What Made the Paper Late.

sour paper is two days late this
week" writes a Nebraska editor,
lowing to an accident to our press.
When we started in to run the
edition on Wednesday night, as
usual, one of the guy ropes gave
way, allowing the forward glider
huke to fall and break as it struck
the hunkerhopper. This, of course,
as any one who knows anything
about a press will readily under
stand, left the gang plank with only
the iip-fap to support it, which
also dropped and broke off the
wapperchoke. This loosened the
fiuking between the ramrod and
fibbersnatcher, which also caused
trouble. The report that the trouble
was caused by over indulgence in
intoxicating stimulants by ourself
is a tissue of falsehoods, the peeled
appearance of our right eye being
caused by our going into the hatch
way of the press in our anxiety to
start it, and pulling the coupling
pin after the slapbung was broken,
which caused the dingus to rise up
and welt US in the optic. We ex-
pect a brand new gilderauke on
this afternoons train"

Old, But W orth Repeating.

1t may not be generally known,
says the Northwest Magazine, that
when exposed to severe cold, a feel
ing of warmth is readily created by
repeatedly filling the lungs to their
utmost extent in the following man
ner: Throw the shoulders we'll back
and hold the head we'll up. Initiate
the lungs slowly, the air entering
entirely through the nose. When
the lungs are completely filled. hold
the breath for ten seconds or longer,
and then expire it quickly through
the mouth. After repeating the ex-
ercise while one is chilly, feeling
of warmth will be felt over the en-
tire body. even in the feet and
hands. 1t is worth while praeticing
this exercise many times each day,
and especially when in the open
air. If the habit ever becomes uni
versal, then consumption and many
other diseases will rarely be heard
of. Not only while praciicing the
breathing exercise must the cloth
ing be loose over the chest, but be-
ginners will do well to remember,
in having their clothing fitted, to
allow for the chests permanent ex-
pansion one, two or even three
inches, which will follow"

It was Elder Buzzle who called
oR a wsrthy deacon to open the

prised when the good man began

tinued his prayer to a great length
and concluded as follows:

How They Carried a Million.

Two men walked rapidly down
Wall street yesterday afternoon and
entered one OF the prominent bank
ing institutions. They were sturdy,
heavy set men. One carried a small
black satchel. Both kept their eyes
roaming from side to side. l fol-
lowed them into the bank. The
man with the satchel sat down,
dropping the bag carefully on the
floor. The other went into the re-
ceiving teller's inclosure, reached
down into his breast pocket and
extracted package of bills. These
were hastily counted, and the two
strangers left. The teller jammed
the bills into an envelope, sealed it
and pitched it into a safe, afterward
closing the door in perfuuctory
manner. The entire transaction oc-
cupied less than two minutes. Then
the teller turned to me and said:
"How much do you think was in
that package?"
"Why, about $500"
"Yes, and little more. 1t con-
tanned one million four hundred
and forty-odd thousand"
"You don't mean it ~
"Yes," he said, showing his mem
oranda. "You see, it's nearly al
in $4,000 bills. There is not great
danger in carrying notes of that
denomination, because except hers
in New York they are so seldom
used that suspicion would at once
be directed toward any one who
attempted to negotiate them"
"One thing stll puzzles me. Wha
did the messenger have in his sat
chel?"
Nothing but a half-brick. TIT

Coffee as q Stimulant

1t is asserted by men of high pro-
fessional ability that when the sys-
tenn needs stimulant nothing equals
a cup of fresh coffee, says a writer
in the Epicure. Those who desire
to rescue the drunkard from his
cups will find no better substitute
for spirits than strong, new-made
coffee, without milk or sugar. Two
ounces of coffee, or one-eighth of q
pound to one pint of boiling water
makes a first-class beverage, but the
water must be boiling, not merely
hot. Bitterness comes from boiling
it too long.
If the coffee required for break
fast be put in a graniteized kettle
over night and pint of cold water
poured over it, it can be heated to
the boiling point and then set back
to prevent further ebullition, when
it will be found that while its
strength is extracted its delicate
aroma is preserved. As our country
consumes nearly ten pounds of cof-
fee per capita it is pity not to
have it made in the best manner.
1t is asserted by those who have
tried it that malaria and epidemics
are avoided by those who drink a
cup of hot coffee before venturing
into the morning air. Burned on
hot Goals it is disinfeetant for q
sick room. By some of our best
physicians it is considered a spe-
citic in typhoid fever.

Where the Birds Summer.

Uutil the acquisition of Alaska
by the United States, it was a won
der where certain wild fowl went
when they migrated from temper
ates climes on the approach of
summer, as we'll as snow birds and
other small species of the ieathered

their habitat in summer was the

region. A reporter lately inter

like the wind, they do not know

north shore of Norton sound, is the
breeding place of these fowls.

she never found the lamb because
she did not advertise. And Mary
