A Good Place TO Live.

Alaska is pleasant place to live in,
Notwithstanding all polar bear and ice
berg stories. The climate of the islands,
and of all that part of the mainland that
is bathed by the warm ocean currents
from Japan, is remarkably bland and
temperate, and free from extremes of
heat or cold throughout the year. There
is a. great deal of rainy weather,
but it is of good quality, mild
in temperature, gentle in its fall,
filing the fountains of the deep,
cool rivers, feeding the MOSES and trees,
and keeping the whole land fresh and
fruitful Out of 147 days, beginning
May 18th of this year, rain fell on sixty
five days and forty three were cloudy !;
but on some of thesedays the rain lasted
only q few minutes, and hardly any
could be called stormy or dismal. The
wettest of this weather seems to be per-
fectly healthy, and there is no mildew in
the houses. Thunder is rarely heard
a fash and clap, faint and far away,
once in two or three years. The cause
of so much rain is found In the vapor-
laden winds from japan.

Tba sewouea.Cure.,, ,,

This name has been given, and cor
fectly enough, to a new remedy for
leck-iaw. The account of it sounds
more like waggery than fact, but the
New York Tines tells it "bond. JfdeEgf2 OF
an ingenious French physician, who was
called in to prescribe for a lady suffer
ing from tetanus.
Her family doctor tried every known
remedy without effect. S,
The patient was lying on her back
with her mouth tightly closed, and the
muscles Of her Jaws and throat rigid, 80
that she could not utter a sound.
The new physician went out and pro-
cured a live mouse, and attached a
strong horse-hair to its tail.
Placing the mouse at the foot of the
bed, healloYeds it to creep over the pa
tient the entire length Of her body.
She soon felt the creature, and MOTTO
ing what it was, sprang up and screamed,
''Take it off take it OIL and scolded the
doctor very glibly for horrid, heartless
WretchP
The doctor laughed and so did his at
tendants, for all saw that the mouse had
completely broken the lady's lockiaw'
One nefYous shock has been cured by
another.
She had no return of the tetanus
symptoms; and the doctor was go well
convinced of the value of his four-iegged
homeopathy that he went on trying It
for other nervous diseases, prudently, OF
course, aud it is said that he made the
stnouse-cure" a success every time.

Dr. RICHARDSON says that the body
should be in its best physical condition

organization should become more perfect;
at 20 old age should begin and last for

An OptieaI Delusion.


1t was late on Thursday night when
Peter Simpson came home fuddledr and
fell to experimenting with the night key
on the front door. From within Mrs.
Simpson heard the disturbance, and as
Peter blasphemed in q manner most
shocking to a nervous organization, she
slipped out OF ene areaway and sped to
the nearest policeman, to whom she re-
vealed her fears of bodily violence.
There was only one course to be taken.
Peter Simpson must be locked up. But
to avoid a scene the timOrOus lady
would not venture in her lord and
masters sight, and, with the aid Of her
glasses, for she was quite hear-slghted,
she pointed out recumbent figure
vaguely outlined against the front
stoop, which chs assured Policeman
| Hennessy was the delinquent. To the
station-house the latter was summaflly
conducted, although he demonstrated
hard, and in his delirium not only de-
| MED frightening his wife and his own
identity, but fairly declared his bach
elorhoOd, all of which served to impress
his captor with the excess of Simpsons
iniquity and the enOrmity of his sin
against his cOnfding partner. The lat
ter meantime had taken herself to her
mothers, where she received suitable
coincidence and worked herself into a
state of excitement beftting an
appearance in the Yorkville Police
Court. She was on hand yesterday
morning, so was the prisoner. and it was
touching to witness the gross Ignorance
of each others presence these Christians
maintained Aa
AT last the case was called, and the
lady mounted the stand.
You have been making a brute of
yourself on quite an extensive scale, =
said His Honor, looking over the affi-
davit. This lady says you raised quite
disturbance about the house, and it is
clear from your appearance that you
have been dissipating to an unwarrant-
able extent"
His looks were certainly against the
prisoner. He had decidedly unhand-
some face and no amount of clothes.
Prosperity seemed to be all One-sided in
the Simpson family.
1 don't see what she's botherin' me
| for" urged the culprit. "I didn't do
nothin' to this ere female, sir. Fact is,
7 don't know her from side of sole
leather"
The Court seemed shocked at this
heresy. But it had different effect on
/ the complainant. She whipped out a
little box and, adjusting her glasses,
| turned her eyes on the prisoner. As he
Strengthened up his uncouth form she
gave tiny scream and cried in an in
jured tone, "Ugh, you cTeaturel Lands
alive, you amt my husband"
Z" No mann, thank God," meekly re
turned the prisoner. ~
The complainant became quite rigid
and taking the glasses from her near
sighted eyes, asked what it all meant
Policeman Hennessy's theory obtained
and it doubtless was the right one. The
prisoner had stumbled along as the yer
liable Simpson got in the house, and
pointed out by the complaining wife
had done good service for the erring
husband in a dungeon cell, while thai
worthy, safely indoors, slept the sleep oi
the fuddled.

THREE ia ctions are said to be contend
Eng for the control of Russian policy
the purely reactionary or autocratic
party YFthe reform party aiming to secure
the most important reforms, and the So
called new party, desiring only a few
moderate reforms, such as the decentral-
ization of the Russian administration,
This party does not seek to have parli-
ament, but simply provincial delega-
tions with publication of the civil ser
vice, and the adoption of severe measures
against all destructive agencies, Count
Schodvalof is the chief supporter of
these views, and his return to office will,
