A wIFE's PREDIcAMENT.

A certain lady suspected that her hus-
band was in the habit of kissing the cook,
a pretty German girl by the by, and re-
solved to detect him in the act After
watching four days she heard him come
in one evening and gently pass through
into the kitchen. Now, Katie was out
that evening and the kitchen was dark.
Burning with jealousy the wife took some
matches in her hand, and hastily placing
her shawl over her head Us Katie often
did, she entered the kitchen by the back
door, and was almost Immediately seized
and embraced and kissed in the most
ardent manner. With h"r heart almost
bursting with rage and jealousy the in
jured wife prepared to administer ter
rible rebuke to her faithless spouse. Tear
ing herself from his embrace she struck
match and stood face to face with
Kntie's beau, one of the factory boys.
Her husband says his wife has never
treated him so well since the first month
they were married as she has for the past

OHIO RIVER IMPROVEMENT.

The completion of the Davis Island
dam at Pittsburg, which is to be cele-
brated ON Aug 10, promises to work q
revolution in the method of handling the
coal for local purposes at that place.
Heretofore in the low-water season, which
of late has comprised much more than
half the year, it was difficult to tow the
barges to the various mills and furnaces
where the fuel was wanted. The dam
will raise the water in both rivers suffi-
GENTLY to furnish q good harbor, and
allow the handling of the barges at all
seasons of the year. The effect, of course,
will be to increase the amount of river
coal mined for local use, unless natural
gas supersede coal entirely. -Philadel-

GOOD HOT WEATHER ADVICE.

1t may seem superhuous to many to
advise them to keep cool when the mer-
curry is waltzing around in the upper
nineties and occasionally overlapping the
hundreds, but that is Just when most
people need to be told to keep cool and
how to keep cool.
Don't fret over the hot weather;
that only makes it ten or twenty degrees
hotter. The only way to keep cool phi 81
cally is to keep cool mentally, and guide
every effort to attain tranquil ty and
comfort. Quiet and rest are indispensa-
ble take all that can be got.
All who can avoid exposure to the hot
rays of the sun should do so. Those
who can do so, should always be pro-
tected by umbrellas; those who can't,
should have damp linen or leaves in their
hats. 1t is always of the utmost moment
not only to keep cool as possible gen.
orally, but it is specially necessary to
keep the head cool; and there is no man
strong enough to stand exposure to the
sun of the last few days without more or
less danger to health.
Eat moderately and drink moderately.
and eat and drink only wholesome food
and beverages Whisky and beer don't
help to keep cool; too much ice water
only aggravntes the heat of the system,
and overeating or unwholesome diet null
tiply the perils of severely heated
term. A little raspberry vinegar or a lit
tie pinch of red pepper in a glass of ice
water will not only aid in quenching
thirst, but both are grateful tonics.
Above all, keep cool; If you can't keep
comfortably cool, keep cool rs you can.
and don't worry about the failure, as
worry will only make the failure worse.
Persons in good health can always make
themselves reasonably comfortable by
obeying the simple laws of common
sense, and they should be thankful for
what they enjoy and ever thoughtful of
the sick and helpless whose suherings are
intensified by the severity of the season.

NAG thfthh btMbhHMhNi THE THhbE bhNA-
TORS, AND THE PRECEDENT.
There was rather an amusing incident
at the Ebbitt House n day or two ago.
Senator Sawyer, Of Wisconsin, who was
here on route to New York. met Senators
Beck and Harris at the hotel, and, after
passing the compliments of the day,
said "Well, gentlemen, how do you
like the new administration 2"
"Well, -" said Senator Beck, after wait
ing in vain TO hear from Harris, ~ am
tolerably well satisfied. Il beats the
administration which preceded il, any
how. Yes, am pretty we'll satisfied"
80 am l." said Harris, in way that
showed that he was about as happy as
Beck, who, everybody knows, is not
happy at oil.
"Well," said Senator Sawyer. ~ think
can tell you story that will illustrate
how well you are pleased Now promise
me that II hit it right the first time you
will own up"
SO they promised.
"well," he said, "there were dozen
fellows up in our pine timber country
who dubbed together one fall TO go into
the woods and cut logs. They hadn't
much money, and their plan was to work
together mourning just as little expense
az possible, run their logs together, and,
after marketing them in the spring,
divide the money equally. This plan
was acceptable to all, when il occurred
to some one that they should have de-
cided who should be cook for the party.
II was positively necessary that some one
should do the cooking. for they were de-
termined not to hire o cook. So they all
fought against the duty. But some one
must do IL, and so it WIS decided that
they should draw lots, and the one get
ting the longest should be cook. but IL
any fellow complained of the cooking he
should take that duty himself aud excuse
the frat one selected. So they went into
camp, and the first duty that the new
cook assayed was 10 cook pot of beans.
BY some chance he got them altogether
too salt, 30 much 80 that they were en-
tirely unfit TO eat. The men were hun
CRY, however, and at meal time were
promptly on hand for. their beans. Some
of the more cautious tasted them in 81
lence, but one fellow, who was especially
hungry and fretful, bolted q whole
mouthful, and, springing to his feet.
shouted in his disappointment, "Great
heavens, how - - salt these beans
are!" Then suddenly recalling their
agreement about the fate of the first
kicker, sat himself down quickly, and
resumed his meal with the remark, "but
then like them salt"
There was roar from the politicians
who had gathered around to hear the
conversation, and Beck and Harris said
quietly: 81 guess you are right, Sawyer;
we are pleased with the administration
but we like salt."-Indidndpolis Journal.
