The salt Licks" of India.

There are weeds that can be eaten by
people in distress, but salt is indispensa-
BILE to make them bearable. Salt is,
however, a government monopoly and
costly article to the poor East Indians.
England sells for from SIS to $50 salt
whose cost value is 81. Next to water,
salt is a necessity of Indian diet. Many
used to make "earth salt" by washing
saline earth found on the surface, and to
boil their food in the liquid. For this
they were punished. They stole out in
the night to lick it up from the earth in
the dark, and then the police destroyed the
salt ticks. "-Chicago Herald.

How to Grease an Axle.

A paper devoted to the coach making
Industry tells how to grease an axle: A
well made wheel will endure constant
wear from ten to twenty-five years, il
care is taken to use the right kind and
amount of grease; but if this matter is
not attended to, it will be used up in
five or six years. Lard should never be
used on wagon, for it will penetrate
the hub, and work its way out around
the lemons of the spCkes, thus spelling
the wheel. Tallow is the best lubricator
for wooden axle trees, and castor oil for
iron hubs, but many of the patent axle
greaScs are also excellent, and have the
merit of being cheaper and more con
vcncnt to handle. Just grease enough
should be applied to the spindle of a
wagon to give it slight coating. This
is ietter than more, for the surplus put on
will work cut at the ends, and be forced
by thu shoulder bands and nut washer
into the huh around the outside of the
boxes. 10 oil an iron axletree first
wipe the :ndle clean with cloth wet
with sp:';,s of turpentine, and then
apply o y drops of castor oil near the
shoulder md end. One teaspoonful is
sufficient ior the whole.

The Tramp's Hands.

What I mean by keeping the hands in
good order is this: OF course. in tramp

them, they must be horny and toilworn.

ofmy business to keep my hands looking
as though they belonged to a man who
was accustomed to work 365 days in the

is round and very smooth. About twice
day I take it between my palms and rub
them so that the friction will make them
hard and callous. In that way you see I

Protection Against Bees.

The danger of attempting to work
among bees without some kind of face
covering has recently heen exemplified
in the case of an Indiana farmer, who
lost his life from his temerity. The
farmer had large num,e of colonies Of
bees, and one day recently swarm came
out which seemed of a somewhat cross
disposition. There was considerable
trouble in hiving them, and while doing
this the man was stung twice on the side
of the nose. He complained at once OF
the unusually severe pain, and his wife,
who was assisting him, fastened to the
house for medicine. When she returned,
which was less than five minutes, she
found her husband lying dead upon the
ground, having evidently expired in great
agony. The opinion of the phys clans
was that the cause of death was paralysis
of the heart, induced by the severe pain
of the stings. There are many ee-keep.
ers who boast that they are able to do all
the work of the apiary with no protection
to the face, and while 1t may be little
unpleasant in very warm weather to put
on a veil, still, when the risks that are
run are taken into consideration, it is Just
as well to be little less bold and take
precautions which may possibly be the
means of saving life, as would have been
the case in the instance cited CkacagG

man and his bride is rather more spirited
than affectionate Mrs Schclling looks
thin and anxious. She was plump and
rath,r light hearted when her runaway
marriage occurred. Now the girls at
the Casino are telling that she cries in
her dressing-roon between the scenes on
the stage, and there are rumors that she
is badly treated at home Her father,
understand, would take her back to his
home if she would get away from hel
hush md; but she is not quite ready tc
do that. She is, however, beginning to
think that she male great mistake in
life and to feel her humiliation very
keenly. But she is too full of pluck tc
acknowledge her error publicly, so she
grows pale and thin and goes away by
herself to weep. She now gets sixty
dollars a week at the Casino, and the
people in the company like her and have
sympathy for her apparent distress. She
will never be very much Of an actress,
but she sings well enough and looks
we'll enough to be sure of earning good
living on the stage as long as she may
choose to stay there.

Chocolate.

