A Coat of Thoso Moan Excruciating Tortur to tho Victim. People who read of tarring ami feathering know that the punishment Is a very unpleasant one, but few Im agine bow terribly painful and dan gerous It is. Hardened tar is very bard to remove from the skin, and when feathers are added It forms a kind of cement that sticks closer than a brother. As soon as the tar sets the rlctlm's suffering begins. It contracts as It cools, and every one of the little reins on the body Is pulled, causing the most exquisite agony. The pers pi ra tio d is entirely stopped, and unless the tar is removed death is certain to en sue. But the removal Is no easy task and requires several days. The tar cannot be softened by the application of heat and must be peeled off bit by bit, sweet oil being used to make the proc ess less painful. The Irritation to the skin is very great, as the hairs cannot be disengaged, but must be pulled out or cut off. No man can be cleaned of tar in a single day, as the pain of the operation would be too excruciating for endurance, and until this Is done he has to suffer from a pain like that of 10.000 pin pricks. Numbers of men have died under the torture, and none who have gone through it regard tar and feathering as anything but a most fearful infliction. TOBACCO IN THE ARCTIC. Resource of Miners Whtn Thoy Can Neither Chew Nor Smoke. 'When the wind Is blowing thirty miles an hour and the temperature is 40 below it is some cold," said a man from Alaska. "If a man used tobacco in the ordinary way out of doors dur ing such weather and got his lips wet through smoking a pipe or chewing he would be apt to get Into trouble. Kirat thing he knew he'd have his Hps crack ed, and they would bo raw all winter long. "The regulars stationed at the mili tary posts up In Alaska found that If they tied a tobacco leaf tn their arm pit previous to undeslred duty they would become very sick and could pass the post surgeon for hospital, getting rid of detail work they wanted to avoid, "The miners up there learned some thing of this and found that the tobac co craving could be satisfied by bind ing a quantity of the leaf either In the armpit or against the solar plexus. This avoided broken and bleeding lips during the winter, and they weren't prevented from smoking indoors as well if they wauted to. It was the out door smoking or chewing that made all the trouble." New York Bun. Way to Treat Venison. The sportsman was explaining to a few of his uninitiated friends. "If you don't like venison," he said, "It is because it has not been prepared properly. 1 think I know the kind you have tried to eat, and I agree with you it is not fit After the deer has been shot the carcass probably baa been allowed to He around until the blood has discolored the meat and really has almost tainted It Few hunters dress their game carefully enough. As soon as a deer is . killed the carcass should be thoroughly bled, skinned, the entrails removed and the meat hung up in the dry air for some hours. Thorough and prompt bleeding Is of the utmost Importance. Venison prepared in this way is comparatively light In color that Is, it la a clear, bright red, and the fat is white and clean. There is no strong, rank taste.' New York Press. Revenge. "Stop!" The brakes of tho motor were suddenly applied, a pandemonium of whirling wheels ensued, and the mo torist came face to face with Consta ble Coppem, who bad been hiding in the hedge. "Excuse mo, sir," said the portly p Uceman, taking out bis notebook and pencil, "but you exceeded tho speed limit by two miles over a measured piece of road." "I have done nothing of tho kind," retorted the motorist, "and, besides" "Well, if you don't believe me I'll call the sergeant, beln' as It was Mm as took the time, lie's in the pigsty yonder." "Don't trouble. Robert.", the other hastened to reply. "I would sooner pay fifty fines than disturb the ser geant at his meals!" London Answers. Faithful Woman.
