His Scarfpin Barker.

A mepber of one of the uptown
clubs caused something of sensation
in the smoking-room of his club few
nights ago. says the n. Y. Times. As
he joined a group of gentlemen it was
noticed that he wore a unique pin in
his scarf.
1t was large dogs head made of
oXidized silver. Its eyes were tiny
diamonds and its mouth red enamel.
While the wcarer's friends were looking
ut the pin aud commenting upon it the
red mouth of the silver dog opened and
succession of sharp barks issued
thercfrom.
The effect was startling at first, but as
the barking continued several members
of the club pressed about the owner of
the pin, curious to examine THE new
trick" The wearer of the decoration.
after enjoying the sensation that he had
created for Il while. unbuttoned his
waistcoat and disclosed a long rubber
tube attached 10 the pin on the under
side of the scarf.
The tube extended down into one of
the pockets of the gentleman's trouS-
crS, terminating in 4 rubber bulb. BY
repeatedly pinching the bulb the
wearer OF the pin was able 10 cause the
sounds that issued from the dogs
mouth. Thus does the Yankee mind
triumph again.

Hints for Maintaining Health.

When the health is fairly good, and
there is no special strain to be put up
on the system, the normal appetite
max be trusted to Indicate the kind
aud quantity Of food necessary to MAIN
tain that condition. Naturally the
appetite varies with the changing sea-
sons, and unless it indicates an IN
reasonable extreme of indulgence or
abstinence, no attention need be paid
10 any other monitor. Much harm is
done by injudicious or meddlcsome
friends suggesting that person is too
stout or too thin, too pale or too ruddy,
and serious disturbances of the system
often follow the miscellaneous advice to
take some bitters or pills or refrain
from fattening food or drink. Paying
attention to any of these fads is like
playing with fire. If YOU are i'll
enough TO seem to warrant any radical
change Of diet or any application of
medicine. consult yonr physician ut
once. Above all. avoid advertised
Quack medicines. To use the opinion
of successful dealer in them. whose
bank balance is more liberal than his
conscience, they are made To sell
Ii YOU feel little deblitated take
the cocoa tonic; cat plenty of fresh ripe
fruit and vegetables. especially oranges;
drink lemonade; and when unusually
faiiTued, aud just before retiring
drink glass of milk as hot as can be
taken, in large sips. Walk reason
ably, aud sleep in pure air. If few
days of this sort of home treatment
fail to bring up the body and mind to
their proper tone. call in your doctor
and follow his advice. Juliet COrS0n,

Long Distance Laughter.

Did YOU ever laugh by telegraph
Probably not. 1T would hardly pay.
When one reflects that it would cost a
cent or two per chuckle to express his
sense of amusement, he rcfrains from
manifcsting it and lets it 90.
But laughing is done by telegraph.
1t is the telegraph operators who in
dulge in this luxury, and mostly the
night operators. who have more time
than the day people. When an oper-
ator becomes lonely and his saunders
are clicking out messages not intended
for him he calls up some friend oper-
ator, maybe hundred squares away,
and opens Il conversation.
A conversation, of course, cannot be
continued long before something
funny" is said. 1t ;hen becomes the
duty OF the operator to laugh. This
he does by making four dots. then one
dot and dash, thus. 49,. >. -,
plies ia, Ia. SOmcjunts. TO make
it easier, he says hi, that Is, four
dots and two dots.
The laugh by telegraph is necesSar-
lily cold and sardonc. 1t does not
bubble irresistibly to the surface. 1t
is the result of deliberate purpose.
When one has sufficient self-control to
laugh i'll this way probably his tribute
to your joke is not what you would de-
sire. But the operator is often shaken
with laughter before shaking his key
with it, so to speak.
Telegraph operators have few
other comversationale expressions. among
them Inn" four dots and Two daShes,
indicating surprise. --Indiaaap0IiS Nel0s.

The Argentine Capital.

Those readers of Harper's Magazine
who chance to reside in the city of
Buenos Avres will not be undulv fiat
tered by Theodore Child's impressions
of The Argentine Capitar' as record
ed in his article in recent number of
that periodical. At the close of his en-
tertaining description of the South
American metropolis. lie says in his
usual fearless and impartial manner:
The impression that the city and its
sociological phenomena make upon
one is wholly. and repeatedly that of
coarse and brutal materialism. There
seems to be no poetry, no sentiment,
no generosity in the life of its citizens;
there is nothing amiable, witty, or at
tractive in the exterior aspect of men
and of things. On the one hand you
see the race for wealth in all the crud-
ity of INSCRIPTIONS speculation and
cynical malversation of public funds;
and on the other hand, the ostentatious
display of wealth in the grossest mani
festations of vulgar luxury"

A 'Longshoreman's Modesty.

