TRACKINC A BISON.
Soon the Tablet Were Turned, and He Wat
Tracking Hit Trackers.
The tracks are quite fresh, drops of
Wood are on the leaves he had brushed
against, and, with both rifles ready, we
get nearer and nearer to him. We are
going up a steep hill now, the jungle
in places is not quite so thick—open
patches here and there. “There he
is!” from Chippani, who has eyes like
a hawk, and a snort and a short crash
above us tell us we are seen. “Shoot!”
Chippani says, and to our cost I do.
With no cover below him, no open
place to meet him, and everything in
the bull’s favor, I ought never to have
tired, as by making a flank march I
could easily have got above him and
in comparative safety.
However, there is not much time to
think of these things, and, as I fire
one barrel of the 10-bore into the
thicket where the bull is standing, he
comes down the hill like a steam en
gine. I give him the other barrel, but
nothing short of instant death would
have stopped him then. I turn to get
behind a friendly tree I had fortu
nately noticed out of the corner of my
eye, about twenty yards off, and in a
second overtake Chippani and Ande
making for the same retreat. A noise
like a runaway steam engine tells me
he is close behind, and he must have
been within three yards when I fell
flat on my face, bringing the two
men behind me on the top of me
as the huge brute goes right
over us at the rate of a thousand miles
an hour, catching my cheekbone with
one foot and treading full on Chippa
ni's thigh with the other. By some
extraordinary chance he escaped hav
ing his leg broken, owing probably to
tbe ground being very soft, and con
sequently bis leg giving way to pres
sure. lamup in a second, rifle gone,
blood pouring from my face, and dash
tor the tree, from behind which I peer
cautiously—or incautiously, I should
say, as there he is, ten yards off, head
up, tail in the air, a splendid sight,
indeed, but that I was not exactly in
the position to admire the beauty of
the situation. He sees me, and with
n snort dashes at the tree. I slip round
it, but he is quicker than I, and I feel
his breath and foam on my neck,
while on the lower side of the tree,
which is on the side of a steep hill, he
just catches me on the ribs with his
horn, and I am hurled into space to
land twenty feet up in the air in a
thicket of dead bamboos, where I lie,
transfixed by thorns like spears, really
thinking my last moment has come.
But no; the side of the steep hill is
too greasy for him to stop when he
has got the pace on, and he disap
pears, while I climb out of the bam
boos, get hold of my rifle, load it, and
count up tbe casualties.
Chippani is lying on the ground
with his thigh nearly ground to pow
der, but Ande comes up smiling and
cujoying the fun immensely. Leaving
Chippani behind a fallen tree with the
brandy flask, Ande and I run along
the ridge to see where the beast had
gene. We can just make out his back
as he walks slowly down the valley,
but as I am beginning to feel faint
and sick I return to Chippani, and we
lie there for an hour, my chief sensa
tion being as if someone had given
me an elaborate thrashing.—Badmin

“ Powder and Patches Again.
Women who are never satisfied with
the color of their hair will no doubt
be glad to learn that powdered hair is
again to be in vogue. Not, of course,
for daily wear, but for dinners and all
manner of dressy functions. The
effect is one that women have always
liked to emulate, and its appearance in
1897, together with a host of other re
vivals, will be hailed with delignt.
Patches are, of course, the natural
accompaniment of powdered hair, and
they have not been forgotten. The wo
man whose white locks are piled coquet
tishly on top of her head plans a
pretty contrast by scattering half a
dozen little black patches over her
cheeks and brow. The effect is still
further helped oulj if she chances to
have dark eyes and eyebrows that are
slender dark curves.
Siglitless Woman Farmer.
There lives in Oak Hill, Texas, a
blind girl who has from a few acres of
land, cultivated by herself, cleared
about S2OO each season for several
years by the growing and sale of
vegetables. She began with no capital
and an unfenced piece of uncultivated
laud. There is now a neat fence about
her domain, a well and pump in the
center, and she has, in addition to
purchasing these, paid for a piano and
hack to take her vegetables to the
market, which is twenty miles from
her home. Every evening during the
dry season she waters a certain num
ber of plants until she has gout over
the entire piece, when she begins and
goes over it again in the same way.
Insect life she detects from her acute
sense of hearing, and grass and weeds
are easily distinguished from plants
by the sensitive fingers of the blind

