The city water Regulations.
The DALLEs, Or, July II, 1s9

THE DALLEs, Or, July IL, 1891.
EDITOR CHRoNICLE-In last nights
issue there appeared two "Rules Gov
erning Use of Water" Will you kindly
explain the purpose of Sec. l2? To
whom does it apply, to users of city
water, users of Academy water, or both
Is it made because of insufficient supply
or for some other reason? In place
where water rent is at least twice what
it should be some very excellent reason
ought to be given for the PRONUNCIATION
of such rule. If such an one can not be
furnished the rule should be forthwith
abolished. Yours Truly,

DUFUR, July IL, 1891.
EDITOR CHRoNICLE-On our wav from
church last evening we were attracted
by the sad walls of some one in distress.
After rushing to the spot whence the
sounds arose, to our utter astonishment
found Keno" (better known az Chief
Justice of the Jack-knife circuit,) sus-
pended by the neck i'll the forks of a
walnut tree, and was compelled to call
for assistance.
The cause is unknown, but it is thought
that it was from pondering over the last
words of the minister or the small pipe
what he supported. OBSERVER

John johnson Pound Shot Through the
Head in Front OF his Cabin.
CHENowETH, Wash, July z, 1901.
EDITOR CHRoEICLE-We have had a
sensation here this week. One of our
old residents John Johnson Swede was
found near his cabin shot through the
head with change of shot and shot
gun lying under him. The coroner was
called and arrived here on Friday morn
ing and took charge of the body, and
summoned jury to find the cause of
tho death. The jurors were unable to
decide whether the shooting was ac-
cidental or intentional, but conclut ed
that he was the cause of his own death.
Mr.. Johnson was held in high esteem
for his honor and worth as citizen, and
we very much regret the loss of Il citi-
zen and friend who has been so worthy
of a place among the "honest" people of
this world. D. K. ORDwAY.

How to Dress.

Somebody has said 'sdress according to
your means" But this motto is illogical.
Probably the only persons who dress ac-
cording to their means are paupers.
Millionaires do not dress better than
clerks who earn twelve to fifteen dollars
a week-frequently not SO well. Serv-
ants very often dress better than their
mistresses There exists positive mania
for deceiving others as to our wealth and
position, and consequently the clerks and
servants live in cheap-often dirty
rooms and eat the poorest and least
nourishing food to enable them to wear
false feathers" Men and women should
dress neatly and comfortably, but ac-
cording to their station IN life as well as
means Nourish your bodies and minds
before indulging your vanity. ''Fine
feathers do not make fine birds"

HOW to Aot at rahle.

Do not eat hurriedly or bolt your
food-it is vulgar as well as being bad
for digestion. A knife should not be
held by the blade nor a fork by the
prongs. Grasp both knife and fork by
the handle, directing both by extending
the fore6nger along the backs close to
the handle. Never eat potatoes, vege-
tables or anything for that matter with
the knife blade, which was made for
cutting only; the fork was designed for
carrying food to the mouth Always be
polite and pleasant to those with whom
you are dining and endeavor to antici-
pate their wants. Do not reach across
the table for the salt, bread, etc.; if they
are not close beside you ask your neigh
Dor or servant for them politely.

How to Remove Rust from knives.

When knives OF other steel cutlery be-
come rusty they should be cleaned at
once. To remove the rust rub with a
flannel dipped in sweet oil; then cover it
with slaked lime and allow it to rest for
twenty-four hours; wipe clean and finish
off with some powdered whiting and a
chamois leather. This will make the ar
ticles as bright as new. An excellent
way to prevent steel knives and forks
rusting is to plunge the blades in pan
of whiting after washing and remove
them just before they are used. When
they are wiped they will be perfectly
bright, and if kept in this way cannot
get rusty

We are not so enamored of the knife
as to favor its use in preference to. the
fork as means of conveying ones food
to ones mouth On the contrary, we
are as much opposed to this use of the
knife as any one possibly could be- But
we hold, nevertheless, that the knife.
should not be utterly ignored at the ta-
BILE.
Where, for instance, the pie crust set
before you is excessively infIeHble there
is sort of constructive insult to your
hostess in your vain attempts to cut
through it with a fork Its toughness is
made obvious by your exertions, and in
endeavoring to cut the pie crust you
only succeed in cutting into the sensibil-.
tiles of your hostess. By using your
knife, on the contrary, your pie crust is
divided into eatable portions with neat
ness and dispatch, and its firmness of
texture is remarked by no one
We are sure that no genuine pie lover
will deny that in cutting ones pie with
ones knife and carrying it piece by piece
to the mouth by aid of the fork, ample
recognition is accorded to the demands
of etiquette; for, to thoroughly enjoy
ones pie, neither knife nor fork is neces-
sary. AS matter of fact, either is an
impertinence. The true and only salts
flying way to eat pie is to take it up in
ones hand, and by gently but firmly
pressing the pointed end of the wedge in
ones mouth to slough off its beneficence
with grateful teeth until its richness is
all your own. This is the way to enjoy
pie. But we are not talking of enjoy
ment.
Our business is with etiquette. There
fore we viii relegate the true form of
pie eating to the privacy of the cupboard,
where the hasty snack is taken. All we
insist upon in. the name of true etiquette
is that the knife should do its share of
the labor, and that the fork should not
be compelled unassisted to bear the heat
and burden of dissection.-Boston Tran

The Graduates Didn't Understand.


There are many persons who think it
about time to conduct the commence
ment exercises of Harvard university in
English instead of in Latin. The con
tinuance of the ancient custom caused
much amusement for those present, for
when President Eliot closed his Latin
remarks by inviting the senior class to
mount the platform to be presented with
their degrees, not man stirred.
When the invitation was repeated,
Chief Marshal Cumnock started up the
platform steps, but pull from behind,
given by a less sanguine classmate, was
too much for him, and he turned to go
down again. A broad motion of the
hand from President Eliot (given in Eng
lish) finally induced him to continue,
and thus the class followed to receive
their degrees. Boston Saturday Gazette.
