Lo the Poor Indian

The world is full of hypocrites, Snd

proposition to abandon the Wake

stand, are only silly; but others, know.
ing what they would do, themselves, il
they had chance, see a niger in
every wood pile. In envious fear
lest some person may get something,
not because they care whether 1t is
right or wrong, but, simply, that they
don't feel comfortable in the knowl-
edge of gain to any but themselves,
there are those who oppose the aband.
onment of the Reservation. Unable
to conceive of any but corrupt motives,
and fearing betrayal of self. knowl-
edge in the avowal of their belief
they base their opposition on the broad
principle Of hypocrisy. The poor
Piute must be cared for. Now, on any
clear day, in any camp or town in
Nevada, white men may be seen who
have neither enough to eat nor wear
But an ill.fed, scantily clothed Piut

will not remain there. Life among

Girls, Try 1t.

Dish washing is supposed tomake
the hands rough and red; but it will
have The verv opposite effect If the
following directions are obser we'd :
Never put tbe hands in water hot
enough 10 be uncomfortable never
sc'ape any dish with finger nails, and
wash your hands thoroughly every
time with warm water and some mild
soap, or Indian meal, which is better !;
wipe and rub in drop of glycerine
and little camphor ice. Dry them
carefully, but not by the fire, before
going into The air, and your hands will
be While and smooth. Ii they are not, it
will be owing to something beside
washing dlshes.

Household Recipes.

/. Take two yards molaesess, a
pound of dog bite, some ram water,
walnut and three cloves. Chop. After
the mixture has stood an hour let it
stand another hour. Shake in some
pepper, broil and serve hot. 1t is
eaten with spoon, and has a jelly.like
and pellucid appearance. But it isn't
good.
9. One and half pound alum and
horse radish Add handful of
mercurial ointment and cover with
water. When all is dissolved strain it
carefully into a pan and then throw it
away.
g. Ask your grocer for an ounce of
gallisnap-that from Jalcoppa is best.
Cut it into slices little thicker than
one dollar greenback, but mol quite as
thick as two. In each slice enfold a
slug, or If no slugs can be caught
something else will do, Crate some
nutmeg into an empty plate and lock
it up in the cupboard; then go ON with
the other thing. Two whiffs of tobacco
smoke, some Silton cheese, dead cat
and ripe egg will add piquancy to
the compound. Lemon peel and
brandy are good, each in its way, but
either woald spoil this dish. SIR
everything in that you have lying
about, moisten, mash, and bake as
hard as ever you can. Good to throw
at dog.
4. A quart of flour, three eggs,
peppers, ginger TO suit the taste, STUFF
it inio bladder and stick Glove or
garlic in the side. Boil all day and
Iadle it out blazing hot. Pour some.
thing over it. Don't know what il
makes.
5, Take quart of vinegar and stn
into it section of ratt,esnake. Boil
and skim off the singular stuff tina,
rises 10 the top. To this add pound
of lard of black hog and a sack oil
mashed potatoes. Swamp it in sherry
and sweelen. Boil it some more, and
strain 1t into an earthen vessel. Set i,
in cool place.

A New Bangle.

The newest Of the bangle freaks is a
neck ace made out of the insides of
old watches. Not only neck laces, but
earrings and pendants are made out of
that part Of the old watches which
made KIND of inner cover or shealh
OF the works. Though not wrought
out of gold as a rule, this covering WIS
always very prellily chased, and
covered with pleasant arabasque work.
Probably watch maker have for years
thrown away this part of old works as
useless Some person Of ingenuity
thought of stringing the bits of metal
into ornaments, and now they are
worn, aud may be seen in The windows
of brio a-hrac shops.

Commentators Wanted.

There are thousands of tons of good
ore lying on the dumps of mines in the
districts surrounding Hawthorne
which are only kept there by weight.
The owners are too poor TO pay freight
on all of il, but if 1t could be concen-
trated, the rich results the work could
easily be shipped. All that this sec
ton needs to make it the best country
in the world for the poor miner is that
few concentrators and small custom

plenty of ore Of all classes and grades
that is plenty now lying on the dumps

merable lodges, which are not worke ed

The nasty Mormops at Salt Lake
hung the American flag at half mast
on the 4th.

The Pail Mall Ghagette is running
q startling sensation-an exposure of
the licentious vices of aristocratic
London. The government is trying
to suppress the particular issues, but
from all accounts it might as well try
TO keep back the tide with a broom
The reason of the attempted suppress
sion is not given. Perhaps it is the
u%nclaanness Of the subject; but that is
not sufficient: cholera is unclean, but
the exposure Of its kaunts is none the
less necessary. Neither will the plea
that the aristocracy ofLondon cannot
afford" the exposure be accepted.
The blue blood of English society
assumes to be the perfection Of es-
thetic and moral purity; and this fact
makes it all the more imperative that
their shortcomings be brought to
light. There IS nothing more hateful
in this world than hypocrisy-noth-
ing that deserves a severer castiga-
ton. Society is always the gamer
when hvpocrisy--especially hypocri-
sy in high places-is dragged ont and
exposed. The endorsement of its
course by Sturgeon is good evidence
that the Pal! Mall gazette has a war
rant for its articles.
