WASHINGTON, D. O., April 1.-THE worst
abuse of social influence" Washington has
known in long time was shown in the re-
cent treatment oil Lieutenant James f. Simp-
son. In army circles 1t is said that there is

Certainly this generation of army men does
not remember q precedent. Simpson is net
West Pointer. He got his commission in
the regular service for gallant conduct and
honorable wounds while he was boy volun-
tesr in o Connecticut regiment. For seven
teen years he was on the frontier, and found
himself at last the senior Lieutenant with
out blemish on his record ss an officer. He
stood in the position where the next promo
ton In ordinary routine must carry him 70
Captaincy. Then began a warfare upon
Lieutenant Simpson more merciless and
n eaper than he had ever had to face in his
long services He had married lady ia New
Mexico, and in that act taken in connection
with previous evens, the Lieutenants en-
envy found the material for attack. For his
msrriage his dismissal from the service or at
least his degradation was decreed by certain
women whose phsrisaicsl souls were shocked.

In England the farmers pay annual rentals
per acre larger than the price of some farms
in this country. They live only by keeping
the land in the highest state OF cultivation.
If English farmers can afford such system
there is no reason why our farmers. who own

From Little Missouri July G, 1884, a
bay horse, eight years old and weighing
about 1000 pounds. The horse was
branded with an anchor on left
cheek and a at.brand on left shoulder.
On the left hip he had a Texas brand,
looking something like IN, connected
with flourish at top of N. A reward Of
$25 will be paid for information leading
to his recovery. The horse is the prop
erty Of John Pohi, and information can
be brought or sent to the Cow Boz office.

Ref neusent.

The term refinement does not imply an
over nicety of punctilo, or an excess of the
forms of politeness and propriety. A person
truly refined will not tiatter or detract from
another; and slander or injustice of any kind
is summed by him as carefully as contact
with the infection of plague or leprosy.
This virtue, or quality, is a native endow-
ment that thriyes most where the schools of
the worlds mis-caled institutions of culture
have done the least to develop it.
Wealth cannot purchase refinement; blood
does not always confer it, and station is too
often pitiably destitute of it. Simplicity is
ever associated with it, and personal neat
ness, good taste and an easy, unaffected
manner distinguish its richly-gifted possess
sOr.
In the humblest home we discover its die.
tates in n general air OF comfort and neat
ness, which are directed and observed not
only for self enjoyment, but with a view to
the happiness of all around us.
The truly refined individual and the vain
pretender are widely different, and the
h'llOSb hiih ANHot Gail easily ueCHGU
the imposturt. All glamour and glittering
artitice is ignored by the former, while the
latter resort to such to impress and deceive.
Private rights and feelings are never out
ragged or over-ridden by the really refined,
and modest merit is ever recognized and
appreciated, however home bred may be its
guse.
The man or woman of genuine refinement
never compels one to feel the depressing
inferiority of rank or fortune; he estimates
this difference or inequality as the mere re-
suit of accident, and would rather stihe the
uprisings Of a secret discomfort in the heart
of his or her less fortunate friend than
inflame it by a superciIious and iusolent
pre-emincnce.
A refined person is always polite without
effort or Osientation. Its origin is in the
heart, and a true benevolence and magnani-
nifty of soul are ever its royal conoomtants.

HcRIthfuI FO od.

The persons who decides what shall be
the food and drink of family, and the
modes of its preparation, is the one who de-
cides, to a greater or lesser degree, what
shall be the health of the family, and she
who adapts the food and cooking of her
family to the laws of health removes one of
the greatest risks which threatens the heal lth
of those under her care. "Who drinks beer,
thinks beer" says an old proverb, but no
body can think at all rightly with bad, ILL

it is nearly paralyzing to the optic nerve to
view the immense amount of meerschaum
pipes, meerschaum smokers, fine French

beautiful cigar cases ranging in price from
twenty-five cents to five dollars. Then
comes great variety Of Christmas cigars
that not only regale the eye of connoisse-
urs, but they embalm the air with their
fragrant aroma, ranging in price from rs
cent per box to $15. Our stock never par

Women Who Earn Their Living.

