CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT.

Effect Which Snow and Ice Have Upon
- the Tropical magination.--
The natives of tropical countries are
seldom SO much astenished as when
they are first introduced to snow and
ice. The congealing 4of water is a
phenomenon they are slow TO compre--
bend. A few months ago Sir William
Macgregor enticed several New Guinea
natives to the hitherto unscaled sum
init of Mount Owen Stanley, the
loftiest peak in British Australasia. On
its barren summit, nearly a thousand
feet above the zone of vegetation, big
icicles were found, greatly to the
amazement of the natives, who were
much startled when they touched them,
and insisted that their fingers had been
burned.
A year ago when Mr.. Ehlers as
cended Mount Kilima-Njaro, in Africa,
his native porters, who had lived all
their lives near the base of the great
mountain, pulled off the boots with
which they had been provided as they
approached the snow line and plunged
merrilys into the snow in their bare
feet They lost no time in plnnging
out again, and lay writing on the
ground, insisting that their feet had
been severely burned. Some of the
Central African natives, who have been
introduced into Germany, mistook last
winter the first snow-storm they saw
for flight of white butterflies. Lieu
tenant Won Francois says the mis-
take was very natural one. One day
when he was ascending tributary of
the Congo he saw for the first time the
air filled with great swarm of white
butterflies, and he says the spectacle
closely resembled a gentle fall Of snow.
The seductive summer drink, so popu-
lar in our latitude during the dog days,
produces upon the untutored savage,
when first brought to his notice, as un-
pleasant an effect as an unexpected
electric shock. King Dinah, of West
Africa, has been one of the recent
sight-seers in Paris. An attempt was
made one day to explain to him the
nature of ice by introducing him to an
iced drink. The unusual sensation
greatly startled his Majesty, and he
dashed the cooling draught on the floor
as soon as he had tasted it.
1t is said that our Alaskan Esquimaux
think the weather is uncomfortably
sultry when the temperature is at the
freezing point, while. the Central African
shivers in great distress in tempera-
ture of sixty degrees above zero.-N. Y.

Buying Foreign Titles.

Mr. Huntington now owns Prince
HATFIELD, who appears to be nobleman
in name only; Mr.. Mackay has the
Prince of Colonna, an italian pauper;
the Jeromes have Lord Randolph
Churchill, who is, perhaps, a little bet
ter than the average of his kind, intel
lectually, at least; and other New York
ers have proprietary interest in for
eign noblemen, with regulations more or
less damaged and Of various degrees OF
poverty. While European syndicates
are buying up American industrial
plants, capitalists on this side are APP
parently getting upa corner in European
titles. The exchange is hardly an even
one, for, while the properties acquired
by the syndicates are of great value, the
s'noblemen" purchased by the New York
millionaires are, to put it mildly ,worth-
less If the scheme is to establish an
American aristocracy at some time in
the future, it must be confessed that the
material selected for the foundation is
extremely poor Chicago News.

The advantages of this brooder are:
l. The cold air is warmed and passes
under the mother, thus giving constant
warm air and constant ventilation, the
heat itself being fresh air. o. The
smoke of the lamp is carried above. the
mother, and can not affect the chicks.
g. The dead air space between the floor
and heater-box iM) prevents too much
bottom heat 4. Two lamps Zone on
each side) may be used II desired, pro-
yided division is made in the wooden
box. 5. The lamp, being outside Of the
box, does not become overheated, but is
always cool, thus avoiding smoking. 8.
If preferred, piece of tin may be used,
as shown by the dotted lines TT, in
order to concentrate the heat of the
lamp by reducing the space in the box.
The box, M, only slopes on two sides,
and extends across the whole of the
wooden box, and is consequently yard
square, the ends next to the lamp and
smoke-stack being only half an inch
high, while the ends on the other sides
ARE one inch high at the center, as
shown in Fig. 8. If preferred, the holes,
A A, may be on the other sides, pro-
vided box M slopes from those sides.
The brooder should not be too warm
on the floor. II such is the case false
floor may be used over the floor. The
proper heat should be about ninety de-
grees half way between the floor and the
bottom of the mother. At night the
heat may get rather low. 1t is just
right when the chicks sit near the edge
ofthe mother, which is simply board
with strips Of cloth tackled around it and
cut in strips. If the chicks crowd to-
gether at night more warmth is neces-
pary. If chicks are found dead in the
morning, or have bowel disease, it indi-
Gates that you have not given sufficient
warmth. Keep chicks confined to the
floor of the brooder for a week before
giving them more space. The brooder
will hold one hundred chicks.

