Miles--Senator “Billy” Ma son’s lun--Scientists Recreation. From our regular c*orre*porteUnt. Washington, J). C., April 10, — President and Mrs. Roosevelt will go to 1o Now York the last of this wook to be present at the install ment, of their friend, Dr. Nichols Butler, as president of the Colum bia l’Diversity, the position held by Hon. Seth Low when he was nominated mayor of New York. It, is not expected that Miss Alice, who is enjoying herself very much | in Washington, will go with them, although she may. The feud between Gen. Miles and the W ar Department, which is really older than the Sampson- Sebley eontroversey, was given fresh fuel by theoflicial announce ment that Gen. Miles is to be Compulsory retired by the presi dent, and it is now raging worse than ever. Il has heretofore been confined mostly to the men, and was the cause a few years ago of one of the most prominent officers in the army getting blackballed at j the Metropolitan Club by friends (of Gen. Miles, and the Army and Navy Club lias long been divided into M iles and nnti-Milea Cliques. According to current gossip, the women of uociety, especially in of ficial circles, are preparing to take up the cudgels for and against Gen. Miles, and there’s no telling where it will end. Senator “Billy” Mason lias a weakness for puns, which he in dulges in occasionally. The other day Gen. Alfred Hawley and Judge Thomas were his guests at lunch in the Senate restaurant. The subject of liquid refreshments was under discussion. Judge Thomas expressed the opinion j that whiskey wgs a tonic and a| necessary one. Gen. Hawley said j that he considered beer a very' healthful and positive tonic. Sen ator Mason, whose personal pre ference was shown by the Scotch 1 “high ball” he sipped from time 1 to time, said that he had always i thought beer “tuetonic.” They! were his guests, but neither man' could help giving him a reproach ful look. The National Academy of Sciences is holding its annual ses sion in Washington. The members to show their good will, have arranged for a scries of afternoon public sessions, when the recrea tion offered their friends will con sist of reading papers upon such delightful and soul-stirring sulv jecti. as “Evolution of the Tita wotheres,” “Hotnoplasy and La tent Honology,” and “The Bom-j bycino Moths of America.” Of course the people will fall over each other in their rush to attend such entertainments. Handsome men are not rare among W hite House callers, buta handsomer man than Hon. San ford B. Dole, Gov. of Hawaii, who had two conferences with the President this week and cinched his hold on his office until 1904, would be rare anywhere. In ap pearance Gov. Dole is the ideal ruler of men, and lie inherited the persuasive tongue of his mis sionary ancestors. He will pay a short visit to relatives in Boston before returning to Hawaii. Ex-Senator Carter, of Montana, and ex-Representative (“Private John”) Allen, of Miss., both members of the St. Louis Exposi tion commission, were at the White House together this week. They told a number of new stories and they predicted that the Expo sition company would in a few days take formal action for the postponement until 1904, of the exposition. Mr. Allen said: “It is becoming strongly apparent that the fair cannot be made ready by 1908; that is, and make it the great world’s exposition that is desired.” They both said that the IT.l T . S. Commissioners of the exposition were practically unan imous in believing that the expo sition should be postponed for a : year. Gen. Samuel Pearson, formerly of the Boers army and now the ; Boer agent in this country, called on the President this week to ! thank him for investigating the ; charge made by him that the Brit ish were violating the neutrality | laws, in Louisiana and in other parts of the U. S. After seeing the ; President Gen. Pearson left for New Orleans. Representative Finley, of South j Carolina, like Gen. Grant, has no ear for music. He very frankly l acknowledges the fact that he j could not tell a selection from Wagner from rag-time composi tion. To oblige an old friend Mr. Finley attended one of the music ales which the example of the example of the Roosovelts have BARNESVILLE NEWS-GAZETTE, THURSDAY, APRIL 24,1902. made the fashionable fad and sat through a long programme. Along towards the end a familiar piece was played. “Don’t you know piece?” asked his friend. “What is it?” queried Mr. Finley. “Why it’s America.” “North or South?” asked Mr. Finley, wearily. Representative Benton, of Mo., who raises considerable live stock on bis home farm, makes a fad of curing hams and enjoys the repu tation of curing the best in the country. He gave his receipt for curing bams to some members of the House who have tried them. Here it is: “You can’t cure a small ham like you can one of 18 or 20 pounds. I cure all my bums, and they are cured as hams should j be. The hams I cure will average 20 pounds. You salt the ham ! thoroughly, rubbing the salt over ; every particle of space, and on 'the bones rub saltpeter, to dry up the blood and thus prevent the fb'sh from getting sour. At tin end of four weeks repeat the ope ration of salting. When this is over place it in tiie smoke house and burn hickory chips and corn cobs. After having been thorough ly smoked wrap the ham in brown paper, place it, in an ordinary sack, then bury it in a sack pack ed with charcoal and let it remain a year. Then it is fit to eat, and if you keep it two years the meat will be that much sweeter. Talk about steaks and spring lamb; why, they are not to be compared to a ham that has been cured as J have described.” Miss Helen Keller, the remaka hle blind and deaf mute, who is now in her third year at Radcliff College, the Harvard annex, at Cambridge, Mass., who was the guest of Dr. Alexandra Graham Bell for a few days, called on President Roosevelt by special re quest and the two hadha half hour conversation —Miss Keller ha s been taught to speak in a way. She placed her fingers on the President’s lips and had no diffi culty in understanding every word he said, and he understood her, although few do, as she speaks in a muffled tone. OASTORXA. Bear* the si The Kind You Have Always Bought How to Help Your Town. A newspaper writer suggests several ways to build up a town, among them — Praise it. Talk about it. Write about it. Help to improve it. Speak well about it. Patronize home merchants. Induce desirable settlers to locate in it. Let “Home Trade” be the watchword. Elect good men to local office. Give them moral support when in office. Urge public benefits and im provements at all times. Assist in promoting every en terprise for the good of the whole community. Don’t follow “calamity shout ers;” keep in the front ranks of progress and advancement. Remember that every dollar in vested in permanent improvements is that much on interest.

A mail who was bicycling in south ern France was pushing his machine up a steep hill when lie overtook a peasant with a donkey cart. The patient beast was making but little progress, although it was doing its best. The benevolent cyclist, putting his left hand against the back of the cart and guiding liis machine with the other hand, pushed so hard that the donkey, taking fresh cour age, pulled his load successfully to the top. When the summit was reached, the peasant burst into thanks to his benefactor. “It was good of you, indeed, mon sieur,” he protested. “I should nev er in the world have got up the hill with onh one donkey.” Y'outli’s Companion.

The first thing to do with a sprain is to apply water as hot as hot as can be borne and repeat until the pain is gone. The hot water may be showered on the sprian, or wet. The foot or ankle can be convenienlly immersed in the hotwater.The next thing is to keep the injured part thoroughly warm. This is done by winding it with wadding or flannel. The less a sprained limb is used and the quieter it is kept the more likely it is to get well quickly. Growing girls who are tall for their age frequently allow the shoulders to droop forward, and thus contract the stooping habit. This tendency should be corrected the first time it is observed. Braces will rather injure the child, for the reason that they prevent the exercise of those muscles which should be trained to produce an erect carriage. High pillows and soft mattresses should be avoided, a flat., hard bed, with low pillow, being preferable for a growing child : and a five minutes walking exercise with a book on the head is of great benefit if practiced daily.
