The Erotherless Girl.

The girl without brother is especially
to be pitied. She is the girl who is never
certain of getting the pleasures of life
unless she is very attractive. Of course
she has no brother who she is certain
will take her everywhere; she is apt to
get little bit vain, for she has no
brother to tell her, as only a brother
will, of her faults and mistakes. 1t is
only the somewhat doubtful tact of a
brother that announces, 81 wouldn't
walk up the street with you in that
frock," and the girl whose brother says
this to her may be certain that he is only
expressing the opinion of other girls
brothers. He may not do it in the most
gentle way, but he does tell the truth,
and if you ask him why paying visit to
another girl is more desirable than to
one you know, he will sit down and look
at you, and then he will say:
"Wel,you see, it is just this way.
From the time you get there she is nice
girl who gives you pleasant welcome
and yet doesn't gush over you. She is
entertaining, and yet she has fashion
VI puIllu5 OoNA hdoUy 9OSolp VI oA1Ay Ud1h
among whoever is there. She is rest
fll sort of girl, she is not always want
ing to do something that tires you half
to death and where the game isn't worth
the candle, and when she says goodby to
you you feel certain that she is pretty
glad you came and that she will be glad
to see you another time, but that she
doesn't look upon you as the one and
only man in the world" That is the
kind of description that the brotherless
girl can't get. Then she doesn't hear Oh
men that fellow would rather not have
his sister go with. Probably the wisest
course for her to pursue is for her to
choose as her most intimate friend girl
who has wise brother; then she can
reap the benefit of his counsel.-Ruth
Ash1nore in Ladies' Home Journal.

Cures for the Blues.

Do you ever have the blues? OF course
you do. for there never yet lived a man
or woman whose soul cast no shadow.
These times of derFession, from which
we all ofus suffer more or less, are moth
ing more than the shadows cast by our
souls in the road along which we are
walking heavenward. Sunshine rays
produce shadows, and the fact that our
souls go into eclipse now and then
proves that there is sunshine just behind
us. But what do you do when you get
the blues? Do you cry or scold or NOPE:
Is it hard to live in the same house with
you while the shadow falls athwart
your way? Do the children get out of
the road when they see you coming? l
have found enc excellent cure for the
blues which mean to tell right here.
Go straight to work and dSsomething
for some one more miserable than your
self. Whatever your trouble may be,
there is always some one to be found
who has harder lot to bear. The other
day young wife was deserted by hel
husband-and taken to the hospital to face
a terrible illness, without a friend to
stand by her in her hour of need, and
with not cent to defray expenses or I'M
lock the door of the future. Suppose you
go hunt her up and offer helping hand.
Such betrayal and desertion discounts
your puffs of vapor. a mother watched
the coffin lid close the other day forever
and forever, so far as mortal time
counts, between her yearning eyes and
the face of her only boy. What is you1
transient depression compared to the
heart anguish of such grief as hers:
Don't you think it would help cure you
of the blues if you sat down and wrote
that mother a letter, or dropped in fo1
an hour or two to keep her company? Ii
seems such selfish thing to be so exclu-
sive in bearing trouble. A load shared
is load lightened, and the deepest
gloom takes on bright tint now and
then if overshone with the sunshine
OF love. Chicago Herald.

lnqulreu. Il Eve cats catch i've rats IN
FIVE days. how many cats viii it take to
catch 10o rats in 100 days." Every an.
sEer was given. from 100 cats to 100, 900
cats, until il happened to occur to some
one that if FIVE cats caught rat day
there was nothing to prevent their con.
tinuing to do so till the end of time il
their patience and the rats held out. But
before this conclusion was reached over
ten dollars had changed hands in bets
ON the subject, and three quarrels were
started which have not yet been settled.
Unfortunately. however, none of them

Learn a Lesson from tn. chin.man.

Chinaman is not generally credited
with much common sense. but on a wet
day on muddy streets he displays an ability
to keep his feet clean few white men csn
equal. He never seems 10 get his peculiar
looking shoes splashed. nor to take she
least trouble in picking his way across the
street. This Is really because he has iittls
or no heel on his shoes, and because be
puts his entire weight on what little heel
he has.
The fashionable man raises himself on 20
his toes and proceeds By series Of jumps,
which result in covering bis shoe tops with
mud and his clothes with splashes- II Is
too much to expect the average human be
ing to wear heelless shoe but If he would
keep his heels down when crossing q
muddy street De would find far Jess iueiina
tion 20 indulge in profanity az the expense
of those who ought 70 clean the streets. but
don't.-Interview in St. Louis Globe Dem

Electricity in Arms Making.

The electric current has been utilized
since 1889 at the small arms factory at
st. Etienne for annealing the steel wire
of which the hammer springs of the rifle,
1886 pattern, are made. These springs
are manufactured of steel wire, Z
millimeters thick, cut in lengths of 800
meters; the wire is rolled spirally, and a
current Of twenty-three amperos is
passed through it. Heating is rapidly
effected; when it is judged sufficient the
circuit is closed, and the hammer spring
is dropped into water tank.
One man can anneal twenty springs
in three minutes, equivalent to about
400 per day. Electric annealing being
clean in operation and cheap Will no
doubt soon be applied in numerous cases
analogous to the one indicated-Boston

A High Priced Stamp.

The highest priced postage stamp in
existence is the famous Dundee stamp,
worth $500, and not purchasable at
that price. James Chalmers, of Dundee,
was the inventor of the adhesive postage
stamp in 1884. The stamp is in the pos
session of Sigmund Friedl, an extensive
postage stamp merchant of Inter Dol
berg, Vienna. 1t was exhibited at the
Vienna Jubilee Stamp exhibition. The
postage stamp museum, held on May %,
1891, at Vienna, displayed this gem as
the greatest attraction among 5000. 900
stamps and other objects exhibited there.

Brideet's Dilemma.

A newly arrived domestic was secured
to do homework by an up town family
in Lewiston. In the course of her duties
she was told 10 iron some clothes and
hang them upon the horse. A little later
the maid appeared before her mistress
with the clothes in her hands and look
Of manifest perplexity on her face.
"Why didn't you hang the clothes
upon the horse, Bridget" inquired the
latter.
Sure, an I tried to, ma'am, but he
kept nlovin, SO he did, an they wouldn't
stay"
Sure enough, knowing no other horse
in her native land, she had gone to the
stable and endeavored to hang them upon
the FESTIVE Dobbin, with the result indi-
Gated. The above is a fact.-Lewiston

Adnlterating an AduIterant.

1t IS easy to get pure coffee by purchas-
ing the green bean and supervising the
roasting and grinding. Such product is
so totally different from the ground coffee
of commerce that most people would pro-
nounce 1t unpalatable and spurious. 1t is
a curious fact that the taste of most coffee
drinkers has been so cultivated that they
prefer coffee with chicory in it.
Therefore the curious result has hap
pened that although chicory was former
ly cheap, it is now sold at nearly the price
of coffee, and has itself become subject OF
adulteration. Among the substances used
to adulterate chicory are roasted wheat,
rye acorns, carrots. croats and oak bark
powder-New York Sun.
