Evidently Insane.

Idaho Avalanche: The female
tramp who was in town some weeks
ago, is still wandering around the
country and has become q familiar
sight to everybody from Jordan Valley
TO South Mountain. She is evidently
insane, and if not taken in charge of
by the authorities she will perish from
exposure. Her manners indicate that
she is a woman OF culture and refine
ment, and that she is not in her right
mind only appears in her purposeless
wanderings. A few nights ago she
laid out in the brush on top OF South
Mountain and was nearly two days
without food. She walks 10 or 15
miles day, carrying two quite heavy
satchels, and although wan and worn
looking seems to enjoy good health.
In any climate but the glorious one
We possess here no woman could en-
dure so much fatigue and exposure.

Faets About the Human Family.


There are about 1900, 100000 in
habitants on the globe. OF these 49,
033, 1888 die yearly. There are 1904
languages and over 1000 religions
professed by the people. The number
of males and females is about equal,
and their average life is about thirty
three years; one.fourth OF the inhabi-
tants die before they reach their
fifteenth year. To l 900 persons only
one reaches the age of one hundred
years; to every 100 only six reach the
age of sixty-five and not more than
one in 500 lives to see the eightieth
year. Married persons live longer
than single ones and the tall have a
better chance for life than those short
of stature. Women have more chances
OF life in their favor previous TO fifty
years of age than men have, but fewer
after wards. The greatest number of
marriages takes place in June and
December-about the time the Sum-
mer and Winter solstices. Dark
haired persons have a better chance
in the struggle for existence than those
of the opposite complexion, except in
contagious diseases, where blondes are
comparatively exempt. Births are
more frequent by night than by day,
also, deaths-St. Louis Republic.

Kisses by Mail.

The young Postmaster OF an Eastern
village was hard at work in his office
when a gentle tap was heard upon the
door and in stepped blushing maiden
OF sixteen, with n money order which
she desired cashed. She handed it,
with bashful smile, TO the official,
who after closely examining it, gave
her the money it called for. At the
same time he asked her if she had
read what was written on the margain
of the order. "No, have not" she
replied, for l cannot make it out.
VIII you please read it for me ?"
The young Postmaster read as fol-
lows: E" | send you So and a dozen
kisses"
Glancing at the bashful girl, he
said: Now, / have paid you the
money l suppose you want the
kisses?"
Yes" she said, if he sent me
any kisses ! want them, too"
II is hardly necessary to say that
the balance Of the order was promptly
paid and in a scientific manner.
On reaching home the delighted
maiden remarked to her mother:
Mother, this Postofiice system OF
ours is great thing, developing more
and more every year, and each new
feature seems to be the best Jimmy
sent me dozen kisses along with the
money order and the Postmaster gave
me twenty. 1t beats the special

Don't Care III DO,

"While | was in Seattle a short
time ago." remarked Noah Armstrong
yesterday as he was accepting an in
vitation to imbibe, "I met an old
friend who is building a railroad from
Seattle to Bellingham Bay. We were
in saloon and began questioning
him about the work and its progress,
and the conversation ran about like
this:
"That's a pretty good country you're
building to, captain"
"' Don't care If do, he replied. |
paid no attention to this unseemly
reply, thinking it was a joke, and so
we took a drink, when l again
ventured:
"When do you expect to finish the
roadl"
"'Don't care il l do was the
contractors reply, and once more we
filed them.
Next time l raised my voice and
yelled:
How did you fix that right of way
matter?"
"' Don't care il do, he once more
replied, and about that time the whole
house caught on, and il just occurred
TO me that my friend was deaf, fact
which had entirely forgotten. -

Prayed for Him In Advance.

A young lady resident of West
ern city, not engaged to be married,
and Enthusiastically fancy free, stated
with an air of the most charm
ing righteousness that she prayed
every night for her husband, "be-
cause, you know, ii l am to be mar
ried my husband is living somewhere
in this world, and | pray always that
he may be delivered from all tempta-
tions, be kept in good health, and be
successful in whatever path OF busi-
ness he has chosen" "And is this
all you pray for in reference to him ?''
was asked. "Oh, no." and she
blushed a little as she made this ad-
mission: "I pray that We may soon
be brought togetherl"

To Make Ice.water Last.

A useful attribute of paper not
generally known is for preserving ice
in pitcher of water. Fill the pitcher
with ice and water, and set it on the
center OF a piece of paper; then gather
the paper up together at the top and
place the ends tightly together, plac-
ing a strong rubber band about the
coil to hold it close, so as TO exclude
the air. A pitcher OF ice-water treated
in this manner has been known to
stand over night with scarcely a per
ceptible melting of the ice.-Rehoboth
