Women VINO Won't Marry.

Men marry the rattle brains OF society.
They choose the pretty, gOOd-fOT-HOth-
ing girls, for that Is the kind they like;
they run after and marry the Hveliest
girl at = picnic OF ball, though she may
be ''hOly terror" at home; they run
after the belle and the heireSs, though
she may be selisA and spoiled, silly;
they ass by the jewels and take ''cIe
snide," for that is all they know, and
then, ike Adam, they blame the fruits
OF their own folly on the woman.
Twas ever thus.
But, Orethren-we wish 20 break IL o
you gently-there are women right mere
at home VINO have their own money 10
use as they please, who have their own
pleasant homes and congeuiai OccUpt-
items; who can, If the fancy s-izes them.

they choose, who call no man master,
and who wouldn't marry the best

This Will be a shock to you, beloved
brethren, but il Is none the less true.
Women find pleasure, comfort and hap

now to Cook a siu.kras.

Muskrat hunting Is one Of the sports
of the season ir the marshes and mill
ponds If Maryland. Thousands OF the
little animals are caught and eaten.
The uses of the muskrat are twO-fOld.
Its hide is sold to turner's. Formerly.
when muskrat fur was fashionable, the
hid easily brought 25 or 80 cents, but
nowadays 10 or 10 is all that they are
worth. AS food the excellence of the
meat depends altogether on the SKIN
ming and cooking. IL the musk bag ls
cut and the scent Is impaired TO the
meat it becomes worthless. A hunter
writes: ~ asked colored woman who
is somewhat noted for her success III
making muskrat palatable how sLe
treated tns animal. She said sns skin
ned it very carefully, washed It vel il
fresh water, soaked It for several hours
IN salt water, and then, if the weather
was cold enough, hung it in the air 50
that il would freeze. The longer iJ Is

The cold takes away the wild taste.
After this she either slews it, or, If she
wants it tried. parbOils it and fries il
afterwards. When served hot after the
foregoing treatment, it IS dish not 70

flesh of the guinea, and tastes something
like that OF the squirrel. The gentle
man, over whose kitchen the cook
alluded to presides, says that between
turkey and muskrat he prefers musk

used 20 treat this animal was either 70

Under this heading the editor Of
"ScIenee" groups together a great deal
OF information on the action Of tea, cof-
fee and chocolate. The latter, he says,
from its large proportion Of alOumen, IS
the most nutritious beverage, but at the
same time, from its quantity of fat, the
more difficult To digest. It's aromatic
substances, however, strengthen the
digestion. \ cup OF chOcOl 4te is an ex.
cellent restorative and invigO-ating
refresnment even for weak persons, pro-
vided their digestive organs are not too
delicate. Cardinal Richelieu attributed
10 ocOIate his health and hilarity du
ring later years.
Tea and coffee do not afford this adj
vantage. Albumen in tea leaves, legU-
min IN coffee berries, are represented
in very scanty proportions. The praise
Of tea and coffee as nutritiye IS there
fore hardly warranted. Tea and coffee.
though of themselves not difhcUlt Of
digestion, tend 10 disturb the digestion
Of albuminOus substances by precipita-
ting them from their dissolved state
Milk, therefore, if mixed with tea or
coffee, Is more difficult of digestion than
if taken alone; and coffee alone, with
out cream, promotes digestion after
dinner by increasing the secretion OF
juices. The volatile oil of coffee and
the empyreumatic and aromatic matters
OF chocolate accelerate the circulation
which, on the other hand Is Gained by
tea.
Tea and coffee bot b excite the actiyi-
ty of the brain and nerves. Tea, 1t IS
said, increases the power Of digesting
the impressions We have received, Gre
ates thorough meditation, and IN spite
Of the movements OF thoughts, permits
the attention to be fixed upon a certain
subject. On the other hand, II tea IS

Of restlessness and trembling Of the
limbs. COgee, also. II taken n excess.
produces sleeplessness and many baleful
effects very similar TO those OF tea
drinking. Coffee, howeve, produces
greater excitement, and a sensation Of
restlessness and heat ensues. For
throwing of this condition, fresh Ar Is
the best antltOte.

Abraham Lincoln wrote small,

The handwriting OF General Grant is
easy TO read.
Andrew Johnsou's handwriting was
large and lsbored. His fingers seemed
all thumbs.
Zachary Taylor wrote with a blunt
pen, with few aourishss and no attempt
at ornamentatlon.
John Tyler, next 10 Garfield, was the
best writer among the Presidents. lie
wrote clear, legible, open hand.
Martin Van Buren did not like to
write, but when be did sign his name
it was in large, round characters.
Franklin Pierce was the worst writer
Of all the Presidents. His writing was
not pretty, but it could be easily read.
The handwriting of William Henry
Harrison was classic. He was a man
of varied accomplishments aud wide in
formation.
No one would ever be able to eOun-
terfeit the handwriting OF Rutherford
B. Hayes. He never made the s. ne

Cure OF Consumption.

The will of the late Dr.. John VI.
Howe of Passaic has been admitted 70
probate. For many years he was a dem
tist. He leaves an estate valued at
$500. .0G0, OF which 81 500 isgiven % the
Passaic Methodist Church and the re-
mainder to his family. His father was
Captain IN the Revolutionary war and
he bequesthed the original commits
sion, a yellow document signed by
George Washington, to his son, DR.. John
n Howe OF tnis city.
A part of the will relates curtously 10
his health. A considerable portion is,
In fact, treatise on the cure of con-
sumption. He introduces the subject
by saying that in 1888 his life was pre-
served by the free Inhalation of pure,
fresh air, after which time, in deep gra-
titude to God, he made the subject Of
''correct breathing Of common air" a
study. He had been impressed by OBJ
serving the result OF sigh in the ints-
rior mechanism, the normal action OF the
organs being reversed thereby and
everything being dissrranged, while full,
deep breathing led to healthy dTelop-
ment Of all these organs. He came TO
the belief that by the adoption OF the
mode of breathing referred 70 tubercu-
lar disease and all pulmonary consumD-
tion could be forever annihilated. He
closes the treatise with the exclamation,
"God hasten the dayl"

The Law of Finding.

