origin Of s~alutations.


hAhHhAN 20 AHNat|HA
Solicitations is some countries have
very dissimilar characteristics, and il
may not be uninteresting to explain a
few of them. Most of our W gestures
of s"alutation and civility owe their
origin to tho warfare of the days Of
chivalry, indicating Difference, as from
one conquered to the conqueror. The
head movement was simply the hand
unarmed; the helmen being removed,
the party was at his mercy. The hand
ungloYed was in like manner the hand
ungauntleted. Shaking hands was 4
token of truce, in which the parties
took hold of each other weapon hand
to make sure against treachery. We
consider it an incivility to shake hands
with gloves on. and it is contrary to the
etiquette of the European courts to
wear gloves in the presence of the
queens.
A g%entleman's bow is but the offer of
tho neck to the stroke of his adversary;
and the lady's courtesy is but the form
theory of firing n salute is that
it leaves the gun harmless and at the
mercy Of the other party; and this is so
true that firing salutes with blank
cartridges is n modern innovation-oc-
casioned, however, by the fact OF a COM
plimentary ann bal, proving fatal
once to the parsonage whom it was
meant to honor. When an officer
s%alutes, he points his drawn sword to
the ground; and tho salute of troops is
designated presenting arms"-that is,
presenting them to DO taken.

TunneilInr for Water.

At rooms in the ldelman block, with
Architect Anderson, is Frank Bartlett, an
engineer in the employ of the Wyoming
Development company. During the past
season he has been engaged in opening
fiity-six large canals and 300 small ones
for purposes of irrigating the company's
land. The water supply is obtained from
the Laramie river, to tap which a tunnel
seven by eight 1eet is being drilled
through the mountains 5000 feet, the
mouth of which will be two feet or more
below the surface of the river, which will
be damned below. Winter stopped the
work, after 600 feet had been excavated,
but the task will be resumed in the spring.

How many times a day 10 you sup.
pose an active, bustling broker takes
and gives a simple word Of honor upon
which hinges a transaction involving
thousands of dollars The whole bust
ness seems to be run on honor. There are
firms who keep the margins of their GUS
tomers up to the letter, but even they
at times trust sufficiently to the honor
OF their clients to warrant their adj
vance, or what is the same thing, max
ing themselves responsible for enor-
nous mounts of literal money. See
how the banks treat brokers' A may
have $500 in the bank, but that bank
will certify his checks to the tune of
500. 900, relying solely and simply and
absolutely, too, upon the N of honor
that will compel A to make his account
good by 2:80 in the afternoon.
That keen sense Of honor obtains with
n broker, no matter what his private
character may DO, from 10 o'clock in
the morning until 3 O'Clock in the after
noon. With many it is n life companion.
With the oarrion gang who spread their
traps and set their nets for the humber
people of the stage, rejoicing if by
happy chance they catch and ruin, it Is
forgotten and relegated to the past, or
put away for to-morrows manly deal
ings on the street, while lust and dis
sipation, and a fancy for all that is low
and dirty and degraded in the best cir
cles of New York readily find access to

A moisture like perspiration, producing a
very disagrceable itching, after getting

Drying Up the zuyder Zee.
lChicago Tribune.l

The project of drying up the hugo
Zuyder Zee is again being urged with
some vehemenee. A state Socialist"
argument is now freely used; it is said
that the gigantic task will find rich en-
ployment for the Dutch working class
population for many years, among
whom social democracy is increasing.
The provinces of Utrecht, Gelderland and
Groningen, and most of the municipali-
ties whose cities and towns lie upon the
sea, have given their adhesion to the
scheme, and have empowered a commits
sion of experts to report oil the probable
cost.
On the other hand, a few Of the
towns, including Monnikondam and
others, protest eagerly against the
scheme, since its execution must in
fallibly convert them into truly dead
cities. If the sea should ultimately be
turned into dry land the kingdom of
Holland will be enlarged by the addition
of a new province twice the size Of the
province Of Utrecht. The new country
has been already provided by anticipa-
ton with the name of "Willemsland. F"

Changing the Nose.

machine for that purpose, and has made
fortune by it, so many people are
troubled with noses whose shapes do not
please their owners or their owners
friends. The machine consisted OF a
small shell in two parts, hinged together.
It is in shape inside that of perfectly
nodded nose, according to the type of the
features of the wearer. Thus you can
obtain Roman, Grecian, retrousse,
aouiline, or any other shape you desire.
To apply the instrument the nose is first
bathed in warm water at bedtime, and
thoroughly heated and softened. Then
It is we'll creased with olive oil, glycerine,
yaseline, or other oily substances. Fin

sides clasped together, and the wearer
