Something About the Care OF Boots
and shoes.
l. Very few people give Boots or Shoes
proper care in Keeping them well ciled,
| etc Oil is the essential life oI leather.
and no leather. be it ever so good, will
wear any length of time unless properly
oiled and cared for.
9. 1t very frequently happens that
Boots and Shoes are put to arougher use
than that for which they were intended.
| For instance. man will put 90 light
| Kip or Calf Boot in farm work, or other
hard wear, thinking that because it cost
him more than stoga, that it ought to
| give him as much or more wear. while
the fact is that The Boot is too light for
the use he is making Of il, and cannot
he expected to stand.
.. Many Boots and Shoes are burned
when wet. 1t is well established fact
| that leather burns much more easily
when wet than when dry. Il does not
burn when wet from actual heat, but
from steam generated in the pores 0f the
leather by the action of tho heat upon
the water in the leather, which Scalds it..
A burn of this kind seldom shows at
first. but as the leather dries, it immedi-
ately crec.S odt where burned, and the
wearer is puzzled to krow What is the
matter. and hlamcs the maker, whcr: he
| himself is alone at laGlt.
i. Many people are troubled with
Sweaty :eet The sweat from the foot
vii! crack any leather no matter how
good. Such persons should never wear
WOODEN stockings.

WRITING Love LETTEEs.-Ihere
is no stated rule for writing loVe-let'
ters. You should write on foolscap
paper, and bear on it as soft as you
can, using words ofauch burning love
that they will sizzla on the point OF
the pen. 1t is also advisable to sling
in a bunch Of pathos occasionally
such as, dearest Augusta, I love
you with above larger than an ele-
ohant. l think of you every day !;

The Salt Well.

Robert Coner succeeded in getting the
most of the $3.50 to he raised among our
citizens to secure the continuance Of the
work at the salt we'll, and felt confident
the remaining sum could be easily raised
and was authorized by Mr.. Macarthur to
go on with the work. Monday addition
al tubing was ordered, to enable them to
prosecute the work, when new difficulty
arose. Mr.. Coryell, the contractor, re-
fused to go on with the work to the
depth required, and ordered his men to
draw the tubing and get out what poles
they could. The drawing of the tubing
would have, in all probability, been dis
astrous, and the directors served an in
junction on them, through the
Sheriff, fOrbidding them drawing the
tubing. Thus the matter stands. The
probabilities are that some arrangement
will be made to continue the work.
Mr.. Macarthur is absent, and no
definite arrangements will be made un-
till he returns. We are confident some
action will be taken to insure the fur
ther prosecution of the work, and the
hole put down, IL possible.

SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 10. 1883.
SNOW and Ice.

Detroit was visited Friday and Satur-
day of last week with one of the worst
storms occurring for series of years.
Friday it showed all day; ten or twelve
inches of snow falling. Saturday 1t had
turned to rain, freezing as At fell, and by
Saturday night everything was loaded
with ice. Telegraph and telephone wires
looked like small cables. The trees were
loaded down, in some instances
branches breaking under the weight
The sidewalks and sides of the streets
were a glare of ice, the crust on the
snow being solid enough to bear up
horses. Sunday, in the bright sunlight,
the trees and wires sparkled and glisten-
ed like diamonds, and Grand Circus
Park by gaslight excelled any spectacu-
lar scene ever produced on the stage.
The trains we sadly interfered with, and
in many instances abandoned.
In Ohio disastrous freshets resulted
from the storm and immense damage
was done. Throughout the west it was
pronounced the worst storm of recent
years; ice covering everything, and fine
orchards almost completely destroyed by
the weight of the ice breaking off the
limbs of the trees. In some portions the
the running of trains was not attempted
and it was not until the middle of this
week that trains succeeded In regaining
any degree of regularity.
In central Illinois the storm was ac-
companied by thunder and lightning,
the wind blowing a gale, and the ther-
mOmeter being far below the zero mark.
The heavy snow compelled the abandon
ment of railroad travel, and in Milwau-
kee IN the afternoon business was vir-
tually suspended. Two Union Pacific
trains were snow-bound at sherman and
Green River, in Utah. In the cattle
ranges the snow was foot deep on the
l"vci, 2 II uDIrss thaw or heavy wind