The law of finding IS this: The ind
er has clear title against the world ex-
cept the owner The proprietor of a
coach or a railroad car or a shop has no
right TO demand the property found on
the premises. Such pgOpTietOrs may
make regulations in regard 10 lost pro-
perty which will bind their employees,
but not the public. The law Of finding
was declared by the Kings bench 100
years ago, in d case IN which the facts
were these:
\ person found a wallet containing a
SUN of money on a shop floor. He
handed the wallet and contents 10 the
shop keeper to be returned TO the
owner. After three years, during
which the owner did not call for his
property, the finder demanded the wal
let and the money from the shOpkeeper.
The latter refuse TO give them up on
the ground that they were found on his
premises. The former then sued the
shopkeeper. and It was held as above
set forth, that against all the world but
the owner, the title of the finder is per-
feet. And the finder has been held TO
stand in the place of the owner, so that
he was permitted to prevail in an action
againsta person who found an article
which the plaintiff had originally found
but subsequently lost unless those rights
are conferred by statute. Receivers Of a.
ticles found are trustees for the owner
or finder. They have no power IN the
absence of special statute to keep an
art Gle against the finder, any more than
a finder has TO retain al article against
the owner.

Still further on we arrive at Rachael,
Tomb, modern square white struc-
ture, made of coarse plaster, rooted
over with dilapidated dome. By a
singular, coincidence of traditions,
Jews, Moslems, Armenians, Greeks,
Latins, and Protestant Christians all
unite IN pronouncing this the spot
where Rachael's life went out and Be1-
janin's began. when Jacob and his
family were journeyinZ southwark from
Bethel. The pillow which Jacob sor-
rowfully set up TO mark the site has
passed away, but the general locality in
the hearts of the people. The tomb lies
at the junction of the Bethlehem and
Hebron roads. We took the latter, of
course, pursuing journey that had
been trOdden before by Abraham,
Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, David, Saul,
Samuel, Solomon and most of the patri-
arehs and prophets of the Old Testa-
meRt. Across the valley to the right,
as we turned our backs upon the tomb,
was the modern village Of Belt Jele,
with soma 4,00c inhabitants. all Chris
tlans-the majority Latin and Greek
church dignitaries. The village was
apparently one 6f the most attractive IN
the Holy Land.

DEMOCRATIC TOLERANCE.

Bourbon Newspapers Hounding Mr.. Coon for
Expressing Ksis Political Sentiments
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE day after the
Ohio election one of the local newspapers here
interviewed Mr.. Charles E. Coon, Assistant Sec
retary of the Treasury, to secure his views as
to the effect of the result. Mr.. Co,n, in very
manly straightforward manner, informed the
reporter that the result in Ohio would aid us
largely in New York, and assured the election Of
Davenport" For this statement Mr. Coon has
been very severely criticised by the Bourbon
press and has even been insulted by some of the
newspapers which ought to have known better
The Washington Post, for instance, would be
organ of President Cleveland, devoted half
column leader to Mr.. Coon, last Thursday morn
ing, and. .fter abusing him roundy, it wound
up by saying, that the bread of tolerance should
be eaten in silence if not with gratitude This
is about as mean and contemplate fling at Mr..
Coon as could have been written by his most
bitter enemy. Since the Democratic administra-
tion came into power Mr. Coon has, unlike soma
of his associates, been outspoken in his views,
and has never attempted TO up the fact
that he is Republican, and hearty one, too.
Mr.. Coon, in order that there might be no
EN- moarrassment to Mr.. Manning, rendered his
resignation, at least told the Secretary that 10
was at his disposal whenever it should be needed.
But he has not been asked to step out, because
his services to the government are exceedingly.
valuable, especially at this time, when man
whose thorough knowledge of the iscal affairs OF
the government extends back twenty years
cannot readily be secured from the outside or
from the Democratic party The Democratic,
newspapers seem to base their arguments upon

DEATH elicits the fact that he rivaled Mark
Twain in turning his output of humor into cash.
Carleton says: "As soon as Mr.. Shaw found that
he had MADE hit with his phonetic pieces, he
made careful study of the question how to get
the largest money return from his work. He
said to himself, What book has the largest and
steadiest sale in American and his answer was,
The almanac So he resolved to make alma
macs He came to me with the idea, and l told
him that would only publish his Farmers Al
nanax, as he called it, under guarantee against
loss. He was perfectly willing, for ne had the
utmost confidence in the project; and con-
sequently he got very liberal share
of the prospective income. He was
not a whit astonished, but everybody else
was, when the first years sale reached 126. coo
copies. believe that in ten years the publica-
ton yielded altogether over $4,000 clear"
Francis S. Smith, survivor of the firm Of Street
81 Smith, relates that Shaw came to them for a
page advertisement for the cover of the first
alamanac; but they had no belief in a heavy
sale and were willing to offer only $50 for thes
space. $50 you think it won't sell 500 copies9
he exclaimed. "Well. sign contract to pay ten
cents copy for your advertisement and I'll be
satisfied" The bargain was made on that basis,
and he got more than 81, ,2C0. His shrewdness
was also shown in his solicitation of bids from
the story papers for his contributions, for he OBJ
tanned 500 week for an average of 500 words.
He lived well, but not at all extravagantly, and
leaves an estate worth $3.50, 900.
