Entlnx and Cold.. Drinking at meals induces a person to eat more than be otherwise would, and excess in eating Is one of the great causes for sickness. In fact, the two great dietary fallings seem to be over eating and drinking of too little water at the proper times. Many colds arc from overeating or from eating gross food. Persons with abundant lung power who exercise a greal deal and breathe much can dispose of a large quantity of food, but the more deli cate aiul sedentary should eat moder ately. A cold once taken will run Its course In spite of what may be done for It unless It Is attended to within 4K hours after Its Inception. The treat ments vary. The cutting off of sup plies by skipping n few meals is one of the principal tilings, for the old say lug about stulling a cold and starving a fever should be literally amplified In to the condition and conclusion that il you stuff a cold you will have a fevet to starve. Sonic persons assert that any cold, if taken In time, may be cur ed without auy medicine whatever by following the simple precautions ol keeping warm, going without eating for 24 hours and drinking largely ot some sort of warm tea. Another plan Is that of drinking cold water freely and going without eating.—Exchange. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure Digests what you eat.

"Yes, I'm speaking from experience. The only witness who ever made me throw up my hands and leave the courtroom was a green Irishman. A section hand had been killed by an ex press train, and his widow was suing for damages. 1 had a good case, lint made the mistake of trying to turn the main witness inside out. "In his quaint way he had given a graphic description of the fatality, oc casionally shedding tears and calling on the saints. Among other things, lie swore positively that the locomotive whistle was not sounded until after the whole train had passed over his de parted friend. Then I thought 1 had him. "'See here, McGiunis,' said I; 'you admit that the whistle blew?' " 'Yes, sor; it blewed, sor.'

GOLD NUGGET f | —.o. - | A Talo of tho Australian Gold ♦ * Diggings. < .Tolm Arclicr decided that the nug get would be safer lu bis little daugh ter's keeping than in bis own. "You must take great care of it, dar ling," said Jolm Archer. "It is for your mother." And Elilo stowed the little nugget away in a corner of tlie old workbox which bad been her moth er's under the cotton and soeks she was darning for her father. She felt duly weighted with the responsibility. She knew that tlds yellow eartli was of great value, for her father, leaving lier mother, who was very delicate, with soine friends in Brisbane, had come a long, weary way to fmd it. Having hidden the little nugget away, Ellie came out of the hut to look around aud see if any one was near who might have seen her. No. No one was near who might have seen her, only Billy, the black—King Billy, the aboriginal monarch, who loved rum and tobacco and who was chopping some firewood for her. This little girl's reason for trusting King Billy, the black, was somewhat strange and is worthy of being re corded. She trusted him because she had been kind to him. But Efiie was only 12. As the child stood in tho broad light, her tumbled hay hued hair kissed and illumined by the bold rays of the sun and her round, trustful blue eyes shad ed from tlie glare by two little brown hands, watching King Billy at ills work, a Hock of laughing jackasses alighted in a neighboring gum tree and set up a demoniac eachinnatlon. What made the ill omened birds so madly merry? What was the joke? Eliie's trust? Billy's gratitude? They failed to explain, hut their amusement was huge and sardonic. "Drive them away, Billy," cried Ef fie, and tlie obedient king dropped bis ax and threw a faggot of wood at tlie tree, wbieli stopped tlie laughter and dispersed tlie merrymakers. "Billy tired now," said the black grinning. "Too much work—plenty wood," and be pointed to the result of Ids labor. "Yes, that will be enough, thank you. You're a good boy. I'll give you some tobacco." "Billy's thirsty." "Then you shall have some tea." "No tea. Bum." "No, Billy. Bum Isn't good for you." "Good for miners; good for Billy." "No, It's not good for miners," said Eflie emphatically. "It makes them fight aud say wicked things." "Makes black fellow feel good," de clared Billy rolling his dusky eyes. Tills last argument was effective. Efiie went Into her hut—her father had returned to his work—and poured a little spirits from John Archer's llask into a pannikin. Billy drank the spirits with rolling eyes, smacked his lips and thou lay'down in the shadow of the hut to sleep. The long afternoon passed very slow ly for Elite. Her few trifling duties as housekeeper were soon done. The little hut was tidied and the simple evening meal prepared and some hours must pass before ber father returned llow could slie pass the time? She bad ouly two books—a Bible and a volume of stories for little girls, which she had won as a prize at school in Brisbane. But she was too young to appreciate the Urst, especially ns the type was very small and it was diflicult reading, and she had grown beyond appreciating the stories for little girls, having known them by heart threii years before. She would like to have slept. Everything around her suggest ed and Invited the siesta—the steady heat, the brightness of the light with out tlie but, the distant murmur of miners' voices which came from be yond yonder belt of wattle gums, tho monotonous hum of the locusts in the forest, the occasional fretful cry of a strange bird and the regular snores of the fallen king, who slumbered in tlie shade of the but. Even the buzz Of the annoying