To make it two poles were cut about sixteen feet long. Hetween the poles, placed three or four feet apart, slats were nailed as in a ladder, leaving four feet at each end of the poles bare. Augur holes were bored in the top of the poles and saplings were bent in the form of wagon bows reaching from one pole to the other. Over this tent canvas was tirown to afford the wounded ‘man: shelter; - On top of ‘the slats was placed u mattress composed of blankets. At the end of the poles, whers the sluts were left off, straps were attached which were designed (o be suspended across the back of a mule. The man was placed upon the litter with his feet forward, and bis head below the canvas directly under the dead of the rear mule. “When 1 was being carried from the fight In one of these litters the horse flies were bad and one of them had persistently | bothered the surgeon's horse. Finally it | lighted on the rear litter mule and the | doctor struck at it with his whip. Th mule jumped backward while the forward mule walked on. The result was that the head of the litter fell to the ground. This scared the forward mule and it ran awa dragging the litter 1 hundred across the prairie, until the troopers could | capture ft Internal hemorrhage was in duced by the fall, and when the surgeon got to me he thought my chance for recover slim, But I got well and as sound as a dollar."” The general looked at the map and sald slowly: “Yes, It was right over thls sam ground where I made my last campalgi on the soll of the United States as an ofh cer in the United States army.” “When I was prostrated with grip and my heart and nerves were in bad shape, Dr. Mi'es' Nervine and Heart Cure gav me new life and health.”"—Mrs. Geo.

That event took place many years ago, when a famously rich, haudsome, amluble and enlightened young Indian prince visited Queen Victoria. His gorgeous jewels, his charming manners and his excellent pro- nunclation of the English language created a great sensation on his appearance first at garden party given at Buckingham palace. He was then introduced to Princess Victoria. The young East Indlan found her royal highness most attractive and when he went to pay a visit to Sandringham he shortly found that the princess was by no means indifferent to nis admiration, that person- ally she was quite willlng to make India ber home and privately her lover asked her hand in marriage.

The voluminous character | of tho literature which was already in existence some six centuries before the Christian era and has run on uninterrupt edly until the present may well have glven pause to writers aiming at compleie nese. The foreign student, however, is on totally different footing. It may be said without offense that a work which would be inadequate to the requirements of a native public may properly be submitted to English readers as an introduction into the great fleld which lies beyond. The author has devoted a large portion of his book to translation, thus enabling the Chinese author, so far as translation will allow, to speak for himself. He has also added, here and there, remarks by native critics, that the reader way be able to form an idea of the point of view from which the Chinese judge thelr own productions. Students of literature, as well as all readers having | an fnterest in the literary productions of a forelgn people, will find it a most enter- taining aud instructive volume. The author has succeeded most happily in giving | a general view of the most extensive literature possessed by any people in th world and a literature that is comparatively unknown to western nations, The readers of this volume who have, possibly, been | laboring under the delusion that the Chinese are a barbarous people, will be sur- prised to learn many beauties und refine- ments of their literature.
