Calayeras Canyon, Texas.
DEAR SIR: In regard to the people of
New York being addicted to sociability
some of them are more so than others.
When first came TO New York, some
years ago, although my boarding-house
was not more than twenty minutes
walk from the houses Billy Vanderbilt,
"Wally" Astor, Jay Gould, ct al, none
Of them called on me for six months. /
don't know how much longer they would
not have called on me, for ! became dis
gusted and moved out of the neighbor
hood. have given them the cold
shoulder ever since. At the same time,
there we're other persons in that vicinity
Nho did not put so many frills. A nice
gentleman, who was letter carrier,
used 10 call every day, and the janitor

have come under my observation and
thus enable Mr.. McSniitcs and others
who may contemplate visiting New
York to form their own conclusions.
II. after reading the following reply
to McSnifter's inquiry, they see proper
to come to New York, and find their
surroundings not what they expected,
there will be no moral or legal obliga-
tions on my part to supply them with
railroad passes to return to their native
lairs. This may appear to be cold and
unfecling on my part, but will not be
misunderstood by those who have had
any experience in working New York
railroad magnate for a pass.

A Cure for Saneaking Shears

Standing in n prominent hardware
store the other day, the Stroller watched
a lady purchase Il pair of shears. She
decided upon the size and style desired
and tried four or five pairs, rejecting
them all because, she said, they
"squeaked." But she was finally suited
with a pair that didn't squeak, " and
went her way. As the accepted pair
happened to be one of those first re-
fused, the salesman was asked how the
metamorphosis was effected. "That, :"
said he, sis one of the very simplest Sc
crets of the man who sells shears. OBJ
serve this" He picked up a pair of
scissors which "squeaked" woefully when
worked. Then he ran his forefnger
thoughtfully down the side of his nose
and rubbed them over the scissors, which
came together as gently and noiselessly as
though saturated with oil.
"That's all there is of it." he said.
"You see, there is always a little oil col
lected in the corners on the outside of
your nostrils. Scrub your nose as hard
as you Will, the oil will be back there in
five minutes. SO when customer comes
in, tries pair of shears and complains
that they squeak and come together hard,
we can oil them up and make them run
smooth without exciting suspicion. What
was the oil put on the nose for2 To help
the hardware man out, | suppose. But
then what l have told you is good
thing for all nervous people who don't
like squeaky shears to know Chieags

.RObbing Peter to Pay Panl.o

This expression arose thus. On De-
cember II, 1910, the abbey church of st.
Peter, Westminster, was advanced to the
dignity of a cathedral by letters; but ten
years later it was joined to tie diocese Of
London again, and many of its estates ap-
propriated TO the repairs of st. Paul's
Cathedral. One hundred years later, in
1910, we find in "OutlaudisA Proverbs, +"
selected by George Herbert, priest and
poet of classic renown, the subject Of one
of "Walton's Lives" the proverb altered
and set forth as follows: "Give not st.
Peter so much, to leave st. Paul moth
ing" This proverb is quoted by Francis
Ra5clais early in the Sixteenth century.
Upon the death of William Pitt, Earl Of
Chatham, in 177S, each OF the metropoli-
tan cemeteries laid claim TO the honor of
burial. The city of London argued that
so great a statesman as William Pitt
should be buried in st. Pauls, while
Parliament took the ground this, the dust
Of so great a man as he should come near
to the dust Of kings, and that not to bury
him in Westminster Abbey would again
be ''robbing St. Peter to pay ST. Paul. "

Manufacture of Glass Ewes.

A German paper makes the astounding
statement that more than 1000, 600 glass
eyes are made every year in Germany and
Switzerland, while one French house
manufactures 800, 600 of them annually.
The pupil is made Of colored glass, and
sometimes red lines are painted on the
inner surface to simulate the veins. The
largest number of these eyes are bought
10y laborers, who are exposed to fire and
are consequently liable to lose an eye.
An artificial eye rarely lasts more than
five years, as the secretious of the lachry.
mai glands cloud the surface of the glass.
DR.. Magnus has pointed out that the eX.
preston of the eyes is almost solely Cue
TO the movement of the upper oyeIids,
and this is the reason that we may see a
man with glass eye hundred times oe-
fore we discover his iuirmity.

A Curiosity in Fign-es.

Ihaye an estimable friend who is con-
staItly bothering his brains over every
suggestion of a puzzle. 1t is his fad ,
and he can't help it. He met me yes
terday, and insisted on my hearing the
latest discovery, as he called it. "Just
put down the figures of your age and
multiply that by two. Then add to it
376S. After that result is mad, add to
it twelve, and then divide by two. Now,
when you've done this little sum, sub
tract from the result obtained the mum
Der of your years on this mundane sphere

CANNED MILK COMMENDED.

l am now using canned milk-put up
some weeks ago, against the time of need,
when cows would be dry-and as the
ladies say of many things, ''it is just love-
ly." 1 suppose it is purified, as water
is, by bringing it to the boiling point.
Milk condensed has long been Il standard
article of commerce, but l do not recol-
lect of its being canned in its natural
condition. / wonder at this, as it is
thus in a much more desirable shape to
be used for many purposes, and nothing
is less trouble to preserve in this way.
think if l live to be hundred years
old / shall continue to use milk, perhaps
more and more, as my principal food.
With some it does not agree, but the
stomach is capable of education as well
as the brain, and l advise all invalids,
especially dyspeptics, to try different
methods and accustom themselves to its
use, if possible. As a single article, it is
the best known, if not the only known
perfect food. To those who would like
to use it, but whose stomachs rebel,
suggest that they make it the principal
constituent of rice puddings, and use it
as they can with oat and corn meal, etc. =,
gradually increasing the quantity accord
ing to circumstances. | think a babe
was never known to reject milk, there
fore it is natural food, if not natural
medicine, and those to whom it is not
acceptable in late years are abnormal in
some way.-Ne0 YorR Tribune.

