An Incident Which Carries is Beek to the Indian Mutiny. The recent death of the son of Sir Henry Lawrence, the famous hero of the defence of Lucknow•, carries the attention back to the days of the Sepoy Rebellion. One of the strangest incidents of that terrible time is told by William Forbes Mit- chell in his "Reminiscences of the Great Mutiny." Mr. Mitchell, who was sergeant of a Highland regi- ment, had the misfortune, during a battle, to lose the greatcoat which every soldier carried folded in what was known as a "Crimean roll," and strapped to the shoulders in such a manner that it crossed the breast. Many a man owed his life to the fact that bullets became spent in passing through these rolls. It hap- pened that in the heat of the fight my roll was cut right through where the two ends were fastened together by the stroke of a keen -edged tul- wur which was intended to cut me. As the da vas warm, I was rath- er glad tot rid of it, but by ten o'clock at night there was a differ- ence in temperature, and when I was relieved from patrol duty and wanted to lie down to sleep, I felt the cold, wet grass anything but comfortable, for a kilt is not, the most suitable article of dress on a cold November night in upper India. My company was encamped in and about the tomb of the first king of Oudh. A large enclosure surround- ed the building of the tomb itself, and en rho reside of this were small rooms built for the accommodation of pilgrims. When I entered the en- closure I noticed these compart- ments, and asked permission to sleep in one of them, but was refus- ed. I had to make the best of my position, but was too uncomfort- able to sleep. It. struck ine that some of the Sc - 'nye might have dropped their blankets in their hurried departure. With this hope I went into some of the rooms where a lamp was burn- ing. took it off the shelf, and walked to the door of the great domed mos- que or tomb. I peered into the dark, but could tt_ SAMPLE COPY FREE Would you like to have a sam- ple copy of The Fnrnter'9 Ad- vocate and Home Magazine?

Cold perspiration broke out all over me. 1 had neither cloth nor handkerchief in my pocket with which to extinguish my light, and the next moment might be my last, for the overhanging wick already threatened. to send the smoldering red top to my feet, with conse- quences too dreadful to contem- plate. Quick as thought I put my left hand under the down -dropping flame, and clasping it firmly, slowly turned to the door. Fear so overcame all other sen- sation that I felt no pain of the burn until I was outside; then it was sharp enough. I poured the oil from the lamp into my burned hand. Then I knelt down and thanked God. Next I staggered to Captain Daw- son and told him. He did not be- lieve me, and told me I had waked up from a dream. 1 showed him the powder still sticking on my wet feet. He instantly roused the sleeping men, and quenched every spark of fire on the premises. CARNIVAL DANCING. Among the most picturesque of the carnival festivities of Europe must be classed that of the Gillies, or dancing men, of Binche, in Hain - /tuft. These men, 200 strong, in their remarkable head-dress of tall ostrich feathers, and their lace -decked costume fringed with bells, dance from an appointed place to the town -hall, bombarding the spectators with oranges as they go. Arrived at the town hall, the public joins in the fun, and soon somo 5,000 persons—men, women and children --may be seen gaily waltzing around the Grande Place. ILLS OF CHILDHOOD, HOW TO CURE THEN, In thousands of homes Baby's Own Tablets is the only medicine used when children are ailing, and the mother who keeps this medicine on hand may feel as safe as though there was a doctor constantly in the home. Baby's Own Tablets euro all stomach and bowel troubles, break up colds, expel worms, and make teething easy. The mother has the guarantee of a government analyst that this medicine contains no opiate or poisonous soothing stuff. Mrs. H. II. Bonnyman, Mattall, N.S., says: —"I have uss.I Baby's Own Tab- lets for my little girl while teeth ing and for constipation, and think there is no medicine can equal them."

It has Leen suggested that the big game of Africa should be syste- matically exterminated in order to abolish the "fly fever" by destroy- ing the principal means of nourish- ment of the tsetse. In regard to this suggestion, Sir David Bruce says that while it is true that the tsetse disappears when the big game is killed off, there are other Afriean diseases similar to the fly disease which are not spread by the tsetse. Although "civilization and big ganie cannot exist to- gether," he thinks that the propos- ed wholesale destruction all over Africa would be quite unjustifiable. As the new country is divided off into farms, the big game must go, but the process should be a gradu- al one, applied only as the exigen- cies demand. For at least a thou- sand years to come there ought to be room in Africa for big game re- serves. PILES CURED AT HOME. LIVING WITHOUT A BRAIN. gt Yew Abeeeptt-i Keened.
