FRIDAY OCTOBER, 5 1894. Keeping the Log. When the good ship Petrel was on her last voyage, the inate was ap pointed to keep the log. One day, however, he indulged too freely in the forbidden cup and was unable to attend to his duties. The next day, quite late, after his head was once more able to hold his cap, he decided to write up the log. Turning to the page of the day be fore, ho was surprised to find this entry: “Mate drunk all day.” “Here,” he said to the captain, “I —I w-wouldn’t put that in, would you? It isn’t necessary.” “Why not?” replied the captain. “It’s true, isn’t it?” “Yes, it's true, I suppose.” “Well, then, 1 guess it had better stand. ” So the mate resumed the log and began writing it up for that day. When night came, the captain, as usual, glanced over the record. It was his turn to be surprised, for standing out in large black letters were the words, “Captain sober all day.” “Here, Mr. Mate,” he called out, “come here. What do you mean by this, you fool ? Why anybody would think it quite unusual for me to be sober. What do you mean, sir?” “Can’t help that,” responded the mate, “It’s true, isn’t it ?” “Yes, it’s true, I suppose.” “Well, then, I guess it had better stand.” —Boston Budget. Alligator as Food. There is reason to believe that the flesh of a young boiled alligator is barely distinguishable from veal, says Longman’s Magazine. It is probably cleaner and more tender than much of the meat of the animals that are usually consumed as food on the con tinent or in the east end of London. I have never desired to taste the flesh of alligators Cooked or uncooked. But in India I have seen the Sontals and other casteless natives greedily devour the flesh of an alligator with out waiting to cook it. The flesh was very pale in color and probably was much superior to the flesh of snakes and rats and such like vermin which form the ordinary food of the predatory Sontal when hunting in his native woods. It does not fall to his lot very often to be able to circumvent and slay and eat a large alligator. He more fre quently comes upon small alligators, and they go to swell the contents of his cooking pots. If, however, he is so lucky as to meet a sahib who has shot a large alligator, say about six feet long, he eagerly falls upon the unwonted delicacy without waiting to cook it —very much as we read in books of African adventure that the natives devour the carcasses of the large game animals that the English sportsmen do not want for their own followers. A Colt Punishes a Kain For Cruelty. The following is an incident which came under the observation of the writer: Two young horses kept in a pasture with a number of cows and a year- old calf were accustomed to come up to the gate every night with the cows, the oldest leading the line and the younger bringing up the rear. Owing to a want of water in the pasture, some sheep were brought to the one in which the horses and cows were kept, and these sometimes followed the cows when they came at night to be milked. One night they «iid so, and when all the ani mals were standing together the ram butted Mie calf, which could not de fend itself, and the older colt, going over to it, seized the ram by the wool on its back, and, lifting it entirely off the ground, shook it vigorously. He then placed it on the ground, and it quickly ran away, while the horse continued to stand guard over his friend.—Our Dumb Animals. A Fruit Diet. Professor Emory E. Smith says: “Do you wish to rid yourself of many aggravating bodily ills? Then go into the sunshine, throw away the nostrums with which you are being poisoned and absorb the acids, salts and oils that were intended as a nat ural healer and regulator of your body. Do you want bright eyed, rosy cheeked children? Then let your bill for fruit be twice that for white bread and meat. We have a mission not only to raise fruit, but to teach the world that this fruit is the cheapest, the healthiest and the most nutritious and best of foods. When this has been done, the ques tion of markets will not vex us, and to tho California fruitgrower the world will owe more than it can ea ily repay.”—Pomona (Cal.) Progress. Ohl Printers. One of the advantages of the trade of typesetting is that a man can work at it up to a later period of life than men can work at most other trades. Every now and then stories are print ed about working compositors who are 80 years old or over, but there are certainly not many blacksmiths or carpenters or engineers or brick layers or hatters or pressmen who can follow their trade at that age. There are lots of typesetters 70 years old. and bigger lots 60 years old. but there are very few of the other skill ed trades at which men can pick up a living when they are 60 or 70. It is also a fact that typos are constantly improving their minds while poring over the “case.”—Philadelphia Tele graph. •THE BIGGEST* THING ROME ri’*iMGDonaH-Sparks-Stewart-Company.i«4- wife, Carpels, Mailings t We carry the largest stock in the state.
