The tribes live entirely by fishing

Then the skin it tinned and dresxxi

One Thin? at a Time.
'Early in life," relates a man who
hat now spent many decade in the
service ot God and bia fellow men,
"I learned from a very simple inci
dent a wholesome leeson, And one
that hat mice been of incalculable
benefit to me.
"When I was between twelve and
fourteen year old my father broke
up a new field ou his farni, and
planted it with potatoes, and when
the plants wore two or three inches
Ligh, he tent me to hoe it. The
ground of that piece was hard to
till ; it was matted wuu graee roots
and sprinkled wiib nones. 1 hotd
the first row and then stopped to
take a general look at the tak be
fore tne. Grass at high at tbe
potatoes was everywhere, aud look
ing at tbe whole from my point it
seemed to be a solid mass. I bad
tbe work to do all alone, and as I
stood ttaring at the broad reach of
weedy toil, 1 felt a good' mind not
to try to do anything more with it.
"Just at that minute I happened
to look down at tbe bill Deateet my
feet. The grass didu't Beeto just
quite at thick there, and I laid to
myself, '1 can hoe this one well
enough.'
"When it was done, another
thought came to help me ; 1 shan't
have to boe but one bill at a time,
at any rate. And to I went to the
next aud the next. JJut here 1
ttopped again and looked over the
field. That gave me another thought,
too. I could hoe every bill at I
came to it ; it was only looking away
off to all the bills that made the
whole teem impaible.
"'I won't look at it !' and I pulltd
my bat over my eyes so I could s. e
nothing but the spot where my boe
bad to dig.
"In course of time I had gone
over tbe whole field, looking only
at the bill in baud,-and my woik
was done.
"I learned a lesson tugging away
at those grass roots which lnevci
forgot. It was to look right down
at tbe one thing to be done now,
and not to Liuder and discourage
myself by looking on at the things 1
have not eome to. I have been
woiktng ever since that aummer at
the hill nearest my feet, and 1 have
always fouud it tbe easiest way to
get a hard task accompliahed, as It
is the tree way to prepare a tioid f. r
i he harvest." Selected.

wooden gunboat that were already
battle scarred by the conflicts of the
few day previous. b'lwly the
Merrimac steamed toward the
enemy, centuring her fire on the
Congress. With almost every shell
that burst from the throat of the
Merriimc's cannon an answering
shriek of death could be felt rather
than heard as the solid ball of steel
nd iron plowed through thu Federal
ship. The duel wat short, for in a
very fe minutes the mast of the
Congress tottered and fell. The
vofscl was oo tire, and the lurid
beauty of the background threw it
hull into bold relief. The emoke
then sank on to its decks for en
instant, as one would press down the
lid of a jck iu the box, and then
followed the explosion of the
powder magazine. With the iury
of a maddened tiger tbe Merrimac
darted at tlio enemy and buried it
steel ram iuto its wooden bosom.
At the Meiriuiac backed away the
water rurhed ioto the hole, and a
second alterward the Congress
lurched to the bottom, defeated and
destroyed.
Iho pictorial representation ot
this fight on the river at the Reunion
will be faithful and true to life.
There will be the background of
tithing shells exploding in the air,
and the color of war will all be
there. At first the CongroM will be
seen, rocking sullenly at her anchor.
Iheu the Merrimac will appear iu
the distance, rapidly approaching.
1 ben both boat will commence to
exchange ear splitting volley of
shot and shell. The powder maga
zine of the Congress will be exploded
and then the tial act of tbe drama,
the ramming of the unking vessel
by the Merrimac, will take place:
Tbe spectacle of war la always
one of strange fascination. Though
we know it tragic outcome, it is
nevertheless a tremendous display.
And this will be no ordinary r yurth
of July exhibition, for in the one
evening of thi part of the entertain
ment sixteen buudred feet of barge
will be loaded with red, blue and
white tire, thousauds of rocket aud
bomb. Another feature of the dis
play will be the illumination of the
entire river at this point. Acres
and acre of water will suddenly be
alive with hissing, writhiug serpent
of tl uiie ; the heavens will be lighted
as high a the eye can see, aud
fountains of are will spout into tbe
ir to tbe height of a thousand loot,
tailing back luto a Niagara of Start
and comets.

Conditions io Porto Rico.
We have beard much recently
thont distrcM in Porto Uico, about
the discontent among the people and
the widespread poverty that pre
vails. Governor Allen, who is now
in this country, on bit arrival, a few
dayt ago, gave ont a roseate state
ment of the condition there, in
which be represented them aagrati
fylng, and ttated that the represen
tations to the contrary were without
foundation and where not totally
false were greatly exaggerated. Hit
statement was substantially tn en
dorsement of Governor Alien' ad
ministration. The following sent
to tbo New York Herald tell a
somewhat different story from that
told by Governor Allen :
' Govern r Allen within the last
month or to ha made everl trip
Into the interior and serosa the west
ern end of the island. After hi re
turn on each occasion he ha given
to the local press optimistic state
ments regarding the condition of the
crops and the outlook generally,
"Nevertheless hnndedt of per
son In thi fertile island are actually
starving because the plantort who
formerly employed them have not
the small capital necessary to plan'
and cultivate crone. The Dovertv-
stricken condition of the tailoring

