Terrible Stuff, That Mexican Pulque.


81 had an experience in New Mexico
last summer, the frightful impress of
which hasn't yet been entirely effaced
from my mind" said Colonel Andrew
Campbell of Montgomery, Ala, at the
Lindell. 81 have large area of wild
land in the extreme southern part of
that territory, and went out there to
look after it. Mounted upon a bronco
and with faithful mosa mexican SER
vanO as my companion, l left the
Southern Pacific for long iaunt across
the burning sands to see my property.
Soon after we had emerged from the
vast barren stretch into the dense foli-
age of the Madalina canon, my Next
can servant uttered a piercing cry of
warning, and there, only five or six
feet in front of us, l saw huge Next
can lion crouched in the tall grass, his
lank sides throbbing with the Joyous
prospect of making fine meal of me.
Quick as flash l rested the muzzle of
my Winchester between the ears of my
bronco, took splendid aim at the vi
cious, hungry beast, and fred Through
the puff of smoke | saw the lion leap
backward like cat and fall to the earth.
My bullet had penetrated his brain, and
he was dead in two minutes.
My only thought was then TO get his
pelt to carry back to civilization as a
precious trophy. 1 dismounted and
was proceeding to skin my game when
my mosa again uttered one of his awful
cries and dashed down the canon.
Within two feet of where l was stand
ing | saw Shiny, green, lizard-shaped
reptile blinking his red eyes at me as
he lazily crawled toward me. 1t was
ella monster, the most terribly
poisonous reptile on the earth, from
whose bite men and beasts are said to
die instantly and their flesh to rot in an
hour. 1t is nee dless to say that L
sprang upon my mule with the utmost
alacrity, and got away from that spot,
leaving the liens hide on him.
"But my troubles were not yet at an
end. We had not proceeded two miles
further up the canon when we found
ourselves in the very midst of colony
of scorpions. There were literally mil
lions of them. They scampered up the
legs of my bronco, whipping them with
their tails and driving their stings
through the tough hide of the bronco's
legs until the little beast fairly groaned
with pain. 1t was impossible to fight
them off the mule, for had my own
welfare to look after, and was stung, 1
thought, thousand times before l got
through the colony. When we finally
reached point of safety the poor Mex
lean was almost maniac, and wasn't
much better. Good God, how 1 shud-
der now when 1 think of the indescrib-
able horrors of century that were
crowded into that three hours expe-
rience! 1 wouldn't 60 through it again
for all the land on earth. "-St. Louis
Globe Democrat.

Elevate Your Chest.

There is nothing easier to do than to
Btraighten round shoulders if one knows
how. We hear mothers continually tell
| ng their STOPPING sons and daughters,
Throw your shoulders back" or, "Sit
| up straight" and from the Intellectual
efforts made to obey we can see that it
8 next to impossible. But it is really
b very simple thing, and even COM
Portable thing, to do, when one once
learns that all that has to be done
Is to slightly raise the chest, and
the refractory shoulder-blades and
turving spine will fall into the proper
position. 1t is better, even, to pay no
attention 10 the back or shoulders, lest
|hey should be brought into an unnat-
lral stiffness, which is really injurious.
|If mothers and fathers would simply
leach their children to keep their chests
elevated, not too much. but slightly,
they would have no difficulty in de-
Eeloping a straight and erect body,
which is the first essential to fine
|physique.-DemoreSt'S Magazine.

Green Carnations.

The green carnations which are now
y be seen in the flower-shops of Paris
I nd London are dyed by putting the
= TENS of white carnations in an aqueous
olution of the aniline dye called mala-
' hite green. To facilitate the capillary
uction of the dye, the stem is slit here
Ind there with knife. AT the end of
Iwelve hours the petals are tinged with
Ereen, and longer immersion deepens
he tint. Lilac, narcissus, lilies and
bther white flowers can be tinted in the
anne way, and different colors may be
kiven by means of different dyes.
Eosin, for instance, yields pretty red,
Ind malachite green turns violet ane-
homes to blue. The process was dis
covered accidentally by a Partisan
lorist, and the results are certainly
pleasing to the eye; but there is some.
hing essentially false in this artificial
foloration which cannot be COM
nended.-CassepS Magazine.

A Great Mistake.

" Do not make such mistake as
have" said an elderly woman to a
younger friend, with much feeling.
When was first married my husband
and were so happy in each other that
we were Indifferent to outsiders. Then
the children came, and we were still
more devoted to our home and seldom
went into society, neither troubling our
selves TO make new friends nor to keep
up with the old. AS the children grew
they always kept the house full of life,
and we did not allow ourselves to think
that change must come some time.
But now the children are all married
and interested in homes of their own,
and my husbands death leaves me en-
tirely alone. l feel as if 1 hadn't a
friend, and 1 know it is all my own
fault. l do not deserve to have any
cne care for me now when / have been
30 neglectful of everybody all these
years. But 1 wish to warn all young
people against following my example,
and 1 should like to give them this
motto for life: Keep your friendships
bin constant repair"

Hiring a Cook.

Nothing whatever could induce me ever
again to try and live in the country during
the winter. 1t is too lonely, servants say.
On one occasion went myself to engage a
servant. / spoke to several, and answered
all of their questions with due humility.
At length the proprietor took hand to
help me out ooh" said he to one wom-
an, who was considering the matter, "it's
not in the real country; it's in a village,
just outside of So-and-so," naming quite a
large town seven miles from where | live.
"Ah, but it is in the country" remon-
strated as l did not wish to beguile wom-
an into going with me by false pretense.
This, think, rather inclined her TO look
upon me with favor, and she said, "Well,
l think will CO."
And after a brief pause, she asked,
"Have We gas in the houses" "Of course
not" l answered.; 1--WE live in the coun-
try" "Well, it's to no such forsaken
place that I'll CO." said she, and moved
away. There was a very forlorn looking
man sitting in the room. l had noticed
that he had had several unsuccessful inter-
views, and when my woman had gone
away after more than half concluding to
go with me, he smiled alphabetically at
me.
II wish my house in the country would
burn down." he said. 81 built the plagued
thing" he continued, land now have it
on my hands. l can't sell it, and can't
rent it, and can't afford to let it remain
closed, so l must live in it. l wish it
would catch fire." Before he could say
more he was obliged to resume his search
for a cook.-Hdrper's Bazaar.
