NYE's NoTARIAL BOND.
The HumorIst Tells the Truth About
the Matter.

1t was at this time also that | was
chosen by the governor to act as no.
tary public. The appointment was
wholly unsought on my part. When
went to bed at night had no more
idea that would be a notary public
in the morning than the reader has.
1t was case where the office sought
the man and not the man the office. |
held this position for six years, and
no one can say that in that time
did a wrong official act as notary
public. My seal cost me So, and in the
six years that held the office lswore
eighteen men at twenty-five cents
each, two of whom afterward paid me.

as notary public. | do not know
why, exactly, for the fees were my

O. boot and shoe man whom Twill call
Quidd, and we were on friendly terms.
l bought my boots of him, and
scorched the heels thereof on his stove
on winter evenings, when times were
dull and the wintry blast outside re-
duced the profits in the cattle busl-
ness.
l casually iasked Mr.. Quidd to sign
my bond as notary public, and told
him what q sinecure it would be for
him; but to my astonishment his
chin quivered, his eyes grew dim with
unshed tears, as he told me, with his
hand trembling in mine, that he
wished he could, but that he had
promised his dying mother, Just as
the light of the glory world lighted up
her eyes, that he would never sign a
bond or note with any one.
l said: "Do not mind this, Mr..
Quidd; it is triAing matter. Others
will sign. l will get some compara-
tive stranger to sign with me. Do
not feel badly over it." On the way
home l got Edward Ivinson, General
Worth, Otto Gramm, Henry Wagner,
Abraham Idleman, Charles Kuster,
DR.. Harris, William H. Root
and James Milton Sherrod,
the squaw-man of the But
falo Wallow, to sign my bond.
All of these were men of probity and
property, and the bond was said to
be the best notarial bond that was
ever aoated in Wyoming.
On the following day case in my
court as justice OF the peacerequired a
bond on the part of saloon-keeper,
and he went out moment to get a
surety. He was hardly out OF the Of
fee before he returned with the name
of Mr.. Quidd. After that l bought my
boots elsewhere, could not trust a
man who would so soon forget his
promise to his dying mother. Years
have flown by, and gray hairs have
come on the head ofMr Quidd, though
IhaYen't gray hair yet, and may
not have for years, but have always
purchased my boots elsewhere-From

HOW TO COLOR YOUR PIPE.

Don't Smoke Too Fast, Let Your
Bowl Cool off Repeatedly, Avoid
Sudden Chill.
To color a meerschaum properly
Is an art. In the first place one must
smoke it slowly and only just fast
enough to keep the tobacco burning
without overheating the bowl. AS
soon as have smoked one pipeful of
tobacco let the pipe get cool again.
In this way I shall eventually give to
the whole a delicately shaded tint,
so writes some one to the Washing.
ton Star. Only careless smoker
will permit the bowl of his pipe to get
scorched around the edge. Further
more new pipe should never be
smoked out of doors in cold weather,
nor laid on cold marble or glass, as
the chill is apt to crack the meersch-
aum. Meerschaum would not color
at all but for the fact that it is boiled
in wax. If used in it's natural state
it would quickly become soiled, the
material being so porous that it
absorbs the slightest moisture from
the hand or anythingsit comes in con-
tact with. But the wax fills up the
pores and gives the meerschaum a
sort of enamel. A pipe that has been
spoiled by overheating so that it will
not color can be reboiled in wax and
restored to some extent. This kind
of work is done in the trade by ex-
perts, for it requires great skill.
Wien is the greatest center for meer-
schaum carving which has attained q
very high artistic development. The
raw material comes in such odd shapes
that much skill is exercised in obtain
ing from each piece pipe that shall
be as large and well shaped as possible,
The rough block is first soaked in
water to make it soft, when it can be
cut as readily as cheese, After the
carving is completed the final polish.
