~ EASONS, like advice, are not al
- ways needed, but the observance
Nof some we offer to-day would be
for you a money-saving experiment If
acted on.
FIRST-Are you housekeeper? Do
you expect to be? or would you be If
the way and the means were at your
disposal to start? In any case visit to
our stores would interest you.
WHY?
Because everything necessary Tor
housekeeping purposes, from the kitch-
en- utensils to the parlor suite, can be
obtained there.
Because full value in quality, sub
stantially-made stock, is given for the
money.
Because with full value and good
quality are given long terms Of credit,
with easily-arranged payments, which
make buying goods for housekeeping a
possibility.

don't know exactly how to start to fur

leads them into costly excuses which
they afterwards regret.
II beginners come to US and permit
us to suggest as they go about the selec-
ton of their purchases, we will save
them money and annoyance-Our ex-
periencs in the business enables US to
do this and our greater aim is to satisfy
our customers, not for the present. but
for all time-Many of our customers

A Fox-Terrier's Family Of Kittens.

Not long .since George Bassford, Of
Vacavile CAL, placed coyote pup with
;be litter of a greyhound and the foxy
beast waxed and lourshed.
Instances are on record where wolves
have nurtured hounds, bears have sue
cored children, lions have tenderly cared
for the young of human beings, but it
has been reserved for this later day to
see a fox-terricr adoptinga nest of kit
tens.
If there are natural born enemies, they
are fox.terriers and cats.
Yet John Reagan, at Il Pacific street,
owns a fox-terrier, Nellie, which has be-
come foster-mother to a lot of kittens
bcreaved, by reason of infringement OF
the tire of vegetable wagon wheel upon
their purring mother. Nellie has adop-
ted the cats, after raising and sending
out on an anti-fcline crusade lot of fox
terriers of pronounced antipathies. She
anxiously watches over her sightless,
sharp-clawed waits and is Jealous OF
their welfare. If one is removed little
she nips it by the neck and carries it
lack to the nest. If stranger comes
near the terrier is all roughcd IN a mo-
ment, and threatens with all the cmpAa-
sis of her diminutive body.-SaH Fran

Two Military Giants.

Comparatively few persons know that
the Worth monument in Madison Square,
besides being monument to the "brav-
est of the brave" whom "amor patrlg
ducit." is a tombstone as well. But it
is William Jenkins Worth, a gallant
and successful soldier, sleeps underneath
the obelisk whereon his battles are sculp-
tured. and hundreds of thousands to
whom the monument is a daily sight
know nothing of the man to whom ii
was raised. At one time Worth wa;
aide to General Scott; Scott was six feet
four inches in height, Worth six feet two
inches. Scott admits that he considered
himself handsome; Worth was acknow-
ledped to be the handsomest man in the
army. A glorious sight the two giants
must have made as they walked in the
gorgeous uniforms of half century ago
down Broadway to army headquarters,
or sauntered among the bloods and fair
ladies of those days.-NeU York Sun.

Return Of Painted Glass.

In Italy painting on glass is beginning
to flourish again, aud to prove this we
have only to remember the grand win
dows recently painted for the beautiful
church of San francesca, Of Slena. The
paintings, which are being done at the
Royal Institute of Muncheu, in Bavaria,
are stupcndous. Still, whether in Italy
or in the rest of Europe, we are still far
from reaching the perfection of the
ancient Italian churches; for example,
the windows Of San Francesca di Assist,
which are reputed the most beautiful in
the world. The painting on glass leaves
me no time to mention the affairs OF
Abyssinia and Of his majesty Menelek IL,
which form the delight of the Italian
parliament Chicago Post.

Parauuayan Types and Manners.

