I SHEEP AND Tht KttJ PLUTE Herder* of P£iesti..e have Accu* tomed Their Ai .r. ala tc. tne Sound of Vveiru Music. The pastoiui iite of the i'alettUie peasant has always been a subject of liiteiest anil a pleasant study.

"When heavy storms of snow or rain come on the shelter or tome cave has to be sought and a caroiul watch against tne attacks of wad animals kept. This watchfulness is not relaxed on a line day, and the long ..ours on the hillsides or plains are whiled away In making music on the reed liute, or which every shepherd is the maker and player. The music is an assurance to the sheep that the shepherd is oil the alen; let tile music cease for any length of time and the flock will stop grazing and look around lor their care taker and leader. At night the sheep are folded around the* village or camp in which they belong. The fold is a large inclosure, the wall of which is made up of good sized stones piled one on another. There is only one entrance, which is narrow, for the sheep as they enter have to "pass under the rod" so that the owner may count them and see that none are missing. To find good pasture and a quiet resting place is tlie daily duty of the shepherd, and in tlie long suninier days Hie (lock rests during the heat by some stream or under the shadow of a great rock. Each sheep has its name, !u which it will respond on be ing called hy its keeper. In southern Palestine the Hocks are tended by girls and women, hut in other parts hy youths and men. Sunday at Home. Sirius the Master Sun? Astronomers once believed that the entire starry universe revolved around a renter of attraction and thq star named Alcyone, in the group of (lie Pleiades, was selected hy Maedler as marking that great (Miter. It has long been known, however, that Maed ler's conclusion, which was based on (lie apparent motions of tlie stars, was incorrect and if any universal center exists it lias not yet been discovered. In fact, many of (lie stars seem to be moving in straight lines, some in one direction and some in another; and among these is our own sun. But it is possible that further observations will show that all (lie stars are really moving in curved lines. In the mean time it lias been found that there are certain groups or sets of stars which appear to travel together. To what set. if any, the sun belongs, we do not yet know, hut Delauney has presented reasons for thinking that those stars whose distances have been measured l that is to say, those which are near est to usi, group themselves around Sirius, the dog star, in a manner simi lar to that in which the inner planets are grouped around the sun. If ihis be correct, Sirius may possibly lie (tie master sun of which our orb of day is a distant satellite. Harper's Weekly. Microbe Causes Lockjaw. Lockjaw, known to medical men as tetanus, is one of those terrible mal adies which occasion great suffering and baffle the best attempts of the profession to successfully treat them. Commencing with stiffness of the jaw muscles, tetanus quickly goes on to produce violent convulsions, which utterly exhaust Its victim’s strength, while preventing him from taking food, owing to his being unable to open liis mouth; hence its more popu lar designation of "lockjaw.” investi gations have shown that this dreadful disease is due to a microbe which commonly exists In ordinary soil and the surface mud of tlie streets, which habitat explains the reason why tet anus frequently attacks persons who have been injured in street accidents and had their wounds contaminated with refuse and dust from the road way. Although no certain cure for tetanus is yet known, progress is be ing made with injections of “anti tetanic serum." The Father of Waters. It was In the year 1519- 120 years before the Mayflower reached Plym outh rock that the Mississippi was first seen by the eyes of a white man. Proof was already at hand that Flor ida was not an island, for in 1519 Al varez de Pineda had followed that coast as fnr as the site of Tampico in Mexico, where he found Cortez and his men. Pineda then turned back and after a while entered the mouth of the Mississippi, which he called Kio de Santa Espiritu. lie seems to have been the first European to sail upon this great river. How far lie ascended it is not clear, but he spent six weeks upon its banks trading with the Indian*.— .lolm Fiske. Breaking the News. The widow—Wouldn't you like me to read your palm?

Cured ot severe compound cold and cough by ytnbl * “From Dec. 20, ’08, to March I, ’09, 1 had three had colds, one on top of the other. I got so weak ! could hardly get around. Nothing seemed to help me until I began to take Vinol. The change was magic. Three bottles com pletely fixed that compound cold and stopped the terrible cough—and what surprises ine most, at the same time It cured me of a severe stomach trouble that has bothered me for 20 years. Vlnol is certainly a wonderful medicine. Mr.Toppan is one of Lynn’s most prominent and highly respected merchants, whose word is as good as his bond. * The reason Yinol is so successful in such cases is because it contains the two most world-famed tonics—the medicinal, strength ening, body-building elements of Cod Liver Oil and Tonic Iron.
