Our Huge Internal Commerce.

Statistics of our internal commerce have never been accurately collected. but it has been estimated that the do- nfestic produce moved and exchanged in this country last year amounted in value to S25, 900, 900, 900. The annual river commerce of Cincinnati is valued at more than $50, 900. 900. The ton mage that passes up and down the De- troit river annually Is greater than that which enters the port of Liverpool. The number of vessels that enter and clear at Chicago exceeds every year by 1000 the number of those that enter and clear in New York. The tonnage passing through the Sault Ste. Marie in 1890 exceeded that passing through the great Suez canal by 1, GOO, 900 tons. Our lake, river and coastwise tonnage amounts to nearly 4,000, 900. The present marvellous cheapness of water transportation is of inestimable value to the people in enabling that trans portation to compete with railroads and to regulate their charges. Natur- ally the demand for the improvement of the lake harbors, of connecting streams and canals, and of the im- mense water-courses of this country has increased in its Importantly with the increase of this commerce.; but the increasing appropriations in the river and harbor bills are not even yet one half as large as the amounts proposed by the engineer board.-Senator Frye.

The Superior Cape Cod Poke.

What are you givin' us?" yelled a down town grocer in an excited way. Tuesday, to ap Auburn friend who had just slam-bangcd his hat down on his head and whirled him around so vio- lently that he fell on potato barrel ard skinned his elbow.
 '1'm taking boxing lessons" said his friend, and that's the marine swing"
 That's it, is itpn said the grocer, as he grabbed the Auburn man, damned him under a meat bench, kicked the visible portion of his anatomy and hit him hard with Q broom. How do you like thatp That's the Cape Cod poke, otherwise known as pot luck Next time you come round with your new tricks just remember that there's few of us old ones left who knew a twister or two when we were young"

Hints to Housekeepers.

Long bags, tie full length of dress or cloak, with hanging loops at top, save creasing as well as from dust and moths.
 When making white cakes, use one half teaspoon more of cream tartar than soda, as this extra quantity of cream of tartar makes the egg white stiffer.
 Castor oil may be comfortably taken in hot milk, in a half-wineglass of weak punch, in hot water sweetened and highly favored with essence of peppermint or wintergreen.
 Salt makerel should be well washed in tepid water, the thin, black skin on the inside scraped out, the head and tail cut off, and the fish soaked skin side up over night in a large pan full of cold water.
 Very thick cream should be beaten with a fork. As fast as the froth is beaten skim it of. To mold whipped cream add dissolved gelatine; one third of 0 box to one pint of thin cream, before whipping, is good proportion, to which other in- gredients, as sugar and flavoring, are to be added.
 An authority counsels us to wipe our faces upward after washing them, partic- ularly when the evil days draw nigh that bring those first indications of age-wrin- kles--on the lower part of the face. By using invariably the upward motion in drying, these wrinkles will be gently re- moved, and with it the tendency to undue fullness about the chin.

The Poultry Pen.

It will be good plan to mark the eggs intended for batching when they are laid SC that track can be kept of their age.
 Young turkeys are voracious eaters, and almost anything in the line of animal or vegetable diet will not come amiss.
 The meat scraps from the table can al- ways be used to a good advantage in making up good variety to feed the poul- try.
 If you have one or two good breeds of fowls it will be better to work to improve them than to be seeking after something new.
 Even with young poultry it will be best to feed all of the fattening food they will eat for a few. days before sending to market.
 If turkeys are fed only once a day let it be in the morning, rather than at night; with good range they generally have full crops at night.
 Ducks are easily matched, and if prop erly managed are easily raised, more so than either turkeys or chickens, and they are an excellent table fowl
 The age at which chickens should be marketed depends upon the price. Some times it is best to sell them young, while at others it will pay to feed until they are better matured

Teach the Horse to stand.

A spirited horse that has never been taught to stand except when secured to the rack is dangerous animal to drive. Perhaps next to becoming un- manageable from fright this cause is the source of more accidents and in- convenience than any other bad traits found among horses. Such horse is in constant danger of running away while the driver, after untying him. steps back to enter the vehicle, or in passing through gate when he tries to close it. Instances can be recalled where life was endangered in this way, for the horse either wheeled suddenly before the reins could be secured or in the confusion they were tossed out of reach of the driver.
 Bad habits among horses can best be broken before the animals are very old, for it requires much more perse- verance to reform an old horse than it does to prevent young one from needing reforming. The horse should understand that tOhoG means to stop whether the driver enforces the order by drawing the reins or not.

Trials of Q Teacher.

