    OAMOERSIGNALS.
No engineer would be mad enough to
run by the flag which signaled danger.
What the danger was he might not under
stand, but he would take no chances.
It is different with the average man or
woman. They at
tempt constantly flßßj m
to run by the dan- I
ger signals |
Nature and that |
attempt costs r I
thousands of lives M|\ jW
every year. When the fT I
appetite becomes irregu- I
lar or entirely gives out,
when sleep is troubled
and broken, when there
is a loss of flesh, when
there is a constant feel
ing of dullness and lan
guor, Nature ia hoisting
the danger signal. The
stomach and its allied
organs are failing in their
work and the body is los
ing the nutrition on which -
its strength depends.
Such a condition calls
for the prompt use of Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical •'
Discovery. It cures dis- /J^k
eases of the stomach and / f
other organs of digestion 'J
and nutrition, purifies
and enriches the blood and builds up the
body with sound, solid flesh.
"Your kindness to me I can never forget,"
writes Mrs. Josie E. Clark, of Enterprise, Shelby
Co.. Mo. "I cannot express half my feelings of
gratefulness to you. I had despaired of ever
getting well. I bad been in bad health for
twelve years. Had aches all through rae. numb
hands, cold feet, and everything I ate distressed
me; bowels constipated, was verv nervous, de
pressed and despondent. In fact. I can't express
naif my bad feeling* to you. When I first wrote
to you I thought I coula never be cured. I have
taken six bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, and my health is now good. You
have my honest recommendation to all suffer
ers. I tnink there is no medicine in the world
as good as Dr. Pierce's."
If constipated use Dr. Pierce's Pleas
ant Pellets. They cure constipation,
biliousness and sick headache. Tliey do
not produce the "pill habit."

I Copyright, 1001, by A. S. Rlchar.Uon jj
Among the Cubans who were ready
to receive the munitions of war as the
steamer was backed in a little cove at
midnight after successfully dodging
the Spanish gunboats was the outcast.
He was au American and, though in
ragged uniform and having a disrep
utable look, was evidently much re
spected by the rebels. He was in
charge of the party unloading the
arms and had the energy of six ordi
nary men. When the boxes were safe
ly nshore, he said to the five of us who
had volunteered for the Cuban service:
"Now, boys, come ahead. If you had
known what you were going into, you
wouldn't be here. As it Is, you'll have
to make the best of it. The Cubans
want help, but they won't give an out
sider a fair show, and if any of you
happens to be taken prisoner I'll guar
antee that you won't live ten minutes.
There's some little patriotism about it,
enough to make you want to shoot
straight, but the wholtf thing is a fam
ily row, and one can't say enough bad
things about either side. My name's
Chips, just Chips, and I came over
here simply to get shot."
Chips was a scout, a spy and a sharp
shooter and had little to do with the
rank and file. lie could have given
any Cuban general spades and cards
on how to conduct a campaign. He
was thoroughly disgusted with the
style of fighting and the cruelty prac
ticed on prisoners, but he offered no
criticisms.
It was a month before I got his story.
We had had two or three skirmishes
with the Spanish and had been amazed
at the reckless manner In which he ex
posed his life. He was a dead shot
and perfectly Indifferent to the ene
my's bulletß,and I honestly believe that
In the year he was with the Cubans
he Inflicted at least half the loss suf
fered by the Spanish. I had heard him
coughing at night In a way to make
me wonder if consumption had not
taken a firm hold on him, and I
couldn't help but notice how thin he
was and how little appetite he had. It
was one day while we were scouting
within a mile of the Spanish lines and
were lying in a thicket, with the land
crabs nipping at our clothing and the
mosquitoes hovering about us in
clouds, that be said:
"Yes, there's a story behind all this,
but I don't care to rake it up. You can
KC*r A MAN OP CS HAD THE SLIGHTEST
HOPE.
take it that I come from a good fam
ily, have hud all the advantages of
wealth and education, and that it's my
fault that I am today a family out
cast. I'm rot blaming mother—God
bless her—and I'm not blaming poor
old dad. Itfs all my fault. They can't
know whether I'm living or dead, but
I hope they have done grieving for me.
I was a fool and worse. Now it's too
late to talk of reconciliation. Camp
life has brought on consumption, and
my days are numbered. It would only
be going home to die, and I'd sooner
do that here. I came over here for
reckless adventure, and I'm going to
play it to the end. All I'm afraid of
Is that I shall be laid up the last three
or four weeks of my life and die like
a dog in his kennel instead of putting
up a decent finish."
