He Kept His Leg.
Twelve years ago J. W. Sullivan, of Hatt
ford, Conn., scratched his leg with a rusty
wire. Inflarnniation and, blood poisoning
set in. For two years he suffered intensely.
Then the best doctors urged amputation,
" but," he writes, " I used one bottle of
Electric Bitters and 11, boxes of Bucklen's
Arnica Salve. and mv leg was sound and
well as ever." For Eruption', Eczema, Tet-
ter, Salt Rheum, Sores and all blood die -

Uncle Harris was a carpenter, and had a
shop in the country. One day he went into
the barn, where Dick and Joe were playing
with two tame pigeons.
Boys," said he, " my workshop ought
to be swept up every evening. Which of
you will undertike it ? I em willing to pay
a cent for eeeh sweeping."
" Only a cent ?" said Dick. " Who would
work for a cent ?"
" I will," said Joe. " A cent is better
than nothing,"
So every day, when Uncle Harris was
done working in the shop,' joe would take
the old broom and weep it. And he drop-
ped all his pennies in his tin' savings bank,
one day Yncle Harris took Dick and Joe to
town with him. While he went to buy
some lumber they went into a store where
, there were toys of every kind.
" What a tine kite ?' said Dick. " I wish
I could bay one."
" Only ton cents," said the salesman.
I haven't even a cent," said Dick,
_ " I have fifty Cents," said Joe ; " and I
think I will buy that bird kite."
" How did you get thet fifty cents," ask-
ed Dick.
" By sweeping the shop," answered Joe.
" I saved my pennies, and did not open my
bank until this morning." Joe bought the
kite and a fine large kuite, while Dick went
home without anything.

In great dietrees a boy toolohis pet cat to
the London Hospieal the other evening,
stating that it had swallowed a needle.
Could nob something be done to save its
life, ? he asked in pathetic tones.

He took the cat to the operating room,
administered chloroform, and then suceess-

Educating an Ant.
REM A A BLE FEAT Ace° m PUSHED M. A
1,• AT i` RA LIST.
Taming an ant would seem to be an al.
meet impossible feat, says the New York-
Heralde but it has lately been accomplished
by the Jesuit father Waemann, who is, after
the Englieh Naturalist, Lubbock, the man
who knows mod about these interesting
insects
Wasmann keeps many different tribes of
ants in artificial nests. To these is connect-
ed a feeding tube, terminating in a glass
bulb closed by a cork. Into this tube, he
remarked, one of the insects came regular-
ly. It wee easy to recognize it to be al-
ways the same, as it was particularly small
and. otherwiee different ftom its companions.
The creature licked up the honey _or auger
placed in the bulb, and, having gathered a
supply, returned to share it 'with his aom-
penions in the nest.
Wasimisnn then removed the cork, upon
which the in ect came out and sought
around for foo . He then approached 1b
with the point of a needle dipped in honey.
The ant at firs Shrank back, as if frighten-
ed ; then gra ually drew nearer, feeling
about with its antenae, till at last it came
up to the need e and licked off the honey.
Later he acme omed it to take the honey
directly from he tip of his finger, a sur-
prising fact w en we remember that the
least unusual dor or the slightest move-
ment outside their nests is either repulsive
or terrifying t ants and drives them either
to Sight or to demonstrations of disgust.
VVasmann sue eeded in taming the insect, so
campletely th t at last it quitted the bulb
immediately t e Cork was removed, came in
quest ofithe h ney on his finger, and at the
conclusion of he repast, without any at-
tempt at reale ance or flight, allowed itself
to be lifted.

Treating.
Several years ago a gentleman of my ao-
qaaintance fell into the habit of using in-
toxicants until he seldom passed a day
without some symptoms of drunkenness.
He sometimes came home to his family in a
state of beastly intoxication. Under their
piteous appeals he consented to go to au
inebriate asylum, and after a few months of
treatment he came back apparently re-
formed. Sunshine again filled the house
that had long been shadowed with ehame
and sorrow. He continued sober for sev-
eral months, but one day an old friend met
him in New York, greeted him cordially;
and invited -him to go into a down town
restaurant and take a social gimes with him.
-Under a sudden impulse he yielded, iknd
that one glass aroused the latent appetite ;
the chained tiger was loosed again and my
poor friend went home that night pitiably
and disgracefully drunk ! During the
brief remainder of his life he was a wreck.
That whole wretched tragedy of a ruined
life was the result of a single act, which
goes under the deceitful name of treating.'
That friend who offered the ensnaring glass
proved to be a deadly enemy ! Grant that
he had no intention to work a fatal mis-
chief ; grant that he had no thought of
doing a serious harm. He did ie, hOwever,
as surely as if he had been actuated by a
fiendieh malice.
For evil is wrought by want of thought,
As well as by want of heart.'
—By Theodore L. Cuyler, D. D.