Chocolate is one OF the articles of trade
most susceptible OF adulteration, since a
very small quantity of the cocoa bean
imparts taste and perfume to a mixture
of tasteless and not always harmless mat
ter. Unscrupulol manufacturers (and
especially is this applicable to the small
producer) introduce into the paste -four,
ground corn and beans, stale coffee
grounds, veal or mutton tallow Ito sup
ply the necessary oily substance) and the
dregs of ground nut, (peanutS after the
oil has been completely extracted. The
latter substance. which few years ago
was employed as q fertilizer and occa-
sionally made into takes as food for dogs,
is now profitably converted into choco-
late. Add to the above ingredients cocoa
shells and ground brick, the latter to
give weight, and the component parts of
cheap chocolate are given. Chocolate
manufacturers admit, with refreshing
artleysness, that adulterated chocolate Is
very little used in France, but is profit
ably exported. It is difficult to d:stin-
euish good chocolate from fabricated,
from ths appearance Of the tablets. Good
chocolate possesses the following quail
ties: it is oily, possesses a full and unde-
niable flavor of cocoa, breaks regularly
and smooth, it is slightly ye!lowish in
co,or, WIN crystalline appearance, and
when cooked with little water or milk
becomes only moderately thick. Adul-
terated chocolate, on the contrary, breaks
irregularly, is somewhat gravelly and
porous, is whitish in color, thickens con-
siderably in cooking and gives forth an
ordor resembling that of glue.-c0ntee-

A Bulgarian Hercules.

In the Bulgarian village of Ostrova,
correspondent of the Faeie Presse recent
ly witnessed the exploits of rustic
athlete who could make his fortune in
any North American circus. He snapped
an inch tow by passing one loop over his
neck and shoulders and the other around
his beaded knee, and then stra; ghtening
ont with an effcrt that turned his fore
head into cluInp of wrinkles. With an
end of the same tow he then got hitch
around o sixty-pound chunk Of lime
stone, and after giving it few pendu.
lum swings, whirled It around his head
like slungshot. A boy attendant then
handed him stone jug of the heaviest
caliber, which he wrapped up in shaw
ard chucked between his crossed arms
and his chest. "Will you pay for it if
break it2" he asked, after giving the
bundle preliminary hug. Coppers
drop ed in from all sides, and under the
next hug the massive stoneware collapsed
like an egg-shell. Samson next seizl d
a wheelbarrow by the end of the handles.
"Who will give me form if I let him
sit in here and lift this thing the way
hold it2" No one seeming disposed to
volunteer, Samson made his boy get
aboard and hold the limestone rock be-
tween his knees. Seizing the barrow at
the very extremity of the handles, he
raised it clean off the ground, held it
out at arms length for at leust five Sec
onds, and then lowered it without allow
ing the front end to tip single inch:
He then produced lerge grain sack and
offered to bag any fellowman in less than
ten minutes for bet of five against two
florins. A broad -shouldercd raftsman
accepted the challenge on condition that
the matador should refrain from using
his fists. A ring was formed, and the
raft man proved a toagh customer, but
in spite of all his kicking and bracing
the champion finally gos lock-grip
around his arms, and in the next moment
ensackcd his person from b; ad to heels,
amidst the laundering plaud is of the
rustic spectators.

A New NavigabIe River Discovered

The report published by Lieut.. Won
Nimptsch of the German army, gives
some very interesting details of the jour
n " which he made with Herr Wolff, a
Traveller in the service of the Congo Free
state, and which has resulted in the dis
covery of river likely to be of material
value to traders with the Congo.
The Congo in its course from the so nth
east, makes very wide bend to the
north, and then descends again to the
Atlantic, a very large tract OF country
being embraced in the curve. Within
this curve is the river Kass al, which
Lieut.. Won Nimptsch regards rs being
"of even greater Importance to commerce
tha n the Congo itself" Describing their
Journey, he says that as far as Lucbu, the
Kassai flows through wide plains well
ad apted for cultivation, pasturage, and
forests of palm trees and gutta-percha
tr es. There are many villages on the
banks, and the travellers met with great
civility in all of them save one, the in
habitants of which fled at their approach.
One tribe, adds Lieut.. Won Nimptsch,
twas remarkable for its joviality. The
natives accompanied the steamer in their
csnocs, and when we landed, organized
dances and songs in our honor" There
is a great deal of ivory all along the kas-
SAL and large pieces of the finest quality
were readily given in exchange for empty
boxes and tins.-Londn n Times.
