THE STORY OF 10.
r One day a ehepherd wandered through
the forest till he came to a stream that
cut off his footsteps from farther travel.
The trees were in fall leaf, and the
banks of the stream Were soft with fresh,
green grass, on which the snn shone
with a warmth and brilliancy 8Q great
that flowers had sprung up, decking the
green with many colored patterns.
So inviting did' the spot appear that
after a glance around the shepherd threw
himself down, and leaning against a
tree he began softly to sing a sweet
melody.- v
He was not an ordinary looking man.
More indeed was he like a god than a
mortal. His massive head was heavy
with thick, lionlike locks, which over
hung a broad, wonderful brow. His eyes
were bright and piercing, bnt of no dis
tinctive color, and his form and stature
were glorious to look upon, for he had
the strength of a Hercules combined
with the beauty of an Apollo.
And indeed he was not mortal, for it
was the great Jupiter himself, who had
disguised himself as a simple shepherd,
and who now lay beside the water. ...
While he sang suddenly a slight com
motion of the waters was visible. Bub
ble after bubble rose, till a fountain
seemed springing from the middle of the
stream. And while Jupiter looked the
water took on a human 'form, and a fair
maiden stepped lightly to the shore and
saluted the monarch of heaven and
earth.
It was the nymph Io, daughter of the
river god Inachus. She was very beauti
ful, and her garments of woven sea
weeds, dashed with spray and inter
twined with colored Shells, shone ' and
glistened as the sunlight played over
them. Her long hair fell about her like
a golden shower, and she was so very
lovely to look upon that it is no wonder
Jupiter was pleased.
Now, it happened that while Jupiter
was sitting on the bank of the stream
that day Juno, his queen, was looking
down upon the earth from Olympus, and
seeing him there she made up her mind
to join him. They did not get along
with each other very well, and Juno
was in constant fear that she might lose
her power and her place be filled by an
other queen.
So she mounted her chariot, drawn
by eight brilliant peacocks, and was
soon beside her lord. To her surprise she
saw standing near him- a beautiful heif
er, to whicn ne spose genue woras
now and then. Suspecting some mis
chief, she asked Jupiter to what herd
the heifer belonged, and be answered
that it belonged to no herd, but was a
fresh creation from the earth.
"Then give it to me," said Juno.
Jupiter would have refused, but he
did not care to provoke the queen's an
ger by denying so simple a request, and
he give her the heifer.;
Now, this heifer was Io, Jupiter hav
ing turned her into that form as he saw
Juno approach, hoping thus to quiet the
fears that his queen was subject to. In
this he did not altogether succeed, for
Juno at once placed the heifer under the
care of Argus, the watchful shepherd,
who had a hundred eyes and who never
slept with more than two of them at a
time.
Argus was not unkind, but he was
very strict and severe. He allowed the
heifer freedom in the daytime, but at
night he tied a cord around her delicate
throat and fastened her to a tree.
So the time went on. Inachus sought
his daughter far and near, and Io often
wandered down to the stream when she
saw her sisters at nlay. She left them
caress her, and they made a collar of
shells for her. One day her father offered
"her a handful of soft green grass, and
she licked the outstretched hand. In
vain she tried to tell him who she was.
Her only cry was a loud bellow, which
frightened even herself.
Suddenly' she thought of how she
might make herself known, and with
her hoof she wrote her name in the
sand. Then the sisters gathered around
her and wept, and her father caressed
her and bemoaned her sad fate.
But the watchful Argus saw all this
and quickly came and drove the heifer
back to its flock, where he kept even
stricter watch over it than before.
After a long time Jupiter bethought
himself : of the fate of Io, and finding
how she suffered he dispatched Mercury
to put an end to Argus and to so set Io
free. For he could not restore her to her
own form without the consent of Juno.
Mercury, that bright messenger of the
gods, whose duty it seemed ever to be to
relieve the distressed and help the trou
bled, put on his winged sandals and his
cap, and taking his pipes, on which he
played sweet music, he descended to
earth, ready to perform the task assign
ed him. ,
When he reached the place where Ar
gus generally drove the herds to drink,
he - put by his sandals and his cap, and
keeping only his staff and his pipes he
appeared like a shepherd driving his
flocks. Then, when he saw Argus ap
proach, he began to play upon the pipes.
