Worn Out?

Do you come to the close of the day thoroughly exhausted? Does this continue day after day. possibly week after week? Perhaps you are even too exhausted to sleep. Then something is wrong. All these things indicate that you are suffering from nervous exhaustion. Your nerves need feeding and your blood enriching.

MESSIAH OF BRAZIL.

TO RULE BY A "GOVERNMENT OP SAINTS."

To Kdton lh« Monarchy—Barylng •U Prisoners All** la lli Litint Offense—Who Hta Follower* Are—Pedro

Boches Salt Seeker.

HEN Pedro RoVhez in a at is heaven-sent mission of giving to Brazil a "government of the saints" he began hi.-' work of reform in East African Maiidi style. Ht -'t aud the inheritai

ie

of

the earth for the

faithful Hades and a grave of dishonor for impenitents. Time for arg .nr nt had done by, he declared so clea- did he demonstrate the correctness his doctrines that non-comformlty wis no longer regarded as an error. 'iut a crime. At the outbreak of the t, rr of the fanatics in Brazil there we those who counted upon the climate tropics, combined with ov breaking down the constitution ... Messiah, thus preventing any further growth of the new sect. But fanaticism is more contagious than swamp fever, and the alarming Increase in th-: num-bi-rs of the Bahia prophet's followers shows no signs of diminishing. The Messiah of Brazil has a trained band of followers, whose methods of warfare and general conduc. suggest the probability that the death of the founder would have little effect on the fanaticism of the sect. The population of Southern Brazil, where the followers oi the Messiah are most numerous, is Spanish-Portuguese, with a sprinkling of immigrants from Europe and America. The prominent zealots are Creoles, however, declares the St Louis GlobeDemocrat and their energy in behalf of their cause seems tireless. They hold trl-weekly meetings and look upon compromise projects as wiles of the tempter. They range the fores us ni.^ht and day in pursuit of their mission, defying all the miseries of tropical life with the greatest fortitude. The Messiah is truly a man of masterly activities. He rises before daybreak to receive the reports of his restless spies, issues orders of the day, bulletins and emergency orders, till the spirit moves him, runs to and fro with haggard eyes and clinched hands, then explodes In impassioned sermons, and takes hardly time to snatch a mouthful of food before he mounts his horse and gallops '*•7 to inspect his outposts or save precious half hours by meeting some of his messengers halfway. Those who are too cowardly to Join with him in open battle against the powers that be are made to demonstrate their friendship by furnishing him provisions and semi-weekly reports for the benefit of his scouts. Either this or the likelihood of suffering the penalty of death. For the Messiah is no believer in half measures. Hanging or shooting prisoners of war to his mind Is bat ill-pun-ishment for enemies of the cause. Death by torture is his rule. In districts where there is no possibility of rescue hanging his captives head downward and leaving them thus is his favorite mbde of punishment Sometimes they are stoned for the amusement of the recruits or tied to a tree and ringmarked for pistol practice. One of his latest formB of punishment was to bury twelve soldier captives in pits up to their shoulders after cutting off their feet and hands. The officer of the troops who discovered the prophet's victims shot them at their own earnest pleadings to be released from their

the

Buf­

ferings. He was court-martialed, but

PEDRO ROCHEZ.

Was acquitted by acclamation. The prospects of a government by these "Santos"—as they style themselves— has brought together all Brazilian malcontents. In politics the "Santos" are monarchists, favoring the return of the Braganzas. Their loyalty Is conditional, however. If an heir of Dom Pedro comes to the throne he must expect to administer the Jaws under the supervision of the Bahian prophet, Pedro Rochez.

Strange Life in Cavaa.

One would hardly look for new forms of animal life in a vast, dark cavern like the Mammoth Cave of Kentucky. Yet as a matter of fact, no less than seven such forms inhabiting that particular cave, and hitherto unknown to science, have recently been described. The fact that these creatures are very minute does not detract from their scientific interest, while, on the other hand, it must increape o'ir admiration for the skill and industry of the naturalists who do not allow even microscopic life to escape their ken, although hidden in places where no ray of sunlight ever penetrates.

QUEER SURGERY.

M| Anta Are Made to Taka the PIM of Needle and Thread.

Science has made vast strides during the last half of the century, and in no branch of knowledge is this progress more marked than in that of surgery. Many an operatio is now performed with facility and safety that was not dreamed of fifty years ago, and many an operation that we now consider trivial and beneath the remark was then considered as next to impossible. The introduction of anaesthetics and the researches of Lord Lister in antiseptic surgery account largely for this state of things. Indeed, before the Introduction of antiseptic methods in the operating theatre as many lives were lost from those bugbears of all surgeons, pyemia and septicemia, as resulted from the operations themselves. The method, therefore, of securing a wound which is still prevalent among the Brazilian Indians may be looked upon as at least strictly antiseptic. The materials required for performing the operation are found handy almost anywhere in a Brazilian forest. These are a species of a very large ant, which has mandibles that can bite through almost any substance. The mouth is furnished with transversely movable jaws and does not possess a sting. A bite from one of these ants is perfectly harmless, and is followed by no swelling or other evil results. The lower lip of the ant, instead of being a simple cover to the mouth, is developed into a strange jointed organ, which can be shot out much farther than the upper lip or, when at rest, can be folded flat over the face and can be rapidly protruded or withdrawn. It is furnished at its extremity with a pair of forceps, and is able to grasp objects with the strength and firmness of a small pair of pincers. Nothing, unless cased in metal, can resist those jaws. What the Brazilian Indian does when he or one of his patients receives a gash is this: He catches some of these ants, and, holding them to the wound, which he has previously closed together, lets them bite. They fix their mandibles on each side of the wound, and then he pinches off the rest of the body, leaving the mandibles and jaws to close up the wound. A row of these ants' heads keeps a wound together quite as effectively as the needle and thread of a surgeon, but the pain given to the victim of this rude style of surgery must be considerable. Rude as this method may seem, however, it has its advantages in being strictly antiseptic and causing no evil effects. The jaws of the ant are extracted with a pair of forceps after the wound has satisfactorily healed.—New York Herald.

