How to Drink MIX.

Don't swallow milk fast and in such big
gulps. Sip it slowly. Take four minutes
at least to finish that glassful, and don't
take more than a good teaspoonful at one
sup. When milk goes into your stomach it
is instantly curdled. If you drink a large
quantity at once it is curdled into one big
mass, ON the outside of which only the
juices of the stomach can work. II you
drink it in sips each little sip is urdled up
by itself, and the whole glassful finally
finds itself in loose lump made up of lit
tie Jumps, through, around and among
which the stomach's juices may percolate
and dissolve the whole speedily and
simultaneously. Many people who like
milk and know it's value as a
strength-giver think they cannot use it
because it gives them indigestion. Most of
them could use it freely if they would only
drink it in the way have described, or if
they would, better still, drink it hot. Hot
milk seems to lose good deal of it's densi-
ty; you would almost think it had been
watered, and it also seems to lose much of
Its sweetness, which is cloying to some ap-
petltes. If the poor only knew and appre-
ciated the value of milk taken in this way, I
am sure there would not be SO much beer
drinking among them. There are thou
sands of hard-working scrubwomen, wash
women. factory girls. and even shop girls,
IN this city, who drink beer with their
meals because it gives little stimulant to
their tired bodies, aud don't understand
that 1t Is only like applying a whip to q
weary horse. instead of giving HIM oats. II
| they only knew they would find in thus SIM
pie draught as much real strength as IN q
barrel of beer.-New York Tribune.

Novel railroad Ideas.

''There is no limit to the odd and ingen.
ious things in the railroad line," said Mr..
Chas. A. Newell, who makes his home in
Chicago, and devotes most Of his time to
railroad construction in the west and north
west to a New York Star reporter. "Not
long ago ran across Michigan inventor
who had a railroad bicycle which sat upon
the track in the same manner that a door
pulley runs upon groove. With it he can
make mile in less than minute on down
grades. Its chief drawback is that when it
meets a switch or frog both it and it's
rider rise up in the air and disappear.
another man," he continued, worried
me with system Of lights, in which the
motion Of the wheels produced an electric
current that makes the cars as bright as
day inside and Eliminates the exterior I'M
til it fairly shines, according to his imag-
ination. This is to prevent collision with or
overtaking of other trains. As everything
goes out the moment the cars are STILL and
the train is left in utter darkness, it did not
take long to dismiss the gentleman who
evolved the idea. Equally curious is the no
tlon of st. Paul man, who proposed to
build cars out of steel in the shape of a
sausage. In the case of collision, instead
of telescoping, the cars would rise up over
each other and practically pile themselves
in neat heaps.
"The queerest proposition of all, how
ever, is that of a man who wants to catch
passengers for express trains in the same
manner as they scoop up water or take in
mail bags when going at full speed. The
luckless traveller is to be in a long trough
between the rails, upon curved iron bed.
From the bottom of the train a movable
piece of steel comes down, which catches
bed and occupant and throws them in.

only say had no interest in either coroners
or undertakers,''

CONVERTED BY A TEAPOT.

Sir Edwin Arnold's Experience with the
Japan Drink.
Sir Edwin Arnold writes from Japan:

PATERNAL LEGISLATION.

How Marriage Gifts Are Regulated by
Law in India.
A series of rules have just been issued by
the government of India for regulating the
marriage expenses of the Kadya kanbi
caste in certain districts of the Bombay
presidency. Power was given to the gov
eminent to make such rules under an act of
1870 for the prevention of the murder of
female infants. The rules are curious ex-
ample of the patriarchal legislation some
times necessary in oriental countries. Thus
the presents to be given at betrothal bv the
father or guardian of the bride to the father
or guardian of the bridegroom ''shall not
exceed one rupee and seven suparis or betel-
mats. The marriage present payable to the
bridegroom's father may be one rupee, and
shall not exceed l0l rupees. nor shall
the value of the cocoanuts distrib-
uted at the marriage process
sion exceed 10 rupees. The same
limit is fixed on the value of the present by.
the brides maternal relations. The pay

two rupees, nor shall the payment on &C.

earthen pot with eatables when the bride

The gift to be paid at the time of the pros
tration of the bride before her mother in
law is limited to seven rupees; the number
of dinner parties given by the BRIDES
family is not to be more than five, and the
number of guests at each must not be more
than twenty five. The marriage party
going to the brides village is not to spend
more than 80 rupees, and when the bride
goes to her husbands house with hel
first child the amount to be paid to the
bridegroom's friends is not to be more than
| II rupees, and may be as low as one rupee
The present to be given by the brides

laws house, the amount to be paid to him
is not to exceed two rupees, nor shall he
take with him on such occasions more than
five men. 1t is expressly provided also that
in no case shall the father or guardian OF
the bride take any money from the Other
on account of giving his daughter. The
rules do not interfere with the customary
presents of sweetmeats on social and cere-
monial occasions.

once dominated New Jersey completely.
A state does itself an injustice in legis-
lating against railroad and other corpo-
rations, which should be treated with
the same fairness accorded to individuals.
A corporation that sets out to pull
wires that animate the civil and judicial
branches Of government makes quite as
serious mistake, for the time of ad-
justment is sure to come, sooner or late.
1t is to be feared that in California the
difficulty is not so much with the laws
as with their administration. A thor
oughly upright and intelligent Judiciary
would never have given occasion for the
accusation that conflicting decisions
have rendered nugatory the work of the
constitutional convention of ten or
twelve years ago. In a sentence, the
people and not the corporations should
select the judges, and they in turn
should possess the honesty to construe
the law in spirit Of justice, irrespective
of the wealth or poverty Of the litigants.

