"They have set his right leg and his arm, but his left leg will have to be amputated near the hip. A silence fell over them. A sort of awed silence it was, at thought of all it meant. And it was the same man who stood In their midst but three days before, powerful of muscle, with cords like an oak, vowing vengeance upon this young man who had saved his life.

It makes little difference whether the water or chop is given first, provided water is given as frequently as it should be, so that a very large quantity is not taken at once. Chop should not be given in its pure state, but be mixed with a more bulky food, so that It will be returned to the mouth for mastication. In the watering of stock the animals themselves are the best Judges, and they should be allowed to drink when disposed. Where no succulent food, such as roots or ensilage, is given, a drink should be allowed before feed, then coarse fodder, such as hay, followed by the chop, mixed with cut hay or chaff. If succulent food Is given, the animals will not require water until two or three hours after they are through feeding. It is well to allow them all the water they wish at least three times daily, if all the food Is dry, and If roots are fed they should drink once or twice dally, according to the quantity of roots given. strength and deftness of muscle These are typical examples.

Traveler Describes Curious People of North Africa. The masked Tawareks, a North African tribe, have long been an object of curiosity and interest to scholars and travelers, but in spite of the researches into their origin and language, many problems remain to be solved. Mr, Ilardlng King recently spent a good deal of time among them, Journeying about GOO miles into their country. One thing is certain about the race, which is that they have made their name a terror among the peoples who live on the borders of their country. They never come near civilized people if they can help It, and only approach caravans belonging to other tribes in order to plunder them and kill their owners.' They have one feature which distinguishes them from their neighbors, the men keep their faces covered with a mask and hide their features by these means even from the members of their- - own Mr. family. King found that these people were filthy dirty, for no true Tawarek ever washes. Such ablutions as are necessary for tellglous purposes are performed with sand or stone; occasionally, with the view of improving his appearance, he rubs himself with Indigo. His hosts all had thick, purring voices, a shifty manner, and large, lustrous, furtive eyes. OBEYED DOCTOR TOO WELL. New Yorker Took Queer Measures to Get Rid of Fat.
