all fear of overstaying the time and thus
wearing out the welcome. Moreover,

There is a certain amount of labor in

A simple pattern of an incandescent
lamp has lately been introduced in
France, consisting of two horizontal rods
of copper, placid about four in dimeters
apart. A thin, pointed rod of carbon,
placed vertically, rests on the copper
rods and forms a bridge between them.
That is a wonderful machine which Mr.
Francis Galtou lias invented for ineasui

According to experiments made this

Numerous observations made in France
show that on meeting an insulated me

communicate to it a positive charge;
that the amplitude of this chaige in

and decreases with the hygrometnc state

J-jfteen Indians, . with ..... the big rnedi
ctnemail of the village, wereseated in a
teepee smoking, but rarely speaking to
eaeh other. Some live coals were brought
and placed before the medicine man,
who threw upon them wild sage brush,
and holding some pemniiean in the smoke
chanted a song. Little children were
brought in, and received this meat to eat,
and some ba<l their ears pierced. The
pemrniean ! was also given to the others
m the . lodge . , and , some was placed . , at , the

Outside the lodge hundreds of Indians
were gathered, forming- groups oj a doz

their resjKTtive places. All were feasted
with a menu known only lo Indians,
Around the outside of the medieine lodge
horizontal poles were placed, and to
these the presents which the ghosts were
to distribute were suspended, ' ’ consisting
of blankets, leggings, beaded moccasins,
tobacco bags, eagle feathers, etc. After
remaining for some time iu view, they
were removed and placed about the
ghosts in the lodge. The relatives now
entered the lodge to commune with the
departed spirits, and the presents were
distributed to the favored ones.
The squaws sang and cried and made
great exhibition of their grief. They
eiit their flesh with knives, suffering ex
cruciating pains without a murmur to ap
pease the wrath of the evil spirits, so that
their loved ones may he joyful iu the

down and the ghosts were left standing.
He Wanted a “Soft Snap.”
Recently, says the Pittsburg Tima, a
man, slightly under the influence of liq
uor, approached the guard standing at
door of th. recruiting station of the
United States Army, and addressing the
soldier, said: “Is this the place to enlist
in the army?” uniformed
“Yes, sir,” replied the gen
tleman.
•■1 believe that 1 would like to enlist
and go to the Alleghany arsenal at Law
rciH-cville. That is a pretty nice place,
and 1 think the soldiers have a pretty soft
snap. join the
“But why do you want to
army?” asked the soldier. “Arc you in
trouble and wish to withdraw from the
world and drown your sorrow in the quiet
life of a soldier, or are you out of em
ployment and disheartened?”
“Neither of these.' 4 said the applicant
for army honors. “[ have been a hard
working man all my life, and now 1 want
to take a rest, and I know of no softer
snap than to lie a soldier.”
“Well, now, just listen one moment
and 1 will explain the matter to you. In
the first place, the chances arc ten to one
that if you enlist you will regret it within
three months, and then wish you were
back in Pittsburg. There is no way of
getting back until your time has expired, will
and if you desert and come back you
be retaken, court martialed and sen
(enced to undergo imprisonment at hard
hard labor for five years. None but those
of long service can get an opportunity to
come to Pittsburg and be stationed at
the arsenal or recruiting stations. You
would be sent West and be compelled to
do sentinel duty at the camp and be out
in all kinds of weather, with no beer or
whisky to drive out the frost and damp
ness.”
“Well,” said the applicant with sur
prise. “if that is the case, I don't believe
that l want to become a soldier. T am
very much obliged to you for your infor
mation. 1 shall go back to my trade aud
cut stone. Good-by. If you find me
back here again kick me out, will you?”
With these words he left, but came
back again and asked the guard to come
out amt have a drink. Nothing dampens
the ardor of military honors more than to
describe the realities of soldier life.
The Horse ami the Owner.
A writer says that the names that a
man gives liis horses indicate his own
character. Wo expect that that is true to
some degree at least. The horse is a
pretty good index to the owner’s charac
ter anyhow. Look at a mail's horse and
you can tell what a man is pretty cer
tainly. A lazy team indicates a lazy
man, for an active man will not put up
with a lazy team. A team of poor horses
—principally ribs and hide—is usually
ow net! by a man as poor in flesh as his
horses are and he is very apt to be as
mean as they look. Nobody, we verily
believe, ever saw a well-fed, neat and
fleshy man driving a skeleton team.

t Reliable Dry Weather Sign.
Spckiug of the dry weather, savs tho
S t. Louis a close observer of

■ • J have a dry weather sign which
years I have never known to fail, and it
at the same time illustrates the
wisdom of smail creatures, and that is
this: Whenever you see the grass of the
lawn or field covered with numerous
small webs, as you have doubtless often
seen, you may depend on it that the
weather will be dry for some time.
“The liny creatures seem to spread

mean, for the tiesh of the white man is

“To resume about the man-eating, I

the stock subjects of conversation.'’

man was not half had. He fed on rice,
and had a tender vegetable flavor about
him, like a mealy cauliflower. But of
all varieties there was nothing so sweet
as a i ntive baby—so sweet, so juicy, so

were naturally tough and siunewy.
And the favorite parts were the thigh

inherit a wife by agreement. You may
get your dead brother’s xvife, but the
commonest method of acquiring a wife
is to go and help yourself. If you are a
big fellow you walk into the hut and
take the lndv. Then there is a row, and
you have to fight a duel with a wooden
broadsword, and the women come down
to tho tight and howl and screech and
back their men, and there is a terrible
to-do. It is the women who cause all
the rows, all the wars, all the feuds. It
is always some Helen and some Paris.”

Messrs. F. J. Cheney & Co.—.Gentlemen:— medicine

preparation that X could prescribe I Hall's Ca- as
much confidence of success as can
tarrh Core, manufactured by you. Have pro
scribed it a great many times and its effect is
wonderful, and would say iu conclusion that I
have yet to find a case of Catarrh that it
w uld not cure, if they would take it accord
ing to directions. Truly,
Vours Gorscos, M. D.

As the chorus floats along:
’’Hail the Queen of all Tobaccos!”
How the happy voices blend, fellows—

Catarrh in the Head
Originates in scrofulous taint In the blood. Henc©
the proper method by which to cure catarrh Is to
purify the blood. Its many disagreeable symptoms
and the danger of developing into bronchitis or that
terribly fatal disease, consumption, are entirely re
moved by Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which cures catarrh
by purifying the blood; it also tones up the system
and greatly improves the general health. Try the
‘‘peculiar medieine.”
“I have used Hood’s Sarsaparilla for catarrh with
very satisfactory results. I received more perma
nent benefit from it than from any other remedy C
ever tried. ”—11. E. Read, of A. Read & Sou,
W'auseon, Ohio.
