HORSE-SHOE ROBINSON A TALE OF THE TORY ASCENDENCY BY JOHN P. KENNEDY CHAPTER LV. THE BEST CURE FOR COLIC IN HORSES. Colic is usually the result of indi gestion, caused by sudden changes of feed, too long fasting, food given when the horse ia exhausted, new hay or grain, or large quantities of green feed. Every horse owner should keep Sloan’s Sure Colic Cure In his sta ble as an insurance against colic, for an attach of colic is liable to come on without warning at any time, and Sloan’s Sure Colic Cure is the safest and best remedy to use. It acts in stantly on the stomach and bowels and can be given by a woman or a child. “I cored a horse with colic that had been treated by a good veterinary sugeon for forty-eight hours,” writes Mr. R. A. Pierce, of Cohutta Springs. Oa. "The horse was about dead and the owner said he would take five cents for him. I gave him three doses of Sloan’s Colic Cure and he was up and eating hay in ten minu tes." —The report we get from oar Na> tore's Cough Remedy and Qrlp Tab lets are very gratifying, being oar own preecrlptlope.

For all the newer edgefr $140 per yt The Whlge Continue Their March.— Mildred ia Left Behind. The army of mountaineers halted at Gilbert-town only until a vidette from William brought tidings of Fer guson’s late movements. These reached Campbell early in the day succeeding his arrival at the village, and apprised him that Williams fol lowed on the footsteps of the British partisan, and would expect to unite his force with that of the allied volun teers at the Cowpens—(a field not yet distinguished in story)—whither he expected to arrive on the follow- in day. Campbell determined, in con sequence, to hasten to this quarter. The present position of Mildred, notwithstanding the kind sympathy with which every one regarded her, was one that wrought severely upon her feelings. She had heretofore en countered the hardships of her jour ney, and borne herself through the trials, so unaccustomed to her sex, with a spirit that had quailed before no obstacle. But now, finding herself In the train of an army just moving forth to meet its enemy, with all the vicissitudes and peril of battle in prospect, it was with a sinking of the heart she had not hitherto known, that she felt herself called upon to choose between the alternative of accompanying them ia their march, or being left behind. To adopt the first resolve, she was painfully con scious would bring her to witness scenes, and perhaps endure priva tions, the very thought of which made her shudder; whilst, to remain at a distance from the theatre of events in which she was so deeply concern ed, was a thought that suggested many anxious fears, not less intoler able than the untried sufferings of the campaign. She had, thus far, braved all dangers for the sake of be ing near to Butler; and now to hesi tate or stay her step, when she had almost reached the very spot of his captivity, and when the fortunes of war might soon throw her into his actual presence, seemed to her like abandoning her duty at the most critical moment of trial. She was aware that he was in the camp of the enemy; that this enemy was likely to be overtaken and brought to com bat; and It was with a magnified terror that she summoned up to her imagination the possible mischances which might befall Arthur Butler in the infliction of some summary act of vengeance provoked by the exas peration of conflict. “I have tempted the dangers of flood and storm for him—of forest and field—noonday battle and midnight assault,” she said, with an earnestness that show ed she had shaken ail doubts from her mind; ‘T have taken my vow of devotion to his safety—to be perform ed with such fidelity as befits the sacred bond between us. I will not blench now. in the last struggle, though perils thicken ailound me. I’m prepared for the worst.” Allen Musgrove, Robinson, and Henry combated this resolve with joint expostulation, urging upon M:.l- dred the propriety of her tarrying in the village, at least until the active operations of the army were termi nated—an event that might be ex pected in a few days. But it was not until Campbell himself remonstrated with her against the indiscretion of her purpose, and promised to afford her the means of repairing to the scene of action at any moment she might think her presence there use ful, that she relinquished her deter mination to accompany the army on Hits ipresent expedition. It was In consequence ultimately arranged that she should remain in the quar ters provided for her in Gilbert- town, attended by the miller and his daughter, whilst a few soldiers were to be detailed as a guard for her per son. Wiith this train of attendants, she was to be left at liberty to draw as near to the centre of events as her considerate and faithful counsel lor, Allen Musgrove, might deem safe. Another source bf uneasiness to her arose out of the separation which she was about to endure from the ser geant and her brother Henry. Horse Shoe, swayed by an irresistible and affectionate longing to be present at the expected passage of arms, which might so materially affect the for tunes of his captive fellow-soldier, Butler, had represented to Mildred the value of the services he might be able to render; and as the friendly solicitude of the miller and his daugh ter left nothing within their power to be supplied, towards