THE COWBOY IN THE EAST.

The Indians he slashed and gashed and slapped
and slew and slaughtered
He'd boot and shoot the bowling Ute, who
squealed and reeed and tottered;
He'd bang and whang at every gang OF roober
and marauder,
The horse thief strung on the limb he hung, and
thus kept law and order.
In every fight big luck he struck and never met
disaster;
In glen and den, mid brutes and men, he never
found master;
No cash or slash could ever dash against his
front terrific,
No foe could stand his red right hand that
slugged so scientific.
The rattlesnake he punched and crunched; he
overthrow the bison;
He sought and fought an awful lot each beast
meath the horizon.
No scar or jar could ever mar, no harm could
ever get him,
But want of breath and speedy death o'ertook
all things that met him!
But to the town he came for fame, he moved
into the city;
He fell, ah we'll 1 grieve to tell-the pity oh,
the pity
He'd hit and split his head, and get bruise at
every crossing,
And the herdic man and the moving van his
mangled form was tossing.
Whenever he crossed the street his feet with
wheels and things were tangled;
And his frame became a bloody shame, all
manned and mussed and mangled;
He'd fall and sprawl right thro it all, his bones
all disocated
With most of his face stuck on the wrong place,
and both of his feet mismated.
And soon it came to pass the gas, the big gas
house exploded
And he-ah was hit, you see, he didn't
know it was loaded.
Q, nv! in the Sky he shot as high as war con-
tractors bounties
And his scattered fl anne was found, they claim,
in nineteen different counties!

Irrigation in Wyoming.

Irrigation is carried out on an extern
sive scale in Wyoming Territory.
Something like 1000, 600 acres of land
have recently been reclaimed and rem
dered fit for cultivation by means of
ordinary bitches, and official reports
estimate that not less than 100000
acres more can be reclaimed in the
same way. 1t is also shown that not
less than 100000 acres in addition
can be redeemed by extraordinary
means-that is. by a system of storage.
This would give Wyoming about 49,
100000 acres that might be devoted to
agriculture, aside from the much
larger body of grazing land. There
are also supposed to be 100000 acres
of coal lands. Congress at it's last
session appropriated $3.50, 900 to defray
the cost of surveys for storage reser-
voirs. Chicago Times.

A Philosophical View of 1t.

"Well," said Uncle Hiram, who used
to belong to singing club in his early
days, 81 never heard a woman play
like that woman we heard in Boston
that night. 1t was just awful. My
ears ache even now.
"Yes," replied his nephew, "she was
rather loud, that's fact. But, then,
her execution -"
George, exclaimed the old gentle
man, as he seized his nephew by the
arm, 'you don't mean to say that they
went so far as that? Well. 'tisn't for
ME to Judge them. l only heard her
once. 1t seems terrible-a woman,
too. But then they had to listen to
her every night And they won't have
to hear her again. Perhaps it's all for

1.-THE FORTY WlNKS."
Advantages to BE Derived by Old People
from an Afternoon Nap.

Sleep is closely connected with the
question of diet. Good sleeping" was
noticeable feature in the large ma
jority of DR.. Humphreys cases. Sound,
refreshing sleep is of the utmost conse-
quence to the health of the body, and
no substitute can be found for it as q
restorer of vital energy. Sleeplessness
is, however, often a source of great
trouble to elderly people, and one
which is not easily relieved. Narcotic
remedies are generally mischievous;
their first effects may be pleasant, but
the. habit of depending upon them
Rapidly grows until they become indis-
pensable. When this stage has been
reached, the sufferer is in q far worse
plight than before. In all cases the
endeavor should be made to discover
whether the sleeplessness be due to
any removable cause, such as indi-
gestion, cold, want of exercise, and the
like. In regard to sleeping in the day,
time. there is something to be said both
for and against that practice. A nap
of shorty winks'' in the afternoon en-
ables many aged people to get through
the rest of the day in comfort, whereas
theyf feel tired and weak when deprived
of this refreshment. If they rest we'll
at night there can be no objection to
the afternoon nap. but if sleeplessness
be complained of, the latter should be
discontinued for time. Most old
people find that a reclining posture,
with the feet and legs raised, is better
than the horizontal position for the
afternoon nap. Digestion proceeds
with more ease than when the body is
recnmbent.- Robson Ro ose, in Fort
nightly Review.

QUEER MEDICAL OMENS.
Superstitions Prevailing in Various Parts
of the Old World.


