The Nimble Swiss Cow.

Its cows and goats are the pride of the
Prattigau, in Switzerland. No people
in Europe is so rich in them. Each has
her bell fastened by broad strap and
great brass buckle, in whose size the
owner glories as our ancestors in their
shoe buckles. These bells are carefully
chosen; each has different tone, and so
serves to identify the animal, as well as
to trace it should it stray. The tinkling
of the bells as the herds come down
from the mountain pastures in the late
afternoon has never-failing poetic
charm, and no doubt many wanderer
in the painless uplands has been led by
their sound, as have, to the hospitable
Sennitutte, and guide.
Most of us have laughed over the COW
who "lowed" Mark Twain's guide into
Zermatt, but one learns to think with
respect of the COW as mountain climber
and even as guide. Your Swiss cow
will go with ease where her herdsman
does not like to follow. She never seems
in the least doubt about the next step.
She will find the shortest way to get any
where where there is bit of grass or
shade. She rarely slips, never falls, and
| have watched for several evenings one
who regularly jumps two fences to make
short cut on the railroad track in spite
of the herdsman's vigorous protests. -

Some Furs of Great Beauty.

A Southern fur of great beauty is the
chinchilla. 1t is found on a dear little
animal with big, black eyes. The chin
chilla is only about nine inches in length,
with five-inch tail; its hind legs are
longer than its fore legs, and its ears are
as long as its head. 1t makes a delight
full pet, neither biting nor seeking to es-
cape, but it is not often seen alive in
the North. The fur is long, thick, and
crisply entanglcd, but as it reaches the
market is smooth and as soft as down.
The fur is best when she animal is taken
in the cold heights of the Andes, but it
is found all over Chilli, Peru, and Brazil.
The eolors are gray, black, and white, so
richly shaded as to make it one of the
most beautiful of furs. Inferior squir-
rel skins are worked over into "chinchil-
Ia" The best squirrel comes from Sib-
eria. South America and Africa each
contribute to the recent fad for monkey
skins.
Fitch, popular long ago and recently
revived, is the fur of the European pole
cat. The animal is dark brown above,
yellowbrow below, with black tail and
legs. The bears have been pushing their
way through to the fashionable market
latterly, and last year became favorite
fur for shoulder capes and for trimming
seal and other furs. The cinnamon bear,
pure brown and very long haired fur,
has been most used, in its natural color,
and re-created into varieties of bear or
which no hunter ever heard. The dark,
silvery-gray fur, falling apart in little
punches and looking suggestively like
the fur of drowned cat, is said to be
from the badger.
The raccoon, brownish gray, with
black or brown markings, the Perry wolf
or coyote, the tiger cat from South Amer
lea and Hudson's Bay, the stumpy legged
wolverine with the pretty fur, and the
vicious but handsome Hudson's Bay wolf
are all diligently sought that their fur
may be made up into the elegant robes
that make half the delight of sleighing.
For the sleighing which did not come

liage muff after the pattern of her grand
mothers, foot in diameter and foot
and half in length, of sealskin, price
$50. 1t looked like baby seal. - New

PECULIAR INFATUATION.

'
tion "Love One Another"
Do men ever fall in love with each other2
Women do. Not long ago a young woman
in New Jersey was married to a Youthful Ia
borer on her fathers farm. Sometime after
ward 1t was discovered that the husband was
female; the young wife refused, however,
though earnestly entreated by her friends, to
give up her chosen consort. The strangest
part OF the discovery was the fact that the
bride knew her husband was woman before
she was led to the altar.
If men do not exhibit this strange infatua-
ton for one of their own sex, they at least
oftentimes give evidence of the fact that they
love one another. There are many instances
on record where one man has given his life
for another. There are many more instances
were men have given life to another
that one has saved precious human life
Meriden, Conn, is the home of such happy
man. John II. Preston, of that city, July
18th, 1890, writes: "Five years ago / was
taken very sick, had several of the best doc
tors, and one and all called it a complication
of diseases. was sick four years, taking
prescriptions prescribed by these same doc
tors, and truthfully state | never expected

Mr.. r. T. Cook of the firm of Curtis & Cook,
advised me to try Warmers Safe Cure as he
had been troubled the same way and it had
effected cure for him. Ibought six bottles,
took the medicine as directed and am to-day
well man. am sure no one ever had
worse case of kidney and liver trouble than |

prietary medicines but not now, oh, nor
Friendship expresses itself in very peculiar
ways sometimes; but the true friend is the
friend in need.