The field for employment of women is
constantly increasing, says the New York
ECening Post but as the candidates for posi-
tions multiply, the wages decrease. Women,
who five years ago were enabled to make
from $lS to s22 a week in some special
branches where men had heretofore been
employed, now ale paid from $l2 to SIS.
Still, as the occupations for women multi
ply, more livings are made in desirable and
womanly employments than ever before.
Among the better paying occupations for
young women, type-writing ranks well to
the fore. The typewriter has been brought
to its present perfection within five years
At first it was bought by few real estate
agents and lawyers, and discarded after
short trial. To-day about eight hundred
young women use the typewriter.
The field is becoming somewhat crowded,
however, and it is advisable to combine
stenography with type-writing. Girls who
are expert type-writers find employment in
law, insurance, real estate and business
offices, The commercial agencies employ
but one hundred of them. The hours are
from nine in the morning to four in the
afternoon, and the labor is rarely fatigueing
far less tiring and exacting than tele-
giaphy, and usually better paid. Type
writer operators receive from 81 to $12 a
week, although in some special instances
when the operator is required to make her.

ments as the best beefsteak, and no children
grow up to be vigorous and healthful man
hood or womanhood where close attention
is not paid to the BODYBUILDING during the
period of growth. The flesh and fat can te
put on afterward, but not one hundredth
part of an inch can the bones be made to
take on after the season of growth has come
to an end.
Food, therefore, must be abundant, sub.
stantial, nutritious and fresh; suitable to
the climate and the season, as well as to the
age and conditions Of the persons. And it
should be remembxed that nutritiousness
and digestibility are not interchangeable,
and must not be confounded. Many articles
of food are nutritious that are not easily
digested, and vice versa.

A Word Concerning Vaccination.

1t does seem superhuDus at this late day
to bring forward any new facts in support
of the value and necessity OF vaccination.
Still, the Observation-Disclosures are not all
dead yet, and until they are it seems but an
act of charity to adduce fresh proof from
time to time in the hope, vain though it may
be, of converting some of them 1t is, tf
course, well understood, though our anti
friends seem often to be unaware of it, that
the protection afforded by vaccination may
be weakened or entirely lost after a lapse of
years, and hence arises the necessity Of
revaccination. An editorial in recent
number of the London Lancet ON this subject
has called forth letter from Mr.. Herbert
Gonde, Resident Surgeon of the Smallpox
Hospital, Highgate Hill in which the most
conclusive evidence otthe prophylactic value
of vaccination is adduced. 1t is the custom
in this hospital to revaccinate all the en-
ployees as soon as they enter upon their
duties, whether they show the marks of a
previous vaccination or not. Mr.. Gonde
writes: "We have now an unbroken record
of forty-eght years during which no nurse
or servant of the hospital has contracted
smallpox, even in a modified form. The
only exception to this rule was in the case
of an assistant gardener, who was hired in
| 1881; this man refused to be revaccnated,
caught smallpox, and died. 1t seems
incredible that any sane man can, in the
face Of such evidence as this, continue in the
honest belief that vaccination does not pro
tect against smallpox. Doubtless there al,
many facts which at first sight seem t.
justify the opponents of vaccination in til,
stand which they take. Cases are by nC
means rare of smallpox occurring in sub
jects who have been cut for the cow-pox, bu
the fault lies not in the principle, but in Al
imperfect vaccination, or IN a weakening u
the protective influence through lapse O
time. No doubt also accidents sometime
occur from the incubation of impure virus
or even from the slight scratch of the ski
by the lancet, just as grave accidents some
times follow other trivial causes. But ther
surely are no arguments against the proteC
tive value of the operation. Possibly som
of these evil effects might be obviated b