I asked Chips no Impertinent ques
tions, l»ut I thought It out for myself—
a rich man's son, Yale or Harvard,
debts, reproofs, dishonorable affairs,
disgrace and expulsion. That was
probably the worst and only what has
befallen many a young man. Chips
might have done foolish things, mad
things, dishonorable things, but he was
not a criminal. He was above that. I
ilidn*t even try to deceive him as to his
state of health. He was a doomed
man and fully realized it. Words of
Cheer or sympathy would have been
übcloss. Had he told me nothing I
could have known from his reckless
scouting that day that he wanted to
die the death of a soldier instead of an
Invalid.
Another week passed, and twenty
five of us were sent to break through
the Spanish lines and bring up more
ammunition. Chips was looking gaunt
and feeble, bnt he responded with alac
rity. He realized the danger and per
haps intended to make it his last fight.
It was entirely the fault of the
Cuban colonel who commanded the de
tachment that we were led Into a trap
and the entire command made prison
ers without having a chance to fire a
gun. It was a neat stroke of business
on the part of the Spanish, and they re
joiced over it for half an hour and then
prepared to reap the fruits—that is, we
were brought before a general who had
io more feeling of mercy toward a
tebel thjin for a rat in the gutter, and
he proceeded to try us by court mar
tial. He called in no 7>ther officer.
There was a standing order on both
sides to take no prisoners, and it was
disobeyed only by accident. A court
martial was merely the preface to be
ing shot and was BO understood by
both sides.
It was a beautiful morning as we
were drawn up in lino before an old
sugar house which had been turned
into a headquarters, and the Spanish
general began business. We were dis
armed, but not bonnd. The enemy
were ten to one and hemmed us in on
three sides. The first man on the right
of our line was the first one called be
fore the "court." Inside of thirty sec
onds he had been charged, tried, con
victed, sentenced and led away to be
shot. He was hardly out of our sight
before he was a dead man. The gen
eral was no man to dally. He went
through with it as he would a drill,
and it was not long before our line had
shortened up to ten men. The five
Americans of us were on the left, el
bows touching, and not a man of us
had the slightest hope in his breast
when Chips uttered his first word.
"Boys," said he in a low voice, but
plainly audible to every one of us, "the
general is sending souls to kingdom
come by express, but I am going to in
terrupt his little game. Now, pay
strict attention to what I say and make
no comments or suggestions. As the
last Cuban is called in I am going to
make a dash for the captaiu directly
in front of me. I'll reach him in three
jumps, and before he can straighten
up I'll have his sword and drive it
through him. Then I'll put my back
1 against that tree and die as I have
I been hoping to. I won't last long, of
, course, but I'll get two or three more
: oi Ufag."
i One of the two remaining Cubans
was taken, and as be entered the bouse
with a prayer on his lips Chips con
tinued:
"Steady, now, and don't miss a word.
Nobody is to follow me. There on the
right flank their line is the thinnest
and the jungle thickest. As I make
my rush for the captain you rush for
the flank, break through and take to
cover in the Jungle. You'll all get
away. Get ready!"
"But we"— I began, when he inter
rupted me with:
"Silence, fool! Ilaven't I told you I
want to die? There is no use throwing
other lives away. If one of you dares
to follow me, I'll turn the sword on
him instead of the captain. They are
coming for the last Cuban now. Fetch
a long breath and when you mo\e
make a regular football rush of it.
Now, then, hurrah!"
Chips sprang forward, and we wheel
ed to the right and made our rush. It
was a complete success. Before the
soldiers at "parade rest" could bring
up their muskets we were upon and
over them, and, though a shower of
bullets followed us into the jungle, no
one was hit.
Even as we rushed we knew that
Chips had won his first stroke, for the
officer screamed out as the steel was
wrenched from his hand and found his
heart.
It was months later before we knew
all, before it was fbld us that our com
rade stood with his back to the tree
and laid about him till he had killed
two others and wounded four. lie
was fairly riddled with bullets before
he went down and the cheer on his
lips turned to a death rattle in his
throat. Could his weeping mother and
stern hearted father but know they
would say that the outcast son had re
habilitated himself.
Father of Modern Jurisprudence.
Louis IX. was practically the founder
of modern jurisprudence. About the
year 1241 he noticed the abuses which
were caused in France by men taking
into their own hands the work of re
dressing their own wrongs and pub
lished a proclamation establishing the
quarantine du roi. This forbade pri
vate redress for wrongs for the space
of forty days after the Injury was com
mitted. During that time the injured
person must seek redress and satisfac
tion in the king's court, and if his
wrong were not righted at the end of
forty days he might then take its rec
tification into his own hands.