AN AGED INDIAN.
One That Went to the Happy Huntln,
Grounds at the Age of 1872.

One That Went to the Happy Hunting
Grounds at the Age of 132.
At the foot of the lofty peak of San
Jacinto, in the northern portion of San
Diego County, is the lovely valley Of
San Jacinto. There, in Soboba-
Indian village-liyed and died Vic
toriana, an Indian, in August Of last
year. Hewas probably the oldest man
who had lived in this century. Five
years before his death, upon the day
of the celebration of the one hundred
and fourth anniversary of the founding
of the San Louis Rey Mission, he was
interviewed by prominent citizens in
regard to his recollections of the Incl
dents attending the arrival of the old
mission fathers there. He showed him
self perfectly familiar with that matter,
and gave minute descriptions, stating
that most of the s.bucks" were wild and
made for the mountains, while he, with
several of the more sensible and cou-
rageous ones, remained with the
squaws, and were at once converted to
Catholicism and we'll treRted. He also
described how they finally, with the
help of the mission fathers,s succeeded
in inducing the wild bucks to return,
some Of whom they had to lasso in
order to bring them into the kingdom
of Heaven. Upon being closely ques-
toned, he stated that at this time he
had for some time been afull-grown man.
Placing him, then, at the arrival of the
fathers at twenty-three, he was at least
one hundred and thirty-two years old
when he died The probability is that
he was older. Residents who had
known him for thirty years say that he
was perfectly, honest and trustworthy
in statement, and that with the Indians
his word was law Both he and his
father had been chiefs of the Pueblo for
long time.
His eyes gradually shrunk and dried
up until he became blind. But his trusty
horse carried him to the town of San
Jacinto long after he lost his sight. He
had a robust frame, retained health to
the close, was never sick, ate less and
less, and gradually dried up and died.
His hair was perfectly white, which is a
rare occurrence with the Indian race.
He was always moderate eater, and
used to say the ''muchachos and much
achas' (boys and girls) were ssmuy
mala" Every bad); Eat every thing;
make EN- sick Indian only eat one
thing, live long; eat many things, die. :"
They live on corn and wheat ground
coarse. In the fall they dry .acerns and
make a pulp of them, which they mix
with great,yariety of seeds, and eat.
This makes them fat. ~
One Rosario, his great-granddaughter
was when he died mother of ono
Ortega's wife, who in turn had three
living children. AT least one other
Indian lives near by who is probably
nearly as old as Victoriana.
Mrs. victorfana, his fourth wife, is
still in the land Of the living. Chicago