At Rosario de Santa Fe we take on
board some rough recruits, under the
conduct of three dirty soldiers, accom-
panied by their women folk aud children,
to whom quarters were assigned on the
upper deck abaft the beam. These re-
cruits are, l am informed, jail-birds and
criminals, who, instead of being kept in
prison, are sent to do duty in the from
tier corps at Formosa, in the Gran
Chaco, and to keep the Indians at bay
when necessary. The soldiers, it ap-
pears, seize every opportunity OF desert
ing, and the runeways now form bands
of hrigands far more dangerous than the
Indians. Several engineers whom | met,
who had BEEN engaged in various rail-
way surveys aud expeditions in the
Chaco, reported that they were constant
ly molested by these brigands, but very
rarely had any trouble with the Indians.
The system of criminal recruits is Of
course bad, but perhaps it is the only
practical way of getting men for the
wild frontier service, where pillage takes
the place of pay. The recruits aud
their escort formed a picturesque group
with their varied costume and their
more varied skins, ranging from white
through bronze to absolute African
black. The women were Indians, it be-
ing the Argentine usage in warfare
against the aborigines to kill OIL the
men. and distribute the captive women
as wives for the troops. The only bag
gage that these creatures had consisted
of ponchos, guitar, an accordion, and
several kettles aud gourds for making
mate. or Paraguayan tea, which they
drank from morning until night. Our
ENGLISH tourist and his wife were very
much scaudalized az the dirty ways OF
these soldiers, and particularly at the
manner in which the women washed the
children. taking a mouthful of water,
then splitting the water into their hands
and rubbing it over the faces. This op-
Grafton is constantly seen in South
America amongst Indians and cross
breeds. The idea is that only barbar
GUS whites wash in cold water. Hold.
inc the water in the mouth for few
seconds is the easiest way Of warming 1t.
The Englishman's younger brother was
also greatly scandalized because the mil
itary officer who shared his cabin slept
in his clothes, did not wash at all, did
not even own a toothbrush, aud carried
all his baggage in a hat-box. "Cos-
tumbre del pals" explained to him
the custom of the country.-HrperS

Male and Female Asparaqus.

1t has been ascertained by recent ex-
periments with male and female asparagus
plants that the male plants gave an
average Of fifty per cent. more yield than
the female and the shoots were also larger
and the crop earlier. 1t was found that
the differences in yield were greater in
the early part of the season than in the
latter part. Male plants can be secured
for a certainty by the division OF old
plants, or better, by the selection from
two -year.old Seeding of such as do not
bear seed. 1t has been contended for
long time by growers that there was
difference in profit between the two, and
these experiments which have proved it
to be a fact are timely.-Florida Times

The Bagpipe.

The bagpipe is almost universal through
out Asia, though at present not so much
in use as it seems to have been in former
ages. 1t is used among the Chinese
musicians, and is met with in Persia,
where it appears to have been more
general in former ages than at present.
There is also Hindoo baggage, and in
Egypt it was used to some extent, but
it is now rarely met with. In Italy it is
common. 1t is said that the Italian
peasant believes that it is the best be-
loved music of the Virgin Mary; also that
it is the instrument upon when the shep-
herds expressed their JOY when they
visited the Savior. When the Italian
peasant visits Rome on the anniversary of
the birth of our Savior he always carries
his bagpipe with him. The Romans are
said to have been acquainted with this
instrument, and most likely the Greeks
also. In Scotland it is the national in
strument, but even there its use is dying

Curn for Round Shoulders.

Round shoulders are almost unavoid-
ably accompanied by weak lungs, but
may be cured by the simple and easily
performed exercise Of raising ones sell

ular position, several times daily. Take
a perfectly upright position, with the
heels together and the toes at an angle oil
forty-fve degrees. Drop the arms hfe-
less at the sides, auimating and raising
the chest to its full capacity muScuarly,
the chin well drawn in. Slowly rise up
on the balls of the feet to the greatest
possible height, thereby exercising all
the muscles of the legs and body; come
again into standing position without
swaying the body backward out OF the
perfect line. Repeat the exercise, first
on one foot, then on the other. --Ne'o