How Queen Victoria Propose*!^
It may not be peuerally known that
royal etiquette forbids any royal" per
sonage of lesser degree to propose mar
riage to a female sovereign. Accord
ingly it became necessary that Queen
Victoria should ask Prince Albert
whether he would share her lot. For
a young woman this was naturally an
awkward and rather delicate duty, but
the most trying ordeal was ■when the
Queen had to make the announcement
of her wedding to the privy oouueil.
At one time there was a possibility
that the marriage would not take place,
owing to the desire of the Queen that
sho should not be married too early.
Iu 1830 Prince Albert confessed that
he came to England with the intention
of telling his royal sweetheart that if
she could not then make up her mind
she must understand that he could not
wait for a decision as he had done at a
former period, when the marriage was
first talked about. It was at Windsor,
at a ball, that the Queen broached the
subject by giving the Prince certain
flowers from the bouquet she carried,
and her boy lover, understanding the
significance of the gift, and being
tightly buttoned up, from waist' to
throat, in a green rifle uniform, made
a cut in his tunic just above the heart
and put the flowers within it. The
next day the Queen put the critical
question, and the contract was sealed
Erom that moment,—London Tele

Smart Outing: Suits.
Mohairs, alpacas anil brilliati tines,
though not so popular as last season,
are likeil by many women because of
their light, wiry texture and the man
ner in which they shed the dust. The
latest idea in making them follows the
fashion so much liked for etaminek,
canvases and other semi-transparent
materials; that is, the taffeta lining is
made in a slip skirt, and the outside
is attached to it only at the belt. They
are gored in the usual manner, fitting
loosely at the waist, with only a little
fullness in the back and flaring to a
width of four yards at the foot, where
they are finished with a three-inch
hem.
The suits are completed with coats,
blazers or jackets, personal preference
deciding the choice as much as any
thing else, although there is a slight
disposition either to relegate the jack
et to the most negligee of outing cos
tumes, or to reserve it for dressier oc
casions. Coats are of two styles,
tight fitting and very short, with trim
regulation' coat revers and velvet-faced
collar, or half loose in front, fastening
under a fly, and a trifle longer. Blaz
ers are of the same length, but show
more variety in the cut of the fronts
and the shape of the revers. They
sometimes fasten with one button
above the bust, and again not at all;
and are cut with square or rounded
corners, and flare away sharply, or
only enough to disclose the blouse
front. The question of sleeves has
regulated itself by common sense and
artistic taste, and every one should be
satisfied. For all tailor gowns the
modified gigot is the regulation style,
and it is large enough to be becoming
and comfortable, and small enough not
to be intrusive. —Demorest’s Maga
zine.
For the Summer ISulJi.
The daily bath should be always
taken at exactly the same hour. For
summer, in the morning immediately
on rising or in the afternoon just be
fore twilight are the most propitious
times. Never take a bath immediate
ly before eating, and unless directed
to do so by your physician, never
take a hot bath. Never bathe imme
diately before or after undergoing
violent exercise, and remember to
dry the body thoroughly if you have
time, or not at all if you are in a vast
hurry.
Careful persons should make the
temperature of the water about that
of the surrounding air. This is an
excellent preventive against taking
cold, and if the bath is taken after a
long, hot journey or in the morning
after a sleepless night, no greater
tonic can be found than that of poui*-
ing slowly down the back from the
base of the neck to the end of the
spine a pitcher of truly cold but not
icy water. This soothes and stimu
lates the nerves exquisitely. It helps
to redden the lips and cheeks of pale
women, and revives one as does a cup
of strong coffee.
In summer bathing, beware, how
ever, of lying long in the tub if hot
and weary, or of too frequent use of
cologne. To lie still in fresh water
brings about weakness and pallor,
while cologne dabbled often on the
face produces curious fine wrinkles.
When traveling in summer always try
to carry a bottle of pure alcohol and a
sponge. Especially in making long
journeys by rail sponge off as well as
yon can with the alcohol when a good
tabbing is impossible, and when at
sea and sick, take as much of an alco
hol bath every day as you can.
Excessive perspiration can be
checked by using borax in the water,
dabbing it on the sensitive parts, and
letting the air dry off the moistnre, or,
for very moist hands, a spoonful of
pure alcohol rubbed between the
p:rtms with a pinch ok bismuth will
aid iu keeping the skin cool and dry,
or a basin filled with (Sold water and a
spoonful of aromatic ammonia, or toilet
vinegar, applied gently with a sponge
is equally useful. But whatever the
bath, its invariable adjunct in sum
mer must be a little talcum powder.
Violet talcum powder, cooling and
fragrant, comes in small boxes xvith
perforated tops, and those who are
sensitive to heat or dust find it most
refreshing.—American Queen.

