Avis.’’ The blending is often curious, as when two adjoining shops have their announcements one in French and the other in English. Along the Grande Alle, running right across the Plains of Abraham, you might bein Brus- sels or Paris, only that Clifton terrace seems to recall you to Kensington. Amer- ican travelers for whom Europe is too dis- tant are advised to go to Quebec, there to find a bit of the medieval old world trans- planted to the new, but still embalmed in its ancient religious sentimentalism, upon which the rush and roar of modern unrest produce as little effect as the Atlantie breakers on the cliffs of Cape breton. French continues uppermost until you pass Montreal, but from Ottawa and Kingston to the Pacific the legend of the pearly universal tongue is like that of the Paris shopkeepers, who announced “‘ ing- lish and American spoken.’’ In most of the best schools English is taught, and a large number of the people are conversant with both languages, Engjish being indis- pensable for commerce. The Circulation of Water. Scientists are speculating on the canses of some water currents that have been for centuries uninterruptedly flowing into some unknown receptacles far beneath the surface of the earth. These currents are continuous and could not, of course, be merely filling an unoccupied space. ‘That there must be an outlet as well as an inlet is evident from the encermous quantity of water which is perpetually pouring through these openings in the limestone lecges. After exhausting all other theeries it is argued that the inrush of water may be caused by the tremendous volcanic heat in some subterranean cayern, the heated wa- ter flowing out at some point mere or less Gistant. This volcanic and subterranean heating was spoken of some years ago as furnishing a plausible theory as to the causes uf the high temperature of the gulf stream. If, as is generally supposed, the interior of the earth is in a condition of intense heat, the water that flows into fis- sures and crevices in the surface of the earth must come out somewhere either in team or hot water. Hot springs and the gulf stream are perfectly reasonable phe- pomena when viewed from this standpoint. —New York Ledger. [TT Ax Orp Axpd WELL TRiED ReMEDY.— Mis.

Governor Drake of Towa tells a story of a meeting between Lincoln and A. H. Pick- ering of Chicago. Mr. Pickering, who is a Very tall man, Was a resident of Iowa at the time of Lincoln’s election and was en- gaged in shipping cattle. He and Mr. Drake came to Chicago on business, and, hearing that Lincoln was in the city, they sent up their cards and were shown to the president elect's room. ‘*When we got to Liueola’s room,’’ said Governor Drake in his speech, ‘‘he opened the door, and on secing Pickering asked, ‘How tallare you?’ Pickering said, ‘Six feet four.’ ‘Why,’ cried Lincoln, ‘that’s my height. Let's measure. ’ And then the president of the United States and the cattle shipper stood back to back, while the first lady of the land, Mrs. Lincoln, who was a little woman, after standing on tiptoeand reach- ing to the tops of their heads, decided that it was a tie. Ss - Boudoir, The much used word ‘‘boudoir’’ really means a sulkery. Jt is derived from the French verb bouderie, meaning to sulk.

When a crime is committed, no matter in what corner of the earth the criminal tr.es to hide, he knows that probably somewhere or other on the look-out is a detective waiting to lay his hand on him. When any disease at- tacks man- kind and hides _ itself in the hu- man system, no matter how obscure or compli- cated the disease may be, Nature among her great force of detective remedies has one that will eventually hunt dowm and arrest that partic- ular disease. Lung ‘and bronchial diseases are among tie most baffling complaints which <doc- lungs ar bronchial tubes alene which are afected, but every corner of the system furnishes a lurking piace for these elu- sive maladies. They change and reappear and dodge about ¢he system under numberiess dis- guises. They are almost always compli- cated with liver or stomach troubies, nerv- ousness, neuralgia, or *‘ general debility.” he best detective remedy which Na- ture has provided to search out amd arrest these perplexing ailtients is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It lays an ar- resting hand directly upon the poisonous, paralyzing elements hiding in the liver and digestive organs, It wives the blood-making glands power to manufacture an abundant supply of pure, red, highly vitalized blood which reinforces the lungs with healthy tissue; feeds the nerve-centers with power, and builds up solid muscular flesh azd active energy. I’or weak lungs, spitting of blood, short- ness of breath, nasal catarrh, bronchitis, severe coughs, asthma, and kindred af- fections, it is asovereign remedy. While it promptly cures the severest cough it rengthens the system and purifies the blood. “I feel very grateful for the homie-treat- ment given me by the World’s Dispensary Medical Association,’’ writes Mr. T. J. F. Brown, of Sands, Watathga Co., N.C. ‘I had catarrh for several years, then took grip, also had hemorrhage from the lungs. I had the best of medical attention but only to bring partial relief. I got up for a few months but had more hemorrhages. I took Dr.——-—-—-——’s Discovery (twenty-five or thirty bottles) but in a few months I had more spells of bleeding. I wrote to Dr. Pierce and received directions wnat kind of medicine to use; I commenced taking his ‘Golden Medical Discovery’ and Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy. I had only taken one bottle when I could see I was improving. I used three bottles of Dr. Sage'’s Catarrh Remedy, and five bottles of the ‘Discovery.’ I have been able to do any kind of labor for more than twelve months.

His Courtesy to an American Woman on His Visit to Philadelphia, The visit of Lafayette to America as the nation’s guest is graphically recalleé in The Ladies’ Home Journal by Jean Fraley Hallowell, who writes of ‘‘When Lafayette Rede Into Philadelphia.’? The welcome given Lafayette in Philadelphia is said to have exceeded in its warmth and enthusi- asm that extended to the distinguished visitor in any other city. In connection with his riding into Philadelphia the cen- tral figure of a resplendent pageant, an in- teresting incident is thus recalled: ‘La- fuyette’s harouche was passing on Elev- enth street the house where dwelt the widow of Robert Morris, financier of the Revolution, a sister of the revered Bishop White. Mrs. Morris was at her window, and recognizing her after many years La- fayette rose up in his carriage and bowed toher. The rare courtesy was instantly discerned by the thousands congregated at this pgint, and if seemed as if the people would go mad with enthusiasm. ‘The recognition of Mrs. Morris seemed to set them aflame. Even Lafayette ap- peared surprised that the simple act should evoke such a wave of frantic huzzas. Shout after shout rent the air. Women vied with men in their efforts to show te Lafayette that his graceful act teuched them. So great was the furore that the here had to rise again and again in his carriage, and it was scveral minutes be- fore the wonderful enthusiasm had abated. Rat if the applause subsided at the special eoint where it had been wafted into a aaine, if was rekindled again and again and curried along the entire route of the march. Bya simple act he had aroused the peeple, and the fruits ef it remained with him all through his visit im the Quaker City.’’ Fron & BUWARL FISHER Musical Direcior Teronto Conservatory of Music.
