A ranchman's work is, of course, free
from much of the saneness attendant
upon that of mere cowboy. One day he
will ride out with his men among the
cattle, or after strayed horses; the next
he may hunt, so as to keep the ranch in
meat; then he can make the tour of his
outlying camps; or, again, may join one
of the round ups for a week or two, per-
haps keeping with it the entire time it is
working On occasions he will have
good deal of spare time on his hands,
which, if he chooses, he can spend in read
ing or writing If he cares for books,
there will be many worn volume in the
primitive little sitting room, with its log
walls and huge fire place; but, after a
hard days work, a man will not read
much, but will rock to and fro in the
Pickering freight, talking sleepily over
his success in the days chase and the
difficulty he has had with the cattle; or
else may simply lie stretched at full
length on the elk hides and wolf skins in
front of the hearthstone, listening in
drowsy silence to the roar and crackle of
the blazing logs and to the moaning of the
wind outside.-Theodore Roosevelt in The
Century.
A Foreign Cfty's Sensation.
A lady entered one of the prominent
drug stores of Munich, Bavaria, the other
day, desiring a cure for a cold. The
clerk, man of long experience, reached
into one of the chests for popular rem
edy which had been widely purchased
during the severe weather of the past
month, and handed it to the woman, who
went on her way rejoicing. A few min
utes later he opened the chest again, and,
to his horror, found it filled with poison
which had been placed there temporarily
owing to the lack. of labels. The police
were Immediately notified, but failed to
find the lady in question.
Criers were then sent out who ran about
the city proclaiming the incident and tell
ing all who bad. purchased the popular

Cheap Living in Hamburg.

The common people of Hamburg rarely
eat meat, it is so dear. Soups are made
in great variety, including one from beer.
The poorer kinds of fish only are cheap.
Economy is not confined to the poorer

allowed for the week their loaf of bread
and quarter or half pound of butter or
lard, and are only permitted to use GER
tain quantity at each meal, the rest being
locked up with the family provisions till

Every teacher in Mississippi should
own = library. 1t is impossible for
teachers to keep posted without read
ing. Books are SO cheap that any
body can get all that are needed for
every day suggestions. 1t is true
that the teacher who attempts to
copy the methods that have crystal
lied into book form will fail to ac.
complish the high aims of the pro.
fession, but it is also true that these
methods will conduce greatly to the
development Of original thought and
investigation. Reading Of itself can
not perfect one In teaching, but it
can be made the means by which the
capacity to instruct can be evolved
and cultivated. A few good book on
subjects Of au educational character
will be Of incalculable value to the
earnest teacher searching for the
tight Of methOds.-Selected.

The newspaper is one of the fore
most wonders of the modern world
The family that does not take and
carefully read at least one newspaper
Is not living In the ninstesnth
century. A man who does not read
a newspaper is placed at painful
disadvantage in all conversation
with intellingent friends. A woman
who does not read newspaper may
be condemned to ths disagreeable
necessity of always talking about her
neighhors. A growing boy or girl
who does not read a newspaper will
have no just views of that great and
wonderful world in which they are
to take place.--Ledger.

The PAn0la Cllaty Alliance, pl
Tsxas, has declared y boycott against
the Atlanta Constitution, on account
of the inimical position that journal
has for some time past maintained
toward the Alliance, The articles in
question, at least such rs have come
under our observation, We're not ed
itarials, hut communications from
members Of the staff Of cnrrespon-
dents. The Constitution, AZ IL we'll
known, ia Y high-taritf paper, while
tbs Alliance, SO far as our knowledge
Ut II extends, 10 very nearly free
trade on this point. This may be the
main aud real CAUSE Of difference,
Old Joe. Rrnwn, who comes very
carrying the state Of Georgia in his
vest pocket, is supposed to be the
power behind the throne, that shapes
the policy Of the Constitution. Mr..
Brown is very decidedly a high-taritf
man, because he has millions Of dol
lars invested In manufactures. It
ia very natural then that the Alli-
anoe should bs looked upon with fear
aud suspicion by such an individual
~ Mr.. Brown, md that his views
and wishes should find expression In
his newspaper, il also to be expected.
1t is also perfectly natural that the
Alliance should resent any unwar-
raated attacks made upon it, indi.
vidually or collectively, no matter
from what source they may emsnate.
We regard the Atlanta Constitution
w. one of the very best newspapers
published IN America. There can be
no question about that; but on the
tariff, which ID the only vital issue,
vt this time between the two great
parties, the Constitution is in line
with the New York Tribune, the
Chicago Inter Ocean, the StLouis
Globe Democrat, and on this partic-
nlar issue, IL just as obnoxious to the
farmers OF this country, as either of
the journals above named, or for
that matter any Republican paper,
published, no matter where. Speak
Ing Of joe. Browns unlimited In
fluence, IN the State of Georgia, re-
minds US of an incident that we heard
Bill Arp mention. It seems that
old Joe. Brown has son, who bears
the name of his illustrious sire, but
rs q matter of discrimination, is
known in Atlanta as "Young Joe.'
He IL about the same age az Henry
Grady, the distinguished editor and |
part proprietor of the Constitution.
Young Joe's principal claim to dis
tinction seems to be founded on the
fact he is the son of his father, and
on this he presumes considerably.
Grady and young Joe are mortal EN-
emies and never agree on anything.
Bill Arp says he was in the sanctunl
of the Constitution one day, when
Grady came in in a very ugly humor.
Some one asked him what was the
matter, and he replied by saying
that twas something that blank
blanked fool, young Joe Brown had
done, and wenton with his abuse and
finally wound up by saying he
wouldn't stand it any longer, but he
was going to give young Joe -
good thraslling, "When are you GO
ing to do it Henry?" queried Bill
Arp. "Oh! Just as soon as old Joe
Brown dies" was the answer. Well,
old Joe has not died yet and young
Joe has therefore escaped so far.

Shoes Have Kicked Out Boots.

"The evolution of the shoe" said
Bryan McSwyny to New York jSua
man, furnishes an interesting subject
for consideration. Sixteen years ago you
couldn't find shoe in the stores of this
city. The shops were filled with boots.
Now you cannot get a boot except
through a special order. The shoe was
brought into general use by the retail
traders. Next the manufacturers took
to manufacturing shoes until the boot
has been entirely superseded by the shoe.
The first style Of shoe constructed was
the congress gaiter. 1t was ludicrous to
witness the attempts of those who had
been accustomed to wearing boots when
they tried to put on congress gaiter.
Gradually the congress galter was super
seded by the button and the laced shoe.
The latter is more generally worn at the
present day than any o5her style. When
O'Leary, the pedestrian, walked his
famous match with Weston at Chicago,
he wore boots, and as a consequence he
lost four toe nails. But 10 his next con-
test he wore laced shoes, and when the
week was ended his feet were in prime

that bootlegs helped to keep the lower
limbs warm, and that they also assisted
in supporting the ankles These talla-
cies, however, were disproved when the
shoe came into general use. 1t was
found that all that was necessary to in
sure warmth was to keep the ankle warm
In order to achieve this result the gaiter
tops were invented But later experience
has demonstrated that even these were
unnecessary in order to obtain this re-
suit. No." continued Mr.. McSwyny, as
he looked around at his well-filled
shelves, 81 have $780, 900 worth of shoes
on hand, but not one pair of leather
boots. The only calls have for boots
come from those who are going into the
wids of Texas or some new country, or
from some old-fashioned man to whom
boots are a necessity from early habit"
