Several years ago Dr. Clark's old wounds
began to trouble him. He grew weak and
emaciated, and his friends despaired of his
life. Ho finally recovered sufficiently to bo
out but was a mere shadow, weighing only
90 pounds. Tho best medical attendance
failed to restore his lost strength and vigor.
"A friend gave rao a box of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pill* for Pale People," said Dr. Clark,
"and they helped mo so much that I bought
a half dozen boxes and took them. I soon
regained my strength, now weigh 190
pounds and, except for injuries that can
never be remodied, am as well as ever.
"I consider Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for

A Fortune From Scare.
An inventive genius who suffered
from attacks by stray dogs when riding
his wheel, set his wits to work to devise
something which would be an effica
cious, and yet comparatively harmless,
means of defense. As a result he has
brought out and patented a pocket
pistol which will shoct ammonia,
water or other liquid. The most vic
'ous dog cannot withstand a few drops
of ammonia in his mouth or eyes, and
yet there is no danger of actually in
juring a valuable animal which might,
playfully annoy a rider. The weapon
has proved so much of a success as a
means of defense as well as fuu-mak
iug, that the lucky inventor is realizing
much money from his device.

FLAGS ON A MAN-OF-WAR
HCHTING GOES ON UNTIL A NA
TIONAL EMBLEM COMES DOWN.
(Tarn About a Cabin Boy Who Made tin*
Enemy Strike His Colors—Soldier* and
Sailors Loie Heart "When Their Na
tion's Emblem Disappears.
A story is told of a cabin boy on
board a man-of-war who, by his action
in pulling down the enemy's flag dur
ing a battle, gained a victory for his
3ommander. The story illustrates the
ralue of the national llag iu a naval
iction, and how much depends upon
the sailors seeing it flying from the
masthead above them. It was just at
the beginning of a battle between two
ships that the cabin boy, who had
never been iu a tight, asked one of
the sailors how long it would take the
enemy to surrender, and what his own
ship would have to do to beat the
other.
"Do you see that?" asked the sail
or, pointing to the flag which was fly
ing from the masthead of the other
ship. "As long as that is flying the
other fellows will fight, but when it
comes down they will stop and their
ship will surreuder."
The cabin boy was too small to fight,
but he made up his mind to get the
flag for his Captain. Duriug the bat
tle, when the ships were lashod to
gether, he crawled on board the eue
my's vessel, and while the sailors were
busy fighting climbed the rope ladder
which ran up the mast, and, pulling
the flag from its place, wrapped it
around his body and carried it back to
his own ship. The sailors were fight
ing bravely, until one, looking up and
seeing that the flag was gone, cried
out to his compauious that the Captain
had pulled down the flag, and there
| was no use fighting longer. The men
threw down their arms, and tho mis
take was not discovered until it was
too late, for the cabin boy's comrades
had seized the ship,
j The flag of his country is what
every sailor and soldier throughout
I the world fights for duriug a battle;
; when the flag is gone they lose heart
| and give up easily. Some of the
bravest deeds have beou iu defence of
j the flag, and to get it back again when
the enemy have captured it. When a
j ship goes into battle the national flag
j is run up to the masthead, the highest
: point on tho vessel, where it flies un
til tho engagement is over. Some
| times, when the other ship is the
stronger, or its sailors tight better,
and the Captain sees that he is beaten,
!he pulls down his flag to show the
j enemy that ho has had enough and
j wants to surrender. This act is called
"striking the colors." It is a usual
thing to run up a white flag in the
' place of the one which has been hauled
| down, but often the simple act of
j striking the colors is enough to end
a battle. So long as the Captain of
a ship sees any flag except a white one
flying from tho enemy's vessel he will
continue to fire upon it, for it is a
j sign that tho sailors have not given
up and are ready to fight longer.
Sometimes, during a naval battle,
the ropes which hold tho flag are shot
away, but in such cases there are al
! ways some brave sailors who will
climb the mast and put another in its
place. Duriug tho Revolutionary
j War, when the ship commanded by
I Paul Jones was fightiug an English
j vessel, tho American flag was shot
away and fell overboard into the
water. One of tho sailors, who saw it
fall, jumped after it, and although he
I vas wounded swam with it back to
| ilie skip, when it was fastened to the
fop of the mast again. When the flag
vent overboard the Englishmen began
! to cheer, for they thought that Paul
■ lones had surrendered, but when they
flaw it flying from the masthead once
more they changed their minds and
finally surrendered themselves. The
actiou of the wounded sailor in jump
ing into the water to rescue the flag
made his companions fight all the
harder.
Every one who has read American
history knows about tho battle of Lake
Erie, and of how Commodore Perry
| carried the flag from his sinking ship
j and hoisted it upon another. When
the English Captain saw Perry going
in a rowboat from tho sinking ship
with the flug thrown over his shoulder,
ho ordered his sailors to sink the boat
so that tho flag couldn't bo hoisted at
the masthead of another American
vessel. He knew that if tho American
sailors saw that their flag was lost they
would lose heart aud surrender, and as
( lie expected, when they saw tho flag
| flying again they worked the harder
j and finally beat all his ships.
| A ship going into action carries
! several flags; tho national colors,
; which are hoisted iu the most promin
! cnt place; tho union jack, the pen
| naut, which is a long, narrow streamer
| flying from the masthead, aud a set of
signal flags, which are used to send
messages from one ship to another.
When a squadron of vessels under an
Admiral goes into a light the flagship
flies, besides the other flags men
tioned, one which denotes the rank of
that officer. In the old days, when
war vessels were made of wood and
had three masts, most of the flags
were hoisted to the top of these masts.
Nowadays, however, many of our
fighting ships have only one mast, and
several flags may be hoisted upon that,
but the Stars and Stripes are always
at the top. Sometimes a llag is hoisted
at the end of the yardarm, usually in
the case of Bigual flags.
When the squadron is waiting for
the enemy's ships and they are sighted,
the signal "prepare for action" is run
up on the flagship.
During tho war of 1812 an English
Captain made himself a great deal of
trouble through fear that some' of tho
sailors on board his skip might pull
down his flag before ho had beateu
the enemy. Just before the battle ho
ordered a sailor to climb to the top of
the mast and nail the flag there. Tho
American ship proved tho better, and !
before long the Englishman wanted to
surrender, but when lie wished to pull !
down bis flag he con'du'f. The sail
ors were busy fighting, sc tho C'aptaiu
himself had to climb the mast aud
tear down the British ensign.
There have been instances when tlie
commander of a ship nailed his ting to
the mast and left it flying thcro until
the vessel sank. The last object
which appeared above tho water was
the colors, aud even the victorious
enemy cheered the sinking flag.—New
York Sun.