Argus heard the sweet, strange musiu
and was charmed, and seating himself
upon a high rock, whence he could over
look the fields, he called Mercury to him.
"Come hither, gentle shepherd boy,"
he cried. "Sit here by me in the shade
of Ihis great tree and sing me some songs
upon that instrument you carry. "
Mercury complied, for this was just
what - he wanted. He played bis most
soothing tones, hoping to lull the great
giant to sleep. Then he told him stories
and talked till the sun was mgn m mo
heavens. But, though Argus nodded and
closed some of his eyes, yet he was ever
watchful, and Mercury was well nigh in
despair. ,
At last he said to Argus :
"Since you like so well the strains of
music I bring forth from my pipes, let
me tell you how it first came to be made
and used. You must know, Argus, that
it is called the syrinx, as well as the
pandean pipes, and when you hear the
story you will understand its meaning.
"There lived long ago here in this
beautiful land of Greece a nymph named
Syrinx. All the satyrs and other spirits
of the woods and wind and wave loved
her and vied with each other in gaining
her slightest smile. But she cared for
none of her admirers. She was devoted
to Diana and the chase, and indeed she
was so beautiful in her aotivity that no
one blamed her for preferring her sport
to anything else. She might have been
taken for Diana herself, so skillful was
heaudflo Jpifily, ptherdifferenoe
lay in the bow she carried. Hers was of
ivory, while the queen's was of silver. ?
x "One day as she was returning weary
from the hunt the god Fan met her and
immediately fell a victim to her charms.
But though he praised and flattered her
and offered to make her his queen, she
feared him and fled, swift as the wind,
from his entreaties. But though her
step was .light and free, he gained upon
her, and just as they reached a stream.,
of water he was about to touch herein
her fear and terror she' cried aloud to
her friends for aid, and in a moment her,
form was changed. Pan found that his
arms encircled a tuft of reeds by the
stream, and as he sighed, soft and sweet,
musio breathed through the, hollow!
stalks. With a cry of joy he then said :
'Thus at least yon shall , be mine,
beautiful Syrinx.'' And cutting the reeds
he hollowed and dried them, and fasten
ing them together of different lengths
produced this instrument which he
named in honor of the lost nymph. "
While Mercury was still talking he
saw Argus . bow his head. . All of his
hundred eyes were sleeping. With one
stroke Mercury cut off his head, which
rolled down the rocks with a tremendous
crash. Then Io was set free.
But Juno was not content with that
revenge. She first honored the faithful
Argus by placing his watchful eyes in
the tails of her peacocks, where to this
day they may be seen. Then she sent a
gadfly to torment Io, who, to escape it,
fled over the whole world. The Ionian
sea, tnrougn . which she passed, was
named for her. :
At last, worn out and exhausted, she
reached the banks of the Nile, and Ju
piter in pity begged Juno to give her
back- her form. .This the goddess did,
and Io was restored to Inachus and her
sisters, young and beautiful to look up
on as when first we met her by her na
tive stream. Edward Courtney in Phil
adelphia Times;
BULLETS IN BATTLE.
An Old Soldier Telia How It Feels to Be
...i - Shot. -
The old soldier, with a hot toddy be
fore him, was communicative.
"How did you feel when you went
into your first fight? the reporter in
quired, as most peoplo do when they be
gin to ask a soldier questions about his
experiences.
"I felt as though there were a mil
lion places in the world I'd rather be
than where I then was, " was the frank
response.
"Were you afraid?'
"Of course I was. I knew those fel
krws shooting at us weren't doing it for
their health or for ours, either, and I
knew enough about guns to know that
they were dangerous. "
. "But you overcame your fear as the
fight progressed?"
"Anyhow, I didn'i mind it so much.
After awhile I got mad, and then I for
got about myself and wanted to lick the
entire army against us. "
"Did you ever get shot?" '
"Once only, and it was queer about
that You read stories in the papers
about how it feels to be shot, and I sup
pose they are correct, for every man has
a different way: of taking his cold lead.