Mr.. Duigg's New Book.

"Tin-Types Taken in the Streets of New
York; is the title of Mr.. L. E. Quigg's
charming new book. 1t is series of
sketches and pen pictures of metropolitan
life as viewed by keen observer and clever
writer. Street scenes, everyday incidents,
phases of character and portraits of nature
are brought to the reader in bright
gossipy way. Not dali line is to be found
from beginning to end. Familiarity with
New York life is by no means necessary to
the reader. Human nature is pretty much
the same everywhere and it is entertain
ingly discussed by Mr.. Quigg for the enjoy
ment of all classes of readers. The illus
trations from the clever hand of Harry
Beard form an excellent feature. The book
is published by the Cassell company, and is
handsomely printed and bound. It can be
found in this city at the journal Publish
ing company's store.

The announcement that the Young
Mems Christian Association is about to
be reorganized and put on sound fnan-
cial basis is good news. These associa-
tions in other cities with their reading
rooms, courses of lectures, gymnasiums,
ETC., have done much to make the lot of
young men, especially strangers in the
community, pleasanter and the lnhu-
ences thrown around them have been all
for good. We hope the expectations Of
the Association in Helena will be fully
realized, and that it will soon be estab-
lished in a building of Its own which will
be a credit to the city and pride to the
members.

Mr.. RANDALL was figure who will be
greatly missed from public life. He was
not statesman in the highest sense of
the word. His education was limited
and his mind was neither broad nor deep,
but he was more of power in our ma
tional politics than many greater men.
He was innately honest, positive in his
convictions, stubborn in will, and had
that pugnacity Of disposition which made
him a vital force in the house of repre-
sentatives. He was cogent and con-
vincing speaker, but not an orator. His
command Of language was limited and
in debate he was not brilliant, but he
carried his points over ADLER men by the
sheer force OF his personality. He had
those two great qualities that make any
Had he been more of student of poll
tics and less Of a politician, he would
have won lasting fame and his name
would have gone down to history among
the foremost sons of the republic. His
great service to the democratic party
consisted in practising the virtues which
the party platform professed. He be-
lieved in the rigid restriction of expendi-
lures to the necessities of an economi-
cally conducted government, and moth
ing ever swerved him from his purpose.
Mr.. Tilden believed that Mr.. Randall
would one day be the nominee of his
party for president, but the latter made
that impossible when he gave his adher-
ence to the Pennsylvania policy Of high
tariff against the views and declarations
of the majority of his party. On the
whole he was useful, able and influen-
tial public servant-one of a type of
whom the country always has too few.

THE ATHLETIC GROUNDS.
Prospects That the Association viii Get q
Good Site

Prospects That the Association Will Get q
Good Site.
1t is understood that under the Helena
Athletic associations invitation for sealed
bids for site for grounds several FIVE acre
tracts will be offered to the directors in diff
ferent parts of the city. All bids must be in
by p. m. on Wednesday.
The idea of an athletic associa ton in Hell
ena is meeting with great popular favor and
the success of the undertaking promises to
be far greater than its promoters
had anticipated. In connection with
this enterprise the story of the
remarkable growth of a similar club
in Washington, D. c., which is told in the
New York Sun, will be found of interest. It
was the outgrowth of the Columbia Rowing
club. Starting with few names in modest
quarters it now has membership of 600
bright and brawny youngsters, and in
sprinting, vaulting, bicycling, tennis play
ing and other outdoor sports many local
victories have been won.
The house which this club will dedicate
next month is conceded by experts to be
this country, and in some respects sur
passed by none. It has been modelled some
what after the famous New York Club, and,
so far as gymnastio apparatus is concerned,
is complete IN every detail. The gymnasium
room is said to be finer even than that of
the New York Club, and the immense swim
ming pool, with sides of glazed tile and
Turkish bath accomplishments is an attrac-
ton rarely found even in the finest houses.
The billiard rooms, bowling alleys, recep-
ton rooms. and library are most attractive,
and contain all the latest modern improve
ments. The building is an immense struc-
ture of brown stone and pressed brick. the
interior finished in polished oak, and its
cost when complete will be about $55, 600.
A beautiful tennis court adjoins the build
ing, the contests upon which can be viewed
from the great broad piazza running along
the entire side of the building.
Some of the most distinguished men in
social and political life at the capital are
members Of this athletic club and take
great interest in it. Secretary Whitnev
was an active member during his residence
in Washington, and Alexander Gregar, the
secretary of the Russian legation. was en-
thusiastic in his admiration of the club,
and educated many of its young men in the
science of fencing and broadsword con-
tests, in which he is an expert. Among the
men who have joined the club recently are
Vice President Morton, Senators Mcmillan
and Wolcott, and scores of others of the
best known and most prominent men at
the capital. This new home of the athletes
has awakened an interest in athletic exer-
cises in Washington that amounts almost
to craze, and among the spring diversions
of Washington society none will be so pop
ular as those to be inaugurated and carried
out by the Columbia Athletic club.
