A One-Legged ElOper.

The following romantic story is told
by the Albany IN. " Times: What
there is about a man 40 years old, with
a wooden leg, to captivate the heart of
a Massachusetts Yankee girl of 10, it is
difficult to imagine. But Larkin Will
COX, who answers the description, sue
ceeded in doing SO, and they starte d
away from Lanesboro, Berkshire Coun-
ty, to be married. He told her that he
was very wealthy, and owned large bu-
siness blocks in Albany, where he re-
sided, but owing to poor health he had
come out in the country to work on a
farm, to see if he could not get better.
Wilcox was arrested, and it was discov-
ere that he was formerly an engineer
on the Boston and Albany Railroad,
and lost his leg by an accident which
happened when he was drunk. His
residence in Albany was of 10 months
duration, on the hill, for stealing. He
was arraigned at p lttsield, and pleaded
guilty to enticing the young girl away
for the purpose of marrying her against
the consent of her guardian. He was
sentenced to one year in State Prison,
the lowest penalty allowed. by the Mas
sachusetts statute for the offense.

Fashions in Hairdressing.

Very plain styles are now preferred
for dressing the hair for the street and
for mornings in the house. Cable
cords or twisted ropes of hair in two
thick loops are worn at the back of the
head, dropping low, as chatelaines.
The switches made of short hair on
stems will not answer for these ropes,
as long hair is needed to keep the
ropes smooth. These loops are then
fastened together at the nape of the
neck with long brooch of gold or of
faceted steel. The ribbon bows, worn
last season for tying chatelaines, have
fallen into disuse, though small bow
with ends is sometimes placed on the
crown of the head to conceal the termi-
nation of the loops. The front hair is
worn in large waves if it is thick
enough, but if not, an invisible or false
front is used, and is surmouDted by a
nest of finger puff5 directly on the top
of the head. Light blonde hair is still
worn rough and fluffy, but is not regu-
larly creped. Dark hair is worn
smoother than fair hair, and must be
laid fatty in long waves, or in the wa
ter waves that require so little hair, or,
more stylish still, in the Montague Lexis
that are made of thick cdrves laid IT.
regularly on the forehead. Side locks,
just in front of the ear, are turned to-
wards the face. These locks and the
Montague curls are glued down with
bandoline to keep them in place.
Hair oils and pomades have hlp2ily
gone entirely out of use; only the clean
ly bandoline is used. The special %.
ject with the hairdresser is to follow
the shape of the head, displaying its
natural outlines, and, above all, not in
creasing the size. Experienced ha'r-
dressers study each head to bring out
its good points and conceal its bad
ones. If it is too fiat on top, some fin
ger pufS are added there; if it is too
long, the back hair is placed very low,
or else in knot just on top; if it is a
round and very small head, the classic
Grecian couture is used. The Greek
couture may be made very dressy for
evening by few short natural-looking
curls worn dropping behind, while the
front hair and sides are in long, loose
waves. Yellow ivory or else tortoise
shell combs are worn in the back hair,
placed trife to one side. Side combs
are also used again. The French twist
is worn by ladies, who find high Golf
fures becoming. 1t is rolled very high
and as small as possible, and is finished
on top by Recamier bow of hair, or
else cluster of hair loops. The Golf
fures of the time of the First Empire
are said to be coming into use again.
These are liked by brunettes with thick
massive hair, and are copied from por'
traits of Josephine and Hortense. The
front hair is in short, thick curls parted
in the middle.-Neic York Tribune.

A Mountaineering Remedy.

No remedial agent has ever been offered
to the sick and debilitated at all comparable
to Hostettcr's Stomach Bitters, in cases OF
remittent and intermittent feyers, constiPa
ton, nervous ailments, Reclamation and dis
orders involving constitutional weakness or
physical decay. 1t literally "works won
ders" The botanic ingredients which its
spirituous basis holds in solution, act like
charm upon the stomach, and through the
stomach upon the brain, liver, bowels and
nervous system. There is nothing in its
composition that is not salubrious. 1t con-
tains some of the most potent tonics of The
vegetable kingdom and the juices of the best
apcricnt and anti-5ilious roots and herbs
combined with perfectly pure stimulating
element The bitters are peculiarly adapted
to those engaged in exhausting or unhealthy
occupations, as by its use strength is sus-
tanned and the ability OF the system to resist
atmospheric and ether influences prejudicial
to health largely increased.

A Nevada SnOw-SIide.

