How to Coupie.

A cross New Mexican reporter who
has evidently not been treated kind.
ly, thus tries to spoil sport for the
other fellows:
1.-THE vulgar style of promensding
with the gentleman hanging on tho
lady's arm, one of the fashionable
foibles OF the day, was largely in
dulged in at the circus the other eve
ming. This is q most contemplate
custom, at least to observers, and
should be frowned down by society
MS An evil. It may be said that pos.
session in law Is considered as nine
points. Why not so in other things?
There are those who cannot see any
difference which has hold of the
others arm. However, q woman's
safeguard is to keep mans hands
off of her and 1t is more proper in
the eyes of all for her to take his
arm instead of him taking hers.
Just tell him in SO many words
hands off," He may not like it Al
the time, but be will think ten fold
more of you afterwards. Men will
be and do just what the ladies allow
them to do--indeed they Will not dc
TO trust. Give q man your arm and
you will nnd him confidential and
he will take q great many privileges
be would not take if he was not per.
mitted to do so. He will give your
arm many affectionate squeezes and
sly swists that he could have no op.
portunity OF, and the opportunity ID
Just what he is after"

The Dreadful Comet.

The Worlds London cable says:
The comet is all the talk IN scientific
circles at present, and it is being re
garded with considerable apprehen
sion. Richard A. Proctor, who de
MED that it was the comet Of l848
and 1880, now finds that he made q
mistake In his calculations and SO
withdraws his statement. More eau
tious astronomers than he have no
doubt of the identity Of the comet,
and believe that it will return in DC
tober 1888, at the latest, and then fall
into the sun, which will enable you
to dispense with the future publics
ton of the World. I am assured
that this 10 the opinion of the most
eminent scientists of the day, G.
Psrazi Smith, the clever Astronomer
Royal for Scotland, in particular hav.
ing made no secret of his belief.

Occupations Gone.

The Carson river 10 rising, and nu-
merous searchers for gravel deposits
and tallings have been obliged to
abandon their pursuits. In many
places along the banks the small
hand wheels used for drawing pits
can be seen; the crank and portions
of the belt still above water, while
an occasional broken shovel or aban-
doued screen also show where the
search for suriferous and argentifer
ous fioatsam and jetsan was prose-
cuted during the low stage Of water.
The steady flow OF the river has made
work in these supplementary diggings
im possible until another season like
the one just past brings the bed of
the river to the surface. In the mean
time freshets will come and go, the
river will flow on forever, and tools,
wheels, screens, pans and old gum
boots will be pushed on to sink, In
course of time to become fossil re-
mains in a sedimentary formation
for the benefit of biologists of some
meta historic age who will sagely
speculate upon the manner snd Gus
toms of a lost race, while their un
learned neighbors will speculate up
on the circulating medium of the
vsrdant relic hunters, '-'

Following is the report for the

conRnsd TO some drain boxes placed
on the level OF the track and conduct
ed over the c. Il C. drift on water
tight flooring, and connected with a
sub dr. ain, which was cut out to this
point to provide for such an emer-

A Timely Prescription.

Those who sometimes .starry long
at the wine" will read with interest
prescription for the prevention of
shot coppers." The thing needed is
not q remedy but a preventative.
Do not wait till morning comes with
its train Of disagreeable SYMPTOMS, and
then resort to soda water, but act as
follows before going TO bed: Put
teaspoonful of carbonate of soda
into a little less than wine glass Of
water with three or four sdrops of
essence of ginger, to which may be
added small sprinkling Of cayenne
pepper; stir it up we'll till the csrbo-
nate of soda be dissolved, and drink
1t of. Be assured that this potion
will remove all the scidity of the
stomach, so that you will wake in the
morning without any signs OF parch-
ed throat, fevered tongue or heart
burn. During these piping election
times many patriot will fall victim
to the liberality of candidates, and
the above prescription will come in
handy, if the patient is only sober
enough TO administer 1t himself or to
get somebody else to do it. 1t would
be good idea for saloon keepers to
provide themselves with this stomach
sweetener for a night cap.-Iiiaes-

Weather Proverbs .


The government is collecting pop
ular weather proverbs and prognos-
tics, and has requested the news
papers over the coast to furnish free Of
charge postage paid any that may be
lying around and for which there is
no i'm N ediate use. The weather saws
and predictions of all classes, whites,
negroes, Chinese and Indians not
taxed are Moulded in the request.
Old Haynes, who knows more about
the weather than all the vennors who
ever lived in Canada, ia the reposi-
tory of a number of maxims which
are very useful in determining the
shell OF the weather, past, present
and future. Both animate and IMAM
innate nature assist him in making
up the meteorological bulletin which
he keeps hanging against the stove
pipe in the carpenter shop. The
crow, spider and hog, the moon, Mt.
Davidson and the weather itself fur
nish data from which to compute
weather problems. When crow IL
seen going south early in the season
it means that it is in q hurry to get
south as the air to the northward Is
uncomfortably cold. This presages
a cold, hard winter, unless unexpect-
ed thaws intervene 10 soften the rig
or of the climate. A spider will be
seen strengthening his web immedi
ately before storm. If during the
continuance of q rain fall he Is OBJ.
served making repairs in issky spots
1t is almost . certainty that the rain
will soon cease. During the sojourns
of MIR. Haynes with King Whine.
mucca he learned from that monarch
the secret OF his success in forecast
ing the weather. The King had .
pct pig which he had borrowed from
an early emmigrant train. This an
imal, naturally sagacious, became
through following the nomadic lite
of its master, exceedingly acute in
the Interpretation of weather signs.
and would carry straws In his mouth
to indicate the approach Of storm.
Mr.. Haynes now keeps q learned pig
in his garden which he consults dali
ly. Winnemucca's people placed
great reliance on their proverb;
UChaw hatchA kashosh lachpa mutol-
la" which means, if there Is much
iuzz on the watermellon look out for
snow. There are q number of other
reliable maxims or weather folk lore
which are recommended to the At.
tention of the government. Jim
Higgins, the shoemaker, foresees q
spell sf bad weather when q large
number of gentlemen's, ladies' and
children's boots, shoes and gators
are brought in for repairs. When
the old boot heels soften so his cat
will eat them, hard frost is almost
sure to follow, sooner or later. He
also prepares for rain by lacking old
bootlegs over holes in the roof when
his fiddle strings break. This OK.
