Cattle Lice.

All kinds of farm animals are more
liable to attacks of lice in winter than
in summer. because during the cold
weather they are usually crowded in
stables or yards that are not kept as
clean and well ventilated as they should
be. Colonel F. D. Curtis recommends
the following for killing lice ON cattle,
and it is probably as good as any of the
ointments made especially for this pur-
pose. Melt hogs lard, and in it dis
solve salt one-third of the bulk of the
grease; take as much of this grease as
will be required to smear the animal all
over, and into the mixture pour kero-
sene oil and stir it up. Two gills of
the kerosene would be sufficient for a
cow OF ordinary size. One application
will De sufficient to destroy the lice and
leave the skin smooth and soft.-N.

Iron Telegraph Poles

A metallic telegraph pole has been
adopted by the Canadian Government
for its telegraph lines on the North
western prairies. The pole is con-
structed of malleable galvanized iron
and is II inches in diameter at the top
and p inches in diameter at the bot
tom, and weighs less than fifty pounds.
The bottom of the pole is setin claw
plate, upon which the earth is closely
packed to height of about two feet.
Then another plate is put into place
around the pole and the earth packed
upon it to the level of the ground. The
claw-plates take a hold in the ground
at once, so that the pole becomes
solidly fixed Immediately after being
set, which desideratum is only obtained
by the ordinary wooden pole after it
has been in the ground for at least
year. A recent test is said to have
shown the great strength of the pole,
as heavy No. government wire was
strung and the poles subjected to the
greatest possible strain, but without
moving them in the least.-N. Y. Post.

How "Mister" Originated.

At time when men were generally
called by their Christian names and
surnames only, the word Mister was
PROBABLY applied as a sort of title to
those who had learned a mystery or
trade, and who would perhaps be
looked upon as of higher rank or posi-
ton than mere laborers or husband
men. The question SO often met with
in old writers: "What mister wight is
that?" meaning, what is that mans
employment and consequent condition
in lifeP seems to favor this view.
Smart, however, seems to think that
Mister was adopted, or at least pro-
NOTED, for the sake of analogy with
mistress" ''for mistress, among old
English writer's" says Smart, soften
had the form of mastress in order to
suit with master, which was then used
where we now find mister. +" Walker
says, likewise, that ''the same process
of change which has corrupted master
into mister, has, when it is title of
civility only, contracted mistress into
missus. Toledo Blade.

The Busiest and Most Careworn Man In
the Ottoman Empire.


the Ottoman Empire.
His Majesty the Sultan of the Otto.
man Empire is most high and puis-
saint monarch. His will is law and his
nod is death. He has many palaces;
he rules despotically over vast en-
pire; he makes quantities of Pashas
cross their fawning hands whenever he
looks at them; he has the power to do
anything to any one of his faithful SUBJ
jects-except recall him to life after he
has killed him. But social power he
has none. His life is passed in an end
less round of official drudgery, nay,
positive servitude. Each minutest de-
tail of business, from the highest WIS.,
ions of diplomacy down to the opening
of new coffee house on the shores of
the Bosphorus, passes through his au-
gust hands; and each incident of every
transaction forms focus of intrigues
which, in their conglomerate mass, it
would take twenty Sultan's with hum
dred times Abd-ul-Hamid' power to
disarm and defeat. What time, there
fore, can he have to spare for society?
The commander of the Faithful may
be seen any week as he goes to his Fri
days prayer. Then, before the
gaze of an adoring populace,
through lines of splendid troops,
crowds of brilliant aides-de-camp and
Pashas, fair yelled ladies, braying brass
bands and screaming dogs there passes

glance round, and so is lost to view be-

considers why that face is so worn and
pale, why those hands are so nervous,
how the heart behind that blue military
coat must be beating like roll of
drums, one feels grateful that one is
but private individual, and not his

ual fear of assassination. The head of

him. He is quiet, sober, reflective
creature, who, after his days work,
! likes to return to his house, put en- his
old slippers and his old coat, ands after
his evening meal. devote himself to con-
templative smoking among his women
folk and children. Or, if he is in a
more social mood, he will perhaps in
vite some of his intimates to smoke, and
chuckle over childish stories with them
in the outer chamber. Again, he can
not return hospitality; the harem sys-
tenn puts that out of the question.
Finally, he likes to go to bed and to
rise early-habits incompatible with
social duties. es.-Fortrsightly Revieso.

had been treated with perfect courtesy,
