1t is a very imposing showing that the
bureau of mining statistics makes in its
report of the production Of metals in the
United States for 1887. The aggregate
value of the output of our mines is set
down at $59S,O50 ,845-fgures whose
significance a only be fully grasped by
comparing them with values in other de-
partnents OF production. 1t Is difficult
to estimate the amount OF labor that
went to the making Of this enormous
total. The census of 1880 ranked as
miners ON 2S4. 29S persons O includ-
ing 7,840 oil well operators, and not
counting at all those engaged In the care
of mining machinery. 1t would prob
ably be safe to put at $50, 900 the number
of those who are o directly engaged
In all departments Of mining industry,
and such a calculation may at least serve
as a basis for determining the productive
value of the army of laborers thus en-
ployed. The Epoch.

HINTS FOR THE KITCHEN.

have covers belonging to them. They
can be fitted with tin covers at any tin
store.
1t is we'll to have all jars labeled with the
names of the things contained in them,
hat wrong ones may not be opened by
mistake.
Large cakes pans are best with ahollow
tube in the centre, to admit the heat into
the middle of the cake, that it may be
baked evenly all through.
No kitchen is complete without a pair
Of scales. Without measures and scales
here can be little or no accuracy in the
nicer branches of cookery.
The cloths appropriated to the slor
buckets had best be of a different color
and material from other house cloths,
hat they may be easily distinguished
and not used for any other purposes.

Evils of Chewing Gum.

A physician tells me thatchewing gum
lisa practice In which grown people should
not indulge and which parents should not
tolerate In children. ''Is 1t worse than
chewing tohaccoT' l asked. "a thou
sand tines" was the reply. "a girl
will do enough chewing ON a cents
worth OF gum to m~asticate her food for a
whole week Tie hinges of the jaw are
made for the ordinary work Of an ordi-
nary life and they won't stand any more.
Chewing gum Is something Hike drinking
whisky-one nip calls for another and
one craunch begets another. 1t excites
the nerves which lie about the jaws to q
kind Of perpetual motion, which doesn't
cease until their strength is exhausted.
We haven't been chewing quite long
enough to see its i'll effect, but our
jaws are made like the jawsof other peo-
pie, and We might learn a u and use
full lesson from history. Chicago Tri-

OF these be accepted one from Tho Detroit
Advertiser, in 1855, as editorial writer. His
popularity increasing, he advanced rapidly
In the profession, becoming successfully an
editor of The Cleveland National Democrat,
associate editor Of The Cleveland Plain
Dealer, succeeding the late Arte1nus Ward;
city editor of The Cleveland Leader, and in
1863 city editor Of The Cincinnati Times
He had worked 80 hard In this brief but
brilliant period that his health was impaired
and his eyesight greatly weakened.
He left Journalism In 1864, and entered the
same year into dramatic business, becoming
manager for Lawrence Barrett, then an un-
known and struggling actor, just starting In
his career. His season was successful, and
at the close saw his star on the Dad to pros
perity. During the season be had written
Oh odd article, half essay and half lecture,
which was O mass Of nonsense and laughter,
and with which he was accustomed to amuse
the guests at the dinners and receptions In
which be participated At the suggestion of
his friends be delivered the piece as a lecture
under tho title of american Antiquities at
Brainard hall, Cincinnati, on March Is, 1893
To his surprise the house was crowded, and
Melted him over $500. This proved the turn
ing point in his career. From this time till
1888 he continued upon the lecture platform,
appearing in nearly every town and city Of
the United States, and in every instance
making O financial success. OF those deliv-
cred, the most popular was the one entitled
"Injun Meal" which drew as well at the
end as In the beginning. In 1872 he started
The Fat Contributors Saturday Night, after
wards The Cincinnati Saturday Night, a
humorous literary weekly, and the first of its
class outside of New York city. He con-
tinued In its management until 1888, when
he sold 1t to u syndicate.
During all this period he found sufficient
leisure to be q regular contributor to such
Journals as The Cincinnati Times, Texas
Siftings- New York Weekly, Lelandis CONT
mental, Saturday Night, and to the maya
zines. In 1888 he left America and went
abroad. he passed three years in Europe,
devoting his time to the study Of the Latin
languages and doing but little work of any
sort. This consisted of a series of letters
from a yankee Tourist in Paris" which
were published In The Paris Daily News,
Texns Siftings, and Saturday Night. In
1885 he returned from Europe in perfect
health and bought an interest in Texas Sift-
ings, of which he is now the managing edi-
tor. BE continues his lectures, which are
under the management Of Maj Pond, but
confines his appearances to the eastern and
middle states, editorial duties not permitting
him to go farther away from the metropolis

