"TAKEC7fRl0,- ERSELF

Tha Solicitous Injunction of tha Sierra
Swine-Harder.
In "Mountaineering in the Sierra
Nevada" Clarence King relates that
he came one night to a camp-fire under
a group of pines. A little way from
th ' : lay a confused mass of old and
half-bald buffalo robes and comfort
ers, and outstretched on this was a fam
ily with their feet to the fire. The fam
ily consisted of mother and father,
two small children and a huge girl.
"You seem to have a pleasant camp
spot here," was my salutation.
The old woman answered sharply:
"They's wus, and then again they's
better."
"Does well for our hogs," inserted
the old man. "We've a band of pork
that make out to find feed."
"Oh! How many have you?" i
asked.
"Nigh three thousand."
"Won't you set?" asked madam; then,
turning to the daughter: "You, Susan,
can't you try for to set up, and not
spread so? Hain't you no manners,
say?"
At this the massive girl got herself
somewhat together, and made room
for me, a courtesy which I declined,
however.
"Prospectin'?" inquired madam.
"I say huntin'," suggested the man.
"Maybe he's a cattle feller," inter
rupted one of the children.
"Goin' somewhere, ain't yer?" was
Susan's guess.
I gave a brief account of myself, sat
isfying all but the old woman, who ev
idently classified me as not up to her
standard. Later she turned and said to
me:
"I allow you've killed your coon in
your day?"
"No, ma'am," I said. "Now you
speak of it, I realize that I never have
killed a coon."
I realized, too, that this fatal admis
sion must forever lower me in her
eyes, and I observed that even Susan
and her father were somewhat stag
gered. After a sojourn of several days
among them, I took leave of the fam
ily. The father and Susan accom
panied me for a distance into the for
est to inspect the hogs. As we were
parting the old man said with evident
embarrassment:
"You'll take care o' yerself, now,
won't you?"
I tried to convince him that I would.
A slight pause.
"You'll take care o' yerself, won't
you?"
I was about to reply that he might
rely on it, when he added:
rhet thet thet man what (rets
husau tins half the hogs! " . ., , '
Then, turning away, he spurred his
pony, calling out: "Take good care o'
yerself!"

Voimir I. ailv'a Mother.
Society of the highly proper sort ia
laughing in its voluminous sleeve at
an adventure which befell a handsome
noliloni-in nttaclicd to one of the for
eign legations. The young man, it ap
pears, is not averse to admiring femi
nine beauty, and it is said that when
he visits the theater he takes a seat in
the front row and fixe his eyes on the
fair portion of the audience, aays the
Washington Tost.
It is only natural that a man with
such splendidly soulful eyes and lux
uriant mustache as the baron's should
inspire reciprocal esteem in many of
the weaker aex, and is acquainted with
many damsel to whom he ha never
received a formal introduction.
The other day he espied an exceed
ingly pretty brunette whom he immedi
ately wanted to meet the worst way in
the world. When she discovered hi
admiring glances she drooped her lid
in that t'Mm-ttish way which bespoke
a similur desire on her part.
The attache is up to such demure lit
tle idiosyncrasies ami in les time
than it takes to tell it he was chatting
with her. Her mental brightness wa
even more pronounced thun her per
sonal attract iveiies. and he hah am it
ten. She refused hi invitation to
luncheon, however, and would not
even let him walk home with her, but
she said he might call and meet her
mother, ami in ess the latter wa fa
vorably iinpreiiheil with him he could
continue hi visit. This wa a new
typ of the American girl to t lie diplo
mat, so he rapturously applauded her
eminent gixsl tteiimi ami straightfor
wardness, ami made an engagement,
in pursuance of her remark, for the
very next night.
He was m anxious to make a gixxl
appearance that h primped for half
an hour In-fore the legation pier glass
and ruined a doxen necktie before he
tied one of that, proper terra rot la
shade). Then he sallied forth on con
quest lf nt.
He reached hi latest Inamorata's
residence and a bright mulatto Ikv an
awend the Ih-. In answer to his in
quiry If Mi So-and Si was at home,
the youngster replied that "sister"

