A New Occupation.
rCllatter.l


Inc latest occupation open to women
is that of lamp carer. 1 don't know If
that's what the ladies who take care of
lamps call themselves, but that's what
they really are. There are two in the
city now, or there will be two during
the winter. They are reduced gentle
women" and each morning they visit a
number of houses and clean, fill and
elk" the various fine lamps set before
them. The average servant can do moth
ing with lamp but spoil it; but these
ladies don their aprons and rubber
gloves, clean the outside and inside of the
lamps, see that the wicks are in good Or
der, fill the lamps and leave them SO that
even the stupidest servant cannot pre-
vent them from burning well.
They have studied lamps, know the
right kinds and sizes of wicks, know
whether COLA oil is needed in one kind
of lamps and starlight" in another,
and altogether they take away from the
owners a great deal of the care which
the management of the rediscovered and
much multiplied lamps brings upon
them -

Hints to Fishermen.

The most symmetrical pole doesn't al
ways catch the most fish.
Always fish in muddy water. Turtles
and small "catties" are sure to bite at
such time.
When fly fishing carry in your hat no
less than one dozen flies. This is always
an indication of being an experienced
angler.
Never use net when using fly pole.
When bass is hooked attempt to haul
him out as though he were small sun
fish. If you use net you might posi-
bly, catch him and destroy the tale of
''the big one You hooked, but which es-
capped"
Fish with a pole as thick as a mans
arm, use mason's cord, the largest hook
manufactured and tie a ten pound weight
to the end of the line. The weight makes
big splash" when cast into the water
and may attract the attention of the
bass.
For good fishing always select a
slough" away from the creek, and an
Choir your line firmly. Fish might bite
at the bait and destroy it if it were sub
merged in the Brandywine.
Never go ''fshin's

Curious Tornado Effects.
TSt. Paul Pioneer Press.1


ono Ct t3s occupants of the Good cot
tage, near Lake Gervais. an elderly lady,
was very fond of taking care of fowls,
and had rlised nearly hundred chick
ems and lacks. These were all killed by
the storm. The lady had also made a
nice lot of soft soap, OF which she was
very proud The soap had been left on
"a board by the side of the house. and of
course was carried away by the wind.
The occupants of the house took refuoe
in the cellar when the storm was saen
coming. All were more or less iniurad
and their clothing torn from their bod
les. IL was nearly half an hour before
all Were .e-elsed, more dead than alive
The lady spoken of was half unconscious,
and the moment she was taken from the
cellar she took one glance at the work of
the tornado, threw up her hands and ex-
claimed, "Oh, where are my ducks and
my chickens, and where is my nice soft
soap
Her soft soap has probably dissolved
in Lac Gervais, but the remains of her
ducks and chickens were found here and
there within a radius of mile or more
from the house. The ilea that Il tornado
could pluck the feathers from II fowl as
clean as could the most accomplished
chef has been laughed at, but some of
the chickens and ducks belonging to the
Good family were stripped of every
feather. But that was not the only re-
markable thing about them. Some of
the chickens found nearly mile from
the house had their necks stretched to a
remarkable length, the necks of some, it
is said by those who saw them, being at
least foot long. Another incident of
the storm is that one of the ladies who
took refuge in the cellar was almost
covered with oats, the sharp needles of
which penetrated her clothing and stuck
to the skin. The husband of the lady
vouches for this occurrence, and says
that it took nearly half an hour to re-
move the oarz-

According to Professor E. James, col
ored, the earth has but a little more than
a twelvemonth to stand. Professor
James is chiropodist with an interna-
tional reputation. He has travelled much
and removed corns and bunions from
the crowned heads of Europe, so to
speak. In his odd spells he turns his
mind loose on prophecy, and after a
careful study of the stars he is compelled
to fix Aug. 81, 1891, as the grand shake

Senator Sherman has introduced in
the senate bill to incorporate the Red
Cross society, with Clara Barton, George
KEENAN, and other well known persons
as incorporators. The purpose of this
society, briefly stated, is to mitigate dis
tress in the emergencies of war and
peace. This mission of humanity and
charity has been amply justified on
many occasions, and nowhere more nota-

Johnstown, in this state. Valuable as
