A Clean Skin.

Most of our inyalids are such, and millions of more healthy people will become invalids, for the want of paying the most ordinary attention to the requirements of the skin. The membrane is too often regard ed as a covering only, instead of a complicated piece of machinery, scarcely second in its texture and sensitiveness 10 the ear and eye. Many treat it with as little refer ence to its proper functions as if it were nothing better than a bag of bones. It is this Reconsideration for the skin that is the cause of a very large proportion of the diseases of tEe world. If, as claimed by some scientists, four-fifths, in bulk, of all we elt and drink must either pass of through the skin or be turn ed back upon the system as a pois- on, and that life depends as much upon these exhulations through the skin as upon inhaling pure air through the lungs, it must be of the most vital importance to keep the channel free.

"WhislSy Straight

An Austin paper tells an incident of the campaign: At Galena there is but one saloon, and that is kept by a democrat. A party of politi- clans visiting the town, naturally found their way into the saloon, and invited "the boys" to " stand in One of the politicians, who is mak- ing his canvass with the brake put down on the whisky proposition, called for some port wine. Port wine !" cjaculated the proprietor, in q tone of anger and astonishment, "why, you cnnlounded scrub, do you think this is republican sa- loon? This is a democratic house, and l don't keep any thing bnt whis- ky straight, and you'll take whisky straight or nothing" There Was blood in the proprietor's eye, aud as reached his hand under the counter, and the politician heard the click of the hammer of a self-cocker, he mildly asked to be excused, and said he guessed he would take lit. tie whisky straight. And he gulp, ed his dose of lightning without a murmur-and all was quiet on the | Potomac.

AHnnnY Centennrinn.

Aight-heartcd centenarian crack cd her last joke in Detroit hospit- al one day last week, and with a smile on her withered face, passed thence to auother, and possibly, more serious world. Her name was Margaret Egan, and her age 102 She had lived so long that her rela- lives had lost sight of her, for al- though she had grandchildren who were well-to-do, she was suffered to end her days as pensioner of the Little Sisters of the Poor. But she did not drOop and loose her spirits. She was as happy as the day was long, and used to sing, tell stories and even dance for the crones in the hospital. Every day she would stroll iuto the imfrmary with big jewsiarp and sit there for hours playing uncertain jigs and rickety reels, and contriving to bring back to wan cheeks the flush of excite ment, and to dull eyes the light of other days. Only five days before her death she entertained her com panions in this way, and during her illness she amused herself with her jewsharp. joking. laughing, singing, whistling and smiling, like a girl of sixteen. A few hours before her death the little old lady remarked to the doctor: "I am strong and hearty, and shall live to a good old age" It was her last joke. It is not every centenarian who can trip through the Valley of the Shadow keeping step to the creakiDg jangle of a rusty jewsharp.

Washing Fluid.

Take two parts spirits of turpen- tine, and one of aqua ammonia, and use about two tablespoonfuls of the mixture to a tub of water. Put the mixture into suds as hot as the hand can be borne in; put in the clothes and let them soak about an hour before beginning to wash. The labor will be lessened about one-half, and enough soap saved to pay for the fluid, besides the wear- ing of the clothes will be lessened 50 per cent, and less rubbing will be required. The clothes do not rot nor fade under this treatment, nor will any offensive odor be imparted. This recipe cost s5, and i7 worth double the amount.

A Hard Worked Princc.

A W OThCu
 There has been good deal said of the popularity of the Prince of Wales among the French, and he certainly has made many friends for himself and country by his lively service in behalf of the Parisian ex- position, But he does some very hard work, as will be seen by the following fiom the Paris corrcspon- dence of the London NcuS: The Prince of Wales did, as well as the Duke of Aota, join the Marshal in the Compiegne battue, and the French papers say that the English Prince made the largest bag out of HOO head of game killed. His Royal Highness had a hard days work. for in the evening he went with the Princess Alexandra to the Francais to see Octave Feuillett's Sphinr revived at his special re- quest. Mdlle. Croizette died in the poisoning scene with realism that long ago made her famous. The Prince sOf Wales went behind the scenes and congratulated the actors and actresses on their great success in presenting the play.

Raising Pigs for Breeding.

Pigs that are to be kept for breed- CTS should have a mixed diet-plen- ty of bone and muscle forming food and ample opportunity for exer- else. Ifpermited the run of a good pasture (clover is the best) mod crate supply of corn will do them good and aid in promoting healthy growth. But if the circumstances of the breeder are such that he can not have the benefit of a pasture for his pigs, then he must endeavor to supply substitute by using a variety of food-such as skinned milk, wheat middlings, ground oats, mixed with oil-meal occasionally. A most excellent food may be gre pared by mixing six parts ot good peas and five parts of corn meal and one part of oil-meal; or the peas, corn and fax-seed may be cooked and fed without grinding if desired. Oats and peas ground together and cooked make an excellent food.
 Cooked potatoes mixed with corn meal make a good combination; in short all the various grains and roots raised on the farm may be used to advantage in raising pigs, and they should nearly all be used when the pigs are not allowed the run of a good pas ture.

Is the Red Man FadIngr


 The current notion that the American Indians were gradually fading away before the onward pro- gross of the white man has, of late, received several rude shocks. Not the least forcible of these are the arguments advanced by Colonel Mallery. He shows that official returns of the birth and death rates of a large number of the tribes over which, in accordance with treaty. the United States government exer- cises some measure of control, indi- cate an excess of births, and this has gone on for long period, so that some Indians, the Sioux con federacy for instance, have quad rupled their number in 140 years, and more than doubled within the last 30 years. According to this authority, and it cannot be denied that he has made anexhaustive and impartial study on the subject, there are nearly, if not quite, as many In dians living on this continent north of the Mexican border now as there were living in the same territory at the time of Columbus {; while if those who have a mixed but par tially Indian ancestry were taken into account, the number would be considerably larger now than it was four hundred years ago. Col. Nal lery estimates the nnmber of Indians north of the Rio Grande river at about 50O,0OO souls, and states that this amount would be liberal com putatlon even fol precolonial days. At that time the red men were not found scattered over the inland dis tricts of the country; on the cen- trary, they were never far removed from the seaboard, the great lakes and the principal rivers. The rest of this continent seems to have beer wholly uninhabitted but travellers and eolOnists met Indians wher traversing these water routes, anC inferred from this that the land ly , ing back of them was equally vel inhabited. If Col. Mallery's deduc lions are true, the national consci ence can be relieved of a heavy P load, for the terrible effect of civili ration upon the Indian has been tn, subject of more poetic and sympa thedc regret, than any other phase in our history.
