It lii difficult to realize th

any aocial prominence on either bank of

in separate buildings, which, in several
cases, were formerly used by the servants
of the original proprietors. One of the fea

trees situated in the very ceuter of Paris,

If You Hum Yourself.
The pain from slight burns Is very great.
An excellent application is a thick paste
of common baking Bo4n moistened with
water, spread on a plcoe of linen or cot
ton, and bound on the part. This can be
kept wet by squeezing water on it from a
sponge or cloth until thesmurting is sooth
ed. A thick coating of starch can be used
Instead of the soda, or wheat flour if noth
ing better can be had, but neither should
be applied if the skin is broken. In this
case it Is better to use viielltie, olive or
linseed oil. The doctor will apply some
preparation containing carbolic acid.
If the air be effectually excluded from a
burn, the pain is relieved.
Blisters should be pricked and the fluid
absorbed with a soft cloth before dressing.
If the clothing adheres to the skin, the
loose part should be cut away and the
patches of material soaked off with oil or
warm water.
When the Injury is extensive, thesuffer
er will be prostrated and may die from the
shock. Heat should bo applied to the ex
tremities and over the heurt, and hot
driukB given until the doctor comes.
In burns from a strong acid the port
should be covered with dry baking soda
or lime, as the alkali will neutralize, the
acid. No water should be used, but cos
moline or oil applied after the alkali bas
been brushed oil .
When the burn bus been caused by nn
alkali, an acid must be used. A person re

An Anecdote of Mr. Clilltls.
Tills Incident lias been ruluted of Mr.
Childs, mid I boliove it bus never been
printed. Stopping one of his bend em
ployee! one dny, Mr. Childs enid: "You
aro not looking well. I think yuu must
be working too linrd."
"I am not fee-ling very well, Mr.
Childs, that is a fact," was thoanswer,
"but I guess I will be nil right iu n
short time."
"How would you liko to take trip
to Europe?" said Mr. Childs, smiling
pleasantly.
"Well enough, sir," was tho response,
'"hut I cannot nlford It."
" You c-nn afford it,"(-uid Mr. Childs,
taking him by tlio arm, "if 1 pay your
expenses ami pny your salary to your
family while you nio gone, can't you?"
Tho result wns the man spent two
months in Europe and returned com
pletely restored to health.
"That was one of the best Invest
ments I ever made," chuckled Mr.
Childs when tbo matter was called to
bis attention. "Why, Mr. re
turned so much improved iu health that
be could do twice us much work as lie
could before be left. You see, I was
the real gainer by the tiunsuction."
One of Mr. Childs' characteristics
was that he never seemed to take any
credit to himself for doing a kind act.

cause I thought it wus the ugliest pic
turo I bad ever seen. I tried to find out
tbo history or inclining of tho thing for
some lime without any success until a
fow days ago, while studying Taoism, I
found tho ugly man was one of the
Taoist gods. In his early days his spirit
bad tho power of leaving his body and
roaniingover tho universe alone. When
oft on ono of these trips, wolves camo
aud ate bia body. So when bis spirit re
turned it found only a few bones. After
bunting around for awbilo the spirit
found the body of a dead hunchback
beggar who walked with an iron cane
in bis lifetime. The spirit crawled in
this body nnd has lived in it over since.

DISCUSSIONS ABOUT DEHORNING.
If the Uornt on Our Cattlt Wort Not
Frequently Used for I)oln Injury to
Doth Han and lleaat, Very Fow Would
Advocate Their Removal.
This ia the way F. L. Gaston, Nor
mal, III., dishes up " horns" in a recent
Jersey Bulletin :
" In regard to the discussion about
dehorning, there seems to be no more
chance for all to agree than In the mattor
of prohibiting the sale of " horns " that
make brutes of men. The greater the
nuisance the more some will argue that
we have no right to deprive the others
of their natural privileges. Were it not
a fact that the " horns " men tuko make
them even lower than brutes, there
would be no occasion for us to try to
prohibit their exercising their natural
privileges. And if the horns on our
cattlo were not frequently used for doing
injury to both man and beast, very few
would advocate their removal.
For several years past our State and
nation have been licensing the sale of
" horns " that make brutes of men ; now
why not allow owners of bulls, by pay
ing a license fee, to retain their horns,
so if the bull feels like killing Jus
master or his master's horse, or his
master's neighbor, he shall have the
blessed privilege if his owner is only
willing to pay the license fee, no matter
whether it is high or low. For myself
I am satisfied men should be prohibited
from buying or taking "horns" which
make them go home and kill their wife,

