Seizing the Imperined girl about tho

and was in the att of bearing her
away when the floundering horse
turned his been around, dr:wee:ate
tem octopus, so near that it lashed
againeet his body and caused laui to
stumble. Regaining an attitude of
defence, he found that an arm of the
persistent dovil fish was fastened
about the screaming girl's ankle. His
knife happened to be a good one, and
a single forceful blow s-uilleed to sev-
er the repulsive member of the mon-
mar's body. Other arms-. vibrating
with rage like the tongues of rna,d

kiss of several of its terrible wea-
pons. When the boat touched the

The horse shook the stieners*loos,e

GAVE TIIE GAME AWAY.
A certain regiment in India was
about to be inspected by a certain
general just out from England, who
was very particular that the cap-
tain of each regiment should know
the name of every man in his com-
pany, and also where he came from.
Now it happened that the captain of
this particular regiment had just
returned from twelve months' leave,
and during his absence many changes
had occurred. On the morning of
the inspection the captain addressed
his company as follows :—
"Now, men, the general is par-
ticular that I should know every
man's name, and also to whet
county he belongs. Now, there are
many here who are strangers to me,
so whatever I say your names are,
or where you belong to, mind you
don't contradict it."
The general at length arrived, and
as be passed, down the lines he
stopped before a man and said to
the captain :--
"This is a smart -looking soldier.
What is his nanie ?"
"Brown, sir," replied the eoptain.
"Where does he come from ?" ,
"Wiltshire, sir."
The general passed nin, and soon
stopped before another man.
"What's this man's name ?"
"Jones, sir."
"Where does he come from ?"
"Devon, sir,"
"Ah, I'ra a Devonshire man my-
self. Fine county, is Devon, is it
not, Private Jones ?" said the gen-
eral.
Private Jones looked startled for
monaent, and then, in a broad
Irish brogue, replied :—
'Bedad, an' there ain't a foine
eounthry in the world, yer 'comer."

Dow the Rash Celtics.
In measles a rash nppears on the
fourth day of the fever. It Is first seen
on the forehead. face ttnd neck, after-
ward over tbe whole body. It consists
of raised red spots. In scarlet fever
the rash appears on tbe second day of
the fever, commencing on tbe upper
part of the chest and neck, whence it
spreads over the body. In smallpox an
eruption is seen on the third or fourth
day on the face, neck and wrists. In
chicken pox the eruption is made of
mall blebs. In typhoid fever the rash
rarely shows Itself before the seventh
day of the fever. The spots are rose
colored, and they disappear on pressure.
lIenty's Young Critic..
G. A. Henty, the writer for youth.
frequently got letters from admirers
all over the world asking for his auto-
graph and offering criticisms of his
books. In a story of the peninsular
war he made two boys disguise them-
selves by stnining their faces with
Iodine. Shortly after the book was
published he received a letter from a
boy, who saidhe was a ehenalers as-
sistant, stating that while that special
incident was represented as taking
place in 1808 iodine was not discovered
until 1811, three years after.
An Intelligent Dog.
A. gentleman once had a very hand-
some and intelligent collie ID his pos-
session. One day he lost the dog when
taking It through the city. The crea-
ture In vain searched everywhere for
his master and at last, seeing a bansom
cab creeping leisurely along, jumped
into it and settled himself determined-
ly on the seat. The driver tried to en-
tice it out, but without success, and a
little' crowd collected. None dared to
tackle the dog, but at last a facetious
'Spectator sheeted out, "I, say, Bill,
darn me if be don't want to be druv
home." "That's tO; that's what he
wants," they all agreed araill shouts of
'laughter. Then one examined his col-
lar and found an address clearly en-
graved upon it. Without turner ado
cabby jumped up and drove up to this
taaine addreu, which proved to be the
coned one. Needless to say, the cab-
man was substantially rewarded. The
dog had been in the habit of driving
home every evening with his Master in
a hansom and; with doggie reasoning,
had decided to'follow his usual custom
when he had given up hope of finding
his Master.—London Opinion.
