How It Astaya.

to the waiter, as he sat down at one ot
the tables at a Main street restaurant.
“You see we drifted on the foot-wall

“Look here! Do you want anything

“Can’t a fellow show his specimens
if he wants to?”
“But he’s not supposed to soil the
table cloth with nasty mud and rock.”
“Xow, ‘mud’ pard, hold up. How

the poor creature died there of her

she found comfort in her last sufferings
and under the pain of such a parting
from the recollection that she had

culiarly-shaped lamp, which has
small llame. The opium pipe is made
of a piece of mahoganv or ebony wood.
wJ lie stem isjibout three-quarters of ai
inch in diameter, and about fwo feet in
length.- A hole about half an inch
“diameter, runs the whole length of the
stem. About six inches from the eud
of tfie stem is the bowl of the pipe. It
is made of a peculiar kind of sand and
clay in China, and is very hard and
fire-proof. The bowl is about two
inches iu diameter. The top of the
hole is entirely closed, except a small
hole fn the center, about the size of a
11rgc darning needle. Iff the bottom
is a hole about an inch id diameter into
which is inserted a brass coupling, cou-
necting the stem of the pipe. Tim
opium is kept in a small box uiade of
horn. When a person desires to smoke
opium he reclines upon the table, upon
one side. With a-piece of steel about
th e length and size of a large knitting-
needle, and sharp-pointed, a little of
he opium is taken from the box. It
is held over the blaze'of the lamp until
it is thoroughly eooketjl. The piece, of
steel is kept in .motion,tfil the time and
the opium, when copkeU; 4 formed
into the shape of a small pistol car
tridge. The point of the steel needle
is then iuserted into the small hole in
the center of the bowl of the pipe and
gently drawn through the cartridge of
opium. The smoker then turns the
bowl of the pipe to the flame of the
lamp, reposes upon a wooden pillow
and smokes. He Fently draws his
breath in long and rapid respirations.
He must be careful, however, to slight
ly remove his lips from the stem of the
pipe wheu taking breath. If he should
breathe slightly into the stem it stops
tbe flow of the smoke of the opium.
When the flow is stopped the sharp-
pointed steel is used to open the small
hole in the bowl of the pipe. It-takes
about three minutes to prepare the
opium lor the pipe, and about one to
smoke it out, ten or twelve whiffs only
being required. From six to twelve

Training Steers —The following
method of training steers to work wilt
be found to be a good one: First, have
a yard so well and thoroughly fenced
that they cannot run faraway from you
—not so fat but that you are close by
their side all the time. Get your steers
in the yard and begin with familiariz
ing them to your presence, start them
around you, they doing the traveling
and you looking on, talking mildly to
ihem and motioning as you want them
to learn. Control vour" voice. There
is no brute so low iu the scale of intel
ligence as not to be able n> read an
angry or excited voice. So long as you
ktep the voice calm, you may have the
mastery—allow yourselt to become ex
cited or adopt the screaming method,
and you have lost a p iriiou of your
control over them—that is all gained
by controlling yourself. A day’s rime
111 a small yard with a yoke of steers is
well spent thus, and by ui^hr they will
have learned that you require certain
things of them, as walking forward at
your beck, etc. They may generally
yoked the first day and unyoked sev-
eial times. This will accustom them
to being handled. Aboveall.be patient.
If you discover that they cannot under
stand you when'you talk to them, you
should remember the greater difficulty
for them to unde»>tand what is wanted,
etc. When they obey the motion ol
the hand and stop and start at the word
you may drive them where you will

your reason in teaching well. When

Store-Room and Stores.—A clean,
tidy, well-arranged store-room Is one
sign of a good methodical housekeeper.
When stores are put away at hap-haz-
ards and taken eut at any time and at
any quantity, disorder and extrava
gance prevail. A store-room ought to
be large, airy, cool and dry. Such a
room is not always to be had, but even
if a closet has to be put up with, it may
be kept clean. Shelves should be
ranged around the walls, hooks fas
tened to the edges of the shelves. The
driest and coolest parts of the room
should be kept for jams, jellies and
piekles. All the jars should be dis
tinctly labelled at the front, so that
they will not all have to be taken down
every time a particular jar is wanted.
Biscuits or cakes should be kept in
closely-covered tin boxes; lemons
should be hung in nets. Soap should
be bought in large quantities, and cut
up in convenient-sized pieces, so that
it may be dry before it is used. Coffee,
wheu roasted, snould be kept in small
quantities; if unroasted, it will improve
with keeping. Stores on no account
.should be left in the papers in which
they were sent from the grocer’s, but
should be put into tin cannisters or
earthen jars closely covered, and each
jar, i ke the jam, should be labelled.
Stores should be given out regularly,
either dailv or weeklv. In order to

