ttow to Make Good kontni.s.

The Bashkirs are renowned for their skill In making koumiss. or fermented mares milk, which is now extensively consumed by patients suffering from dys- peptic and wasting diseases, and so easy Is It of digestion that invalids drink ten, fifteen, and occasionally even twenty champagne bottles day, while Bashkir Is able to overcome couple of gallons at sitting, and in hour or two to be ready for more. To insure good koumiss it is essential that the mares be of the steppe breed, and fed on steppe pasture. They are milked from four to eight times day, the foal being kept apart from the mother, and allowed to suck only in the night time The mare will not give her milk, however, unless at the time of milking her foal is brought to her side, when such Is the joy of reunion that after sundry acts of loving and smelling and kissing, the maternal feeling shows itself by her sometimes giving milk from both nipples at once.
 Milking is done by the Bashkir women who. taking position close to the hind legs of the mare, rest on one knee, and on the other support pail directly under the udder. pulling at each nipple in turn, and receiving from three to four pints each time of milking To make koumiss the milk is beaten up in churn Out not sufh- ciently to produce butter). and by fermen- tation is converted after twenty four hours into weak koumiss, from which con- dition after twelve hours more 1t passes Into medium degree of strength, whilst strong koumiss is produced by assiduous agitation of the milk for two or three days, and 1t is then said to be slightly intoxica- ting.-Henry Lansdell, D.D., in Harper's Magazine.

An American Abroad.

Says an American in Lucerne: ''There are seventeen old ladies from England at my hotel at Lucerne, and all of them wear white caps. As they sit all in a row at dinner they look like the pictures I have in memory of the assembled saints of old village quilting bees All the well to do old ladies of England seem to revel in doing worsted work on the piazza of Swiss pensions. That young Englishman who sits op- posite to me at table has Mark Twain at his tongues end
 He thinks that the United States is distinguished mainly by having given birth to Mark Twain. There are two young girls at the Schweitzerhof who sing. One of them sings very well and the other thinks she sings very well; but there are those with whom her vocal pyrotechnics disagree. The great cross of the evening at the hotel is to have to sit for an hour and hypocritically applaud singing that contains no more melody than a fatal case or chronic bronchitis.

Keep the Nails in Trim.

The base of the nails presents a not Tess important field for the exercise of care and attention than the tips. No nail can be a handsome one which is overgrown and smothered at the lower portion by clinging mass of skin, often dry, split and ragged from neglect. If this condition has been allowed to con- tinue from childhood the adult person who has come to feel something of pride in his personal appearance will confront quite task in the attempt to correct the evil; but there is nothing of this sort impossible to the persistent, careful worker.
 The skin should be patiently pressed back, by degrees, till the beauty of tho well proportioned nail, with it's charm ing, pearly white crescent at the base, stands out as an adequate reward for all the effort. If a manicure set be not at hand, gentle pressure from the thumb nail of the opposite hand makes very acceptable substitute, the field of opera tions being kept in good condition by frequent bathing and rubbing, especial pains being taken to remove "hang nails" or any fragments of dry skin ad- herring to the nails themselves.-Good Housekeeping.

Excessive Ugliness in Soldiers.

Ugliness as a disqualifying cause seems intelligible in candidate for matrimony, but is certainly less so when the question is one of fitness for military service. This, however, is one on the list of dis qualifications laid down by the head of the medical department in manual just issued on "Conscription in France" Lat terly the French authorities seem to be much more liberal in admitting the claims of men who do not wish to serve. The rejections are per cent. more nu- merous than at the previous conscrip- tion. The French are looking more to the quality of their army than to the number of recruits. Excessive ugliness, says this military doctor, makes man ridiculous, prevents him from having authority over his comrades, and leaves him morbid and sensitive. If the ugli- ness be adequate the claim must be al- lowed. "Male hysteria" is another valid plea. The army doctors say it exists among French conscripts, and it is the more objectionable as it is contagious.- Cor. London Telegraph.

TOM CRUISES CAREER.
The Ups and Downs of Western
 Life.
HOW HE SOLD HIS FAMOUS MINE.
It Increased $5OO,0O0 in an HOur.-A
 Romantic Tale.