The school teacher is very poorly paid for his wearisome work of impart- ing wisdom to his pupils, if many of his pupils are like one described in the following dialogue. Tho boy found il difficult to understand simple arithme- tic:
 Teacher-Suppose Fritz, you have a stocking on one foot and you put another stocking on the other foot how many would you have on both feetp
 Boy--I never wear no stockings.
 Suppose. your father has one pig fin pen, and he buys another pig and puts it in the pen, how many pigs will there be in the pen?"
 Dad don't keep no pigs"
 The teacher blew heavy sigh from his tired lips, wiped the precipitation from his scholastic brow, and went at 1t again with renewed courage.
 Suppose you have one jacket and at Christmas your father makes you a present of another jacket how many jackets will you have then?"
 He ain't that kind of a father. He never gives nothin' for Christmas.
 Suppose your mother gives you one apple and you have one already, what will you have thenp'
 "Stomachache. Our apples are cookin' apples"
 The teacher was not the man to be discouraged by trifes. He began to suspect that the boy was not we'll up in arithmetic, but he resolved to make one more effort, so he said:
 'If a poor little beggar boy has a cake, and you give him one more, how many will he have?"
 Il dunno. l eat my own cakes"
 Then the teacher told the children to go out and play.-Texas Siftings.

Eire-PrOof Shingles.

The Scientific American gives the farmers directions for preparation or paint to apply to shingles of roof, to preserve the shingles, and as a guard against fire. In other words he is about to build q home, and wishes to dip or paint the shingles with some kind of paint that will both preserve them and be proof against catching fire from sparks. Dissolve in barrel of hot water sulphate of zinc, 20 lbs. alum, 20 ibs.; caustic potash, 8 ibs. manganide oxide, lbs., and add sul- phuric acid, 8 lbs. Pack the shingles loosely in another barrel and fill with the liquid, holding the shingles under the mixture. Fill up the first barrel also with shingles, soak for three hours and pile to dry. and repeat until all the shingles are fireproofed. After the house is shingled paint with oxide of iron of paint, tempered with other mineral color in boiled linseed oil, and mixed to suit your taste as to shade of color.

HE WON TIE CASE.
A lawyers Pathetic Plea for Children
 that Did Not Exist.

Mfr. McSweeny was thorough stu dert of human nature, and master of the art of observation. Nothing es- cared his notice. While engaged up- on case he watched the jury as a cat watches a mouse, and frequently as tonished his clients by ending his arguments very abruptly and submit ting the matter to the jury.
 The peculiarity of the great criminal lawyer was well shown at murder triM in San Francisco few years ago.
 MT. McSweeny appeared for tES de- fendant.
 The state apparently had made out very clear case against the prisoner.
 When Mir. McSweeny arose to make his address to the jury he carefully avoided any reference to the facts set forth in the evidence or the laws gov- erning them. He pointed out the ter rible responsibility resting upon the twelve men who were sitting in judg- ment upon the life of ono of their fel- low citizens. He added that the yer dict of guilty. would not fall heaviest upon the prisoner, but upon his family. He asked the jury to think for mo- ment of the effect of an adverse ver- dict upon the wife and little ones of the prisoner.
 Then the speaker drew a word-pic- ture, which was a marvel of artistic rhetorical work. He brought before the eyes of the jurymen the home of the accused man. He showed the patient and loving wife leaving her work to cast many an anxious glance down the road to see if her husband was yet in sight, eager to be the first to catch a glimpse of his figure in the distance that steaming supper might await him upon his arrival. He pict- ured three ruddy-faced little children swinging upon the old gate, waiting till papa should come home to them again.
 At this point the lawyer noticed that one of the jurymen--a bluff old west erner-had considerable difficulty in swallowing large lump which choked him, and that there was suspicious moisture in his eye.
 The speaker paused. Turning to- ward the juror, he held out both hands as little child might have done to its father, and said in a tone that was scarcely audible:
 Gentlemen, you must send him home to them.n
 Shifting uneasily in his seat the juror blurted out:
 "Yes, by, we'll do it, too"
 McSweeny instantly sat down. The case was won. His client was acquitted. But the most interesting point in this case perhaps, was the fact which the lawyer afterward learned-that the prisoner at the bar was an unmarried man.--Chicago Mail.

Breaking It Gently.

Mir. Trotter (to himselD As I will be at the office until o'clock this evening, l guess I'll send Alice Q tele- gram explaining matters"
 As he enters the house at 10 o'clock, his wife of month throws herself into his arms. "Oh Tom" she weeps, holding out yellow envelope, this horrid telegram came this morning, and I've been afraid to open 1t lest it should contain bad news! What in the world has delayed you so?"-Judge.
