AT WASHINGTON.
Mr.. Miller Qualified, and the Oath
Administered.
A LARGE DEMOCRATIC DELEGATION
Call Upon Mr.. Miller Under a Misap-
PreheusiOn--Judge Johnson Urged
for a Mission.
OFFICIAL DoINes AT THE CAPITAL.
Special 10 ths Re0isfsr.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March I9.-Joseph
5. Miller was qualified to-day as Commis-
sioner of Internal Revenue in the presence
OF Secretary Manning and Assistant Secre-
tary Fsirchild and Senator Camden at
three o'clock this afternoon. Mr.. Miller
took the oath of Office which was admins
tered in the office Of the Secretary by one
OF the notaries connected with the depart
ment. Mr.. Miller was conducted to the
commissioners Office and at once relieved
Mr.. Evans, who received his successor iu
the most cordial manner. Mr., Miller will
remain here for several days and acquaint
himself with the duties of his new
position, after which he will take q
brief vacation and 60 to Wheeling for
the purpose Of settling up his private bust
ness. An amusing incident occurred in the
othce of the Commissioner Of Internal Reve-
nue. this morning. A large Democratic
delegation including several members Of
Congress called to pay their respects to Mr..
Miller, the new Commissioner, and entered
the Office unconscious of the fact that the
old and not the new incumbent was in
possession. The delegation was so large
and the entrance so imposing that they
found it difficult to explain their presence,
and, after little hesitation, related it in
confusion. Commissioner Evans called
upon his successor at his hotel and had
pleasant chat about the duties which the one
was about to surrender and the other as
sumo All that is known of Mr.. Miller at
the department indicates that he will be
courteous, efficient and popular officer.

The Tin Of the Tongue.

In civilized life we find everything
ready labeled and assorted for us; VIC
comparatively seldom require to roll the
contents of a suspicious bottle lin very
small quantities) doubtfully upon the
tongue in order to discover whether it is
pale sherry or Chilli vinegar, Dublin
stout or mushroom ketchup. But in the
savage state, from which, geologically
and biologically speaking, we have only
just emerged, bottles and labels do not
exist. Primitive man, therefore, in his
sweet simplicity, has only two modes
open before him for deciding whether
the things he finds are or are not strict
ly edible. The first thing he does is to
siiiff at them, and smell being, as Mr..
Herbert Spencer has well put it, an an
ticipatoty taste, generally gives him
some idea of what the thing
is likely to prove. The second thing he
does is to pop it into his mouth, and pro.
ceed practically to examine its further
characteristics. Strictly speaking, with
the tip of the tongue one can't really
taste at all. If you put small drop OF
honey or of oil of bitter almonds on that
part of the mouth, you will find, no
oOuo1 W JOui BiSdO oui pIlSS, IudJ ~ pIO-
duccs no effect of any sort; you only
taste it when it begins slowly to diffuse
itself, and reaches the true tasting re-
gion, in the middle of the distance. But
If you put little cayenne or mustard on
the same part, you will find that it bites
you immediately-the experiment should
be tried sparingly-while if you put it
lower down in the mouth you will swal.
low it almost without noticing the pun
gency OF the stimulant. The reason is
that the tip of the tongue is supplied
onl with nerves which are really nerves
of t( ,,ch, not nerves of taste, proper;
theyk, elong to totally different main
branch and they go to a different center
in the brain, together with the very
similar threads which supply the nerves
of smell for mustard and pepper. That
is why the smell and taste of these pun
gent substances are SO much alike as
everybody must have noticed; a good
sniff at mustard pot producing almost
the same irritating effects as an incau-
tious mouthful. = COrRhW.

Don't Use Big Words.

In promulgating your esoterie cogita-
tions, or articulating your superficial
sentimentalities and amicable, philo-
sophical or psychological observations,
beware of platitudinous ponderosity.
Let your conversational communications
possess a clarified conciseness, a com
pacted comprehensiblenes, coalescent
consistency, and concatenated cogency.
Eschew all cOnglomerations of fatulent
garrulity, jejune babblement and asinine
affections. Let your extemporaneous
descantings and premeditated expatia.
tions have intelligibility and veracious
vivacity, without rhodomontade or
thrasonical bombast. Sedulously avoid
all polysyllabic profundity, pompous pro-
lixity, psittaceous vacuity, ventriloquial
verbosity, aud vaniloquent vapidity
Shun double entendres, prurient jocosity,
and pestiferous profanity, obscurant or
apparent. In other words, talk plainly,
briefly, naturally, sensibly, truthfully,
purely. Keep from slang" don't put
on airs; say what you mean; mean what
you say. And don't use big words =

Making Leather From Catfish skin

"When 1 was shooting on the st.
Francis river in Arkansas, some years
ago, l discovered that catfish skin made
good leather" said Jacob Trungenwalt,
the fishing tackle maker ON Third street,
Yesterday "and l have manufactured il
ever since. heard story when / was
there about big catfish which had
broken all the nets in the neighborhood,
and laid for him with my gun beside
pool which he frequented. l stayed there
all day and was leaving at moonrise,
when l threw the remnants of some
canned salmon on which / had lunched
into the river. SuddenlysI saw huge
black shining object roll half out of the
water. My heart leaped into my mouth.
L pulled myself together and held my
gun in readiness. There was another
splash, then bang went my gun, and
floating in the pool saw the big catfish.
He was dead, the bullet having gone
through his head. He weighed 100
pounds Well. sir, I had him skinned
in no time, intending to stuff the skin,
but the fellow gave the job to made a
beautifully tanned instead. A happy
thought struck me that might profit by
the accident, and started and have since
successfully carried out a catfish skin
tannery. We make use of it for every.
thing. from shoe laces to slippers, cabas,
pocketbooks and fancy pocket case GOV.
ers." The leather is light gray in color,
very soft, and Mrs Trungenwalt says,
tougher than the hide of badger. -

Knox was Washipgton's secretary of

A Fortune in Celery.

Fifteen years ago Lendert De Brazen,
a Hollander, was poor gardener near
Kalamazoo, Mich, trying TO make a
living off of some marshy land he had
purchased. After other things had failed,
he experimental with celery and is now
a rich man. What was dozen years
ago a swami is to-day a vast celery field,
beside which a hundred acre lot is but
garden. The shipping season begins in
July, increases until the holidays, then
gradually decreases until the crop is dis
posed of in the spring. Fifty tons daily
are now being sent out, and the crop OF
1884 will reach 5000 tens. Twenty
thousand stalks are raised upon an acre
of ground. II is said that 1000 persons
in that locality are engaged in this in

HOE OUT YOUR ROW.

yns summer day a farmers boy
Was hosing out the corn,
And modify had listened long
To hear the diffpsr horn.
The welcome blast Was heard at last
And down he dropped his hoe,
But the good man shouted m his ear,
my boy, hoe out your row..
Although q hard one was the row,
To use a plowrDan's phrase,
And tlss boy, as sailors have it,
Beginning now to ''haze;"
II can" he said end maufuIly
Again he seized IFS hoe,
And the good man snfaed to see
The boy hoe out his row,
The lad the text remembered,
And learned the lesson well,
That perseverance to the end
At last will nobly tell
Take courage, man; resolve you cam
And strike a vig'rous blow;
In hfe's wide field of varied toll
Always "hoe out your rou"
