How the Captain's Patent Worked.

Having piped all hands to splice the
main-bracc. the Cap'n had the first mate
oi the farm tow out the horse and
wagon, and, ascending the quarterback
of the craft, he took possession Of the
tilIer-ropes (as hr styled the rcins), and
said:
Now. boys. my invention Is very
simple might make a million dollars
out of it mcbbe, but | ain't going to
patent it, you can ail use it if you want
to. I've simply fastened twenty
fathom line onto the mizzen axle Of the
craft, and put on n stout grapncl.
shall bring this here hoss along the road
under double-rcefed topsails, and then
one Of you cusscs scare him-opcn an
umbrella Mt him. or something; then.
when he goes tearing along about
twenty-five knots an hour and won't
answer to his helm. I'll just drop the
anchor and ride on the gale. Git upm
The horse came jogging gently down
the road, when, according To the pro-
gramme, the first mate pushed out and
hit him a belt over the nose with
blanket. The terrified animal stood on
his hind legs for moment and then
struck q course northwest by north with
great celebrity. The interested specta-
tors behcld the fearless cap'n sitting un-
moved. though the buggy bent and
Careened before the breeze; then. with
triumphant smile, they saw him htave
out the anchor with merry "Yo,
heavc, ho" The grapncl dragged for
few moments in the treaCherous sands OF
the road. then caught in n rock. Cap'n
Cornwel rose into the mir like BIRD on
the wing and sailed maicstically for
ward, alighting on his ear; the horse
stood on his head for second, and then
resumed his onward course Mt the rate
of Mt least seventy miles an hour. and
amid frightful crashing. ripping, tear
ing and smashing, all the wagon van
ished into thin air except piece of the
mizzen axle, TO which the anchor had
been fastened.
Cap'n Cornwell can't precisely under
stand why, when the tackle held. he
wasn't able to ride out the gale. but II
not discouraged. and will repeat the cx-
pertinent ~ soon rs hc has had new
buggy built upon lines of his own de-
signing. Life insurance canvassers are
bearing down upon him from all quar-
ters, and the liveliest interest il mani

the gallant captain all success. Chicago

Local Advertising.

The virtue Oi advertising IS of more
consequence, in a general way. than il is
often credited with. too contracted
view is 50 frequently thrown around
its salutary influences that those who
read business card seen to think that
IFS import is of but little consequence
to any one besides the advertiser. This.
however, is great mistake, for the
community at large is benefited, ac-
cording To our way of thinking, by
every business card of a town store APP
pcaring in the local papers. 1t needs no
Tery skillful reasoning To elucidate the
proposition, for their can be no better
method adopted 10 improve "A village,
townor city, than that which keeps the
bulk Of trade at home. BY so doing the
results Of industry are widely diffus-d in .
the expenditures made. society becomes
cooperative to considerable extent.
material improvements are encouraged,
and pride OF place is fostered. Our live
store-kccpcrs are beginning to under
stand the value of advertising, and our
residents fail not TO reward them for
their enterprise. a cotcmporary puts
the matter in this wise when the
business men Of a town fail 10 advertise
extensively they diminish the import
ancc and trade of the place. and per-
nit more cnterprising localities to take
the latter from them Although done
for their individual interest, advertisers
should be looked on by citizens Of the
town where they reside. as in some
sense public benefartors. and they
should be encouraged accordingly. One
merchant who advertises extensively is
worth TO his own town and its people
more than forty who never show them
selves in print, and should be for this
reason alone preferred, assuming that he
is, of course. fair business man.