A Wonderful Discovery.

One of the most wonderful discoveries
in science that has been made within the
last year or two is the fact that beam
of light produces sound. A beam Of
sunlight is thrown through a lens on a
glass vessel that contains lampblack,
colored silk or worsted, or other sub
stances. A disk having Sits Or openings
cut in it is made to revolvc swiftly iu
this beam of light so as to cut it up, thus
making alternate flashes of light and
shadow. On putting the ear to the glass
vessel strange sounds are heard so long
as the flashing beam is falling on the
vessel.
Recently more wonderful discovery
has been made. A beam of sunlight is
made to pass through prism, so as to
produce what is called the solar spec
trum or rainbow. The disk is turned
and the colorei light of the rainbow is
made to break through it. Now place
the ear to the vessel containing the silk,
wool or other material. As the colored
lights of the spectrum fall upon it,
sounds will be given by different parts
of the spectrum, and there will be silence
in other parts.
For instance, if the vessel contains
rcd worsted, and the green light flashes
upon it, loud sounds will be given.
Only feeble sounds will be heard when
the red and blue parts of the rainbow
fall upon the vessel, and other colors
make no sound at all. Green silk gives
sound best in red light. Every kind of
material gives more or less sound in
different colors, and utters no sound in
others.
The discovery Is strange one, and it
is thought more wonderful things will
come from it.-[Golden Days.

Edward Day Cahota has the unique
distin ction of being the only pure
blooded Mongolian who served in the
war of the rebellion. In 1857 Captain
Sergeant Day, of Gloucester, Mass,
purchased him at Shanghi for twenty
one Mexican silver dollars. He was
then but years old and received his
name after that of his master and the
vessel over which he was captain. Ed
ward was given to him as convenient
handle. Returning to this country
Capt. Day placed Cahota in the public
schools at Gloucester where he was re-
ceiving good education when the war
began. Cahota then enlisted, serving
until the end and at all times display
ing unwonted bravery. At the end of
the war he enlisted for eight years in
the regular army, subsequently settling
on O ranch in Colorado. He has since
acquired fortune and recently returned
from Europe where he had been on q
wedding trip. His wife is German
lady of good family.

Only One Chinaman in the Late
War.

E. D. Cahota visited Libby Prison
War Museum few days ago and inspec
ted the curious relics of the war. Mr..
Cahota is a native born Chinaman. He
has lived in this country nearly forty
years, having left the land of his birth
when only six years old. Long before
the Chinese Exclusion law was dreamt of
he had proved his fitness for the duties
of American citizenship by taking up
arms in defence of his adopted country
and marching to the front. Although
but fifteen years old when the war broke
out, he declared that he was over age and
enlisted in the Twenty third Massachu-
sets Volunteers, under command of
Colonel Andrew Ellwood-the only rep
resentatve of the Mongolian race among
the millions of men thus facing each
other in struggle for life and death.
Cahota was an unique character. I'm
der fire Cahota proved that he was made
of the stern stuff, for his bravery was
commented on during various engage
ments, notably at Cold Harbor and in
the building Of General Buffers signal
station in front of Petersburg. At the
close of the war Cahota was mustered
out along with the survivors of the regi-
ment, then under command of Colonel
Raymond of Marblehead. Since that
time Mr.. Cahota has devoted himself to
business, there being little in common
between him and the ordinary Chinaman
beyond certain race characteristics of
feature. In speech and dress he is an
ordinary citizen. Chicago Herald.

behavior in church. He has been often
reproved for laughing and talking loudly
during divine service, and has become
quite exemplary in those respects. A few
Sundays ago he accompanied his mother
to the service at the church at Concha.
The priest whose duty it was to preach
the sermon was stalwart and energetic
ecclesiastic, and he got excited by his
own eloquencc, and banged the pulpit
cushion and shouted out his denunciation
of the wicked in very vehement style.
At the first pause there came from the
royal pew little piping voice, remark
ing shrilly, 'Look here, man, don't you
know it is very wrong to talk out loud
in churchl"

Vaseline as a Shoe-Cleaner.

