People like to sing about reading
their titles clear to mansions in the
skies, but they have no urgent desire
to occupy those mansions and move
out of an earthly home with heavy
mortgage on it. In nine cases out of
ten they would prefer to have clear
title 10 a corner house on the avenue.
and in the tenth case the man would
rather live in hired apartment here
below than make any such radical
change in housekeeping as is indicated
by the song which he sings so rap
tur0uslv.

HUMBUG.

As the word humbug is defined by
the dictionary, it unquestionably has
an ugly meaning. Humbug is said
be deception, or trickery. or impcsi-
ton; doubtless it is all this, but it is
also something more. Humbug con-
sists largely in the workings of the
imagination. The human counte-
nance was never more absurdly dis
figured than by the "bangs," with
which many women dress their hair.
The forehead, in which the marks of
intellectually are portrayed. is cover
ed with hair, plastered down smooth,
and making a woman look like a sick
monkey. They imagine, however,
they are making themselves look
beautiful. But this is Imagination
and humbug.
Humbus, pure and simple, is a
very harmless, and, We believe, a
very useful thing. That shrewd phil
osopher and successful business man,
P. T. Barnum, once said: eff you
were to take humbug out of he world,
there would be no profit in it, Un-
doubtedly Mr.. Barnum is right.
More pleasure is derived from gen.
uine humbug than from anything else.
The dudes grotesque raiment is all
humbug, but he enjoys it immensely.
The "honor" of having ones name
prominently and frequently mentioned
in the public prints is all humbug,
yet many persons regard if as big
thing. Honors, real or imaginary,
49,. olways pheasant, vet half the hon
ors of the world are empty ones-in
fact: nothing but humhug.
1t is humbug that makes one think
an overcoat is better because it came
from Smiths, for Smith, you know,
is the leading clothier but, really.
one may buy coat for less money in
a less fashionable store. But it is
not necessary to enumerate furtt er.
Let bumbug alone At best, or at
worst, is ave-. transparent affair,
and can be easily seen through by any
one who cares to take the trouble to
do SO. So many persons find pleasure
in humbug that it would be a pity to
do away with it. And the beauty of
itall is that people who are hum
plugged seldom discover that they have
been duped, and 60 through life firm
ly believing that to be best and great
est, which is. after all, nothing but
humbug. "What tools We ,mortals

A New Yorker who has been OBJ

concludes that one may find as much
meanness, drunkenness: and trickery
among them as in what is sometimes
called "the lower classes" The latter
remain in town and take their "red
eye" wherever they can get il, while
the former guzzle their champagne at
the watering-places. But drink is the
great leveler, and they generally reach
the same end.

Beautiful Indian Women.

Many half breed Cherokee women
in the Indian territory, writes cor
respondent, are cultivated in mind,
beautiful in person, industrious in
habit, and will compare well with the
more favored woman in the North and
East. They have magnificent heads of
hair, long and black, all their own, and
with jet-black eyes and pearly teeth,
dressed in that fashionable attire in
which they all love to appear, they
would not be recognized in Eastern
drawing-rooms as that part of the orig
inal inhabitants of our country known
as squaws,a name long since repudiated.
Let it be known, then, that white men
of worth and character are popular
among the beauties of the territory,
and four out of five who come to make
a home among them marry these dusky
maidens, get citizenship, surround
themselves with ample acres and the
comforts of life, participate in the
affairs of government and become the
most active and wealthy citizens of the
territory. A chief trait in the char
acter of many white men both in this
country and out of it is to get posses
sion of its productive lands. BY COM
hitting matrimony, they can kill two
birds with one stone~-get wife and
farm too.

Chills, their Causes and COpsc Quences.

Catarrhs should receive careful con-
sideration, instead of the neglect which
they generally meet with until they
have fastened on the part affected so
much as to excite the attention, and
perhaps alarm, of the sufferer. Here.
however, we propose to say Il few
words about the causes of chills. A
person in good health, with fair play,
easily rcsists cold. But when the
health flags a little, and liberties are
taken with the stomach or the nervous
system, chill is easily taken, and ac-
cording to the weak spot of the indi-
vidual, assumes the form of cold, or
pneumonia, or, it may be, jaundice.
OF all causes of "cold," probably IA
tigue is one of the most efficient A
jaded man coming home at night from
long days work. Il growing youth
losing two hours sleep over evening
parties two or three times a week, or Il
young lady heavily "doing the season"
young children at this festive season
overfed and with short allowance of
sleep, are common instances of the vic
tins of "cold." Luxury is favorable
to chill-taking; very hot rooms, soft
chairs, feather beds creates q sensitive
ness that leads to catarrhs. 1t is not,
after all, the "cold," that is 50 much to
be feared as the antccedent conditions
that give the attack chance of doing
harm. Some of the worst colds
happen to those who donot leave their
house or even their bed, and those who
are most invulnerable are often those
who are most exposed changes of tenn
perature, and who by good sleep, cold
bathing,and regular habits preserve the
tone of their nervous system and cir
culation. Probably many chills are
contracted at night or at the flag end
of the day, when tired people get the
equilibrium of their circulation dis
turbcd by either overheated sitting
rooms or underheated bedrooms and
beds. This is especially the case with
elderly people. In such cases the mis-
chief is not always done instantaneous
ly, or in single night. 1t often takes
place insidiously, extending over days
or even weeks, 1t thus appears that
taking cold" is not by any means a
simple result of a lower temperature,
but depends largely on personal condi-
tions and habits, affecting especially
the nervous and muscular energy of
the body.--Lancet. . ,..
