People in the east suppose COWBOYS
to be rough, uncouth creatures, con-
tinuously in a braWl when not on the
range. Texas, however, has one,
named Logan Mulhall, who is only
month or two over six years old and
herd owner. in the Cheyenne nation.
He is the youngest cowboy in the
world. The boy owns over a hundred
head of cattle, has his own brand,
which is duly registered, and he does
fully as much of his own work as any
boy of six has done, even in the west,
This juvenile patriarch is son of
Zach MulhaH, well known through the
cow country, and his father is firmly
convinced that such another young
prodigy has not yet appeared in the
grazing lands. The young gentleman.
was formally put in possession of
herd some months ago. He has had
made for himself little Winchester
rifle and special revolver, with both
of which arms he is said to be very
expert. The boy has his own bunch
of horses and hires his own help, Of
course under the uperintendence Of
his father, and during the present
spring he has every day ridden a line
OF more than three miles about his
herd. Thisis a development of young
America which the herders in Texas
do not believe can be equa1ed in any
other part of the country. The boy
is worth about 81 200 in his own
right, and his profits will not be less
than $500 a year, which is more than
falls to the lot of the average six year
old. Helena INDEPENDENT.

own. and that she conforms her con-

"There are eleven and onc-half tons
of postage stamps sold at the New York
postoffice every year," remarked a
manufacturing chemist to New York
Mail and Express reporter. ''Now
guess how many tons of pills are made
in this country every year.
"What have postage stamps to do
with pillsl'
"Nothing whatever, save that each is
useful in its way. Only cited the post
office vcnd to give you an idea of the
great weight of small things when con-
sidcred in bulk. Give it upl WE'LL as
nearly as can be figured, they will
amount to over So tons year. A ton a
week is a fair estimate. In England
alone there are 9, 900, 900, 900 consumed
every year. That reduced to tons would
mako about 40. How many are used
in other countries it would be hard to
say, but the total estimate would not
come far from 45O tons. Say 500 tons
are used a year by the entire world.
The habit of pill-taking is ancient. Il
is the most convenient form for carry
ing and taking, and is the most popular.
Formerly they were made by hand.
Now they are produced by machinery.

make 1,OOO,O 900 pills a week. Biz

The Public's Fickle Fancy.

The losses entailcd upon manufac-
turers by changes in fashion, especially
sudden ones, are often enormous. "ne
public know OF the fact Il a general
way, but they little appreciate the en-
tent of the injury that may be oc.
casioned by the whim which suddenly
tatoos certain style and takes to new
one. A good deal of what is called
enterprise and success in trade is merely
good luck in experimenting with the
popular fancy. An upholsterer told
me little while ago that in one line
Of furniture alone he lost $14, 900 by
the fckleness Of public favor. He had
just turned out factory full of "Qucen
Anne" or "ebony" goods Il forget the
exact style), when, presto, they went
out of fashion. He couldn't keep his
warerooms numbered up with the things.
He had to be abreast of the times with
new stock. So he sent the stuff o the
auction shop, and what had cost him
SEQ, 900 brought him $4,000. He had
to charge it to profit and loss and try
again. might mention here what was
told me about the withdrawal Of
Messrs. A. A. Low & Co. from
business, as to which there was con-
siderable misunderstanding. 1t seems
that the trade in the fuer and estab-
lished brands of tea in which tho more
! ! reputable firms of the country had been
dealing had been checked, if not de-
pressed, by overwhelming importations
Of the coarse Annoy varieties. The
Messrs. Low & Co., endeavored to
countcract this influon CO by purchasing
and controlling the Annoy tea them
selves, intending to hold it off the mar
ket and to distribute it gradually to
such dealers as are usually content with
an inferior article. Their expectation
was that the popular taste for the
choice teas would assert itself and
make distinctive markets. The scheme
was an intelligent one, but its realiza-
tion, it was found, would require more
time and patience than they were pre-
pared to devote to it. They according
ly relinquished it and transferred their
entire business at the same time to q
firm of younger capitalists. = brooklyn

Getting Servants in China.

The ways of the housekceper are In
deed made smooth for her In China, in
deed so smooth that, unless she has
children to care ior, her time often
hangs very heavily on her hands. The
interior management and care OF the
house Is entirely entrusted to the ma
jordomo or butler, called the "Kwan
Su," or chief OF the bottles. But moro
frequently he is simply called "boy."
Bells not being much used in China, you
often hear the cry of "Bhooyl' coming
from the ncighboring house. Do not
be alarmed. 1t is probably only
madame calling for her sedan chair, or
the master who wants his brandy and
soda, the standard drink Of foreigners
all over tho far East.
In taking house in China the first
thing is to get good boy, the second
to have him secured" The securing
consists in getting some rep
utable or wealthy Chinamau to agree
that if the boy runs away with any
thing he will either produce him or pay
the amount of the loss. The servants in
the East are all of the male sex, aud
women are never employed about a
house except where there are children,
or where lady has an amah as her per-
sonal attendant. The amahs duties lie
in keeping her mistress's room in order,
dressing her hair, in short, performing
the duties of a ladys maid, and, If
there reyoung children, in looking af-
ter them.
In most cases there is one amah to
each child. She receives, according to
qualifications, from S. to $40 month
as wages, out of which she feeds her
self, her wages in fact being higher
than those of the other servants. Fc-
male servants are in China as every
where else, source of internal discord,
as they are constantly carrying tales or
making mischief, and lady who can
do without an amah thereby gets rid of
almost the only vexation in her house
keeping life. Good Housekeeping.
