FOOT-ROOT IN SHEEP.
A Remedy Which Speedily Cures Even the
Most Desperate Cases.

Most Desperate Cases.
For number of years we occasion
ally had what Stephen Powers and
many other shepherds term ''foot-
scald." We were able to control this
by an occasional application of blue
vitriol and vinegar, but the wet sum-
mer of 1888 it Cor more complicated
case of foot-roD became uncomfortable
by any such mild treatment. We re-
sorted to about all the remedies we
could hear of, but all to no purpose,
still our sheep continued to hop. We
became not only discouraged but dis
gusted with our sheep and remarked
that they would have to get rid of the
disease soon or the last one would have
to leave the farm. Just when the dis
case was in it's very worst state and our
hopes of recovery at the lowest point,
we saw a remedy that made a favor
able impression on our minds, and we
resolved to give it trial. The result
was, the first application cured nearly
every foot in a flock of over three
hundred, but to make sure work
we went over all the second time
and the worst ones three times.
Since that time we have neglected
the trimming of our sleeps feet
as we never did before and have
had no trouble with our former foot
scald, until this spring. During the
latter part of the winter my help hauled
out the manure from the department in
sheep-house where we doctored our
sore-footed sheep nearly three years
ago, and neglected to put in a good
bedding of straw, as have always done
heretofore; consequently, in ten or
fifteen days | discovered some signs of
foot-rot but took but little notice of it,
knowing that the sheep had not been
off the farm and no others near them,
and did not think of their taking it in
the house after so long time. | soon
found that had another case of genu-
inc foot-rot on hand, but only in this
one flock of ewes; others in the same
building but in different departments
have never shown any signs of it. ]
Immediately resorted to my former
remedy, and have them again sound
and well. Here it is: Take equal parts
in weight of pulverized blue vitriol and
red led; add enough nitric acid to make
a thick paste; clean the foot well, re-
moving all diseased parts, and apply
with small paddle.-D. j. Green, IN

A Missourian' Little Game.

And now comes tale of woe from
Burden, Cowley County, which, if true,
takes the premium over all COMPETE
tors. A man who got mad at the coun.
try and longed to sell his farm received
an offer from a Missouri man and ac-
cepted it. The Missourian offered him
seventeen mules for his farm, agreeing
to ship the mules as soon as the deed
to the farm was deposited with the
mule mans banker. Accordingly the
deed was forwarded, and the pun chaser
looked anxiously for the mules. He
did not think of the animals coming by
express until he received notice to cali
at the office. Upon calling he found
seventeen china mules-the price OF
his farm. He lost no time in going to
see his man, but the latter had sold out
and skipped. -LeaUenworth (Kan. }

STREET LEMONADE.
An Interesting Business Conducted by
italian Savants on City Streets.


An Interesting Business Conducted b,
italian Savants on City streets.
The naughty youths who jerk soda
water did tremendous business in
strip and squirt, but the palm of hot
weather commerce was awarded to the
Italian savants who brew lemonade on
the street, and who drew in fortunes
hand over hand. Street lemonade is
gagged in price and quality to suit all
grades of society from tramp to million
aire. You can get glass for two
cents, three cents or five cents. For
five cents the man will rinse the glass
in a mysterious bucket under the
counter, and will polish it with his own
private handkerchief, insert two spoon
fuls of crushed sugar with a flourish
which alone is worth the price, squeeze
in the Juice of a whole lemon. fill in
with cracked ice, draw water from the
cooler flip the whole thing into a tin
extinguisher, and shake it up violently
for several seconds, jug-jug-jug-jug-
jug, dislocate the extinguisher, float a
triangle of orange on top, plunge in
two straws, hand it over to you with o
~
with that admiring smile with which
the true artist regards his patron, then
thank you and give you punched
nickel in change. For three cents he
squeezes in half lemon, filings in the
sugar and fly or two, drops in frag-
ment of ice with his finger, gives the
mixture one circular swipe with
spoon, gives you one straw with a leak
in it, and there you are. If he rinses
the glass at all, it is after you have
used it. For two cents he grabs up
tumbler that hasn't been rinsed this
season, fills it from lukewarm tank,
previously used as dumping-ground
for lemons already squeezed for five
cent glasses, and containing one spoon
full of sugar to the gallon, and then
slaps it down before you with an air of
one who would rather have pay in adj
vance and is prepared to give chase
and use stomach-pump in case of de-
fault. Like the June-bug and the bird
cage car, the street lemonade man is
strictly summer institution. During
the dog-days he amasses capital with
gorgeous ease, and is a monarch and a
proprietor, but as the days wane his
business takes drop and he resorts to
aniline and yelling to invite a customer
which comes no more, and then wakes
idle and somnolent, the sun gets at his
ice and blue mold and the small boy at
his lemons, flies and red ants riot in his
sugar-bowl, the dust chokes up his
straws and the wind steals and scatters
them, and finally blast comes down
from the north and nips the business at
. breath, and he vanishes and is seen
no more.-N. Y. Times.

