Drunken Russian Peasants.

MouikS are curious when drunk.
They hardly ever quarrel, but become
atfectionate and embrace each other
Their idea of drinking is to imbibe
until they are quite insensible.
When | was in Russia | had coach
man, who once month used to come
and ask me for leave to get drunk dur
ing two consecutive days. Upon in
quiry found that only on these con-
ditionS would coachman remain So
Der during the rest of the month.
Having obtained leave, he would go to
drinking-house, show the proprietor
his money and state how longhe might
remain there. Then he would sit down
at table with some spirits before
him. Gradually and solemnly he would
get drunk, place his arms before him
on the table and recline on them.
Thus he would remain for two days
and nights, the proprietor supplying
him with more liquor whenever he
looked up. His time up, the proprie-
tor would drag him outside the house
and set him up in the snow against the
wall, having first filled his cap with
snow. Every charitably disposed
brother coachman passing by would
box his ears. In about half an hour
this discipline would sober him; he
would get up, shake himself together
and resume his duties.-London Truth
Poisonous Stockings.
In a communication to the London
Lancet, DR.. Woodland states that,
having had his attention directed to
a number of cases involving great irri-
tation to the feet and legs, causing
small pustules to arise and the skin to
subsequently eXfoliate, and suspicion
being fastened upon red stockings
which the patients wore, he carefully
analyzed number of the hose, to as
certain the precise nature of the diff
Guilty. He found tin salt which is
used as a mordant in fixing the dye.
He succeeded in obtaining as much as
twenty-five and three-tenthS grains of
this metal in the form of the dioXide;
and, as each time the articles are
washed the salt in question is of course
rendered more easily soluble, the result
is that the acid excretions from the
feet attack the tin oxide, and an irri-
tating luid is formed.

CHICAGO, December president Ca
bic, of the Rock Island, left for New
York Saturday, accompanied by III. III.
Porter. The fact that the latter accom-
panied Mr.. Cable indicates that the di-
rectors of Rock Island intend to take
action in regard to the proposed line
from Albert Lea to Bismarck. This
bold strike for northwestern territory, it
is believed, will force the Milwaukee &
st. Paul and the Northwestern to extend
their lines to Bismarck, n~otwithstand-
ing their agreement not to entrench up
on the territory of the Northern Pacific.