Woodstock's Danger.
A despatch from Woodstock, dated
March 27th, selys :
Since the snow has lett, the .people of
this city have had a chance to get an idea
of how much of tbe dynamite spilled in the
railroad wreck at the Grand Trunk Railway
station on February 16 was scatteredaround
town. Daniel Miller feund eight whole
sticks of it in his- front yard. Someone had
thrown it over,. the fence. Yesterday a pile
of dynamite aticks was found just, east of
the town, on ; the Grand Trunk Railway
track. A lot of burnt matches lying
around' showed that somebody had been
trying to explede it. When a freight train
pulled into the Grand Trunk Railway
station last night there was a loud explosion
under the engine, which made everybody
around strike for the open. It is suppoied
that a little lump of dynamite exploded.
Now that warm weather is near at hand
real danger is threatened. Four tons of the
dynamite on board the dynamite train was
found to be missing when the remains of
the wreck were gathered up. Not more
than half of that has been gourd.

My Mistake.
A curate up north, says rumor, has fur-
nished another example of the pseudo apol-
ogy at his own expense. Having preached
a very clever Hermon on the Sunday he
called upon a certain colonel on the Monday
especially to aek his opiniOn.
" How did I like the sermon ?" Said the
colonel. " Very much indeed. it's one of
my favoritee.1
" Oae ot yoar favoritee !" stammered the
curate, lightli puzzled. " I do not under-
stand,"
The c lonel regarded him with a twinkle
at the b ck o his eyes. " Of- pours°
won't ea a w rd," he said, "Ibut I know
very we 1 that you etole it, and alao where
you stol it fr m."
" Sir " sai the curate,' and he spoke

dignatio " am not in the habit, sir, of
stealing y se mons. I fear you are labor-
ing und r a iietake and—er—forgetting
yourself. I rm. st ask you to apologizo"
The colonel asailent for a moment, then
he said : " It may be that I. have made a
mistake. Wai a moment, I will make
sure."
o his ook case he took down a
massive tome o sermons—a rare and almoat
forgotten work, He, turned to a certain
page and ap logetic, humble look came

There is uch said and written about
the appallin number of persons who drink.
Yet two or hree times as many usn tobac-
co. While ore money is spent for drink,
it must be r membered that, relatively con-
sidered, tob coo is much cheaper than al-
coholic liqu re. A glass of beer coats as
much as ma y smokes or ahem, and a glass
of whiskeyr brandy or wine as much as a
dozen Cigarettes or a whole plug or bag of
tobacco.
Our ann al consumption of alcoholic
liquors is o er one billion gallons, or about
16 gallons each man, wnman and child.
The most of this is lager beer—containing
about four o five per cent of alcohol, the
remainder b ing wine—:containing from ten
to twe ty p r cent. of alcohol ; whiskey,
brand and ther liquors, containing about
fifty p r con . of alcohol. The total amount
of pur alco ol annually consumed in our
land ie less than 100,000,000 gallons, or
about five q arts for each individual.
Our nunu 1 tobacco crop is nearly 500,-
000,000 pou de. This is over five pounds
for evefry in n, woman and child. From 1
this is made over three billion cigarettes,
over four bi lion cigars, about 100,000,000
pounds of e oking and nearly 200,000,000
pounde of cl ewing tobacco. According to
a fair 'calm ation, to consume our annual
tobacce oro it requirea that no less than 12
million boy and men smoke or chew
three hours aily.—J. A. Conwell Ameri.

Rev. Dr. amen Robertion, euperintend-

on the other side of the Atlantic, and this
is taken fro the report het made upon his
return to T ronto : !
" The ere t curse of Scotland, Dr. Rob-

serioue indu trial drawbale, It, .as it caused

Re , E. . Hardy, in Chicago Times.
Heral : At what age shohld a man marry?
That epend upon the Man. Some men
are m re fit ed for the responsibilities of
matrimony a 25 than othe s are at 35, If
marriage, ho ever, be post oned after this
lase f gure a man is likely to get into what
may Azle call d the habit 6f celibacy, from
which, as fro other bad habits, it is hard
to break awa . In this habit of celibacy he
will continue till he is about 60 years of age,
when a gre t desire will Come over him to
try what mat imony is like. just before he
dies, and he will propose right and left to
everything in petticoats, until -at last he is
picked up n t for himself, but for his
money or fo his position, or becauae some
one is tired of being called " Miss " and
wants the no el sensation of writing " Mrs."
before her na e. An old man told a friend
that he want d to marry before he died if
only to hav some one to close his eyes.
" Perhaps," uggested the friend, " you
will get some one who will open them." It
is not natur 1 for a younk girl to wish to
merry an old man. A father said to his
daughter : ' Now, when iti, is time for you