the comfort and protection of the lady, she did not refuse her consent to this tem porary desertion—although it natur ally awakened some painful sense of bereavement, at a moment when her excited feelings most required tne consolation of friends. Hen*y, captivated with the pros pect of military adventure, and mag nified in his own esteem by the im portance which Stephen Foster and the Rangers playfully assigned to his position in the ranks, had so far lost sight of the special duty he had as sumed, as his sister’s companion, that he now resolutely rebelled against all attempts to persuade him to re main in the village; and Mildred, at last, upon the pledge of the sergeant to keep the cadet under his own eye, reluctantly yielded to a demand which she found it almost impossible to re sist. These matters being settled, it was not long before Mildred and Mary Musgrove, «eated at the window of the house which had been selected as their present abode, saw the long array of the army glide by at a brisk pace, and watched the careless and laughing faces of the soldiers, as they filed off through the only street in the village, and took the high road leading south. The troops had been gone for sev eral hours, and Allen Mnsgrove and the few soldiers who had been left behind, had scattered themselves over the village, to get rid of the tedium of idleness in the gossip of KING OF THE SAMBOS. the scant population which the place afforded. Mildred had retired to a chamber, and Mary loitered from place to place like one disturbed with care. All the party felt that deep sense of loneliness which Is so acute ly perceptible to those who suddenly change life of toll and incident for one of rest, while events of busy In terest are in expectation. "They are gone, ma’am,” said Mary, as she now crept into Mildred’s presence, after having travelled over nearly the whole village, in the state of disquietude I have described; “they are gone at least twenty miles, I should think, by this time; and I never would have believed that I could have cared so much about peo ple 1 never saw before. But we are so lonesome, ma’am. And young Mia* ter Henry Lindsay, I should say, must be getting tired by this time of day. As for the matter of that, people may get tired by standing still than by going on.” “How far do they march today? inquired Mildred, “have you heard your father say .Mlary?” “I heard him and the troop ers who are here allow,” replied the maiden, “that Colonel Campbell wouldn’t reach Colonel Williams be fore tomorrow afternoon. They said it was good fifty miles’ travel. They look like brave men—them that marched this mooning, ma’am; for they went out with good heart. The Lord send that through Hdm they may be the means of deliverance to Major Butler!” At the mention of this name, Mild red covered her face with her hands, and the tears trickled through her fingers. “The Lord send it!” she re peated. after a moment’s pause.” “May He, in His mercy, come to our aid!” Then uncovering her face, and dropping on her knees beside her chair, she whispered a prayer for the success of those who had lately marched forth against the enemy. (When she arose from this posture, she went to the window, and there stood gazing out upon the quiet and unfrequnted street, running over in her mind the' perils to which her brother as well as Butler might he exposed, and summoning to her imag ination the thousand subjects of soli- citued, which her present state of painful expectation might be suppos ed to create or recall. “Wte will set forth early to-mor row,” she said, addressing herself to her companion, “so tell your father. Mary. We will follow the brave friends who have left us: I cannot be content to linger behind them. I will sleep in the lowest hovel, or in the common shelter of the woods; and share all the dangers of the march, rather than linger here in this dread ful state of doubt and silence. Tell your father to make his preparations for our departure to-morrow: tell him I cannot abide another day in this place.” “I should think we might creep near them, ma’am,” replied Mary, ‘‘near enough to see and hear wihat was going on—which is always o great satisfaction, and not get our selves into trouble neither. I am sure my father would be very careful of us, and keep us out of harm’s way, come what would. And it is distress ing to be so far off, when you don’t know what’s going to turn up. I will seek my father—who I believe is over yonder with the troopers at the shop, ta/1 king to the blacksmith 1 —I will go there and try to coax him to do your bidding. I know the troop ers want it more than we do, and they’ll say a word to help it along.” “Say I desire to have it so, Mary. I can take no refusal. Here I will not stay longer.” Mary left the apartment, and as she descended the steps, she fell into a rumination which arrested her pro gress full five minutes, during which she remained mute upon the stair case. “No wonder the poor dear lady wishes to go!” was the ejaculation which came at last sorrowfully from her heart, with a long sigh, and at the same time tears began to flow: ‘•’no wonder she wants to be near Major Butler, who loves her past the telling of it. If John Ramsay was there,” she added, sobbing, “ Iwould have followed him—followed him— yes, if 1 died for it.’’ DOCTOR USES D- D- D- IN HIS PRACTICE.