You would hardly believe what
silly ideas some rough. uneducated
men have about propriety," said the
nurse to n Y Tribune man. as she
smoothed ont the pillow and re-
arranged tae bed-coyers with gentle
ness and a dsxteritv that recalled to
the patient the ministering hand of
mother to a sick boy. Il recollect
nursing big 'Iong~horeman when I
was in the hospital who had an idea of
chiyalry which. mistaken and nonsen-
steal though it was, yet was refreshing
in one of his class. He had been in
some drunken fight in a low grog-shop
near the river. and had received a
uumbe of bad wounds. His antag-
onist had cut right for his heart. and
had made three or four gaping slashes
in his chest.
THE injured man was one of the
best built men | ever saw. and if his
chest had not been padded with thick
muscles he would have been murdered
outright. As il was he was in criti-
cal condition. and only the best care
and treatment could save his life. The
surgeons dressed his wounds the first

whose name was Jackson, the next
day. and began TO lay back the covers
of the bed.
"'What are You doing?' he asked.
Il am going to dress your wounds,
| answered
"'You-a lady" he said in astonish-
ment.
'"Of course; come, no nonsense |
went on, for he had grasped the cover
in his weak hands and was trying to
prevent my laying it back. l tried to
argue with him, but he blushed and
said doggedly that he wouldn't let
lady dress his wounds. | told him he
would die if he didn't let me take care
OF him. but he said he didn't care if lie
did, so had to send for the surgeon.
After several days the patient was
persuaded to let me dress the wounds.
but he turned crimson when he barred
his chest for me, although he had to
expose little more than Il society
woman does when she wears Il ball
gown. Well. the 'longshoreman got
well, aud since then | have been con-
vlnced that the coarscst men are not
without instincts OF gentility."

HOW SOLDIERS DRESS.
Indian Fighters Pay Very Little Attention
to Their Clothes.

When fighting the Indians the sold
icrS pay but little attention to the
clothes they wear, SAYS the n. Y
JOHr1iat, and to the inexperienced man
of the east private would hardly be
recognized rs ope of Uncle Sans gal
liant army should he run across him ac-
cidentaliy.
When the soldiers start out on an
Indian campaign the bright blue uni
form Is usually discarded for suit of
brown goods. very much like the cloth
of which ovcrallS are made.
Tue regulation army cap is discarded.
and IN lis place grayish SLOUGH hat is
substituted. which is much easier on
the head, and protects the eyes from
the glare Of the sun.
The soldiers take Il great pride in
their uniforms. and not only when
fighting. but when on long marches do
they don the brown suit which does not
show the dirt. and they wouldn't care if
it did.
1t is impossible to keep blue uni
form looking halfway decent half a
days march being quite sufficient to
make IT look rs though it had been
worn for years.
The officers as We'll rs the privates
wear the Slouch hat and a regiment
out IN the Indian country. under auv
circumstances, presents very UNIQUE
appearance.
At a distance an officer looks about
the same Is private. except that he
has no qua. aud especially in winter
time II Is difficult To distinguish them.
Everybody years the warmest
clothes he can find regardless of uni
form Ii soldier has buffalo coat
he j. very liable to wear it if the mer-
curry Is Sauntcring down about twenty
or thirty degrees below zero.
Another rather unique affair worn
by the soldiers is what is called the
California overShoes. They are moth
ing more nor less than a large piece.
Of Jutc tied up over the foot and leo
and rs high up rs the knee This is a
great guard against the snow and cold.
and the soldiers prefer it to anything
else they can iiud.
About the neck is worn a handker-
Chief tied in 4 simple knot. which.
among the cavalrymen invariably
Jolts around to the back Of the collar
though originally tied i'm front.
In cold weather another handker-
chief Is tied over the head aud ears
and tied in knot under the chin. The
sIouch hat is held on by string
usually tied to the band aud then
brought down through holes on either
side OF The brim and passed under the
back Of The head
In company of 100 men almost
every style OF rough costume imagine
able can be seen, most of which are
covered with grease aud dirt. The
more grease the better. Is it is said not
until tie old brown oyeralis are well
smeared with all sorts Of truck do they
become really warm, aud they never