Milking Horse* Ettt Slowly.
Many horses, especially if fed grain,
eat it much too fast to get the most
good from it. If they took longer time
to masticate it there would be less
grain voided inf* their excrement. A
good way to compel slow eating is to
mix xvith the grain a feiv clean pebbles,
that will oblige the horse to gather his
food sloxvly. A stilt better xvay is to
grind the grain and mix the meal with
three times its bulk of cut hay,or txviee
its bulk of straxv.

Pad the hoops xvith a bran sack or
some old bits of cloth. Place a strap
muzzle over the nose, secure it to the
first hoop, then turn in the pigs. From
twenty-four to thirty-six hours’ con
finement xvill tame the most obstinate
and depraved soxv.—E. A. Wood, Nexv

Spoiled in the Stnclf.
If the aggregate annual los3 of hay
by being spoiled in stack could be defi
nitely , determined, the long string of
figures required to express the loss
xvould probably astonish the most of
Us. Besides, much of the hay that is
not throxvn out as “spoiled” is dusty
and of loxv x’alue as compared xvith its
condition when stacked. Clox’er is
particularly difficult to keep in good
condition. It should be very carefully
stacked, keeping middle very full, and
covered xvith long grass or other pro
tective material.—Epitomist.
Draught Houses on the Road.
The strength of the draught horse
enables him to make good time for a
short sprint, despite the excess of
weight he carries. But unless on soft
dirt roads fast driving of draught
horses should not be attempted, be
cause the excess of weight makes the
pounding of the horse’s feet on the
hard surface all the more severe. It
is well known that heavy horses are
quite apt to have defective feet. This
we believe to be the cause. Kept to
their appropriate pace on the road
and on the farm draught horses will
live and do good service years after
they are twenty years old. It is ner
vous worry that shortens life, rather
than hard, muscular toil, both in
horses and in men,—The Silver
Knight.
"Working Butter.
The object of working butter is to
get the salt evenly distributed and to
expel a portion of the brine. When it
is worked but once, the butter-maker
thinks it is worked enough, and packs
it immediately. But there is, at that
time, no way to tell whether the salt
has been evenly distributed or not. A
few hours afterwards ho samples the
butter, and finds it mottled, which will
seriously affect the selling price. He
knows the cause is unequal salting,
that the portions which have salt have
changed to a deeper yellow, and the
unsalted portions have remained of a
lighter color. With the next churn
ing he is determined to remedy this,
and be sure to work enough. The
chances are that this time it is worked
too much, so that the grain is injured
and the butter has a greasy appear
ance. But after practice and the exer
cise of good judgment these errors can
be avoided to a great extent, and a
fairly uniform and even product pro
duced.

nail the ends strongly with wire nails.
Shallower boxes than that shown in

when the weather does not permit out
door work, is a good time for making
contrivances like this.—New England