A Nicaraguan Potentate Who le Too Wily For the White Man. “There Is probably no richer country In the world than Nicaragua." said Dr. Flanagan. “It Is, however, almost In a virgin state, as there has been scarcely any development of Its great resources. President Zelayn, the able and ener getic chief executive, is giving the country a most excellent administra tion and enjoys the absolute confldenec of the |>eopIe. The natives of the Mos- •inlto Coast, as my sectionals called, are known' us Musco, or^amho Indians, and are a queer mixture of Indiau. ne gro and Caucasian elements, with the native Indian type predominating, though most of them show their strain of African blood by a kinkiness of the hair, while others are fair haired and light of skin as a reminder of Scotch buccaneer progenitors. Not one In fifty of these Sambos ever slept in a bed. and not more than one In five ever handles a piece of money. The older members of the family sleep In haiu- mo< ks woven from the fibers of the heuiquen, or the banana stalk, while the juveniles curl up on the floor. They are about as near to nature as any people under the sun, for nature sup plies them with everything necessary to sustain life. “These Sambos are nominally under the Nicaraguan government, it is true, hut they pay direct allegiance to a king, a monarch of their own tribe. Ills authority extends over many vil lages and settlements, embracing a coast line of 150 miles, and he is by no means a figurehead, for in period ical revolutions he often holds the bal ance of power and dictates terms to the contending leaders. The Mosquito Coast Is the most backward, commer cially and industrially, of all the re gions bordering on the Caribbean, and for this the Sambo king is directly re sponsible. He is shrewd enough to know that wherever the white man gets a footing the native soon vanishes, and therefore has he refused the grant ing of concessions for the exploitation of the valuable forests of his kingdom, nor will he allow his subjects to sell their lands. Tnus this wily Indian rul er, who can’t write bis name, has man aged to hold his territory in its primal state against the avaricious schemes of the white men. His people obey him unquestionably, and the general gov ernment is content to let him alone.”— Baltimore American. Damage of Sun’a Rays to Ships. “Did you ever wonder if there was system in the way vessels are faced when they are placed at the docks for the winter?” asked a shipping mer chant as he stood at his office window, looking out at the winter fleet “You will notice,” he continued, “that some of the boats face one way and some the other, from which you would naturally infer that there wasn’t any method about it, but If you had a picture of the same boats laid up last year you would invariably discover that then they were turned the other way. The vessels are reversed from year to year for the reason that lying at the docks one side is much more ex posed to the weather than the other, not so much the wind and rain as the sunlight reflected from the water. “A boat wintered always in one po sition will require new bulwarks and decking on the water side in just half the time required to rot the timbers on the nnexposed side. When you consider thet the decking and bul warks of a sh'p must 1k> entirely re newed once every seven or eight years the scheme of reversing the vessel really works a great saving.”—Detroit Free Press. Fireless Stovee. Firelcss or self cooking stoves which have been so popular In Germany for a number of years have been recently lynch improved. The early types were simply boxes made witli double walls so as to retain the heat, and food to be I (oiled or stewed was first thoroughly heated and then inclosed In the box for a sufficient time to cook by the re tained heat. The latest apparatus is stated by Deputy Consul General J. W. Dye of Berlin to lie heated by a stone. Tliis is made sufficiently hot in an oven or over any fire, then placed in the cooker witli the steak or roast, and the box is sealed up and left for an hour or so until the food Is thoroughly cook ed and hot. With double boxes boil ing. frying and roasting may all pro ceed at once without care. A Neglected Goddess. The Goddess of Pearl Street is not as well known today as she was years ago.