GRAVES OP|&REAT HORSES.

The recent dealt of the young stallion Domino, and the mark of respect shown him by his owners, the Messrs. Keene, in putting an appropriate slab over his grave, recalls the fact that but few of the great horses which have died in this country have any tablet to show where their bones lie buried.

One of the first horses to have this mark of respect shown him was Lexington.

This fine horse died in his stable near the house occupied by his groom, Henry Overton, and at his request Lexington was burled not far away. Mr. A. J. Alexander, Lexington's owner, had an appropriate marble shaft placed at the head of the grave, on which is recorded brief mention of the horse's victories. "Uncle Frank" Harper, who was a neighbor of Mr. Alexander, followed the example set by the Scotchman and when his Incomparable turf performers and stallions, Ten Broeck and Longfellow, died, he gave them decent burial on his pretty Nantura farm, near

IN HONOR OP TEN BROECK AND LONGFELLOW. Midway, and over the grave of each he has erected suitable monuments. These enduring stones tell the observer the breeding and the performances of the horses which lie beneath them.

Little Men.

Many of the great men of history have been men of small stature. Canute, the Great, was a singularly small man. Napoleon, too, was little Nelson had no height to boast of ami the great Conde was short enough.

Gregory, the greatest of popes, was a diminutive man. Among men of letters, poets, philosophers, Montaigne, the essayist, was little so was Pope—a little crooked thing that asks questlons." So were Dryden and Watts

and so wa3 Scarron, who, allnding to his ill-health and little size, called himself an "abridgment of human ipiserles."

Japan, which forty years ago had no other than coasting vessels, none of them steamers, now has several steamship companies, the largest of which owns sixty-three vessels.

iCama and Fma of John J. IngaUs.

Some of the society people of Atchl»on are telling an Ingalls story, which, though undoubtedly true, loses none of Its cleverness on that account. One 6t the Ingalls girls, who is alleged to be very choice of her company and very proud of her father, recently attended a semi-public dance. In the course of the evening she was approached by an Atchison young man, the son of a grocery keeper, who had known her from Infancy, though not intimately. He asked her for a dance, when she replied as she drew back a little superciliously: "I think you are the son of our grocery keeper, but I infer that you do not know me. I am the daughter of the Hon. John J. Ingalls." "Ingalls? Ingalls?" musingly inquired the young troceryman. "Where have I heard that name before? Oh, yes, I remember now. Your father was the man who reported the Corbett-Fltzslmmons prize fight."—Kansas City Journal.

Aa American and English Combine.

The daily papers record the fact that great scheme is on foot for obtaining 4 combination among the cycle tube manufacturing firms in both England »nd America. The idea emanates from Birmingham, and an understanding has been arrived at between the leading tubemakers there and in America whereby no one is to be supplied under a certain price. The promoters of the scheme claim that every maker must loin. Is this another of the irrepressible Mr. Hooley's endeavors?—London Pelican.

Prince or Wale* at Flreg.

The Prince of 'A'ales has always been fascinated by big ilres, and very often has gone'long distances to see the Metropolitan Fire brigade at its dangerous work. Once, after the opera, he strolled, unattended, toward the spot where a red glow in the sky indicated a great conflagration. Seeing a newspaper reporter takir.g notes, the prince asked him for details, which were, of course, readily given, especially as the identity of the questioner was known to the journalist. At the conclusion of the conversation the prince offered the reporter a cigar, which the latter carefully wrapped in an envelope and placed in his pocket. "Why don't you smoke it?" asked the prince. "Because I'm" not likely ever to get another cigar from the Prince of Wales, so I mean to keep this one as memento." The prince laughed good-naturedly, and bringing out his case again, replied"Well, you had better have another one —this time to smoke."

KEEPING^ .FOOTWEAR CLEAN.

The -Womaa Wearer Hay Kara Preseatabjje Boat*.

In this age of athletics the bootoleanlng question Is a serious one. One cannot ride to hounds, tramp over the golf links, or even ride a wheel without rendering one's footwear disrespectable, and housemaids are not yet sufJlclently Anglicized to clean them exI cept under protest. A boot cleaner Is a luxury denied ordinary mortals, says the Philadelphia Times, but with knowledge and energy boots can be kept in a presentable condition by the wearer herself. The directions given below are for brown boots only: "First, all dirt and mud should be removed by soapy, warm water. Then put the boot ftBlde, not near the fire, to dry gradually and when perfectly dry examine them well to discover any stains these may be removed bs a little lemon juice applied with a soft rag, after which the boots are again allowed to dry thoroughly. There are many polishes and pastes for brown boots, and the best of them are used for saddlery and leather goods. They are applied with a soft sponge, and after rubbing well into the leather the boot is rubbed with an old silk handkerchief or a polishing glove. In case the boots are incrusted with mud which has been permitted to dry on, a cheap, strong Japanese wooden paper knife will rewve the dirst without risking the leather, and if a high polish be desired the smooth side of a deer's shank bone—procurable almost anywhere—may be used as a burnisher.

If you feel weak, dull and discouraged you will find a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparillull will do you wonderful good.