A a In the kind of soil in which the
olive succeeds, Ellwood Cooper of Santa

stony hillaidos, on table land with clay
subsoil, in shady lands made Irom tne
wash of the mountains, with no differ
ence in the bearing of the trees or the
oil made. They are known to succeed

it cannot be plowed. Our virgin soils of

Ualilornia are ncu in nine mm puio,
two of the chief constituents required
by the olive tree. Prof. Hilgard has
stated that the substance of olive oil is
taken entirely from the air, and that if
the crop is made into oil, and pomice
and all other offal returned to the land
from the outset, it needs no other manure
if the soil is a fairly good ono; it does
not wear out the soil, but if the fruit is
pickled returns Bliould be made to the
soil, and then potash and nitrogen are
especially called for. The olive tree
flourishes under varied climatic condi
tions; it will withstand a temperature
of 14 degrees above zero ; it succeeds in
the dry, interior valleys of the State,
where the mercury during the summer
often rangcB from 100 to 120 degrees in
the shade along the coast and on the
high foothillB of our mountain ranges.

Now Way of Curing Lemons.
Theodore PickctiB of La Canyada sug
gests a plan for curing lemons which he
says he has tried-successfully and which
he calls " the poor man'B method." He
cuts his lemons from the trees, UBing all
tho ordinary precautions in handling,
puts them in reeular fruit boxes, having
openings at each end for the purpose of
bundling Bume. lie then places his
boxes on the north side of the house or
in Borne Blindy place where the sun will
not reach them, and packs five or six
boxes high, putting a sack over the top
of each and letting the ends come dawn
over the openings at the end bo as to
exclude the air and light. About once
a week he gives the lemons a shower
bath of cold water bv inserting the end
of a hose in the openings at the end of
boxeB. Ho repeats this operation ahont
once a week, or, tl the weattier is cionuv,
not bo often. Ho produced Bome really
fine specimens cured in this way, and
he aavs he has kept them eix or eight
months. His I'enrmain apples are kept
by this method until the first of May.
'This is, to say the least, a new and
unique plan, and it might not be amiss
for others to try it in a small wav. We
would advise, however, not using this
method extensively until better ac-
3uainted with the results. Los Angeles

I'liilmile l.uve o Myth.
Love 1s t ween women nnd men was uot
invented for the entertainment of pbilos
ophers, but largely for domestic pnrsises,
and if platouic love is to have anything
better than a hazardous and unstable ex
istence the conditions of it must lie such
that It may prosper without conflict with
nature's more iinHirtant euds. Thus we
see why platouic friendships between
young people who might marry do not en
dure. Such couples get married, and their
friendship merges into a more durable
sentiment, or else one of them marries
some one else, and then it lapses. At least
it should lapse, for. if it d.s-s not, it not
only militates against peace in a family,
but It tends to keep the unmarried phi

POULTRY NOTES.
A hen in her prime, when properly
fed and cared for, Bliould yearly furnish
three times her weight in eggs.
A chick of one the larger breeds
hatched in the incubator until the twenty-second
day indicates that the temper
ature of the egg drawer was a tri fie too
low.
Kjrgs from hens not in company with
cocks have been found to keep very much
longer than those from hens mated with
cocks. In summer, after hatching is
over, remove the males, aa the hens will
lay as well without them.