Timber Lands.
Special telegram to the Ocean

Special telegram to the Inter-Ocean.
Among the bills introduced in the
House was one by Mr.. Valentine, of Ne
braska, to regulate !the sale of timber
lands in the United States. 1t directs
the Secretary of the Interior to withdraw
from market the fine timber lands re-
naming undispOsed of, which are chief
ly valuable for fine timber Of merchant
able value. It further directs him to
employ sufficient number of examiners
skilled in woOdcraft to make an exami-
nation of the pine lands already survey
ed, and report a full description of them,
giving the quality of the soil, the springs
and streams Of water, the quality and
quantity of pine and other timber grow
ing thereon, the distance from navigable
streams and railroads, and such other
matters tending to fix the value Of the
land. It provides that copy of this re-
port shall be fled at the local land Office.
and copy with the Secretary Of the In
terror. 1t makes it crime for any ex
aminer to file false report, punishable
by fine and Imprisonment. After the
making and fling of the reports the
Secretary of the Interior is authorized to
offer the lands for sale in the manner
now prescribed by law, but the notice of
sale shall contain description by legal
subdivisions, and the quality and mer-
chantable value of the lands. The re-
reports of the examiners are to be at all
times open to inspection. Any land Of
fered for sale and remaining unsOld shall
thereafter be subject to sale at private
entry at their appraised value.

Serious Accident.

Yesterday morning brakeman, named
A. L. Kitridge, employed on the Michi-
gan Central met with quite serious ac-
cident at the depot while coupling cars.
He was about to couple way car next
to the tender when the engine, in back
ing up, caught him between the tender
and car, striking him just above the hips
giving him a serious jam. DR.. Perrin,
surgeon of the Cheboygan division was
called and made an examination of the
injuries, finding them quite severe, the
man being injured internally; no bones
being broken. The Doctor had him re-
moved to the Farmer House, where he is
being cared for. 1t was very close call
and he Is not entirely out Of danger yet
although his chances for recovery are
considered good. This is the first case
DIR. Perrin has been called upon to treat
since he received his appointment as
surgeon of this division. According to
his instructions, he telegraphed the full
particulars to DR.. Farrand, SurgeOn-in-
Chief, Detroit.

An Explanation from the Treasury De-
Partment of the Alleged Discrepancy in
Ben Buffers Accounts.
WASHINGTON, March 27.-The following
statement of the alleged discrepancy in the
accounts of the National Soldiers Home Is
furnished by the Treasury Department:
THE circumstances OF the case seem to be
as follows: The Home is a corporation and
settles it's own accounts through its Own
executive officers, with It's Treasurer, who is
custodian of its funds. The Home is, how
ever. required 10 render a statement to the
Government OF all It's receipts and expeadi-
lures and this statement of account is ex-
amined and settled by the proper account
ing officer. In the settlement OF the &C
count made some time since, the Home was
credited with two different items amounting
to $4,000 as having been paid over to and
di bursed by the Eastern Branch OF the
Home, but the Treasurer of the Eastern
Branch subsequently showed that he
had returned the $1,000, and IN the
recent settlement o. the accounts between
he United States and the Home, the Second
Auditor and Second Comptroller charged
the Home with the amount thus returned
u IL by the Treasurer of the Eastern Branch.
1t is supposed that IN the settlement made
made between the officers OF the Home and
General Butler, at the expiration OF his
term as Treasurer. this $4,000 was not
charged back as having been returned by the
Treasurer of the Eastern Branch. General
Butler turned over to his successor the BAL
arcs on hand. as shown by that settlement,
but If The above superstition shall prove TO
be correct, il will be necessary for them to
turn over $4,000 in addition to what was
then understood 20 DE the balance. Whether
the correct balance was transferred by him
TO his successors or not can be ascertaiDed

Home. General Batter has expressed his
