For Old Toners.

The local on the Reno Gazette, who
has ssbeen there" and i authority OH
the subject, gives the following as a
sovereign remedy for alcoholism:
When you get up groggy in the morn
ing and have to tie your head up in a
towel, because your hat won't fit it,
and your eyes look like the red lights
at the end Of a freight train, don't go
to the house of the wicked publican
and ask for "a hair of the dog that bit
you,' but go to the butcher shop, get
a juicy slice from a fresh raw roun
sprinkle it with salt and pepper and
down it. The gastric juice Of your
poor old stomach that would refuse
the daintiest quail that ever s~izzledon
toast will take to that beef with the
avidity of a starving tramp. 1t gives
you nutriment, kills the liquor, and
inside OF an hour will make you feel
as fresh as a lily and as solid as a
stone house with a mansard roof.o

woman came in this morning and
handed me an old, back number por-
ous plaster, one that looked as though
it had been taken off an Egyptian

had worn it on his back for two weeks
and 1t never drew a blister. 1t just
loafed around his back, and was OF
no more account than so much sand

Gus plaster was not intended to blister,

For many years Mount Everest, in
Nepaul, has been considered the high
est mountain in the world, reaching
the respectable height OF 29,002 feet.
Dhawalgire and K~uchinjinga, in the
same range, with about $4,000 feet
each, shared the honors between them
until Major Everest of the Bengal
Engineers discovered their bigger
brother. Before they were measured
Humboldt thought some points in
the South American Andes reached
the highest altitude on the globe.
But quito recently Capt. j. A. Law
son has discovered in tho little
known island of New Guinea, a peak
that is still higher, which he has ap-
propriately called Mount Hercules,
and fixes its elevation at 80, 1856 feet
above the level of the sea.