Scales That Weigh a Hair.

The fine gold weighing scales made
in Philadelphia and intended for the
mint at New Orleans few years ago, arc
maryels Of mechanical invention and ex-
pert workmanship. The larger of the
two pair has capacity of 10,00 ounces
troy, or about 6S6 pounds ayoirdupois,
and when loaded to its full weighing ca
pacity will indicate the variation of the
one-thousandth of an ounce. The other
and smaller pair are intended for lighter
work. All its bearings are of the finest
agate, which nave been ground with re-
markable precision. This instrument is
believed to be the most delicate in the
world. It will give precise weight of a
human hair, and it susceptible to the
slightest atmospheric changes. Louis

Chicago is getting plenty of advice
nowadays. Here is a suggestion from
the San Francisco Examiner: "If the
Chicago people want striking feature,
why not lay out twenty-acre park as a
model OF the American Continent, with
mountains in relief and real rivers, real
steamboats, and real railroads2 Such
model would give a better idea of the
achievements of Columbus and of the re-
lations of the American nations than any
number OF maps. On scale of three
inches to the mile, Chicago would be
eight feet long, which would give ample
room TO represent the Auditorium, the
Exhibition buildings and the principal
pig-sticking emporiums in their correct
proportions

The influenza epidemic in Holland was
due to the census being taken, according
TO pious baker at the Hague. He re-
fused TO ill up the census paper, declar-
ing that numbering the people was GER
tain to attract Divine wrath, and that
the epidemic resembled the visitation of
the plague Of old, which slew 10000
persons, when David numbered Israel.
Tho baker forgets that the census was
not taken in other countries which were
still worse affected by the influenza.

The Argentine Republic has developed
Il remarkable degree of elasticity under
adverse financial circumstances. The
Washington Stqr declares that ''the
Government financiering has been wretch
edly bad, speculation has run riot under
the stimulus of imitation, and yet, al
though this has been going on for years,
there has not yet been pronounced
panic, unless it has occurred since the
latest advices were received. The paper
money has been sinking in spite of all
the attempts that have been made to
bolster it up, and yet the point Of COM
plete collapse had not been reached. The
bottom had dropped out Of speculation,
however, and the country seemed to have
entered INTO such a period of depression
as we had from 1873 to 1873 without ex.
periencing any such panic as we did in
1873"

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
THE loss OF BUTTONS.

The loss of buttons is source OF an.
noyance to every woman. They are
ironed off garments, washed off and
pulled off. A lady gives two hints which
will obviate this continued shedding of
buttons. She says: "When you begin,
before you lay the button on the cloth,
put the'thread through so that the knot
will be on the right side. That leaves it
under the button, and prevents it from
being ironed or worn away, and thus be
ginning the loosening process. Then,
before you begin sewing, lay large pin
across the button, so that all your threads
will 90 over the pin. After you have
finished filling the holes with thread
draw out the pin and wind your thread
round and round beneath the button.
That makes a compact stem to sustain
the possible pulling and wear of the but

A QUARREL.

There's a knowing little proverb,
From the sunny land of Spain;
But in Northland, as in Southland,
its meaning clear and plain.
Lock it up within your heart;
Neither lose nor lend it
Two IL takes to make quarrel;
One can always end il.
Try it well in every way,
Still you'll find it true,
In fight without foe,
Pray what could you do?
II the wrath is yours alone,
Soon you will expend it
Two it takes to make a quarrel;
One can always end it.
Let's suppose that both are wroth,
And the strife begun,
If one voice shall cry for Peace"
Soon it will be done
If but one shall span the breach,
He will quickly mend it
Two il takes to make a QUARREL
One can always end it.

PIGS FEET SoUsED.

Scald and scrape clean the feet; if
the covering of the toes will not come
off without, SINCE them in hot embers,
until they are loose, then take them off.
Many persons lay them in weak lime
water to whiten them. Having scraped
them clean and white, wash them and
put them in pot of boiling water, with
little salt, and let them boil gently,
until by turning fork in the flesh it
will easily break, and the bones are
loosened. Take off the scum as it rises.
When done, take them from the hot
water into cold vinegar, enough to cover
them, add to it one-third as much of the
water in which they were boiled; add
whole pepper and allspice, with cloves
and mace if liked, put a cloth and II
tight-fitting cover over the pot or jaI.
Soused feet may be eaten cold from the
vinegar, split in two from top to toe, or
having split them, dip them in wheat
-four and fry IN hot lard, or broil and
butter them.
