Baby's Toilet.

Every mother knows how difficult ii
is to clean the baby's fngernails. By
folding some tissue paper into sharp
point, and, when using it, calling the
attention of the baby to something
else, this simple task can be easily per-
formed. The paper is so soft that il
does not hurt the tender flesh, yet it is
sufficiently firm to remove every par
ticle of dirt. Ny children sometimes
cry when taken out of water, but never
when they are put in I think it is be-
cause they have such good frolic in
the bath that they dislike to leave it.
The tub should be but half full of wa
ter. and should be placed on two chairs
OF q low stand, for there is danger of
draughts if it is put on the floor. Set
it before an open fire if possible, and
see that the baby's clothes are warm
and we'll aired before putting them on.
In winter, when giving very young
infant q bath, it is best to wrap it In Q
large piece of old flannel, and then put
the baby into the water gradually,
without removing the flannel until it
has been in the tub for minute or
two. The water should be lukewarnl.
Always wash the baby's head, face,
mouth, and tongue thoroughly before
putting it into the tub, and give It Q
feaspoonful of cool water to drink. Ii
possible. let the hour for feeding come
directly after the bath, and then the
habv Is ready for the long morning
nan When the child is old enough to
81 mn in the tub alone, it is always
well to let it have some toy to take into
the bath. such as q tiny rubber doll OF
animal. or d little wooden or paper

Jim that night was one Of sorrow and
sadness; for, in spite of all that he
could do, the tears would come and
mix with his voice, and even Jim's
face had traces of tears upon it.
As the story progressed Jim moved
up closer to the old man, and when it
was finished he leaned his head against
Missouri's breast
II see it all now. Forgive me, for
give me, sobbed Jim.
just then Missouri, with q faint
moan upon his lips, fell over backward
in dead swoon, faint from excitement
and loss of blood.
Jim tried to rouse him, but his every
effort seemed in vain. Then he shout
ed for help, but Just at that moment
the loud bsllowing of the cattle in the
herd drowned his voice.
In few moments the earth seemed
to tremble; the believing of the cattle
grew wilder, fiercer, and the sound was
nearer The rattle of the horns of the
maddened brutes as they clashed to-
gether in the night sounded like dis
tant musketry, and Jim knew that the
herd had stampeded. He tried to drag
Missouri with him out Of the way of
the roaring mass he saw coming, but
failed. He called him and tried to
rouse him, but received no answer or
sign that he was heard.
The cattle were close upon them
when Jim made one more effort to
rouse Missouri. At last he opened
his eyes and looked about him. He
seemed to take in the situation on the
instant, for he quickly sprang to his
feet, clasped Jim around the waist and
held him to his breast, while he reso-
lutely turned his back to the oncoming
herd that rushed upon them the next
moment.
The cattle passed on with rush and
roar. Behind them from the trampled
ground, bruised and bleeding, rose
Missouri, with Jim yet in his arms,
clasped closely, tenderly to his breast,
but the head of the youth was crushed
and trampled out of shape, and his
limbs hung limp and lifeless.
Missouri carried the dead boy to the
camp and placed him upon blanket
on the ground. Then drawing his pis-
toll, he touched it to his head, but be-
fore he had time to fire he fell dead
by the side of Jim.

HOW THEY DO THINGS IN HAYrI.
The Funny Expo rience of a United
States Lumber Dealer in the Repub-
From the Philadelphia Press.

From the PHILADELPHIA Press
WASHINGTON, Dec. "a well-known
Government official, who formerly had
business relations with Hayti, tells this
story of tire way things are run in the little
Republic: " Some years ago was in the
lumber business and had quite an extensive
trade with Hayti On one of my trips to
the island l found that the president
wanted new palace, and after good deal
of dickering l secured the job, which wns
to cost 81, 100000. / Immediately sent for
an architect, and when be arrived we
went to work on the plans. judge of
my surprise when was told that the palace
was to DO constructed entirely of wood and
that the only metal work about it was to be
the roof and cornices, which were to be of
galvanized iron and painted bright colors.
While was wondering how it wond BIO DOS
sible to uso 81 600, 900 in the construction of
such building, the secretary of the treasury
come to me and, through an interpreter.
intimated to me that he should expect q
little COMMISSION on the job, wnica he
modestly put az 100000 Approaching
that this was one of the customs of the
country which it would be well for a for
eigner to comply with, l made no objections
and promised him his commission. Assoc
as he had gone away happy, the minister of
war was ushered in, anu made like init
nation for 100000. Well, 20 make a long
story short, there were so many palms TO
be creased that whel everybody's wants
had been provided for the 81 900 900 for the
construction OF the palace had dwindled
down to quarter OF that sum.
Meanwhile the Haytien gov ernment had
been negotiating a loan of $1,000, 900 in
Paris for internal Improvement" and word
was received that the first installment was
on its way. That fact was sufficient
cause TO incite revolution. There was a
revolution, and my friends the ministers
wore turned out of office, some of them
getting shot in the operation. l saw that
the era of economy and reform had struck
the benighted country, and that the idea
of palace had vanished like u dream. SO
