THE CLANS LOOKED GOOD.


She Thought They Were Intended For In
ternal Application.
sHope y amt got the toothache,
mum?" said the fish man the other day
to Jersey City girl, at whose house he
was delivering some oysters. The fish
man spoke in compassionate tones, for
the girl was sitting forlornly in chair,
with both hands pressed convulsively
to the sides of her face.
mo, not the toothache, she moaned,
only horrible sore throat that is a
thousand times worse than any tooth
ache ever could be-"
is that alp replied the fish man.
why, If you'll listen to my advice,
you'll have that all cured in no time
do tell me how" exclaimed the girl,
land I'll be forever grateful to YOU"
sThere amt nothing easier" said the
fish man, than to cure a sore throat.
You can get rid of it in no time. All
you have, to do is to get.a raw clam and
bind it over on the place where the sore
ness is, and it will jest move out and
not leave any sign of ever havin' been
there. Raw CLAIMS are great fur 6ph-
liberia, too. My boss cured q case of
diphtheria, mum, with raw clans APP
piled outside, that the doctors had given
up. That's the truth, that is, and adj
wise you to try couple Of 'em on your
sore throat"
well, if they'll do any good, wish
you'd send me round a couple said the
girl, land I'll give them trial :,
THAT l will, mum, and I'm sure
they'll fix You up"
The fish man did as he promised. He
selected two extra plump CLANS, opened
them carefully, and sent them round to
the house. A few DAYS later, having ee-
casion to leave an order at the house,
he asked the girls mother if his CLAIMS
had done her daughters sore throat any
good.
why, to ten you the TRUTH replied
the mother, ''shc did not apply them in
the way you advised. She said they
looked SO appetizing that she could not
resist the temptation, and then ate
them. IN. Y. Sun.

HOW FINNISH PEASANTS BATTLE.

They Beat Each Other With Little
Brooms and Then Roll in the SNOW.
In the neighborhood of every little
settlement stands low, Imprinted log
house, consisting of one room, with
tiny door and window. Within stones
are piled. and being heated, water is
then poured over them, creating the
steam bath, into which whole families
Immediately gather, each member car
rying little rod or broom, with which
they beat one another.
The bath is the most important func-
ton, partaking of religious signifi-
canoe, since it is unlawful to attend the
church services on the following day
unpurified, and thus every Saturday
afternoon in the year is devoted to the
bath. Not infrequently in winter the
peasants rush out quite naked from the
bath and roll themselves vigorously in
the snow.
In certain parts of Russia the peas
ants are content to take their vapor
bath in the household oven in which
the bread is baked! And in both coun-
tries the big whitewashed brick stove,
occupying about third of the room
space, generally comprising the entire
house, is the favored spot on which
children and their elders love to huddle
for siestas or the long sleep of these far
Northern nights. IN. Y. Journal
