Gently, and finished disastrously for the
journeyer. A man named Sherman
Zeitung ensconced himself in q big
wooden box which he had marked

to Paris, and Zeitung, having plenty of
food with him, went undetected until
he was lifted out on the freight plat

not wait long enough, but in his eager
ness pushed the cover off and jumped
ont Of the box into the arms of a rail-
road official, who had been greatly puz-
zled by the queer sounds that came

wa fraudulent; Zeitung was promptly
arrested as q swindler.

Senator Blackburn's Nightmare.

Joe Blackburn has been reelected to
the United States Senate. While lie
was out in the State visiting the legis-
lators he arrived one evening at q small
village with only one hotel. It was u
railroad town and most of the rooms of
the hotel ere occupied by railroad
men. There was only one vacant apart
ment, and that was to be occupied by
an engineer who might come at any
time. Blackburn was tired and sleepy,
and said he would occupy the room and
take the chances.
Some time in the night the Senator
was awakened by the thrusting of a
bright lantern into his face. Somebody
seized him by the shoulders, gave him a
tremendous shake, and o coarse, gruff
voice exclaimed:
"Get up, Lanky; "you've got to go
out on No. 9. Skinny's already gone on
No. 2. and the order is for you to fol-
low. Shorty's goin' to make the power
for you, and Sandy Jim is goin' to do
the figurin' in the back end"
As such language was strange to the
Senator he concluded it must he q night
mare, turned over, and was dropping
off to sleep again when he was shaken
two or three times, dragged out of bed
and dropped on the floor.

der; shat won't wash, Lanky. I'm not
going to loose my job for you. If I
leave You here you'll go to bed, think
ing you'll only snooze q minute, and Of
course you'll get left. Then they'll fire
me for not calling you. No, there amt
no use to kick. Put on your clothes
and come on. I hear old No. 9 growl-
ing now. Hurry up!"
What in - do you suppose I know
or are about No. or exclaimed the
Senator.
sWhat are ye given meg" answered
the intruder. "Ive had 'em tell me
that before when they were sleepy and
didn't want to CO."
Then the night watchman, for it was
he, and he had taken the Senator for
the engineer, whom he was to awake,
thrust the lantern into Mr.. Blackburn'a
face. He recognized his mistake and
knew the Senator, and was for a mo-
ment aghast. He quickly recovered
himself and said:

As he spoke he pulled out . small
pocket flask and handedi Il to the sena-
tor. The latter took draught, smiled
affably, said the apology was sufficient,

Many years ago We saw a farmer set
ting posts for q board fence. Having
the erroneous idea that it was water
which most rotted the posts, and that
stones piled in the hole around the
post would keep it dry, he filled the hole
within o foot Of the top with small
stones. As no drainage was given, of
course the water settled aroundthe post,
and the light covering of earth allowed
frost to penetrate to the bottom aud
heave the posts up. The fence lasted
only a few years, and was an offence
most of that time. The water dried out
by midsummer, and then the loose
stones around the posts were the refuge
of mice. which proved especially de-
structive to a young orchard near by. It
was found, when the posts were dug out,
that moist Dir had rotted the low er ends,
while those put down in clay soil with
the earth packed around closely were
still in good condition:

IT appears that the famous text in
Leviticus viii, 18, on which the oppo.
nents of marriage with a deceased
wife's sister base their principal argu-
ment, has hitherto been wrongly trans
lated. Professor Schroeder, the Presi-
dent of the Imperial German Commits
sion for the revision of the Bible, says
the verse means that q man must not
take his sister-in-law as his wife while
her sister is alive. That is to say, he
must not have two wives living OF the
same time in his house who are sisters.
Luther's text essentially agrees with
this.

A favorite way of serving bananas in
New Orleans is to cut them lenethwise
in W. pieces, dust them with powdered
sugar. a little lemon juice and bits of
butter, and to bake them in the oven for
twenty-five minutes. They should be
basted with butter n or twice while
baking, and served hot in the dish in
which they are cooked.

The coverings are thrown buck over

ficient to air the DOM.

going through this form, and tucked in
snugly at the sides AID foot to prevent
the fresh air getting in or the Ntale air
escaping.
The right way of performingthis work
is not SO difficult tuat one need shrink
from it. The coverings should first be
stripped back owe two chairs set ut the
foot of the bed. The mattress should
then be doubleds $50 the air may get to all
parts of it and left SO for from half an
hour to an hour. In very severe winter
weather. the time may be lessened.
Each piece of bed-clothing should be
we'll shaken before it is restored to it's
place. and the pillows beaten aud patted
into shape. The white spread. that
should have been removed at bedtime
the night before and neatly folded, is
now fresh and smooth. If pillow
shams are not used. the creased night
slips may be exchanged for fresh day
cases and the former laid aside until
needed in the evening.
The bed is not all that needs close
care in the sleeping-room. The dust
ing is far more important than MANY
people suspect. Accommodations of fluff
and dust form a favorite nesting place
for disease germs and unsavory smells.
On this account many ornaments are not
to be commended in u bed chamber.
The bits of drapery. the brackets, the
gay Japanese fans, the photographs and
the pieces of bric-a-brac that are ad-
inirable in other parts of the house. are
out of place here. Whatever furniture
there is should be carefully wiped off
each day with a soft cloth and this

sweeping ut least once a week, and ut
this time every article in it should be
movedand no nook nor corner left IN
brushed. II there are curtains al the
windows, they should be we'll shaken
that no dust may linger in their folds.
The recsptacles for waste water should
be washed out every day and scalded
three times a week. In hot weather, the
scalding should take place every day,
and the utensils be summed if possible.
Wash cloths should be rung out in boil
ing water every other day. Without this
they Soon become offensive. Shoes and
other articles of apparel should not be
left lying about the room to gather dust
and look untidy. Soiled clothes should
never be left in n sleeping-room. They
contaminate the atmosphere.
When all these precautions are closely
followed, there will be no trouble with
the close, unpleasant odor that one finds
often in even handsome aud apparently
well-kept bed rooms. Such malolors
are not only d~isagreeable, but positively
unwholesome, especially for delicate
persons and cLildrcn.-iIousewife.