Convert to New Cresd. At a dinner recently given in honor of Augustus Thomas, the playwright, Mr. Thomas discussed bis recent ef forts at writing plays about telepathy, the occult etc., and said: “I am compelled to admit that the occult is becoming popular. Only the other 'day a chorus girl was entering the lobby of a theater when she met the manager. “ ‘Well, I declare, Mr. Brown,’ she exclaimed, ‘if this Isn’t odd! Here I was just thinking of yon this minute, and now you turn up. I always did believe In osteopathy.’ ” RETIRED BUSINESS MAN ‘ FAVORS NEW THEORY E H. Lambert, of Everett, Massachusetts, Believes Stomach the Seat of Life. One of the most Interesting state ments made recently concerning the much discussed Cooper theory, that has spread over the country during the past year, Is made by E. H. Lambert, a retired business man, whose home is at 115 Francis Street, Everett, Mass. Mr. Lambert has this to say in con nection with Cooper and his medi cines: “Some time ago 1 read an ar^ tide about this man Cooper, in which he claimed that stomach trouble was directly responsible for most ill health. He went on to say that, although his medicine did nothing but get the stom ach in sound condition, it wonld, in many cases, remove kidney and liver trouble and various other ailments. He argued from this that the stomach was the main cause of sickness, and stated that the success he has had with his medicines was due entirely to this fact “I am now fully convinced that this theory is correct and believe Cooper has a really remarkable medicine, judging from my own experience. “I have been a sick man for five years. Three years ago I was told by a physician that I had Bright’s dis ease of the kidneys. I have treated constantly for this trouble since, with out results. After reading the articls I have mentioned, I purchased some of this man Cooper’s medicine. I have been astounded by what it has dons for ms. I was relieved to some extent within 24 hours. Today my health is better than for five years, and so fan as I can tell, my kidney trouble haa disappeared. “My wife, who had stomach troublg for some time, tried the preparation after noting its action in my ci and her improvement Is fully as ed as mine. She now eats heartily' three times a day without any distress whatsoever. Her nervousness has qifio left her. I certainly believe this man’s success is fully justified, as he un doubtedly has a wonderful medicine.’* We will gladly describe the remark able record made by the Cooper medi cines to all who wish to know of them, ’—Gaffney Drug Oo. Father John’s Cruel Gifts. Two stories have been told of Fathei John by an English lady who for a number of years was at the Russian court. In one case Father John healed of paralysis Princess B., a girl of four teen, whom all tiie doctors had given up. The cure. too. was permanent, since it was performed nearly twenty years ago, and the princess is now mar ried and tke mother of several chil dren. In the other case a young man, whose doctor pronounced him suffering from an incurable heart disease, travel ed a long distance to be healed by Fa ther John. The father said that ail he could do for him was to give him one present to take away with him and to send him another by post to his home, neither of which was to be opened till a certain date. He then prayed with the poor sufferer and sent him away. The appointed day arrived, and with it the parcel which was to come by post. He found it and found corpse candles inside. He opened then that which he had brought back with him and found a shroud inside. The wretched youth died at once of the shock.—London P. T. O. Fa ir Decent of Sandy. One of the Carnegie hero commis sioners now In New York recently made a visit to Canada to Investigate the story of Sandy Ferguson. He learned that Sandy had jumped into a river filled with floating ice, swum a bundled yards, rescued a drowning boy and, after a great struggle, got him to shore. As a result of his cold plunge Sandy was stricken with pneumonia and for a long time hovered between life and death. In the course of his investigation the hero commissioner visited Dr. Cam eron, who had attended Sandy during his Illness, and from him heard the story in all its details. “Do you think Mr. Ferguson perform ed a really heroic act?” the commis sioner inquired of the doctor. “I kinna say.” said the doctor, run ning his hand through his hair.