Cannibalism in Australia.
While the authoress (of "Flower
llunter iu Queensland") saw nothing
but eliarm iu tho beauty of the tropi
cal forests—except as regarded the
snakes and the stinging insects, aud
the chance of meeting a casual croco
dile—she found, alas, no good thing
among the Australian natives. It is
strange to think that they are canni
bals still, even close to our towns. At
one place where Mrs. Bowau stayed
tho natives bad killed and eaten a
Chinaman ouly a few days before her
visit. At another place "they told
me," she says, "that 011 that very
afternoon high revelry had been go
ing 011 iu the native camp as they
feasted ou the roasted remains of au
old woimiu, who had beeu allowed,
against their usual custon, to die a
natural death the day before." Nor
are these savages pleasant neighbors.
A settler at whose house Mrs. Bowau
stayed at Somerset, Capo York—tlio
only house for many miles iu that
part of Queensland —can still arm a
hundred men, if necessary, aud guns
and pistols liang on the walls, ready
loaded in case of sudden attack. This
gentleman gave tho authoress some
Spanish dollars, cemented together
with coral, which had beou recovered
from the wreck of a warship, which,
early in this century, rau ashore on a
l-cef near tlio coast, and whose crew
were killed and eaten by the natives.

Kipling Anecdote Wrecked.
Kipling has described tho travels of
a plausible lie that has beeu properly

tion that has beou going the rounds
for several years as a Kipling anecdote
has just beeu vigorously denied by bis
father.
According to this story, Mr. Kip
ling, senior, and his son went on a
sailing voyage together when ltudyard
Kipling was a boy. The father was
lying sick in his cabin when au officer
appeared and said:
"Mr. Kipling, your son lias climbed
out on the foreyard, aud if he lets go
he will be drowned, and wo cannot
save him."
"Oh, is that all?" said Mr. Kipling.
"Don't worry. He won't let go."
Ms. Kipling, senior, is quoted by an
English paper as saying:
"Tho ouly time that I made a voy

twelve years old, and that was belweeu