snnd 1Esndicants.
Russian ofIicials have recently col
lected statistics concerning the number
Of begRars in Russian; provinces and
cities They have published the reports
from sixty-three districts and eight
Cities According to these reports,
Russia has about $50. 900 beggars, all Of
whom carry on begging as business
with the Endorsements Of village, city
and church authorities. Upward OF
5000 Of them are Of noble blood, 3, 49i
are Of the clerical calling, 90 we're once
merchants, As, 4S4 hucksters and small
traders, ISL, 932 peasants. OF all the
cities Moscow has the largest number Of
beggars, % 1000 persons solicit aims
daily within its limits. Sevastopol has
no beggars at all. OF the provinces
Livonia leads with 16, 900 beggars- Mos
COW and Courland come next with $1,000
each. Warsaw has $4,000, Nishni Nov
gorod and Wjatka 10000 each. Mos
COW, of all the Russian cities, contains
the most beggars Of noble descent.
The Greshdanin, Russian publica-
ton, thinks that these figures give no
adequate idea Of the prevalence Of beg
gary in Russia, because they we're gath
erred so hurriedly and often carelessly
that many big districts and cities were
unable to register more than two-thirds
of their paupers. Its calculation OF the
number of beggars in Russia results in
the conclusion that more than 100000
Russians outside of the almshouses live
on the charity of others. The statistics
in question have been laid before an
commission, which Is expected
to recommend new and comprehensive
plan for the care OF beggars in village
and city communities. IN Y. Sun.

FEEDING THE SICK.


Charge ~ ISrxS1iIas. q =
II is rarely easy and almost always
very dificult to persuade the sick to
take nourishment in sufficient quantity,
and the successful nurse must be rich
in expedients- Her persuasive power
must be great She must be patient
and yet firmly persistent until her
whole duty is done. There are certain
general rules for her to observe. A few
Of them we will give.
All foods for the sick should be Of tho
very best quality, we'll cooked, palata-
bly, seasoned and attractively served.
A sayory dish will always sharpen the
appetite of one in health, and it must
have stimulating influence upon q
delicate patient. to whom the fiat and
insipid preparations usually offered are
Ioathsome and even nauseating-
Surprise is frequently useful ele-
ment il the dietetic treatment Of the
sick Something unexpected will often
be acceptable, when, were the patient
consulted and advised Of what was being
prepared for him, would take away all
appetite for it. Cooking in the, sick
room is, of course, always forbidden,
nor should the smell Of food be allowed
to reach the patient If it is possible to
prevent it. Absolute neatness in the
service of food is prime consideration.
There is, more to the patient in clean
napkins, spotless china, ETC., than many
think A sloyenly nurse is out of place
anywhere. II the doctor directs that
certain foods be given hot, he means
that they should be hot, and not merely
warm, in which condition some foods
are very insipid sssas#ss;755ss=s;ssi5ss559
Occasionally one sees the nurse tast-
ing the food in the presence Of the pa
tientr--a most objectionable habit. No
more food should be at one time taken
into the sick-room than is likely to be
eaten, and whatever is not eaten should
be at once removed. Nurses often leave
it in sight, in the hope that the patient
may want it little later, but almost in
variably they are disappointed. 1t is
quite common thing for the physician
to find milk in a glass or pitcher stand
ing near the beside of his patient, and
often the appearance Of the glass is such
that even a person with The strongest
kind of a stomach would not care to
drink from 1t. 0f=all.foeds, milk prob
ably takes up impurities the easiest.
Hence, to keep it exposed to the air of a
.sick-rooms or any other bad air is to sim
render itssanfit for use. A.s-nurse
with any thing approaching neatness
would never allow glass which has
held milk to be used second time with
out carefully washing and srinsing.
Some consult their own convenience all
together too much in feeding the sick.
Food ought to be given at regular inter-
walls when possible. The Trained
Nurse.

Extralite Said to Possess Greater Power

A new explosive recently patented by
Rudolf Ericsson, a young Swede, was
tested the other afternoon before few
newspaper representatives on the line
OF excavation and blasting for the lay

new compound is called ''extralite," and
1t is claimed to be OF great power, but
also to be absolutely harmless when not
confined in an air-tight and rigid recep-
tacle. The extralite is an Innocent
locking, graduated substance OF about
the color and general appearance OF
coarse corn-meal, made up OF COM
pound OF ammoniacal salt, a hydro car
bon and chlorate OF potash. The first
experiment was to demonstrate its safe
ty while burning IN the open air. MIR.
