The Big Bend country is the OBJ
jcctive point for many immigrants
seeking homes, and the numbers 60
ing out daily from Cheney and SpO-
kane Falls, if kept up for a month,
will populate the better portions of
that whole country, before winter
sets in. We have been informed
that there is very large scope of
good country directly east Of the
junction of the Wenatchie and Col
umbia rivers. The altitude is sup
posed to be between 1000 and 800
feet above sea level One thing in
favor of the settlement of that cOun-
try is, that it will produce without
irrigation, and another is, that water
can be obtained at Il reasonable depth
by digging. The crop Of natural
grasses cannot be surpassed any
where in the Territory, particularly
the bunch grass. The immigration
is crowding there in great numbers,
and our informant states, that good
vacant land will be scarce by the
close Of November.-UuHd Wdld

There are some very smart youths
in the country nowadays. a smart
boy is a good thing to have in the
family, If he does not get too smart
for any earthly use; but when he
becomes 80 full Of his own impor-
tance that he looks upon his father
and mother as old fogies, and thinks
himself insulted If they offer to re-
strain him, the best thing they can
do is to take him to the coal shed
and administer dose Of buggy whip
that will cause him to revere the
memory Of his greatest grandmother
for seventeen days and sixteen
nights, and as soon as he begins to
show sigus Of forgetfulness, the dose
should be repeated.
Whenever a boy begins to stay
out nights and neglect his business
and forgets his duty to obey his
parents, it is time to draw a line,
and the best place to draw it is across
his shoulders or just below the finis
of his bObtailed coat. OF course the
boy will interpOse numerous Ohjec-
tiOns to this mode of treatment; but
the more he objects, the closer should
the rein be drawn. If his parents
don't teach him the true distinction
between dudeism and gentility,
somebody else will. Same old man,
who remembers how Abraham Lin
coin danced to the music of an ap-
pie tree sprout, will conclude that
the smart boy is cut out for a Presi-
dent, and will want to give him
some primary lessons in the chief
executive business, and that boy will
come home with the nose bleed and
slice of beefsteak on his eye, and
wish he had not been born unit! all
of the men that remember the Incl
dents Of Lincoln's early life We're
dead. The smart boy is all right so
long as he knows who is running the
ranch and has the authority to order
a COurt-martial; but until that idea is
firmly fastened in the bump on his
Uranium, known as "memOry," he
is like some people we know of-.he

SAVE THE OLD PAPER.-Never
throw away old paper. If you have
no wish TO sell it, use it in the house.
Some hOusekeepers prefer it to cloth
for cleaning many articles of furni-
ture. For instance, volume writ
ten by lady says: "After a stove
has been blackened, it can be kept
looking very well for a long time by
rubbing it with paper every morn
ing. Rubbing with paper is a much
nicer way Of keeping a teakettle,
cofeepOt and teapot bright and clean
than the old way Of washing them
in suds. Rubbing with paper is also
the best way of polishing; knives,
tinware and spoons; they shine like
new silver. For polishing mirrors,
windows, lamp chimneys, etc, paper
is better than dry cloth. Preserves
and pickles keep much better If
brown paper, instead of cloth, is tied
over the jar. Canned fruit Is not so
apt to mould if a piece Of writing pa
per, cut to fit the can, is laid directly
on the fruit, Paper is much better
to put under a carpet than straw. 1t
Is warmer, thinner, and makes less
noise when one walks over it,"

OUR BODIES AFTER DEATH.-With-
in very near approach to truth,
the human family inhabiting the
earth has been estimated at 1,OO0,-
100000; the annual loss by death is
100000. Now the weight of the
animal matter of this immense body
cast into the grave is no less than
3d., 900 tons, and its decomposition
produces 1900, ,OOO,OOO,OOO cubic feet
Of matter. The vegetable produc-
tiOns of the earth clear away from
the earth the gasses thus generated,
decOmpOsing and assimilating them
for their own increase. This circle
of changes has been going on ever
since man became an occupant Of the
earth. He feeds on the lower ami
mails and the seeds Of plants, which
in due time become a part of him
self The lower animals feed upon
the herbs and grasses, which, in
their turn, become the animal; then,
by its death, again pass into the at
mOsphere, and are ready to once
more be assimilatated by plants, the
earth or bone substance alone re-
naming where it is deposited.

Great as have been the efforts and large
the expenditures for construction, the
equipment of the Northern Pacific and its
tributary lines has not only been kept
equal to all demands of its traffic, but as
a completed road it enters the larger field
of competing transcontinental line, tae
best equipped railway in the United States.
It's passenger trains have all the improve
ments of the age, and supply passengers
with every essential of comfort in travel
ing. Its extensive freight equipment has
been kept equal to the extraordinary and
sometimes irregular demands resulting
from the rapid settlement of the country
and the production of immense crops for
which storage facilities along the
line cannot be adequately
provided. Withal, the service
of the company has been admirably or
ganized and has been steadily increased
and distributed as the road advanced to
completion. In this latter respect, espe-
cially, do we consider the management of
the Northern Pacific railway to be worthy
of admiration. Its announced policy is to
keep Its faithful employees and officials and
to reward good service with promotions.
That is in part at least why its service is
as excellent as it is.