I've seen men shot square in the fore
head, stand for an instant as if turned
hito stone and theii drop without ever
bending a joint Some I've seen run
screaming away and fall dead with the
scream on their lips. I've seen some
grab and clutch at themselves and spin
around as if they had been hit with a
club and didn't know what the matter
was; some drop quietly and say nothing
about it ; some jump high in the air
and fall stiff as pekers, and so on
through a list of them, no two alike.
"In my own case, I was fighting in
the woods in a skirmish in Virginia on
a terrific hot day. It was lively in there,
I can tell you, and I wasn't thinking
.about myself at alL We had started on
a run through an open space after the
Johnnies, and just as we slowed down
when we saw they had got too close to
the main body for us to go after them
I began to feel sick and weak and told
the man next to me that I thought I
must be sunstruck. He began to say
something, and everything grew dark.
The next I knew I was in a hospital
with a hole through my chest. When I
got it or how, I never knew, jbut it
couldn't have been more than ten min
utes before I collapsed, because a man
couldn't stand up long with that kind
of a ventilator in his bosom. "Wash

A Land Without Domestic Animals.
Japan is a land, says The Popular Sci
ence News, without the domestic ani
mals.: It is this lack which strikes the
stranger so forcibly in looking upon Jap
anese landscapes. There are no cows
the Japanese neither drinks milk nor
eats meat There are but few horses,
and these are imported mainly for the
use of the f creigner. The freight cars in
the city streets are pulled and pushed by
coolies, and the pleasure carriages are
drawn by men. There are but few dogs,
and these are neither used as watch
docs, beasts of burden nor in hunting
except by foreigners.
There are no sheep- in Japan, and
wool is not used in clothing, silk and
cotton being the staples. There are no
pigs pork is an unknown article of diet,
and lard is not used in cooking. There
are no goats or mules or donkeys. Wild
animals there are, however, and in par
ticular bears of an enormous size. One
of these that Mr. Finck saw stuffed, in a
museum, he describes as "big as an ox. "
Canary Birds.
A Chicago bird dealer, one of the
most extensive in the country, says of
canaries: "The idea is prevalent that
canary birds either come from the Ca
nary islands or are born in captivity.
Of course some are received from the
Canary islands, and a great many of
them are raised from tame birds .that
have never been at liberty,' or cage
birds, as tbey are called. Still, many of
the very best canaries are captured wild
in the UHited States. Southern Cali
fornia is full of wild canaries, and
there are no better singers in the world.
In some sections the air seems to be
filled with melody. They are so plenti
ful that the boys kill them in great
numbers with sling shots, and they are
little more thought of than sparrows. 1
prefer the American canaries to the im
ported, and there does not seem to be
any danger that the supply will ever
run short"

He was a young Canadian who received
a gunshot wound in' the stomaoh. The
wound healed, but left an open fistula,
thronch which the process of digestion
could be watched and ascertained from
time to time. Through experiments
made in his case the time of digestion
was ascertained with some degree oi
correctness that is, so far as his stom

DON'T STOP TOBACCO.
HOW TO CUBE YOUK8EI.F WHILE
1 TJfiINO IT.
i '
The tobacco habit grows on a man until his nervous
system is se iously affected, imp tiring hea'th, comfcrt
and happness. To quit suddenly is too severe a
shock to the system, as tobacco to an inveterate user
becomes a siimu'ant that his system cont nually
craves. "Bacc-Cnro" is a scientific cure for the
tobicco habit, in all its forms, carefully comp unded
after the formnla of an eminent Beilin (hysician who
has nsed it in his private practice since 1873, without
a failure. It is pme'y vegetable and guaranteed per
fectly harmless. Yon can use til the tobacco you
want whi e taking "Baco Cu-o." It will notfy you
when to stoo. We give a written: gn .rantee to cur
permanently any case with three boxes, or refund the
money with 10 per cent interest "Baco-Cnro" is
sot a substitute, but a scientific cure, that cures with
out the aid of will power and wi;h no inconvenience.
It leaves the system as pure and free from nicotine
as the day yon took vour first chew or smoke.
