Profits of Texas Cattle raising.
!. Houston (Texas) letter.

The profits arising from the invest
ment OF money in pasturing stock in this
region are enormous. Mr.. Alfred Smith,
a prominent citizen OF Austin, Texas,
whom met in the Indian Nation on his
way home from trip to New York, in.
formed me that at the close OF the wal
he invested $1,000 in horses. By ju-
dicious sales from the large number OF
horses this amount purchased, and by
tue shrewd investment OF the money
tuus realized in the purchase of other
horses, and by the natural increase OF
his stock, he is now the owner of four
thousand head.
How much beside he made In cattle,
sheep and land he did not inform me,
but when in Austin l was informed by a
prominent banker that "Old Smith" had
realized half a million by his faith in
the stock pasturage of Western Texas.
Sheep-raislng is said to be source Of
surer profit thar either horses or cattle.
The sheep ranges Of Western Texas are
unsurpassed. 1t is almost impossible
tor any person who goes into the sheep
business in Western Texas with little
capital to keep from getting rich.

TOM.

Yes, Toms the best fellow that ever you knew;
Just listen to this:
When the old mill took fire, and the flooring
fell through,
What do you think my eyes saw through the
fire,
That crept along, crept along, higher and
higher,
But ROBIN, my baby boy, laughing to see
The shining? He must have come there alter
me,
Toddled alone from the cottage without
ANY ones missing him. Then, what shout
Oh, how shou,ed: "For Heavens sake, men,
save little Robinw Again and again
They Il led, but the fire held them back like a
wall; .a
1 could hear them go at it, and at it, and call /:
"Never mind, baby. sit still like man,
We're coming to get you as fast as we can"
They could not see him, but could; he sat
Still on beam, his little straw hat
Carefully placed by his side, and his eyes
Stared at the flame with q baby's surprise,
Calm and u conscious, as nearer it crept.
The roar Of the FIRE above must have kept
The sound OF his mothers voice shrieking his
From reaching the child. But 1 heard IT. 1t
came
Again and again-O God-what a cryl
The axes went faster, saw the sparks fly
Where the men worked like tigers, nor minded
1.-The neat
That scorched them --when, suddenly, there at
their teeG
The great beams leaned in-they saw him
then, Crash
Down came the wall. The men made dash -
Jumped 10 get out of the way-and l thought
"Alfs up with poor little Robin" and brought
Slowly the ann that was least hurt to hide
The sight of the child there, when swift at my
side
Some one rushed by and went right through
the flame
Straight as dart-caught the child-and then
came
| Back with him-choking and crying, but
saved!
Saved sale and sound!
Oh! how the men raved,
Shouted and cried, and hurrahed! Then they
all
Rushed at the work again, lest the back wall
Where was lying away from the fire,
Should fall In and bury me.
Oh! you'd admire,
To see Robin now, he's as bright as dime,
Deep in some mischief, too most Of the time;
Tom 1t was saved him. Now isn't it true
TOMS the best fellow ever you knewp
There's Robin now-see, he's strong as q log
And there comes Tom, too
Yes, Tom was our dog.

French Cookery,

Meats should be selected with view
to the method Of cooking to be adopted.
The French never boil meats unless for
the purpose OF making soups. They re.
gard boiled meats as comparatively
worthless, and never serve them unless
in some prepared form to restore flavor
and lost nutrient principles. We forget
in this country that to boil food, be 1t
meat or be it vegetables, is to extract
from 1t, first, its volatile aroma, then its
essences or juices, its nutritiye power,
and these 60 out into the hot water,
which is stupidly thrown away. Boil
ing meat or vegetables in France is to
make soup, and so saving are they that
even the water In which beans and
caulihowers have been boiled is always
kept TO serve as basis for vegetable
soup. Every liquid which has received
the extracted hayor OF q boiled sub-
stance is looked upon as precious,
and is employed again in some form so
as not to waste the properties which it
has acquired. The entire system OF
French cooking, both In form and
practice, is to save the whole nutritive
elements OF every substance, to pass
into the stomach, instead OF allowing IL

somnambulism Extraordinary.

bullst. A Nine. D., residing at her
counlry-house near st. Amand, France,
mad Tor some time been annoyed by
numerous petty tnelts Of jewelry. lace
and other articles of a similar character.
Entrance to the chateau WAS so difficult
as to be practically impossible; the
fidelity of the servants of lhe family was
beyond question, and the whole affair
was one Of the most impenetrable OF
mysteries, when the lady's son, an
officer just back from Africa, arrived at
the house, and, being informed of the
mysterious disappearances, undertook
70 watch Tor the successful thief. Con-
cealIng himself at night in the corridor
OF the chateau, he watched till O'Clock,
when shsdowy figure made its appear.

and drew the trigger. The cap snapped,
but the arm was not discharged, and by
The flash ot'the cap the officer recognized
The thief. 1t was his mother. Tue lady
was somnambulist. and was in the
habit of stealing her own jewelry and
laces, and hiding them in cupboard In
the corridor. There all tue missing

Tit for Tat,

Among the annoyed and dripping pc.
destrians who sought the aid OF u street
car Yesterday to help shorten the way
home was a man with gray locks and al
old maid with beautiful catchers and
false teeth. Tney seemed to hate each
other at the first sight, for he was hardly
seated beside her when he growled;
s'If you women didn't wear bustles
there'd be twice as much room In stree:
cars" ..... .....-y.
.If men didn't sit cross-legged there'd
be three times as much roomP she
snapped in reply. ... .
I'll was a woman wouldn't be gad-
ding around with The rain pouring down
iu this way" he remarked.
"Yes you would. Ii you were wo.
man you'd want TO go out and show
those feet"
He drew his No. IFS under the seat
flushed up little and growled- ..
"They are not false, like some folks
teethp
"No, and they don't turn up quite az
much as some peoples noseV she an
sWered. f-..
He was silent for time, but present
ly recovered himself and went on
"Thirty years ago women got along
without paint, powder, bustles, straps
buckles and sucn nOnsensical fixings."
'Thirty years ago." she promptly re-
piled; sit was a rare thing to see q
man come out Of saloon wiping his
m outh on his thumb"
He didn't say anything more, but he
wondered il she wasn't looking out oil
the window when he signaled the car.
