JOSH BILLINGS ON BEER.
Why he believes it will not intoxicate
His famous beer test act.

hav finally cum to the conclusion
that lager beer as beverage is not
Intoxicating. / have been told so by
a German who said he had drunk it
all night long just to try the expert
ment, and was obliged to go home
entirely sober. / hav seen this same
man drink eighteen glasses, and if he
was drunk it was in German, an no
body could understand it.
1t is proper enuf to state that this
man kept lager beer saloon, and
could have no object in stating what
was not strictly thus.
l believe him TO the full extent OF
my ability. Inever drank but three
glasses of lager in my life, and that
made my head ontwist as though it
was hung on the end of a string; but
/ was told it was owing to my bile
being out OF place; and / guessed it
was so, for / never billed over wus
than / did when | got home that mite.
My wife thot was goin to die, and
/ was afraid that j shouldn't, for it
seemed as tho every thing / had ever
eaten in my life was coming to the
surface; and / believe that if my wife
hadn't pulled off my boots, just as
she did, they would hav cum thun-
dering up, too.
o, how sick | wuz fourteen years
ago, and / can taste it now.
/ never had so much experience in
so short time.
If any man should tell me that la
ger beer wasn't Intoxicating, should
believe him but ifhe should tell me
that wasn't drunk that mite, but that
my stummick was out of order. I
shud ask him to state over, in a few
words, just how a man felt and acted
when he was set up.
If | warn't drunk that mite, ] had
some ov the most natural simtims
that man ever had and kept sober.
In the first place it was about
eighty rods from where / drank the
lager beer to mi house, and Twas jest

The Best of the Team.

A Eureka teamster is noted for the
affection he betrays for one Of the
mules in his outfit, the most obsti-
nate and mangy-looking animal in
in the string, and his tenderness for
Nancy, as he calls her, has passed in
to proverb, Upon being rallied
upon this peculiarly by chum, he
discoursed as follows: II used to
have sweetheart back in Iniiany
that was orful gone on, andthis yere
cussed mule has so many pints in
common that my heart just yearns
over her. She were as likely gal
as'ever run bare-footed in cornfeld,
but she was too cussed obstinate to
enjoy good health. You never knew
Just how to take her. She'd look
you right smiling in the eye, and
you'd think there ware more sugar in
her nor in New Orleans merlasses
hogshead, and if you laid your hands
on her unexpected like, she'd kick in
less than minute. That's Just the
way with that mule. / reckon she's
cost me nigh onto $500 for harness,
saying nothing about doctors bill
for broken leg but you get into a
place where the mud's deep and the
rest of the team kerhummixed, and
call onto her for assistance, an my eyes
if she won't pull herself clear out Of
her hide to help you out Of your
trouble. That ware the very way
with Nancy. The summer before /
emigrated / were mighty sick with
the ager, and got the milk fever on
top Of that, and Iware pretty nearly
ready to cross over Jordan, but she
nussed me, helped her ole dad all day
and set up with me nights until she
was shadder, but she pnlled me
through, and then she advised me to
emigrate to Californy. / hated to 60
away it ware like persuading hun
CRY boss to leave pail of oats +; but
thar war no use, she were bound to

Bees.

t
SCIENTIFIC CULTURE.-The sue
cessful cultivation of the honey bee,
depends upon a correct knowledge
of the laws 10y which the economy OF
of the hive is regulated comply with
these laws and you reap golden
harvest, disregard them and disap-
pointment and loss are the certain
results. The culture Of the honey
bee has engaged the attention of in
telligent and enterprisiDg men of all
ages; yet within few years, by the
introduction of improvised movable
frames and other improvements, this
pursuit, always attractive, is rendered
no longer a business of /" luck or
chance, but as certain and more re-
munerative, with smaller capital than
any other rural occupation. - Bee

Women and Property.

There can be no question that for
women good registered bonds are
specially desirable, being less trouble
some than any other securities. But
real estate, and few remarks on its
it often happens that women inherit
management may be useful A very
wise man Of fifty years. experience in
taking care of property, espscially-for
women, once said to me: If a wo-
man is left with a nouseat all suited
to her condition, | always advise her
to keep it, a woman with house
of her own-a Rome-will usually
get along even bn very small In
come and she all her family, if she
have one, will j much happier if
they have hope than they could be
wi;siea-A-s~ y e)srrs -rr-rtifrefr.
own, they are usually unsettled and
subject to many discomfortsp And
so, if a woman inherits other real es-
tate, and it yields her moderate in
come, it will scarcely be wise to part
with it, especially if it is Situated in a
village or city that is growing. The
mere retention of real estate in these
circumstance has made thousands rich.
Avoid mourning a debt for the i'm
provenlent of such property. A lady
recently called on me for advice
She inherited $4,000 of real estate,
which yielded her fair income,
equal to every want. But not con-
tented, she borrowed money to make
costly improvements and to erect
new buildings. Now, with the de-
cline of property, her rentroll hardly
pays her interest and taxes, and she
is liable to heavy losses by foreclos-
ure. Of course good securities, OF
whatsoever sort, should be kept, that
is, not exchanged for others for the
sake ola little hoped-for gain. While
it is not wise to carry all ones eggs
in one basket, it should be remember
ed that eggs are liable to break in
handling. 1t is easy to loosen up
property, but not easy to re-establish
it.-BdSdr.

& Whal' whar do Won shoot EN-,
misterSa inquired the old man quietly,
as he put his patch and bullet on the
muzzle of his rife, which he held be-
tween his legs while he rammed the
charge home, and then as stray
bird few overhead he raised and
dropped it.
is that ar the way you want it
done, mister p
The objector said nothing, and the
cunning proceeded; butit soon be-
came evident that the sportsmen were
doing the cunning and the old man
was doing the shooting. The lock
tumbled off his gun occasionally, ard
the barrel had a loose habit of part
ing company with the stock; but the
old man had a pocket full OF strings,
and as fast as it gave out he tied it
up and made ready to shoot when
ever bird showed, and be occasion
ally varied the monotonv of the pro-
ceedings by coolly blazing into the
bushes, whereupon his mean looking
dog would rush in and drag out a
dead rabbit.
The Easton party hunted faithfully
according to their lights, and shot
upon the most scientific principles
but, somehow, the old man got the
game, as the count showed FIVE quail
and pheasant among the three for
the days work, while Mr.. Hertzog
troddled along under twenty-five
quail and four rabbits; and as they
sat on the board pile at the depot
bargaining for the old mans lot, he
remarked
s.Ye see, gents, Old Residenter
be'ant much Of a gun to look at. She

All you's got to do is jest to grease