Men Who Make Fee-Giving Very Profit.
able Investment.
at is wonderful how many promi-
nent business men, who would not put
their hands in your pocket to pick your
purse for any consideration, will stand
in with the restaurant walters to beat
the establishment, said a prominent
hotel man.
"How is the game worked?"
at is a simple thing, but it depends
entirely on the large crowds that
throng fashionable restaurants at din
ner time. When sixty or seventy men
are eating in one room the cashier
can't see what each one has unless he
leaves his desk, and it is very easy for
customer at the further end of the
apartment TO eat ninety cent dinner
and pay for thirty or forty cent
meal"
"HowF"
"In this way: The customer gives
the waiter daily tip of ten cents. The
waiter is careful to see that his bene-
factor gets a thirty cent check, say
every time he eats ninety cent meal.
The check is paid at the counter and no
one is the wiser"
"Are walters never caught at these
tricksP"
"Ot course, once in great while. A
yellow chap-that wore his white apron
at the end of that eating bar for six
MONTHS" said the speaker, pointing to
the bar, "got caught at last" He was
in the habit of giving an old, white
mustached gentleman soup, roast,
three or four vegetables, desert, coffee,
and often few crackers and Roquefort
cheese every day. Well, that customer
ought to have paid one dollar meal,
but he never brought in check for
over fifty cents. At last the cashier
took note of the meal provided for fifty
cents. called the waiter up after in
speeding one dinner purchased by that
man and the fifty cent check turned
in, and bounced the darky. 1t had a
good moral effect among the Other
walters, forty in ALL"
care there no means to prevent this
beating the houseP"
The hotel man shook his head sadly

How a Chicago Damsel Entertained the
Patrons of Street-Car Company.
Chicago has one thing that in long
and varied experience have never en-
countered elsewhere-a girl that
whistles in the street cars. One day
last week | boarded a Wabash avenue
cable car, and had scarcely taken a
seat when a girl about eighteen or
twenty years of age got on. She was
nice enough looking girl Chicago
women are seldom pretty, with good
complexion and trim figure. She sat
down and no one paid any attention to
her, until all at once she began
whistling like blackbird or bootblack.
She treated the astonished and
amused passengers to selections from
1.-The Mikado," "Black Hussar" and
'Nanon," and when | left the car she
was just starting in on Hear Me,
Norma" Now have often seen and
longed to throttle the male street car
whistler, but this was my first expert
ence with the female of that ilk, and
from the looks of mingled consterna-
ton and amusement on the faces of the
other passengers, Judge she was new
to all of us. She whistled away,
seemingly unconscious of the fact that
she was creating sensation. | say
see seemed unconscious of it, but don t
believe she was so. l believe she
wanted to show off her accomplish
ments, and really her whstling
amounted to an accomplishment

A few days ago Jim was invited to dine at
o'clock at the Peterby mansion, but he
heard during the morning that a prominent
sheepman would be at the store about that
time to purchase big bill of goods so jim
had to forego the pleasure of dining with the
Peterbys.
A little after 8 Jim said to the colored

"Sam, l want you to go to Mrs. Judge

her that regret my inability to be present