Alfalfa.
A most valuable bulletin of the New
York station is that on alfalfa (No.
118). It gives a full account of the
plant and many additional details as
to method and time of seeding, cut
ting, making hay and ensiling, and
discusses the yields, composition and
feeding value of alfalfa ns compared
with other crops.
Alfalfa being a deeper rooting plant
than are the clovers, is thus better ena
bled to stand drought; and it is a per
ennial, continuing indefinitely when
once established. It stands successive
cutting well, giving four or even five
crops of rich fodder in a single season.
It is admirably adapted to supplement
maize as a soiling crop, ns it is rich in
the nitrogenous elements which maize
lacks. At the station it has been read
ily eaten by stock of all kinds, aiidbas
proven an economical addition to the
rations.
It will grow on a great variety of
soil but will not stand stagnant water
or a water level too near the surface.
Considerable care is required in start
ing a field, as it is essential to secure
a good stand in a mowing crop which
is to last for several years. The ground
should be plowed the fall before, and
fitted well just before sowing the seed
in the spring. Alfalfa has been quite
handy at Geneva, but may not be so
much farther north in the State. In
a favorable year and on rich soil it may
sometimes give one or even txvo good
crops the first season; but usually no
crop need be expected until the sec
ond year. The yield then increases
for three or four years, and may re
main constant for ten j years or more
if weeds and grass do not gain a foot
hold. At the station the averago yield
from five crops of four cuttings each,
xvas over seventeen tons of green fod
der per acre.
A Stack Cover.
Herewith is presented a sketch of a
stack cower which we saw a neighbor
using and afterwards used ourselves
with very satisfactory results, for upon
removing the cover, the hay is found
nice and bright clear up to the boards.
There is usually a little damaged hay
at lower edges of cover, but the loss
here is light.
IIP
HAYSTACK COVES!.
The stack is made in the form of a
rick of any desired length, as several
lengths of boards may be used. It
should be well balanced; tbe bay
should, if possible, he pitched on to
stack from both sides. In topping
out, bring up to sharp ridge and tramp
xvell along centre. In good w eather it
is best to let stand a few days, then
re-top and cover. Cover is made of
hoards Ixl2 inches, ours xvere four
teen feet long. Bevel the edge of one
board and nail it and another together
in the form of a xvell-spread triangle,
using 10d. nails. If not spread suf
ficiently, nail xvell and jump up and
down on top of it. Have au attendant
take one end, you take the other, carry
up on ladders and lay on centre of
stack. Carry another board up in
same manner; or bettefr, have some
one pass it up to you, slip edge under
first board, lapping two inches or less,
and nail. Now move around to op
posite Bide of stack, put one iJp there,
and so on till roof is wide as you xvant
it. Pass wires over top and weight
down heavily with rocks. Don’t leaTO
it any time without xveighting, for the
wind can remove a roof of this kind in
much less time than it took to put it
on. Watch the stack closely and don’t
let it get started tipping, for if it does,
the weight on top will pull it over
rapidly.—The Epitomist.
Farm anil Garden Holes.
Do not allow chaff to accumulate in
the bottom of the manger. It becomes
musty and sour, and bad for the
horse.
The horses ought to have a little
salt with their feed once every day.
This is a great deal better than a
larger quantity once ft week.
Don’t yell at your horses, and do
not have a man on your place who
can’t control his temper when handling
animals. Horses are highly sensitive,
and the best results can only be ob
tained from them when their nervoUs
system is respected.
Many orchardijsts have mistaken the
common oyster shell bark-louse for the
pernicious scale. The scale of the
bark-louse, under which the eggs are
protected during winter, is spray proof,
the opportunity for successful attack
being in spring, after the eggs hatch.
Kerosene emulsion is the ammunition
to use against these minute sap-suqk
ers.
A good milch cow has broad hind
quarters and thin forequarters, thin
and deep neck, pointed withers, head
pointed between the horns, flat anij
flue boned legs and fine hair. Choose
one "with udders well forward, wide
apart and large enough to he easily
grasped. A medium-sized cow will
give more milk in proportion to the
feed she eats.
In most farm gardens it will be the
easiest possible matter to raise a
luxuriant second crop. t The way to pro
ceed is to let the ground severely alone
after early crops are gathered and the
weeds will “volunteer” to produce an
immense crop of seed. Of course you
will have to work like a Turk next
year in order to keep them down; but
that’s another thing.
Potash is the mineral that is most
needed for the potato crop. But it is
much better distributed as atop dress
ing over the whole surface than ap
plied with the seed potatoes in the
hill. The potato roots very early in
its growth and fills the soil between
the rows. When mineral manures are
plied in the hill, unless care is taken
to mix them thoroughly with the soil,
they may eat into the cut seed, and
effectually destroy the germ. When
used broadcast on the surface there is
no danger of this.
Some farmers have all confidence in
the uprightness of their own particu
lar bull, and let him accompany the
cows to the pasture, whence all are
driven up together at night by the
children. Some men follow' this plan
too long, to their lasting regret. Bulls
that are known to be vicious seldom
hurt anybody, because they do not get
a chance to do so. All valuable bulls
are vicious at tinges. Tie or pen the
bull in a comfortable place; make all
secure, and you will know better
where he and yourself “are at.”
It is not difficult to read a horse’s
character from his face. The tractable
animal is broad and flat between the
eyes; the bony ridge of his face dishes
slightly from the point where - the face
narrows towards the nostrils. His
ears are well set, sensitive and fqr
apart, with a well-defined ridge of
bone extending across the top of the
head between them. Always look for
this ridge in judging a horse. The
eye should be large, clear and bright,
with a prominent ridge of bone along
the inner and upper ridge of the
socket. _.a:
Pistols and Pestles.
The duelling pistol now oocupies its proper
place, in the museum of the collector of relics
of barbarism. The pistol ought to have beside
it the pestle that turned out pills like bullets,
to be shot like bullets at the target of the
liver. But the pestle is still in evidence, and
will be, probably, until everybody has tested
the virtue of Ayer’s sugar coated pills. They
treat the liver as a friend, nolens an enemy.
Instead of driving it, they coax it. They are
compounded on the theory that the liver does
its work thoroughly and faithfully under
obstructing conditions, and if the obstructions
are removed, the liver will do its daily duty.
When your liver wants help, get "the pill
that will,”
Ayer’s Cathartic Pills.
The Jews in Palestine.
The Rev. J. Hertzfteld, a converted
Jexvisli rabbi, says that there are now
three times as many Jews in Palestine
as returned xvith Ezra and Neheiniab.
“The Jews,” he says, “will soon erect a
temple in Jerusalem, and will estab
lish the sacrifices of old. I received
a letter from my home a short time
ago, in xvhich they tell me of a meet
ing xvith an English lady xvho xvas
studying art and sculpture in Milan.
She said that xxdiile in Milan she en
tered one of the largest xvorkshops,
and saxv there a magnificent pillar.
She asked them about it, and they told
her that it was for the nexv temple of
Jerusalem. In Rome she also saxv an
other pillar xvhich xvas being finished
for the temple. It may be possible
that some of the influential Jews are
quietly preparing for the erection of
this temple. The time is fast approach

