You’ll not need to regulate your cooking
by the thermometer when you get a
Wickless Blue Flame Oil Stove. On the
hottest days you can cook whatever you
choose, in whatever way you wish, with
out suffering any additional discomfort
while cooking, The comfort you’ll gain
is only one of the advantages of using a
Wickless Oil Stove
It is handier than a coal stove and cleaner and cheaper. The Wickless Blue
i-larae Oil Stove is absolutely safe; it burns ordinary kerosene, without wicks
and causes neither smoke, smell nor soot.

A HOBO ON A TRAIN.
His Brier Interview Witli a Brnke-
nmiL nntl tlie Conductor.
“I spent several hours in a small
country' town not far from here a few
days ago,” said a young professional
man of this city, “and to kill time I
joined the usual group iu tlie corner
grocery store. Oue of the crowd was
a freight brakeman, and he told a
story* about a tramp who was stealing
a ride on the bumpers during his last
run.
“ ‘The conductor seen him first,’ he
said, ‘and when he came back to the
caboose he said, says he: “Bill, there’s
a blamed ugly lookiu hobo on tlie
trucks beliiud tlie first car. Suppose
you go up and fire him off.” "All
right, cap,” says I, and starts front.
When I gets to the lirst car, I looks
down, and, sure enough, there was a
big, greasy hobo squattin ou tlie
edge, lioldiu ou to tlie brake iron. “Ili,
there!” says I, “what d’you mean by
tryin to beat the road? We’re goin
slow now, aud you hop right off!” The
hobo reached around into his pocket
and pulled out a gun about a yard long.
When he pointed it at me, it looked
like a piece of stovepipe. “You freckle
nosed baboon,” says he, “if you don’t
go ’bout your business real sudden. I’ll
cave your face Ini- Skip!” says he. I
skipped.
“ ’When I got hack to the caboose,
the conductor says, “Well, Bill, did you
fire the hobo?" “No,” says I, “I didn’t
In chattin with him,” t says, “I found
out we was kin, and I didn’t really
have the heart to bounce the poor fel
ler!” “Well, I’ll do it myself, then!"
says the conductor, gettin hot, aud
away he goes over the tops. Pretty
soon I could hear him comin back
lickety split, on a dead run. He slid
down the brake iron like a streak of
greased liglitnin and dropped into
the caboose seat all out of breath.
“Did you fire him?” says I. “No,” says
he, sort of faint. “Why, how was
that?” says I, pretendin to be surpris
ed. “Well, I’ll tell you,” says he, con
fidential. “It’s funny, but, d’you know,
when "we got to talkin, I found out he
was some kin to me too. —Chicago

A FISH-CATCHING FISH.
n e lias a Month One-third the Size
of Ills Body.
Most remarkable of strange fishes is
the angler fish, whose very name seems
a paradox. . The fishing fish is never
theless a reality and a stern one to all
that approach those awful jaws of his.
•With a body the color of mud he gen
erally lies in the shadow of some rock
ou the bottom of the sea, waiting mo
tionless for the approach of his prey.
He is provided with an odd kind of fin
just over, tlie mouth, and this is held
out in front of him to give warning of
the coming. of something to be swal
lowed. One taken alive .was experi
mented on, and it was found that if
this projecting fin wa.s touched with a
stick, .even though the stick did not
come near the mouth, the jaws closed
convulsively. This shows that the fin,
by some provision of nature, closes the
jaws as soon as It is touched.
The mouth Is tremendous, growing
to the width of a foot when the whole
fish is only three feet long. One of
these anglers was caught not long
since, and, though it was only 25 inches
long, a fish 15 inches long was found
sticking in its throat. The angler is
provided with peculiar teeth set in
double or treble rows along the jaws
and at the entrance of the throat.
Some of these teeth are a foot long.
He Is not a pretty fish to look at, but
he attends strictly to business and will
swallow anything that touches his
warning fin, whether-it is meant for
food or not.
All kinds of things have been found
in the stomachs of anglers, from bits
of lead and stone to fish almost as large
as tlie angler itself. This is without
doubt one of the most peculiar and in
teresting fish in the whole ocean.—St.

A DEAL IN WHISKY.
The Profits Were Not So Lame us
tile lluycrs Erocotcd.
“There are tricks in tlie whisky busi
ness as well as iu others,” said the
drummer for a large compounding
house, "aud I remember once how the
linn I was witli got stuck. Oue day a
man drove up in a oue horse wagon
carrying one barrel of whisky, which
he wanted to sell. lie told us sorno
kind of a story about an old uncle dy
ing anil leaving it to him; hut, as he
couldn’t afford to use as good liquor ti‘
it was. he had concluded to sell it.
“We took tile barrel into tlie house,
and, prying out tlie bung, we slipped iu
the siphon and drew off a glass of it to
sample. And it was line. The barrel
showed age. and the liquor tasted it.
It was worth $10 a gallon if it was
worth a cent, lint we didn’t give the
1 man any sueii pointers. "We knew by
the weight that there were at least 40
gallons of it, and we made him an of
fer of $150 for the barrel. lie higgled
awhile, hut took the money at last and
drove away.
“In the course of a couple of weeks
we concluded to put that whisky in
bottles and sell it as case goods, so we
set the siplion to work at the bung and
began to draw it off. After the fourth
bottle had been drawn the siphon re
fused to work, and we examined it to
find what was wrong. We could not
get at it that way, and, as the contents
seemed to be all right, we set tho bar
rel on end and bored another hole in i*.
Then the siphon worked, but the liquor
was much paler, and one of the men
tasted It P.y George, it wasn’t whisky
at all! It was only water, colored
somewhat from tlie charred inside of
the barrel.
“That seared us. and we smashed the
head in to see what was inside, and we
saw in a minute. The wily enss had
filled a can with fine old whisky to tlie
bung where we made the examination
before purchasing, and when that had
been emptied the whole story had been
told. He bad probably paid $S for the
gallon to fill the can, and wo sold it for
$2.50 a bottle, but we didn't get
blamed cent for the 30 gallons, more or
less, of water that filled the rest of the
barrel.”—Washington Star.