The Reno (Nev.) Joms7aa! of Jan. 26
says: We were yesterday furnished
with the particulars of a snowslide
which took place in Whites Canyon on
Monday last. The slide occurred at
Loouan's camps, and covered them
both from sight. There were five men
in each camp. Those in the lower
camp were seated about the fire when
the slide came and carried them down
the hill, leaving them covered with
loose snow. These men extricated
themselves easily, and upon looking up
toward the other camp it was nowhere
to be seen. They instantly set to work,
and soon helped their companions out
of their uncomfortable position. Meth
or party suffered any considerable in
Jury, except one in the upper camp,
who was swept into the fire near which
be was sitting. His legs and body were
pinned fast by the weight of snow, but
a strange chance left his arms free, and
he raked snow into the fire and thus
prevented a serious scorehing The
side of his face was badly burned, Blu;
! beyond that no injury was sustained.

mixed lard and butter, cupfuls sugar,
l cupful milk or water, cupfuls -four,
2 two eggs. 2 teaspoonfuls cream-tar-
tar, of soda, l teaspoonful cloves, 1
of cinnamon, raisins if wished; bake
slowly.
RICE PUDDTNG.-3 quarts of new
milk, 1 scant teacupful of rice, tea
cupful of sugar, and of raisins, seed
ed; put in slow oven and bake until
the milk Is the Consistency of thick
cream. Do not soak the lice, as that
will spoil the flavor of the pudding.
BOILED EGGs.-To poll eggs-do not
boil them. Put them in water nearly
at the boiling point, and let them re
main from 6 to s minutes, when they
will be cooked through, but not hard.
To test them, lift one out of the water
if it dries off quick, it is well done.
STEwED BEEF Cut from a cold
roast of beef as much as will be suffi-
Gent for your family, in nice, moder
ately thick slices, fat and lean mixed
together. Slice into small bits carrot,
whole cucumber pickle, and 2 or
8 Irish potatoes, with teaspoonful
of allspice, powdered or whole. Add a
large lump of butter-say a tablespoon
ful-a little water, and thickea, not too
much, with little brown flour, and
stew until very tender. Send 10 table

until it has thickened; then take it off
the fire and stir in the whites of the
eggs beaten to froth. Flavor to taste.
A small portion of the beaten whites of
the eggs can be saved to decorate the
top. Stir into the latter little sugar,
put into psper funnel, press it out
over the top of the pudding according
to fancy, and place it in the oven few
minutes to color.
| APPLE DUMPLINGS.-Take a dozen
raw apples, quarter and core them
nicely. Then take a quart of flour, 3

Half-Bred Buffaloes i'm the
Dairy.

The long mooted question whether
the buffalo can not be successfully util-
lied for dairy purposes, says the Tut,
Field and Farm, is now in a fair way
of being satisfactorily settled. The ap-
prehension hitherto entertained regard
ing the untameable nature of the buff
falo, and that the characteristics of
this branch of the bovine family would
be certain to crop out through inde6-
mite crossings, appears to be totally
groundless. The buffalo, or more prop
erly, the American bison, is being used
extensively in portions of the State of
Nebraska, bordering on the wild plains
of the far West, for stock purposes and
that half and quarter bred females of
the bison family yield an abundant sup
ply of rich milk. A remarkab fea-
ture connected with this cross of the
bison with domestic cattle is the fact
that the color of the bison and the ma
jority of its distinguishing characters
tics disappear after successive crossings.
Its outward conformation is also, in
process of time, in great degree lost
sight of. The bunch or lump of flesh
covering the long spinous processes of
the dorssl vertebre, becomes dimin-
ished with each successive cross, and
will doubtless also disappear entirely
as the original type becomes merged in
the domestic animal.
Mr.. j. w. Cunningham, now living
ct Erie, Pa, formerly of Howard Coun-
ty, Nebraska, in arecent letter present
ed many interesting facts in connection
with this subject, based upon his own
experience, which renders them OF
great Importance to the farmers and
breeders of the Western country. He
writes: "The bufaloes on my ranch
consisted of two young COWS and one
bull. l fed them carefully with the
cows, but kept them confined at night.
In the spring it was discovered that two
of the COWS were with calf by the buff
falo bull. The calves proved to be
both heifers. When three years old
they became mothers, the sire being OF
short-horn stock. The calves were
weaned, and the mothers, although
showing some of the buffalo character
istics, proved to be very good mixers,
quite gentle, giving an average of IA
quarts of milk per day for at least five
months, and such rich milk never saw.
This strain of buffalo stock extended
| through a considerable portion of How.
ard County. have half breed bull Of
this stock, which proves to be both use
full and attractive. There arc others,
learn, in other sections of Nebraska,
who own half and quarter breeds that
prove to be very hardy" From other
sources in the West we learn that the
cross of the American bison with native
and traded short-horn cattle has proved
completely successful, experiments hav
ing been tried on a sufficiently large
scale to satisfy the most skeptical PEG
pie. Utilizing the buffalo for dairy pur
poses is an old custom in the hot coun
tries of the Eastern continent, wher,
almost all the cheese is made of buffal,
milk. The business in this country i
comparatively new and not yet fully de
veloped, but we may reasonably hop
to see it spread like wildfre in tn
course of few years throughout tn
entire Western country.
