CampInr out.


A few practical suggestions in refer
ence TO camping out may not come
amiss Buy horse, IL you can. and
borrow . wagon, or pay tf'ifio for its
use. Now, having your horse and
wagon, pack earefally. Many take only
a coilee-pot aud frying pan for the
cooking Department. Your c0flee.pot
had better have both bail and handle
and lip. not lid, as handles and
spouts are apt TO burn OFF Each cook
ing utonsil should have its own Jug, so
as not .6 backeif other things. The
rest of the cooking utensils are water
pail, hatchet, large knife, aud knife.
fork, spoon, plate and cup for each
person. The wooden picnic plates,
which you can wash a few times ana
then kindle the fire with, are much bet
ter than china ones. Inquire before
hand if you can buy meat and vegeta-
blcs along the route, andthen-- provide
accordingly. A light rubber blanket is
needed for each camper; those with a
hole in the middle for the head are the
best as they do for both day and night.
If you have room, carry an empty tick,
which YOU can lill with straw and hem
lock A comfortable bed is then at
your service The ladies, of course,
should have separate tent BE sure
TO provide yourself with books for rainy
weather, a number of glees il you are
musical, and somo few simple remedies.
Each member of the party should be
provided with his or her own havcr-
sack, with brushes, SCISSORS, thread and
needles, etc. Plenty of rope twine and
copper wire should not be forgotten,
With a hatchet hammer, nails, etc
Thus accoutered, you are ready for the
campaign. -

Treating.

Of all American customs, that of
'treating TO drinks is about the most
ridiculous. Ten men meet in bar
room. OF these three may be old nc.
quaintanees and the other seven stran
gers to the three and each other. The
first Americanism is the introduction "
of everybody to everybody else Thus,
Mr. A let me introduce you TO Mr.. B,

A, Mr. A This is Mr.. ID, and SO on all

which Mr.. A is utterly lost as to the
identity Of Mr. Q. rs is Mr. 9 TO that OF
Mr. A, and MS Mr.. b to that OF Mr.. ID,
and as also is Mr. to Mr.. A. Being
now much mixed and strangers rs be-
fore, the next ceremony is opened by,
well. gentlemen, whatwill you haveP'
Should there be ten drinks to he pre-
pared, embracing "miXed and "lOng
drinks, it involves the patient waiting
of the one treator and nine treated for u
period of five and sometimes ten min-
utes, which in many cases are passed in
stupidity watching the activity of the
barkeeper, who is really the most inter
ested aud proiited person present At
last, when all is prepared. ten drinks
are raised aud silently slip down ten
throats. Then some one else feels it
his duty to treat" Meantime; one
third Of the previous treated may slip
away on one pretext or another, for
fear of being called upon by bar-room
sort of conscientiousness to keep their
end up,n And so this foolish, dreary
custom goes on, while the bar keeper
has most of the pleasure and all OF the
profit. In u. Graphic.