Tamalmc eventually came to desig
nate the “war hatc-het” of the Indian,
supplied by the military commanders
of* tlie whole continent in equipping the
warriors on tlie many expeditions in
which French and English were con
stantly engaged, and was furnished
tlie Indian allies of the English in our
war of independence.
This weapon.was either in tho form
of a spear or hatchet blade on one side,
uhile upon the opposite side there was
a eupiike cavity, with a small hole ex
tending into the eye of the weapon, in
to which a tough handle of wood was
fitted IS Inches or two feet in length.
The handle was perforated almost its
entire length, and below the hollow of
tlie bowl it was bored at right angles
to tills perforation, a suitable stemhole
for the passage of the tobacco smoke
when the implement was in use as a
pipe.
The tomahawk pipe was not only at
tractive and popular in trade, but, like
the earlier trade pipe, was given as a
present at councils and ratifications of
treaties. It was a pipe, a hatchet and
a mace or hammer all in one and an
swered an important military require
ment in lessening the weight and in
cumbrance of the warrior, who other
wise would have tenaciously held to
tlie stone pipe, which in itself was
heavier than the tomahawk. — Smith

DOWN WITH A PARACHUTE.
Gcn-
A Circus Balloon Man Says It’
tic uud Not Hazardous.
“Coming down from the clouds in a
parachute is like a dream,” said a cir
cus balloon artist. "Ever dream of
falling from a high place? You come
down, alight quietly aud awake, aud
you’re not hurt. Well, that’s the para
chute drop over again. No; there is no
danger. A parachute can he guided
readily on the down trip, but you can’t
steer a balloon. To guide a parachute
out of harm’s way a practiced hand
can tilt it oue way or the other, spill
out air and thus work it to where you
want to land or to avoid water, trees,
chimneys or church spires. Circus as
censions nre generally made in the
evening. When the sun goes down, the
wind goes down. The balloon then
shoots into the air, and the parachute
drops back on tlie circus lot or not far
away. A balloon is made of 4 per cent
muslin and weighs about 500 pounds.
A parachute is made of 8 cent muslin.
“There is much more danger is com
ing down in a balloon. When it strikes
the earth, it’s like a big hall and
bounds up again, taking you with it
Not long ago iu McKeesport, Ta., I
came down in a balloon because the
parachute would not let go. I nearly
c-ame down iu a big stack of a blast
furnace, but the hot air drove the bal
loon away. After that I never intrust
ed the parachute arrangqjnent to any
one, but attended to It myself.
“The rope that secures the parachute
is cut with a knife. The aeronaut
drops fully 100 feet before the para
chute begins to fill. It must fill if
you’re up high enough. There are sev
eral hundred parachute men in the
business, and the accidents are less in
ratio than railroad casualties. A man
can’t shake out a parachute if it don’t
open. A man in the air is simply pow
erless. Invariably the fall is head first
When the parachute begins to fill, the
descent is less rapid, and finally when
the parachute has gradually filled it
bulges out with a pop. Then the aero
naut climbs on to his trapeze and
guides the parachute to a safe landing.
In seven cases out of ten you can land
back on the lot where you started from.
The first performers must have had
nerve to make the drop. Now it is a
regular business, not considered haz
ardous at all. The hardest work is to
bring back the balloon with a wagon.
Sometimes it tears in the trees or
wherever it may land when not in the
open.”—New York Sun.
COLT’S INVENTION.
Tbe First Great Improvement Made
In Rcpcutine: Pistols.
In this day of improved firearms the
fact that the first great improvement
made iu repeating pistols by Colonel
Samuel Colt was patented in the day
of our grandfathers is seldom recalled.
It was Colonel Colt, then of New York,
to whom was granted the patent, Feb.
25. 1836. The original petition in the
case was destroyed by the fire in De
cember following. The letters patent
were returned when application was
made for the reissue, Sept. 1, 1848. The
original letters are signed by Andrew
Jackson, president; John Forsyth, sec
retary of state, and Benjamin F. But
ler, attorney general.
After describing his invention Colo
nel Colt claims as new “the application
of caps at the end of the cylinder, the
application of a partition between the
caps, the application of a shoulder over
the caps as a security against moisture
and the action of smoke upon the
works of the locks, the principle of tlie
connecting rod between the hammer
and the trigger, the application of the
shackle to connect the cylinder with
the ratchet,” etc.
. There had been a revolver patented
about 20 years before by one Collin,
but until Colt’s invention little head
way was made. Indeed it was not un
til Colt’s invention had been given a
trial by Major Sam Walker and his
Texas rangers that it gained popular
ity and was • regarded as a success.
About the time Colonel Colt was ap
plying for a reissue, iu 1S48. Mr. Wes
son had filed an application for n re
peating firearm, by which tlie Smith &
Wesson pistol of today is represented.
