Ayer's Sarsaparilla does what no
other blood medicine in existence can
do. It searches out all impurities in the
system and expels them harmlessly
through the proper channels. This is
why Ayer's Sarsaparilla is so pre
eminently effective as a remedy for
rheumatism.
There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local rem
edies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it in
curable. Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional . treatment.
Hall's Catarrh, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure in the market. It is
taken internally in dosea from 10 drops
to a teaspoon ful. It acts directly on the
blootTand mucous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials. Address.

THE NEWFOUNDLAND DOG.
Be Is the Noblest Kpecles ot the Whole
Canine Race. ,
The Newfoundland dog1 takes his
name from the island where he is sup
posed to have originated. Many, how
ever, believe that the Norsemen, who
discovered America in the year 1000, in
troduced this dog- in Newfoundland.
He is bv some classified among the
wolf-dogs, while others, on account of
his large pendulous ears, say that he
should not belong1 to this family, but
that he and the St. Bernards should.
occupy a place by themselves.
The Newfoundland, says Harper s
Young People, since his introduction
in England, has improved in appear
ance, and is now larger and heavier.
In Newfoundland and Labrador these
dogs are used as beasts of burden,
drawing considerable loads of wood
and provisions on sledges. Their feet
are partially webbed, and therefore
they are most excellent water dogs.
The scent is not strong, and as the dog
is slow and clumsy, he is not valuable
to the hunter, except as a retriever
when speed is not required.
In the island of Newfoundland this
dog is almost totally black, but . the
English varieties are usually black and
white. As a"watch-dog the Newfound
land is only second to the mastiff. He
is amiable to children and small dogs.
Kept in confinement he often gets cross
and ill-tempered, and flies at those for
whom he has previously shown the
greatest regard.
Where a dog cannot be allowed to
run, and must be chained up, the New
foundland should not be kept. This
dog is a great life-saver, and by in
stinct will jump into the water to save
even an enemy from drowning.
THE VAMPIRE BAT.
A Dread Creature That Is Common In
India.
I have always despised bats, said a
Cleveland man recently, and it always
sends a shudder over me whenever one
of the hideous creatures approaches
me. The bats of this country, how
ever, are not to be dreaded in compar
ison to those of the vampire species
which abound in India. Just imagine
a big- mouse with a horn on his head
like a rhinocerous, furnish him with a
pair of demon-like wings, and you have
a very good picture of this latter kind.
The natives dread the vampire bat on
account of his bloodsucking propensi
ty. In the sultry nights he fans the
heated sleeper with his wings while
his needle-like teeth are being in
serted into the veins of his victim,
quenching . his thirst for blood with
such gentleness that it is only by some
fortunate chance that he is discovered
before the mischief is done. It is a
well-authenticated fact that if an indi
vidual is ones bled by a vampire he is
invariably chosen, in preference to all
others equally exposed for a subseqent
attack, and even if he were to move
ten or twenty milos away, no im
munity is gained thereby, as the bat is
sure to follow him and keep up his
blood-thirsty attack until his victim
succumbs or the animal is discovered
and killed. Cattle and horses, from
being more exposed, are more frequent
ly chosen as the subjects of attack by
these loathsome creatures.
UNAPPRECIATED BANANAS.
Some Superstitions About Haddocks and
Fcra Roots.
The banana possesses wonderful sus
taining properties, and yet years ago,
in the warm countries where it flour
ibhes, the banana was thought of so
lightly that it was allowed to waste if
not eaten by the cattle.
The plant itself was valued simply as
a shade for coffee trees, between rows
of which it was planted.
Somebody once told me, says a writer
in the Gentlewoman, that the Span
iards used to regard the banana as a
forbidden fruit, because they detected
in its heart the transverse section of
the cross.
I remember, too, how one of my early
governesses used to delight me by
showing me the cross and the apostles
in the center of the passion flower; and
the other day a friend told me of some
curious symbolical marks to be found
at the back of the neck of the haddock,
indentations similar to those that
might be caused by the finger and
thumb, the supposition being that the
haddock was one of the fishes picked
out of the net on the occasion of the
miraeulous draft of fishes.
CHAMPIONS IN THEIR LINE.
Absent-Blinded People Who Were Simply
Wonders.
They are telling a story of a Dutch
man who presented himself at the reir-
istar's office recently to obtain a license
for his approaching marriage, and who.
on being asked the name of the bride,
was compelled to confess that it had
quite escaped him, and he had to re
turn home for the necessary informa
tion. It's a pretty good story of ab
sence of mind, but there are others on
record that are even better. There
have been cases where persons have
even forgotten their own names.
Lessing, the historian, was subject
to the most wonderful fits of abstrac
tion. One night, returning home late,
he rang the front door bell, and when
a servant called out from an upper win
dow that the professor was not at
home, he said: "All right, I'll come
again," and walked away.
There was an English clergyman,
Rev. George Harvest, who was engaged
to a daughter of the bishop of London,
,but on the day of, his wedding went
fishing, and forgetful of the appointed
hour did not appear at the nuptials.
The lady broke off the match. -