We have just had foreign guest of
our house in, whom we were all much in
teresi ed-a young Japanese. the son of n
gentleman In northern Japan. lie has
been in California more than n year.
and came East with the embassy, pass
ing some days with them at Salt Lake
City, Of which place and its people he
says many very funny things. But what
we are going To tell you now is how rfe
boys sometimes amuse themselves in
Japan. lie says that on his fathers place
which is on n large plateau surrounded
by high hills-is an artificial fish pond.
In it are n great many fish of species he
has not seen here. that are about foot
long. and very beautiful in color and
form. They are as playful and rs tame
as the kittens on our hearths. One of
his fayorite amusements was going to
this pond and knocking on the edge of
the tank with some hard substance to
make noise, when every head would be
turned in the direction OF the sound. and
every fin employed in making for him.
the fish expecting some treat from his
hand. IT. TO tease them, he threw moth
ing in Mt first, but put his empty hand
into the water with his fingers ali spread
out, they would all gather round 1t and
seize his thumb and fingers in their
mouths, till he had rs many fish rs he
had thumbs and fingers, playfuliy snap
ping and biting at them, rs we have all
seen puppies do.
But this paradise of the Japanese boy
was often rudely broken in upon. for il
was not kept expressly rs plaything
for boys, but was the source which sup
piled the fish for the table Whenever
fish is wanted for the dinner. the cook
goes 10 the tank and knocks. and when
the poor unsuspecting things swim up to
her. she catches such of them as please
her. and before they know where they
are going, she has them in the pot or pan
on the fire.
This young Japanese expressed much
surprise st seeing CranbeTries eaten at
table, and said that in the mountains of
Japan they grow very large and beauti-
ful, but are never cooked. Some old man
occasionly goes up to the mountain and
picks a large basket of them, which he
brings on his shoulders down to the
town. Here the boys gather about him.
and for small coin purchase the right
to crowd their pockets with them. And
what use do you think they make cf
this otherwise useless fruit? The boys
blow the glowing berries through rattan
tubes, as our boys blow white beans
through tin ones. That's what cranber-
rics are used for in Japan, where they
grow in great perfection.

blue color, from the suspended rock mud
issuing from beneath the grinding gla-
cier-onc smooth sheet sweeping back
five or six miles, like one OF the lower
reaches of great river. At the head
the water is bounded by barrier wall
of blush ice, from five 10 six hum
dred feet high, n few mountain tops
crowned with snow appearing beyond
1t. On either hand stretched series of
majestic granite rocks from three to four
thousand feet high. in some places bare,
in Others forested, and all well patched
with yellow green chaparTel and flowery
gardens, especially about half way up
from top to bottom. and the whole built
together. in general, varied way into
walls, like those of Yosemite valley, cx-
tending beyond the other. while their
bases are buried in the glacier. This is
in fact II Yosemite valley in process of
formation, the modelling and sculpture
of the walls nearly completed and well
planted, but no groves as yet. or gardens.
or meadows on the raw and unfinished
bottom. The whole front and brow of
this majestic glacier are gashcd and
scuipturcd into maze of yawning
chasms and crcvasscs, and bcwidering
variety OF strange architectural forms,
appalling to the strongest nerves. but
novel and beautiful beyond measure
clusters OF giittering lance tipped spires,
gables and obclisks, bold outstanding
bastions and plain mural cliffs. adorned
along the top with frcttcd cornice and
battlcmcnts, while every gorge and ere
vase, chasm and hollow was filled with
light. Along the sides we could see the
mighty flood grinding against the gran
lte with tremendous pressure, rounding
the outswclling bosses. deepening and
smoothing the rctreating hollows, and
shaping every portion Of the mountain
walls into the forms they were meant to
have. when in the fullncss of appointed
time the ice-tool should be lifted and set
aside by the sun. Back two or three
miles from the front tn" current is now
probably about 200 feet deep; but when
we examine the walls. the groovcd and
rounded features, 50 surely glacial, show
that in the earlier days of the ice age
they were all ovcrswegt. this glacier
having flowed Mt height OF from three

