Raleigh, knight and author. You all know the story of his intro- duction to the Queen Elizabeth. She was walking with her. courtiers from the royal barge, when she came to a Place so damp and muddy that she hesitated as to where to step. Raleign immediately threw down his fine emliroidered cloak for her majes- ty's dainty feet to step upon, and from that time, as long as she lived, the' queen gave him her help and her es-. eem. But he was something besides a gal- lant courtier.. He proved himself a braie soldier on laud and sea, in wars in the Netherlands and against the Spanish Armada. In his youth he crossed the Atlantic with his brother, the famous Sir Humphrey Gilbert, and afterward he sent shins out which vi ite our Virginian and.

Sir Walter was charged with trying to place another person on the throne,. tried and sentenced to death, but led, instead, to the prison where he spent twelve long years. , It was then he showed his brave heart as well as on the battle -field, and. he renewed his old studies, planning and beginning the great work, which he never was, to carry out: "The His- tory of the World." But his adventures werenot yet $ver. Nowhere, in all the outside world, could they find the man they wanted, so they came to the. busy scholar in his prison -cell and offered him his liberty if he would only command an expedi- tion to search for gold mines in the far New World. He went, of course, with the old vigor and daring, but gold -mines are not easily, found, and they sailed back without having met with much success. And then what did the strong man do? Did he travel again over far seas, or give his wisdom to affairs of gov- ernment, oreven in his prison finish with ready pen the great volumes he had planned? He died on the scaffold, under the old charge of treason so long proved raise. He met death with the courage of that brave heart which hacl never failed him; leaving behind not only what he wrote, but the story of his Whole brilliant life, so full of -adven- ture and bravery.

So many cases of prostratign- in animals cone to our notice during g the summer months that a word on this sublet may not be; out of p1 ace There are two types •of stroke, ,sun stroke, and heatstroke. Sunstroke in horses is caused by the sun's rays striking the back of the head while the annual pulls a heavy load in the hot sun. It is also caused by leaving the borse standing in the hot sun, after (wavy work. 'It comes on suddenly, the animal collapsing and usually be- coming unconscious. Prevention:—Keep a wet sponge on horse's head or bathe frequently with cold water. Give frequent rests in the shad, when possible. Remember the weather is hot and the horse feels it as much as you do. You lighten your work i..,>I'..the sun as much as possible in the hot weather. Do the same for your horse. Do not hurry or worry him, and help him fight the handicap of hot weather by being easy with him. Treatment:—If the horse collapses, send for a veterinary. In: the mean- time first aid treatment consists of wholesale use of cold water from head to foot. Do not apply a quantity local- ly, but make it wholesale. Keep it up till horse recovers. Heatstroke may come on without animal having been touched by the sun. It is caused by standing in stables, whefz the atmosphere is close, humid and damp. Prevention:—Keep the horse in the yard if stable is very small and close, only in a shady place. Give plenty of water to drink, and use cold water on head. Be sure It has a comfortable place to lie down. A night spent in the atmosphere of a small ill -ventilated stable, reeking of ammonia from lack of cleaning, utterly unfits the animal for work. It is better in the open. Treatment:—Same as. Sunstroke. Dogs and cats and small animals can be dipped in .a tub of water, This is the best restorative. The best remedial agent for hot weather is cold water, internal and external. Keep atub where dogs may dip several times daily. It will pre- vent trouble. His Friend.

I was treated by the doctors for anemia, but it didn't seem to do me any good. I was told to take a rest, but was unable to, and kept on getting worse. I was troubled mostly with my periods. I would sometimes pass three months, and when it came it would last around two weeks, and 'would have such pains at times in my right side that I could hardly walk.