A Crying Need.
“What this city needs,” said the
man in the golf suit, “is a laxv that
xvill require pedestrians to take les
sons in xx’alking. ”
“For xvhat reason?” demanded the
youth in the tennis suit.
“Oh, they take up too much room
noxx',” explained the man in the golf
suit. “We can’t tell just where we
will find them next, either. They
wabble too much. If they xvould
stick to a straight line they xvouldn’t
bother us so much xvhen xve take to
the sidexvalk for a block or two to
avoid a muddy street. In the ideal
community pedestrians xvill bo trained
to walk on the curbstone, so ■ that bi
cyclists can have both the street and
the sidexvalk.” —Chicago Post.

A Russian loc Breaker.
A gentleman in Vladivostock, Siberia,
quoted in The Boston Transcript, thus
describes the new iee breaker Hope
that the Russian government has sent
there: “Imagine to yourself a Dutch
wooden shoe rigged out with two masts
and an enormous funnel, and there
you have her shape. She was built
in Copenhagen, and contracts to smash
six feet of ice without winking. If the
old ice breaker Selatch had one foot of
ice to contend with she was usually
the party that got smashed. She is of
300 tons and was built for a revenue
cutter. The Hope is of 3,000 tons and
was built for business. Her method
of procedure is, first to ram the ice; if
it does not break she then gets up and
sits down on it; and if it still holds its
own, water is pumped into a tank in
her bows until she is so heavy that the
ice has to break whether it wants to or
not.”

tQ,uitman,Tex., writes: After
12 years’ Buffering from
Dyspepsia and Sick Head
ache I was cured by Dr*
IYI. A. Simmons Liver
Medicine. It cured my
Husband of Constipation,
our little Girl of Nervous
ness, and our Son of Ca
tarrh of the Bowels. It
cured Mrs, Newman of
Rainful Menstruation,
and carried Mrs. Fields
safely through Change of Life. It perfect
ly regulates the Liver, Stomach and
Bowels, and leaves no bad effects, while
both “Black Draught” and “Zeilin’s Liver
Regulator’’ did not leave my bowels in such
good condition. I found more of it in the
Package, and it only required half the quan
tity for a dose, and I had rather pay 25 cts.
per Package for it than use “Zeilin’s” or
‘‘ttlack Draught” as a free gift.
Bad Taste in the Mouth.
Digestion is the grand process by which
nature repairs the wasted tissues of the
body, which, when the individual is in
health is performed with great faithfulness
and regularity, and without giving rise to
any disagreeable sensatiors.
Indigestion is a disease which consists of a
deviation from this ordinary mode of health
and in the deficiency or vitiated character of
those secretions which aro essential to the
conversion of food into blood. The bestcor
rective for thiscomplaint is Dr. M. A. Sim
monn Liver Medicine a few doses OtWbICU
Will remove thB offensive taste.
§ Randolph, Ky., writes: I
will never be without Dr.
M. A. Simmons Liver
Medicine. It cured me of
Chronic Constipation
and Torpidity of Liver
after6everal Physiciansand
many Patent Medicines had
failed. I took throe times

and It had but little effect
on me, and I don't thiukit

Backaches Common (o Mothers.
The busy mother sometimes feels an In*
ability to perform her accustomed dnties.
She fools inactive, weary and depressed.
Her back, oh, how it aches! When she sits
down she feels as though she must get right
np, and when she stands, that she most sit
down. The truth is, the capacity of her ner
vous system has been overworked, it has
become exhausted and there is a breaking
down. What she needs is a course of Dr.
Simmons Squaw Vino Wine to restore
healthy functional activity and give tone
and vitality to her nervous system.