to emigrate. There are at present
In the island emigrant agent for
three different association one In
Hawaii, one in Cuba and one in
Ecuador. None of those finds it
d: (Ilea It to obtain laborer.
"One day last week at Goanica a
load of emigrant tailed for Hawaii.
They numbered nearly 900 men,
women and children. Seventy five
per cent, of the men were to emaci
ated through hunger that it actually
tired them toclimb the ship ladder.
Most of them bad only the clothe
on their back and absolutely no
household belongings. The chil
dren were mostly naked.
"While it may be a good thing
for the laborers to emigrate, yet the
agriculturist aro becoming alarmed
and are calling for Government in
terference. The island press is unit
ed io opposing t-x tended emigra
tion to other countries.
This is a statement of facts, with
out any accompanying comment, by
a writer who had lias motive for
" Vtntation than Gov. Allen
f In bis rose colored state-
was substantially commending
own administration. Are people
ei.ger to emigrate by the hand rod
from a country where prosperity
prevails i The fact is that for so mo
reason Porto Uico has been on the
ragged edge ever since sho came un

No Sunset on United States Soil.
For tevcral weeks in the year, be
fore and after Ju?e 21st, the tun
never set on United Statet fcrritory,
the territory right here between the
Atlantic and the Pacific, without
reference to Hawaii or the Philip
pine Islands. That it to say, the
ton rises oo the most easterly point
of tbe United States befur it tc-tt
on the most westerly point.
The Aleutian Inlands, at every
body know, camo into our p
sion with Alneka. Attooit the west
ernmost island of the group, and is,
therefore, the westernmost land !
oneing to ns. Its longitude is 180
degrees, 4 3 minutes west. The m jet
easterly point of the United State
i QiiodJy Head, Maine, tho longi
tude of which ia !') degrees, 57 min
utes west. Taking tho difference
in longitude between the Iwo points
Attoo and Qtoddy Head wo
find that United State territory ex
tends from enst to west 12Qdegrtes,
ono-third of the circumference of
the globe. Tji is not enough to
hav . the sun rise on tho mort east
erly part of tho United Slate be
fore it sets on tho most westerly ;
but wo understand it when we con
sider the latitn io of the two points,
and tho varying length of the day.
In the la'itudeof Attoo and (j'loddy
Head the sun is above the horiz m
a short time before and a short time
after Juno 21st for 10 hours and 15
minutes, and as the earth turns over
on is own suit at the rate of 15 tie
greet an hour, it will in 10 hours
and 15 minutes txposu 213 degrees
of its snrfap'j to the sun.
We have found I list the distance
between (v (fly IJetd and Attoo
is 120 degrets, counting from eet
to west ; still counting west, there
fore, it must be 210 degrees from
Attoo to (JuodJy Head. And if
the son is above tbe horizon lot g
enough in that latitude to shine on
2 t-t degrees of the earth ssurfac at
a stretch, it mint be time der--
high at tnddy Head when it is ret
ting at Attoo. As a mutter of fact,
it does ris! at ( j toddy Head about
10 ininutis before it eets at Attoo.
United States to Exploit China.
A late cablegram from V enna
says: Tim French ecmomirt, M.
Paul I.eroy Heanlieu, in an aiti'e
in the Nem s W einer I agobhitt. dia-
cuueitig which civilized nation
likely to exploit China, says: "Ii it
probable that the chief role will I til
to the United States, especially when
the Nicaragua cmal has been cut.
Chins. will then, for economic pur
pewa, becotno an American colony.
The Americans know this, and 'In ir
whole attitude during recent ev. trs
has most certainly been nurkul by
finiwse and foret bought.''

Alcohol In tbe Army.
The Hritisli authorities some tune
ago made a test of the tlieged value
of alcohol when men are subjected
to, onosnal and txhauting labor.
Experiment ware mule at different
timet bd under varying condition
with three regiments from each of
several brigade. In one every man
wat forbidden to drink any alcohol
whatever while the tt lasted ; in
the sec it id malt li'jtior only wat
taken ; io tho third a ration of whia
kv was given to paeh man. The
whl-ky drinkers mamfe-etcd rmre
dash at first, Imt generally in about
four days showed signs of weakness
and fatigue; those given malt li'juor
displayed less dash it first, but their
endurance lasted somewhat longer,
while the abstainer improved daily
in alertness and cUying pmer. In
IheGcrm-in army experiment ire
bci'g made with sugar, whieh is
claimed to have such great sustain
ing powers that it i propowd to
erve it as an extra ration when un
usual f'atigui are to Ik homo,

Mother's
Friend
will do fcf every woman what it did for the
MinnrvoU mother w ho writes the above let
trr. Not to etc it during pregnancy is a
mistake to be paid for in pain and suffering.
Mother's Fritnd equips th patient with a
strong body and cirir intellect, which sn
turn are imparted to the child. It relates
he muscles and allows them to expand. It
relieves morning sickness and nervousness,
ft puis all the organs concerned in perfect
condition for the final hour, so that the actual
labor is short and practically painleu. Dan
ger of rising of hard breasts it altogether
avoided, and recovery is merely a matter of
a few days.