this remark didn't eein to strike the

prehistoric skulls which presented
these appaarances, and urged that it
was sufficient proof that the owners
survived these operations, performed
something like five thousand years
ago. He found that in one instance
the hole had been scraped out of the
skull, and mentioned that even at the
present time among the Kabyles, in
the north of Africa, two days were oc
cupied in performing the operation.
Trephining was also accomplished by
drilling a number of holes with a bone
drill, then breaking down the small
partitions, and so releasing the desired
piece of bone. Again.the operation could
be effected with a stone saw, and skulls
were represented that showed that
after the periosteum had been scraped
away sawing had been resorted to.
Primitive people, he said, were very
careless as to these operations, and
even five hundred years ago in Germa
ny a piece of the skull was removed as
a cure for melancholy. If a savage
suffered in the head from a blow tre
phining was accomplished, and doubt
less the sufferer from fits, who was
considered to be possessed, was re
lieved by a similar operation. From
the skulls he had examined he found
that the holes were generally made
immediately above those parts of the
brain where an injury would, induce
fits. Often the piece of bone was re
placed in the skull and at other times
it was split up into amulets. No doubt
the dwellers in the stone age looked
into the operation as something very
special, and considered that the bone
removed had supernatural properties.
OLD WORLD ETIQUETTE.
Strange Social Customs Which Are Ob
served 1 i Europe and Asia.
In Sweden, if you address the poor
est person on the street yon raust lift
your hat, says the Philadelphia Press.
The same courtesy is insisv -ii upon if
you pass a lady on the Muirway. To
enter a reading room or a hank with
one's hat on is regarded us a bad
breach of manners. To place your
hand on the arm of a lady is a grave
and objectionable familiarity.
In Ilollund a lady is expected to re
tire precipitately n she siioulu eDter a
store or a restaurant where men are
congregated. She waits until they
have transacted their business and de
parted. . Ladies seldom rise in Spain to re
ceive a male visitor, ana they rare
ly accompany him to the door.
ior a Spaniard to give a laay even
his wife his arm when out walking
is looked upon as a decided violation
of propriety.
In Persia, among the aristocracy, a
visitor sends notice an hour or two be
fore calling, and gives a day'B notice
if the visit is one of great importance.
He is met by servants before he reaches
the house, and other consideration,
are shown him according to relative
rank. The left, and not the right is
considered the position of honor.
No Turk will enter a sitting-room
with dirty shoes. The upper classes
wear tight-fitting shoes, with galoches
over them. The latter, which receive
all the dirt and dust, are left outside
the door. The Turk never washes in
dirty water. Water is poured over his
hands, bo that when polluted it runs
away.
In Syria the people never tnke off
their caps or turbans when entering
tho house or visiting a friend, but they
always leave their shoes at the door.
There are no mats or scrapers outside
and the floors inside are covered with
expensive rugs, kept very clean in
Moslem houses and used to kneel upon
while saying prayers. ,
THE CONSCIENCE FUND.
Founded F.arly In This Oiiturjr, It Mow
Amounts to AImiuI 70.0011.
The "Conscience Fund" has figured
in the statements of the treasury de
partment for over eighty year, say F.
L. Crisman in Lippiucott'. It wa
opened by the register of the treasury
department in INI I and iipM rs in the
general fund of the govornment under
the head of miscellaneous receipts.
Like other assets of the treasury it can
m used for any purjiosc that emigres
may deem proper. It origin was due