Simple Life-Saving Medium.—Most
men, in disasters at sea, have at com
mand a means of keeping themselves
atloat which can be extemporized in a
minute. It is simply this: Spread a
handkerchief on the deck of the vessel,
place a hat in the centre ot it, mouth
upwards, lift the opposite corners of
Handkerchief and knot very firmly.
Grasp the knots tightly in the left baud,
and leap into the water, keeping the
ha’t under the surface. This provides
a floating pow er of lrom five to six
pounds with lull bats, atid say halt that
with felt hats, vvlii«*h is ample to sup
port the head and shoulders above the
water for a considerable time.
Asparagus Omelet.—Boil a good

let it get cold; cut off the green part

with a tablespoonfui of butter melted

the mixture. Shake from the bottom

with a broad knife. Fold over in the

A man and his wife will meet a yonng ton Ala. wiitea to Mecsra. P. heusiaedter &
lady at a social gathering. The hus- "
band will have much to say to her and
she will have much to say |o him,
whereas the wife will scarcely look at
her. Going home, husband says.
“Quite an agreeable young lady that
Miss Smith ; rather good-looking, teo.”
Now mark the superior acumen of the
softer sex: “H’in! young lady with
headful of gray hairs and a mouthful ot
false teeth! A very young lady,
should say. If you could see anything
agreeable in her you could see more
than 1 could; that’s all I’ve got to say!”
Now, he never noticed either the false
teeth or the gray bair. Strange how
much sharper a woman’s eyes are than
a man’s—especially under certain cir
cumstances.
Another Channel. — A Sunday
school teacher lias a boy in her clas*
who has not failed iu his penny contri
bution for more than a year, and when
lie was found empty-handed last Sab
bath the teacher observed:
“ Why, Johnny, did.you forget your
penny to-day?”
“No, ma’am,” he humbly replied,
“ bui father saysthe Wabash Road will
do thi§ low 11 more good than any four
teen Sunday schools, and I’m going to
chuck iny coppers into that enterprise
for the next lew weeks.”
“ Won’t the heathen miss your pen

“ I ’spoee they will, hut we’ve all
got to come right down or this town is
busted.”
A five-year-old girl when Informed
of the death of her grandfather the

“ You dou’t know how bad I do leel. it

It seems as though my heart would
break. 1 wonder if it makes granina
aud mamma cry so.” And in reply to
a question of her three-year-old sister,
“What made him die?” the little pet
replied : “ He couldn’t help it; ” and to
her father she says:
little to realize it. She don’t seem to
know what it is as I do.
A rural individual, sauntering up

charge to take me thar?” First hack-
man: “It’s five mile, and I’ll carry

puzzled stranger was slowly scratch

A young lady says she has seen in
the papers that goats eat old fruit cans,
wire clothes lines, barrel staves, hoop
iron, defunct coal scuttles, old boots,
broken bottles and grind stones, and
she a9ks if it is really true that these
animals subsist 011 such a diet? It is
not true. The bill of fare is slightly
exa £g er ated. A goat will not ear
boots as long as there aie any old
hoop-skirrs about the premises, and
their line of food must be drawrn at
broken bottles. Probably if a goat was
buried eight days in a coal mine, witli
no food save a lor of broken bottlos, he
would devour them before he would
undertake to eat through a solid vein
of coal seventy-five feet thick, but it is
extremely doubtful.
Eaten by Worms.
Mr. Samuel Myers is now lying bed
fast at his home in Dallas, Texas, af
flicted with that terrible malady, the
screw worm. Mr. Meyers has been
sickof late with fever, aud while rest
ing in bed, one of the flies alighted near
his nostrils. It requires but a tew mo
ments for one of these flies to deposit
hundreds of eggs, which are hatched
and are grown inside of an hour, many
of them as much as one-half inch in
length. Mr. M°vers upon awakening
felt a slight tickling in the nose, and it
was not until Ills eyes and face had be
come fearfully swollen that the physi
cian discovered the presence of the
worms. The only known remedy was
applied—calomel hnd carbolic acid—by
injection into the nostrils. At first
they w ould drop their hold and force
theinselve» out. Application after ap
plication was made with like results
until 152 were passed. The patient is
in a critical condition, with but slight
hopes of his recovery. The fly is much
dreaded by our stockmen, and is repre
sented as a dark-colored and fuzzy in
sect which generally attacks cattle or
any other animal that is unfortunate
enough to have blood upon which they
can alight.

so with things. Every article placed
