KENOsHA, WIS, JUNE 4, 1880.

A Moscow correspondent describes
the misery and starvs ton prevailing in
the South and Southeast Of Russia as
unknown in the memory Of man. No
food is to be got for the horses and cat
tie for any money, and the animals are
consequently dying everywhere of starry
alton in the Transural steppes and the
Don steppes.

NOBODY in Nevada ever calls Joseph
Fnrmann liar, because he is quick to
shoot. He is reported by the San Fran
cisco Argus as telling about cave
which he had lately entered. "Sud-
denly" he said, my pick, which I was
carrying over my shoulder, gave a sud
den cant around as if somebody had
either pushed or pulled it. In the ex-
element O. the moment let go O. the
shovel, an could hear it goin' whiz
through the air, an about five seconds
arter I heerd somethin' strikin' bang
agin' a rock. All this time the pick was
draggin' me on. I reaches round for
my pistol. and the derned pistol, sir,
was stickin' out straight from my side,
an jest KEEP in the sheath by the waist
strap, an it was pullin' me on, too. "
With great particularly and frequent
pauses for expressions of disbelief, If
anybody cared to risk any, the miner
described his investigation, which he
gave the following climax: Il came to
the edge of a deep ditch an strainin' my
eyes down inter it I sees five skeletons
layin' at the bottom, an five picks
alongside q them. An then looks
across this ditch or chasm, an sees q

AIMING IN ARCHERY.
instructions by Americas Cham-
piOn Bowman.

The first principle of aiming is to be
sure to have the arrow, in drawing, di-
rectly under the right eye and lying
directly in the line of vision of that eye
as it looks at the point of aim. To do
this perfectly, observe the following di-
rections:
l. Take position and mock the arrow
as heretofore described
2. Raise the bow with the left hand,
drawing back the string with the right
hand as the bow is lifted.
3. When the left hand has reached
the due elevation for the shot, take aim
with the right eye (without closing the
left eye) over the point of the arrow.
4. The aim being thus taken, finish
the draw by bringing the right hand to
point just below the chin, and there
loose.
If the above rules are strictly followed
and the arrow, from the fixing OF the
aim to the point of loosing, has been all
the time kept under the right eye, the
shot will be in the direct line of vision
of that eye.
r following this practice Of aiming,
the upper limb of the bow must be
slanted to the right sufficiently to carry
the bow-string entirely out of the verti-
cal plane of vision of the right eye,
otherwise two troubles will arise. In the
first place the string will be between
the eye and the arrow; and, secondly,
the string will touch the chin before the
draw is finished to the loosing-point.
When the bow is slanted to the
right the arrow can lie directly under
the eye, while the string is drawn to the
loosing-point under the chin, and when
let go the arrow will fly directly away
before the eye in perfect line
Before beginner in archery can sue
cessfully practice aiming on correct
principles, he must fully understand the
laws of vision connected Herewith. By
fixing the eye steadily upon some distant
point, it will be discovered that this par
ticular point is seen by direct vision,
and all others by indirect vision. Now
In aiming, the direct vision is fixed upon
the point of aim, and the pile of the ar
row is made to cover this point but the
gold of the target and the entire length
IF the arrow are seen by indirect vision,
except when the gold, as in point-blanll
shooting, is also the point of aim.
The first thing then to master. is per-
feet control Of the vision of the right
eye. To do this, some archers are COM
PEELED to close the left eye, very Flap
pearing thing indeed, which should be
by all means avoided. To test your Wis
ion take an arrow by the feathered end,
and hold it in the right hand pointing it
at some distant object, keeping both
eyes open. When the point of the ar
row seems to cover the object, close the
left eye. If then the object is still
covered. you are aiming with your right
eye. A little practice in this way will
| perfect your vision so that you can aim
with your right eye and at the same time
keep the left one open. Maurice

A LITTLE company of men and women
in Lewiston, Me-, engaged in an i'm
promptu discussion Of the question :
Why didn't the lions eat Daniel 2"
One side maintained that the reason was
because Daniel was too good, and the
other that the lions were not hungry.
The upshot of the matter was that they
got into a wrangle, and the police were
called in to suppress the the row. They
carried one man to Jail for striking one
of the women.

Air the Bedding.

The desire of an energetic house
keeper to have her work completed at
an early hour in the morning often
causes her to leave one of the most i'm
portant items Of neatness undone. The
most effectual purifying Of beds and
bedclothes cannot take place if a sea-
sonable time is not allowed for the
free circulation of pure air to remove
all impurities which have collected dur
ing the hours of slumber. At least
two or three hours should be allowed
for the complete removal Of atoms of
insensible perspiration which are alb
sorbed by the bed. Every day this air
ing should be done, and occasionally
bedding constantly used should be car
ried into the open air, and, when prac-
ticable, left exposed to the sun and wind
for half day.

A CONSIDERABLE steel-making indus

A CONSIDERABLE steel-making indus
try exists in the present day in China,
on the Upper Yangtze, whence the steel
is sent to Tien-tsin for shipment and
distribution. It fetches much higher
prices than the Swedish steel imported
into the country. The Chinese metal
lurgists recognize three kinds Of steel,
namely, that which is produced by add
ing unwrought iron while the mass is
subject to the action Of fire; pure iron,
many times subjected to fire, and native
steel, which is produced i'll the south
west. The different names for steel are
TWAIN kang, or ball steel, from its round
ed form; kwan kang, or sprinkled steel;
wei tee, or false STEEL The Chinese,
apparently, have known how to manu-
factrlre steel from the very earliest ages.

the ignorance of people of their own

once asked him what his next lecture
would be upon, and, being told ''the cir

should certainly attend, for she had been
troubled with the complaint for long
time.

How to Boil aud Stew.

To do either properly the food
must be immersed ut the beginning
in actually boiling water, and the
water must bo allowed to reach the
boiling point again Immediately, and
to boil for five minutes. The action
Of the boiling water upon the sur
fact of either meat or vegetables is
to harden it slightly, but enough to
prevent the escape of either juice or
mineral salts. After the pot con-
tanning the food has begun to boil
the second time, it should be re-
moved to the side of the fire and
allowed to simmer until it is done.
This simmering or stewing extracts
all the nutritious qualities OF either
meat or vegetables. The pot should
be kept closely covered unless for a
moment when it is necessary to re-
move the scum. The steam will con-
dense upon the inside of the cover,
and fall back into the pot in drops
OF moisture, if the boiling is slew.
Do not think that rapid boiling cooks
faster than the gentle process re-
commend. After the pot once boils
you cannot make its contents cook
any faster if you have fire enough
under it to run steam engine. Re-
member if you boil meat hard aud
fast it will be tough and tasteless,
and most of its goodness will 60 up
the chimney or ont of the window
with the steam.