4 Sad Mistake.

The Rev. George Trask. OF Mnssachu-
setts, was noted throughout the State as
nm ahic and eloquent lecturer against to-
bacco and all intoxicating drinks. At
one time he had addressed n large and
attentive audience. and, among other
things. said in his lecture that no man
hahitually using tobacco and whisky
could expect to live more than five or
six years after beginning 10 use them.
And So earnest aud positive was he in
his address. and 80 attentive his audi
ence that at it's close he confidently chnl-
lenged any reply, and invited any Ques =
tions on the subject. Afler moments
silence n man rose and said - like
what you have said. Mr.. Trask. but
would like TO ask one question: One of
my ncighbOrs is an old man, some sew.
cntyfve years old. and he has used to-
bacco and whiskey-all he could get
ever since he was thirty-tive years old
that is. for some forty-fye years. How
do you reconcile that with what you
said. that n man using both tobacco and
whiskey couldn't live more than five or
six years?"
Mr.. Trask was somewhat startled. and
to tain time for collecting his thoughts.
began asking some questions.
IlV" olh dlu you say AIllH man
was 80
Some sevcnty-fve years.
'' And he has been using both tobacco
and whiskey ever since he was thirty
fve?"
Yes, using them constantly and
freely"
We'll. what kind of man Is he ?
Does he seem 10 take much interest in
business. or in anything that is going
on?"
"Wa'al no. don't think he does"
=" Does he seem to love anybody"
"Wa'al. no.
Does he seem to hate anybody" ?"
mo, don't think he does; he seems
sort oi Indifferent to everything"
"Well," said Mr.. Trask. who by this
time had gathered up his wits. your
old man has evidently been dead Tor
some forty years, and the only mistake
you've made is that you did not bury
him"
Amid the shout of laughter that rose
upon the answer, the audience broke up,
and Mr.. Trask was relieved.

Moscow society Is considerably exer-
cised by the suicide of one of its bright
Est ornaments, the young and lovely
Countess Vera Koscheleff. who a short
time ago suddenly disappeared from her
palace in the old Russian capital. only
two DAYS after her solemn betrothal 10
Count Heimann. which had been cele-
brated with festive reioicings on an un-
usually magnificent scale. No ono could
imagine whittier she had gone until her
steward received n letter from her.
written at her chateau in the Crimea,
wherein she informed him that "she
was going to bathe in the river running
through her estate, and should not re-
turn alive from her bath" She also de-
scribed the exact spot near which her
body would be found in the water.
Search was of course made with al pos
sible pTumptitude. and Ii resulted IN the
discovery of the beautiful young coun-
tess corpse sewn up in large straw
sack and sunk in tho river. The seams
were found to be in tie interior of the
sack. proving that Vera KoschelefT had
deliberately sewn herself up in the sack
on the river bank and then cast herself
into the stream. In another letter. adj
dressed 10 one of her unclcs. and re-
ccived by him some time after her death.
she gave as her reason for enclosing her
self In n sack previously to drowning
herself, her extreme fear of crawtish
and water beetles.

Old.Fashioned Garments.

My first recollection of fashion il that
old men, especially those of the better
classes. wore short brccchcs. rs they
were called. with knee buckles and long
stockings. closely fitting the legs Young
men and old men not governed by fash
ion wore pantaloons or brcechss, with
legs descending to the ankles. In q short
while pantaioons suppluntcd breechcs.
except in rare cases of old or eccentric
men. Pantaloons, made at first 10 fit
the limbs. soon began to be cut accord
ing to the arbitrary dictates of fashion.
At one time the legs were of enormous
size--large enough for mail bags-and at
another they were made of elastic stuff
and fitted to the limbs ~ closely as the
skin. Boots underwent changes quite
as striking as did pantaloons. When
was boy old men wore fair-top boots
They were long enough to reach tho
knee. with broad belt Of smooth
leather, of its natural color. around the
top. and the remainder polished with
blaCking. They were pressed down and
rumpled about the legs. SO rs 10 expose
to view considerable portion of the
stocking between the upper edge of the
boot and the knee-buckle. The dandies
wore boots of different style. Their
legs were stiff. reaching rather more
than halfway to the knee. cut Mt the
top and in front in the form of heart.

the lowest point of the indentation.
They were called "Surrow boots :" why.