This proclamation made Justice
speedy and tolerably sure, although, of
course, its administration was in a
rough and ready way, and unless the
records are at fault some law of this
kind prevailed in Louisiana at the time
when Missouri was a part of the
French king's possessions.
A Bad Drink.
"The foreigners up in the coal re
gions," says a writer Jn the Philadel
phia Record, "drink poliusky, and
that's why so many stories of horrible
crimes come from there. Polinsky is
at the bottom of every riot and much
murder. It is simply a mixture of beer
and bad whisky, usually blended in a
washtub and seasoned with spices. At
every wedding, christening, wake or
other gathering of a social nature there
Is always a tub of poliusky. In one
hour all hands will be drunk, In two
hours there will be a free fight, uud.
unless the police interfere, in three
hours there will be a murder. In the
more thickly populated communities
the police try to break up these polinsky
parties in their incipient stages, but
they don't always succeed."
Forcible.
Some of the late Lord Randolph
Churchill's friends once tried to have
Lord Salisbury reinstate his erratic
lieutenant. Salisbury listened to theui
patiently and ilien asked, "Have any
of you ever had a carbuncle on the
back of your neck?"
"No," was the reply.
"Well, I have," retorted his lordship,
"and I don't want another."
GREWSOME RELICS.
Pathetic Memorial* of the 111 Fated
City of Pompeii.
In the musenm at PornpeH are pre
served the most horrid aucr pathetic
relics of the last days of the ill fated
city.' Early in 180.1 the workmen who
were helping to unearth an immense
palace struck into a cavity in the lava,
the nature of which, of course, was a
mystery. Without breaking further
into it they poured plaster of paris
down the crevices that were already
opened, and as soon as the plaster had
hardened the crust of lava was care
fully removed, and, 10, the form of a
human being in his last struggles was
revealed! The outlines and form of
the person were perfectly preserved,
showing plainly *fcat.he had been bur
ied in boiling lava, which had hard
ened about him. The intervening 1,800
years and the heat of the lava besides
had reduced the body to a handful of
dust, but the lava had left a cast nat
ural as life.
Since that time several bodies have
been reproduced, one of them with the
features so perfectly preserved as to
show the expression of the face. In
some of the plaster casts parts of the
skeleton are imbedded. Two female
casts which are clasped In each other's
arms have been called "The Mother
and Daughter." Persons who have
seen this group say that there is noth
ing in all Pompeii more touching than
the utter despair depicted upon the
face of the "mother."
Origin of the Word "Cuba."
Cuba is the name by which the is
land was originally known to the"Xu
cayan Indians, who were with Colum
bus when he discovered it. One of its
villages or cities was called by them
Cubanacan, and it is reported that
from the similarity of sounds Colum
bus, still supposing himself to be on
the coast of Asia, Imagined that this
must be a city of Kublai Khan, the
Tartar sovereign celebrated by Marco
Polo. The survival of the original
name for Cuba is a remarkable in
stance of persistence, as the island has
been baptized and rebaptized many
times since its European discovery.
Columbus tirst called it Juana In honor
of Prince John, the sou of Ferdinand
and Isabella. After Ferdinand's death
it was called In his memory Fernan
dina. Subsequently this name was
changed to Santiago, after St. James,
the patron saint of Spain. Still later
it was named Ave Maria, in honor of
the Virgin Mary. But none of these
names' held, and the Indian name is
still preserved.—Literary Era.
De Cornered Tilden.
Samuel J. Tilden had a touch of hu
mor, at times querulous in its tone, and
at other times he could be funny with
out meaning to be. He was an expert
judge of wines, and his cellar was
choicely stocked. When dining out,
however, he had a little way of meas
uring by the taste of his guest and or
dering accordingly. Colonel John R.
Fellows noted this trait and once
when dining with Mr. Tilden saw that,
as usual, the Sage of Greystone had
ordered a small bottle of an ordinary
brand for his plate and a very choice
vintage for himself. Mr. Tilden was
called away from the table for a mo
ment, and the colonel deftly shifted
the bottles. When Tilden lifted his
pint to pour out the wine, his eye
quickly noted the difference, but he
got out of the difficulty nicely. "Here,
waiter," he said, "you have made a
mistake in my wine. I want the same
kind Colonel Fellows bns."—New York
