THE BLUE-BOTILE Fly.

Buzzing and gay in the early dawn,
Fresh from II nap on the parior wall,
Out for a Hight over garden and lawn.
Fearing no tumble and dreading no fail
A lively. frolicsome, biue-bottle ty:
And his feet
We're as neat.
And his style
As complete
As his brain
Was replcte
With the mischief that laughed in his eye!
"what glorious fun I'll have to-day,
When the baby's asleep and the nurse away;
When Rover lies by the kitchen door:
I'll waken them both aud make them roar.
Oh what larks.
Cried the roiicking, reckless blue-bottle ny;
what n cry.
Said :he fly.
After me,
When I've done
With my fun"
And he wickedy winked his wee eye.
..Tben III go and dance on grandpa's head,
While he struggles TO brush me away;
And tickle his ear till he'll wish was dead!
And over the table at dinner III play
Back and forth,
And feast on crumbs from newly led pie.
And I'll sip
From the lip
OF each glass
That may pass
All sweet things
Dinner brings.
Quoth this riotous blue-bottle fly.
But, alas for the plans he had laid.
And alas Tor the day just begun!
For this fly soon lit in the grateful shade
To escape the hot rays of the SUM-
And II dream
OF the sights that should soon greet his eye'
When unseen,
From the green
Of "a limb
Above him.
On his head,
BY thread.
Fell spider,
Who coolly devoured that blue bottle hy!

WHAT TO DO BEFORE THE DOCTOR
COMES.
SEVERE PAINS IN THE CHEST OR Aldo
MEN.

SEVERE PAINS IN THE CHEST OR Aldo
MEN.
There are a few simple remedies
which, with proper precaution. can do
no harm and may prove OF great serv-
ice i'll cases of sudden and severe pain
in the chest; alike whether the pain be
due simply to neuralgia, or rheumatism
in the chest wall; or whether it be due
to some form of active Inflammation, or
disease within the chest, such as
pleurisy, pneumonia and the like.
Foremost among these remedies is
the mustard plaster, which is now kept
by most apothecaries ready prepared
a dozen leaves of a size convenient for
the relief of localized pain coming in a
tin box, and not costing more than fifty
cents. II would be well if every family
such box ready for need, as they re-
quire only to be moistened with tepid
water before being applied.
MUSTARD PASTE.
shall now tell you how to prepare a
mustard paste, though it is one of those
things which everybody is supposed to
know; and do this because very faulty
directions are given in many popular
books on domestic remedies, written
by those who should know better.
Mix equal parts of ground mustard
and fine flour with sufficient warm wa
ter to make an even paste; then spread
it thinly on bit of old linen, cover the
face with another bit of old linen, or.
better still, old muslin, and apply. Do
not use any vinegar, boiling water, or
alcohol. ali of which destroy the efficacy
of the mustard.
A good mustard paste can rarely be
tolerated more than twenty minutes,
and with person having delicate skin
particular care should be taken that it
be not left long enough to blister; q
blister caused by mustard being painful
and difficult 10 heal. After the paste is
removed, the surface should be very
gently washed with warm water to re-
move the mustard which remains on the
skin, and thin layer of cotton wool
can then be applied. This will, per-
haps. increase the smarting for few
moments, but will soon subdue it Alto
gether. A mustard paste should never
be applied to young child, unless I'M
der express direction from physician,
the skin of children being so very deli
cate that severe blistering might readi-
ly be caused. II the pain is distributed
over larger area than is covered by
by the paste. the latter can be shifted
about.

MINING NOTES,

! Veith's hydraulic mine, Calaveras county
| is highly remunerative.
There is a prospect of the San Benitc
county quicksilver mine being opened
shortly.
The One Thousand and One Gravel Com.
pany, above Sierra City, are steadily driv.
ing their main tunnel, and are now in bet.
ter-looking gravel than they have ever seen
before.
The Calpella Flume Company has already
| spent 81, 000 in Mendocino county. One
half, or $4,000 shares, have been retained
by the Eastern promoters of the enterprise.
The rest are for sale.
The North Fork claim at Forest City,
Sierra county, leased by Thomas Marriott
and others, is yielding handsome dividends.
A tract of new ground has been opened,
and large force is being worked.
The Vigilance drift tunnel, Placer coun.
ty, is being run IN further to the rich drift
ground discovered last spring, and now
hardly accessible. About fifty men are EN-.
ployed at present in the different parts of
the mine.
Fifteen men are steadily employed at the
Keystone, Downieville, mine. a large
amount of rock has been taken out which
viii average at least SIS per ton. 1t is
expected that cleanup CT at least SIS, 000
viii be made in the spring.
John Rhodes and J T. TreadwelI have
made arrangements with Augustus Tache,
and will put up mill on his quartz ledge
This ledge is situated short distance
above Oregon City, Butte county, and as
yet is only partially developed.
The B. NJ Extension Mining Company
have struck fine gravel in their tunnel at
Forest City, Sierra county So far as de-
veloped the gravel is of deep blue color,
carrying white quartz powders well water
worn. Everything indicates heavy wash.
The tunnel is now in about 8, 200 feet.
In the Norwich mine of Calaveras county
the main shaft has been sunk oh feet in
rock requiring constant blasting, and the
richness of which is constantly improving
as sinking continues. An Is inch vein of
decomposed rock was found carrying free
gold and sulphurets, which is estimated to
be from $50 to $40 rock.
The English Company commenced wash
ing in their diggings on Badger Hill, near
North San Juan recently. For the past
two or three weeks workmen have been
engaged in putting things in order, and
now work can be pushed forward without
any interruption for some time to come,
providing the water supply holds out.
HartwelPs new map of Nevada county
shows $40 claims, which represent the
greater portion of the valuable mineral
properties already discovered OF this
number ll3 are gold quartz and 229 are
gravel. There are also several valuable
copper and iron mines in the county The
total assessed values of mining properties
are as follows Mining claims and i'm

Too Much CIGARETTE There is too
muoh cigarette. The small boy has got it
into his mouth, and it is using him up.
The Philadelphia Times says physicians
and other people in that city are panied by
the spectacle, growing more common every
day, of pale faced lads, ranging in age from
6 to 20 years, who are putting their little
lives away in smoking. Day and night
they throng the streets, where the pecu-
liariy offensive odor generated by cigar
cites made of cheap psper and bad tobacco
renders their smoking as obnoxious to
Others as it is hurtful to themselves. Every
evening before the doors of the theatres
they raise a cloud of foul smoke that is
equally injurious to their own rickety con-
stitutians and TO the noses of their victims.
Doubtless, also, they carry their pernicious
habits into their homes-when they are old
enough to do so without risk of the spank
ing that they deserve-thus still further
doing harm to themselves and making
other people uncomfortable.