A hospital nurse was grinding a reddish brown substance in a coffee mill. “What if it?” she said. “Why, it is blood — blood for newborn orphan babes.” . “Yes,” said the nurse. “All over the world the doctors are trying blood as an infant food, and their success is wonderful. Blood fed babies turn out ruddy and fat and muscular. Beside them your milk fed baby seems pale and soft These experiments with blood were begun by a French doctor, one Regnard. He tried blood, dried and pulverized, on motherless lambs, and so great was bis success that he next tried It on babies. Ordinary slaughter house blood is used. We dry It and sterilize it, then serve it, pow dered, with any ordinary infants’ food.”—New Orleans Times-Dcmocrat. Pharaoh’s Bad Temper. A German savant has just discovered why Phargoh hardened his heart and gave the children of Israel snch a bad time. It is really no wonder that the hapless monarch was bad tempered, according to this Investigator, for his mammy shows that he must have suf fered from gout, a disease which has never been known to produce sweet ness of disposition, and that he must also have been a martyr to toothache, all his teeth being in a shocking state of decay. If only among the children of Israel there coaid have been found some skilled worker in gold who could have filled these royal teeth, they might have been allowed to depart in peace. The mummy also shows that this ancient ruler, who died 1,200 years before the Christian era, was stout and haldbeaded. Where a Multitude of Sins are Covered. The LAM.

This bit of local color is from the Japan Times: “At Sbluokubo, a small village in Sosiiu, consisting of only seventy houses, several cases of rob bery have lately occurred, to the great alarm of the villagers. A diligent search instituted by them for the of fender proved an utter failure. The community consequently held a mass meeting and unanimously agreed upon cursing the robber to death. A virtu ous priest of the locality was accord ingly applied to for the purpose. “He, however, declined to curse the robber to death, an act too cruel for a holy man like him to resort to, 'but promised that he would paralyze the robber by his powerful prayers, so as to disable him and lead him to repent ance. Thus the priest commenced his incantations. But, behold, the robber continued bis subtle operations, to the Indignation of the entire community. “The priest has been condemned as a worthless fellow, and the villagers have taken upon themselves the task of repairing every day to the village temple by twos and threes to offer horrible prayers by which the robber Is doomed to an early and fearful death.” Every Mirror Poisons Somebody. Every mirror is made at the cost of human suffering and poisoning. The silvering of the glass by applying a layer of tin foil alloyed with mercury ii* volves so much risk of poisoning, the work people constantly breathing the mercury vapor, that numerous attempts have been made to use another metal for the purpose. It was shown by Lie big that a fine adherent deposit of me tallic silver could be applied to glass by reducing a solution of silver salt with milk sugar, so this method has been employed as a commercial proc ess. There have been partly successful attempts to get a like deposit of cop per. The mirror often lacks brilliance and Is usually disfigured with stains, but it has been found by F. D. Cbat- taway of England that solutions of copiier salts can produce brilliant red dish films of metallic copper which are as perfect reflectors as silver mirrors. His method of coating glass with a layer of copper, it is thought, will proba. bly be used extensively in making mir rors and other glassware articles.— Chicago Tribune. Invalids’ Rooms in Church. “An invalids* room is an occasional feature of the modern church.” said an architect. “A very convenient feature It is, too, especially for health resorts. These rooms are usually erected on one side of the pulpit and a little above It. They have little windows through which the invalid congregation may look out. They have also couches, rocking chairs, reclining chairs. Thanks to these rooms, invalids, well wrapped up, may rest comfortably and, secure from drafts, may listen every Sunday morning to good music and an edifying sermon.”—New York Press. —Compare 5 cento worth of gerdi •eod bought from ae with one of dux little g oentfl papers only about thn thnee ae much.