to render service as nurses to truant
officers. They should be left free to
keep adults out of mischief. There is
no more vexatious, tantalizing duty
than that of keeping track of a com
pany of mischievous boys. They are
likely to absorb the attention of any
policeman who has them on his beat.
Consequently, older and worse offend
ers are given a freer hand. Nor is
there anything that demoralizes a po
liceman more than that kind of serv
ice. He is apt to lose his interest in
larger game and sink into a spy on the
conduct of urchins, who will then
make it a point to fill up his time with
larks and escapades. The curfew
tends to take this strain off the police.
OF
HUMAN KIND.
Tiie True
Story of a French Convict at
Toulon,
No criminal is altogether hardened;
springs of kindness and feeling for his
fellow-beings still exist within his
nature, if one could but find them. The
author of "Secretsof the Prison-House"
tells a true story of a French convict at
Toulon.
Among the free laborers, who work
side by side with the prisoners,' was an
Italian who always treated them with
great kindness, and became in conse
quence very much beloved. One day,
however, tho Italian seemed to be much
depressed, and he confided to his fellow-laborers
the fact that lie was ter
ribly in want of money. Not many
days after, one of the convicts escaped,
sought the Italian out at his home, and
said to him:
"Now I give myself up to you. My
capture will bring you the reward of a
hundred francs, and that will help you
out of your difficulties."
For a long time the Italian refused
to take advantage of the fugitive's sclf
sacrilice, but at length he yielded and
leu buck the prisoner.
Ihe wife of a well-known journalist
was roused one night, when she was
alone in the house, by sounds which
convinced her that burglars must be
below. The courageous old lady rose
and went downstuirs into the dining
I'oom, where she found a mun in the
act of rilling tho sideboard. lie
promptly knocked her down, but as
soon us she could recover herself she
got up and quietly took a seat. Then
she ndtlrcHsed the. burglar.
"I suppose you have been driven to
these- evil courses by want," she said;
"but why add cowardly violence to
your crime? You see 1 am an old
woman old enough to be your mother.
Is your mother still alive? Ho you rc
meiiilicr her? What would you say or
lo to a man who struck her In the f ice
and kniH'Ued her dowu?"
Her words hud a marked effect on
the. housebreaker. He was evidently
moved to the heart.
"I'm sorry, ma'nm," he said, "und
I'm ashamed of what I'm doing, I
won't take anything Wlonging to you
except this live-pound note, lint I
reiillj am in desperate straits, and I
want money bndly."
He emptied his HK'ket of the silver
he had taken, but with the fuH'con
sentof the old lady made off with Un
live pounds. Some time afterward an
enveos- retii-hed her, nddressed Iu a
strange hand, und in it wa a Ilvc
oound note.

PURE
CHAMPIONS IN THEIR LINE.
Absent-Mtnded People Who Were Simply
Wonders.
They are telling a story of a Dutch
man who presented himself at the reg
istar's oilice recently to obtain a license
for his approaching marriage, and who,
on being asked the name of the bride,
was compelled to confess that it had
quite escaped him, and he had to re
turn home for the necessary informa
tion. It's a pretty good story of ab
sence of mind, but there are others on
record that are even better. There
have been cases where persons have
even forgotten their own names.
Lessing, the historian, was subject
to the most wonderful fits of abstrac
tion. One night, returning home late,
he rang the front door bell, and when
a servant called out from an upper win
dow that the professor was not at
home, he said: "All right, I'll come
again," and walked away.
There was an English clergyman,
Rev. Oeorge Harvest, who was engaged
to a daughter of the bishop of London,
but on the day of his wedding went
fishing, und forgetful of the appointed
hour did not appear at tho nuptials.
The lady broke off the match.
Malting Itnin In India.
A rainmaker in India has an appar
atus consisting of a rocket capable of
rising to the height of a mile, contain
ing a reservoir of ether; in its descent
it opens a parachute, which causes it
to come down hlowly. The ether is
thrown out in fine spray, and its ab
sorption of heat is said to lower the
tempcruture about it sufficiently to
condense the vapor and produce a lim
ited shower.
GOOD FIGHTERS.
Chinese Soldier Are Fearless and Infinite
In Numbers.
Our knowledge of the modern China
man in battle has been derived from
the wars of 1883 and 1884 with the
French.
According to the French narratives
of the war in Tonquin, the Chinese
generals were deficient in strategy; but
the rank und file fought so desperately,
with such utter disregard for life, that
they generally won the buttles, and
the campaigns' ended in French re
treats. Admiral Courbet covered him
self with glory by his operations on the
P.iver Min, which ended iu the destruc
tion of the Chinese arsenals and ship
yards, but the udmirul hud to make all
haste to withdraw lib force; if he hud
delayed, not a ship nor a man would
have escaped, ays the Sun Francisco
Argonaut.
So at the conflict on the island of
Formosa. The speed with which the
French landed wa outstripped by the
soed with which they reembarked.
French officers who have seen the Chi
nese in the. field shake their head
when foreigner talk lightly of their
military prowess. In fact, the ques
tion sH-uks for itself, (iiven a prac
tically indefinite number of fighting
men, every one of whom I ready to die
on the field, it gi- without saying
that jt inn not lie overcome by a weaker
force.