1t is not generally known that the
easiest way to clean shoes or rubber over
shoes which have become muddy is with
vaseline. A little 'swab" of flannel on
the end of stick is good for this pur-
pose. Even if the vascine touches the
hands, it forms a coating over them so
that the task is not so unpleasant as it
otherwise would be. Such dressing as
this is sufficient for some fine kid shoes
but others may need coat of polish. Ii
the polish is put ON after coat of vase
line it is not liable to crack the leather
and it lasts much longer. Rubber over
shoes, especially, look much better and
last much longer if cleaned in this way
than if they are washed with water.

Here is an old story in new dress. 1t
is told by Paris writer for the Phila-
delphia Telegraph:
There come from Spain the most cheer
ing accounts of the health of the child
sovereign Alfonso XllI. He is growing
fast, is once more strong and lively, and,
in fact, gives no end of trouble to his
mother and his governess by his exuber-
ant spirit and head-over- ways.
Just now he is enjoying the baths and
sea breezcs of the lovely seaside resort of
Concha, and whenever his small majesty
makes his appearance in front of the
royal bath house he is salutcd on all sides
with cries of Long live the king"

whtopinc POST NeedeJ,

The Butte Journal says that Mon
tana, and for that matter all the States
in the Union, need to adopt the Mary
land law and establish the whipping
post, for the especial benefit of wife
beaters. Quite a number of these
gentry flourish in Butte, and in the
absence Of such a legal remedy it
would not be a bad scheme to white
car" the brutes. The latest Ease is
that of Geo. w. Cole, of Dublin Gulch,
who has in the past achieved quite a
reputation for beating his wife and
smashing his household goods just to
demonstrate that he is boss Of the
shanty. George got on his high
horse Friday night and while in a
state of ~intoxication proceeded to beat
his wife in a most brutal manner,
some Of the neighbors saying that he
broke her arm. After he had satisfied
his thirst for fight upon the poor
woman he turned his attention to the
household furniture, and with the aid
of an ak proceeded to make kindling

Cases of

The cold snap has had a number Of
victims, far more than the public
can know of, for but few care to have
their misfortunes in that direction
made public. Last Thursday a young
man, whose name was not learned,
reached South Butte after a tramp
from somewhere near the divide, and
fell senseless from the effects of the
cold. He was taken in charge and
resuscitated, but his ears and feet
were frozen. On the same day Dick
Kornberg, a brother OF Gus Kornberg,
reached Butte in return from a trip to
the Lowlands, but had not taken
sufficient precautions against the
weather. As a result both his feet
were frozen and he is now confined to
his home, where he is under the care
OF a physician. Another case was re-
ported Friday night, that of an Italian
wood chopper, who worked in one OF
the camps at the park, whose feet
were so badly frozen as to render
amputation necessary--Butte Journal.

Marriage Instructs You.

By taking a wife a man certainly adds
to the list of those who have a right to
interfere with and advise him, and he
runs the risk of putting in his own way
another very strong and perhaps insup-
cradle obstacle to his acting according to
his own opinions and inclinations. By
marrying you place yourself upon the
defensive in society, which latter is ad-
mitted to be in all contentious the most
advantageous mode Of proceeding.
Before marriage the shape, the figure,
the complexion carry all before them,
after marriage the mind and character
unexpectedly claim their share, and Of
the largest, Of Importance. Before
was married, whenever l saw the child
rem and the dogs allowed, or rather
caused, to be troublesome in any family,
l used to lay it all to the fault Of the
master Of it, who might at once put 8
stop to it if he pleased. Since | have
married / find that this was a very rssf
and premature judgment.