OF all superstitions, medical ones are
perhaps those endowed with most
vitality. People of all times and all
ages, including even those of the
nineteenth century, of which we are
all so proud. have always attached too
much Importance to the opinions OF
their medicine men. But the middle
ages was the time for the currency OF
pure and unauthorized medical super
stitions. The medieval doctor must
have added another terror to death as
mis- advice certainly increased its
probability in illness. To wear dead
mans bones was thought an excellent
specific. To eat the first Easter daisy
that could be found, and receive the
benediction in three different parishes
on the same Sunday, was still a more
potent remedy. To steal cabbage
from neighbours garden and hang it
on a hook to dry was another cure,
and one certainly within the means of
the poorest patient. The efficacy of
this remedy was possibly to be found
in the theft. People who hung up
horseshoes for luck may perhapr be
tempted to try it on their friends
when quinine and bark have been
found useless. A toad choked to
death on the eve of st. Johns day
was possessed of even still more
svirbue.> When Awe recall the iagre-
dients of the witches caldron in MAC
BETH we are afforded, as it were, a
bird's-eye view of the pharmacopoeia
OF the contemporaries of the conqueror
The water in a toad's brain was deemed
a most efficient remedy in illness about
the same period. There were cures
for mental failings as well as bodily
affections. To stick pins in a dead
mans shoes, or to carry about in the
pocket VOLTS tooth or eye, or, if it
were handy, to ride upon a boar, were
all-especially the latter--cures for
cowardice. We sometimes consult
doctors about our nerves now Per-
haps it is the name and not disease
that is changed. The modern prac-
titioner who should advise Il nervous
patient to take equestrian exercise on
q bare-baclled boar would possibly OBJ
tain notoriety, if not patients, to-day
A sovereign cure for toothache was to
apply dead mans tooth to the suffer-
ing jaw of the living. For epilepsy
the remedies were many and peculiar.
One was to wear a medal bearing the
names of Gaspar, Melchior and Bal.
thasar. NJ. Challamel informs us
that some faith is still attached in
rural France to the extraordinary
remedies we have mentioned, and even
in London and Paris, in educated cir
cles, a good many medical supel.titions
are still extant.-Journal of American
Folklore.

ILLICIT TRADERS.

individuals Who Are IA Source of Great
Trouble to Uncle Sans Soldiers.
One of the purposes for which troops,
under express provisions of the Re-
vised Statutes, may be employed in the
Indian Territory is the arrest of Illicit
traders. In that Territory, and in all
reservations set apart for the use OF
the red men, the Government guaran-
tees that whites shall be kept away.
Exceptions are made, of course, under
the permits of the Indian Bureau,
through its agents, and soldiers are
also authorized to perform certain du-
ties there. But the chances of profit
carry into the Indian country traders
who have no authority to enter it. The
tribes themselves in some instances en-
courage their presence, especially
when they have alcoholic liquor among
their goods. the selling of which to In
dams is forbidden any way, and they
are the more tempted to risk arrest
and punishment from the good prices
they can get. When their presence be-
comes known, troops are sometimes
summoned by the agents to scout for
and arrest the Offenders.
Rather striking instance Of the
trouble occasionally caused by illicit
traders occurred among the Navajos of
New Mexico Il year or two ago. A
squad of soldiers, starting from Fort
Wingate to arrest whisky peddlers, was
confronted by large force of Navaj0s,
who declared that the men should not
be taken away. The sergeant in charge
of the squad, finding his party greatly
outnumbered, was compelled to pro-
coed to Fort Defiance, where the Indian
agent communicated with Fort Win
gate, and a troop of cavalry was sent
out. For time an outbreak of this
powerful tribe was feared from the
mischief thus stirred up by the whisky
sellers. More recent testimony to the
connection between the suppression of
illicit traders and the well-beirg of the
Indians is given in this extract from
the last annual report of Mr. Carroll
H. Potter, acting agent for the Osages
in the Indian Territory: "There has
been no improvement in the condition
of the Usage Indians during the last
year. These people are not sufficiently
Industrious to control in the right direc-
ton the amount of money they get. In
consequence large share is spent for
contraband articles, which it seems
very easy for them to procure along
the State line and from peddlers on the
reservation. The latter class the In
dams will protect in every possible
way. The traffic in whisky by ped
dlers on the reservation is, in my
opinion, alarmingly on the increase"

Another Good Boy.

A Detroit grocer was the other day
hungrily waiting for his clerk to return
from dinner and gave him chance at
his own noondav meal, when a boy
came into the store with basket in his
hand and said:
I seed boy grab up this ere basket
from the door and run, and I run after
him and made him give 1t up
My lad, you are an honest boy
Yes, sir
And you like good boy,
'Yes, sir
And good boys should always be en-
couraged. In box in the back room
there are eight dozen eggs. You may
take them home to your mother and
keep the basket
The grocer had been saving the eggs
for some days and weeks to reward
some one. In rewarding good boy he
also got eight dozen bad eggs carried
out of the neighborhood free of cost.
and he chucklel like chuck as he
walked homeward.
The afternoon waned, night came
and went, and once more the grocer
went to dinner. When he returned he
was picking his teeth and wearing a
complaisant smile. His eye caught
basket of eight dozen eggs as he entered
the store, and he queried;
Been buying some eggs?'
Yes. got hold Of those from farmer
boy, replied the clerk.
"A lame boy with blue cap on ?
Yes
1.-TWO front teeth out?
'Yes.'
The grocer sat down and examined
the eggs. The shells had been washed
clean, and they were the same eggs that
boy had lugged home the day before.