A Miner Griswold, who enjoys q national
celebrity both as lecturer and humorous
writer, was born in Oneida county, N. Y, in
1896. His family is well known In the
genealogy of Connecticut during the Seven
tenth and Eighteenth centuries, and origin
ally came from England. He received an
excellent education, passing successfully
through the public school, the academy and
Hamilton college. In the last named insti-
tuition he founded the local chapter Of the
Delta Kappa Epsilon society, one of the most
powerful literary secret organizations In the
country. -
From college he went direct to the news
paper Office, obtaining, In 1853, a situation as
reporter upon The Buffalo Republic and
Times, q paper which was afterwards con-
solidated with the present Buffalo Courier.
Its editor, Henry W. Faxon, O noted
wit, poet and journalist of that
time, soon perceived the talent of
The newcomer, and put Griswold at work

GOOD BUTTER.MAKlNG

Butter is finished in the dairy, but not
made there. The stamp of the dairywo-
man puts the gold in market form but
the work must be commenced in the field
or in the feeding stables; and this leads
bat once to the consideration of feeding
for butter. During the early ummer
months, when nature is profuse of favors,
there is little to be done beyond accept
ling her bounty. The tender grasses are
full of the needed nutrition, and they af-
ford the constant supply of moisture,
without which the secretion of milk is
greatly lessened. Yet, at this season, as
well as others, a pure supply of water is
absolutely necessary. 1t does o meet
full of surface drainage in the pasture, or
a frog pond. While 1t is not probable
that the tadpoles and wrigglers, some
times found in city milk, have been drunk
exist in such pools that are hardly elm
mated or rendered entirely harmless by
the wonderful milk secretions of the ami
NAL. The cattle should drink from SPRING
fed boxes and as often as these, under
the hot sun, are seen to produce green
growth or floating scum, a pail of coarse
salt may be put in, and the current
checked until the fresh water growths
are killed the salt water is then drawn
off, and for a long time the trough will
remain pure and the water bright

WHY CHILDREN's TEETH DECAY.

The primary cause of decay in a child's
teeth antedates its birth. The mother,
indifferent, or more probably ignorant, of
the demands made upon her system for
lime and bone-structure material, has not
given the proper care and attention to
the food she ate, and has failed to supply
the demand. Thus she has robbed the
child of its rightful inheritance, and
starved her own teeth at the same time.
There is no article of food more gener-
ally used than wheat -four in its various
forms of bread and pastry; yet chemical
analysis proves that by its use mankind
loses from two-thirds to four-ffths of
the elements that enter into teeth and
bone structure. This statement should
be written in FURNISHED letters in every
kitchen in every land. a dentist of ex-
cellent reputation says that he filled some
IA cavities in the teeth of his first-born
child by the time he was four years old.
He put his family upon the use of the
whole grains, and the next child had no
retarded dentition, and not a decayed
booth up to the same age. Wheat meal,
oatmeal, cornmeal, beans, vegetables,
lean meats, milk, eggs, butter and fruit are
considered good for mother and child.
Variety of food is known to be favorable
to health, and food supplying starch, SUI
gar and oil is a necessary adjunct; but in
the superfine flour, that makes bread and
cake so beautiful to the sight and delight
full to the taste, turks an insidious foe of
the dental organs. The new patent roller
process clans, however, to have overcome
the evil to a certain extent.
Cleanliness is an important factor with
temporary as we'll as permanent teeth.
After drinking milk, even, it is well to
rinse the mouth in tepld water. The
mouth is a warm place, and food left
clinging to the teeth decomposes or sours
quickly. Make a friend of the %toothpick
as we'll as toothbrush; some authorities
consider it even more important.-l A

The British Navy.

While the Americans lave ''gone through

now doing some excellent work, the British
are 'enjoyiug" one of their regular panics
about invasion, and this timo apparently
with some reason. They have lately com
pleted the most stupendous experiment ever
tried In naval m~aneuvers-a sham hattlo on
a scale involving almost the entire circuit of
the British isles. They divided their entire
navy into two squadrons, one for attack, the
other for defense, and arranged for rules by
which any vessel should be considered as dis
ahled. Thus, a vessel within range of sighted
guns for a given length Of time should be
considered as disabled. Torpedoes were used