The history of the thrice millionaire banker of Helena, Mont, Thomas Cruse, illustrates the ups and downs of western life, and sets in strong contrast the two extremes of absolute, grovel- ing poverty and extraordinary af1u- ence
 ''Six years ago Tom Cruse," says Thomas M. Long, twas only a com mon, ordinary laborer, a prospector and a miner. He had spent almost his last nickel, was out of luck, and being out of money it naturally followed he had very few friends. Indeed he was so poor that I well remember the day when he was actually refused credit for a fifty pound sack of four. He did odd jobs about town-anything so long as he turned an honest dollar. One day he took a tramp into the mountains. When he came back to town he astonished everybody by re- porting the discovery of what turned out to be one of the richest silver mines in Montana
 ''He pre-empted the place and made everything solid in his own name. This mine was the famous Drum Lummond, in the mountains near Maysville, twen- ty-one miles from Helena. A syndicate of capitalists hearing of his great find went out to investigate it. The result far surpassed even their expectations, and on their way back to town they sought old man Cruse. Would he sell the mine2 Yes. How much9 Five hundred thousand dollars spot cash. That was too much, they thought. Well, gentlemen, if you think it is too much don't take it. said Cruse This offer is good until noon, but no longer. I'll have another price on it after that They thought he was blufing. The next day, after further investigation, they came back to Cruse. They told the old man they were ready to pay the $500, 900, and for him to draw up the papers.
 My price today is S1, 900, 900, boys said Cruse. Of course there was no deal possible under the circumstances. Cruse could then get all the capital he wanted to work his mine. Before three months had passed he had pulled out S200, 900 worth of ore, and there was still unlimited quantities millions, in fact-in sight. The syndicate came back to him and actually paid over $1, 900, 900 for a two-third interest in the Drum Lummond.
 ''Since that time Cruse has bought other mines, the Iron Mountain, for in stance, in the Ceur d. Alene region, and others. He is worth today S5, 900, 900. He was married a couple of years ago, but his wife died, leaving him child. Old Man Cruse, as he is called, is a good old fellow, who delights now in talking about his hard times. When he came to Montana, six years ago, he walked all the way from Salt Lake City. That's the way fortune smiles sometimes. ."-Chicago Times.

A Circassian in Battle Array.

Were war to embody itself in human shape il could find no better incarnation than the fierce. tiger like beauty of the Circassian in his battle array. with his shining helmet and ringing mail. his saber clanking at his side. and his long noun tain rife on his shoulder But even In his more peaceful dress of embroidered white tunic and sheepskin cap, loose black velvet trousers. and sash of crimson silk, there is something barbaric and warlike about his whole appearance which harmon izes only too well with the flash of his eagle eye and the stern compression of his mustached lips You can see at a glance that war and peril and bloodshed are this mans natural element, and that, when tanned and civilized he will lose not only his native picturesqueness, but even the very handspring of his existence David Rer in The Cosmopolitan

Chicago's Mayor.

This story is told by The Chicago Post on Carter H. Harrison: One of "Our Carter's" characteristics is a smooth tongue and a cultivated mind. He can charm most people with the polish and variety of his conversation. He once attended party given at the residence of leading citizen, and was there introduced to a lady who did not catch his name. She enjoyed a half hours conversation with Chicago's mayor immensely. After he had left her she asked a friend who had bowed to the gentleman: Do tell me who that delightful gentleman is with whom I have been conversing. He is per fectly charming" Why, don't you know2 That's Mayor Carter Harri- son." replied the friend 'Is that really Carter Harrison9" she said. ''Well, I declare that he looks and acts like a perfect gentleman. I thought from reading about him in the newspa- pers that he must be highway robber and a thug"

PbvsIolop,caI Efrect, of massac..

In discussion of this subject by Brit ish physicians of eminence, Dr Symons Eccles declared. as the results of his own experiments on healthy persons. from 8 combination of the various massage man. ipulations that the texture of the skin was improved, the sense of locality tn- creased. the general body temperature was raised and the free surface tempera- ture of a part under massage, became higher than that of the rest of the body, while abdominal massage decreased the surface temperature of the extremities; a course of massage of one months dura- tion increased the body weight. the appe- tite, muscular strength and ability to sleep and work well
 Dr Playfair expressed 1t as his opinion that massage is only one agent. along with overfeeding and freedom from previous surroundings. in the treatment of pro- found cases of nervous debility or malnu- triton, the exact character of which is not as yet thoroughly understood; some of the cases which were commonly accounted as incurable and were a curse to their families could, he thought, be cured by these means.-New York Tribune.

