Society in Alaska.

Visitors to Sitka pronounce it not a
bad thing at all to be girl in Alaska
society-for girls are a long way above
par in the social swim. There are card
parties and receptions, there are teas
and dinners on the trig little gunboats,
with men to preside at the urn and
show how badly even the best of the
sex do the things woman does so
gracefully. There are balls in the Rus
sian castle on the hill, where in the old
days the Muscovite governors brought
their high-bred wives and held car
nival through the long Alaskan win
ters. Like the japanese, in case of
company. verybody borrows of every
body. The governors wife is served
from her own china at the captain 5
dinner, and the lieutenant's bride may
eat from her own wedding-spoons az
the paymaster's party, but there is less
strife and envy and all uncharita ble-
ness than in social circles at the great
centers of civilization, where every
body is striving to outdo everybody
else. st. Louis Globe-Democrat

hauled three loads to|his own house,

VERY DENSE.
The Woman From Out OF the West Tell
Story.

The Woman From Out OF the West Tells
Story.
It does not often happen that a good
joke furnishes material for a still
better one, but the following CONVEX
sation which took place between the
acts of Liberty Hall demonstrates
that the phenomenon occasionally does
occur.
Two women were seated in the or
chestra. From the sighting way in
which she spoke of Minneapolis it was
evident that one of the women came
from st. Paul. The other woman had
also originally come out of this west
This was proved by the avidity with
which she dcvoured all the home gossip
But, my dear, did you hear the
joke they had on Mrs. Clark" ex-
claimed the first woman. 20, it was
just terrible. You must have heard
about it, because it got in all the
comic papers. | think it just awful
the things they print in the papers
anyway. The story was this: When
Sir Edwin Arnold, the poet, came to
Minneapolis Mrs. Clark gave him a
big reception. There was a great crowd
there, and just in the midst of it Mrs.
Clark turned to Sir Edwin and said:
%. Sir Edwin, l have always wanted
to meet you so much. l can remember
how, when l was little mite of girl,
my dear old mother used to read your
Light of Asia out loud to me
"Well, Sir Edwin Arnold looked at
her for moment and then he said;
Why, my dear madam, had no idea
that you western ladies' matured SO
fast Well, that was the joke, you
see. 1t was splendid one. Mrs Clark
got BIZ copies of the paper that it came
out in. She nearly died of mortifca-
tion. But it just shows how ignorant
those Minneapolitsns are, anyhow"
The other woman received tho mar
rative with a blank countenance. But
where the joke comesin don't seq
why, my dear, you are very dense"
| cried the st. Paul woman. Sir Edwin
Arnold never wrote it at all. The
Light of Asia is something out of the
Old Testament"-NY, y, Sun.

MANAGING FURNACES.
Eight Good Rules to Observe In Control
ling the Heat.

ling the Heat.
The first thing to do is to get the
house thoroughly warmed. When it is
heated to the desired temperature, it
will require less coal to keep it warm
than if constantly cooling and heating.
There is more economy in filing the
frepot full of coal than in putting in
only a small amount, because that
burns away more readily.
Do not use poker on the top of the
fire. 1t is bad management in the use
of hard coal. The CRATE in the furnace
will remove the ashes and clinkcrs,
thus allowing free passage for air
through the fire.
In filing the furnace with coal the
smokepipe damper should be opened
and the ashpit door and slide closed,
otherwise the smoke and gas will be
forced out of the feed door.
When the rooms are heated, and there
is good fire in the furnace, shut il Up
as close as possible.
In the morning open all drafts, put
in small quantity of coal, let it burn
thoroughly, then add fuel until full.
Let it burn for short time for the gas
to be consumed before closing the
dampers.
If the furnace heats quick and strong
from good draft, so that in warm
weather there is too much heat, don I
shake the CRATE, but allow it to clog
with ashes-not under, but on top OF
the CRATE. Ashes then lessen combus-
ton.
Never shut off all the registers at
once. If it is desired to shut the regis
tiers, close those on the upper floors, as
when the lower rooms and halls are
heated the air finds its way to upper
rooms. Good housekeeping.

The JUICE OF THE POPPY.
Opium an Innocen. and Beneficial Stimu
liant When Used In Moderation.

Opium an InnocenU and Beneficial Stimu-
liant When Used In Moderation.
One of the most recent witnesses be-
fore the British royal commission on
the opium trade between India and
China, which is sitting in the house OF
lords, was Sir John Strachey, who has
passed forty years of his life in various
official positions in India He said that
it had been proved to demonstration
that opium was not a terrible poison.
The vast majority of those who con-
sumed opium consumed it in modera-
ton, and so consumed there was no
stimulant that entered largely into the
consumption of the world that was
more innocent or beneficial. 1t was as
innocent as the wines of France or
Italy were to the people of those coun-
tries, or as undoctored beer was to the
people of England or Germany. In
India there were $50, 900, 900 inha bitants
and many countries. In some of these
countries the people have from time
immemorial consumed opium. But
these classes constituted numerically
an absolutely insignificant proportion
of the population of India. The con-
sumption of opium was so infinitesi-
mally small that he might say without
exaggeration that no opium question
existed at all.
1t was declared that the consump-
ton of opium had been rapidly in
creasing, and had been fostered by the
British government. These statements
were absolutely baseless. The increase
of population under British rule had
been enormous, but there was every
reason to believe that the consump-
ton of opium in India under native
rule one hundred and fifty years ago
was greater than at present. 1t was
an indisputable fact that those who
consumed opium, especially the Raj
puts and Sikhs, were precisely the
finest races physically in India There
was no more vigorous, manly, and
handsome race of men in the world
than the crack opium-using Sikh regi-
ments, among whom the practice was
universal. People talked glibly with
out suppressing opium consumption in
India but he would not like to see an
attempt made to deprive the Silkhs and
Rajputs of one of the innocent and
beneficial necessaries of their lives.
Sir William Hunter mad said that such
law could only be enforced in British
territories by bloodshed and arms,
while in native states it could not be
enforced at all.
With regard to the Chinese part of
the question, there could be no greater
delusion than to suppose that China
depended upon India for her supply of
opium. If no opium were exported
from India the consumption of China
would remain practically unchanged
A single province of China produced
more opium than the whole Indian
empire. Whole provinces were covered
with the poppy, and the cultivation
went on increasing without interfer-
ence on the part of the government of
China. Even, therefore, if it were true
that the people of China were being
ruined by opium, the cessation of i'm
ports from India would not diminish
the evil-Chicago Times