Howe was well ncqtmlnti-cl with mem
bers of Harvard clubs In towns tho conn
try over, and he glided from one to nu
mber with tho facility of n drummer nnd
nl wavs left victims behind. Ho was In
the habit of registering at tho best hoteli
lu tho places he visited and then calllnp
lixin the Harvard men thero. The story
ho would unfold was invariably liko this:
Ho had Just urrlved In the city nnd va
011 bis way to udlstant town, where press
liur lniuliii.su eiiipiiireinetits weru iilrcndv
overdue,. Tho first night of his stay In
EUWAliD IK.WK.
had been nibbed of JJiOO ut his hotel and
hnd nut enough to proceed upon his Jour
ney. He usked for funds to carry him tc
his destination and always obtained thf
sums he wanted. These amounts he would
repay In a day or two, but hero ends the
chapter. Tho money was never returned.
The list of victims was Increased.
In Chicago, however, Howe met lib
Waterloo. Ho ''negotiated loans" until
his creditors became as thick ns tho louvi
of Ynlluinhrosa. Ho piled up his "an
gels" threo rows high, and llnnlly they
cunio together and concocted a plot to put
nn ond to bis guino. J. C. Hnrtlett of 4C
Sidney court had him nrrestl, und Doc. '1
Ilowo was thrust into the county Jail.
When Howowns placed behind the burs
in Chicago, his wife went to Xew York
ond commenced to gather In a harvest in
order to securo money for her husbimd'f
defense. Her work met with n decided
hindrance, by her arrest, but sho had won
away large stilus from (iothiiinltes before
Ijeliig detected. .Martha Stiles was lwrn
In Amherst, X. II., In 18 IS, nnd is of an
excellent Xow F.nglnnd family. Her sis
tor is married to ono of Chicago's most
prominent business men, who balled
Howo out in December.
Martha began her career of crookednosi
soon after the close of tho wur, fastening
her clutches upon tho G. A. H. posts as the
first experience teachers. Sho told a ro
mantic tulo to tho old soldiers. Sho said
sho had enrolled In the Twenty-seventh
Massachusetts volunteers ns a drummer
boy nnd served until thcbnttlonf Lookout
Mountain. There at her post of duty she
was wounded and her sex discovered. This
fnblo was very productive until punctured
by a suspicious Ohio veteran. Then Mar
tha, who called herself Kato Clayton, van
ished. She married Howe, und they went
"n-stnrrlng" and found tho west a good
market. In 1885 they went on tho stage
and at Boston appeared In Mine. Modjcs
ka's company. They were ull tho while
continuing tho Harvard scliemo totho det
riment of about 800 graduates' purse
throughout the entire country.
In tho.Harvard 18(14 classliook Is a long
sketch of Howe's lifo up to 188(1, which hi'
wroto himself. Howe was born in l4!l
nnd belongs to a respected Cambridge
(Mass.) family. He fitted for college at
Phillips Kxeter academy. After gradua
tion ho entered tho Lnwreiico Scientific
school as a student of engineering. In
ISO" ho left for Freiberg, Saxony, where
ho remained as n member of tlio Hoyal
School of Mines for two years. After con
siderable European travel ho returned tc
the United States early In tho seventies.
Ho was superintendent of tho I'opieroy
(O.) rolling mill for 10 months und then
went to Sun Francisco und wus assistant
auditor in thu Western Union Telegraph
ollico for a short time. Ho then engaged
In tho refining of lead and silver and the
examining of mines in western Nevada.
Ho next occupied a prominent position
with a Sun Francisco hardware firm. He
came east and worked with several rail
roads in Massachusetts, but went back to
California and was appointed u stnto com
missioner to the New Orleans exposlilon
by the governor.
His history has been one of remarkable
tips ond downs, und his ability, if directed
la a proper channel, would have won him
a good position in the world of science.
His family have made repeated efforts to
reclaim him, but havo utterly failed.
As to the ultimate punishment of Howo
aid his wife, there ore enough Indictments
against them to glvo them prison homes
for n century to come should they escape
the clutches of the law now.

who flint cowvivii! thin jilan of crow

grand originator.
He doubth'NH won many cokc by
its use. He dimum much credit for
his aliui'imt'sM. Out the thotimiuibj of

our courts are enough to blot bia

call him impertinent when they lea v

him.
Vet lie grows up in the busmen
nnd expands, und hw abusive propen
sity increitses with his fees. But bul
ly inn does not ulways win. Thera
ure finer method of discomposing a
witness than that. Dickons told of
nn old lawyer who never fulled to
discompose bis victim by a much
simpler und inllnitely less offonsivt
method. Tho old lawyer took snuff.
Just us he wa nlxjut to ask a vitul
question ho would take a piuch very
slowly und ceremoniously. Then lis
would draw out un immense red
bundkerchief and spread it upon bis
bund.
Ho would then put the question,
screw up his eyes us if the snuff irri
tated him und dclilierutely wait Iuun
expectant nttitudo before blowiiighis
nose until the witness could answer.
These tactics, so the uuthor said,
never fuiled to distract the victim,
and his answer would invariably be
hulting, compromising und of Inesti
mable vulue in "impressing the
jury." Tbo bulldozing lawyer will
probably continue to bulldoze until

Daniel Webster was the senior in
formed the great advocate that the
opposing parties were bent on secur
ing a continuance, while the inter
ests of his client demanded imme
diate decision. Among other annoy
ances mentioned was the fact that
the other side had occupied six days
cross examining one witness. When
Mr. Webster appeared the next day,
he soon hud occasion to remark:
"They ask for a continuance of thia
case. Why, may it please the court,
they have already occupied as much
time in tho cross examination of one
witness as it took the Almighty to