Surface Traffic In Big Cities.

Trustworthy figures, recently com piled, show the mileage of street car track in the United States and Canada to be nearly 5000. Horse railways oc- cupy 5,902, electric railways 1,753, dunn my lines 556 and cable lines Al. The number of electric roads now in opera tion is 264 against A cable roads. Some idea of the enormous proportions to which the street railroad traffic has at tained can be gained from the fact that in one city, St. Louis, the whole popula- tion is carried no times year by the street cars, and in the state of New York the statistics of the surface railways for the year ending September, 1889, show that the whole population of the state was carried nearly sixty times. If to the surface lines were added the ele- vated roads, the number of trips per in- dividual would be over eighty.-New York Sun .-

Two Paris Weddings.

Mile. Jeanne Hugo, granddaughter of the celebrated poet, is betrothed to M. Leon Daudet, son of the novelist, AL phonse Daudet. The fancee, who is very handsome-her dowry also-is just 20, and the young man is three years her senior and a promising member of the medical profession. For long time the youthful Leon, whose wonderful mon- key tricks made him the talk of Paris, was the boon companion of M. Georges Hugo, and both have been sketched in Daudet's recent books-pranks, talk, appearance and all. Another projected union in the world of letters is that of M. Paul Bourget, whose ''Coeur de Femme" is having such an immense sale, and who is affianced to Mile. Min nie David, the daughter of an American merchant residing in Paris.-Exchange.

Paper Manufacture and 1t. Methods.


 The Chinese are supposed to have been the inventors of paper They used rice straw or rags of cotton or linen for making their paper stock Modern nations fol lowed their example but made few i'm provements on the ancient process until within the last forty years Since then every decade has witnessed great advances in this industry New methods. processes, and machinery have been devised. new materials brought into use. and new and multifarious forms of the manufactured product now enter into the economies of modern life Rags are gathered in all parts of the world and brought by ship loads to the United States but they are no longer the chief raw material Paper 6bers are obtained from old rope, jute butts. straw of the various grains. from many grasses and reeds, and from the wood of cypress. pine. poplar, spruce, hemlock, basswood. sycamore and other trees Now great mills prepare the fiber stock for paper manufacturers who buy 1t by the ton, in bulk. and then work 1t into whatever shapes their business re- quires As it costs far less to carry chemicals to the forests than it would to transport the logs, wood pulp establish ments are generally located near eources of supply
 The chief chemicals are lime, potash, soda ash, and caustic soda These alkalies. dissolved in water to make the cooking liquids, have been employed In huge wooden tanks, in which, because the tenn perature could not be carried above boil ing heat. it was necessary to continue the cooking from two to three days The progress of invention has recently made it possible to greatly reduce the time re- quired for this pur pose The demand for paper in all forms for old and new uses is unlimited, and is daily increasing In no part of the globe is there a greater variety of vegetable 6bers than in the south. whose cane brakes. swamps, for ests and cotton fields can furnish mex haustible quantities for all time The cotton plantations alone could probably supply every pulp mill in American with a material cheaply gathered and handled, and containing a long. strong. beautiful Journal of Commerce.

ninhtheria from Poultry.

In Skiatos. one of the Grecian isles, there has been no case of diphtheria for over thirty years until the summer of 1881. when a child died of the disease, and in the course of five months there were over 100 cases. with thirty six deaths, in a community of about 4,000 Careful investigations of the origin of the epidemic resulted in tracing it to flock of infected turkeys received from Salon ica and which on examination showed unlnistakable evidence of the diphtheria process Dr Paulilis. the reporter (Bul- letin Medical) coniluded from this ex- perience that the diphtheria of the ord mary barn yard fowls was similar in it's course and symptoms to the disease oc- curing in man. and that Ii could be car ried from the one to the other, sometimes through the medium of the air.-Chicago News