flies assisted tlie general ef fect and brought drowsiness. To remain still for a few minutes would have meant inevitably falling asleep. Ellie felt this and remembered the little gold nugget. If she slept, some thief might come and take it. Aud so she put on her hat and, forsaking the seductive cool and shade of the hut, went out into the brightness and henL Archer's hut stood on the edge of the valley, over against the foot of the blue, heavily timbered hills. About 50 yards distant from it, hidden among the trees, was a high moss grown rock, 'at the base of wblcb Efiie had discover ed the smallest and sweetest of natural springs. Thither the child ran—looking back often to see that uo one approach ed the but In her übsenee to bathe her face. In a few minutes she returned, Jrying her face in her apron and shak ing her wet hair in the sun. No one had come, but King Billy was now awalte and was slouching lazily off to ward the bush. Ellie laughed as she saw him, his great head bent forward ind ills thin, narrow shoulders bowed. She laughed to think of his laziness and that he should look so tired after such a very little wood chopping. She was still laughing at King Billy •s she opened the old workbox to take another peep at the yellow treasure and to make quite sure that the heat hadn't melted it away. And it was quite slowly that the laugh died from her pretty eyes and mouth—quite slow ly because of the moments it took to realize and accept a misfortune so ter rible —when she lifted the coarse socks and looked and saw no little gold nug get, saw nothing. Then horror and great fear grew in the blue eyes, and pale agony crept over the childish face and made it old, and the poor little heart seemed to stop beating. I-fiie said nothing and made no cry. but she closed her eyes tightly for a moment and looked in the box agaiu. No, it was no illusion. The little nug get was not there. The first gold her father had found, which bad been in trusted to her care, which was to have been taken to her mother—it was gone. She put down the box quite quietly and walked out into the day. But the sun was shining very strangely and mistily now, and the blue sky had grown black, and the trees seemed to move weirdly, and the locusts had ceased humming from fear, but tlio strange bird was somewhere near, shrieking brokenly: "What will father say? What will father say?" But as the child stood there despair ing her sight grew clearer, and she saw a black figure among the trees, and she was conscious of a pair of dusky eyes watching her through the leaves. Then only she remembered, and she knew who had done this cruel thing. King Billy! And she had been kind to him. Efiie suddenly burst into passionate sobbing. The black figure still hovered among the trees, often changing its position, and the dusky eyes still peered through the leaves. And the laughing Jackasses flew down to the old tree again and laughed more madly than before—laughed at Effle's trust, at Billy's gratitude! • * It was 10 o'clock, and darkness and quiet reigned in John Archer's hut. Over among the tents behind the wat tle gums a few gamblers and heavy drinkers were still awake, and their voices, raised in anger or ribald mer riment, might occasionally have been faintly heard from the but. But Arch er, who had sown his wild oats, was a true worker, and he had his little daughter, for whose sake he had built the hut away from the noisy camp. Archer had come home late and weary, as usual, had eaten his supper and goue to rest without, to Elße's In tense relief, speaking of the little gold nugget. The child was afraid to speak of the loss, and she was not without vague hopes that a beneficent Provi dence would restore the nugget during the darkness aud save her from this great trouble. For this she prayed very earnestly before she lay down to sleep. Or did she sleep at all that night? She never quite knew. Hut she thinks that it was then that she first experienced that terrible purgatorial condition which is neither wakefulness nor sleep when the body aud utind are weary enough to bring tlie profound sleep which they require, but which the brain Is too overladen and too cruelly active to allow, when dreams seem realities aud realities dreams. It must have been a dream when she saw something small aud yellow float through the tiny window on the ghost ly silver moonbeams. And yet when, having closed her eyes, she opened them again it was still there, hovering about in the darkness, less bright now aud with a pale yellow halo. But it faded quite away. It was a cruel, mocking dream. Then was it a dream when the old curtain which divided her corner of the hut from her father's moved near the ground, bulged slightly toward her? It would be curious to see, and she lay still. From under the curtain seemed to come a thin arm aud slow ly, cautiously, after the arm a head with a great shock of hair. And the moonbeams just touched a face. 1 think they kissed it, though It was black, for they found in a black hand the little yellow object which had floated in the first dream. It was all so real, so beautiful, that the child lay still, scarce darlug to breathe lest the vision should melt away, aud when in her dream came tile voice of her father with the words, "Speak, or I'll fire!" her lips refused to open. But it was no dream when the shot came and the black king rolled over ou the earth dead, with the little gold nugget he had come to restore pressed In the death agony against his heart, where, too, was a little gold. And the laughing birds in the old tree, startled from their sleep by the shot, laughed ouee more, wildly and madly, at Billy's honesty.—Exchange. lliixlcy'n ldenl Church.
