A Boss Mistake.

Detroit Free Press.
There is a saloon out on Grand River ave-
nue. which has long been the headquarters
of the Boss from Bossville. Whatever he
asserted in politics, religion, social science
or finance had to be accepted as gospel, OF
he would mash the dissenter. He was a
fighter and hard hitter, and most of his
victims came to their senses to softly in
quire if the cyclone had left anybody else
alive.
A pair of events happened the other day
to aStoniSh the Boss and his cohorts. He
was laying down the law ON evolution and
just aching for somebody to dispute him,
when stranger with venerable gray locks
and venerable white whiSkerS came in for
glass of beer. He listened to the Boss for
a moment, and then, to the horror OF the
select circle present, he boldly challenged
the correctness of each and all the aSSer-
tiOnS.
Stranger" said the Boss as he rose up
with an electric-light OF acknowledgement
in each eye, ''d'ye mean to dispute me?"
''Sartin l do!'
Actually dispute?"
eyes"
81 wont jam you through the floor, l
wontm said the Boss in voice which wob-
bled with emotion, ''nor [ wont send you
home in the ambulance. but"
''Thank youP' interrupted the old man.
''But I'll head you for out doors and give
you short ride ON the toe of my boot to
teach you manners"
With that he grabbed at the venerable
whskers with his right hand, and clutched
the venerable gray locks with the other.
Both pulled away, and as he stood holding
them in his hands thunderbolt lodged in
on his nose. AS he went down he had a
dim consciousness that the house was falling
in, and that the town of Bossville had been
swept away by tidal wave. The stranger
worked away at him until tired out, and
then drank his lager, picked up his disguise,
and left the place with the remark:
''Some of you had better tell him that he
took dose OF laughing-gas. 1t will sort
O. let him down easy"
When the Boss finally opened his eyes to
ask what had happened they tried the
laughing-gas dodge on him, but it was no
go. He gathered up his punched head and
bruised body into bundle and went out
and sat down On the commons and slowly
figured it all out by himself. The Boss had
been downed. Bossism was played out.

PEACH WINE.-The flavor of the peach is superior to that of any other fruit in the world. Peach wine has been made from the juice of soft ripe peaches, which, it is said, by means of a certain process of manufacture becomes a wine of the most delicious char acter and the very choicest flavor. It is further said that no alcoholic liquor of any kind, and no alcohol in any shape is added; neither are any drugs or chemicals added. The process is new, and accor- ding to the Inyo Independent, is the invention of s. A. Densmor e of Independence, who has taken out a patent for the same.

Feline Reasoning.

A German dlplomatist of the last century has recorded curious observation respecting a favorite female cat, and advances it as proof of consecutive and conclusive req soning on the part of the animal. q noticed" said Baron von Glei chen, ''that she was constantly looking at herself in the glass, re- treating from her own image and running back to it again, and es- pecially scratching at the frames, for all my glasses were inserted in panels. This suggested the idea to me of placing a toilet mir TOT in the middle of the room, so that my cat might have the pleas ure of examining it all around. She began by making sure (by ap- preaching and withdrawing as usuaD that she was dealing with a glass like the others. She passed behind it several times, more quickly each time; but, seeing that she could not get at this cat, which was always too quick for her, she placed herself at the edge of the mirror, and, looking alternately at one side and the other, she made quite sure that the cat which she had just seen neither was nor had been behind the mlrror. Then she arrived at the conclusion that the cat was inside of it. But how did she proceed to test this conclusion, the last that remained to her? Keeping her place at the edge of the mirror, she rose on her hind feet and stretched out her fore paws to feel the thickness of the glass; then aware that it did not afford sufficient space to contain cat, she withdrew dejectedly. Be- ing convinced that the matter in question, was a phenomenon i'm possible for her to discover, be- cause it was outside the circle of her ideas, she never aga1n looked in any glass, but at once re- nounced an object which had vainly excited her curiosity.

The scheme to transport a large number of Scotch crofters to the Hawiian Islands to work the sugar plantations does not promise sue cess. Those sturdy peasants never would would submit to the slavery and degredation borne by the coolies whom it is proposed to sup plant. The crofter question can not be settled by the exile into foreign slavery of those whom ill management deprives of an honest living at home.

Those who have experience say that the durability of shingles may be doubled by dipping them into gas tar and resin-boiled into a pltch-while the mixture is hot. The top need not be coated. This substance fills all the pores of the wood so perfectly as to make the shingles impervious to water, in fact they are claimed to be next to slate in point of durability as roof ing material.

American school-books are not desired in Argentine. A New York firm sent textbooks into the coun- try, according to contract, but neither the histories nor geogra- phies were accepted. Itwas found that they represented the condi- tion of the country as it was twen- ty-fve years ago and alluded to it as "The Argentine Confedera- tion." The use of that term was mortal insult to the people, since it was decided by a civil war that Argentine is not a confederation of States, but nation.
 On a farm at Pottstown, Penn sylvania, rabbits girdled a lot of young apple-trees some years ago. In two cases of choice fruit the owner undertook to save the trees. The young shoots which usually spring up from below the ''girdle" were allowed to grow long enough to reach the sound bark above the ''girdle," and then inserted under the bark, after the manner of in oculating trees, and securely tied. They grew and nourished the ma1n stem of the tree above, and now, after some years, the trees rest entirely upon their inserted supports and are as vigorous as any in the orchard. One of these trees has five of these ''legs," winch have now by growth been almost consolidated. The other tree has seven, all distinct as yet, but growing closer. The old stem below the insertion is dead and decayed in the one tree, and in the other 1t is entirely gone, and they look as if standing upon stools.

rron Letter tO luuldudpollS IuileS.
 It IS lamentable fact that but small portion of the Mexican people can read and write. The total number of illiterate persons is not definitely known, there be- ing no accurate census returns to which reference can be made. The most reliable estimate that can be arrived at places the num- Der at 100000, or fully two thirds of the entire population. It is safe to say that of all the daily papers published in the City of Mexico no one of them has a circulation of 500 copies outside of the city of publication, while it is more than probable that the combined outside circulation of all the dailies will not exceed that number. I have been Tn a Mex ican city of 12,000 inhabitants where not a single copy of daily newspaper was subscribed for by the entire native population, and where not fifty newspapers of any kind were received at the post office, except those addressed to residents and visitors of foreign birth.

We see it stated that there are four plans for reducing obesity First, the eating of nothing con- taining starch, sugar or fat, which is the Banting system. Second the eating of fat, but not sugar o1 starch, called the German Banting Third, wearing only wool, and sleeping 1n flannel blankets instead of sheets, the Munich system. Fourth, not eating and drinking at the same time, or rather, within couple of hours, tEe Schwenin- ger system. There is another sys- tenn which I thlnk is better than any of these; it is to simply eat what agrees with you in such mod crate quantities that your flesh will reduce, say, pound week. This may not tickle the fancy like some of the above. but 1t is the best of anti-fat means. It will operate perfectly with man or a horse. You can easily reduce a horse from 1900 to 1000, or man from 200 to 160.-Dio Lewis.
