Youth and Age.

Philadelphia Times: - The old
American way of putting young peo
pie on their honor and taking it fol
granted that they would do every.
thing that was right certainly i'm
piled a much nobler view of human
nature thar the present mode oi
strict chaperonage. When We are
in the heyday of youth full of spirits
and gayety, and believing implicitly
in the virtue and good intentions Of
everyone around US, the institution
Of chaperonage seems q very odious
and unnecessary restraint on liberty
But, how different does the whole
subject look when viewed through
the spectacles of more mature age
The belief in universal virtue has
long since vanished with other social
illusions in society at least. Not on
ly do people feel that mankind IN
general will bear watching, but most
Of them have grown a shade more
as well as q shade less hope
ful with advancing years.

A Virginia Dog Law.

Some Virginia farmers make dog
law and live up to it in their farm
practice and with the full knowledge
of their neighSors. One Of these
who keeps dogs himself agrees that
anybody who finds his dogs off his
farm and alone my kill them aud
that he shall kill any dogs that he
may find wandering alone on his
farm. Another has standing bar
gain with his hired man to pay a
bounty of fifty cents on dog scalps
killed on his farm. This gentleman
has pair of bull dogs that kill ev-
cry strange dog they find alone on
the farm. He says they make quick
and sure work with every dog they
take hold Of.
Another very enterprising, court
eous, reasonable sheep-raiser shoots
every dog that prowls around his
premises day or night. He makes it
rule to get the dogs before they
get his sheep, and thus avoids the
losses and annoyances formerly and
usually experienced. Another large
sheep raiser has a shepherd with his
focks during the day, and keeps
them at night in a yard inclo7ed in
wire picket fence five feet high,
which is dog proof S,me sheep

All About Pensions.

THERE was lively tilt in Congress-
last Thursday, over the pension
question.
Democratic Congressman Turpir
of Alabama, asked a Republican
member from Massachusetts wheth
er he was aware of the fact, "that
there now stood upon the pension
rolls an e1-soldier who Was drawing
a pension OF SO month for tots
deafness, who was receiving salary
of $500 a year, and who WAS en-
ployed at the telephone. Uaugh'
ter) Now if any gentleman wanted
to know the name of this gentleman
he could tell it.
Name him, name him." came in 9
chorus.
His name is William E. Davis,
said Turpin.
81 do not believe your statement
unless you prove it." shouted Mr.
Waugh Rep), of Indiana.
Turpin walked down the aisle and
struck at Waugh, but did not hit
him. Great excitement prevailed
quite awhile, but the pension ques
ton still is unsettled.

Lubrication.

A handsome, clear skinned woman
of fifty, who might have passed fol
twenty years less than her age, when
inquired Of al to her methods oi
preservation replied promptly, Ilu
bricate, that's all; just lubricate as
the old Greeks did" To the ques
ton, "What do you use," this mod
ern follower of the ancient custom
replied: "G'ycsrine, olive oil and
vaseline. you'll have to expert
ment and see what suits YOU as I did.
So the list WAS tried. Glycerine dill
uted with ross water proved excel
lent for the hands and face, as well
as for cleansing the scalp; olive oil
was good to rub into the skin after a
plunge, and vsseline on the street af.
ter a pilgrimage rendered them as
supple as the psalmist's.
Then came the masseuse with her
added information, her movements,
and ''percussions" Il use cocoanut
OIL she said, and it Was found to be
just the thing-clean, fragrant, easi-
ly absorbed, leaving no trace in gar
ments coming in contact with it.
Try it, you who are $50 tired that
you ache from head to foot 1t
looks liks an exertion, but rest as
sured that the refreshing oil does
half the rubbing, and sinking into
dry, fevered skin and stiffsned joints
revives and strengthens the rubber,
so that the finishing off is done with
n flourish. If the back of the neck
and houlders are lame from bend
ing over sewing or writing, a rub
with cocoanut oil makes them as
good as new. And there ia nothing
better for that painful result of sit
ting in a draft-a stiff neck.
